Chen Che was the first to run over. Lin Xi and Chu Feiyun had yet to react, but they also ran over.

Chen Che was extremely fast and had already stopped a few. He shouted, “Block both sides and don’t let them come over!”

Chu Feiyun and Lin Xi immediately stood still.

Sure enough, there were balloon men running towards them in different directions.

“Bang bang!”

Chen Che instantly crushed five balloons.

This corner seemed to be a hiding place. There were at least 50 people hiding.

Other than those who were waiting to be crushed, the others that had escaped were breaking through towards Lin Xi and Chu Feiyun.

Chu Feiyun rolled up his sleeves, and Lin Xi was also ready to attack.

From the moment Chen Che ran over until now, Lin Xi and Chu Feiyun had only stopped them for more than ten seconds.

Chen Che could pop five balloons. It was obvious how many of them there were and how fast they were.

However, at this moment…

“Chu Feiyun… out!”

A message suddenly came from the broadcast.

Everyone was stunned.

Even the audience who subconsciously wanted to break through the encirclement stopped and looked up at the sky, then at the confused Chu Feiyun.

Chen Che popped the balloon and looked back at Chu Feiyun in confusion.

Lin Xi was even more at a loss.

However, the staff walked forward and decisively tore off Chu Feiyun’s name tag and took him away, confirming that he was not hallucinating.

Chu Feiyun’s elimination was not a joke.

“Could it be Chen Che?” Zhao Chao asked Shen Hong in confusion.

Zhao Chao and Shen Hong remained where they were.

“No, what I heard was…” Shen Hong shook his head.

“Who is it?” Zhao Chao asked.

“Chu Feiyun,” Shen Hong looked at Zhao Chao and replied.

“Him?” Zhao Chao was shocked.

“I did hear it was him.” Shen Hong nodded affirmatively.

“Impossible. He was very brave today,” Zhao Chao said suspiciously.

“It’s indeed him.” Shen Hong confirmed again.

“But he’s really brave today.” Zhao Chao frowned.

“So don’t you think this is strange?” Shen Hong asked.

Zhao Chao was stunned.

“What are you still talking about?” Luo Heng walked over.

“He said it’s Chu Feiyun.” Zhao Chao looked at Luo Heng.

“I did hear it was him…” Shen Hong said.

“Chu Feiyun, out!!!”

The broadcast suddenly sounded, and the few of them opened their mouths in shock.

They all looked incredulous.

After a long time, Zhao Chao retreated with a faint smile. “Shen Hong

“I really…” Shen Hong wanted to explain.

“Little Luo, come here.” Zhao Chao gestured to the confused Luo Heng.

Luo Heng subconsciously went over.

“Chu Feiyun was out?! What exactly is going on?!”

Not long after, Qin Feng walked over.

“Shen Hong, you’re playing too deep.” Zhao Chao glared at Shen Hong.

“It isn’t me!” Shen Hong sighed.

Qin Feng was puzzled. “Then what exactly happened?”

“Just now, he said that Chu Feiyun was a traitor. In the next second, Chu Feiyun was out!” Zhao Chao looked at Qin Feng.

“Ah, ah!” Shen Hong looked up at the sky and let out a long cry. Then, he smiled weakly.

“Shen Hong, if that’s the case, you’ve trapped yourself.”

Qin Feng looked at Shen Hong with pity.

“It really wasn’t me.”

Shen Hong bent down and held his knees. He panted for a moment before raising his head solemnly. However, the effect did not seem to be good enough.

“Lin Xi?”

When Chu Feiyun was taken away by the staff, he looked at Lin Xi in shock at the last moment, but then disappeared into the crowd.

The balloon people nearby also fled the scene.

Chen Che did not come over. Instead, he looked warily at the stunned Lin Xi.

“It wasn’t me!” Lin Xi wanted to explain.

“I’ve always trusted you, but you don’t trust me?”

Seeing Chen Che’s expression, Lin Xi was extremely anxious.

“Trust? Is this a romance drama?” Chen Che was expressionless.

“It really wasn’t me!” Lin Xi looked at Chen Che sincerely with tears in her eyes.

“Then why did he call your name when he left?” Chen Che questioned.

“How would I know?” Lin Xi laughed.

“I came over to pop the balloon first. Later, only the two of you were left. Brother Feiyun was eliminated. Could it be me?” Chen Che asked.

“I’m very confused too, okay?” Lin Xi shouted.

“What’s your game strategy?” Chen Che nodded.

“Hmph.”

Lin Xi glared at him, understanding that he was complaining about what she had just said to Zhao Ting.

Chen Che frowned and examined Lin Xi. “Is it really not you? I don’t know why he was eliminated.”

Lin Xi pouted and squatted down, her fingers moving on the ground.

“I didn’t do anything!” Lin Xi looked up.

“It’s really not you?” Chen Che approached cautiously.

“Look into my eyes.” Lin Xi tidied her hair seriously.

“It’s very big, very pretty, very beautiful.” Chen Che looked at it seriously.

“Would someone with such beautiful eyes lie?” Lin Xi questioned.

“My mother said that the more beautiful a woman is, the more unbelievable she is.” Chen Che shook his head.

“Are you Zhang Wuji?” Lin Xi couldn’t help but laugh.

“You’re Xiao Zhao?” Chen Che asked.

“You’re indeed ersatz exoticism.” Chen Che sized up her curiously.

“Forget it. If you don’t believe me, forget it.”

Lin Xi waved her hand gently and stood up to leave.

“Okay, I believe you.”

Chen Che quickly caught up. Lin Xi glanced at him from the corner of her eye expressionlessly.

“Then you have to trust me too, okay?”

Chen Che stopped and looked at Lin Xi seriously.

“I’ve always believed in you,” Lin Xi replied with a frown.

“Then don’t worry about it. Let’s pop the balloons together.”

Chen Che said with a smile. Lin Xi heaved a sigh of relief and did not say anything.

The two of them walked away together and started chasing the people with balloons.

“Why are you still standing here and not popping balloons?”

Zhao Ting walked over and looked at everyone in confusion.

“As expected, Shen Hong and Chen Che are in cahoots.”

Luo Heng explained, and Zhao Chao agreed.

Zhao Ting thought for a moment and shook his head. “I don’t think that’s possible.”

“We were all standing here just now. Only Chen Che, Lin Xi, and Chu Feiyun didn’t appear. It can’t be Shen Hong,” Zhao Ting argued.

Everyone was stunned. Zhao Ting encouraged, “Let’s move. We’re already facing 400 spectators. If there are two more audience representatives, we might as well admit defeat.”

“That’s true. 4.00 viewers is already a huge burden. If there’s another audience representative, we might as well not play,” Zhao Chao echoed.

“Move, don’t care who it is. It’s more important to eliminate the balloons first!” Zhao Chao urged everyone.

Shen Hong heaved a sigh of relief. It was fine as long as they did not suspect him.

Because it really wasn’t him.

Everyone moved together and began to crush the balloons on a large scale.

Fortunately, there were many people, so it was not so easy to hide.

During this period, the balloon man audience provoked Qin Feng. Qin Feng changed from his usual tired state and erupted with shocking strength, crushing countless balloons.

Even the VJ couldn’t breathe. He sighed that he had followed a “fake” Qin Feng today.

As for the other scattered Zhao Chao, Luo Heng, Zhao Ting, Lin Zhe, Shen Hong, and even Jin Song, they all focused on the balloons. The number of balloon people decreased rapidly.
