When the internet was buzzing with anticipation for the police to find the mastermind behind the scenes based on the clues, Scarlett Jennings stepped away from the camera for a moment.
The viewers saw her walk to the door and say something to Director Clark before she left the room without even bringing the cameraman along.
She returned not long after, her expression unchanged, and the viewers assumed she had just gone out for a brief moment. However, Momo Ross was feeling anxious.
Even though she knew how to find the mastermind, the most important thing at the moment was the bracelet.
"Scarlett, Master Jennings, will that bracelet keep following me until we find the mastermind? Will it... will it keep making me age?"
Momo Ross covered her face, unwilling to let the camera capture her unkempt and makeup-free appearance.
But in fact, when everyone rushed into the room after hearing her scream, her "natural look" was already livestreamed online, and there were even screenshots with captions circulating online.
Scarlett Jennings looked at her and suddenly asked, "When you came over, the production team should’ve given you a Brocade Bag, right?"
Momo Ross was momentarily stunned by the sudden mention of this.
"I have one..."
"Just wear it on you."
Scarlett said casually, yet Momo Ross looked as if she’d been struck by lightning.
That’s it?
The audience in the livestream recalled Scarlett mentioning the Brocade Bag and suddenly remembered.
[Oh right! Didn’t they say last episode that the production team gave out Protective Talismans, the life-saving kind!]
[I remember! Last episode, my adorable Jingjing used that talisman to save Scarlett’s adoptive mother! It was said to contain amulets drawn by a master, specifically meant for the guests’ safety!]
[Momo Ross should have one too, why isn’t she using it?!]
[She has it! The host gave it to her before they checked in yesterday! All the other guests carry theirs with them, why isn’t she wearing hers?]
[If she’s not wearing it, can she give it to me? I’m willing to pay!!]
Even Momo Ross’s fans were frustrated.
[Didn’t my sis put that amulet on?]
[Sis, you are too careless, how could you not wear an amulet for your protection!]
Momo Ross didn’t know the audience was so frustrated.
Before Scarlett Jennings mentioned the Brocade Bag, she’d already forgotten about it.
"Are you saying... if I wear the amulet, the bracelet won’t be able to cling to me anymore?"
Momo Ross’s voice was weak, clearly affected.
Scarlett Jennings was puzzled as well. Earlier, she had guessed that Momo might have hidden another bracelet, but she didn’t explicitly ask her to hand it over.
She thought Momo would have her amulet on her, so even if the bracelet stuck to her, it wouldn’t matter.
Consider it a lesson.
Judging from her reaction now, it was clear she hadn’t worn her Protective Talisman.
The host couldn’t help but ask,
"Where’s the Life-saving Bag?"
He had one too, a gift from Producer Quincy, and he carried it with him at all times. When he gave it to Momo Ross yesterday, he specifically reminded her to keep it close.
Momo Ross’s face briefly showed guilt before she pointed to the luggage in the corner of the room.
"In... the suitcase."
