Chapter 73 - 73: 73 Exchange Game
Finally, Shen MO reached out and opened the dormitory door.
Tu Dan had long prepared herself mentally outside the door, yet, she was still taken aback when the dormitory door opened.
It was…
The double decker bed Bai Youwei occupied had surprised her.
But going through such trouble for a disabled girl reassured her in her judgement: the people in this group were worthy of trust.
Tu Dan quickly composed herself and walked into the room calmly.
“What’s the matter?” Shen MO asked casually.
He could guess the purpose of her visit by about seventy to eighty percent, but still asked for formality’s sake.
Tu Dan looked around at everyone. Finally, she rested her gaze on the rice and flour against the wall and said apologetically, “Just now… the game prop that Teacher Chang gave to Zhang Tianyang to use… I feel really guilty for letting you use such a valuable prop. I should express my thanks to you properly. But at the moment. besides some food. T don’t know what else T can offer to show my appreciation. I deeply apologize.”
She said this, then sincerely bowed to everyone.
Tan Xiao, having not been treated with such formality before, was taken by surprise.
Chang Weicai quickly rushed forward to help her up, “Saying too much, saying too much! The kid was badly injured, we couldn’t just stand by and do nothing, right? Ah! Is he okay now?”
“Yes, he’s fully recovered.” Tu Dan smiled, “He wanted to come down and personally thank you, but he hadn’t been eating properly for a few days since he was confined to his bed. Even though his wound has healed, he’s still weak.
So I left him in the dormitory to rest.”
“He should rest well, have him rest assured. Health is the most important!” stated Teacher Chang.
Tu Dan smiled and nodded, then directed her gaze to Shen MO, “My students and I don’t have any props that can assist you. However, we could chat about the game. It might be helpful in the future.” They were now getting to the main topic.
Shen MO glanced at Bai Youwei.
She had been leaning languidly on the bed, her head drooped, silent, seemingly aloof. However, Shen MO was certain she was observing every minute action of this female teacher.
“Was the game your student got injured in very dangerous?” Shen MO asked.
“What game isn’t dangerous?” Tu Dan bitterly smiled, “However, his injury…wasn’t caused by the game, but by another player…”
“You’re joking, right?” Tan Xiao interjected, “His wound looked like it was from an animal bite!”
“It indeed was an animal bite…” Mentioning this matter, Tu Dan’s face turned grim, “That player has a prop…that summons beasts. Many of my students were killed by it. In the end, only I, Zhang Tianyang, and that player successfully cleared the game.”
Shen Mo: “The other students upstairs didn’t enter the game?”
Tu Dan shook her head: “No, the maximum number of players for the game is eight. Once it reaches its limit, the game area automatically locks and prevents anyone else from entering.”
Shen MO asked again: “What’s the theme of the game?”
“The Little Mushroom Picker,” Tu Dan explained with transparency, “Once players enter, they’re separated and locked into eight rooms. The room’s door only opens at dawn, which happens every two hours, at which time they must go out and pick mushrooms. To clear the game, the bamboo basket in the room must be filled with mushrooms.
Picking mushrooms?
At least by the sound of it, this game was a lot more comforting compared to their chaotic frog and tadpole battle..
