Chapter 309: Murder Party
Translator: Lonelytree
The person who opened the door was a woman wearing a duck hood. There was another person wearing a penguin hood sitting in the room.
“Sorry for being late! I had a business deal and got delayed. Have you guys started already?”
“Kerria, you should know that this live broadcast is very important.”
Two computers were placed before the 3 people. They were broadcasting the videos from the deck in real-time.
The girl called Kerria didn’t continue the conversation. Instead, she turned to the woman who opened the door for her. “You’re Director Orchid yes? Why didn’t you tell me we’re holding an animal-themed cosplay party?”
“Hmph, little girl, I’ve already told you that caution is crucial. We don’t know each other’s identity, so even if something happens, there can be no way we can implicate each other.”
“You’re already planning for that even though nothing has happened yet. As expected of an old fox.”
“You have no right to comment on that since you’re wearing a hood yourself.”
“Well, since I can’t comment on that, I’ll comment on the fact that your hands couldn’t stop shaking when you were trying to sew up that girl’s eyelids last time. Speaking of, how did you manage to drill a hole into someone’s head without making a sound?” Kerria’s eyes fell on the AC remote. She did something to fry the battery. She wanted to see who had the better endurance, these people or herself.
“Stop wasting time with such nonsense. Fix your eyes on the live stream. Go and check how much the odds are now?”
“The show hasn’t even started yet, why are you so worried?”
“Didn’t you say we’re partnering up with an old friend? Why are there only 9000 people online and the total bet hasn’t even reached 7 million.” Orchid was impatient. She wanted to finish the things here as soon as possible and leave.
“Stop being so anxious. The big fish hasn’t even arrived yet. Furthermore, we have already lost He Yan. Thanks to that, our source of income has dwindled. Consider this a stopgap until we can find something better.”
Kerria didn’t feel like participating in the conversation. She sneered when she looked at the betting odds on the monitor.?The audience this time is going to be hard to please, looks like I’ll have to do something about that.?
“Patience is a virtue. Things will heat up after the prologue. Is there something wrong with this room? Why is it so hot?”
“I’ll go take a look!” Orchid grabbed the AC controller. “The controller has died. We need fresh batteries.”
“I’ll get room service then.”
Kerria looked at them and smiled. “And have the room service people see the things we have in the room? Interesting.”
The person who was heading to the door halted.
“Hello, my dear viewers. Welcome to the one and only murder live broadcast on the internet! Here you can bet on who is going to murder whom and who is going to die! The minimum bet is 4 grams of gold plus 0.1 bitcoin. The maximum is unlimited. There are all sorts of bets available. We have a diverse cast, providing you with the most realistic and immersive experience. Please drop your bets. All the information of the players has been uploaded. Feel free to go over them.”
Information on Chu Guang, Zeng Jia, Lin An, Qian Yao all appeared on the monitor.
A viewer asked, “What if no one dies? Are you going to return us our bets?”
“Don’t worry about that. We have provided the participants with plenty of motives and tools to ensure the events will be interesting. If no one dies at the end of the show, our boss will commit suicide on the live broadcast!”
When Kerria said that, Orchid’s eyes under the hood rolled upwards.
“Jesus, it’s so hot. This is like hell on earth.”
“Oh~ I don’t feel it’s that hot. Sister Orchid, you can remove the hood if you want~” Kerria smiled brightly.
“Orchid, you could have easily murdered all these people. Why set up this complicated livestream?”
“Because this is more fun. And people will pay to see something fun. Plus, if I really want them dead, I could have sent you to join the livestream. That would solve a lot of problems. Or is that what you want?”
When the woman on the sofa heard this, she sat up. “Of course not! Planning a murder and committing murder are completely different. Do you really think I don’t know the law?”
“Wow!” Kerria suddenly stood up, attracting Orchid and Edelweiss’ attention.
“What is it?” The two moved to the computers to see what had shocked Kerria so.
“Someone has just bet seven million!”

Epilepsy is a brain dysfunction disease. Zhang Hong was at the age where there was a relatively high rate of onset.. When Mo Li saw him that day at the home, she already knew the method required to cure him.
