Chapter 69: Terrifying Livestream (6) (Bug Fix)
"Don't... touch my stuff."
The voice that rang out was particularly hoarse. The girl waved an especially large blade in her hand. It was clear that her mental state was not normal. While hoarsely screaming, she also displayed an eerie smile.
She wore very heavy makeup, with lots of white powder applied. Almost every movement caused white powder to fall from her face. But in complete contrast, the girl's black eyeliner was stretched out very far.
"Why... why touch my diary? That's mine, all my memories!" Words kept spilling from her bright red lips, the large blade in the girl's hand reflecting a silvery-white glow under the lights.
This brightness nearly blinded Liang Xuan's eyes.
—Diary.
Qi An's gaze instinctively fell to his hand. The black-haired boy's eyes narrowed slightly. The thing he had just picked up was indeed a diary. It was a book the director had asked him to hold earlier.
"This girl was created by our holographic technology. You don't need to be afraid. Qi An, just pretend to be scared and freeze in place. As for Liang Xuan, maintain your calm demeanor for now. Try chatting with her." The director's voice适时响起, his tone smooth and low. But Qi An could clearly detect it.
There was some uncertainty and hesitation in the director's voice.
"She'll respond to you. According to our setting, an important clue will come out of her mouth. We'll discuss that later." The director's words continued flowing through the earpiece. "In any case, Qi An, absolutely do not let go of the diary throughout this entire process. She'll have a moment of violent rage, and I'll warn you when that happens."
"Liang Xuan, grab the diary out of Qi An's hand and pull him toward the door. Keep running until you've left the house, then stop..."
"Your diary?" Liang Xuan's wet hair had already dried. She stared intently at the approaching girl.
"Yes, my diary!" The girl with the pallid makeup snapped out of her daze, her mouth nearly splitting open to the gums—a state on the verge of collapse. "My diary... it contains all my love. Only at that time was I... normal. It's my most precious possession. Don't touch it. No one is allowed to touch it..."
Normal?
Qi An gently抿了抿嘴唇.
Inside the livestream room, the comments predictably exploded. Everyone was paying close attention to the scene unfolding on screen. At this moment, the number of viewers watching Liang Xuan and Qi An's livestream reached a new peak.
For some reason, Qi An's presence in the livestream room had grown larger. Liang Xuan seemed to have warmed up as well, her arm holding the livestream camera suddenly became unusually steady. This allowed viewers to clearly see what was in Qi An's hand.
Unlike the composed Liang Xuan, Qi An's reaction was exactly what all the viewers had predicted—格外脆弱. The black-haired boy's body trembled violently. His movements were quite pronounced, causing the closed diary in his hand to flip open.
"All your love?" Liang Xuan's voice was cold and detached.
"Yes, I loved him so much! Why, why!" The girl's expression suddenly contorted, as if she had been subjected to unbearable provocation. "He deceived me! Deception deserves punishment! But... I regret it. I shouldn't have killed..."
"No, no. I did nothing wrong. He's mine now! No one... can take him away from me!" The girl's sorrowful expression vanished, and she broke into a foolish, lovesick smile.
Suddenly, the girl's pitch-black eyes turned toward Liang Xuan and Qi An.
"Qi An, put down the diary in your hand first!" Liang Xuan's voice turned somewhat grave.
"What?" Qi An seemed somewhat dazed, looking at Liang Xuan with confused eyes.
"Will we..." Liang Xuan's lips curved slightly, but before she could finish her next words, the director's panicked shout rang out: "Run!"
"What's going on? Didn't 文士 already fix it?" The director's voice became frantic, his face turning ashen.
"We just checked it many times. There was no malfunction." The staff member answering him broke out in a cold sweat. 文士 was the core program of R Company's holographic technology. All holographic technology depended on it. Once something went wrong, everything would turn into chaos. "But just now, it suddenly experienced a fluctuation. All the settings we had input didn't change significantly. Only... the protagonist of the script changed from Liang Xuan to..."
The man's anxious words stopped there. His mouth was still opening and closing, but it was as if something had grabbed him by the throat—he could only produce some air sounds.
"What?" The director stared at him wide-eyed, but the next second his expression changed drastically. The man who had been conversing with him just now collapsed with a thud.
...
Liang Xuan flung Qi An's diary away, then grabbed him and pulled him forcefully toward the door.
"Dear, let's play a game... Find me..."
A voice suddenly rang out in his ear. Qi An lowered his head, gazing meaningfully at his wrist, which had turned red from being gripped.
