Chapter 46: It's Coming

According to Shi Dali's understanding of the script, tonight's task of searching underwater for the body was a specified segment, which did not largely depend on the number of people diving or their swimming skills—just fulfilling the requirement to dive was enough.

In other words, as long as there were no issues on the Ghost play side, Xi Yao's body would definitely be found, so Shi Guanming alone was sufficient.

Even if some kind of mishap occurred underwater, the risk would be borne by Shi Guanming alone. What he needed to do was survive and take away the clues.

At that moment, in the murky waters, Shi Guanming did not know how deep he was. Visibility was poor, and he was just diving deeper on a single breath.

The cold lake water and the unfamiliar environment were depleting the little courage Shi Guanming had. He felt the urge to give up several times, wanting to surface for air, but Shi's admonition echoed in his ears: surfacing would attract the Ghost's attention.
