Cheng Weicai said, “The young man with glasses seems to be the female celebrity’s boyfriend. They look like they have a good relationship.”

The distance between the two sides wasn’t far to begin with, and it was especially quiet at night. When the quarreling voices got loud over there, this side heard it crystal clear.

Bai Youwei shook her head gently. “No, they’re not boyfriend and girlfriend. Look at their tents.”

Bai Youwei and Shen Mo’s side had two tents.

Over there, they had five tents.

“Five tents, one per person. Looking at that female celebrity’s dress, she doesn’t seem like a conservative person either. Not living together can only mean she and the bespectacled man haven’t gotten familiar enough to sleep together yet. Moreover, five tents—four are military green, one is orange. That woman seems more like someone who joined halfway.”

Shen Mo also glanced over and said flatly, “The four military green ones are professional-grade outdoor camping tents—rainproof, windproof, better workmanship. That orange one is just an ordinary household outdoor tent for family outings.”

“So when these people set out, they didn’t include that woman in their count at all and didn’t prepare a tent for her,” Bai Youwei said thoughtfully. “Logically, two women should be able to squeeze together, but coincidentally, the only female in the team is very hostile toward the newcomer woman. So they could only grab an extra set of tent equipment from a supermarket or outdoor goods store while collecting supplies.”

Teacher Cheng shook his head and sighed, expressing incomprehension. “These young people… Aih, at a time like this, what is there to fight about? Since they’ve come together, they should support each other and help one another…”

Bai Youwei smiled. Supporting each other and helping one another also depended on compatibility.

She put down her soup bowl. “I’m full. Going back to the tent to rest.”

Shen Mo took her soup bowl and spoon, standing up to wash them, but Teacher Cheng stopped him.

“You still have to keep watch at night—go rest first! I’ll handle this, I’ll handle it~”

After shooing away Shen Mo, Tan Xiao also wanted to come help. Teacher Cheng still disdained him. “Don’t touch, don’t touch. Last time you washed the bowls, they still had vegetable leaves on them—didn’t even wash them clean. You take Xiaoxin to play. I’ll clean up these things…”

Tan Xiao stroked his chin, eyeing Pan Xiaoxin beside him. “Xiaoxin, do you want to play… a treasure hunt game with Xiao Ge?”

Pan Xiaoxin asked blankly, “What treasure hunt game?”

Tan Xiao raised his chin toward the hotel entrance. “We only went to the second floor earlier. There are several more floors above.”

Pan Xiaoxin thought about it and nodded seriously. “Mm, we can collect more instant noodles and mineral water from the hotel rooms.”

“And cigarettes! There are cigarettes too~” Tan Xiao sniffed his nose and sighed. “I’ve been out of ‘supplies’ for several days!”

The five people each busied themselves.

Cheng Weicai cleaned pots, bowls, ladles, and basins;

Tan Xiao took the kid to the hotel;

Shen Mo and Bai Youwei rested in the tent.

The tent was quiet and peaceful.

Shen Mo had the last watch shift, from 3 AM to 6 AM, so he lay down early, though the time was still early and he had no sleepiness yet.

Bai Youwei sat beside him, slowly petting the plush rabbit.

Neither spoke.

Shen Mo lay for a while, then asked, “After coming out of the maze this time, did the rabbit level up?”

Bai Youwei glanced at him. “It did.”

Shen Mo propped himself up on his elbow to look at her, waiting for more.

But Bai Youwei wore an expression of complete disinterest. “However, it’s different from the upgrade I imagined.”

Shen Mo’s lips curved slightly. “What kind of upgrade did you imagine?”

“At least it should be able to release greater electrical energy, right?” Bai Youwei knitted her brows, placing the plush rabbit in front of him. “But the electrical charge hasn’t recovered at all. As for changes, it can only understand simple commands now.”
