Chapter 650: Chapter 650: Miss Hu Tao
Those who snapped out of their initial shock charged in pursuit!
Some sprinted, others slipped on walnuts, while some paused to collect the fallen nuts.
Meanwhile, the Puppet Master and his wooden puppet continued to announce indifferently: “…Number 12, zero walnuts, eliminated! …Number 27, zero walnuts, eliminated! Number 30…”
Finally, someone bellowed, “Stop fucking chasing! Toote! Start picking up walnuts!!!”
Perhaps they wouldn’t catch up to Fu Miaoxue before they were disqualified for not having any walnuts, so it made more sense to pick up as many walnuts as possible before their numbers were called!
With bitter resignation, thepetitors stopped dead in their tracks to scrouge for walnuts.
Not only were they picking, but they were also fighting for them!
—Without a doubt, Fu Miaoxue had the most walnuts and the child who hadn’t dropped his into the bamboo basket would also im a spot. The final three spots could only be grabbed!
A chaotic free-for-all ensued, with fights and squabbles erupting everywhere.
Even erstwhile allies were no longer wary of anything, frenziedly scrabbling for walnuts!<div>
Upon hearing themotion, an escaping Fu Miaoxue could not help but crack up, hidden in the woods: “A bunch of idiots! Hahaha!”
Pan Xiaoxin followed her, clutching his own bamboo basket and panting heavily, “Are… we… not going back…”
“Sure, we’re going back.” Fu Miaoxue nced back then smiled brightly, feeling quite pleased, “The Inspector calls out starting from the yers with the least number of walnuts. Since we have the most, I’m sure our numbers will best. Now is probably the right time to return.”
She stripped off her walnut essories and stuffed them all into Pan Xiaoxin’s bamboo basket. Then, she scooped up a hefty helping of walnuts from her own basket and stuffed them into Pan Xiaoxin’s—whatever didn’t fit she shoved into his pockets and his hoodie.
“Didn’t I say I would return these to you with interest? Is that enough? Do you want more?”
Pan Xiaoxin repeatedly nodded: “Enough, enough… Thank you, sister!”
Fu Miaoxue squinted her eyes,ughing: “What a sweet talker.”
The two gathered their walnuts and returned to the clearing outside the hut.
Just moments ago thirty yers had been crowded here, but now only three remained. Including the two of them, five.
When the remaining three saw Fu Miaoxue and Pan Xiaoxin, they were seething with hatred. However, the game was over, and even killing Fu Miaoxue would not change the oue. Besides, it was not necessarily possible.
With resentment, everyone waited for the Inspector to announce the final results.
The string puppet’s jaw moved up and down: “There are a total of 5 winners in this game, and 25 people are eliminated.
We have 33 puzzle pieces to allocate.
24 props are avable.
Let’s start calcting the rewards—”
Following a series of calctions, Pan Xiaoxin received 7 puzzle pieces and 5 props, while Fu Miaoxue received 8 puzzle pieces and 5 props.
“Good luck in the uing maze war, everyone~” The string puppet’s voice was high-pitched, “Jack, who do you have your eye on?”
“Jamie, why do you keep asking me these questions.” The Puppet Master replied seriously, “Of course it’s Miss Hu Tao, you know, I’m attracted to bodies that are different.”
The string puppet: “Haha! Just like hook-handed Jefferson, a different body!”<div>
Puppet Master: “Exactly, modified bodies are fascinating.”n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
The string puppet: “But he is dead.”
Puppet Master: “What a pity…”
They took turns speaking, as if performing aedy routine.<div>
Fu Miaoxue had already grown impatient hearing them, just as she was about to interrupt them, the Puppet Master suddenly cried, “Ah! Jamie, we were so busy chatting that we almost forgot something important!”
The puppet immediately voiced: “Yes! We forgot to send them back to the rest hall!”
As soon as the sentence was finished, a giant glowing square appeared in the open space.
“Please, everyone,” The Puppet Master and his puppet simultaneously said, “Good luck~”
