The live broadcast will take place at 8:40 AM on the day of the broadcast.
The athletes from both countries met at the beach.
Jiang Nuo spotted the four people opposite her in the distance and suddenly remembered something. She lightly nudged Si Yan's shoulder, "Hey, why didn't your uncle come? Didn't he say something harsh last time?"
Si Yan slightly raised her chin towards the man in the middle of the four people opposite her, "That person took Si Yong's place and temporarily joined the Wa Country Illusion Arts Association."
Su Yi: "He looks more like Hua Country."
Qi Lin was also certain, "They should be Hua Country; they're quite easy to tell."
Jiang Nuo suddenly realized. "Working for the Mikazuki Family, yet another traitor."
After all, everyone in the Dao Xuan Association knows that the Mikazuki Family needs a constant supply of corpses and blood to sustain the consciousness entities, and many Huaxia people have suffered as a result.
They chatted as they walked towards the bus, and just before boarding, they ran into four people from Wa Country.
Mikazuki Shunsuke was wearing a rather elaborate suit, making it impossible to guess his age. His appearance was very aggressive, but too standard, making it look like he was wearing a mask.
Hello, Jiang Nuo.
His Chinese sounded fairly standard, but his pronunciation was strange, mixed with Wa Country accent.
Jiang Nuo tilted her head. " Mikazuki Shunsuke?"
"Ah... hello."
After saying that, he turned and got into the car, not intending to exchange any more pleasantries.
Mikazuki Shunsuke's smile faltered slightly as he stopped Sano Kurotsuki from rushing forward.
"When filming a program in a foreign country, of course we should follow local customs and let the host get in the car first."
"Yes, sir." Sano Kurotsuki nodded.
After Jiang Nuo and the other three were seated, Mikazuki Shunsuke led them into the car and sat in the back as well.
The bus started moving, and the live broadcast began on time.
[The first one!! Here it comes!]
[I heard that with the servers between the two countries now interconnected, will we be able to see Wa Country netizens' comments on the screen?]
I'm so happy to see Mr. Mikazuki Shunsuke! It makes me feel wonderful!
Ahhh! Mikazuki Hexi look great today, but this dress is even prettier!
[Hahahaha, I'm dying of laughter! I can tell who's Wa Country at a glance.]
Mr. Sano Kurotsuki! Please don't hold back your abilities; let the Hua Country see what you're capable of!
Although no one wanted to talk to anyone else, the introductions still had to be done.
Jiang Nuo listened to them one by one, and felt that Mikazuki Hexi were somewhat hostile towards her.
Just as they were speculating about the reason, they heard Mikazuki Hexi raise their chins high and say, "I'm still Brother Yu's fan, much more so than you guys!"
Jiang Nuo raised an eyebrow, " Brother Yu is...?"
Mikazuki Hexi frowned, " Lin Yu! You killed him!"
Jiang Nuo: "..."
Some people are truly restless even in death.
"Ah, what a coincidence." He forced a smile. "Next."
The tallest-looking man, ruthless and taciturn, was " Sano Kurotsuki, a warrior of Wa Country."
He bumped his fists together, as if showing off his muscles.
Su Yi frowned, turned around and whispered to Qi Lin, "I feel like they're all a bit dim-witted."
Qi Lin chuckled and nodded seriously.
When introducing the last person, Jiang Nuo glanced at Yue Qian several times.
It looks vaguely familiar.
He picked at the fabric of his thigh with his fingers, looked at it a few more times, but still couldn't recognize it.
Finally, I turned my attention back to the fact that this person had a very generic face.
Mikazuki Shunsuke: "I hope the Hua Country can do their best on this trip!"
Jiang Nuo could easily detect the sarcastic tone. She picked at her ear with her pinky finger, leaned on Si Yan's shoulder, and squinted her eyes.
"I've never heard of a perennial Laoliu asking the first-place finisher to cheer them on."
Is this Hua Country swearing?
[These Hua Country are despicable! This pretty boy is definitely swearing in a language we can't understand!]
"I don't understand this, really... you'll just get upset if I tell you."
You don't need to understand, just remember that one and a half hours is three and a half hours, and one Wa Country person is worth three big sabbes!
It's okay if you don't understand; even if you were cured, you'd still just be drooling.
Wa Country netizens:??
Damn it, I recognize every single word in the translation! But something just doesn't feel right!
Welcome everyone to this recording. Let me first introduce the basic information about our destination, " Lost Town."
The director's voice came from inside the car.
" Lost Town is a legendary seaside town where ghosts coexist. The townspeople once vandalized a cemetery, causing vengeful spirits to haunt the town day and night."
"The townspeople devised a way to coexist with the vengeful ghost, and finally found peace. But recently, the number of people Ghost Killing has been increasing, from one per year to one every six months, and now, in the past three months, seven townspeople have died."
The contestants will stay at the Soul Return Inn, working with the innkeeper and his family to solve the mystery of the Ghost Killing and save the townspeople.
"Friendly Match Rules: Players from both countries will conduct their own investigations. The team that first uncovers the reason behind the vengeful ghost's frequent killings and restores peace to the Lost Town will have its association win."
After the introduction, the bus, which had been noisy just moments before, fell silent for a while as everyone digested the rules.
The bus traveled along the coastal road, winding its way through a magical little town.
Looking out the car window, the town was decorated entirely in a medieval style, with tall, pointed houses and strange decorations and symbols everywhere you looked.
Because of its proximity to the sea, the sky was covered with thick clouds, making it feel like one had stumbled into a mysterious world.
The bus stopped in a square.
As everyone got off the bus, all the silent pedestrians in the square turned around and stared intently at them.
Jiang Nuo nearly bumped into a pedestrian standing by the door.
"Ouch."
He quickly looked away, then stared back at him with wide eyes.
After staring at each other for a few seconds, Jiang Nuo's eyes started to sting. A middle-aged man ran out of the hotel and put a hat on each of them.
In an instant, the wide-eyed pedestrian continued walking as if nothing had happened, as did the other silent pedestrians.
Jiang Nuo blinked, touched her hat, and entered the hotel with the others.
"Hello, I'm the owner here. Just call me Brother Xia."
The middle-aged man was tall and thin, with a scholarly air about him. "Today is the town's prayer day; everyone must wear a hat when they go out."
No wonder they were staring at us.
Qi Lin suddenly realized, and touched the hat as well, making sure there was nothing strange before continuing to wear it.
Mikazuki Shunsuke surveyed the inn's decor, finding a variety of mysterious ornaments, just like the town itself.
"You must be tired from your journey. Let me arrange rooms for you to rest first," the owner said, pulling out a few keys from a drawer.
Si Yan put his arm around Jiang Nuo and said, "Let's share a room."
The boss paused, glanced at the main entrance, and lowered his voice, "What is the relationship between the two of you?"
Jiang Nuo noticed his strange behavior and lowered her voice, "Couple."
"Oh dear, that won't do." The boss quickly waved his hand, his expression serious. "You guys need to be careful. If anyone asks about your relationship, you must say you're brothers who share a room."
Same-sex couples are not allowed in our town.
Jiang Nuo tilted her head. "Okay." Strange rules.
