The beautiful mage was kidnapped by the contracted beast again

After the new members joined, the originally tense atmosphere suddenly became much more harmonious. The director and staff who saw this scene backstage all breathed a sigh of relief.

After much persuasion, the fight was over and the furniture and the director's secret fund were saved.

The director couldn't help but sigh: "This kid is born with a charismatic aura. When he comes, all the kids are secretly looking at him."

"Even kids are attracted by looks," the staff member said with a smile. "He's so handsome. It's hard for me not to stare at him."

The director nodded. "That way we can move that part up a bit. These kids have powerful superpowers at such a young age, and they always think they're the best in the world. We need to let them know that there are people out there who are better than them."

Otherwise, with a bunch of disobedient troublemakers here, it would be difficult for them to film.

Another hour later, the last group of members arrived at the scene.

As soon as Hagadi entered the door, he went straight to Jiang Liujing. His target was very clear and his figure was as fast as a small whirlwind. The staff and adults were unable to stop him.

Then I heard him running and shouting: "Jiang Liujing, I'm coming to find you!"

He had a loud voice and was not at all shy about talking to other people present.

An acquaintance? A friend of this beautiful kid? Someone who had come to accompany him on the show?

Mo Ya looked down at Jiang Liujing curiously, but found that the child who had been smiling sweetly just now now had an inexplicably stiff expression.

Well...if I had to describe it, it would probably be a feeling that is difficult to put into words.

Mo Ya remembered that one of his celebrity colleagues had the same expression when he was chased to his doorstep by a fanatical private fan.

Before Jiang Liujing could say anything, a figure took the initiative to stop the person.

His short red hair fluttered in the air, and cold words came out of his mouth: "Don't you see that he doesn't want you to get close?"

The boy's slightly taller figure now became an impenetrable shield. Standing in front, he almost completely blocked the figure behind him. No matter from which angle one approached Jiang Liujing, one had to pass him first.

Hagadi was forced to brake. He had originally treated the others as nothing, but now he had to face this sudden obstacle. He frowned and his aura turned cold. "Who are you?"

He didn't remember this person appearing around Jiang Liujing before.

Chi Wen remained motionless, raised his chin and said, "You don't need to know."

Jiang Liujing was blocked behind, looking at Chi's back in a daze.

The boy's body wasn't particularly broad, but his unshakable posture was that of a giant.

This was the first time other children had argued over him and Hagadi. Most of them, knowing Hagadi's identity, had backed off. He hadn't expected that the person who had just told him he wanted to compete with him would be the first to speak out.

Jiang Liujing put away his usual smile, lowered his eyes, and his pupils flickered imperceptibly for a moment.

"That's something you still need to know."

Just as the atmosphere was becoming dangerous again, the director's voice suddenly came from the radio overhead.

At the same time, all the lights above everyone's heads went out.

Amid the exclamations, the room fell into darkness, with only the increasingly passionate voice from the radio continuing to be heard.

"Dear guardians, dear children! All seven guest groups for this episode of our variety show have just arrived, and filming is about to officially begin! Now, let's move on to the first segment of this episode: rescuing the parents!"

The lights came on again, but the room suddenly felt much emptier.

Jiang Liujing suddenly turned his head and found that Mo Ya and Xita, who were originally very close to him, had disappeared without a trace.

At such a close distance and in such a short time, he had no idea who took them away!

Not only him, all the children showed surprised and disbelief when they found out that their guardian was missing.

Chi and Hagadi, who were originally confronting each other, restrained their postures and began to observe their surroundings vigilantly.

This seemingly ordinary villa does not seem to be as safe as they thought.

Liu An, who was in the corner, finally spoke up and asked the camera, "Shouldn't the first part of a normal program be a self-introduction?"

"That's right, now we're introducing ourselves. In the process of finding a way to rescue our parents, you must understand each person's superpowers and personalities so that you can work together to complete the mission."

The director's matter-of-fact voice caused the children to fall into silence.

It seems to make sense, but I always feel something is wrong.

Wen Xun glanced at Chi and Hagadi and made an irritable "tsk".

To cooperate with these two guys, and the goal is to save Chu Zhou, who is completely incompatible with him? The production team is dreaming!

He asked directly to the camera, "Can't we just give up on the rescue? We're all adults, we should be able to save ourselves when faced with difficulties. It's really useless to ask us kids for help."

The seven adults who were suddenly taken away and locked in a closed room: "..."

There was an old TV in the room they were in, which was broadcasting real-time images from the villa. The volume was turned up high, and everyone could hear Wen Xun's words clearly.

Mo Ya glanced at Chu Zhou sympathetically and said, "This child you're taking care of seems a bit difficult to manage."

Chu Zhou smiled calmly as always: "Same here."

Chi, who was brought by Mo Ya, was not much better.

"Big brother won't say anything about second brother, so the two of you should stop pulling each other's hair. Even though what that kid said wasn't nice, he wasn't wrong. As adults, we have to put in some effort."

The speaker was Liu An's parent, a young woman who claimed to be Liu An's cousin, Liu Lanting. Despite her youth, she was already a core member of management at a large, publicly listed company. She had taken her annual leave today specifically to spend time with her younger cousin.

Xita nodded in agreement: "Miss Liu is right, we must also work hard."

Elsewhere, the director answered Wen Xun's question: "Of course, we respect everyone's opinion. You can choose to give up. But this is part of the demonstration of your ability. If you give up the rescue, your group will receive zero points for this stage. Your points will affect your final ranking. Now, children, you can make your choice. Those who want to give up stand to the left, and those who have decided to rescue stand to the right."

Wen Xun frowned, looking dissatisfied.

He was just as competitive as Chi, and it was impossible for him to admit defeat without even competing. But being forced into doing something like this made him very unhappy.

While he was struggling, Jiang Liujing had already stood to the right without hesitation.

Chi saw him approaching, and with his feet quicker than his brain, he followed. After they both passed, Hagadi naturally didn't want to be left behind. In a blink of an eye, the three of them were standing in a row.

The two girls and Liu An also came over quickly.

In less than three minutes, Wen Xun suddenly realized that he seemed to be the only one still there.

Wen Xun: “?”

Wasn't he a troublemaker? Where's he? Has he become obedient so quickly?

Wen Xun snorted, and although reluctant, he quickly walked to the right.

Looking at the images from the camera, the director nodded with satisfaction. The children reached a consensus much faster than he had imagined.

He spoke into the microphone, "Excellent, since everyone has chosen rescue, let's officially begin explaining the rules of the game. This villa has three floors and a total of twenty-four rooms. Your parents are locked in one of these rooms. The room is locked inside and out. This is a special lock made by a master. You must find the correct key on both sides to open the door. Also, don't try to break down the door violently. I know some of you are very strong, but there is a bomb buried in the room. If the door is not opened correctly, the bomb will explode, and the rescue will still be considered a failure."

He clenched the hands hanging at his sides.

He always felt that the director was calling on him.

"How to get the key?" Hagadi asked coldly.

"The villa has been set up with various traps. Find them and solve them to obtain clues or props. Remember, you only have three hours. If you can't find the correct room number and key within three hours, the rescue operation will still fail. The same goes for adults. If you can't find your key within three hours, the children won't be able to rescue you even if they can't find their key."

"Isn't it a test for the children? Why are you so strict with us too?" Mo Ya covered his face with his hands in sadness.

When he was hired, the only requirement for him was "accompany".

The director smiled. "This is to prevent the children from thinking you're useless adults. Come on, guardians! It would be embarrassing if you were slower than the children in finding the key."

"I already had a premonition. If they found it and we didn't, we would be laughed at for a whole year after the show was released." Sister Liu sighed.

He forced himself to cheer up and smiled at the others, "Everyone, let's work hard together."
