Chapter 38

【Congratulations to the host for obtaining the title of Master Locksmith.】

【All locks in the world can no longer stump you.】

Lin Yu: Hmm?

Can I open the locks on people?

Like chastity locks or something.

System? Why aren't you talking?

Lin Yu suddenly felt his fingers become more flexible and sensitive; his sense of touch had improved significantly, and even his hearing had become better.

For this kind of lock-picking technique, old-fashioned copper locks and safes require listening to the position of the lock cylinder's pins to judge the direction and force of the twist.

Worthy of being a Master Locksmith, absolutely professional!

"Director Yao, how long do we have to wait?"

Song Yuqi sat on a bench, sighing.

Just now, for the sake of game fairness, Director Yao had made a temporary decision: although there would be no punishment for Lin Yu and the others breaking the rules, there would also be no reward for arriving first.

"They're here, they're here."

"Lin Yu, why don't you hide? I can see that everyone's anger is quite high."

Fan Chengcheng saw Li Chen and the others at the entrance of the snack street and hurriedly waved at Lin Yu.

Before long,

the personnel had all arrived, gathering at the snack street, but they were all exhausted, panting and collapsing on the benches to rest.

"Lin Yu, are you trying to die!?"

"We won't even mention the car ride; why did you trick us into going down the mountain?"

Bai Lu's face was flushed red; she brushed the bangs from her forehead, full of anger.

"I really admire you, you old fox."

"The game hasn't even officially started, and I've already lost half my life."

Teacher Sha Yi gulped down a large mouthful of mineral water. He had been on this show for several seasons, and only today did he realize what a real *Running Man* was.

"Lin Yu, you're actually quite a good person."

"Handing me a drink on the pickup truck, I thank you."

Li Chen's eyelids drooped, looking like he had aged a dozen years, his tone sarcastic.

【Ding】

【Resentment visualization also activated.】

Damn!

Lin Yu looked up and was immediately shocked.

He saw that each of these six smart alecks had a shiny little axe on their heads.

Their resentment levels were basically all around 30%.

The highest was actually Yang Yang, followed by Wang Churan.

What surprised Lin Yu was that Bai Lu was carrying a double buff: she had both a little axe and a little red heart.

Isn't this just love-hate?

Lin Yu thought of this and smiled slightly.

"I've made everyone suffer; I'll treat you to ice cream."

Lin Yu distributed the cold drinks he had prepared long ago.

"Lin Yu, do you know that Churan's hands are sore because of your mischief?"

Yang Yang puffed out his chest and stepped forward, accusing him with righteous indignation.

"That's right! You're too bad, Lin Yu."

Wang Churan immediately chimed in, making her signature eye-rolling gesture.

Seeing this, everyone present was stunned, especially Teacher Sha Yi and Li Chen, who widened their eyes and scoffed.

Riding an electric scooter and complaining about it?

Aren't they too pampered!

"Buddy! My memory isn't very good. Is your name Yang Yang, or is it Boiling Sheep?"

Lin Yu scratched his head, acting as if he really didn't remember.

Yang Yang! Boiling Sheep?

Hearing this, everyone was stunned, and then they reacted.

Yang Yang! Boiling Sheep!

"Hahahaha."

Bai Lu let out a demonic goose-like laugh.

Song Yuqi also clutched her stomach, squatting down, laughing her head off.

"What is Boiling Sheep?"

Only Li Chen looked at everyone, scratching his head in confusion, not knowing where the punchline was.

And at this moment, the barrage in the live broadcast room was also flying with laughter.

"Hahaha, this line is truly an old lady crawling into a quilt—it made me laugh. Yang Yang actually became Boiling Sheep? Lin Yu, you really know how to name people."

"Question: What kind of sheep will turn into a dog? Answer: Yang Yang!

Because Yang Yang will turn into a bootlicker."

"Holy cow! The guy upstairs is a genius! You've really mastered the nine-year compulsory education."

"……"

Yang Yang wanted to retort, but was immediately interrupted by Director Yao. The live broadcast was only six hours long, and two hours had already passed, yet they hadn't played the first game. He was quite speechless; it seemed they needed to speed up the progress.

"Let me briefly introduce the rules for the next game."

"This game is called *Escape Room Gourmet*."

"The female guests in the team are princesses and will be locked in an escape room."

"The other two members are responsible for eating the delicacies drawn by the princess. Once finished, they can unlock the door."

"The game has a total of three levels."

After hearing the game rules, everyone nodded, indicating they understood.

"I'm just a bit tired; this means we can eat. That's great."

Li Chen stretched his muscles and moved his jaw, planning to have a big meal in a while.

"I've been hungry for a long time! Director Yao, I'm applying to pack up what we don't finish."

Teacher Sha Yi licked his dry lips, smiling brightly.

"Director Yao, start quickly! I can't hold back anymore."

Zhou Shen's throat moved a few times, and he urged hurriedly.

"Why do I have a bad premonition?"

"It won't be dark cuisine, will it?"

Lin Yu's right eyelid twitched, and he blurted out.

"Shut your crow's mouth!"

"That's right! If you can't, donate your mouth. Hope for something good, can you?"

Wang Churan and Yang Yang glared at Lin Yu.

"Lin Yu, we might have to draw lots again. What should we do? I have bad luck."

Song Yuqi helplessly spread her palms and sighed.

"How about I be the princess, and you two protect me?"

Fan Chengcheng touched his thigh and struck a sexy pose.

"Fan Chengcheng, aren't you disgusting?"

Lin Yu looked at Fan Chengcheng with contempt, full of disgust, then pursed his lips, revealing fiery red lips, acting charming and playful.

"Actually, choosing me as the princess is fine too."

"……"

【Song Yuqi favorability decreased by 1%】

【Fan Chengcheng favorability increased by 5%】
