Scarlett Jennings directly called the driver to take the people back.
She herself followed Daniel Wright and a few others to the meeting point.
This time, eighty people registered for the event, and players had already gathered in front of the park square, mostly young men and women, making it quite lively at first glance.
The game organizers were explaining the rules, with an emphasis on:
"Civilized gameplay! During the game, avoid excessive physical contact. If you encounter a dangerous situation, call for help promptly. Let’s try to pair up in teams and avoid going into overly dangerous areas..."
Daniel Wright explained below,
"This game has gained popularity among young people, with organizations holding events all over the country, which have sometimes resulted in inappropriate behaviors. We’ll try to act in groups later. Besides us, people sent by the Security Bureau will stay with our undercover officers."
"No problem."
Among the five people, Scarlett Jennings and Daniel Wright were in the mouse group. After the game started, the two took off first with over thirty players to hide as Jerry.
Scarlett Jennings and Daniel Wright had just run out, and a familiar guy carrying equipment immediately followed them from the crowd.
This was the cameraman from the program team.
Before setting off, Director Clark specifically found Daniel Wright and proposed to take this opportunity to follow along live as a special broadcast for the last episode.
The aim was to directly expose the hidden dangers behind this popular game. Even if they couldn’t find out the reasons for the missing persons today, at least they could alert the audience.
Daniel Wright thought about it and agreed.
Cloud Sea Park is considered a locally famous large park, with many buildings around the square and a large shopping mall nearby. It was the busiest time in the evening.
Scarlett Jennings and Daniel Wright chose their hiding spots according to the game rules and then opened their phone locators, seeing that the cat group’s icon on the map had also started moving.
At the same time, the sudden start of the extra live broadcast online caught many netizens off guard.
[What’s going on? Cat and mouse game live? There wasn’t this in the program preview!]
[The girl is Jerry, who’s the person next to her?]
[One of the players, I guess. Whoever it is, just watch it! This is an extra update!]
According to Daniel Wright’s previous investigation, those who mysteriously disappeared were mostly from the mouse group, so Scarlett Jennings and Daniel Wright’s goal tonight was to survive until the end and become the Rat King.
The cameraman following Scarlett Jennings felt a bit worried,
"Should I hide a bit farther away? So I don’t get you guys discovered later."
After all, there were only a few places reliable enough to hide people, and hiding together made the target too obvious.
If Master Jennings aimed to be the Rat King, he shouldn’t hold others back.
Scarlett Jennings glanced at the cameraman and just said, "It’s not a big deal."
As she spoke, she took out a talisman paper and hid the cameraman’s presence directly.
When the cameraman heard that, even if he was filming next to them, he wouldn’t be noticed, and he was thrilled, making the camera tremble slightly.
"I-I’m invisible now? You can’t see me anymore?"
Even though the live-stream viewers couldn’t see the cameraman in the first place, it didn’t stop them from thinking it was really cool.
Who wouldn’t want an invisibility skill?!
Scarlett Jennings looked at the excited expression of the cameraman, just seriously explained,
"It’s not invisibility, but rather hiding your presence, lowering your personal sense of existence as much as possible. If you’re flailing and shouting directly in front of people, they can’t ignore you."
Upon hearing this, the cameraman’s enthusiasm dropped a bit.
Daniel Wright looked at Scarlett Jennings and suddenly asked, "Is something wrong?"
[Who organized the game? This is clearly unfair!]
Scarlett Jennings didn’t pay heed to the discussion on the bullet board, she added, "Since just now, we haven’t encountered other passersby." frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓
Cloud Sea Park is a lakeside park, and at this time there should be quite a few people running or walking their dogs. Even though they had left the central area, they shouldn’t have failed to meet ordinary passersby.
Scarlett Jennings had a vague guess but was about to verify it when suddenly some familiar voices sounded nearby.
Scarlett Jennings and Daniel Wright quickly exchanged a look, and without thinking further, they ran directly towards the source of the sound.
As the streetlights grew brighter, Scarlett Jennings finally saw the group of people over there clearly.
Among them, one person in black clothes and a black hat was Lucas Jennings’ group, who were supposed to have left.
And the female cat group player he was grabbing was... Alicia Sharp.
Scarlett Jennings: ...
Alicia Sharp, suddenly grabbed by Lucas Jennings, was feeling speechless. Who would’ve thought that playing a game could lead to bumping into familiar people.
And seeing Scarlett Jennings walking towards her, her eyes widened more.
Really...how could there be more than one familiar face?
"Lucas, why are you still here?"
Scarlett Jennings wasn’t curious about Alicia Sharp; with apricot eyes, she simply fixed her gaze on a few from Lucas Jennings’ group, according to time, they should have left an hour ago.
And at this moment, Lucas Jennings saw Scarlett Jennings, but wasn’t at all sheepish about being caught, instead, he looked moved yet aggrieved, directly letting go of Alicia Sharp, he rushed toward Scarlett Jennings,
"Sis! I finally found you!"
He said, with a mournful face, aggrievedly,
"This park is really evil! We’ve been unable to get out of it since just now!"
