Chapter 492: 492: Toilet Paper
The rope was long enough, so there should be no problem finding toilet paper in the restroom.
Lu Yuwen hung his head and opened the next cubicle.
“Found any paper?” Yang Zi asked.
Lu Yuwen paused for two seconds, removed the half roll of paper from the box, tucked it under his arm, and replied, “No…”
“If not, then keep searching! And do it quickly!”
Lu Yuwen pretended to search for toilet paper. Once he reached the last cubicle, he received a pen from Su Man and quickly wrote a message——
“Stay close to us. When you see me signal you, reverse the direction of all the arrows! The exact direction will depend on my hand signal!”
Arrows?
Reverse the direction?
The big arrow that spans hundreds of meters cannot possibly be reversed. The arrows that Lu Yuwen is referring to must be the smaller arrows scattered around the big one.
But what good would reversing the arrows do?
Su Man looked at him skeptically.
Yang Zi in the cubicle began cursing again:
“Damn it! How hard is it to find some toilet paper?! Have you found it yet?!”
“Found it.” Lu Yuwen pretended to struggle, patting the nearby toilet paper box, making a noise, “The roll is stuck inside, almost done.”
“Hurry up!”
Lu Yuwen didn’t dare delay any further. Without allowing Su Man the opportunity to ask any questions, he rushed out and handed the toilet paper to Yang Zi.
He wasn’t sure if such an impatient and thoughtless creature would burst out due to the urgent need for toilet paper. After all, the latter had no bottom line.
Once Yang Zi had finished up, presumably finding the smell too foul, he left the restroom immediately without further trouble for Lu Yuwen.
Su Man looked at the words Lu Yuwen had left behind, contemplating for a moment before leaving the restroom as well.
Brother Xiao and Zhang Ke had already returned outside. They had found some gasoline, but the motorcycle was still parked where they rested last night, so the gasoline was of no use for the time being and they had to carry it along as they moved forward.
“Let’s go two more squares and head back.” Brother Xiao said, “We’ll use the motorcycle instead, it’s more efficient.”
“The motorcycle won’t be that much more efficient.” Zhang Ke glanced in the direction of Lu Yuwen, “At most, three people can sit on a motorcycle. Unless someone gets down, to let Lu Yuwen up, otherwise, the motorcycle can’t move faster.”
Yang Zi snorted: “Let him ride the motorcycle? While we chase behind? You really do care about him.”
“And do you have a plan?” Zhang Ke didn’t mince his words, “Could your brain possibly produce a plan?”
“I really don’t understand! Isn’t he just drawing maps? Can’t we draw maps? Do we absolutely have to rely on him?!”
Yang Zi violently tugged the rope wrapped around Lu Yuwen, almost making him stumble!
“We’ve been trapped in this damn place for three days, aside from drawing maps, what useful things has he done? Even if he drew hundreds of maps, it wouldn’t guarantee an escape! Do you truly believe that he has an idea?!!”
“Enough! What’s there to quarrel about?!” Brother Xiao impatiently interrupted the two, “If you have the energy to quarrel, you might as well move more maze squares! Look for an exit!”
The two stopped arguing but neither looked particularly pleased.
Lu Yuwen held the map in his hand, silently following behind.
Occasionally, when the people in front of him were not paying attention, he secretly glanced back——
He couldn’t see Su Man’s shadow.
He was slightly anxious.
They were almost there and he wasn’t sure whether Su Man had caught up… When he saw her, he worried that the group would discover her, but when he couldn’t see her, he was worried she couldn’t keep up.
Lu Yuwen intentionally or unintentionally, slowed down his pace, secretly praying: I hope the plan will work!
