Chapter 163 - 163: 163 We Are Sheep
Zhao Jiantao said: “Do you think there will be no problem as long as there’s a distance? Or as long as there’s water between? Let me tell you, the game is movable!”
Bai Youwei was surprised, “Isn’t the game area static?”
Zhao Jiantao closed his eyes, answered woodenly: “It was at the very beginning… But if no player joined the game for seven consecutive days, the game area would move, just like hunting… We are sheep, the wolf would automatically hunt where there are more sheep.”
The three of them were silent for a while.
Upon receiving this information, Wu Lili appeared even more dazed.
She recalled that since she arrived at Sanshan Island, she had always witnessed Zhao Jiantao sending people to the so-called “safe base”. He sent people every week, and everyone trusted him wholeheartedly. The few who occasionally had doubts were quickly “selected”, then sent over the next week… Gradually, only those with absolute loyalty to Zhao Jiantao were left! Like her, Zhang Qi, Sun Wei…
Turns out, it’s all a hoax!
There’s no such thing as a safe base!
Those people are all dead!
All dead!! Even Zhang Qi died there!
With the thought of Zhang Qi’s death, she was heartbroken. Her emotions totally collapsed, and she lunged at Zhao Jiantao like a madwoman, hitting him with all her might!
“It’s all because of you! All because of you!!! Why don’t you go die! Go die!!!”
Zhao Jiantao had been tied up and was unable to fight back. He endured her blows without making a sound, his face quickly turning red and swollen.
Shen MO grabbed Wu Lili, preventing her from going mad.
Wu Lili cried breathlessly.
Watching this spectacle, Bai Youwei also felt a headache, and asked Shen MO,
“What should we do now?”
Shen MO thought for a while and said: “Let’s take him back first and let the people on the island deal with this.”
In the end, he and Bai Youwei were just passing islanders. Zhao had too much blood on his hands, it would be inappropriate for them to interfere directly.
Bai Youwei pursed her lips, a bit dissatisfied, “So he gets off just like that for getting us into this game?”
Shen MO glanced at her: “Didn’t you want to come yourself?”
Bai Youwei grumbled in a girlish manner: “… Humph.”
Indeed.
They could have backed out initially, as the trip to the safe base wasn’t mandatory. But everyone was keen on the idea, so Shen MO decided to investigate.
And Bai Youwei, naturally, wouldn’t leave Shen Mo’s side.
She grabbed Shen Mo’s hand, murmuring complaints in a low voice: “He made us waste one puzzle piece.”
Shen Mo’s lips curled up, he took two puzzle pieces out of his pocket and placed them into Bai Youwei’s hand.
“Does this make it up to you?”
One puzzle piece belonged to Shen MO, the other to Zhao Jiantao.
Both puzzle pieces had their exemption rights used up, but the pieces themselves remained rare resources.
Bai Youwei happily accepted them.
On the return trip, Shen MO untied Zhao Jiantao, letting him steer the boat.
No one knew what was on the old man’s mind, or was he just a heartless person to begin with? His face showed no emotion, there was no shame, no fear, as if he was not afraid at all to face the uninformed people back on the island.
Wu Lili watched him the whole way, her eyes filled with hatred, wishing she could tear him to shreds!
When the boat arrived at Sanshan Island, Sun Wei was working near the dock. Seeing them return, he was surprised.
Before, only Zhao Jiantao returned from the safe base alone.
“Uncle Zhao, what’s the matter…” Sun Wei immediately noticed something was off about their expressions..
