Chapter 1789
Survival Game 7
The Liu family continued their investigation along the line of Liu Yan, hoping to find out the whereabouts of their missing sister, Liu.
However, all they found was that Liu Yan was abandoned at the entrance of the orphanage, but there were no security cameras at the entrance of the orphanage, so they couldn't find out who abandoned her.
The trail went cold here.
The Liu family was very unwilling to accept this.
Liu Xue was also unwilling to accept this.
When she realized that Grandpa Liu and the others had noticed Liu Yan, she stopped her carefully maintained manicure.
However, this was a situation she had anticipated.
After calming down her displeasure, Liu Xue gave a cold laugh.
So what if the Liu family notices Liu Yan?
They were destined to be unable to bring Liu Yan back to the Liu family.
Liu Yan will definitely die on the deserted island.
In another city, the Cheng family members also gathered together to watch the live stream.
One side of the screen displays comments from netizens.
Many netizens talked about Cheng Xu, feeling that this guy was really unlucky.
First, he was slandered and smeared, making it impossible for him to survive in the entertainment industry.
In order to turn his life around, he had no choice but to participate in a survival challenge program.
He had barely joined the production team when his scandals were cleared up, but little did he know that the production team was a cannibalistic place, and now he was facing more than thirty ruthless murderers...
What luck...
Many of Cheng Xu's rivals in the industry who were at odds with him now genuinely sympathize with him.
Cheng Xu had no idea what these people were thinking; he just stared longingly at Liu Yan and Liu Dong.
These two are experts. With them around, those bandits shouldn't be a problem... right?
Cheng Xu asked in a low voice, "Master, Uncle-Master, can you catch bullets with your bare hands?"
He had seen a movie where the villain, who traveled from ancient times to the present, could catch bullets with his bare hands, was not afraid of the Flying Tigers, and easily overwhelmed the Flying Tigers who were armed with modern firearms.
Liu Yan: "I haven't tried it, so I don't know."
Liu Tong: "Not yet, we can only dodge bullets."
That's already quite an achievement!
Cheng Xu looked at Liu Dong with admiration, then at Liu Yan beside him.
Yes, my own master is also very impressive.
The chubby boy muttered to himself, "I really have good taste. I spotted Master and Uncle at a glance and managed to latch onto their powerful backers!"
Cheng Xu reached out and patted the chubby boy on the shoulder: "In some ways, you're pretty good too."
Because of the skills displayed by Liu Dong and Liu Yan, the contestants regarded them as their backbone.
Liu Tong: "Now that we know there are people lurking in the shadows, we can no longer split up; we need to unite. There's strength in numbers. Even if we can't kill those people, at least we can save our lives by helping each other."
Liu Tong: "We must believe that the police will find us."
After hearing Liu Dong's words, everyone felt a little relieved and their previous despair subsided.
At least there's still hope, right?
"What should we do with these two people?" one contestant asked.
Liu Yan and Liu Dong looked embarrassed.
Liu Dong was faking it, but Liu Yan was genuinely in a difficult position.
He knew these two were murderers, but if he let them live, who knew if they would escape and come back to kill everyone?
However, children raised in a society governed by the rule of law would not want to kill.
Others shared the same thought as Liu Yan.
Moreover, even if some of them harbored murderous intent, they dared not make a move.
No one dared to kill.
Liu Tong: "Tie them to the tree, give them some food and water every day to keep them alive. When the police find us, we'll hand them over to them." The group accepted the suggestion and tied the two burly men to the tree.
Next, under Liu Dong's leadership, the group built a campsite.
There wasn't much to repair; materials were limited, so the group simply built a makeshift tent for sleeping.
However, the location of their camp was excellent, situated at the angle between two mountains, with mountain walls on both sides and guards on the other two sides, ensuring a certain level of safety.
Liu Dong led the group to dig many deep pits on both sides and set up traps.
If someone approaches the camp at night, the traps will be very effective.
Two watermelon knives were assigned to two contestants who possessed some fighting skills, and consequently, their responsibilities were greater than those of the others.
At night, they had to take turns keeping watch with Liu Dong and Liu Yan.
None of the contestants slept well that night.
Sure enough, in the middle of the night, someone tried to sneak into the camp.
As a result, the person fell into the deep pit, twisted his ankle, and couldn't climb out.
At that time, Liu Dong, Cheng Xu, and another person, Yuan Xunyi, who was holding a watermelon knife, were on night watch.
Liu Dong was multitasking, cultivating while keeping an eye on her surroundings.
Cheng Xu couldn't multitask; he and Yuan Xunyi kept yawning and getting drowsy.
Upon hearing the sound, Liu Dong woke the two men and told them to stay put and be on guard. He then walked towards the trap and saw the creature inside.
There was a knife lying next to the guy, with bloodstains on it.
Liu Tong knew what this person had done just by seeing the blood.
The two people we caught earlier have probably already been killed by this person.
He really is a desperate criminal, even killing his own companions.
A hint of murderous intent flashed in Liu Tong's eyes.
Liu Dong can make a move without anyone noticing; even surveillance cameras won't be able to capture his actions.
When Liu Dong returned to the camp, Cheng Xu hurriedly asked, "How did it go?"
Liu Tong: "Someone fell into a trap. He was unlucky; his head hit a sharp rock, and his brains spilled out. He's beyond saving!"
When Cheng Xu and Yuan Xunyi heard that someone had died, they both breathed a sigh of relief and felt a sense of satisfaction.
They don't kill people, but they wish all the bad guys would die.
They are only safe when the bad guys are dead.
The next day, the group buried the man's body along with the bodies of the other two people.
Everyone was shocked by the man's ruthlessness, killing even his own companion, and therefore they were very glad that he was dead.
Those watching the live stream were relieved that the person had died.
After all, keeping such a ruthless person around would be a threat to the players.
Many people sent comments supporting the players' killings, and some even consulted lawyers to ask if the players' killings constituted legitimate self-defense and were not illegal.
The lawyer's answer was yes.
In fact, Guo Jia had already thought it all out. After bringing these contestants back, he would send the best psychologists to provide them with psychological counseling and would not pursue their responsibility for the murders, since they were only forced to save their lives.
Now, seeing those wicked people killing each other, and then having bad luck and falling to their deaths, the relevant authorities are happy for the contestants.
But they also knew that the athletes couldn't stay clean forever; their hands would inevitably be stained with blood later on.
Hopefully, they are mentally resilient enough not to break down before they are found.
Those villains must have been dropped onto the island at night, and everyone was safe during the day.
The group then set up several more traps near the camp, waiting for nightfall.
That night, the number of people on watch doubled. (End of Chapter)
