Reborn with the Infinite World Panel-Chapter 44: Star Survival 5

Nan Chu started slacking off, just digging in one spot.

The other contestants gradually found balls of various colors.

They hadn’t opened them yet, planning to dig them all up first and then open them together for a surprised feeling.

[Why is Nan Chu digging in the same spot?]

[She must not want to keep looking.]

[Nan Chu is probably leaving the resources for the other contestants.]

Nan Chu dug up another red ball and after opening it, she looked at the director.

This director really knows how to create show effects.

The director noticed Nan Chu seeing him and smiled at her.

[Don’t give other contestants a hint, or the show’s effects will be gone! The ratings!]

Nan Chu heard the director’s inner voice and didn’t remind anyone.

The ratings are crucial for the show’s future filming.

After fifty balls were found, the contestants began to open them.

When they opened the red ball, each contestant was stunned.

"Director, this is also a reward!" Hou Ming asked, holding a note.

"I never said it was a reward," the director grinned.

The camera crew zoomed in on the note so that the audience could see what was written on it.

Return one item to the show crew.

Give the show crew one kind of food.

[Haha, the crew really knows how to play, giving food back to them.]

[Nan Chu found a red ball a half hour ago, and after opening it, she didn’t move from her spot. That’s why she started slacking. Good that she didn’t alert the others, great effect.]

[I love seeing the contestants’ shocked faces.]

The note from Nan Chu’s red ball said to give the crew a food item, so she gave them cassava.

After all, she had dug up a lot of cassava.

Other contestants either returned items or gave food.

Nan Chu took her found resources back, a cup of oil, just a paper cup’s worth, not much.

But enough to stir-fry the abalone, with green chili peppers added.

After eating, Nan Chu lay down to rest.

With just a few hours left, she didn’t need to look for more food; she had enough to eat.

[Wow, new contestant!]

[Why introduce a new contestant in the last few hours?]

[The crew wants to stir things up.]

Xue Yifan returned to his rest area and found his food gone.

Aside from Xue Yifan, the food of Wu Jun and a few others was gone too.

This new contestant sneaked into Nan Chu’s resting place; Nan Chu heard the noise and opened her eyes.

Two people came, and one of them had footsteps and breathing sounds unfamiliar, not like the contestants or the crew.

Nan Chu picked up a shovel and stepped out of the cabin.

Seeing a sneaky figure, Nan Chu rushed over with the shovel.

At the last moment of hitting, Nan Chu held back.

Because there was a cameraman following this person.

[Oh my gosh, I thought Nan Chu was really going to hit.]

[How did Nan Chu notice someone coming?]

[Haha, those in front of you don’t know, but Nan Jie has excellent hearing, she must have heard the footsteps.]

[Nan Jie is so mighty!]

The new contestant, Yu Jie, was startled, "Sis, I’m not a bad person, I’m the new contestant."

[Scared me to death, why is this sister so fierce?]

"Oh."

Introducing new contestants near the end seems suspicious.

Nan Chu looked at Yu Jie’s backpack.

Yu Jie looked a bit guilty.

[Could it be they found out he stole the other contestants’ food?]

Stealing food was part of the crew’s plan.

They really know how to create conflicts. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶

[This new contestant is so bad, actually stealing the others’ food.]

[Feels like a setup by the crew.]

"Leave the food here," Nan Chu said with a smile.

"Sis, I found this food myself."

"Oh, then I’m robbing you now," Nan Chu said calmly.

Yu Jie: "..."

[Hahaha!]

[As expected from Nan Jie, she can even talk about robbery.]

[I’m dying of laughter.]

"Hand it over, or don’t blame me for being rude," Nan Chu said with a smile.

Yu Jie’s eyes darted, and the next second, he tried to run, but barely took two steps before Nan Chu caught up.

Nan Chu quickly and decisively snatched Yu Jie’s bag.

"I told you to leave the food, why didn’t you listen? You forced me to take action." Nan Chu said calmly, "See, now that I’ve taken action, you gain nothing from it."

"Sis, all the food is yours," Yu Jie quickly pleaded.

[Damn, this sister is so fierce.]

Yu Jie quickly ran away, and Nan Chu didn’t chase after him.

Nan Chu carried the food back to the other contestants.

A few contestants gathered together.

Zhai Xueying: "This new contestant must be arranged by the crew to intentionally increase our survival challenges."

Wu Jun: "The crew really knows how to stir things up."

Yu Miao: "Luckily, Nan Chu got the food back for me."

Hou Ming: [Is there really a new contestant? Could Nan Chu be making it up?]

They chatted for a while, then left.

When Hou Ming returned to his rest spot, he found his makeshift house had collapsed.

Because the ropes were missing, and a few important pieces of wood were gone too.

Damn!

It was definitely that new contestant’s doing.

Better not let him get caught, or he’ll get a beating.

[The crew surely knows how to stir the pot, specially bringing in a new contestant to increase survival challenges for the others.]

[Yu Jie is also quite adept at dismantling houses.]

[Dying of laughter, you get home to find your house is gone.]

[Poor Brother Hou.]

Aside from Hou Ming, Wu Jun’s house was also gone, dismantled by Yu Jie.

Hou Ming and Wu Jun went searching for Yu Jie.

But the island is large, and Yu Jie hides well, so Hou Ming and Wu Jun didn’t find him.

They could only suppress their anger and return to tidy up their rest spots, because there was still one more night.

Yu Jie’s appearance brought a spike in the live stream audience.

Yu Jie wanted to steal Nan Chu’s food, but Nan Chu stayed at her resting place, giving him no chance.

Hence, Yu Jie had to give up.

After three days, the survival live broadcast ended, and Nan Chu and the rest left the island.

After leaving the island, Nan Chu and the others rested at a hotel for a day before flying back to the country.

Back in the country, Nan Chu received another variety show offer.

It was a mystery investigation show called "Six Six Investigation Bureau."

Six celebrities were invited: Nan Chu, Li Wenya, Su Xiao, Ke Nian, Xia Mingyu, and Shao Zheng.

All of them were actors.

The show is pre-recorded, set to begin after the New Year, giving more than a month to prepare.

Nan Chu thought it was worth accepting, given the high pay.

After discussing work with Zhuang Wenqi, Nan Chu returned home.

After freshening up, Nan Chu called Jiang Han.

"Why not rest a bit after such a long flight?"

"I rested plenty on the plane," Nan Chu said. "How’s work?"

"Lately, quite well," Jiang Han briefly shared work experiences.

The two chatted for a long time before hanging up.

At 7 a.m. the next morning, Nan Chu appeared at Jiang Han’s place.

Nan Chu quietly entered, put down breakfast, and then went to Jiang Han’s room.

As she reached the bedside, Jiang Han opened his eyes.

With a sparkle of surprise in his eyes, "Nan Chu."

"Jiang Han," Nan Chu smiled, "Happy New Year."
