Rebirth of the Cannon Fodder in the Entertainment Circle

Chapter 82 - 82 82 Dont worry Im not that stupid

?Chapter 82: Chapter 82 Don’t worry, I’m not that stupid Chapter 82: Chapter 82 Don’t worry, I’m not that stupid Han Chi felt that Luo Ning made a lot of sense.

“Okay, let’s go with the second plan.”

“It’s just that many of our own people can’t shoulder burdens or lend a hand. Bringing them to a rescue is like sending sheep into the tiger’s mouth.”

There were more than forty guests and trainees combined here. Although there’s strength in numbers, the opposition might be extremely vicious criminals, and more people would only mean more deaths.

Luo Ning had already thought it through, “The three mercenaries will stay behind to look after the rest, and I, along with Mr. Lu, will come with you to rescue them.”

“Is the four of us enough? I suspect they may have guns,” said Han Chi.

He and Fu Yunbing were carrying guns, but if there were a lot of them, rescuing wouldn’t be possible; they might even end up sacrificing their own.

Luo Ning raised her hand, pointing at herself, and said with a confident smile, “Have you forgotten what I do?”

“You’re a star, right?” Han Chi was confused for a moment. Did Luo Ning have some hidden identity? Or was she like them?

Seeing Han Chi’s imagination running wild, Luo Ning said, somewhat amused and frustrated, “I’m a Feng Shui Master, remember?”

“I can use special methods to help. It’s actually more risky if too many of us go, we might tip them off. Just the four of us can move more freely.”

On the way back, Lu Xun had said that if there was any action, he wanted to be a part.

Luo Ning had seen him in action and knew he was quite skilled, so she agreed.

After thinking for a moment, Han Chi said, “Okay, let’s settle on that.”

He then asked, “Should we tell the others?”

“My suggestion is not to tell them yet, better to avoid panic and extra trouble.”

Anyway, those people couldn’t help much. Telling them might even lead to more trouble if they got scared and didn’t obey orders.

Luo Ning nodded, “Alright.”

“Is the live broadcast also out of signal?” she asked.

Han Chi nodded, “Yes, the cameramen discovered this morning that they couldn’t connect to the live broadcast, and the signal jammers they brought couldn’t function either.”

Otherwise, they could have used the live broadcast to call for help.

“There must be a signal jammer on this island,” he added.

After thinking for a moment, Luo Ning said, “I’ll try to continue the live broadcast, and you guys try to send out a signal for help.”

“Those people are definitely watching us. If we continue the broadcast as usual, they won’t guess that we know about the kidnapping of the crew members, and it will be easier for the four of us to act.”

They would just think there was a problem with their jamming device.

Han Chi looked at Luo Ning, astonished, “You can keep the live broadcast going? How are you going to do that?”

“Just make an anti-jamming code, but even if I explained, you wouldn’t understand,” Luo Ning shrugged.

Han Chi: “…”

“If we can restore the live broadcast, that would naturally be best.”

He then asked, “But won’t it be a problem if the four of us don’t appear on the live broadcast?”

Luo Ning replied, “We’ll tell the audience there was a problem with the live broadcast signal, and now there is only one camera position active. Later, we’ll form a separate team to look for food and let the camera follow the others.”

Han Chi nodded, “That could work.”

After the three of them had discussed everything, Ji Xinghang came over.

He looked at Luo Ning and asked, “Has something happened?”

He had felt that something wasn’t right.

Luo Ning didn’t hide anything and told him everything.

Ji Xinghang was extremely shocked, “Our luck is unheard of; who’d have thought we’d run into such big trouble.”

“I’m going with you to rescue them,” he said, not feeling reassured about Luo Ning and the others going on their own.

Luo Ning shook her head. “No need. You have a more important task at hand.”

Ji Xinghang didn’t understand. “What task?”

“Continue the live broadcast with the other guests, and try to create some trouble to attract the attention of that group of people,” Luo Ning suggested.

“But I’m worried about your safety,” Ji Xinghang frowned.

Luo Ning glared at him. “Just tell me whether you’re going to follow the plan or not.”

“I’ve made a significant breakthrough in Mystical Technique recently, so I can definitely protect myself. You don’t need to worry about my safety,” she added.

Seeing Luo Ning’s persistence, Ji Xinghang could only nod reluctantly. “Okay, I’ll listen to you.”

“How exactly do you propose we cause trouble? I need to attract the kidnappers’ attention as much as possible,” he asked.

In a low voice, Luo Ning said, “Create some problems for Bo Xiangxiang, it’s best if she gets injured or something.”

Ji Xinghang was taken aback. “Just cause trouble for her?”

Luo Ning raised an eyebrow. “Why, can’t bear to do it?”

Ji Xinghang immediately explained, “Of course I can, I just don’t understand how causing trouble for her will attract the kidnappers’ attention?”

He didn’t feel the slightest bit of sympathy for Bo Xiangxiang at the moment.

In the past, there would have been a voice that popped up, making it impossible for him to agree.

But ever since he started wearing the immobilization charm drawn by Luo Ning, that voice and the uncontrollable urge to be kind to Bo Xiangxiang hadn’t surfaced again.

Luo Ning spoke the truth: “I noticed that yesterday she was constantly making undercover signals on the road, deliberately revealing our direction and the cave’s location, which is why I suspect she knows the kidnappers on the island.”

She was puzzled by the sudden increase in Bo Xiangxiang’s Luck Value the night they returned but now she had a rough idea of what had happened.

That night, when Bo Xiangxiang ran off in the wrong direction and got lost, she must have met someone and managed to gain their help, which led to a sudden increase in her Luck.

The arrows left on the trees must have been instructed by that person.

Ji Xinghang didn’t doubt Luo Ning’s words, he was just shocked. “She actually knows the kidnappers on the island? If we control her, could we make the kidnappers wary?”

Han Chi also hadn’t expected Bo Xiangxiang to purposefully leave signals for the other side the day before, which explained why those three had appeared outside the cave the previous night.

“That’s seriously treacherous,” he said, feeling an inherent dislike for such people.

Lu Xun had already heard about it from Luo Ning in the morning, so his expression was the most composed.

Luo Ning continued, “We don’t know how many kidnappers there are, how many firearms they have, and how deeply involved Bo Xiangxiang is with them, so controlling her is unwise.”

The key point was that the woman had a protagonist’s aura; trying to control her could unexpectedly complicate things.

“Just let her get injured or something; we’ll first scope out the kidnappers’ lair to see if a rescue is possible, if not, we’ll move on to the next plan,” Luo Ning said to Ji Xinghang.

Ji Xinghang nodded. “Alright, I’ll do as you say.”

His voice carried a hint of indulgence, which prompted Han Chi to sweep his gaze over Ji Xinghang and Luo Ning.

Luo Ning reminded him, “In front of the live broadcast camera, it’s best if it looks like an accident. Don’t do it yourself.”

“Better keep an eye on her so she doesn’t get the chance to contact those people again.”

She was afraid Ji Xinghang might do something foolish.

“Relax, I’m not that stupid,” said Ji Xinghang, feeling somewhat disheartened. Why did Ningning have so little faith in him now?

At that moment, the others also came out of the cave one after another, and Luo Ning and her group walked back.

Luo Ning approached the cameraman. “Let me try connecting to the live broadcast.”

The cameraman was at a loss, so he stepped aside. “Alright, you try.”

He didn’t think Luo Ning could solve the network connection issue, but he had to give her the opportunity to try.
