Tang Shu stood still, not saying a word, and just blinked under the gaze of everyone looking over.
Ke Jiazhao immediately shook his head, "It’s definitely not her!"
"Why not? Do you have any evidence!" Wang Zhan wouldn’t let go of any chance to prove innocence.
"Just because you went to point fingers at her!"
"Exactly, exactly, you just want to escape our accusations, you’re protecting Chen Xin."
"Besides, look at Tang Shu, not saying a word like that, with those eyes. Does she look like a bad person to you?"
What is this mess of reasons?!
Wang Zhan felt so anxious in his heart; as the one who drew the landlord identity, he had been waiting for his colleague to contact him but the wait was in vain.
Of course, he hadn’t found the contact sign either.
He suddenly felt a pang in his heart when Ke Jiazhao was guessing just now, and immediately felt that he had guessed the truth.
Chen Xin was his contact person!
As for Tang Shu? She really didn’t seem likely; that was why he dared to steer the topic toward her. He never expected his old friend to be so unreliable.
However... there was still Zhao Ming with a two-character name; could it be him?
Damn, everything’s a mess.
While thoughts flew chaotically on one side, Chen Xin was extremely anxious on the other.
However, time was up, and once again everyone stepped into the voting area.
But this time, there was a strange phenomenon: among the six people, Wang Zhan and Chen Xin each had two votes tied, while Tang Shu and Zhao Ming also each had one vote.
Clearly, the vote against Tang Shu came from Wang Zhan, and the one against Zhao Ming came from Chen Xin. The two votes on each of them were split by the remaining four people.
"Director, what happens in case of a tied vote?"
"Should we vote again?"
Just as everyone found themselves at an impasse, Ke Jiazhao smiled inscrutably and pulled out an Elimination Card from him.
"No need for that, I’ll solve this problem. Here I have an Elimination Card, and since they can only eliminate one person by the voting rules, then adding this card will be enough to eliminate them."
Uh oh, this move is really ruthless.
Wang Zhan had been somewhat relieved, but he hadn’t expected his old friend to pull such a move and let out a wail.
"Director, just how many Elimination Cards have you hidden away!"
The director, expressionless, announced the result, "Wang Zhan, Chen Xin eliminated, the game... continues."
Ke Jiazhao was immediately surprised, his eyes widening as he stared at the only three remaining people: Zhang Yilin, Tang Shu, and Zhao Ming.
How could this be? Was his analysis incorrect?
If that person was not Chen Xin, then could it be... Zhao Ming?
His name also had two characters!
The team split up again, and the remaining four people went their separate ways.
However, after making a round, Zhang Yilin came back to Tang Shu’s side.
"Chu he ri dang wu?" (Weeding grass in the heat of the sun?)
Tang Shu remained unfazed, her tone steady, "Han di he xia tu." (Sweat drips down to the soil beneath the grass.)
The other person immediately grew excited, "Hey, are you the landlord?"
Tang Shu glanced at him, sidestepping the question, "Didn’t I say it at the beginning? I’m an undercover operative."
"Wow~~~ are you serious? Aren’t you afraid I’ll report you?"
"Report what, aren’t you one too?"
"Hehehe, how did you figure it out?"
Tang Shu pointed to her head, "Up here."
You’re still asking after the contact sign was mentioned? It seems even Zhang Yilin knew the sign wasn’t reliable——
Tang Shu criticized the Program Team’s twisted sense of humor once again.
