Chapter 203
The freckled girl had already looped her arm through hers, dragging her forward without giving her a
chance to resist.
Meanwhile, the freckled girl was babbling non-stop, “You confessed your love to Latham yesterday,
didn’t you? How did he respond? He’ll break up with his girlfriend, won’t he? You’re so pretty, you can
definitely steal him away from her!”
Finally, Eileen realized what was going on.
This was “reincarnation”…
So that’s what reincarnation meant!
Wasn’t this just role-playing?
The show had assigned six guests different roles, throwing them into a large setting..
In this setting, apart from the six of them, everyone else was an NPC.
Non-playable characters, the ones controlled by the computer in the game.
Eileen looked at the freckled girl next to her, guessing she was a tool to help her understand her
character’s background.
So she didn’t resist and let the freckled girl lead her to the basketball court.
On the court, a group of boys and girls were playing basketball, some shouting loudly.
Eileen was observing everyone.
Just then, a girl with a ponytail walked up to her and without a word, threw a bottle of water at her.
Eileen was startled and reflexively twisted the girl’s wrist.
1.
As a result, the water splashed all over the ponytailed girl.
All the NPCs were speechless.
In the control room, the director nearly spat out his drink.
He put down his cup, rolled his wheelchair towards the microphone and bellowed, “What’s going on?
Didn’t anyone remind her to stick
to the script? She’s supposed to get splashed here! That’s part of the plot! Someone go remind her!
We’re live already!”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAfter attacking the ponytailed girl, Eileen realized her mistake.
The other girl was an NPC, not really trying to attack her, this was part of the plot.
So, Eileen started to play along.
She complained to the ponytailed girl, “Why did you splash water on me? Look, you got my clothes all
wet!”
The ponytailed girl was stunned. She looked at herself, all wet, then at Eileen, who was dry.
In the end, she pretended that Eileen was the wet one and defiantly cursed, “Bitch must die!”
The freckled girl retorted indignantly, “Who are you calling a bitch?”
Ponytailed Girl shot back, “Her, I saw her confessing to Latham!”
Clearly, Latham was the basketball team captain and the ponytailed girl’s boyfriend.
So, this was a scene where love rivals confront each other?
Eileen rubbed her chin thoughtfully.
Then, the freckled girl suddenly started arguing with the ponytailed girl, even starting to physically fight,
pulling each other’s hair, clawing at each other’s eyes.
Other students hurriedly tried to break up the fight, and in the end, the two girls were brought to the
infirmary.
As the friend of the freckled girl, Eileen also went to the infirmary, but Latham, the basketball team
captain, left on his own, not wanting to get involved.
The infirmary was a mess.
Suddenly, a “bang”!
Someone was knocking on the door with a stethoscope, “What’s all the noise!*
Hearing this familiar voice, Eileen turned to look.
Then she saw the school doctor who walked inform outside, and it was Jarvis!
Jarvis had obviously adapted to his role, playing the part of a school doctor very well.
He was wearing a doctor’s coat, had a cold expression, and walked over with steady steps.
walke
The moment the school doctor walked in, all the students quieted down.
As Jarvis walked past Eileen, he gave her a glance and made a small gesture.
Eileen understood and nodded at him subtly.
The school doctor bandaged up the two injured girls and sent them away.
One by one, the students left.
In the end, only Eileen and Jarvis were left in the infirmary.
Finally, Jarvis let out a sigh of relief, took off his mask, and smiled at Eileen, “I woke up with no
information and people calling me Dr. Dave. This show is interesting, they didn’t give me a script before
filming. I was confused.”
Eileen nodded and casually said, “I was also a bit confused.”
Jarvis then looked at the wall-mounted camera and raised an eyebrow, I heard this is live.”
Meanwhile, on Vision Stream, the live platform for Haunted Chronicles.
Thanks to the teaser, even though the show had only just started, the entire chatroom was already full.
– [Ahhhh Jarvis looked at me!]
– [I can handle Dr. Dave, I’m sick and need Dr. Dave to cure me!]
– [Jarvis is so handsome, I’m totally smitten!]
– [Oh, my God. Eileen is here again? She’s the workaholic of the entertainment industry!]
– [Isn’t this show about ghosts? The trailer made it seem like it’s about ghosts, why are they in a
school?]
– [Aren’t the most ghost stories set in schools?]
– [That’s right, our school was built on a cemetery.]
– [Same here, our school was also built on a cemetery.]
– [Haha, which school isn’t built on a cemetery? The must have element for school legends is ‘our
school used to be a cemetery’.]
Jarvis glanced at the camera and then shifted his gaze back to Eileen.
Eileen put her hands in her pockets, leaning against the door frame as she calmly said, “They didn’t
give us character information in advance, they probably want us to improvise. After we get into
character, they’ll slowly give us more information, like me, the girl with freckles is my friend. I like the
basketball team captain, the girl with the ponytail is my love rival.”
This was what Eileen had figured out about herself in the past few minutes.
Jarvis looked up at Eileen and chuckled, “You seem to be adapting quite well, looks like I’ll need your
guidance.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmEileen responded with a nod, “I can guide you, but that comes with an extra fee.”
Jarvis was speechless.
Eileen then checked the time and said, “Let’s go.”
Jarvis was taken aback, “Huh?”
Eileen looked at him, “Let’s go find the others. Are you really going to stay here and play doctor?”
After saying that, Eileen turned and left the infirmary.
Jarvis chuckled as he watched her walk away, then got up and followed her out.
Two hours later, all six guests had assembled.
Eileen looked coldly at Hedy, who was standing next to Jarvis like a little bunny, her eyes narrowing.
Who would have thought the sixth guest would be her?
Jarvis noticed Eileen’s gaze. Knowing that Hedy was a plant from the sponsors, he asked with a smile,
“You guys know each other before?”
Eileen instantly replied, “Nope.”
Hedy was taken aback, “Nope?”
Eileen said irritably, “Of course not, there are so many people in the street, can I know everyone?”
Jarvis didn’t expect Eileen to have such a bad attitude towards Hedy.
Eileen glanced at the time and walked away.
Jaqueline quickly asked her, “Where are you going?”
Eileen responded with a frown, “It’s lunch time, obviously I’m going to eat.”
Jaqueline was left speechless.
Seeing Eileen walking away, everyone had no choice but to follow her to the cafeteria.
Hedy, trailing behind the group, glared at Eileen’s retreating figure. She gritted her teeth and muttered,
“So you love to eat, huh? You’ll be as fat as a pig sooner or later!”
Eileen upfront suddenly stopped in her tracks.
People around looked at her, puzzled.
Phyllis asked, “What’s wrong?”
Eileen turned around, her gaze accurately bypassed everyone and locked on to Hedy at the back.
She raised an eyebrow and said, “Me, fat? Alright, I am. And you’re light, even your ashes in a box will
be as light as a feather.”
