Chapter 19 Ambiguous Stealth

The recording of this reality show alone took nearly five hours, from seven o'clock to twelve o'clock in the evening, the entire show crew was expecting them to come out soon, so when Zhou Ziheng opened the door, the audience was there. Almost everyone outside was cheering.

Ruan Xiao and Cen Chen followed closely behind him, and when they came out, they were also sprayed with ribbons by the staff waiting outside the door.

"So did we win or lose?" Cen Chen with a streamer on his head looked at Ruan Xiao with a confused expression.

Ruan Xiao smiled and lay on Cen Chen's shoulder, "We came out second, and the points are still very high."

Cen Chen looked shocked, "So Ziheng isn't a killer?"

Standing next to him, Xia Xiqing laughed and joked, "It's me."

Cen Chen looked at Xia Xiqing again with a shocked expression. Ruan Xiao pushed Xia Xiqing, "Don't tease Sister Cen Chen."

This push didn't matter, it just happened to push Xia Xiqing into Zhou Ziheng's arms, who was standing at the back. He subconsciously responded by reaching out and grabbing Xia Xiqing's arm from behind, supporting him.

The tips of his hair brushed lightly over Zhou Ziheng's chin, itching.

Xia Xiqing didn't expect Ruan Xiaoneng to push him down. The moment he was caught by Zhou Ziheng, he looked back at him unexpectedly. After his eyes met, he quickly regained his composure and said softly, "Thank you."

This sentence swept across like that inadvertent hair tip, Xia Xiqing took the initiative to back away a little distance, and then continued joking as if nothing had happened, "Ruan Xiao, I really don't see that you are beyond ordinary in your strange power and confusion. Talent."

"Would I say that I entered Mensa with great strength?" Ruan Xiao stretched, "I was nervous all the time in it, but now I feel so hungry when I relax."

Cen Chen agreed, "Me too, I feel tired and hungry, I didn't feel that before."

Zhou Ziheng made a rare suggestion, "Let's have a late-night snack after work."

"Okay." Ruan Xiao grabbed Cen Chen, "Let's go together, I want to eat hot pot."

Everyone was talking about the choice of supper, only Xia Xiqing felt that something was wrong. His eyes swept over the few people present, then looked inside the door, and finally asked, "Wait a minute... Where's Si Rui?"

"Si Rui..." Ruan Xiao just remembered, "Ah! Si Rui was calling from the study just now..."

The cheers were too loud, overshadowing Shang Sirui's cry for help.

When everyone finally arrived at the study, Shang Sirui had given up calling for help, leaned his head back on the chair and looked at the ceiling, and when he heard the sound of the study door opening, he suddenly sat up, "You finally remember me. !"

Several people laughed together, Zhou Ziheng also wanted to laugh, but now the laughing words are too inhuman, so he had no choice but to walk over to help Shang Sirui untie the rope on his body.

"No, Ziheng, you're too serious." Shang Sirui, who was sitting on the chair, began to complain to him, "It's okay to be handcuffed, and I'm still tied with a rope."

"As soon as we entered this room." Zhou Ziheng rolled the rope and threw it aside. Looking at the handcuffs around his wrist, he remembered that he didn't have the key. He was about to get up when he saw a hand handing over the key. to his own eyes.

As soon as Zhou Ziheng raised his hand, he saw Xia Xiqing's clean and simple smiling face.

It just looked clean and simple, he denied it again in his heart, and then took the key from Xia Xiqing's hand.

"He wasn't handcuffed when he came in." Xia Xiqing smiled, "Only I was handcuffed, worse than you, and my eyes were covered."

"Wow... It's too difficult for you to escape."

Shang Sirui and Xia Xiqing were chatting, and Zhou Ziheng, who was half-squatting, said nothing, and he loosened the handcuffs, which reminded him of the way he loosened the handcuffs for Xia Xiqing before. Shang Sirui's hands are also pretty, but to be honest, they are not as long as Xia Xiqing's, and they don't seem to be as white as his.

Why compare?

With a click, the handcuffs were released. Zhou Ziheng regained his senses.

What is there to compare.

Shang Sirui, who was unshackled, jumped a few times with ease, wrapping Xia Xiqing's shoulder with one hand, and the other hand holding Zhou Ziheng's shoulder very reluctantly, "It's finally over." Several staff members stepped forward to help They took off the microphone from their bodies, Xia Xiqing suddenly felt relaxed, raised his hand and rubbed his neck, and saw a ribbon on the back of Zhou Ziheng's neck that had not been removed before.

He stretched out his hand.

"What are you doing?" Zhou Ziheng suddenly felt a chill, and when he turned around, he saw Xia Xiqing's hand stretched out to his neck.

Like a little tiger with bristles. Xia Xiqing smirked and said sorry, then took off the ribbon.

There's nothing to be embarrassed about, he just deliberately wanted to touch him with the strength of the streamer, and it was intentional.

The slender fingers held one end of the ribbon, swayed it in front of Zhou Ziheng, let go, and let the ribbon slowly fall like a feather, and finally lay down at his feet.

The color of the ribbon is very eye-catching. Just like the smile on Xia Xiqing's face at this moment.

Zhou Ziheng was awkward for a long time, but he still said thank you.

"you are welcome."

Why is the end of this person's speech always so light? Like a frivolous cloud lying in the wind, unable to catch it.

The director of the program group came over, "We'll record a post after the end later," he handed one of the cameras in his hand to Sirui and the other to Cen Chen, "There are two machines here, you can Take two teams to visit the house, it took our production team two and a half days to build.”

"Don't worry, Director, I just want to go shopping too." Shang Sirui took the camera with a smile, held it in his hand and aimed it at Zhou Ziheng's face, "Is it already on?"

"It's open." The director said and walked aside. Seeing that Zhou Ziheng was going to hide from the camera, Shang Sirui immediately grabbed him, turned the camera to his face, and coughed twice, "Hello everyone, I'm today's VJ and host, Shang Sirui, a member of HighFive. Hi~~ Let me introduce you below, Dangdangdang-" He turned the camera to Zhou Ziheng's face, "Zhou Ziheng! Wow Ziheng, your face looks so good in the camera."

Zhou Ziheng jokingly covered the camera with his palm, Shang Sirui struggled to get the camera out of his clutches, and turned to Xia Xiqing, "This is our super smart Xia Xiqing, his performance in the secret room is really stunned. Me, if it wasn't for Xi Qing, maybe I would have won."

"So you're expressing dissatisfaction?" Xia Xiqing smiled softly, "You're also stunned by your performance, okay?"

"Hehe." Shang Sirui held the camera and turned around, aiming at the entrance of the house, "Let's take a look first."

After the recording, Shang Sirui was like a child who was beaten with blood, walking around with the camera, Zhou Ziheng and Xia Xiqing walking behind him, and only said a few words when the cue came.

When he walked to the study, Shang Sirui was very excited, "It's here that I was imprisoned by Ziheng! He chained me up and tied me!" His camera turned to Zhou Ziheng, "It's this handsome guy, he kidnapped me."

"Pfft." Xia Xiqing couldn't help laughing. Zhou Ziheng, who was slapped on the face by Shang Sirui with the camera, said calmly, "Who told you to lie."

"That's what the show team forced me to do. I'm panicking, okay?" Shang Sirui was a little curious, "By the way, how did you find the last password? I searched for a long time and couldn't find it."

"It's this room." Zhou Ziheng took out a flashlight from his coat pocket, "This flashlight I found on the sofa has two key words written on the clue, study and turn off the lights..."

Before Zhou Ziheng could finish his words, Shang Sirui, who reacted too quickly, stretched out his free hand to press the switch of the light at the door, "Is it a clue that you can only see when the light is turned off?"

His hand was caught.

"Don't turn off the lights!"

Xia Xiqing was stunned for a while. He didn't even react to turning off the lights. He saw Zhou Ziheng grab Shang Sirui's arm without hesitation, preventing him from moving.

"What's wrong?" Shang Sirui looked at Zhou Ziheng with a puzzled expression.

To be honest, Zhou Ziheng didn't expect that he would actually stop him like this. Those words were almost blurted out without any thought process.

"What he means is, the machine is shooting, this should not be shot by infrared..." Xia Xiqing calmly held Zhou Ziheng's wrist, the protruding wrist bone that exposed the cuff, and took his hand. Come down, "Yeah."

"Yeah." Zhou Ziheng quietly freed his hand from Xia Xiqing's hand, "Let me tell you directly, after turning off the light, use this flashlight to illuminate the four corners of the wall, and a digital code will appear, and it's enough to crack one. "

"Is that so..." Shang Sirui nodded with a vague understanding, and then sighed with some regret, "I feel like I'm missing a clue! Otherwise, I'll be the one who wins, I'm so angry."

After filming the last room, the three of them came to the underground passage connected to the exit seat. This passage directly connected to the external recording preparation area. The passage is very narrow, and Zhou Ziheng walked with difficulty.

Fortunately, there is a light, otherwise he just fell...

fine? Why is it okay.

Zhou Ziheng thought it was very strange. He was becoming more and more confused about himself now. It seemed that a villain had been forced into his head.

Shang Sirui walked in front alone, walking very fast, and said the conclusion of the tidbits to the camera. Xia Xiqing followed Zhou Ziheng, very close.

The long and narrow corridor compresses the space together with the breath, and the air around the body seems to turn into tiny particles suspended around the body one by one, fluttering like plankton.

Suddenly feeling that the clothes on his back were caught, Zhou Ziheng turned slightly sideways. Xia Xiqing didn't expect this difficult guy to turn around so obediently. The moment he grabbed the hem of his clothes, he took a step closer and wanted to speak.

Just like that, the distance compresses sharply again.

In the field of vision, the small mole on the tip of the nose suddenly enlarged, approached, briefly touched the corner of Zhou Ziheng's lips, then slid past like a shooting star, then moved away.

Those tiny particles floating like glowing jellyfish suddenly stopped.

Air condenses.

In the not-so-bright corridor, Shang Sirui's childish words seemed to fade away in the background, while another voice gradually intensified.

thump—

thumping—

Zhou Ziheng came back to his senses in a panic, and just wanted to step back in a hurry, but he forgot that the place was so narrow that he couldn't allow his 193 cm height to walk around at will.

"Hey, be careful." Xia Xiqing watched Zhou Ziheng's head hit the upper end of the aisle. He was trying to catch him but failed. When he panicked, Zhou Ziheng's foot slipped again, and he fell to the ground.

Those tiny particles that were originally tense and still and invisible to others also fell rapidly, like a large jar of pearl candy falling from the sky, tinkling on Zhou Ziheng's body.

Zhou Ziheng shook his head, trying to throw the illusion in front of him out of sight.

Really embarrassed to the extreme.

Hearing the movement from behind, Shang Sirui shouted towards him, "What's the matter with you?"

Xia Xiqing responded immediately, "It's okay, Ziheng accidentally fell. You go up first."

After speaking, he stretched out a hand towards Zhou Ziheng.

Zhou Ziheng didn't even look at those hands. He stood up and patted the dust on his body embarrassingly. When he turned around, he felt a pain in his tailbone, so he had to walk slowly while leaning against the wall.

"It's alright."

"fine."

"Pfft." Another chuckle.

Zhou Ziheng felt uncomfortable in his heart, and seemed to be underestimated. He wanted to get rid of this awkward atmosphere as soon as possible and diverted from this disgraceful topic, so he coughed twice, turned his back to Xia Xiqing and asked, "You...you What did you just say?"

"Do you still remember?" Xia Xiqing's tone was the same as before, soft and frivolous like the wind, which could stir people's hearts upside down.

"Are you going to say it or not?"

The tone is quite fierce, and the tips of his ears are obviously red.

"I just wanted to ask... how did you recognize me." Xia Xiqing stepped on the path that Zhou Ziheng walked, stepping on his shadow, "It was after I entered the study where the lights were turned off."

Zhou Ziheng suddenly stopped talking and was about to go out. He went up the steps in silence.

As a love veteran, Xia Xiqing is well versed in the words and techniques that should be mastered when provoking. If the other party doesn't speak, he can always keep the topic from getting into an awkward situation.

"I guess... it's because of the smell of perfume?" Xia Xiqing laughed, and followed step by step up the steps, "So you are so sensitive to smells?"

Zhou Ziheng still didn't speak.

He climbed the last step, the air was noisy again, the staff were talking to each other about their hard work, everyone celebrated the success of the recording of the first episode, the voices of Shang Sirui and Cen Chen complaining to each other, Ruan Xiao's sweet laughter , there are a lot of mixed voices.

Mixed with it, there is also Zhou Ziheng's low tone.

"I subconsciously thought it was you."

When got close to you and grabbed your hand, smelled the perfume on body, so became more convinced.

Xia Xiqing's last step stayed in the air for a second, froze together with his paused brain.

subconsciously...

Falling to the ground, stepping on the last step. Xia Xiqing looked up at Zhou Ziheng's back. I'm afraid this person doesn't know it himself, this is unconsciously ambiguous.

How lethal.
