“Please stop arguing.” Captain Fan was getting a headache from all the quarreling. He didn’t know how to talk the girls down and could only scold them. “Rest while you have the chance. It won’t be easy escaping the school.”
The female student felt wronged. However, she couldn’t find anyone that could speak up for her in this situation and could only kneel down and cry.
The guy beside her immediately came and comforted her.
Ming Shu sneered and continued tapping her knee with her fingers.
Captain Fan remained silent for a while before walking over to Ming Shu. “Thanks for your help just now.”
“You’re welcome.” Ming Shu tilted her head. “You came to find me, after all. Once we escape, we won’t owe each other anything and can go our separate ways. ”
If they weren’t here to find her, she wouldn’t even have bothered to come in.
[……]
Captain Fan was slightly surprised. He didn’t think that Ming Shu would say such words. After a while, he said, “Let me bring you back to the capital.”
“There is no need to trouble yourself, I can go on my own.”
In the dark, Captain Fan couldn’t see the girl’s expression. However, he could infer from her relaxed tone that she was not afraid nor hateful of Doomsday. To her, there was no difference between Doomsday and the normal world.
Are all the students so calm and composed?
Captain Fan would soon realize that some students were afraid too. Not everyone was composed like Ming Shu.
“This is my mission,” Captain Fan insisted. As a soldier, it was his job to follow through with a mission as long as he was alive.
Ming Shu couldn’t deny his words.
Half an hour later, Ning Le and the other captain returned and they started strategizing.
“I cannot leave. I have to go to this place. Captain Zhao, please bring the students out first.” Captain Fan rejected Captain Zhao’s plan.
“Your mission was the laboratory in the basement too?” Captain Zhao decided not to conceal his intentions anymore. “We’ve been there. The entrance is blocked unless you have explosives.”
Captain Zhao’s mission was to go to the laboratory and retrieve some reports. If there were survivors in the laboratory, they could rescue them along the way too.
As for Captain Fan, his mission was just the survivors.
“I still have to take a look,” Captain Fan insisted.
“Let’s move together, then. We don’t have much ammunition left. If we split up, there is a higher chance of us dying.” Captain Zhao had already suffered many losses and had no ammunition left. If they split, he had no confidence that he would succeed in escaping.
“That……” A male student with a fringe slowly raised his hand. “There is another way into that laboratory.”
“Really?” Captain Fan and Captain Zhao said simultaneously.
The student nodded his head and looked around, asking the student beside him, “This is the North Section right?”
The other student scanned the surroundings and nodded. “This is the North Section. We should be at the Music Department now.”
The male student with a fringe then continued, “The entrance is at the Medicine Department in the North Section. I’ve been there with my teacher twice.”
“How far is the Medicine Department?” Captain Fan asked.
“Around ten minutes……” Tengjiang University was a big university and each department was quite a distance away from the next……
Finally, they decided to enter the laboratory from the entrance of the Medicine Department at dawn.
After distributing the night shifts, everyone went to get some rest.
Ning Le sat on one side and kept glancing toward Ming Shu. After a while, she got up and sat down beside her.
“You don’t like me?”
Ming Shu looked up from her bag of cream puffs and started guarding her snack. “Why must I like you? I don’t like girls.”
“I don’t think I provoked you before,” Ning Le continued. “I just want to be your friend. You’re powerful.”
“Do you only make friends with powerful people?”
“I don’t mean it that way.” Ning Le felt that this human was harder to understand than the rest. She couldn’t guess her thoughts. “In these times, it’s better to be in a group, don’t you think?”
“I am afraid that you’ll backstab me.”
Ning Le frowned and replied, “I will welcome you into my team if you ever change your mind.”
If this girl weren’t powerful, she wouldn’t even bother talking to her.
“Don’t worry, I definitely won’t change my mind.” Ming Shu’s tone was resolute.
Ning Le: “.……”
Ning Le controlled her emotions and left with the thought that she would be able to convince Ming Shu one day.
[Do you want to throw Ning Le out now and receive some Hatred Points first?] The Harmony System felt the difficulty of the mission this time and came up with a bad idea.
Ming Shu chomped down on two cream puffs.
[Fight with her?]
Ming Shu scolded.
[……] Was it a bad idea? Looking at the situation now, even if it did have a better idea, there would be no way to execute it. Couldn’t the guest just make do with the first idea?……
The next day at dawn, Captain Fan and Captain Zhao woke the students up and prepared to leave.
Ming Shu was already leaning against the table and eating. In front of her lay many bags of snacks.
The female student woke up with swollen eyes. She was very hungry. She didn’t eat much yesterday as she was in a bad mood after her friend had died and her quarrel with Ming Shu.
The most important thing was, they did not have many food supplies with them now.
The female student walked straight to Ming Shu and grabbed a bag of snacks.
Ming Shu saw someone taking her food and immediately threw the female student over her shoulder.
“You……” The female student was in a daze from the throw. “You’re crazy!”
“Who allowed you to touch my food?” Ming Shu looked down on the student and sneered at her.
“Yours?” The female student held herself up and replied furiously, “Why didn’t I see you carrying these snacks yesterday? Are you trying to take everyone’s food and claim it as yours?”
Even though the room was dark yesterday, she wouldn’t be able to hide so many snacks, right?
“Just because I didn’t have food yesterday doesn’t mean that I don’t have food today.” Ming Shu poured the snacks into her bag.
“Chen Wei, she went to find snacks last night.” The male student with the fringe pulled the girl back.
He went to use the restroom last night and saw Ming Shu coming back with the snacks.
The female student turned pale. However, she was unwilling to lose face and argued, “Even if it’s yours, we’re a team now. Shouldn’t you share with everyone?”
Ming Shu threw her bag over her shoulder and gave the female student a huge smile. “If you’re hungry, you can search for food yourself.”
Anything could be discussed.
Anything except food.
