"Hello." No. 14 turned his gaze back to the girl and greeted her in a soft voice.

The girl finally came to her senses. She looked at the person in front of her warily, holding the bag tightly in her hand.

Seeing this, No. 14 said softly: "Don't be afraid, we are good people." Unexpectedly, as soon as these words fell, the vigilance in the girl's eyes became more intense, as if they were some kind of monster.

No. 14 touched his nose helplessly and said with a helpless smile: "Okay, I know this doesn't sound like a good person, but we really are good people."

However, the girl still half raised her head and looked at No. 14 as if he was a fool, as if she didn't believe what he said at all. He awkwardly cast a look for help at Xu Meir, but because of a certain man, he could only see half of her face.

No. 14: …That’s not necessary.

No. 1 didn't want to meddle in other people's business. He glanced at Xu Meir and motioned to keep moving forward. Xu Meir nodded, and the two of them walked forward neatly.

"Why aren't you talking?" No. 14 continued to talk.

The girl put her bag on her back and stared at the two people walking in front of her. She didn't know what she was thinking about, but she followed them.

Number 14 looked at the girl's actions in surprise: "Hey, you haven't told me your name yet? If you can't tell me your name, you can tell me your number."

The girl ignored him and continued walking forward. No. 14 continued shouting for a while, but when he saw that no one was paying attention to him, he gradually calmed down and stopped asking loudly.

Without much hesitation, he chased after him.

With a light "swoosh" sound, an arrow cut through the air at an astonishing speed and came rushing like lightning. The tip of the arrow flashed with cold light and carried a fierce murderous intent, as if it wanted to penetrate everything that blocked it.

Just when the arrow was about to hit Xu Meir, No. 1 on the side quickly pulled her into his arms.

Xu Meir's body was pressed tightly against No. 1's broad and warm chest, but her eyes involuntarily looked back, and she saw that No. 14 and the girl had narrowly avoided the arrows.

Interesting, Xu Mei'er's mouth corners slightly raised, thinking to herself. Then, she slowly straightened up and retracted her gaze from behind.

No. 1 pursed his lips slightly and watched Xu Meir gradually leave. A subtle sense of loss suddenly welled up in his heart.

"Who is it?! Who shot the arrow?! If you have the guts, stand up!" No. 14 took a step forward angrily and roared loudly.

However, the archer had already left. The arrow he shot was not really intended to take anyone's life, but more of a test of their strength.

As for the man's true identity, Xu Meir gradually had some guesses in her mind.

"What a coward! He only dares to launch a sneak attack but not to kill people. He is simply a useless waste!" No. 14 was completely unaware that the enemy had left and was still cursing indignantly.

"He's gone." No. 1 looked in one direction with a calm tone.

Xu Meir: "Yeah, I know."

"Gone, how could he leave?!" After hearing this, No. 14 couldn't help but raise his voice, and seemed a little excited.

"More than one person." No. 1 added, as if thinking about something.

"I guessed it," Xu Meir said with a heavy expression, "The game has just begun, we need to be more careful."

No. 1: “Yeah.”

No. 1 and Xu Meir walked for a while. The sky gradually darkened. It would be dangerous to continue walking. However, they could not find a cave this time, so they could only sit on the ground. The forest was unusually quiet at night, with only the occasional sound of wind and rustling leaves. The two sat on the ground silently, each chewing the bread in their hands.

The girl and No. 14 were also sitting not far away. No. 14 was smiling and saying something to the girl, but the girl looked as if she didn't pay any attention. Yet there was an inexplicable harmony between them.
