Chapter 482: Chapter 482: Big Arrow
The blue sky, serene as a tranquil sea, with faint wisps of clouds like white foam on the waves.
Su Man sat in the car, lifting her hand high out of the window, feeling the wind weave through her fingers, bearing the faint chill of autumn.
Summer was on the verge of passing.
She wondered if her companions had made it out of Game 21. Without her dragging them down, they should have been able to complete the game smoothly.
Now, after enduring a tough journey spanning two days and three nights, she had finally reached the edge of the maze.
She should have arrived much sooner but had had to drive using only her right hand, which, coupled with detouring around blocked roads and frequent stops, delayed her.
Fortunately, her journey was a safe one.
Perhaps it was because traveling alone didn’t trigger the game, but at any rate, her journey was free of surprises and danger.
Su Man squinted at the fog ahead. She estimated it was still over a kilometer away, and she decided not to drive any farther.
She stopped the car, unloaded all her supplies, lowered the bicycle tied to the roof, and then strapped the food, clothes, water, and a collapsible tent onto the rear of the bike.
As for the remaining supplies, she wrapped them up layer by layer in prepared black trash bags and stuffed them into a nearby dumpster—
Surely, if anyone came by, they wouldn’t rummage through a trash can for supplies, right?
The corner of Su Man’s mouth curled into a slight smile.
She had learned this from Zhu Shu. Back when Zhu Shu had suggested this method for hiding supplies, Li Li had praised her endlessly. She remembered feeling jealous and sulking for several days.
Looking back now, it was quite remarkable that despite living on the edge of life and death daily, she could still find room for jealousy.
Su Man shook her head with a wry smile, mounted her bike, and headed toward the maze…
The fog was just ahead.
The distance was closing in.
Her riding pace was slowing down…
For some reason, Su Man suddenly lost her confidence.
As she looked at the fog just before her, she couldn’t help but wonder, after going in, would she be able to come out?… If she died inside, would she regret this decision?
Causing her family to worry, making her friends upset, why had she so recklessly left without a word?
…No, no, that’s not right.
It’s not like that.
How could she start retreating now? Hadn’t they all agreed not to be a burden on each other? The maze was right in front of her! As long she goes in and comes out, she would recover!
It wasn’t about leaving without a word; she simply didn’t want to keep living under the protection of others!
Su Man mentally cheered herself on and quickened her pace.
The fog began to slowly swallow her form.
…
Once inside the fog, Su Man stepped down from her bicycle, pushing it along as she walked on.
The path under her feet gradually became soggy and wet, and the light dimmed, making her feel anxious, as if her preparations were not sufficient.
…Well, they couldn’t really be sufficient.
After all, no two mazes were the same; every maze represented the unknown, and no one could foresee what they might encounter within.
As the white fog dispersed completely, Su Man realized she was standing amidst a dense bamboo forest.
The bamboo grove was so thick that she couldn’t push her bicycle through. She had no choice but to abandon it and carry all her supplies on her back. freeweɓnovēl.coɱ
In all honesty, it was quite heavy. If not for her improved physical ability from navigating two mazes, she might not have been able to carry it all. If she’d only taken the essentials, it would surely have made moving easier.
However, Su Man knew her limitations.
She knew she wasn’t the cleverest, so she could only resort to this “dumb method” of bringing as many supplies as possible, so she wouldn’t panic when she needed something.
After a tough trek through the dense bamboo forest, she came across something.
A gigantic arrow.
This starkly contrasting, huge arrow, unlike anything in the surroundings, stood before her eyes, seemingly guiding her in a certain direction.
