Chapter 80: I Bet Your Gun Has No Bullets

~7 min read 1,331 words

What the hell?

Alive!?

Fake Corpse, huh!

The police officer widened his eyes.

He even couldn't believe the scene he was seeing.

The knife was already lodged in the heart.

The person lay on the ground, motionless.

He actually used his phone's built‑in flashlight, and a single shine revived him?

Not only is he alive, his spirit is also very vigorous.

He curses without even taking a breath.

At that moment, the police officer suddenly had an idea.

Maybe... could I be the reincarnation of Hua Tuo?

But at that instant, the man with a knife stuck in his chest stared at the overly‑cheerful Extra before him with a puzzled expression.

"Nerves!"

He felt a deep frustration inside.

Clearly, the script the director gave didn't have this part.

His job was to play a dead body.

No lines, no movements—playing it was as simple as it gets.

Who knew a moron would pop up out of nowhere.

Without a word, he came up and tried to break his eyes.

He shone the phone's flashlight straight into his eyeballs.

The intense light burned his eyes, a piercing pain.

His brain buzzed from the illumination.

At first, he endured it stubbornly so as not to disrupt the shoot.

Though it hurt, he stubbornly didn't move a muscle.

But who the hell could have imagined.

The kid kept shining harder; after one blast he was still unsatisfied and was about to do a second round?

Trying to blind someone!?

After venting his anger by cursing.

This Extra suddenly realized.

For this scene, the director hadn't called 'clap' yet.

Because of his mistake, the whole scene had to be redone.

Today's boxed lunch... probably gone.

He, with a painful sigh, wiped his face and said.

"Big Brother, in the next take, could you stop shining the light on my eyes for so long? I really can't stand it! I'm playing a dead body, not a real dead body, why are you doing this? My eyes are about to be blinded by you."

"Huh?" the police officer said, a bit bewildered.

What's going on?

Seeing the police officer's expression, the Extra grew even more irritated.

"Fuck off, you're just annoying!"

Having said that, the Extra left the kitchen.

The moment he left the kitchen, he immediately put on an apologetic face and said, "Director, sorry, I... where's the director?"

Director???

The police officers were stunned.

The Scam Gang members were also stunned.

What director?

And also, why does this Big Brother have a fruit knife stuck in his chest, acting like nothing's wrong?

The police officer who had earlier 'revived' this Extra with his phone came over.

"What director? Don't move around; you still have a knife in you. I'll call 120 for you; sit over there and stay still, so you don't lose too much blood and go into shock."

Originally the Extras weren't confused, but after hearing that, they too were bewildered.

This knife... isn't it a prop from the crew?

What the heck is 'excessive blood loss'?

Also, call what 120? Is this in the script?

At this point, everyone in the villa—including the police officers, the Scam Gang members, and the Extras—was in a state of bewilderment.

Everyone kept looking at each other.

All wore puzzled expressions.

They now desperately needed someone to explain this.

What on earth is going on?

The atmosphere in the villa suddenly turned strange.

After a dozen seconds.

One of the Extras spoke up, "Where's the director? Still not calling 'clap'?"

Officer: "???"

Criminal gang: "???"

What is he saying? What director?

Another ten or so seconds passed.

An officer said into the Earpiece, "Zhang Dui, I think these people's mental state is not normal; should we prepare a drug test..."

Zhang Dui, who was commanding remotely and coordinating the whole situation, frowned.

"Mental state not quite normal? What specific manifestations?"

"That person has a fruit knife stuck in his chest, yet he's still hopping around, saying he's looking for something... a director; he probably thinks he's in a movie!"

"Filming?" Zhang Dui repeated.

He instinctively felt that there was something wrong here.

But specifically, he couldn't put it into words.

Because he truly had never encountered such a strange incident.

Who could have a knife stuck in their chest and still be hopping around?

At that moment, Han Fei was right beside Zhang Dui.

So he heard Zhang Dui's words crystal clear.

Han Fei's face darkened instantly.

Needless to say, this Sheer Cliff is a Mischief set up by Xu Mo.

Han Fei is far too familiar with Xu Mo's tricks!

"Zhang Dui, those people might actually be Extras; surely Xu Mo fooled them into thinking he was a director, then gave them a script to follow. Have the officers ignore the Extras for now, quickly arrest the members of the Scam Gang, and if possible, also arrest Xu Mo."

Because this time, they're truly cracking down on criminals.

Han Fei couldn't go in to intervene, so he could only voice his analysis.

Zhang Dui, who already felt this matter exuded a strange aura.

After hearing Han Fei's words, he instantly saw the light.

Actually, even without Han Fei's reminder, he could have figured it out after a while.

Though the situation is odd, it can still be untangled with some thought.

Han Fei could spot the problem earlier than Zhang Dui simply because Han Fei knows Xu Mo better.

The next second.

Zhang Dui's voice, transmitted through the Earpiece, reached every officer's ear.

"Everyone, pay attention: there are two groups in the villa now. One group is Extras recruited by Xu Mo; they know nothing. The other group is the Scam Gang. Ignore the Extras, first detain the Scam Gang members, and also arrest Xu Mo for me!"

Upon Zhang Dui's statement, the officers immediately understood.

"Copy that!"

"Script... director..." Wang Yue murmured.

At this point, Wang Yue had also mostly figured things out.

That whole thing about chopping people up and feeding them to dogs was all a damn lie.

It was Xu Mo who hired people to act for them!

At first, she felt something was off.

Because these men in black suits didn't give the impression of cold‑blooded outlaws.

Rather, they seemed like they were acting.

Yet even though she had this guess from the start.

Wang Yue didn't dare to gamble.

After all, there's only one life.

If the gamble is right, it's fine.

If the gamble is wrong...

She'd probably really get chopped up and fed to dogs.

However, after combining all the scenes she just saw and analyzing them together.

Wang Yue figured it out.

These people really aren't outlaws!

This damn thing is actors recruited by Xu Mo!

Realizing she was fooled again, Wang Yue felt a surge of anger.

She couldn't help letting out a curse.

"Damn! They played us, these people are all actors Xu Mo hired! Bastard, don't let me see him again!"

As Wang Yue said that, the Scam Gang members instantly understood, and each of them stood up.

Guangtou scratched his bald, slightly reflective head.

He just felt seething with anger.

"Damn it! Play me!? Where's Xu Mo? I'm gonna chop him up and feed him to dogs today!"

The group of Extras: "???"

What's going on? This is over the top.

Our script doesn't have this part!

The Scam Gang members rose one after another.

The officers, without a word, pointed their guns at them.

"No moving, all of you squat down, hands on your heads!"

"Who would have thought, the Scam Gang that was just cooperating perfectly a moment ago suddenly stopped cooperating."

"Guangtou the big man sneered."

"\"Heh, still playing with the two of us? \""

"\"You take a broken b‑zi water gun to scare your dad? \""

"\"Still squatting and hugging your head? I'll hug you, MLGB! \""

"\"If you think you're capable, fire your gun; I want to see what's in your gun. \""

"\"I bet your gun doesn't have any bullets. \""
