Chapter 1 Mechanical Heart (1)

The lights in the apartment seemed to be broken, and the six people were shrouded in a gray unknown zone. Everyone's psychology became more depressed with the unusual silence.

"I, I'll go take a look and turn on the light."

In the breathless atmosphere, the third male broke the silence for the first time.

He seemed to want to help, and also seemed to want to exercise his muscles that had nowhere to go, so under the grateful eyes of everyone, he walked into the darkness.

However, once you leave, you will never come back.

It wasn't until nearly half an hour later that the second female lead got irritated and muttered: "Why are you so slow?"

As soon as the words fell, there was a gurgling sound in the distance.

The sound was particularly abrupt in this empty apartment.

"It's...what's the sound?"

The girl was so scared that she almost cried. She gritted her teeth and asked tremblingly.

However, no one could answer her.

The grunting sound was getting closer, and a few seconds later, an object rolled down the stairs and hit Lu Ximi's toes.

She looked down.

It's the head of the third male.

……

an hour ago.

When Lu Ximi got out of the car, a camera came directly to Lu Ximi's face.

Although I have long known that domestic romance dramas are not about nature but act according to the script, but this kind of behavior that is so close to one's face that one cannot ignore its existence is indeed displeasing.

But Lu Ximi didn't show it.

She is already a mature artist.

Lu Ximi was the third female and came later in the order. When she arrived, there were already many people at the scene.

One of the handsome men caught Lu Ximi's eyes immediately.

It's Song Chuqian.

The son of the best actor Song Xing, he is one of the top actors in the acting niche. His popularity has always been very high, but he usually doesn’t even appear in variety shows. This time, for some unknown reason, he took on this romantic variety show.

But Lu Ximi's eyes didn't stay on Song Chuqian for long. She knew that she was the third female and Song Chuqian was the first male. There was a gap between them.

Even for a Yan Gou, Song Chuqian aroused her interest immediately.

This romance show is called "Falling in Travel". As the name suggests, it is about visiting various tourist attractions.

After Lu Ximi sat down, only one girl remained.

She raised her head and scanned her surroundings. It was a beautiful community, and they were in the central garden.

The decoration here is so exquisite that you can seem to peek into the beauty of the apartment through the central garden.

"Hello, my name is Cheng Jiuyan."

The third male seemed to know that Lu Ximi was the right person for him, so he came to get close to her.

Lu Ximi didn't reject it either. He put on a smile and chatted with the third male.

Just like an ordinary variety show, the director said some useful but useless rules and then let six people enter the apartment.

However, unlike the glamorous apartment they imagined, it was covered in moss, cold and damp, and even the lights were dim and flickering, as if everyone had stepped into a haunted house.

The air was also very dirty, and everyone coughed more or less.

The second female lead's face suddenly became unattractive.

She turned around and was about to ask the director what was going on, but she saw that the door of the originally full apartment was closed tightly. Except for the six of them, there was no sign of life in the entire space.

Liu Li, the second female lead, was shocked. She spoke slowly, her voice trembling uncontrollably: "What's wrong with all the staff? Are they all gone?"

As soon as the words came out, the others also reacted.

They searched everywhere but couldn't find the staff, the director, or the agent.

"What's going on?"

"It's weird here."

The second male was even more unbelieving, so he ran to the gate and patted vigorously, but no one responded.

Lu Ximi glanced around, and finally his eyes met Song Chuqian's.

Song Chuqian had no expression and took the lead to look away.

Lu Ximi didn't covet that face for too long, because the phone in her pocket suddenly rang.

Not only her, but everyone else's mobile phones in the room all responded.

All I saw was a black screen on my phone, except for a line of red text in the center.

"You are not allowed to leave the hall before the characters are drawn. Violators will be responsible for the consequences."

After reading it, Cheng Jiuyan was the first to express his disdain.

"It's the 21st century, why are people still doing this kind of prank?"

His disdain did not last long, because not long after, his head rolled to Lu Ximi's feet, his eyes filled with confusion and despair.

Perhaps only he himself knows what he saw before his death.

Even the stupid and bold Lu Ximi was so scared that he jumped back several meters, let alone the others.

Nvyi screamed and almost fainted. She squeezed Liu Li's hand tightly and closed her eyes tightly, not daring to open them.

The second male actor didn't care whether there was a camera or not. He was so frightened that the telegraph operator typed out more than 1 sentences in one minute.

Only Song Chuqian, despite some emotional ups and downs, seemed particularly calm among everyone.

"Ding dong."

The phone rang again.

Lu Ximi took out his phone immediately. It was still the same template as before, but the font in the middle changed to "This is a small warning for you to violate the rules. In 5 minutes, the role will be drawn."

Lu Ximi glanced at the head again. She suppressed the discomfort in her heart and frowned.

Using a living life as a warning is too indifferent to life.

But what is the situation?
Others looked at their phones and fell into a vortex of doubt.

Liu Li wanted to smash the phone directly. As soon as she raised her hand, Lu Ximi made a faint voice: "You have to bear the consequences of smashing the phone."

Lu Ximi's words reminded Liu Li of the lifeless Cheng Jiuyan, and her hands that were about to move froze in place.

Liu Li silently retracted her hand and glanced at Lu Ximi gratefully.

Five minutes is usually very fast, but in the eyes of five people, it is extremely torturous.

After five minutes of silence, everyone looked at a bunch of things that appeared out of thin air in front of them and looked at each other.

The mobile phone prompts them to each choose one within 5 minutes.

Lu Ximi had some vague guesses in his heart.

While others were still hesitating to obey, she had already picked up a keyboard.

Song Chuqian looked at her with some surprise, as if he was surprised by Lu Ximi's good psychological acceptance.

But he also reacted quickly and picked up a pan.

Seeing that there was nothing unusual after the two selected, the others quickly picked the props they wanted.

Only the second male lead, Mo Mofeng, looked at the remaining ugly beanie hat with a disgusting expression.

He glanced at the props in other people's hands, and finally fixed his gaze on the keyboard in Lu Ximi's hand.

"Hey, give me the keyboard in your hand."

Mo Mofeng is a niche player with a lot of fans and a very high popularity, which makes him extremely swollen after only two years since his debut.

He was used to arrogantly dictating the [-]th line, which had little reputation.

He thought Lu Ximi would obediently hand over his keyboard, but he heard this sentence: "You don't have a mother? You don't know polite words?"

Amazing speech.

Everyone looked at Lu Ximi in unison.

Only Lu Ximi looked as usual, still looking indifferent.

If this was a recording of a program, she would have given it to him, and she would have been aggrieved and acted like he would give it to him again, but now there was no sign of a camera, so why should she give it?
And if you give him the keyboard and you die, won't you lose blood?
Mo Mofeng was stunned, and after reacting, he immediately became furious.

"How dare you talk to me like that?!"

After saying that, he pretended to grab the keyboard.

Lu Ximi raised his leg without any hesitation and kicked Mo Mofeng in the stomach.

Mo Mofeng was caught off guard and kicked back several steps.

Lu Ximi didn't exert any force, but it still caused Mo Mofeng a lot of pain.

He clutched his stomach and staggered several steps before standing up straight.

Anxious and annoyed, he pointed at Lu Ximi and wanted to rant.

But I heard the countdown beep from the phone again.

He took out his cell phone and saw that there were only ten seconds left in the countdown.

He was so frightened that he couldn't care less about the pain. He rushed to the center and picked up the woolen hat with brains on the ground.

"Ding dong."

Lu Ximi felt a little pity when he looked at Mo Mofeng who had a near miss.

If I had known if I had just tripped him, he would have timed out. What will happen if he times out...

Lu Ximi was somewhat looking forward to it.

At the end of 5 minutes, everyone has a prop in their hands.

Everyone was quite satisfied, except Mo Mofeng, who looked at Lu Ximi angrily.

But Lu Ximi had no time to care about Mo Mofeng, because an inexplicable memory was suddenly transmitted into her head.

"Your name is Lu Ximi. You live in Room 403 of Qiangwei Apartment with your boyfriend Song Chuqian. You are a game anchor. One day, you found that Aiko, the tenant of 507, died at home. You were included in the list of suspects. Closed In Qiangwei Apartment, who is the murderer of Ai Keke among you, Song Chuqian, Liu Li, An Baizi, and Mo Mofeng?"

Drama, script killing?

This was Lu Ximi's first reaction.

The others obviously also have their own memories, with different complexions.

The phone then sent supplementary rules.

They need to vote for the murderer within three days. If they vote correctly, they will get props. If they vote incorrectly, they will not get props. If the murderer is successfully voted, all members except the murderer will get an extra prop. The false murderer who is voted wrong will have to deduct one prop.

At present, it seems that no one will die if he casts the wrong person, and no one will die if he is a murderer.

But what the props are used for, the rules don’t explain.

Lu Ximi reviewed his memory and breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that he was not the murderer.

It's not that she has never played scripted killing before, but it must be the first time for her to be so real and terrifying. Not being able to draw the murderer's book is simply a gift from God.

Just when Lu Ximi was rejoicing, another message was sent to his cell phone.

"The time goes back to the day before the incident, and the transmission starts now..."

Before Lu Ximi had time to react, the world was spinning for a while. When he woke up again, when he opened his eyes, he saw Song Chuqian's face.

To be more precise, the person lying next to Lu Ximi was actually Song Chuqian.

At this time, Song Chuqian also slowly opened his eyes.

The four eyes met, and they were speechless for a moment.

"How do you climb into someone's bed?"

Lu Ximi's words were astonishing.

After saying that, she quickly remembered that she and Song Chuqian were supposed to be lovers and lived in room 403, so it seemed normal to sleep in the same bed.

Song Chuqian got up in a hurry, his indifferent face seemed to be a little blushing: "It's a character issue."

Lu Ximi instantly had the illusion that he was sleeping with an irresponsible scumbag.

But the two of them did not stay in this state for long, because it was already afternoon.

The legendary dead Eco Society will encounter an accident in less than half a day in the future.

At this time, on some human mobile phones, a series of barrages flashed across the screen.

Barrage: "People die at the beginning? It's so cool."

"This sister is very cool. She will probably die in an ugly way in the end."

"What should I do? The new variety show has only just started airing, and I'm already on the chopping block."

"Me in front of me too"
