Today, I Have Yet to Become a Doll

Yan Qingwen smiled faintly, neither denying nor continuing the topic, and only said, "It's still early. We're planning to go out for a walk. Do you want to come with us?"

"I'm not going." Bai Youwei shook her head. "I'm waiting for Shen Mo."

"Who knows when he'll be back!" Lü Ang urged. "Let's go! It's stuffy and hot inside! It'll be cooler outside! Besides, we haven't figured out what's going on here yet!"

Yan Qingwen said with a smile, "Friends who have played games together should be trustworthy, right?"

Bai Youwei hesitated for two seconds, then nodded. "Okay, let's go for a walk."

Teacher Cheng didn't expect her to agree. None of them had ever acted independently of Shen Mo.

"What about Tan Xiao and Xiao Xin…" Teacher Cheng Wei Cai hesitated to remind Bai Youwei.

--Tan Xiao and Xiao Xin were still in the dollhouse.

Bai Youwei said, "Just leave them a note."

Teacher Cheng thought for a moment, found a blank piece of paper, and wrote a few instructions.

…

There was no specific goal in going out, just strolling along the road to see if they could discover anything.

The streets were very clean, and the garbage classification was effective.

The shops and supermarkets along the street were empty, with no usable supplies to be seen. Presumably, they had all been transported away by the "higher-ups" for unified and effective distribution of resources.

They walked towards People's Square for seven or eight minutes and met a person on the way, but the other person's attitude was very indifferent. He only glanced at them and left in a hurry, so Yan Qingwen didn't say hello.

It seemed that although this place seemed peaceful, it was not as comfortable as they had imagined.

Near People's Square, the number of people gradually increased, with groups of three and five under the trees, chatting, enjoying the cool air, and smoking.

A young man saw the beautiful Zhu Shu and whistled.

Lü Ang immediately glared fiercely, "What are you doing?!"

The other party was immediately frightened and dared not act rashly, and said with a smile, "No… nothing."

After they walked forward for a while, that guy, perhaps because he saw that Lü Ang was strong, had an idea. His attitude suddenly changed drastically, and he greeted enthusiastically, "Hey! Buddy, wanna join a game? One spot left, Russian Roulette, with a strategy guide!"

Lü Ang turned his head to look, frowned, and then glanced at Yan Qingwen beside him.

Yan Qingwen shook his head very slightly.

Lü Ang knew that the person was unreliable and ignored him.

The man shouted a couple of times, and when he saw that Lü Ang didn't respond, he gave up.

"Interesting." Bai Youwei curled her lips, with a half-smile. "Russian Roulette, with a strategy guide, and one spot left. They not only know the specific content of the game, but also know the number of people needed to trigger it and the strategy methods. Who provided them with the information? The organizers of the surviving population in Shanghai?"

"No matter who it is, it won't be provided for free." Yan Qingwen was very calm. "There is no free lunch in this world. Suddenly inviting Lü Ang is definitely not a good thing."

"They want to trick me?" Lü Ang clenched his fists, making a cracking sound. "Do you want to go and teach him a lesson?"

Yan Qingwen shook his head lightly. "We're new here. Let's see what happens first."

"You are a smart person."

A strange voice suddenly came from the front.

Everyone was stunned.

They looked around, but didn't see anyone.

"I'm here."

The young voice sounded again, from the tree!

Before everyone could look up, a black shadow jumped down from the tree—

A person wearing a gray hoodie slowly stood up in front of them. He wore capri pants and canvas shoes, and the wide hoodie covered his head, making it difficult for everyone to see his face.

"Hello, my name is Du Lai. I only deal with smart people."

He pulled down his hood, revealing a young and handsome face, grinned, revealing two tiger teeth, which made him look a bit more childish.

Bai Youwei silently glanced at the height from which he jumped.

This person… must have been in the maze.
