The next day was the final day.

Everyone got up very early, then spontaneously gathered in the courtyard, looked at each other, and saw vigilance in each other’s eyes.

The director said: “Today we have to complete a task. The assassin and his organization have arranged a mysterious formation in the town. Once activated at night, the entire town will be harmed by the spells. However, there’s a way to solve this formation. According to legend, in a distant dynasty, the Peach Blossom Immortal left fragments of the holy beast in our town to protect the safety of the town. As long as everyone finds all the fragments and puts them together, the town can be protected and the assassin will be found out! Good luck!”

Everyone echoed and applauded.

“Of course, as long as you don’t find everything before the night comes, or if you are all killed by the assassin in advance, the formation will still be activated.” The director said: “So everyone must work hard!”

Shen Xingchen has a sense of variety and is full of energy: ” Alright, find the assassin and protect the town!”

Shen Xingsui was next to him, so he was infected by this energy and gradually integrated into the plot. “Find the assassin!”

Ning Ze stretched out his hand and said, “Come on.”

The guests formed a group, everyone stretched out one hand, while the other was folded behind their body. They shouted the slogan in unison, “Find the killer, protect the prince, and save the town!”

Seeing that today’s the final day, the audience was starting to feeling the atmosphere of the “final”:

[My dinner reality show is coming to an end.]

[Especially the idols in the boy group, from the survival show to the present, I really watched them grow up…]

[It’s coming to an end all of a sudden, so sad.]

[But fortunately, they are all celebs. We can often see them in the future!]   Woohoo, yes,

The guests discussed about all they know. While no one (besides Fu Jinxiao) had guessed their identity, it was still a danger to them. In the end, they agreed on being separated so it’s harder for the assassin to poison them all.

Shen Xingsui wandered around the small town by himself, and when he passed by a restaurant in the town, the waiter at the door greeted him, “Hi Suisui.”

Shen Xingsui smiled, “Hello.”

“Where are you going?”

“Uhm… I’m looking for something.”

The waiter casually said, “If you are looking for something, you can worship our Peach Blossom Immortal, so will be lucky.”

Shen Xingsui’s eyes lit up, and asked, “Where should I be praying?”

The waiter pointed at the restaurant, “We have the shrine in our restaurant, do you want to pay respect?”

Of course Shen Xingsui agreed. “Yes, yes!”

The waiter’s words also reminded him, since the director said the Peach Blossom Immortal hid the treasure, he might have found a clue if he go worship the said Immortal. He entered the restaurant and went to the second floor, and he saw a statue of the Peach Blossom Immortal.

Shen Xingsui bowed sincerely in front of the statue, and after he got up to burn incense, he glanced at the desk next to him and found that there seemed to be something wrong, he stretched out his hand enough, and actually touched a token!

“No way…” Shen Xingsui smiled, “I’m  so lucky.”

This token was engraved with the big star of the program group, and it could be opened. After taking it apart, Shen Xingsui found a corner of the treasure inside. It was a fragment of something alongside a hint card. However, there’s no text written on the hint card, just peach peach blossom patterns.

Shen Xingsui was puzzled, “What does this mean?”

He didn’t quite understand.

The waiter at the back said, “Could it mean the peach blossom forest? There is a peach blossom forest in our back mountain, although it’s not the season of it to bloom.”

Shen Xingsui responded, “It is possible, then I will go and see.”

He picked up the sign and was about to walk towards the peach blossom forest. Just as he was walking, Anran entered the restaurant, and he asked, “Hello, has anyone been here just now?”

The waiter said a little vigilantly, “What do you want?”

Anran hurriedly said: “I have something to do with that person, please tell me quickly.”

“He went there.” The waiter just pointed to a random direction, “As of where is he going… I don’t know.”

Anran nodded. “Okay.”

Facing the camera, Anran smiled, he put away the card he got from another place, and then said to the camera, “It’s basically confirmed that Suisui is the prince, so we are going to find him now.”

The audience in the live broadcast room were very confused:

[Ranran is the assassin, then?]

[Ahhh, although I logically knew this is just a game setting of the show, I still feel sorry for Suisui.]

[Wuwu, can you stop doing it?]

[Come one, this is just a game, Ranran isn’t a killer in the real life. Now after remembering

On the other side–

Shen Xingsui came to the peach blossom forest and found that it was still beautiful despite none of the flower was in full bloom. There was also a tower, and there were staff at the door. At first glance, this tower must be a hidden mission location.

“Hello.” Shen Xingsui walked over quickly and said politely, “Can I go up this tower?”

The staff nodded and said, “You can.”

Shen Xingsui smiled and said, “Okay, thank you.”

He quickly ran to the top of the tower, bypassed the layers of stairs, and found that there were several rooms at the highest floor. There might be something in them. He opened the door and searched. There was nothing in the room on the left. Then, he found out something in the middle room – a cabinet with a diary hidden inside the drawer!

Shen Xingsui opened the diary and saw the story about the manor written in immature handwriting. He said to the cameraman, “This seems to be the assassin’s diary.”

After turning a few pages, Shen Xingsui noticed a piece of paper tucked inside the pages, and it said:

[My younger brother and I depend on each other for life, but didi is too weak. I am worried that he will not be able to survive.]

Younger brother?

Then the killer wasn’t the only child.

Shen Xingsui’s hand holding the diary was a little trembling, and he said to the cameraman,  “So Fu-ge‘s innocence can be cleared up, and this assassin may really have a helper.”

Just as Shen Xingsui was about to turn around and leave the room, but there was some movement outside. As soon as he turned around, he met Anran’s eyes. Anran, who was standing at the door, found the note in Shen Xingsui’s hand, and took a deep breath, “I was discovered by you.”

Shen Xingsui closed the notes and said, “You’re the assassin, right?”

“It’s meaningless to say that now.” Anran said to Shen Xingsui: “Suisui, I’m sorry!”

“Bang Bang”

The door was closed from the outside.

Not only that, Anran seemed to have locked it, he said: “Suisui, this is the room I used as the “young master”. If you were in other places, I might really have no choice. I have the key to this room, so please stay inside, and I will let you out after dark!”

Shen Xingsui rushed over, “Anran!”

Anran outside the door seemed to have done something wrong. He ran away directly, leaving behind Shen Xingsui and the cameraman staring wide-eyed.

The live broadcast room was also blown up:

[Oh my god, Anran is a thief.]

[Hahahaha, he really can play. Isn’t he usually all-angelic like?]

[What about Suisui?]

[You’re locking him up for the day? Are you kidding me! How about his food and drink? Plus, this room is too stuffy, it’s too hot inside!]

Shen Xingsui in the house was in a bad mood, but the more urgent the situation was, the calmer he became. After taking a deep breath, he didn’t choose to slap on the door meaninglessly, but opened the window immediately, and then began to look for something in the house that he could use.

The cameraman was worried. “It’s useless for you to jump out of the window, it’s very high here.”

“…I didn’t want to jump out of the window.” Shen Xingsui said helplessly, “Help me find out if there is any brighter color in this room. We will hang then on the window. This is a tower, and there might be other people who come here. As long as they see our signal, we will be saved.”

The photographer’s eyes lit up. “Smart.”

As a result, the two of them searched for a long time but found nothing.

Shen Xingsui was a little tired. He took a deep breath and looked at the cameraman’s yellow vest. He stared at him with a thoughtful expression.

The cameraman took a step back: “You, what are you doing?”

Shen Xingsui smiled and said, “Cameraman-ge, please help…”

The cameraman wanted to cry but had no tears.

The audience in the live broadcast room were very depressed at first, but they laughed again when they saw this:

[Hahahaha, don’t come here, don’t come here! Suisui, the look in your eyes are so funny.]

[Suisui is very optimistic, isn’t he? He’s very calm even during this kind of crisis.]

[Ahh I agree on that.]

[Looking at it now, he must be a the kind of person who won’t sit down and wait for his death.]

Meanwhile,

Anran came out of the tower, all he could think about was how to reconcile with his inner feelings of sheer excitement – he managed to trap Shen Xingsui! Now, all he needed to do was to pick the guests off one by one.

However, he suddenly met someone head-on, and this person also was the last person Anran wanted to meet right now.

They said enemies will meet on a narrow road, but Fu Jinxiao isn’t someone he wanted to be his enemy.

Anran lowered his head and walked forward, but a voice slowly came from beside him, “Stop.” Fu Jinxiao looked down at him and raised his eyebrows, “Where are you going?”

“I’m going to find that treasure fragment. “Anran smiled. “Fu-ge, you don’t have to go to the tower, I have already looked for it.”

Fu Jinxiao: “Really?”

Anran nodded.

Seeing that he was far away from him, Fu Jinxiao walked over and approached him step by step, and casually asked, “Where’s Shen Xingsui, have you see him?”

Anran was taken aback, then smiled awkwardly. “No, I haven’t see him at all.”

Fu Jinxiao curled his lips, “Really?”

“Yes, and Fu-ge, you’d better stay away from Shen Xingsui. I just got a card, and that card said that the assassin has a younger brother in his early twenties. So, that could only be him, the younger brother of the assassin. Uou must be careful, although I’m not sure yet…” Anran continued to step back and try to run away.

There was an arch in this path, and he has to go through the arch to get out. Just when Anran was about to reach the arch, he was blocked by a leg.

Fu Jinxiao stepped on the door wall with his slender legs, his speed was shockingly fast, Anran didn’t even know when he was behind him. Fu Jinxiao himself was neither blushing nor panting, and even had a relaxed expression on his face. “I’m not sure, aren’t you the assassin?”

Anran was worried, and hesitated, “What do you mean by…?

“Have anyone said to you that your acting skills are poor?”

Anran’s face turned pale. “What evidence do you have?”

He was sure that he was flawless, and the hints on the task card were so hidden, how did Fu Jinxiao know?

Fu Jinxiao said softly, “Yesterday I told you that there were books in the attic of the manor that recorded your information, but we couldn’t find which one. I went to the attic just now and found that those books were all destroyed.”

Anran said, “How can you be sure that I’m the one who did it? After all, you told Shen Xingchen and the others too.”

Fu Jinxiao smiled as if this was just a casual conversation. “But the place I told them is not the attic, but the study on the second floor. Well, shall I check if some of the books on the second floor are intact?”

Anran’s face turned pale in an instant.

He always thought that everything was under his control, but he didn’t expect that he would still be played!

Fu Jinxiao raised his eyebrows. “Yesterday, I suspected that the hint card you got was different from ours. Our hint card is the identity of the assassins, while yours is the clue about the identity of the prince.”

Anran stared Fu Jinxiao wide eyes, a little frightened by this man’s intelligence.

The corner of Fu Jinxiao’s mouth twitched into an eerie smile. “That’s why I asked to see your card, and the fact that you are really afraid of me seeing the card has strengthened my guess.”

Anran was speechless as to how to deny it. He simply told the truth, “…I, my task card is indeed different from yours.”

“Well, so you guessed the identity of the prince, right?” Fu Jinxiao took a step forward. The man was tall and oppressive. Although he had a kind smile on his face, it made people feel cornered by a dangerous hunter. When he reached the feeling of a dead end, he lowered his head and his voice was much lower, “So what about the prince?”

Anran was really scared for a moment.

But he still wanted to struggle, so he bullshited, “Actually, you can cooperate with me. I only need to poison two more guards, while you just need to find the fragment. In this way, we will win together, right?”

“Who told you it’s the same?” Fu Jinxiao stood in front of him. His handsome face felt frighteningly cold, his eyes were deep. The distance between the two of them was not far, but it was enough to prevent the third person from hearing the conversation.

Anran heard Fu Jinxiao’s cold voice, laced with hidden threats.

“You dare to try bully him?”
