It was already very late.

Only the ghastly white lights, the quiet puppets, and a door leading to an unknown place surrounded them.

No one would feel comfortable staying in such a place for long.

Shen MO asked Bai Youwei, “What’s the matter?”

Bai Youwei pursed her lips, her tone resolute, “I don’t feel well, take me back.”

“Then let’s leave.” The teacher, concerned about her health, said, “Weiwei has been with us the whole day, it’s time for her to rest in the tent. If you’re worried about missing anything, Xiaotan can record or take pictures.”

Upon hearing this, Tan Xiao took out his phone from his pocket and started to take pictures of the surroundings.

He took a picture of the mirrors on both sides of the door, marvelling with a sense of wonder, “Wow, what a magical mirror! It can’t capture me- it can’t capture me~”

Bai Youwei’s face turned pale instantly and she shouted, “Stay away from there!”

Tan Xiao stopped, turned around, and looked at her.

The other students looked at Bai Youwei with various expressions.

The vague sense of eeriness that hovered around them became more evident because of Bai Youwei’s unusual behavior…

Tan Xiao paused for a second, dropped his playful face, quickly took a few more pictures, then retreated behind Shen MO, as if he was afraid of upsetting Bai Youwei.

The other students also hastily took a few photos with their phones before running back together.

No one wanted to stay there any longer.

On their way back, Bai Youwei fell silent.

Shen MO asked her, “Is it because of the mirror?”

At first, she shook her head, then after a while, she nodded.

Shen MO whispered, “You said before that the priority is to find the people, not the exit. Those puppets we just saw, they are probably the people we’re looking for. They walked into that door and turned into puppets — otherwise, I can’t explain why there are so many puppets around the door.”

Bai Youwei kept her head down thinking, without saying a word.

Shen Mo’s voice lowered, sounding like he was murmuring to himself, “If the door isn’t the exit, then where is the actual exit?”

“And another thing…” Bai Youwei reminded him, “Where did our reflections in the mirror go.”

In a game without any rule explanation, every single detail cannot be meaningless. The presence and disappearance of the puppets in the mirror must have a certain reason, it can’t be simply to scare people.

Bai Youwei thought they were a hint. Only by deciphering this hint, could they truly complete the game.

But what exactly was the hint?

She needed to think more…

Think more…

Everyone had a restless night that day.

The next morning, Bai Youwei woke up early. She opened her eyes and stayed in the tent without moving. Outside the tent, there were sounds of talking, footsteps, and the clings and clangs from pots and pans.

The bustling noises slowly woke up her brain.

She got up, opened the tent, and saw the teacher outside cooking tomato noodles.

In each bowl of noodles, there were two poached eggs. The red soup complemented the soft white eggs; with one poke of the chopsticks, golden yolk flowed out, mixed with the soup, swirled around the noodles, delighting the taste buds.

The teacher, regretting the food left uneaten in the maze, cooked lots. If they couldn’t finish it here, he would give the leftovers to Tu Dan’s students.

In return, the students frequently offered their own food to the teacher. Each call of “Master Cheng” sounded particularly affectionate.

Chen Hui saw Bai Youwei sitting alone by the tent flap. After a moment’s thought, she brought over a bowl of noodles and asked, “Want some?” Bai Youwei didn’t look at her and replied lazily, “I haven’t brushed my teeth.”

Following Bai Youwei’s gaze into the distance, Chen Hui realized she was waiting for Shen MO, so she said, ” Your brother went to fetch water, he will be back soon.”

Bai Youwei answered with a soft “Hmm”.

Chen Hui noted her dismissive demeanor and turned to leave. But after a couple of steps, she bit her lip and came back, saying to Bai Youwei, “About yesterday, don’t get the wrong idea..”
