It was naturally pitch black outside and nothing could be seen, including Ibuki Mio's tent not far away. From the outside, it seemed that there was no light inside at all.
I guess it's to save electricity.
After zipping up his pants again and retracting his head, Asahina whispered tentatively, a bit like a thief.
"Hey, junior, what do you say, why don't we move a tent now?"
"…Move the tent? Where to move it?"
Wu Yi didn't react for a moment.
Turn on the flashlight at hand and point it upwards. The light from the flashlight will dimly illuminate the entire tent through the diffuse reflection of the fabric on the top of the tent.
He saw Asahina imitating the gesture of raising her hands, speaking as she did so.
"It doesn't matter. Just move a little further away. We just need to loosen the tent nails. Then you carry the front and I carry the back... just like this..."
Wu Yi could probably imagine the way the girl was talking about, which was probably similar to carrying a sedan chair in ancient China.
Indeed, the tent is not heavy, and this operation is relatively easy for two people to do.
But... why do you want to move the tent? Is it because there are stones underneath that are bothering you? Or do you think the feng shui here is bad?
And he also said he wanted to stay away, but last time when he shared a campsite with Nanase Tsubasa, he didn’t complain about having trouble sleeping?
Oh no, wait?
Feeling as if he had discovered a blind spot, Wu Yi's eyes gradually began to understand everything.
"Senior, are you planning to..."
"What can I do? It's boring to stay in the tent like this."
Asahina's cheeks turned red, and she defended herself in a low voice.
Got it. I thought about it.
Wu Yi continued to squint: "Since you said so, do you want to try something more fun?"
“W-what?”
"We don't need to move the tent, we can stay here... But you can't make any noise, because if you make any noise, Ibuki will hear it. Isn't it exciting?"
"what?"
Asahina was dumbfounded, thinking that there was actually such a way to play, it was too exciting.
A silent challenge, right?
However, it doesn’t seem impossible?
Well... try it?
Volume 413: Chapter Ibuki Stayed Up All Night
As time came to the seventh day, it meant that half of the entire uninhabited island exam was over.
It was 6:20 in the morning. Wu Yi's breakfast in the camp was almost ready. The zipper of the single tent on the other side was just opened, and Ibuki climbed out with an obviously tired look on his face.
"Good morning... uh, Ibuki, you have serious dark circles under your eyes. Didn't you get enough rest last night?" Wu Yi looked up and found the problem at a glance.
"Oh, yes."
Ibuki took a deep breath and emphasized the pronunciation of "hmm".
In fact, even without Wu Yi telling her, she knew that the dark circles under her eyes must be extremely serious today.
Logically speaking, I had eaten and drunk well yesterday, and even my subsequent drinking water reserves were replenished by Wu Yi. I had neither physical burden nor psychological pressure. It shouldn't have been like this.
However, the real culprit was a nearby tent that shared the same campsite with her and had been shaking from eight to ten o'clock last night.
Ibuki Mio is just a bit straightforward most of the time, but that doesn't mean she is a fool.
For example, yesterday there were two people who were clearly a single man and a single woman teaming up, which was already very despicable, but they only set up one tent.
Even a fool can see the relationship between them!
Now that the prerequisites are known, is there any need to say more about what is happening inside the tent when it shakes at night?
It would be fine if it was just the torture of mechanically repetitive noise, but the problem was that after Ibuki Mio figured out what was going on, she started to become distracted even while lying in the tent.
In the end, Wu Yi stopped rocking and fell asleep at around ten o'clock, but Ibuki Mio had to stay up until three o'clock before she could barely calm down and fall asleep.
To be honest, when she was tossing and turning in the tent at around two in the morning, she wanted to rush out, open Wu Yi's tent and ask if he was asleep, and then add, "I can't sleep."
But thinking that the drinking water in my backpack was given by others, I could only give up.
This scene happened to be seen by Asahina, who had just woken up as well, but was refreshed after a night's rest, with no stress or fatigue left for the next day. The words she wanted to say hello got stuck in her trachea. She shrank her neck, took her toiletries and tiptoed away.
When they came back, breakfast was ready. Wu Yi was sitting cross-legged next to the gas stove with a lunch box in his hand, ready to eat. Asahina also hurried over and sat down.
Ibuki Mio, who did not buy instant fast food at the beginning but chose dried meat, could only hide in the tent, open the tent door, and eat the hard dried meat while drinking water.
Breakfast time passed quickly, and in ten minutes today's daytime exam would begin again.
However, an unexpected but reasonable person suddenly arrived.
It's Nanase Tsubasa.
Just as everyone packed up their things and prepared to wait for the terminal to release the destination before heading off to their respective destinations, she suddenly appeared in the camp, pushing aside the bushes.
"Nanase-san? Why are you here?"
Because it was so sudden, not only Ibuki who was completely unaware of the situation, but even Wu Yi and Asahina were a little surprised.
It was obvious that Nanase Tsubasa had just rushed here from a long distance. He was breathing rapidly and panting, and even the legs of his sweatpants were a little dirty due to the dew from the long walk through the jungle.
"Hoo...Hoo...Wait a moment, let me rest for a while..."
As if she couldn't hold on any longer, the girl took a deep breath, supported her knees and bent down.
Looking inside through the deep V zipper of the sports jacket, it is clearly visible that the collar of the short-sleeved shirt she is wearing close to her skin is completely soaked with sweat, sticking tightly to the skin and outlining the delicate shape of the collarbone.
Wu Yi took out the last unopened bottle of fresh drinking water from his backpack and handed it over.
Nanase Tsubasa was probably extremely thirsty, so he unscrewed the lid without thinking too much and drank one third of the water. When he caught his breath, he realized that he had drunk Wu Yi's water, and he couldn't help showing a little embarrassment.
"Ah, sorry, senior... I have water in my bag, I'll get you another bottle..."
As she said this, she was about to put down her backpack and return the bottle to Wu Yi.
But it was stopped.
"No, no, I have plenty of water."
Wu Yi opened his backpack pointlessly to show it off, and vaguely saw at least three or four full bottles of drinking water rolling inside.
The only difference is that these bottles have been opened and contain water that has been filtered through a water purifier.
In terms of cleanliness, it is definitely not as clean as drinking water given directly, but it doesn't make a difference to him. In comparison, carrying a lot of water around is a burden.
However, the thin-skinned Nanase Tsubasa was still unwilling to owe anyone a favor, and finally gave up after refusing for several rounds and making sure that Wu Yi really had enough water to drink and could even be said to have enough.
"By the way, Nanase, what's the urgent matter that brought you here so early?"
Tilting his head to glance at the time on the terminal in Asahina's hand, Wu Yi changed the subject and asked.
"And your destination shouldn't be near here, right? A new mission will be issued soon. Is that really okay?"
"That doesn't matter. In fact, my final destination yesterday was indeed right here."
As Nanase Tsubasa spoke, he took out his terminal and displayed the screen to everyone.
Because the new destination grid has not been refreshed today, the destination grid displayed above is still the last one yesterday afternoon. You can see that it is indeed at the location of I7.
However, for some unknown reason, Nanase Tsubasa seemed to have failed to reach the last destination yesterday afternoon, so the red words "Timed Out" were displayed on it.
There is also a prompt in the upper right corner of the screen, saying [If you fail to reach the destination grid once, you will be penalized with point deductions if you fail to reach it four times in a row].
Nanase Tsubasa is not a student with weak physical fitness. On the contrary, her physical fitness is extremely good among all the girls in Gaoyu High School. Even if the boys with gender advantage are included, she can still rank at the top.
So the question is, what was the reason that caused her to fail to reach her destination last night?
"It's Tsubaki Sakurako from Class C of the first year."
Taking a deep breath, Nanase Tsubasa took out a walkie-talkie from her body and began to speak.
"I don't know how she got hold of the terminal of the same group as Senior Wu Yi and Senior Asahina. Yesterday afternoon, she gathered a large number of first-year students, including me, through the radio and said that she was going to launch a containment plan against Senior Wu Yi and you."
For terminals in the same group, this is not difficult to understand and there is nothing strange about it.
Just like Wu Yi and Ayanokouji Kiyotaka's exam routes are the same, if he can follow the same exam route as Ayanokouji Kiyotaka, then there will be someone who can follow the same exam route as him.
only--
"Encirclement?"
Are you serious?
It seemed that he found this statement a little funny. Wu Yi frowned and couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth, looking both puzzled and amused.
He exchanged glances with Asahina beside him and shrugged meaninglessly.
"Okay, let them come."
Volume 414: Chapter : Putting aside the facts... it is impossible
Due to Nanase Tsubasa's sudden visit, Wu Yi and Asahina stayed in the camp for a little longer before leaving.
Although the information he brought was not particularly important, after all, the person had gone through the trouble of getting up before dawn and rushing all the way from a very far place just for this trip.
It could be considered as a way of expressing gratitude. Since there was no more unopened brand new drinking water, Wu Yi specially cooked a new breakfast for the girl before packing up and leaving.
The first target grid this morning is located at I9, just one grid away from I7.
After leaving the camp, the two walked through the jungle. The bright sunlight above their heads shone through the leaves, and pillars of sunlight fell on the ground, forming golden spots of light.
The terrain along the way was relatively flat, so Asahina had plenty of time to chat.
"Hey, junior, what do you think of the 'interception' that junior Nanase mentioned just now? How will they do it?"
"...To be honest, I don't know either."
Wu Yi thought seriously for a while, then shook his head quickly.
He really didn't know what those first-year students would do.
Generally speaking, there is only one way to intercept a specific group, and that is to do what Nan Yun did, bringing a large group of henchmen to track the group like a school of fish while constantly scanning.
They go wherever others go, and complete all possible nearby projects before the other party, so as to cut off their supplies and force them to leave.
However, the disadvantage of this method is that you will be led by the goal and you don’t have to think about your own exam at all.
Besides… even Nan Yun couldn’t keep up with his pace in terms of marching speed. What was he trying to do by letting a group of first-year students chase him? Was he planning to completely give up the exam and let the last five teams be filled by first-year students?
So when Wu Yi heard from Nanase Tsubasa that Tsubaki Sakurako was going to implement a containment plan against him, a big bold inverted question mark appeared on his head.
It was like hearing from Ozawa that the fate of the world should be in the hands of the womb of Europe.
Just... he said so, but no one knows how to do it specifically.
It is the kind of thing that cannot be imagined even if the facts are ignored.
"Looking for it, found it!"
Less than ten minutes after setting off, a surprised voice coming from the distance attracted the attention of two members of Wu Yi's team.
Looking up, on a slightly raised small earthen slope in front, several unfamiliar Gaoyu students popped their heads out one after another in response to the shout. They looked like first graders, and after seeing the target clearly, their childish faces were filled with expressions as if they had seen prey.
Wu Yi: “…”
Asahina: “…”
One, two, three, four, five, six...yeah, there are six in total.
The six first-year students rushed out of the shelter, howling with excitement like hunters in ancient times, and then slid down the slope six times to the two of them, one after another surrounding Wu Yi and Asahina like nails, making sure no one could get through.
Two in front, two in the back, and one on each side.
"They actually came."
Asahina conveyed this message to Wu Yi with her eyes.
Wu Yi raised his hand, stroked his forehead and covered his face to indicate that he didn't want to talk. He thought to himself, there are six of you anyway, and the Ginyu Force can't complete with one more person, so why not just shout "Six-Staff Light Prison".
At least there is still some momentum...
The leader, the first-year student who had shouted “Found it” earlier, was a little smug.
