Chapter 62: Dejected
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Zhou Guang was a little impatient. “The young one’s just left and then the old one comes. It seems like the warning we gave them earlier isn’t enough.”
“Some people just don’t learn from their mistakes. No matter how many times you teach them, they’ll never learn to be smart.” Yan Ruo’s gaze turned cold, and he looked at Zhao Yuan with an unfriendly expression.
Bai Lin did not know that they had warned Zhao Yuan and the others behind her back to not disturb her.
She did not quite understand the riddles the two men were talking about, but she thought they made sense. She nodded. “There’s something wrong with that family’s heads. I ignore them, but they’re always rushing over to get beaten up. I’ve already cut ties with them, but they still want me to do things for them in the name of being family. It’s so annoying.”
In spite of it, Bai Lin did not seem to be resentful or sad in her expression. She was calm and even smiled before she immediately let the matter go. “Let’s not care about them. The sooner we finish, the sooner we can leave.
She turned around and went to defuse the bomb in a relaxed and happy manner. It was not worth wasting her feelings on unimportant people.
Zhou Guang sighed helplessly. “My sister is just like that kind and soft-hearted.”
Yan Ruo stroked his watch with his fingertips, lightly tapping the metal button on it, as he looked coldly at Zhao Yuan.
Zhao Yuan originally wanted to come over and demand an explanation but was nailed to the spot by Yan Ruo’s gaze. The hair on her back stood up, and she did not dare to go any further.
It was only after Yan Ruo and the others had left for a long time that Zhao Yuan finally heaved a sigh of relief. Her legs were numb from being too tense, and she almost fell to the ground.
She was bewildered.
Yan Ruo was clearly just an actor. How could he have such a powerful and terrifying aura?
After seeing the interior of the third bomb, Bai Lin’s excitement was doused with cold water. She was visibly dejected as she squatted beside the bomb, with her hands on her knees and her chin on the back of her hands. She sighed like a wilted cabbage.
[It’s over. Looking at Bai Lin’s expression, it seems that they’ll have to use their points to defuse it.]
[This bomb… Basically run away as soon as you encounter it if it’s in real life. I can’t defuse it, and it’ll probably take an hour or two for my teacher to do it.
Besides, they only have a screwdriver now.]
[There’s only half an hour left. Bai Lin and the others are really going to be eliminated. Sob, sob, sob. Please don’t. If they’re not on this show, I don’t want to watch it anymore.]
[It’s not the first time the production team stopped being humane. But it shouldn’t be that bad, right? Bai Lin’s group is full of people with high viewership. Even if it’s for the show, they can’t just send them away.]
[This is hilarious. You really don’t know the production team. When have they ever cared about the audience’s feelings? After the most popular Traveler from last season left, someone sent a knife to the director but did they change their minds?]
[Bai Lin, I’m begging you. Don’t be stubborn. Can’t you just buy the answer? I don’t want to see you leave. Sobbbb.]
[Traveler without Bai Lin is simply boring.]
The comments section was filled with wails because of Bai Lin’s expression. Zhou Guang immediately called for the staff member. “I want to use my points to redeem a bomb disposal…”
Bai Lin immediately raised her head and grabbed him, saying anxiously, “No! We’re not redeeming anything!”
The staff member was shocked, and he did not know whether to laugh or cry. “You’ve already been forced to this point, and you’re still not willing to admit defeat?”
Bai Lin was stunned and asked, “What’s wrong with me? I can defuse this.
Why’d I admit defeat?”
The staff member looked at her with eyes that seemed to understand everything and said cryptically, “You’re an adventurous traveler. I wish you success in defusing the bomb.”
[High EQ: you have the spirit of a traveler. Low EQ: You’re just bluffing.]
[I’m speechless. What right does Bai Lin have to stop Zhou-ge from redeeming the instructions? You can’t do it yourself, and you won’t let others do it too?]
Zhou Guang looked into Bai Lin’s eyes as he scratched his chin. “Sis, since you can defuse it, why do you still look so sad?”
Bai Lin’s sadness was brought back to her. She waved her hand weakly. “I’ve seen this bomb before and defused it. It’s the kind of boredom where you’ve cleared the stage once but have to do it again with your eyes closed. Ge, do you understand?”
Zhou Guang was speechless. Nope, sorry, he did not really understand.
Zhou Guang looked at the bomb. The interior was even messier than the ones earlier. Some of the different colored wires were very thin and they were connected together. It was a headache just to look at.
“Even if it’s the second time, it shouldn’t be that boring, right?” the staff member asked, doubting his sense of reality.
Bai Lin got up and stretched herself. She ignored the time bomb and walked off.
Lin Sen followed her. He realized that he could not understand Bai Lin’s actions ever since he joined her team. “There’s only half an hour left.. Aren’t you going to defuse the bomb now?”
