Chapter 89: Different Approaches

Having one more ally is always better than having one more enemy.

Tu Dan brought Zhang Tianyang to Shen Mo's side and first thanked Cheng Wei Cai. The tall and sunny boy bowed politely to Cheng Wei Cai.

Cheng Wei Cai was holding a pot in his hand and couldn't avoid it. He put down the soup pot and asked him with a smile, "Are you fully recovered?"

"Fully recovered!" Zhang Tianyang smiled and said, "Before, the pain from the wound made it impossible for me to eat. I was starving for two or three days and couldn't get out of bed. Now that I'm eating and drinking well, I'm completely fine!"

"That's good to hear." Cheng Wei Cai had a kind smile on his face. "You should pay attention to safety in the future, think twice before you act, and be cautious at the beginning so that you won't have any regrets later."

Zhang Tianyang repeatedly agreed.

After expressing their gratitude, it was time to get down to business.

Tu Dan organized her words and said carefully, "In the last game, we accidentally obtained some information about the maze, so we came in to try it out. We didn't expect to meet you guys… Since everyone is together again, in the next few days, do you want to cooperate and find the exit together?"

"Cooperate?"

Bai Youwei's soft voice was particularly noticeable at this time.

She stared with her cat-like eyes, looked at Tu Dan, and then at Zhang Tianyang beside her, and said, "We probably can't cooperate."

Shen Mo raised his hand and rubbed her head. "Don't mess around."

"I'm not messing around, we just can't cooperate." Bai Youwei's expression was innocent. "Didn't you see the ropes and small flags they brought? There are probably only about a hundred small flags. Divided into three colors, there are only about thirty of each color. It's definitely not enough to cover the entire maze. They should be planning to use a progressive approach, which is different from ours."

Zhang Tianyang's eyebrows raised slightly, and he looked at Bai Youwei in surprise.

Although he had heard from Teacher Tu that she was smart, he didn't expect her to see through their next move just from the ropes and small flags in their hands.

—The number of small flags was limited. If the maze had ten thousand forks, they couldn't possibly prepare ten thousand small flags. So, they chose a place as the starting line and then moved forward in an orderly manner. The places they had passed were left behind and became "waste areas," while the small flags were always in the "new areas" in front of them. This cycle would be repeated.

If the maze was described as a clock face, then they were a second hand that would eventually go through a complete circle.

Shen Mo didn't pay much attention to Tu Dan and Zhang Tianyang's surprise, and asked Bai Youwei in a light tone, "Oh, then what is our approach?"

Bai Youwei pondered for a while, then tilted her head to look at Shen Mo. "Yarn ball style? Sunflower style? … Which one do you think sounds better?"

Zhang Tianyang understood. "You guys are using a point-to-point approach? Taking one location as the starting point, dividing the maze into several parts, and then exploring them one by one, is that right?"

Bai Youwei ignored him and pulled on Shen Mo's hand, asking, "Which one sounds better?"

Zhang Tianyang: "…"

Shen Mo pulled Bai Youwei's hand away and said to Tu Dan, "Our approaches are indeed different. Moreover, you have prepared so well, you probably won't cooperate with our approach. There seems to be no need for us to join you. Since we can't cooperate, let's just go our separate ways."

Tu Dan looked disappointed but also understood. She nodded and said, "Alright, I guess that's the only way."

It was a bit of a pity that they couldn't form a strong alliance, but her main purpose in coming here was to avoid making enemies, so this result was barely acceptable.

Just as she was about to say goodbye, Zhang Tianyang couldn't help but say, "Mr. Shen! Your approach is too time-consuming. Why don't you join us?"

"Tianyang." Tu Dan frowned and called his name.

Zhang Tianyang said confidently, "Shouldn't we all work together to find the exit faster? Teacher Tu, you should persuade them too!"

"Ha… That's really funny." Bai Youwei grabbed Shen Mo's hand again. "Don't bother with them. Their approach has a super big flaw. Let them waste their time!"
