Chapter 120 - 120: 120: Rescue Team

Meeting others was a blessing, as it provided warmth in numbers, a chance to exchange information, and mutual assistance.

But ever since they heard from Tu Dan’s students, about people attacking others to seize tools, they dared not take others lightly.

If that was the case for tools, wouldn’t a jigsaw puzzle be even more tempting?

However, currently, not many people have cleared the maze, so the information about the puzzle was relatively isolated. Most people should not know about the existence of the puzzle.

After a little thought, Shen MO said to everyone, “Don’t be too anxious, let’s go and see the situation first.’

Even though he said that, Teacher Chang still brought his crutch, Tan Xiao carried a baseball bat, and Shen MO held the inconspicuous folding fruit knife.

As for Bai Youwei, everything was in her bag.

The four of them arrived at the lake and found that the boat was already docking.

It was an amusement park sightseeing boat, designed in an antique style, with a big red hull, bright yellow curtains, dragon and phoenix carvings, and many red lanterns hanging outside the window grilles.

A few people got off the boat and yelled at them, “We are the rescue team! How many of you are there?”

Everyone was surprised.

Having wandered for so many days, they had lost hope of rescue, but now, they had stumbled upon a rescue team?

“It must be a rescue team organized by civilians,” said Shen MO, “the officials wouldn’t use such a boat for rescue operations.”

After hearing this, everyone’s excitement calmed down slightly.

That’s right.

If it were really a rescue team, why would they use a sightseeing boat from the park to collect people? However, encountering a civilian rescue team is also just their luck.

The leader was a muscular man, sturdy and tanned, looking a bit fierce but giving an honest and friendly smile.

He led two young men over and said to Shen MO and the others, “Fortunately, you had a fire, or we wouldn’t have found you. Is there anyone else? Pack your things and get on the boat, we will take you to a safe island!”

Shen Mo: “A safe island?”

“Over there–” The muscular man pointed, “Sanshan Island, all of our people are there, but it’s too dark now, you definitely can’t see it.”

A young man next to him, who was clearly impatient to stay on the shore any longer, urged: “Hurry up and get on the boat, Uncle Zhao said, it’s not safe onshore.”

Shen MO frowned imperceptibly.

How could they get on the boat without getting the full picture?

“Big brother, it’s pitch-dark over there, I’m scared…” Bai Youwei pulled on Shen Mo’s hand, her voice soft and pitiful, “Can we not go?”

Tan Xiao and Teacher Chang were both taken aback by her voice and looked at her in silence.

Shen MO, however, was used to it and calmly told the muscular man, “We don’t need to be rescued for now, thank you.”

Perhaps it was their first encounter with people who refused rescue, the muscular man and the young man were stunned, “What about the fire just now…”

Teacher Chang quickly explained, “We were cooking something, it’s not a rescue signal, sorry for the misunderstanding.”

The other party stared at them with a strange look. Everyone they had seen before was overjoyed at the sight of rescue, but Shen MO and the others were…

Well, rescue is a matter of mutual consent. If someone doesn’t need rescuing, of course, there’s no need to push.

The muscular man said: “Well… then, you guys be careful.”

Having said that, he got back on the boat with his people.

Shen MO also led his group back to the service area.

But they had only walked a few steps when someone on the boat called out to them again: “Hey! —Wait! Please wait a moment….
