Translator: 549690339
Master Chang slept until five in the afternoon.
He felt ill from the drunkenness. It wasn’t until after he had consumed several cups of hot water upon waking that he finally felt better. Seeing that Tan Xiao and Shen MO had already packed their luggage, he realized they had no intention of staying long.
Master Chang pondered for a while, then sought out Tan Xiao, Shen MO, and Bai Youwei to discuss. “Uncle Zhao’s place is quite pleasant and stable, maybe I should stay here…” he proposed.
Reading their expressions, he slowly explained, “I’m older, and although I’m willing to pull my weight, I might inevitably slow you down. Perhaps it’s better for me to stay here and help Uncle Zhao. What do you think?”
Tan Xiao instinctively looked at Bai Youwei.
Bai Youwei’s face remained expressionless.
Tan Xiao then looked at Shen Mo.
Shen Mo’s expression was equally indifferent.
“As long as you have made up your mind, we won’t object. But you don’t need to feel as though you’re dragging us down. Throughout our journey here, you have been of great help to us.” Shen MO said.
Tan Xiao nodded in agreement, “Exactly, good buddies share both the blessings and the burdens. How can we talk about who’s dragging whom? What sort of camaraderie would that be!”
An emotion stirred in Chang Weicai, moving him deeply yet leaving him feeling conflicted.
Although he had not been travelling with them for long, the bond they had forged through shared life and death experiences was naturally profound. However… He hadn’t obtained a piece of the puzzle during the labyrinth adventure. If another game surfaced, he might become a burden.
While pondering this, a commotion suddenly broke out outside.
There were shouts, interjected by the sound of rushing footsteps in the hallway.
Shen MO opened the door, and they all followed him outside, only to see Zhang Qi carrying the female tour guide into the hotel lobby. His frantic companion beside him was shouting, “Xiaohe! Xiaoher, quickly! Lili is injured!” A middle-aged woman rushed out of her room with a medical box.
In just a few short minutes, the hotel lobby was crowded with people.
The injured tour guide was surrounded in the middle of the crowd. Uncle Zhao also quickly came over, asking the middle-aged woman, “What happened to Lili
“My leg!… My leg hurts so badly!…” The tour guide was writhing in pain, clutching her knee. There was no blood, but her pants were covered in mud.
“We’re not sure yet.” The middle-aged woman replied worriedly, “The pain is quite intense, it might be a fracture. I can’t treat that, and we don’t have any equipment for diagnosis here!”
Upon hearing this, a sigh swept through the crowd. Everyone knew that in the current environment, where medical resources were scarce, even if a fracture wasn’t life-threatening, it would surely hinder future mobility.
In the crowd, Zhang Qi, who was next to the injured tour guide, happened to make eye contact with Shen MO and his group, before quickly looking away…
Uncle Zhao arranged to take the injured guide back to her room and had the doctor put on a splint. The woman doctor used to work at a community clinic, treating minor ailments. The injuries the tour guide sustained were beyond her expertise, so she could only estimate how to treat it.
Shen MO and Bai Youwei returned to their room.
“Wu Lili’s injury likely has something to do with Zhang Qi.” Bai Youwei speculated with delight, “The question is, did she cooperate voluntarily, or was she tricked by Zhang Qi?”
Shen MO was slightly stunned, “Are you talking about the tour guide?”
His reaction pleased Bai Youwei.
“Yeah, didn’t you know her name?” Bai Youwei said with a grin, “Xiaowu, Lili,
Wu Lili, that’s how everyone calls her at the dining table.”
Shen MO frowned, saying, “She didn’t fracture her leg.”
“How would you know?” Bai Youwei blinked curiously, “She seemed to be in a lot of pain..”
