Water splashed up into the sky.

Wei Shi got off the boat first, followed by Wu Jin, who was still wearing Contestant Wei’s combat jacket as he jumped down.

Inside the Crosson live broadcast studio, the atmosphere suddenly heated up.

Blood Pigeon clapped and nodded approvingly, “He wasn’t eliminated. Little Witch’s luck isn’t bad.”

The scrolling comments were full of people clamoring.

“What kind of cool, high level parkour jump is this!”

“I’ve become a Contestant Wei fan, he even gave his teammate his coat; he’s so gentle, and his boyfriend skills are so strong…”

In the senior survival show fan channel, countless straight men were bravely analyzing Wu Jin’s jump just now.

“A 12 meter drop. Contestant Wu’s muscles are obvious, and his body fat ratio is low. It’s not surprising that he can land safely. The main credit for his success lies in the balance of his body when he jumped, and Contestant Wei’s skill in providing a buffer––”

“Shouldn’t it be a high body fat ratio?” retorted another member of the audience. “That’s what it means to have a fat buffer. Just looking at Wu Jin’s small round face, his body fat ratio must be high. His entire body is probably soft to the touch!”

“No way. Judging from his muscle power, his body fat ratio must be low! Against someone with the same weight as him, Wu Jin can hammer whoever he wants!”

The audience members from both sides of the argument immediately began a debate over ‘whether Little Witch was soft and flexible or hard and elastic’. The intensity of the debate was no different from the popular debate over ‘whether Pikachu was smooth or fluffy’ from 10 centuries ago.

Soon, the audience inquired about it with the program team and asked them to confirm.

Blood Pigeon was stunned and handed the microphone over to Ying Xiangxiang.

“……” Ying Xiangxiang reacted within a single second and smiled slightly, “How would I know? You should ask Contestant Wei, the one who held Little Witch just now.”

The program team staff controlled over a dozen cameras to swarm over to Wei Shi on the screen when they heard this.

Then, the scrolling comments blew up once again. The Scarf CP faction was dancing and celebrating, stopping just short of stamping ‘official CP’ at the top of the forums.

Crosson Show, sixth elimination match arena.

A damp Wu Jin smiled at the camera and sneezed twice.

What else could he do?!

It wasn’t like he could complain on the spot about how his elimination match teammate had been brutally gnawing on him while in a dead angle away from the cameras…

As soon as the cameras dispersed, the big boss slowly, slowly turned back.

The 27 year old Wei Shi’s aura was far stronger than the 16 year old Wei Shi’s.

Wu Jin shuffled back two steps.

Wei Shi narrowed his eyes, “Come here.”

Wu Jin obediently took two steps forward, and in the next second, he was pressed fiercely against the wall by one of the big boss’s hands as he gnawed and bullied his cheeks wantonly. Wu Jin wailed, hiccuping and sneezing at the same time…

Wei Shi was expressionless as he stroked a hand over the wet curls.

Wu Jin was still dripping water and shivering in the shadow of the wall. He’d been ‘watered’ for a long time and looked like he was wavering on the verge of catching a cold. Fortunately, the survival show trainee could recover very quickly. Wei Shi hauled him out of the pyramid theme area and turned back along the path leading to the Ferris Wheel. On the way there, he picked a sunny lawn and ordered, “Lay down.”

Wu Jin was only wearing a combat vest as he splayed out spread-eagle on the lawn, lying there in the sun.

Just now, in the pyramid, he’d really used up all his strength. Wu Jin’s body seemed to turn boneless as soon as he lay down. The warm sun mixed with the light grassy scent made Wu Jin feel a little drunk, and his eyelids drooped.

“Rest for half an hour and dry yourself out in the sun.” Wei Shi placed a hand on Wu Jin’s forehead to test his temperature.

In the marathon-like survival show, seizing every possible opportunity to rest was an essential skill.

Wu Jin held onto consciousness and looked at his wrist watch before finally letting out a breath of relief. Jingyi was still in the pyramid, and Wu Jin’s wrist watch showed: ‘Current Ranking: No.1’.

Beside him, Wei Shi had just finished helping him wring out his jacket.

Wu Jin couldn’t see any cameras around them, so he squirmed over to the big boss and was at ease as he closed his eyes.

The adult big boss had the same smell of sunshine, hay, and nuts, but it was also quite different from the cub. The cub was like a small pine tower that stood in front of him, while the big boss was a silent and solid pine tree.

With this period of sudden relaxation after physical exertion, Wu Jin happily fell into a shallow nap.

He’d gotten a license, married one and gotten one free, how wonderful… hic.

15 minutes.

Wei Shi gestured for Wu Jin to turn over and dry out the other side.

Wu Jin woke up vaguely, tensing up slightly when he felt a rough palm covered in gun calluses pinching his waist. The big boss kneaded the back of his waist again, and Wu Jin plopped down and continued to sleep.

Wei Shi effortlessly helped Wu Jin flip over then casually patted him and flattened him out.

There was a faint breeze on the lawn, and little blue flowers were scattered on the grass.

The Wu Jin Pancake and Chef Wei Shi were lying down and sitting respectively. The sun shone down gently from above, wrapping around them in a dead corner where the cameras couldn’t reach.

Half an hour later.

Wu Jin suddenly woke up.

The youth climbed up from the grass and hauled the big boss towards another ride––

Wei Shi lifted his eyelids.

Wu Jin seemed to have sensed something: “!!!”

Wei Shi bent over, his body in an interrogative posture that gave off a strong sense of oppression. Wu Jin’s survival instincts kicked in, “No-no-no-nothing happened…”

Wei Shi forced Wu Jin to look at him, and the eyes that were reminiscent of those of a wild animal were narrowed into slits, “If he dares to do anything to you, shoot him.”

His manner remained imposing as he let Wu Jin go.

“……” Wu Jin agreed superficially: Fine, fine! Your brain circuits are really amazing!

Not long after the two of them set off, their wrist watches vibrated at the same time. A second team had completed two items on the list.

Wu Jin shared his analysis with the big boss in a low voice, “In terms of difficulty, the pyramid and the Ferris Wheel are about the same. In this elimination match, there should be a ride that gives easy points that we haven’t run into yet.”

“According to the clues we have, clocks and watches are matched within the civilization theme park. For example, the clock tower in Western Europe, and the water clock from Ancient Egypt. And, the time controller is hidden in the entertainment facilities.”

Wu Jin pondered out loud, “The Ferris Wheel was a huge, rotating clock face, and the top of the pyramid was like the starting point for dripping water. According to this kind of prompt, we can take it further. In ancient times, methods to track time included knots, sundials, and pendulums…”

Wei Shi gestured for Wu Jin to look up.

In front of them, beside the fog-covered Ferris Wheel park, the pirate ship ride swayed from side to side. There was an unidentified trainee screaming on the ship.

Pirate ships were one of the ‘most underrated’ rides, but the peak level of weightlessness could surpass that of the roller coaster. The ‘pirate ship’ hull was connected to a mechanical arm that made periodic mechanical movements with a fixed amplitude and swing…

Wu Jin jumped up.

The pirate ship that swayed from side to side. Mechanical arm, pendulum.

“Let’s go!” Wu Jin pulled the big boss into a run, leaving the other party with no room to refuse.

They cracked the third entertainment facility faster than Wu Jin expected.

The ‘pirate ship’ was the facility that was basically giving away points in the sixth elimination match. Its shape and intention was simple and straightforward and could easily be linked directly to the pendulum.

At this time, the pirate ship was still running. Wu Jin quickly ran around and went through the smaller facilities around it, finding the clue in the stamp where Galileo wrote T = 2π√1/8 on a black board.

It was the formula for the mechanical motion of the swing of the pendulum.

“Galileo!” Wu Jin tossed the gun to the big boss.

Wei Shi casually opened fire, and the players who’d been guarding the pirate ship were forced to retreat in horror.

Wu Jin was very happy to be carried by the big boss, “No wonder it’s close to the Ferris Wheel. It turned out that it’s still in the same European civilization theme area. The pirate ship is decorated in a viking style that was seen in Italy at the beginning of the 17th century. At the same time, Galileo, an Italian scientist, discovered the pendulum formula, which is how they’re connected…”

Wei Shi listened as Wu Jin chattered on, but the gun in his hands moved continuously, as he used the hunting gun to brutally clear out the scene.

Wu Jin bounced over to look for the ticket machine.

Time flowed at a constant speed according to the pendulum’s movements. Wu Jin effortlessly worked out the starting time for the pirate ship that corresponded to the time on their timetable. At this time, footsteps rang out chaotically as the contestants who’d originally been blocking the Scarf team were forced to withdraw and scatter.

Wu Jin gave the big boss, who’d taken down a whole group of people on his own, a reverent thumbs up.

Although he’d kind of taken it easy this game…

However, it wasn’t a big problem!

In this game, Big Wei was carrying him while he took it easy, and in the next game, he’d carry him while Little Wei lay down and waited for a win. It was an endless circle where he could take turns relaxing and carrying!

The scheduled time for the ride arrived.

Wu Jin dragged the big boss with him and boarded the pirate ship, heading straight to the last row. His eyes were excited as he fastened the seat belt, “We’ll sit at the very end! At the very end! It’s the most exciting place––”

“……” Wei Shi finally confirmed that Wu Jin had fully recharged himself by napping on the lawn and was now full of energy.

The man nodded and didn’t object. When they boarded the ship, he mentioned, “Floating City has one too. It’s three times as big as this one.”

Wu Jin’s expression was reverent.

The pirate ship slowly started up!

Beneath the scorching sun, the warm air brushed past their cheeks.

Wu Jin, who was sitting at the stern of the boat, bounced around excitedly. At the highest point, he mouthed: Wei Shi!

In a dead angle where the camera couldn’t see, ten fingers locked together tightly.

Wei Shi glanced sideways at Wu Jin, whose small curls had been blown around messily by the wind. The two of them drew closer at the same time.

Their breaths were entangled in the wind.

The pendulum pirate ship sank again, entering an area with camera coverage.

Wu Jin sat properly, and Wei Shi looked the same as usual.

The pirate ship charged up again! Wu Jin snuck in some hidden moves, and Wei Shi restrained his restless hand, taking out the test paper and sticking it to the back of Wu Jin’s hand without a second thought.

Wu Jin leaned in to observe the test paper, his eyelashes fluttering close to Wei Shi’s heart.

Weightlessness and sweetness attacked at the same time.

The hull swayed to its highest point again.

Wei Shi’s gaze suddenly emptied out. His subconscious attempted to drill its way out––

Wei Shi forcibly pressed it back down.

The pirate ship flew through the air.

Wu Jin was still at the stern of the boat, and he was so happy he was about to burst out into song!

Wei Shi’s expression gradually grew blank again. He suddenly turned back and looked nervously at the little shortie beside him.

The pirate ship swung to the other side.

Wu Jin screamed.

Wei Shi’s expression changed again, his eyebrows deepening and becoming more serious. His eyes were unfathomable, the way they were after 10 years of additional experience.

The pirate ship continued to sway.

Since the big boss was the only one who could hear, Wu Jin had started to sing, mixing in some beatboxing at the same time, “Let’s start swinging~ double~ oars~ moving playing boom boom boom!”

Wei Shi fell into a trance again. Then, he looked at the unfamiliar shotgun in his hand, reaching out anxiously to look for his bow and arrow.

The pirate ship swayed again.

Wu Jin: “There’s a cool breeze from the front~ Wind buzzing, buzzing, buzzing!”

Wei Shi suddenly closed his eyes, his expression changed, and his lips curved up.

Wu Jin happily got off the boat and looked at the sign, “Done. The pirate ship task is finished. Let’s go to the roller coaster. It’s just southeast…”

Wei Shi made a sound of acknowledgement, then stopped Wu Jin from moving forward.

Wu Jin looked back in confusion.

Wei Shi calmly gave Wu Jin some psychological preparation.

Half a minute later.

Wu Jin could hear his own despair in his voice, “What?!”

“What do you mean, shallow consciousness conversion, accelerating frequency?”

“The fastest frequency…every half a minute???”

Juurensha: ….it’s certainly true love that Wei Shi likes Little Witch’s terrible lyrics!
