They made their mark and then took another path, setting off again into the depths of the maze.
They once again explored until dusk and then returned along the same path they had taken.
Back at the center of the maze, everyone was exhausted. The teacher, Cheng, didn’t cook dinner. Everyone had lost their appetite due to Lin Zihang’s incident anyhow. They made do with a quick meal of instant noodles.
Just as they were about to go to bed, another incident took place – Tu Dan was missing two students.
During the day, everyone moved freely. Tu Dan didn’t put too many restrictions on the students, only reminding them that wherever they went, they must not go alone. Whether it was for food or restroom breaks, they should always go in groups of at least two.
However, when they did a headcount in the evening, two people were missing.
Tu Dan found himself in a dilemma.
It was already late, and the missing students still hadn’t returned. Should he look for them, or not?
—If he decided to look for them, what would happen if something else went wrong?
—But if he didn’t look for them, what if the students were in danger? At this moment, a girl stood up and said, “How about… I go look for them?” The one who spoke was Liao JingJing.
Tu Dan’s faced darkened instantly, “Sit down. Girls should not run around at night to avoid danger.”
“There won’t be any danger…” Liao JingJing managed a weak smile, pulling a boy beside her closer, she said, “Yang Yi and I will go together. We’ll be fine.” Yang Yi?
Tu Dan looked at him in surprise. Yang Yi hung his head low, muttered an indistinct “Hmm” in response but offered no explanation.
Liao JingJing linked her arm with his and said to Tu Dan: “They might be lost somewhere. Although we are all familiar with the surroundings, many places are not marked. Yang Yi and I will look for them nearby and return shortly…”
As she was speaking, she began to lead Yang Yi towards the entrance of the maze.
“Stop right there!” Tu Dan’s face was grim as he stared at Liao JingJing. “Are you planning to go to the door?”
A momentary stiffness crossed Liao JingJing’s face. She stifled a grimace and said softly, “If we can’t find them nearby…perhaps we’ll check there. They might have gone to the door.” “Liao JingJing!” Tu Dan stood.
There was a suppressed rage in her voice, and all the students turned to look.
“I said, no one is allowed to go there until we have discussed it!” Tu Dan questioned Liao JingJing sternly. “Are you trying to take advantage of this situation to go to the exit? Have you forgotten everything I said last time?” Liao JingJing’s face flushed and then turned pale.
Tu Dan turned to Yang Yi: “Yang Yi! Do you want to go too? Was it your decision or did she force you?!”
Tu Dan knew her students. Although Yang Yi was the tallest and the strongest in the class, he was the most easily persuaded. It wouldn’t be strange if he was influenced by Liao JingJing, especially after Lin Zihang’s incident.
Just as she suspected, after she confronted him, Yang Yi awkwardly pulled his arm free and muttered to Liao JingJing, “You can go alone… I… I won’t go…” “You promised me just now!” Liao JingJing was embarrassed and annoyed.
“Liao JingJing, go back to your tent!” Tu Dan reprimanded her sternly. “Stop causing trouble! It’s dangerous there! What on earth are you thinking?!”
“It’s you, Teacher Tu!” Liao JingJing shouted anxiously. “What are YOU thinking? We’ve already found the exit, but we’re not doing anything about it! Why would we continue to stay in a place like this?! Are we waiting for death?
Huh?!!”
Her indignation was mixed with a sense of aggrievement. Throwing a resentful glare at Yang Yi, she said, “Forget it! I’ll go on my own!”
With that, she turned and stormed towards the entrance of the maze! “Liao JingJing! Come back!” Tu Dan shouted frantically, standing up to give chase.
The two struggled and scuffled around the fountain.
Liao JingJing, irritated by Tu Dan’s pulling and tugging, resolved to push her away with all her might!
“Leave me alone!!!”
“Teacher Tu!????? ” The students gasped in shock!
Tu Dan’s body recoiled back, her pupils dilating in fear.. The next instant, she fell into the fountain pool!
