I Have Yet to Become a Doll Today-Chapter 554 - : The Arrow Maze
Chapter 554: Chapter 554: The Arrow Maze
While Bai Youwei and her team were clearing the game, Su Man and Lu Yuwen were still trapped in the maze.
This maze was divided into 10X10 grids, with each grid measuring 1.5-2 kilometres on average. They needed to go through all 100 grids to make an overall assessment and piece them together using deduction.
After the grids were successfully pieced together, the right path would naturally appear.
All this, Lu Yuwen explained to Su Man.
Su Man felt incredibly lucky!
If she hadn’t run into Lu Yuwen, she would definitely be stuck in the maze! Now all she had to do was follow these arrows, she could get out, then her left hand and right hand could get better, ah! ~ What a great situation!
With this in mind, her pace quickened unknowingly, her mood lightened, the road ahead was even and bright, all problems vanished!
“Su Man!”
She faintly heard someone calling her.
Other than her and Lu Yuwen in the maze, there was only Zhang Ke, who was unaccounted for. The person calling her must be Lu Yuwen, right? …Remembering Zhang Ke, Su Man started to worry. When she and Lu Yuwen returned to their fall site, the edges of the two maps were tightly joined together, but the rope was gone.
The rope didn’t just disappear, it must have been Zhang Ke who climbed up at the last minute, took the rope and ran away!
However, the map was so big, meeting by chance was likely no easy task.
As long as she and Lu Yuwen found the exit first, then…
“Su Man!”
The voice came again.
What was Lu Yuwen calling her for again?
Su Man tried to stop and take a look, but strangely, her feet… why couldn’t she stop?
Wait a minute…
It wasn’t her feet that wouldn’t stop, it felt like her brain did not want to stop…
“Su Man!” Lu Yuwen grabbed hold of Su Man, panting heavily, “You’re walking too fast!”
Su Man finally stopped; she was a bit dazed, “…Did you call me?”
Lu Yuwen was gasping for breath, “I didn’t just call you, I’ve been chasing and calling you more than a dozen times!”
Su Man looked at him, bewildered, “I didn’t hear it…”
Lu Yuwen was catching his breath, it took a while for him to recover. Resting his hands on his knees, he said, “When you’re walking, don’t look at the arrows, you will be influenced. My legs can’t move as fast as yours, I may not be able to catch up next time.”
His limp made it difficult for him to move around, particularly with his injured knee.
Su Man came back to her senses, surprised, “We…can’t look at the arrows?”
“The big arrows are fine, but don’t focus on the small arrows,” pointed Lu Yuwen towards a few figures on the side of the road, “If you follow the arrows the whole time, you’d end up like them, incessantly moving forward until you lose your sense of self and turn into puppets.”
Su Man remembered her earlier confusion and was slightly scared, “I don’t know what happened… I kept thinking, if I follow the arrows, I can get out, if I follow the arrows, I can get out…”
Lu Yuwen sighed, “Ah, Su Man, I’ve never said that following the arrows would get you out.”
Su Man realized that indeed Lu Yuwen had never said so. He only mentioned figuring out the 100 grids but why did she start believing that following the arrows could lead her out while walking?
She had been undercover for so long before but never had such thoughts. That’s probably because she was fully focused on Lu Yuwen and those three thugs at that time. But now that she wanted to get out, she started noticing the arrows near the road inadvertently and was influenced by them.
The more Su Man thought about it, the colder she felt at her back.
She looked up at Lu Yuwen with seriousness, “Thank goodness you called out to me, you saved my life. I will forever be grateful and ready to return the favour whenever you need me!”
