Chapter 318: Rely on Oneself
Bai Youwei looked at him disgustingly, holding the rabbit, she said coldly, “Let’s go!”
The rabbit was the toy she had taken out earlier from the dollhouse when she called Tan Xiao and Pan Xiaoxin. If it wasn’t for charging, she would never leave it behind.
Teacher Cheng pushed the wheelchair out, followed by Tan Xiao and Pan Xiaoxin.
As they passed by the fallen Li Li, the three let out a sigh simultaneously, shaking their heads in dismay.
Teacher Cheng: “Confucius said, ‘I don’t know what one can do if they’re not trustworthy.’ Li Li, we came with you because we trusted you, but you… sigh, look out for yourself from now on.”
Tan Xiao: “I never thought you were that type of person! Humph, I despise you!”
Pan Xiaoxin: “You…”
After a thought, he as a child, decided not to meddle in adults’ affairs and just followed behind Tan Xiao.
The security team slowly gathered up, looking at the retreating figures, then turned to Li Li on the ground.
Someone went over to check Li Li’s breath.
Li Li was fine.
He had survived two labyrinths and Bai Youwei had showed restraint. The level of electric shock had just made him uncomfortable, but it was not life-threatening.
“Team leader, those people just now…”
“I saw.” Yu Yaqing held up her hand, “It should be a tool, it’s the first time I’ve seen a tool that can release electricity, and it seems to be reusable, no wonder the professor invited these people.”
“Ah… did we, did we offend them?”
“Are you afraid of them?” Yu Yaqing glanced unhappily at her subordinate, reprimanding harshly, “Foolish! Tools only lead to endless dependency! What we ultimately rely on is ourselves! Not the damned tools the game gives us! All of you, double the training tonight!”
She lifted her arm, clenched her fist tightly, “Remember! Never slack off! What we can rely on, will always be ourselves!”
The subordinates chorused, “Yes! Team leader!”
On the other hand, Yan Qingwen took Su Man back to Kraus Road.
Although there were no tools with healing effects, they commonly had wound medicines for pain relief, anti-inflammation, detoxification, and blood stasis.
Slice open the swollen flesh, let out the blood clot, apply medicine, and re-wrap.
Yan Qingwen put a splint on Su Man.
Such injuries that damage tendons and bones would normally take at least two months to recover. For players who have been through the labyrinth, it would take no more than two weeks.
After treating the wound, Yan Qingwen said to Su Man, “The starting point of this organization is good, however, it’s still newly formed and lacks the stability to last long. Maybe in the future, it will become better, or it could… get worse. I know you and Li Li grew up together and you’ve never been apart, but I still suggest you reconsider whether you can leave the organization.”
Su Man lowered her head and replied quietly, “Brother Yan, I will join the organization, not just for Li Li. My family has moved here, I must stay and look after them.”
Yan Qingwen thought for a while and then nodded, “In that case, there’s no choice. Of course, family is the most important.”
Lun Ang sighed, “Sigh… I used to run around here and there without thinking, but now I want to go home, I don’t even know where my old folks are.”
He looked at Zhu Shu and asked, “Where’s your family? Is it alright for you to be with us?”
“My parents are abroad.” Zhu Shu smiled faintly, “Even if I wanted to go to them, I couldn’t.”
Su Man couldn’t help but speak, “Are you all really leaving? Brother Yan, you have a connection with the Li Family, why won’t you stay? The world is a mess now, no matter how bad it is here, it’s a lot better than being unsure of tomorrow’s survival.”
Yan Qingwen was silent and didn’t reply immediately.
After a while, he said something completely irrelevant, “Today, Bai Youwei exchanged used puzzles for tools at the exchange point.”
