Although Mr. Bell had said that everyone should bring water in addition to a set of necessary warm clothes, Susie still insisted on bringing her homemade metal detector.
At this moment, Sisi, who was only focused on finding treasure, was full of energy. She held her metal detector in her hand and stared intently at the small circle, so serious that her lips were pursed into a thin line.
Jiajia and Guoguo followed behind her, also with great interest.
"Sister Sisi, can we really find the treasure using this?"
"Of course, this is my homemade treasure detector, Su Xixi, and it's even been modified and enhanced by Gu... with the help of our previous instructor Chen. You can rest assured, no treasure buried in the sand can escape the keen eyes of my detector!"
Little Ruanruan shook her head helplessly, wondering why her older sister was so inexplicably confident.
Her broken detector was just a wire loop wrapped around an electrical wire and a bamboo pole tied to it.
If it weren't for Gu Chen helping her modify it by adding a battery and chip, that thing wouldn't have reacted at all, even if she searched the entire desert.
"Beep beep beep—"
As Xiao Ruan Ruan was thinking, an alarm suddenly sounded.
The group, who were already quite tired, were instantly invigorated and immediately gathered around Su Xixi.
Su Xixi was already beaming with excitement. She tossed the detector aside and started digging with her little hands. "There's treasure! There's treasure! I'm so lucky! I didn't expect to find the first treasure so quickly!"
Su Lei laughed at me when he saw me making the detector. He'll be green with envy when I dig it up and show it to him!
"Little Softie, come help me!"
Upon hearing Su Xixi ask Xiao Ruanruan for help, Lu Wei immediately knelt down in the sand in front of Xiao Ruanruan, digging in the sand as he said, "Sister Xixi, let me help you."
Soon, Kang Kang, Xiao Qingzai, Jiajia, and Guoguo went up to help, and Ruanruan knelt down next to Lu Lu to help dig.
When children huddle together in a circle to dig in the sand, their arms inevitably bump into each other.
Gu Chen, who was with Qiu Shun in the logistics group, saw Lu Wei touching Ruan Ruan and his already deep eyes turned dark as he tried to suppress the urge to chop off Lu Wei's claws.
He had promised Su Yiqing and the others that he would never again appear in the camera or get close to Xiao Ruanruan.
Otherwise, if Su Yiqing and his brothers see him on the live stream, they'll cause him trouble again.
"Hey, we found it!" Su Xixi's excited voice suddenly burst from the crowd.
The next moment.
"ah--"
Suddenly a scream rang out, and Jiajia curled up in fear, her little voice trembling, "It's...it's a bone!"
Although Susie was still thinking about the skull buried under the sand, because she had never seen a real skull before and had only played with plastic models, she stopped now that Jiajia was scared.
He wanted to pat Jiajia and comfort her, telling her not to be afraid, but then he remembered that his hand had just touched the skull, so he could only awkwardly pull it back.
"Jiajia, don't be afraid. There's nothing to be afraid of." Su Xixi softened her voice and tried her best to comfort her. "You usually eat rabbit heads and duck heads, right? We humans are animals too."
So our human skulls aren't actually that different from rabbit or duck skulls... they're all heads, you really don't need to be scared...
Before she could even utter the word "fear," a sudden "waaaah!" burst from the side.
Xiao Qingzai cried and wiped away his tears, saying, "I will never eat rabbit heads or duck heads again. I will never eat any heads again..."
Susie: ...
She was trying to comfort Jiajia, but instead of comforting one, she made another one cry.
Moreover, Guoguo next to him looked like she was about to cry. Kang Kang was a bit older, and although he wasn't quite ready to cry yet, you could tell he was very tense.
Only Ruan Ruan and Lu Lu looked somewhat normal.
But Lu Lu had already leaned closer to Ruan Ruan and whispered, "Ruan Ruan, are you scared?"
Before Ruan Ruan could answer, Su Qianqian pushed his head away with a small hand. "What are you talking about? Ruan Ruan is my own sister, Su Qianqian. If she's afraid of even a skull, wouldn't that be a disgrace to my family's bloodline?"
"Right? Little Softie?"
Although Xiao Ruanruan wasn't afraid, her face showed an indescribable look of distress, considering the mess her older sister had made!
Little Softie hesitated before answering, "I guess so!"
After saying that, she, Kang Kang, and Lu Lu took Jia Jia, Guo Guo, and Xiao Qingzai, who were so frightened that they lost control of their emotions, to the side to comfort them.
Meanwhile, Susie stayed behind, enthusiastically digging up the skeleton.
The viewers in the live chat were stunned.
After a while of silence, they became lively again.
[My Qian truly lives up to her reputation as a fighter jet among girls; her fighting power is no joke. Finding a skull not only didn't scare her, she was even a little excited.]
Good heavens, this child is so carefree, comparing a human skull to a rabbit's head or a duck's head!
[Upstairs, please stop! I think I'll never dare to eat rabbit heads or duck heads again. Eating them just makes me think of skulls, who can stand that?!]
...
After digging out the entire skull, Susie dug quite a distance deeper, but saw nothing else. Frowning, she asked in confusion, "Huh? Why is there only a head and a tag? Could it be that the body was eaten by wolves?"
Xing Chao felt a chill run down his spine just looking at Su Xixi holding that stark white skull in one hand. "Xixi, can we put that...that thing in your hand down first?"
Susie obediently placed the skull on the ground and sat cross-legged in front of it, carefully wiping the small metal plaque that had been unearthed along with the skull.
Finally, I could see the words clearly, and I read them aloud in a low voice, "Number 1508, what the heck is this?"
Xing Chao's expression changed, and he immediately went over. "Qianqian, show the cards in your hand to Uncle."
"Here, take this!" Su Xixi handed the card to Xing Chao without hesitation.
After glancing at it, Xing Chao immediately called the police.
Although he didn't know what the number 1508 meant, people who use numbers instead of their names are usually those whose identities need to be kept secret.
We must not be careless and must report this immediately!
