“Exchange the prop…for used puzzle pieces?” Su Man was in a daze. “…Why?”

Why exchange for those puzzle pieces?

And why did Yan brother bring up this matter?

Yan Qingwen looked down, his tone calm: “At first, I thought she was joking. After all, concerning the maze, except for knowing that it can produce puzzle pieces, we almost know nothing about the rest. We don’t even know how many puzzle pieces there are in total. How do you put together a complete puzzle?”

But she paid for it with actions and even traded valuable props.”

He spoke, raising his eyes to take a glance at the people present.

“Later, I realized that she was not really trying to complete the puzzle.”

Su Man furrowed her brows: “Then what does she want to do?”

“A goal.” Yan Qingwen replied, “A goal large enough to attract the people around and bring hope.”

Looking at him, Su Man vaguely thought she understood, but also vaguely felt that she didn’t entirely grasp it.

Yan Qingwen said: “A valuable goal can generate immense motivation. As long as this force exists, even if they die on the road in the future, they will not regret it.

As for us staying here, other than repeating the tasks set by our supervisors daily, nothing changes by sticking to the guideline of tackling the games assigned by the organization.

We will never get the answers about the doll game.”

“Brother Yan, by staying here, we can pursue the answers too! There is also hope!” Su Man couldn’t help but retort, “Professor Song’s research team has never given up on studying the doll game!”

“That’s them, not us.” Yan Qingwen calmly looked at her, “Staying here is not called pursuing answers, that’s called waiting for the answers. Su Man, you should understand, Lun Ang and I are not fond of sitting and waiting for death.”

Su Man’s eyes were red, “But…the chance of survival outside…is really low…”

“Honestly…the way we live now…we can’t really call it living.” Zhu Shu murmured softly.

Su Man looked at her.

Zhu Shu stated, “We’re just not dead yet.”

Everyone was silent.

After a moment, Yan Qingwen smiled faintly, “Humans can never change their inherent curiosity and adventurous spirit. Since the world has changed, why not live as we wish to live, so we won’t regret and feel pitiful when we die. Su Man, you don’t need to persuade us anymore.”

Su Man bit her lip, hung her head, and said no more.

Lun Ang joked self-deprecatingly, “If I had known we needed to collect the puzzle pieces, I wouldn’t have bet with that girl. Alas, I lost five puzzle pieces all at once!”

Yan Qingwen also laughed, turned his head towards Zhu Shu beside him, “Are you scared? You might struggle a bit if you follow us.”

Zhu Shu shook her head lightly, “It’s fine as long as I’m not bothering you.”

Seeing them so resolved, Su Man looked even more depressed.

They all barely escaped death many times, and although there were occasional conflicts and arguments, their bond was no ordinary one. If possible, she really didn’t want to part ways.

Unfortunately…

There’s no feast that doesn’t end.

The night deepened.

The temperature didn’t cool down because of the nightfall; the air was still humid and hot, making people sweat all over, uncomfortably sticky.

Bai Youwei hugged a fluffy bunny, sitting in the pitch-black living room.

Teacher Cheng, Tan Xiao, and Pan Xiaoxin were all asleep in the doll house, while she couldn’t sleep, often coming out worrying that Shen Mo might return without anyone being there.

Shen Mo didn’t return all that time.

The next door did welcome a few waves of guests though.

One of them was clever, after finding out that room 102 was uninhabited, he pried open the door of room 101.

But as soon as Bai Youwei heard the sound, she went into the doll house. The man found nothing after turning the 3-bedroom flat upside down, and left in frustration.

He should be grateful that the hot weather made Bai Youwei exhausted and lazy, reluctant to even move her fingers, so she let him go.

At three in the morning, Shen Mo finally came back.
