It’s Monday again.

The second episode of "Limited Youth" indoor spin-off is here.

This ti, the filming location is on the other side of the base, in a building made of shipping containers.

Yu Xia received a notification from the production team in advance, saying that this episode would lean more towards physical activities, so today she wore a sports outfit.

The brothers here this ti are different from the last batch, Xie Qingci and so others, who appeared twice in a row, are not here this ti, but Pei Lu and Song Xi, who missed the last episode, are here.

Everyone was almost there, standing cluelessly in front of the shipping container house, looking at the mailbox in front of the stairs.

No host, no electronic voice, no hints, it feels like this episode is quite challenging.

Shu Ran was itching to try, she’s quite used to unexpected situations like this.

She was just about to reach out for the mailbox when the cara suddenly pulled away, and a staff mber hurriedly ca up to say sothing to her.

A brother with low blood sugar couldn’t participate in this episode’s ga, so they found Wei Yaoyao to replace him temporarily.

Xie Qingci has been controversial lately, it’s inappropriate to openly invite him again, and Ning Yunchao didn’t want to appear in the spin-off three tis in a row and get scolded by viewers. Considering his status, the production team didn’t dare insist. Wei Yaoyao is the best replacent choice.

However, with this sudden replacent, so trigger-happy netizens are bound to scold Wei Yaoyao a bit.

Shu Ran frowned slightly but said nothing.

Once Wei Yaoyao arrived, panting, and the cara refocused on them, Shu Ran smiled and comnted to Yu Xia:

"These brothers are too hard-working, training so intensely and not eating well, now they’re hypoglycemic. It’s such a pity. The production team should slot that brother into the next spin-off episode."

Now that it’s been said, the production team had no choice but to agree.

Yu Xia laughed too and turned to pat Wei Yaoyao on the shoulder: "Yeah, your training is intense, don’t cut back too much. You just ca from the rehearsal room, right? All sweaty from dancing, thanks for filling in."

Both of them managed to excuse Wei Yaoyao while securing another chance for the brother with low blood sugar; the production team couldn’t voice any objections even if they wanted to.

This is a live broadcast, once words are spoken, they’re like spilled water, everyone online could hear it.

Wei Yaoyao bent over rapidly, whispering thanks.

Song Xi soon brought Wei Yaoyao over with laughter and chatter, and Pei Lu joined in the conversation as well, everyone was having a harmonious ti.

"This ga feels more like an outdoor one," Song Xi comnted to Wei Yaoyao, "I heard your last outdoor ga was a lot of fun."

Wei Yaoyao smiled sweetly like a sugar bean: "Which episode wasn’t fun? But this ti is special, there’s no one announcing the rules."

Shu Ran observed the surroundings for a mont and still focused her attention on that mailbox.

"Feels out of place, there must be sothing inside."

She reached her hand in and pulled out a task card.

Everyone crowded together to see.

Yu Xia recognized the words imdiately, mainly because they were so big.

[Enter]

"Enter?" Yu Xia looked up at the blue shipping container with a door open on the stairs, "Are we supposed to go inside the container?"

Yu Kuang: "It must be, there are no other doors here, it fits the indoor ga the, let’s go in and see."

A group lined up to walk up the stairs, and Yu Kuang, leading the way, opened the door with a creak, making a spine-chilling sound like an old rusty gate.

Yu Xia suddenly had a bad feeling.

After entering, before anyone could marvel at how Syrian-style this container room was, the door behind them suddenly slamd shut with a bang.

It startled everyone.

Shu Ran and so brothers scread out loud.

"What’s going on?"

"Scared to death, the door slam was too loud, were the staff rushing to get off work?"

"I’m still clueless, what is this episode’s ga about?"

Yu Xia swallowed nervously, glancing around, and then the lights went out.

Only the faint light seeping through the cracked shipping container kept them barely able to see each other.

Everyone felt uneasy now.

"What the... ow!"

Yu Kuang scread, followed by Shu Ran and Pei Lu screaming too.

"Ah, ah, what’s that? What’s that?!"

The sudden screams startled the others into crowding together quickly, having no idea why they scread.

Yu Xia thought she had quite a bit of courage and asked in a loud voice, "Yu Kuang, what did you see?"

"...The projector," he said with difficulty, "it’s flashing on and off."

Speechless.

"A projector in standby flickers of course... I thought you saw a ghost."

Yu Kuang shuddered.

This environnt, just hearing that word is terrifying.

"Welco, everyone, to this place."

A sudden all-around electronic voice echoed within the container.

Unlike before, this electronic voice sounded like an indifferent old man in his seventies or eighties, eerie and chilly, making the back of your head feel like it’s freezing.

Everyone couldn’t help but huddle together.

Suddenly, the wall beside them lit up, shocking this bunch of weaklings into drawing a sharp breath and turning towards the "mother hen" leading the way.

It was a projection, displaying equipnt instructions that belonged in a sci-fi movie, with an accompanying pitch-black skull icon.

Then the eerie voice continued:

"This ga: Horror Escape Room, Test Run First Attempt. Players need to clear nine rooms to find clues and locate the exit. Successfully clearing all rooms will be considered a win, and each trainee will earn nine points."

"But each level is ti-limited, and failing to find the next level’s entrance in ti will result in one player being randomly selected to be eliminated, earning no points."

"The ga starts now!"

Cold and eerie, as if this weren’t just a ga but a sinister reality where not clearing ans a random player faces doom.

Yu Xia rubbed the goosebumps on her arms, feeling a chill inside.

"Horror Escape Room, how scary is it? Anyone played an escape room before?"

Song Xi’s voice was still composed: "I’ve played it before, but I don’t think it was this realistic."

Wei Yaoyao and Yu Kuang abandoned the roles of junior and ntor, huddling and trembling together.

"I’m the kind of person who needs three big lights on to go to the bathroom at night, this ga isn’t friendly to ."

"Did they get a voice actor teacher to record that electronic voice on purpose? It sounds like a horror movie... I don’t dare to imagine the rooms ahead."

Shu Ran bravely tried to stay calm: "It’s okay, considering the audience’s tolerance, I think it won’t be that terri... aaaaah!"

Yu Xia was focusing on listening to her when a blast of soprano pierced her brain and then she was held tightly.

"Loosen, loosen a bit! Shu Ran! I’m getting eliminated by your strong arms before the ga even starts!"

Shu Ran wasn’t concerned about that, the other wall suddenly displayed a red countdown tir, like a bomb ready to explode, scaring her so much she didn’t dare open her eyes.

Yu Xia struggled to lift her head from her collarbone and saw, her eyebrows raised, followed by Wei Yaoyao’s scream—

"Oh no, only fifteen minutes! Hurry, find the key!"
