Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Li Yidao stared solemnly at Big Honeybee.
After a moment of daze, she swallowed and nodded.
She understood…
But what should she do now?
At that moment, the host’s voice on stage rang out.
“Now, let’s welcome our today’s Best Actress! Mi!”
“Now let’s invite our Best Actress to come on stage and accept the award!”
Both of them turned their gaze to the stage simultaneously.
At the same time, everyone started applauding.
The audience in the live stream also erupted in excitement.
Many fans of Big Honeybee were eagerly waiting for this final moment!
“Our Big Honeybee is finally coming out!”
“Best leading actress! All the voices of doubt this time can go to hell!” “Our Big Honeybee is the best! I love you, Honey, just like a mouse loves rice!” “Big Honeybee, the Best Actress, well-deserved!”
“Huh? Look at Big Honeybee’s expression; it seems a bit off, doesn’t it?” “Yeah, something does seem off. What’s going on? What’s wrong with Big Honeybee d”
“Look… she seems to be saying something to Brother Dao. No, Brother Dao seems to have said something to her.”
“Do you… still remember what Brother Dao said before?”
“What did Brother Dao say? He just followed Big Honeybee, and he… d*mn!”
“F*ck! Right! Brother Dao followed Big Honeybee and predicted that there would be a problem with the film festival!” “So today, Brother Dao came to the film festival venue…”
“Really? Could there be danger approaching?”
“Most likely, look at Big Honeybee’s expression!”
“Big Honeybee is scared! Something is definitely not right!” “So nervous! So excited!”
“No, don’t let anything happen; all my favorite stars are here.”
“No! Nothing can happen, absolutely not. Pray!”
“…Pray”
“Pray! ”
“Pray! ”
For a moment, Big Honeybee stood still, as if she hadn’t heard the cheers from the stage.
The main reason was that she really didn’t know what to do now.
At this moment, another actress who knew Big Honeybee quietly reminded her, “Sis Honey, it’s time for you to go on stage and accept the award.”
Others in the vicinity also spoke up to remind her. After all, the cameras were all on her now.
The host, displaying his professional hosting skills, jokingly said, “It seems our Big Honeybee is having a bit of difficulty digesting this good news for a moment. Let’s once again, with warm applause, invite our Honey to come on stage and accept the award!”
“Clap clap clap clap!”
Continuous applause erupted instantly. This was the Best Actress award, arguably the highest honor.
At this moment, Big Honeybee finally snapped out of it. She adjusted her expression and, as if making a significant decision, nodded firmly at Li Yidao beside her.
Then, amidst the congratulations and cheers, she walked slowly onto the stage.
However, what everyone failed to notice was that Big Honeybee was actually forcing herself at this moment.
When had she ever encountered such a crisis before?
Brother Dao’s reputation as the Grim Reaper had long become a consensus!
If one didn’t believe in Brother Dao, it was tantamount to courting disaster!
As Big Honeybee took each step onto the stage, the host continued, “Now, let’s listen to the award acceptance speech from our Best Actress!”
The audience below erupted in thunderous applause.
In contrast to the cheers and excitement at the venue, the live stream chat had gone wild! Was Brother Dao joking with his warning?
People were frantically dialing emergency numbers. In an instant, the entire system of the capital started operating!
In Unit 36’s branch in the capital, the familiar office space remained, now occupied by only two individuals.
Initially, one of them had planned to lead a team to the film festival venue, while the other was in charge of coordination.
However, when they reported this matter to their superiors, they were surprisingly instructed not to take any action.
Someone would handle the crisis for them. This left them stunned. Such an unknown force was beyond their capabilities to deal with.
Now, they were being told that someone else would resolve it.
Could it be that the headquarters had arranged personnel in advance?
Unlikely. Despite their current relatively low status and position, they would surely be informed if any personnel were dispatched.
After all, there were connections in the shadows.
“Ding ding.”
While the two were contemplating, the sound of a ringing phone interrupted their thoughts.
“Hello?” answered the phone.
On the other end, a cold voice spoke, “The situation has changed. Assemble at rendezvous point 6, bring your sealed weapons.”
“Beep, beep, beep.”
The message was brief but unquestionable.
This phone call left the two individuals exchanging shocked glances. Sealed weapons were their term for unconventional weaponry, usually avoided due to the severe consequences they could entail if used.
These weapons were restricted even in life-threatening situations, as integrating their abilities with these sealed weapons could lead to unpredictable outcomes.
However, now they were being instructed to bring their weapons. This signaled that a more severe crisis had emerged.
Inside the main venue of the film festival, Big Honeybee had already stepped onto the stage.
She took the microphone from the host, yet her entire demeanor remained silent.
There was no sign of excitement or joy on her face, leaving everyone perplexed.
In theory, Big Honeybee should be elated at this moment.
Ever since she became her own boss, she endured hardship over a long period.
She had faced numerous difficulties and shed countless tears. And now, everything was finally paying off.
However, why did she seem so distracted?
As Big Honeybee took hold of the microphone, the entire venue fell into silence.
Everyone was anticipating her speech.
Yet, as a full minute passed, even the host struggled to maintain composure and was about to remind her when Big Honeybee seemed to gather her resolve.
In a low but resolute voice that echoed through the venue, she declared, “There… is a bomb…”
In the audience, Li Yidao was momentarily stunned. “A bomb? I didn’t mention it to Big Honeybee. How did she figure it out?”
But then, he realized—Big Honeybee was smart.
Regardless of the actual danger, she chose to shock everyone with a reason compelling enough to necessitate an immediate evacuation.
This way, she could ensure everyone’s safety.
As for the aftermath, Big Honeybee couldn’t afford to worry about it now.
She knew that even if this turned out to be a misunderstanding, if the danger wasn’t discovered in the end, she might be in serious trouble.
Playing with people’s emotions in such a grand event had effectively sealed her fate.
Nevertheless, she went ahead with it, resolute and unwavering.
The entire venue began an urgent evacuation in the shortest possible time. Not only that, but police cars, fire trucks, and ambulances, among others, quickly assembled here!
This could be attributed to the power of the vast online community.
Even if people didn’t have a clear target, when the number of calls to emergency services reached a certain level, it naturally drew attention!
Meanwhile, as everyone urgently left, Li Yidao, who had just exited the venue, suddenly turned around. His gaze focused on the location of the underground parking garage!
Just now, he experienced a loss of 46 years of lifespan! Someone wanted to harm him, and the Grim Reaper’s protection backfired! Was he really the target?
He could sense that the source of the crisis was in the underground parking
gal age.
He took a deep breath, glancing deeply at it without going to investigate because it was unnecessary.
He noticed that Big Honeybee’s death notification disappeared again.
However, Li Yidao still had many doubts.
Did his Grim Reaper’s protection really eliminate such a significant crisis?
If he had directly consumed a thousand years or even several hundred years of lifespan just now, he might believe it.
But over forty years? It was just one person’s lifespan.
This person could only be a pawn. Yet, why was the crisis eliminated?
Furrowing his brow, Li Yidao suddenly seemed to have a realization.
Could it be that others were involved in this matter?
