Chapter 53 Crying
The team had already gone far away, leaving Lin Luyan and the others hiding in the dark, still maintaining their original posture, motionless.
Sun Xian blinked several times at Xiaoli and rolled his eyes to the right, suggesting to her that the enemy had left and when the game would end.
Xiaoli received the hint and thought that Sun Xian was interacting with her in the game. She also winked playfully, with a smile flashing in her eyes. She really enjoyed playing this game with everyone.
Sun Xian: “…”
He was dizzy. When would this childish game end? He was an adult now! He hadn't played "One, Two, Three, Statue" since elementary school.
Team leaders Lin Luyan and Chai Yisan did not move, and the others also followed their leaders and remained still, their eyes rolling around, and they were still a little anxious in their hearts.
The soles of my feet were burning with heat, and I couldn't wait to lift my legs and walk away.
In terms of the strength and number of the psychics, they were already at a disadvantage. If they didn't catch up now, it would be very bad if they missed the perfect opportunity to launch a sneak attack and take advantage of the situation.
But reason kept them in their original state.
The warm evening breeze blew the hair on the foreheads of the men and women. After leaving behind the anxiety caused by days of escaping for survival, they shed their tension and anxiety with a relaxed and comfortable attitude and embraced the quiet and peaceful green environment.
As time passed, the numbness between the legs and feet became more severe. Most people could no longer bear it, but seeing Xiaoli still persisting, they continued to maintain their original posture.
Chai Yisan and Xiaoli stood side by side with their eyes closed, as if they had fallen asleep. They were the two most relaxed people in the audience.
Even Lin Luyan, who trusted the ability of mental prediction, could not wait any longer. She was somewhat skeptical whether continuing to waste time here would really help turn the situation around.
She coughed lightly, tentatively waking up Xiaoli and Chai Yisan who were in a light sleep.
"Sister, you broke the rules." Xiaoli heard the noise but still didn't open her eyes and said playfully.
"We still have to stay here..." Remembering that Xiaoli didn't understand what she said before, Lin Luyan turned her gaze to Chai Yisan, reached out and pushed him, asking him to ask Xiaoli.
Chai Yisan yawned, and at Lin Luyan's request, he spent another point to communicate with Xiaoli.
A gentle voice sounded, bringing with it a soothing quality.
"Sister Lin didn't mean to break the rules. She just wanted to ask you how long you're going to play the game of [One, Two, Three, Statue]?"
Then he turned around and explained to Lin Luyan that they should treat Xiaoli completely from the child's perspective.
She has suffered from autism since childhood. Her deceased parents said that Xiaoli's condition has only improved this year. Even after experiencing the cruel end of the world, her mind has not been able to mature.
Because of this, the mute Chai Yisan, who is not good at speaking, can unexpectedly communicate with the naive Xiaoli without any obstacles, and they understand each other's needs tacitly.
A mute and a mentally retarded child, the two people who can least speak in the world, get together and become each other's spokespersons.
Xiaoli didn't understand Lin Luyan's question. After Chai Yisan's translation, she knew what the beautiful sister wanted to ask, so she patiently answered Lin Luyan's questions.
"Sister, I still want to play with you guys. The game [One, Two, Three, Statue] is great. You're my favorite sister, so you can't quit the game."
These words made Lin Luyan feel a little dizzy. She couldn't tell whether it was Xiaoli's ability of mental prediction that worked, or whether she was really playful and simply wanted to drag everyone to stay still in the dark and catch a cold.
Subconsciously, she still chose to believe it.
It's risky, but I'm willing to take the gamble this time.
But others didn't think so. They thought that Xiaoli didn't let them stay because of her ability of mental prediction, but because she really liked to play.
After all, a similar situation had occurred before, and their base leader Chai Yisan had also asked a group of people to accompany Xiaoli, just like they were doing now.
The last time they tracked Chun Tan, they played rock-paper-scissors, giving him plenty of time to escape. He's never been seen since...
This time they are playing [One, Two, Three, Statue]. Maybe by the time they finish playing, the base will have changed hands.
Sun Xian is the one who distrusts Xiaoli the most. He has a second-level psychic ability, but just because of Xiaoli's childish words, he doesn't even have the qualifications to go to the front line.
The gap between the two sides was already huge enough, and the weaker side even restricted the appearance of the highest-level psychics. Sun Xian felt that only an undercover spy would do this.
Despite thinking so, he didn't doubt Xiaoli at all.
He knew that if it weren't for Xiaoli's special ability to help, Chai Yisan's power might have been stripped away by Zhang Jun long ago.
The only person here who is least likely to betray Chai Yisan is Xiaoli.
Others have no choice.
Zhang Jun was cruel and feudal, and he treated ordinary people as playthings. If one wanted to survive equally in the end times, Chai Yisan at that time was the best choice to join.
Sun Xian couldn't help but say what he was thinking: "Xiao Li, let's not play anymore. If it's like last time, we might not be able to see them by the time we get there."
Then he turned his face away and ignored Chai Yisan's shock. Although Sun Xian looked a bit ruffian, he always put the overall situation first. He was really worried that Xiaoli would go too far this time and cause them to miss the opportunity.
Not quite understanding what he said, Xiaoli pouted and tried hard to digest what Sun Xian said.
Like last time, what was it like last time?
Why can’t we continue playing [One, Two, Three, Statue]?
However, if you stop playing the game, it means you have failed directly and will be severely punished.
Sun Xian couldn't control his tone, and to the little girl who realized it later, it sounded like he was scolding himself.
A misty fog quickly gathered in the eye sockets, the small nose became sore and red, and tears fell one by one, feeling extremely aggrieved.
She is so well behaved and not playful at all.
"Sun Xian, you've gone too far." Chai Yisan felt sorry for Xiaoli and became emotional. He immediately used [Voice Transmission] to ask Sun Xian to apologize to Xiaoli.
He knew that every word Xiaoli said and every action she requested had a deeper meaning, but her own situation made it impossible for her to explain things clearly, which led to such a misunderstanding.
Sun Xian knew that his attitude was too extreme and he said "I'm sorry" obediently, but he still planned to stick to his own ideas. For the sake of everyone's better life in the future, he ended the game process early and set out to fight against Zhang Jun.
There were many people who held similar ideas. Chai Yisan had no way to speak up to prove Xiaoli's case, and it was too extravagant to spend dozens of points to transmit the message collectively.
He cleverly found a spokesperson and turned his gaze to Lin Luyan who was thinking.
"Captain Lin, I promise you, Xiaoli's predictions are always correct. She told us to continue playing. There must be some guiding force behind this. Please calm everyone down and don't act impulsively."
Thank you for the reward from baby [Lollipop is mine]~
