“Elaborate.” Slack-Off Dog nodded.

“Since the leaders don’t find it presumptuous, then I’ll say a few words…” Earth-Mouse looked at everyone, then fully recounted the matter of encountering Qi Xia during the daytime.

At that time, there were three rounds left in the game, and each round required consuming at least one fruit to move. That man ultimately completely captured his heart with three kumquats hidden at the door.

“That person told me… if all roads are blocked, you must choose to break through the wall at the first opportunity.”

Earth-Mouse smiled and said to everyone, “I think what that leader said made a lot of sense. At least it improved my own mindset somewhat. What do you all think?”

“But this doesn’t seem like your style…” Slack-Off Dog said with a furrowed brow. “Would you be that ‘wall-breaker’?”

“No, of course not.” Earth-Mouse nodded toward Slack-Off Dog. “Leader, you understand me well. Under no circumstances could I possibly be a ‘wall-breaker.’ I also told that Participant that I would wait for others to smash open the wall, then follow the path others made.”

“Then what’s the meaning of your appearance here today?”

“I’m naturally a ‘fence-sitter.'” Earth-Mouse scratched his head somewhat embarrassedly. “I wonder if saying this will make the leaders angry?”

“Are you really fucking sick?” Earth-Tiger couldn’t hold back anymore. “We don’t need fence-sitters here. Get lost!”

He thought his words would get support from Earth-Dog and Earth-Sheep, but looking carefully at the two, neither had any reaction.

The two had different thoughts, each calculating something in their own hearts at this moment.

Earth-Sheep originally believed Earth-Tiger was purely guessing blindly, but now it seemed the situation was truly as he predicted.

At least one Participant was currently outside inciting the “Zodiacs” to rebel. In a situation where both sides had no communication or contact whatsoever, this matter had already begun unfolding in full swing.

If so, how could this not be Sheep Bro’s handiwork?

Thinking of this, Earth-Sheep raised his head to look at Earth-Mouse and asked: “What does ‘fence-sitter’ mean?”

“Hello, Leader, it’s the literal meaning.” Earth-Mouse revealed a face full of professional fake smiles and said to Earth-Sheep, “I heard there was a group of people ‘breaking through walls’ here, so I followed to take a look. If you break through the wall and there’s a way out on the other side, I’ll follow you all out without a word. But if you attract enforcers while smashing the wall, I’ll also immediately step forward to sell you all out, letting the leaders be torn to pieces and die without a burial place. This is what’s called a ‘fence-sitter.'”

After hearing this, everyone fell silent.

“Pei Qianhu really wasn’t wrong…” Earth-Sheep also furrowed his brow. “You really are an unlikeable person.”

“It doesn’t matter if I’m unlikeable. The purpose of my existence in this world isn’t to win your favor.” Earth-Mouse said with a completely serious face. “Even if you hate me to death, I don’t think there’s any problem with that.”

Earth-Sheep didn’t speak, just shook his head helplessly.

“So saying this, the leaders won’t really be angry, right?” Earth-Mouse smiled. “I’m just a minor character—getting angry at me is too unworthy. Rather than having that time, you might as well quickly let me see how you all plan to ‘break through the wall.’ Leaders, please display yourselves freely. I’ll watch more and learn more.”

The several people looked at each other, and their final gazes stopped on Earth-Dog.

“Why are you looking at me?”

Earth-Tiger snorted through his nose irritably and said: “You heard how your person talks… Can he be trusted?”

“I can’t really say.” Earth-Dog shook his head.

After hearing this, Black Sheep also asked with a furrowed brow: “Isn’t he your friend?”

“Just a ‘friend.'” Earth-Dog looked at the two and said. “We’ve only spoken a few words, met a few times, felt that both sides weren’t mortal enemies, so we’re called ‘friends.’ I can’t very well tell you that I notified an unfamiliar ‘mouse’ about this matter, can I?”

“Damn… not one reliable person.” Earth-Tiger sighed. “You should be grateful. If we weren’t barely in the same boat right now, I’d definitely beat you until you begged for mercy.”

“You should also be grateful.” Slack-Off Dog said. “We don’t have any reason we must join you. The reason we can sit here is because we think you’re still useful.”

Earth-Sheep looked at the three people before him, increasingly feeling this team was full of holes. Everyone harbored ulterior motives. They couldn’t even choose someone who could serve as a captain.

“Dog Leader.” Earth-Mouse turned his head to look at Slack-Off Dog. “You say someone wants to turn this place upside down, but including me there are only four people?”

After hearing this, Slack-Off Dog also answered expressionlessly: “This plan only surfaced yesterday, so manpower is clearly insufficient. If you think it’s inappropriate, you can leave now. I’m too lazy to care anyway—after all, it doesn’t concern me much.”

“Hey, Leader, what are you saying?” Earth-Mouse smiled and shrugged. “I already said I’m a ‘fence-sitter.’ Either we all go out together, or I sell you all out. Leaving now would make me seem too unprincipled.”

Earth-Mouse terminated the topic again and again. The several people could only slowly fall silent, and no one knew how to speak up.

Not long after, there came another faint knock at the door.

The four people looked at each other for a while before Earth-Tiger stood up to open the door.

“Pei Qianhu, you stay there.” Earth-Sheep called out. “Your temper is too volatile. You’ll easily scare the ‘new team member.’ I’ll go.”

“Hmph.” Earth-Tiger snorted coldly and sat down, saying with a serious face, “This is something I organized, and yet I’m not allowed to speak.”

Slack-Off Dog and Corporate Slave Mouse both looked at him expressionlessly. The atmosphere became even more silent than before.

After only a few seconds passed, everyone heard Earth-Sheep open the door, but before they heard any conversation, a muffled sound entered their ears.

“Bang!!”

Before anyone could react, Earth-Sheep had already been sent flying, directly overturning the table in front of everyone. All the food and fruit spilled across the floor.

“Fuck!” Earth-Tiger shouted and stood up, turning to look and discovering two people standing at the door.

In front was a short-statured, arrogant-looking Earth-Pig. Behind was a tall, imposing female Earth-Horse. The powerful attack that had just sent Earth-Sheep flying came precisely from the short Earth-Pig before them.

“Damn…” Earth-Tiger looked at Earth-Pig with a furrowed brow. “You fucking ate the heart of a bear and the gall of a leopard?! You still dare to enter my room and hit my people now?”

“Oh?” Earth-Pig laughed contemptuously. “I need to correct two things for you. First, I made my move before entering the room. Second, the one I originally wanted to hit wasn’t him, but you.”

At this moment, Earth-Sheep also climbed up from the ground. He nonchalantly dusted off the dirtied areas of his suit, and the expression on his face also turned ugly.

“Earth-Pig, although we’ve had quite a few frictions ordinarily, it hasn’t reached the point of exchanging blows, right?” His veins bulged as he forcibly suppressed his fury and asked.
