But before he could sit down, Wu Yi seemed to feel two pairs of eyes falling on his back.
That gaze wasn't filled with hatred or murderous intent, but rather was filled with... dissatisfaction.
?
With some speculation that even he found bizarre, Wu Yi raised his head and looked up.
I saw a girl in sportswear squatting on the treetop, leaning against the thick camphor tree behind the tent, holding on to the branches to stabilize her body, with a bit of embarrassment on her face.
As their eyes met, Wu Yi slowly typed a question mark.
Lee Jae-gan, the god or the devil?
Volume 386: Chapter : Hug in the Sunset
The time goes back to five minutes ago, when Wu Yi had just left.
In the camp, Asahina was sitting at the door of the tent, leaning sideways to take out the gas stove from her backpack.
She and Wu Yi actually each have one of these portable gas stoves, because they both work as a single-person team.
Now that they have been merged into a large group, that is to say, they belong to the same group, there is naturally no need to distinguish individual resources too clearly.
Often, Wu Yi’s food might be used for this meal, and then for the next meal, and then hers for the next meal, and then Wu Yi’s food again for the next meal, and then hers for the next few meals in a row.
Highlight one and see who takes it out first.
But Asahina took out the gas stove not because she was hungry or thirsty.
If she was thirsty, she had a full one-liter bottle of drinking water in her backpack that Wu Yiying had given her this morning, so there was no need to take out the gas stove to boil water.
The reason why she took out the gas stove was simply because there was nothing else to do, so she decided to set up the camp first.
To be honest, playing in a single-player team is indeed a very boring thing.
Living on an isolated island with no mobile network or wifi for half a month is boring enough, and there is no one to talk to. It really makes me feel that Robinson Crusoe was not so miserable.
But now Wu Yi ran away again, and she returned to a state similar to that of a single-person team.
Really, why would you run outside for no reason? After all, it is an island arranged by the school. Could there be some wild jungle beasts?
Asahina thought so while setting up the campsite out of boredom.
As she thought about it, a thought that was somewhat like a little girl's anger quietly came to her mind.
Yes, since it was agreed to be five minutes, if my junior hasn't come back by the time, I will find a place to hide and pretend to be missing, so as to scare him a little and make him anxious, and then appear again as if nothing had happened when the time is almost up.
Hey~ perfect.
And then...there was nothing else, except for that awkward scene of them staring at each other on the tree in the camp.
Back to the present, Wu Yi was lying on the ground in the camp in the shape of a "big" character, with most of his body inside the tent, only the part below his knees exposed to the sun.
He glanced at the girl who was sitting at the door of the tent with her legs crossed in the same direction as him, and his tone was slightly complicated.
"I have to say, Senior, you are quite... childlike."
"I told you it was just a joke."
Asahina snorted and turned back, pouting.
"Besides, do you understand how to have fun in misery? The uninhabited island exam is already so boring. If I don't find something fun to do, I'll become stupid in half a month."
The mouth is so hard that it cannot be broken even by a snap of Thanos' fingers.
Wu Yi sighed and said half jokingly and half threateningly.
"Then, if you come a few more times, I'll be scared to death by you. Then it'll be just like the story of the boy who cried wolf. If I go out temporarily and you're not there when I come back, I'll think you're playing a prank, but you've really been kidnapped and are tied up in a cave with your mouth sealed so you can't even shout for help."
"Well!"
Hearing this, Asahina's body trembled slightly, as if she remembered something, and her eyes changed slightly.
Like... a vague fear?
Seeing that she suddenly froze in place, Wu Yi stretched out his hand and waved it back and forth in front of her.
"Hi? Senior?"
"Uh……"
Asahina blinked twice and came back to her senses.
Wu Yi tilted his head.
"Are you okay?"
"Oh, it's okay, it's okay, what can happen to me?"
Asahina blinked twice again, and the previous change in her expression disappeared, and her light purple pupils returned to their usual brightness and spirit.
She used a smile to cover up her panic, raised her legs and put them down, and stood up from the door of the tent.
"Okay, let's cook. We have to continue our journey in the afternoon."
We continued to rush in the afternoon, from area E7 to area E6, and then from area E6 to area F7.
It is worth mentioning that, like in the morning, although there were many side exams along the way, most of them were score rewards, and only a very small number of exam rankings in remote areas were rewarded with material supplies.
What Wu Yi needed least was the point reward, so he simply didn't participate in any of them.
Soon, as all the objectives of the second day of the exam were successfully achieved, it was already evening.
Today's camping location is in the upper left corner of the F7 area grid, close to E6 and F5, at the foot of one of the ridges of the mountains on the east side of the uninhabited island.
Standing at the foot of the ridge and looking back, you can see towering rocky mountains, and if you look forward, you can see lush and green forests.
The place where Wu Yi and the others are now is the junction of sand and soil.
"Wow, this place is really nice, the lighting is great too."
As Asahina said this, she had climbed up a rock that was half her height, and with her hands propped up in the tent, she looked towards the place where the sea and the sky meet, facing the afterglow of the setting sun, with a look of admiration on her face.
Then he curled his lips and started complaining.
"It's not like before in the forest. Otherwise it would be so dark at this point that you can't even see a few grains of rice in the bowl."
"That's what I said."
Wu Yi was setting up a tent not far away. He raised his head and glanced sideways after hearing this.
"But I suggest you be mentally prepared. We are at the western foot of the mountain. It may be very dark tomorrow morning, and the sun will not come out until quite late. And..."
"And what?"
Hearing his drawn-out tone but no further words coming out, Asahina turned to him with a curious look on her face.
Wu Yi coughed lightly and continued what he was saying.
"Besides, there are mountains everywhere here. Even if there is a mountain spring, I looked at the map and it is near F6. This means you won't be able to take a shower tonight."
"right!"
Asahina's face changed slightly, as if she had been hit hard.
She was silent for a while, scratching her face in confusion.
"Um... Junior, how much water do we have left?"
"If we talk about drinking water, there are probably about five liters left, which is not very sufficient. If there is no water source to replenish, it can probably support our activities for two days."
Wu Yi continued to observe the changes in the girl's facial expression with a sidelong glance. He found the process from hopeful to disappointed expression very interesting.
When it was almost time, he added another sentence.
"But luckily I was smart enough to drink two liters of unfiltered stream water before leaving E7. Although it is not hygienic enough to be used as drinking water, it should be fine if I just heat it up and use it to wipe my body."
"real!?"
Asahina, who had thought she would go to sleep in a dirty state today, suddenly had her eyes light up.
She jumped off the rock, ran quickly to Wu Yi, and gave him a big hug against the backdrop of the fiery sunset.
"Yeah! Long live my junior fellow student!"
Volume 387: Chapter He has transformed into a junior student
The night is deep.
In the camp at the foot of the ridge, the two of them still lived in the same tent as they did last night.
Wu Yi was lying on the side near the door, while Asahina had set up her own small single tent on the inside, lying quietly in it like a sleeping bag, only sticking her head out of the tent to avoid suffocation.
The weather outside is quite good tonight. It is not raining heavily like yesterday. It is quite quiet inside the tent. Apart from the chirping of insects, even the sound of the wind is completely still. Through the thin tent fabric, one can even see a little hazy moonlight outside.
Asahina had fallen asleep early. The long journey during the day was quite exhausting, and she had to get up early the next day, so resting early was a wise choice.
In the pitch-black space where only the girl's even breathing could be heard, Wu Yi quietly opened her eyes.
He was still awake, and had been lying still just to wait for Asahina to fall asleep.
During the day, Asahina always resisted him leaving the camp alone, and the reason she gave was that it was extremely boring to stay in the camp alone.
But now that I'm asleep, there's no question of being bored.
The action is gone.
Wu Yi sat up silently, put on his shoes, carefully opened the tent door, crawled out without making any sound, and then closed the tent door with his backhand.
After listening for a moment to make sure the girl in the tent was still sleeping, he stood up and looked up at the stars in the night sky. After identifying the direction, he walked away quietly.
On the other side, at the foot of another mountain in the lower right corner of F7, a girl from Class D of the first year who was working as a single team was lying quietly in the tent.
Nanase Tsubasa was also awake. She raised her left arm and placed it on her forehead. From a close distance, the faint light from the bracelet on her wrist showed the current time.
- 8:07
Ten o'clock, this is the final deadline.
The place where Nanase Tsubasa and Wu Yi agreed to meet again is in the lower right corner of the third and fourth destination cells today.
Now that the third time has been missed, there is only the fourth time left.
Although she was basically certain that her route and that of Ayanokouji Kiyotaka had a high degree of overlap, it was still unclear whether Wu Yi was taking the same route as the latter.
If you wait too long, you may not get anyone even if you wait the whole night.
So, she would only wait until ten o'clock, and if no one came, she would take a rest, never leaving the fatigue until the next day.
Just as I was thinking this, I suddenly heard the sound of light footsteps outside the tent.
Come... No, who could it be?
Realizing that she had preconceivedly identified the approaching footsteps as those of Wu Yi, Nanase Tsubasa immediately forced herself to change her thoughts and her eyes instantly became alert.
The footsteps were getting closer and closer, and a blurry figure was vaguely emerging on the surface of the tent.
The other party seemed to be squatting outside the tent.
Are you ready to observe first?
As Nanase Tsubasa thought this, he reached for the backpack beside him.
If the other party dared to act rashly, she would immediately throw a backpack at him across the tent.
But the expected situation did not happen. The man outside the tent not only did not take action, but also cleared his throat and began to sing on the spot.
"Auntie, press it, press it~thump, thump, thump, thump..."
If there are JO fans here, they will definitely recognize that this is the entrance song of Three Brothers Under the Moon in Battle Trend. Unfortunately, Nanase Tsubasa is not interested in the two-dimensional world, so she just feels full of question marks and nonsense.
What is this, the latest way of communicating in secret?
Nanase Tsubasa's mouth twitched slightly as he recognized the owner of the voice. He took a deep breath and reached out to unzip the tent door.
And someone outside was still clearing the scene on his own.
“Ehhhhhhhhhh~blablablablabla…Ahhhhhhhhhhh~”
"Senior."
A slight sound interrupted Wu Yi's summoning spell.
Noticing the lovely blonde schoolgirl crawling out of the tent, Wu Yi clapped his hands happily.
"Yeah, it looks like the summoning was successful. I was worried about what to do if it was someone else lying in the tent."
"..."
