Chapter 156 A New Phase in the Treasure Hunt
When Lu Youyou woke up again, it was already 12 o'clock.
Although she slept for six hours, Lu Youyou still felt tired due to her reversed day-night schedule.
My eyes are dry, and even turning them around makes them feel gritty.
She quickly went to the folding shower to wash her face, and only then did she feel a little better.
After yawning three or four times in a row, Lu Youyou wiped away the tears that welled up in her eyes before getting into bed, taking the gold coins from the treasure bowl, and handing them to Zhang Weimin.
Knowing that Lu Youyou had woken up, Zhang Weimin was no longer afraid of disturbing her sleep and initiated a private chat.
[Zhang Weimin: What would you like to eat for lunch?]
[Workaholics: No need to cook anything special for me, what did you guys have for lunch?]
[Zhang Weimin: We ate stir-fried bok choy and rice.]
[Workaholic Ox and Horse: Is there any more? I'll have one too.]
[Zhang Weimin: Yes, please wait a moment.]
After waiting for about a minute, Lu Youyou received the meal delivered by Zhang Weimin.
I don't know where he got the disposable lunch boxes and chopsticks from, but they look quite like takeout.
Perfect timing, Lu Youyou doesn't have to wash the dishes.
After finishing her meal, Lu Youyou threw the trash into the decomposer and obtained [Plastic*1].
It's possible that the wooden chopsticks were made with too little material, and the wood couldn't be broken down into pieces.
After dinner, Lu Youyou opened the map and, seeing that there were no red dots approaching her, she fell asleep peacefully again.
She woke up at 3:30 p.m.
This time I was completely awake, no longer feeling that kind of exhaustion.
As usual, she opened the map to see if there were any small red dots near her, and she actually saw one.
However, the two little red dots are quite far apart, and the one behind them can't catch up with them for a while.
After staring for about ten minutes, Lu Youyou saw the little red dot behind her change its route.
She closed the map with relief, opened the public chat, and wanted to see if anything major had happened while she was sleeping.
[The Reborn One Who Loves Intrigue: Chinese people don't lie to Chinese people. I swear I have no bad intentions. I just want to find a small team to cooperate with because I killed the monster that resembled a monstrous creature by myself, so the team consists of only myself.]
[Detective who loves deduction: Then how do you explain the fact that the team that contacted you before all died? And those who were looking for bodyguards on the public chat, they basically all died after speaking on your behalf. If you're not a suspect, who will believe you?]
[The Reborn One Who Loves Intrigue: What a huge scapegoat! You can't assume such a dark thing about me just because my nickname is like this, can you?]
[The Reborn One Who Loves Intrigue: I just enjoy watching TV dramas, that's why I used the keywords "rebirth" and "intrigue." Aren't you afraid I'll kill you for spreading rumors about me like this?]
[The detective who loves deduction: Come on, my entire gang is a small team, I'll make sure you don't leave alive.]
[A kind-hearted girl: Does the person upstairs need to be so aggressive? If those dead people were killed by resurrected beings, what would he gain? Aren't those people all speaking up for him?]
[Detective who loves deduction: Hey upstairs, did a monster eat your brain? Or did your mom stuff a placenta in your head? If you don't have a brain, just die. Having a teammate like you is a blessing for your squad.]
These words stirred up a hornet's nest, and the two sides went from personal insults to a team-based challenge.
Everyone was already on edge when they arrived here, like a bomb that could explode at any moment.
They are merely pretending to be calm in order to deal with disasters that have already occurred or may occur.
Even a public servant like Zhang Weimin has taken several lives, let alone ordinary people who haven't received any special training.
When that string in your heart snaps, you might do anything.
The news concerning the fate of the two teams didn't cause much of a stir on the public chat; it was quickly overshadowed by other people's messages.
They're buying lots of supplies, setting up honey traps, hiring bodyguards...
Lu Youyou glanced at it a few times, but showed no interest in anything.
Just as I was about to close the public chat and go to the rooftop to clear my mind, I suddenly saw the latest post.
[Little Fatty Who Loves Milk Candy: Attention everyone, someone can become invisible; in this case, the little red dot won't appear on the map!]
Comments followed quickly.
[The fingers that love playing games: In other words, the path you think is safe might actually be lurking with enemies!]
[The Pessimist Who Loves Fluctuations: Oh no, the sky is falling! How could this happen? I tried my best to avoid following the red dot on the same path, but there was still an ambush.]
hum-
The sudden vibration of the watch startled Lu Youyou.
She almost thought she was being attacked by an invisible person.
The vibration lasted for about five seconds, followed by a "buzzing" connection sound.
[Just now, the last colorful treasure chest that the adults placed was found, and the treasure hunt game has entered the next stage: the treasure snatching game.]
Once you have accumulated a certain amount of valuable supplies, your profile picture will appear on the map. The victor who kills you will inherit everything, including your vehicle and the supplies in your backpack.
Xiao Lu finished speaking.
Lu Youyou hurriedly opened the map and found her buzz cut image prominently displayed on it.
Not only that, even her nickname, "Working Ox and Horse," was exposed.
At the same time, Wang Qiao and Yang Yan's profile pictures and nicknames also appeared on it.
A small red dot appeared above three people's headshots, and Lu Youyou's heart sank.
[A message came in the group chat.]
Lu Youyou opened the group chat and saw a message from Yang Yan.
[Yang Yan: I'm sorry to have dragged everyone into this. I'm afraid we'll have a tough time from now on.]
[Wang Qiao: Can a team disband?]
[Zhang Yuning: What nonsense are you two spouting? We're all in the same gang. We can't enjoy the benefits you bring, and we can't share the hardships with you, can we?]
[Zhang Weimin: Yeah, Xiaoyan gives me everything she gets related to cooking, and although Xiao Qiao is aloof, the supplies she trades with Xiao Ning have indirectly helped me, and so has Xiao You…]
[Xiao Liu: Um... I'm not from your gang.]
[Zhang Yuning: Then get lost, you coward.]
[Xiao Liu: I... I didn't mean that. I meant, could I join the gang too?]
[Zhang Yuning: I'm sorry, I was a bit anxious and misunderstood you.]
[Xiao Liu: It's nothing, it's nothing. It's just that I want to join a gang, right? I also want a sense of belonging and to fight for honor!]
[Lu Youyou: Joining the team isn't easy; we'll see how you perform.]
Wang Qiao: Agreed.
【…】
After closing the small group chat, Lu Youyou sat in the driver's seat, so she could see the map on the dashboard and the public chat information on her watch.
The two do not interfere with each other.
There was nothing wrong with the map, and Lu Youyou hadn't yet noticed any small red dots moving towards her.
However, the messages circulating in the public chat were not good; someone recognized her.
[The Reborn One Who Loves Intrigue: Near the little red dot in the middle, there's a handsome young man with a buzz cut! That person is female, player 6666! Now called "Workaholic Ox and Horse"!]
[The Heart-Piercing Machine's Vicious Devil: What? I thought the famous Sister 66 would be fat and fierce, but she's actually a skinny little girl.]
