Chapter 226 How long have you been like this?



Bo Ning said, "Then I won't follow him to the air-raid shelter for the next few days, to avoid being discovered. Let's wait and see what they will do to us."

Lin Wu said: "That's it. You two just need to pay attention to what he does every day and who he comes into contact with."

Lu Guichi suddenly said, "Master Shu is fine, but why is this Mary so weird? She said she wanted to kill Master Shu for... justice? This sounds fake. I don't know who she is and why she is staring at Master Shu so much. Hey, Wuwu, how about I get close to her and test it out?"

"No, just leave her to me."

Lin Wu refused.

Lu Guichi wanted to say something, but after looking at Lin Wu, he swallowed his words and just nodded.

Seeing that it was almost time to turn off the lights, Lin Wu told them to go wash up. Based on Lin Wu's experience last night, they only washed up roughly and prepared to lie down and wait for people to come in after the lights were turned off.

This time they didn't fall asleep.

But the two men didn't come last night, and the whole night was quiet. When they still didn't see anyone in the second half of the night, the three of them had to go to sleep. The next day, they woke up with dark circles under their eyes and tried to cheer themselves up. They guessed that the two men might want to wait a few days to control them through some means before showing up.

Maybe they were too obviously sleepy, so during breakfast, Rat Master came over to ask if they had slept well.

The three of them just found an excuse to have a nightmare.

Mr. Shu didn’t know whether there was a letter or not. He glanced at them and didn’t ask any more questions.

While Lin Wu was working, she continued to trick Mary, who came to see her, into doing the work for her, and she found a place nearby where no one could see her to catch up on her sleep.

After a morning of sleep, Lin Wu felt much more refreshed, which made Mary suspicious: "Are you kidding me?"

Lin Wu looked at her: "Didn't you tell me to take advantage of Master Shu going to the air-raid shelter alone to make the move? I have to consider the feasibility first, how to do it, whether I can do it, and then think about whether I should agree to you? This kind of brain-consuming thing, I naturally have to think carefully by myself."

Mary's eyes lit up, and she worked hard for Lin Wu in the afternoon.

Lin Wu continued to find a secluded corner to catch up on her sleep. When she woke up, she felt particularly energetic, but she was surprised to see Ji Jing in front of her, staring at her motionlessly.

She stretched. "Why, something wrong?"

Ji Jing said: "I warned you not to get too close to Mary, she would hurt you."

Lin Wu stood up, looked at her, and said, "Did I promise you? Instead of looking for me, you might as well look for Mary and tell her not to look for me."

Ji Jing frowned, stared at her for a long time, turned around and left without saying a word, but was seen by Mary when she left.

Mary immediately came over nervously and asked, "What did she say to you? No matter what she said, don't believe it!"

Lin Wu asked calmly, "What might she say?"

Mary sneered: "Don't think I don't know. That bitch Ji Jing has always disliked me and is such a coward! She obviously hates Master Rat and wishes something bad would happen to him, but she doesn't dare to think of a way to put it into action. Instead, she keeps trying to stop me!"

"She said you killed her best friend." Lin Wu said.

"I..." Mary said viciously, "It was obviously her friend who was incompetent and stupid. She went to Master Rat without making any preparations! What does this have to do with me? I didn't force her to do it! Did I force you?!" she asked Lin Wu.

Lin Wu looked at Mary, who was sweating profusely from working, and nodded: "No coercion."

Mary snorted, "So, don't believe what that bitch Ji Jing says! Let's finish our great work together and leave here as soon as possible! If she doesn't dare, then she can stay here for the rest of her life!"

Lin Wu said perfunctorily: "I know, I know, so tomorrow's work is also handed over to you. I will go to the field to survey how to get to the air-raid shelter smoothly."

Mary was very excited: "Okay! Don't worry, I'll help you with the work these days. I'm not tired, I'm fine!"

Lin Wu nodded seriously, looked at Mary with an expression that said "I'm just pretending with others, but I'm really playing with you", and then went to dinner leisurely.

At night, when Lu Guichi and Bai Ning heard what Lin Wu had done today, they were greatly inspired: "Perhaps, we can also find the confidant of Lord Rat who has surrendered to us to work for us."

"Yeah! We're not really here to go to jail, why would we make ourselves so exhausted?"

The two hit it off immediately.

After turning off the lights and waiting for a while, no one came, so the three of them went to bed decisively. They were not so sleepy the next day.

Taking advantage of the opportunity when Mary was working for him, Lin Wu wandered around for a while to familiarize himself with the routes nearby.

At the end of the day, Lin Wu was still radiant, but Mary's face was a little sallow because of working several days in a row. But when she found out that Lin Wu was really walking around today, she believed what Lin Wu said and was motivated to continue working for him.

Similarly, Lu Guichi and Bai Ning were also very comfortable.

However, the three of them were only at ease for one day, because on the next morning, Master Shu finally couldn't bear it anymore and sent people to find the three people who were assigned to various places and meet them in the screening room.

Lin Wu just happened to see Lu Guichi and Bai Ning at the door of the screening room. The three of them exchanged glances and pushed the door open as usual. Only Shu Ye was inside. The machine in front was playing a movie, "The Shawshank Redemption".

"Why did you suddenly call us here? Is there something wrong, Mr. Shu?" Lin Wu asked in a calm voice.

Master Shu just smiled and asked them to sit down, saying: "You three have been tired for so many days, why not take a rest now? After watching the movie, it won't be too late to talk about other things."

"No need." Lu Guichi sat down casually. "Who doesn't know such a famous movie? I've seen it a long time ago. Let's get straight to the point."

Upon hearing this, Master Shu turned to them and said solemnly, "In that case, I won't beat around the bush. All three of you have seen this movie, so how do you think the protagonist got in?"

"You were framed. What do you want to say?" Lu Guichi said impatiently.

Unexpectedly, Master Rat suddenly stood up excitedly and said, "No! He went in and couldn't get out. In the final analysis, it's because of the injustice of this world and the darkness and ugliness of human nature! Just like us, we don't want to come in, but we are forced to be imprisoned here and live a hopeless life! But what have we done wrong? We just did what those people outside wanted to do but didn't dare to do!"

"Is this kind of depressing and dull life what we want? No! Once we stay here for too long, people outside will forget about us, and then we will be truly dead. How can this be possible? Therefore, it is very necessary for us to do something to declare to people outside that we are actually innocent!"

Lin Wu saw some fruit on the table next to him and reached out to take a pear to fill his stomach.

Upon hearing Mr. Rat's passionate speech, he paused, and the pear fell to the ground with a clang and rolled away.

Bo Ning thought that the water drunk by Rat Lord should be fine, so he poured himself a cup to drink. However, he couldn't help but spit out the water he had drunk when he heard the words.

Lu Guichi, who was still pouring water, paused and looked at Shu Ye with a blank expression.

The entire screening room fell silent.

Lord Rat looked at the three men expectantly, as if asking how his speech went.

After a few seconds of silence, Lin Wu slowly spoke: "How long have you been like this?"
