Chapter 1329 Highway Survival Part 55
After all, we don't know what the situation is like in other places.
But the children's dormitory? Everyone still vividly remembers what happened to Guan Ying and Du He in the children's dormitory.
Just as everyone was speculating about the task at 10 p.m.
Time continued to pass. Jiang Meng took a bite of a barbecue skewer, chewed it, and swallowed it before speaking to everyone, "Aren't you hungry?"
Upon hearing Jiang Meng's words, Meng Moyan couldn't help but say, "You have it so easy."
Meng Moyan still envied Jiang Meng's mindset.
Upon hearing Meng Moyan's words, Jiang Meng said to him, "No matter what, things will still happen. We might as well face them in the best possible way."
Meng Moyan also felt that Jiang Meng's words made some sense, so he picked up a barbecue skewer and started eating.
Then Meng Moyan spoke up, saying, "It tastes really good!"
After finishing speaking, Meng Moyan picked up another skewer of barbecue and started eating.
As Meng Moyan ate, he couldn't help but think that if this was his last meal, he would have to eat his fill.
With this in mind, Meng Moyan ate the barbecue skewers even faster than before.
After experiencing fear and inner turmoil, the other players realized that their current worries were clearly futile.
It would be better to be like Jiang Meng and Meng Moyan, and eat your fill first.
After Jiang Meng finished eating, she didn't intend to go back to her dormitory, but instead sat down to the side.
After noticing Jiang Meng, Du Qianxue couldn't help but ask, "It's still a while before ten o'clock, aren't you going back to your dorm?"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Meng said to Du Qianxue, "If we have to go back, we'll have to come down again anyway. We might as well just sit here and not bother."
Upon hearing Jiang Meng's words, Du Qianxue nodded in agreement.
After noticing the subtle emotions between Guan Ying and Du He, Jiang Meng said to Du Qianxue, who seemed a little out of sorts, "Look at your uncle and aunt."
Upon hearing Jiang Meng's words, Du Qianxue let out a somewhat puzzled "Ah".
The only people Jiang Meng could call "uncle" and "aunt" here were her own parents.
Thinking of this, Du Qianxue turned to look at her parents, only to see them looking worried and anxious, as if they were concerned about something.
Seeing her parents' condition made Du Qianxue's heart skip a beat. What was going on?
With this in mind, Du Qianxue walked to her parents' side and asked, "Mom and Dad, what's wrong?"
After hearing their daughter's words, Guan Ying and Du He hesitated for a long time before finally speaking to Du Qianxue, saying, "We both have missions."
Although it was just a few words, it still made Du Qianxue exclaim in shock, "What?"
Du He sighed and said to Guan Ying, "I told you, I shouldn't have told my daughter."
Upon hearing Du He's words, Guan Ying became quite emotional and said, "But Qianxue is our daughter."
When Du Qianxue thought about the situation she was about to face, she was immediately overwhelmed.
After calming herself down, Du Qianxue asked, "Mom and Dad, what kind of mission do you have?"
Guan Ying and Du He couldn't help but exchange a glance after hearing Du Qianxue's words.
Then Guan Yingcai said to Du Qianxue, "Go to the swimming pool at ten o'clock tonight."
Du He: "I'm also going to the swimming pool."
Du Qianxue breathed a sigh of relief after receiving her parents' reply, saying, "They're all in the swimming pool, that's good."
Then Du Qianxue continued, speaking to Guan Ying and Du He, "Mom and Dad, you must stay close to me when we're on a mission."
Guan Ying and Du He nodded repeatedly after hearing Du Qianxue's words.
Seeing her parents' actions, Du Qianxue took a deep breath and wondered to herself, "What's going on?"
After seeing Du Qianxue's situation, the other players were all relieved that their relatives were not there.
You have to understand, this mission is obviously dangerous.
Du Qianxue's parents, Du He and Guan Ying, look like ordinary people.
So just by thinking about it, you can tell that Du Qianxue is under tremendous pressure.
Sitting to the side, Du Qianxue's eyes revealed a hint of confusion.
Clearly, Du Qianxue didn't know what to do either.
As time passed, Jiang Meng calculated how long it would take to get to the playground.
After estimating that it was about time, Jiang Meng stood up and said to the other players, "We can go now. If we don't go now, we might be late."
Indeed, before Jiang Meng stood up, not a single player went to the mission location.
There are even players in places further away than Jiang Meng.
Thinking of this, Jiang Meng couldn't help but say, "Some people might have to start running."
After saying this, Jiang Meng turned and walked towards the playground.
The others also began to move, and since they were all heading in the same direction, they were all on the same path.
Of all the people, only Du Qianxue's expression showed the most anxiety and unease.
Anxiety about the unknown, anxiety about one's own safety, anxiety about the safety of one's parents...
Various anxieties lingered in Du Qianxue's mind, preventing her from calming down and thinking.
Seeing Du Qianxue's condition, Jiang Meng walked over to Du Qianxue, took out a piece of candy from her spatial storage, and handed it to Du Qianxue.
After seeing Du Qianxue reach out and take it, Jiang Meng said, "Have a piece of candy to relax."
Since everyone's task start and end times are the same, there's nothing that can be done to help other players.
After tearing open the candy wrapper, Du Qianxue put the candy in her mouth.
As the sweetness spread in her mouth, Du Qianxue sighed and said, "Oh dear, what should I do?"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Meng looked at Du Qianxue and wondered if there was any way to help her.
After all, Du Qianxue's situation was clearly more difficult than others.
With Du He and Guan Ying, two ordinary people, along, they could be considered two burdens.
Therefore, while completing her mission, Du Qianxue not only had to ensure her own safety, but also the safety of Du He and Guan Ying.
Just thinking about it made Jiang Meng feel tired.
After pondering for a moment, Jiang Meng glanced at her inventory.
Upon seeing the "bloodstained teeth," Jiang Meng took them out.
I vaguely remember that I obtained this item at the very beginning.
As for its use, it can trigger a massive battle when thrown.
These items are not very useful to her, but they are a different story for Du Qianxue and other players.
After thinking for a moment, Jiang Meng handed the "bloodstained teeth" to Du Qianxue.
As she handed it over, Jiang Meng said to Du Qianxue, "I hope this prop can be of some help to you."
Upon seeing what Jiang Meng handed her, Du Qianxue exclaimed in surprise, "What are you doing? This is a prop; you'll find it useful if you keep it."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Meng said to Du Qianxue, "This prop is not very useful to me."
Upon hearing Jiang Meng's words, Du Qianxue looked at Jiang Meng with a "you're lying" expression, saying, "How could the props be useless?"
Such props are truly rare finds. Although I already knew about their reputation, they are not actually sold in the store.
Even though Du Qianxue really wanted to accept the prop, knowing its value, she didn't have the nerve to take it.
Looking at Du Qianxue like this, Jiang Meng smiled and said, "The most important thing is to be alive."
Upon hearing this, Du Qianxue said to Jiang Meng, "What you said is correct."
Du Qianxue glanced reluctantly at the prop in Jiang Meng's hand, then asked Jiang Meng, "Are you really going to give it to me?"
If she were alone, Du Qianxue knew she definitely wouldn't want him.
But the current situation is that I'm not alone; behind me are my parents.
This forced Du Qianxue to consider things more carefully.
After hearing Du Qianxue's words, Jiang Meng couldn't stand Du Qianxue's indecisive manner.
Jiang Meng reached out and pulled Du Qianxue's right hand out, then placed the "bloodstained teeth" on it: "Just take it. If you have anything good in the future, you can give it to me."
Du Qianxue looked at the props in her hand, although the props themselves weren't very attractive.
But Du Qianxue looked at Jiang Meng with a touched expression and said, "You're so kind."
After accepting the props from Jiang Meng, Du Qianxue secretly thought to herself that she would definitely save any good things for Jiang Meng in the future.
The reason she didn't say it aloud was that Du Qianxue knew that what she truly wanted to say was ultimately just empty talk.
Jiang Meng nodded to Du Qianxue before speaking, "We need to quicken our pace."
Du Qianxue: "Mmm."
After Jiang Meng finished speaking, she strode forward.
If Du Qianxue had readily accepted the props he gave her earlier...
So Jiang Meng really underestimates Du Qianxue.
It was those few moments of hesitation from Du Qianxue that made Jiang Meng realize that she hadn't misjudged him.
Although Du Qianxue has some imperfections, people are inherently imperfect, and Jiang Meng accepts this because she herself is not perfect and has her own flaws.
Du Qianxue watched Jiang Meng's retreating figure and couldn't help but smile.
Du He and Guan Ying, who were behind them, tactfully kept quiet after hearing Jiang Meng and her daughter's conversation.
After Jiang Meng left, Guan Yingcai said to Du Qianxue, "Your captain is such a good person."
Before Du Qianxue could even speak, Du He, who was standing next to her, said, "How much use can such a little thing be? You're already indebted to her. You're really shrewd."
Upon hearing this, Guan Ying raised her hand and patted Du He on the shoulder: "No matter what, at least they offered their help."
After finishing speaking, Guan Ying looked at Du Qianxue and said, "Don't take your father's words to heart. He's just afraid because of the mission ahead."
Just as Du He was about to speak...
Du Qianxue then said, "I know that."
Then Du Qianxue held up the "snow-covered teeth" in front of her and said to Du He with some seriousness, "Dad, this is no small thing."
If you don't believe me, you can open the in-game store and see if such an item appears.
These kinds of items are something all the players are scrambling to get their hands on.
Upon hearing his daughter's words, Du He opened the system's shop as instructed, and after looking around, he found that there really wasn't such an item.
After seeing the expression on Du He's face, Guan Ying immediately said to Du He, "Look at you, why are you making malicious assumptions about him?"
If it were me, you can tell whether I'd still talk to you afterward.
Du He blushed at Guan Ying's words.
Then Du He finally spoke, saying, "I was wrong."
After Du He finished speaking, his face visibly turned even redder.
Guan Ying and Du Qianxue couldn't help but exchange a glance after seeing Du He's appearance.
They both knew that Du He was acting this way because he knew he was wrong, so Guan Ying and Du Qianxue didn't say anything more.
As everyone headed towards the mission location.
Meng Moyan and Liu Mingzhu, who had been keeping an eye on Jiang Meng, naturally noticed the interaction between Jiang Meng and Du Qianxue.
Meng Moyan was extremely envious of Jiang Meng's ability to give away props so readily.
This also deepened Meng Moyan's idea that he should join Jiang Meng's team.
Liu Mingzhu, on the other hand, has always looked down on Du Qianxue, whether it was the barbecue incident or the props issue.
Jiang Meng walked to the playground and saw Liu Mingzhu give her a look before walking into the cafeteria.
The other players also entered their respective mission locations.
Soon after, at exactly ten o'clock, the mission officially began.
Although some players started late, none of them were late, which is a good thing.
Just as Jiang Meng took out a broom from her spatial storage and pretended to clean,
I've also been paying attention to my surroundings.
Suddenly, the system appeared in front of her, and Jiang Meng immediately looked over.
Then, a puzzle piece about the playground appeared in front of him.
The requirement is that you must find all the puzzle pieces in the playground and put them together before you can leave the playground and return to your dormitory.
After Jiang Meng finished reading it, she immediately realized that it was impossible to finish in ten minutes.
The jigsaw puzzle on the system actually has forty pieces.
Although Jiang Meng thought this way, she didn't waste any time and immediately started searching from where she was standing.
Xiaomi, who was standing nearby, was also helping out.
With Xiaomi's help, Jiang Meng's progress has greatly improved.
In no time, nine cards were found, which seems quite easy so far.
While searching for puzzle pieces on the playground, Jiang Meng did not forget to observe her surroundings.
In case something lurks in the shadows and suddenly appears in your face.
Although I'm unlikely to be hurt, especially with Xiaomi next to me, I can't help but feel a little uneasy.
