But these people still felt it wasn't enough, so they reused the sugarcane residue as fuel for their ships.
It can be said that they make full use of every part of the sugarcane.
After seeing the guards deal with the last remnants, Annie stood up from the pool of blood again.
Not a single drop of water was on her body.
Just as Gu Xinghe had said before, including the clothes and the body, it was all just a personification of Annie.
Perhaps because she had just eaten a large meal, Annie yawned softly as she stepped out of the blood pool.
Then, when she saw that there was still food in the original cabin, her eyes couldn't help but light up.
She walked briskly toward Gu Xinghe's batch of "fresh food" that had just been transported by carriage.
During this process, Annie had already noticed that Gu Xinghe had opened his eyes and woken up.
But when faced with Gu Xinghe's scrutinizing gaze, Annie only glanced at him briefly before quickly looking away.
Seemingly oblivious to the fact that the "food" had already regained consciousness before being eaten, the creature seemed to have no qualms about this.
To the other party, there is not much difference between being conscious and being unconscious.
Rather, it's more accurate to say that "food" that can awaken early through its own strong spirit usually tastes better than ordinary food.
This was something that undoubtedly pleased Anne greatly.
But just as Annie's gaze swept past Gu Xinghe and glanced at Mia beside him, her eyes lit up with excitement once again.
Are they eyeing Mia?
Gu Xinghe noticed this and pondered it to himself.
In this situation, Gu Xinghe naturally wouldn't be thinking about the problems arising from his inexplicable confidence, such as "He didn't even set his sights on me?"
In reality, he was thinking that, as an evolved being, he himself would indeed be a more "appetizing food" in Annie's eyes.
But if we're talking about why Annie is now more interested in Mia—
That seems to be the two coexisting consciousnesses within Mia's body.
At this moment, Mia, who had also noticed Annie's gaze, stepped in front of Gu Xinghe and looked him in the eye.
"Detective Sherlock, although we haven't had much contact, you've barely passed the test. You'll have to take good care of me from now on!"
Mia's words seemed to indicate that she already knew about the relationship between Sherlock and Watson, which Gu Xinghe had deliberately misrepresented.
"What are you saying? Wait, what are you trying to do?! I have a plan..."
Hearing Mia's words, before Gu Xinghe could think about anything else, his biggest desire was to stop her.
He suddenly grabbed Mia's wrist, stopping all her movements.
Are you kidding me?!
He now felt incredibly capable in combat, and his storage space contained various items and potions for different purposes.
We're just waiting to see who's stronger and who's weaker in the next round against Annie.
What's going on with Mia being unable to defeat her opponent and being prepared to sacrifice herself?
"I just think that dying to protect someone you love seems like a very romantic way to die."
"What are you talking about?! Shouldn't romance be about living together with the person you love?!"
But this sudden "suicide pact mode" was not a whim or idea of Mia's.
She seemed to genuinely want to cover for Gu Xinghe and then die together with Annie.
At this moment, Gu Xinghe truly realized that it was because Mia in front of him seemed to have been contemplating suicide.
Only when the other Mia consciousness appeared during the day would it continuously send him distress signals, "Help me!"
Yes, in the consciousness of Mia that appears at night, she always believes that she is the one who has usurped the place.
In the midst of Mia's unheard thoughts at night, Gu Xinghe suddenly heard a cracking sound.
That was the self-collapse and disintegration of consciousness; the consciousness of Mia that appeared in the night seemed to be breaking through the body.
While planning to destroy himself and Annie together, he also intended to leave this body to another consciousness of his own.
But just as the shattering sound in Gu Xinghe's ears grew stronger.
Mia, who seemed to have no will to live, suddenly grabbed Gu Xinghe's other wrist.
"Save me! Save my other self!"
Upon hearing this, Gu Xinghe quickly realized that this might be Mia's consciousness from the daytime that had appeared at this critical moment.
But perhaps it's because having two consciousnesses in one body at the same time is too much of a burden.
And it seemed that the night was Mia's home turf right in front of Gu Xinghe.
Therefore, after sending out her final distress signal, Mia's consciousness, which belonged to the daytime, quickly disappeared.
But at this moment, she seemed unaware that she herself was trying to persuade him to stay.
Mia, standing before him, remained in a state of shock and confusion.
Gu Xinghe swiftly transformed his right hand into a chopstick and struck Mia on the back of the neck.
It seems that the simultaneous appearance of two consciousnesses just now was already a great mental burden.
In addition, Gu Xinghe used considerable force, and Mia quickly fell unconscious in his arms.
Therefore, although this action may seem somewhat childish, Gu Xinghe actually does not like so-called melodramas.
Since Mia hasn't figured it out yet, the only option now is to physically render her unconscious.
After we get through this crisis, we can then persuade her from all angles.
