Chapter 281 The Feeling of 50%

Although she felt a little sorry to say this, but... for some reason, she was more willing to trust Bai Youwei's judgment than Li Li's analysis.

She had noticed the difference in Bai Youwei from the first time they met, and wanted to find a chance to get to know her, but was interrupted several times by Su Man and was unable to meet him head-on.

After being in the entertainment industry for so many years, the reason why Zhu Shu has always been able to keep away from any negative information and has access to first-class film, television, variety shows and other resources is due to her ability to always keenly look for strong people to rely on - this is almost her instinct.

Bai Youwei was the "strong one" she perceived.

Of course, seeking attachment is also the sad thing about Zhu Shu.

She knew this very well. It's just that she has become accustomed to it over the years. If she were suddenly asked to change her way of life, she would be at a loss.

Just like this changing world.

…

Bai Youwei looked at her without saying a word, her eyes a little sharp for no reason.

Zhu Shu understood that it was a kind of alertness developed over many years, like a conditioned reflex, just like a cat that tenses its spine alertly when meeting a stranger.

Zhu Shu made her expression look as sincere as possible.

However, the effect is not great.

Bai Youwei still looked lukewarm and replied expressionlessly: "I don't speak because I haven't found the answer yet."

Zhu Shu's heart skipped a beat, "Not a bead?"

Bai Youwei lowered her eyes and looked at the damp wooden floor, "...I hope so, but if you ask me how I feel, I'd say 50%."

Five percent.

Zhu Shu's heart suddenly went cold.

Fifty percent, isn’t it only half possible?

Lu Ang next to him cursed softly.

Not scolding Bai Youwei.

Instead, he is cursing this damn world.

…

Yan Qingwen led people to erect several large bed boards on the stairs leading to the attic, and placed some furniture to fix them.

With the lessons learned from the previous round, he upgraded the mechanism and used the rusty ax outside the door on the first floor.

Because the ax is old, it has been detached from the wooden handle, and is wrapped with a rope alone. One end is suspended in the air, and the other is tied to the beam. Once the fish monster breaks the bed board, the ax will be affected by gravity and hit the fish monster!

For such a huge monster, a rusty ax can have very little effect. Even if it can buy them a few more seconds to escape, they are considered lucky.

everything's ready.

Shen Mo took the collected beads and stood by the stairs on the second floor, while others stood scattered in the corridor and stairs.

Shen Mo glanced at his companions behind him, then at Bai Youwei at the door of the attic, and then his eyes fell on the water again——

"Come in, guest."

There was no sound, perhaps because the sound of the door opening was also drowned out by the water.

The water began to rise and spread, covering the second-floor floors and the stairs leading to the attic.

Everyone retreated all the way.

When the water flooded one meter, they retreated one meter, and when the water flooded two meters, they retreated two meters... When the stairs were halfway up, the lights on the second floor flickered a few times and went out.

The room was dark, with only the light from the attic barely illuminating the view.

At the same time, there was a heavy sound coming from downstairs, like something stumbling up in the water...

...Bang!

That thing hit the two large wooden boards that Yan Qingwen had erected on the stairs.

The board was teetering but did not fall under the tension of the rope.

The fish monster sank motionless at the bottom of the water.

Just like the last round, I don’t know what is waiting for me.

When the flashlight beam shines on the water, only a blurry black shadow can be seen.

Shen Mo walked into the water with the beads.

step……

One more step...

He and the water monster were close at hand.

Bai Youwei watched him sink deeper and deeper into the water, her heart almost rising to her throat. She wanted to call him back, but she opened her mouth but no sound came out.

Suddenly there was a bang!

The fish monster jumped up! A huge splash!
