"I'm fine too."
The girl in the couple continued to answer, and then she picked her ears as she listened to the man's retching sound, "Please stop vomiting, I can't control the urge to vomit."
Fu Anan checked once again that she was intact, and she found a place far away. She was fine, but with so many people missing in the past three days, it felt like everyone would be in trouble soon.
While everyone was talking, she went to the largest statue and lay down to take a look.
The inside was very narrow, just enough for a palm to fit in. It was pitch black inside, and even with a light I couldn't see clearly what was going on inside.
"Hey, little girl, everyone is here discussing something, what are you doing?"
This roar attracted all eyes.
The young couple had already noticed her movements and were looking at her threateningly, worried that she would tell others what had just happened.
Then…
"I just saw the two of them pick up something under the statue, so I wanted to see if there was anything else."
If you beg her, she might cooperate, but what's the point of threatening her with your eyes
Fu Anan looked at them.
"There's nothing in there."
The man in the couple stood up and said, "We were checking carefully and then touching her down there. Don't listen to what this woman says."
"Oh, I must have seen it wrong just now."
Fu Anan shrugged and sat back in his seat.
She didn't know what was going on with the NPC, but most players were suspicious by nature. If there was anything worthy of suspicion, this suspicion would sow the seeds of distrust in their hearts.
For example, at this moment, several people were circling around the statue, and the couple's faces became very bad from then on.

“You’re not doing this right.”
The short-haired woman suddenly sat down next to Fu Anan and reminded her, "The current situation is so special. More friends mean more options. You've offended two people at once. It's very dangerous, you know?"
Fu Anan looked at her, "But I didn't lie."
"I know you didn't lie, but you shouldn't say it at a time like this."
The short-haired woman said earnestly, "Adding two more enemies for no reason will not bring any benefit at all."
"ah-"
Fu Anan stretched out his voice, as if it was unbelievable.
"Hey, I see you haven't thought about it."
The short-haired girl whispered to her, "Just follow me from behind. Just call me Sister Yang."
Having said so much, we are finally getting on the right track - forming cliques.
"Uh-huh."
Fu Anan nodded, "I really want to go back."
"Don't worry, I will definitely try my best to get you back."
Yang Zitao reached out and touched Fu Anan's head, "By the way, how much supplies do you have left now?"
"ah?"
Fu Anan looked at her sideways when she heard that.
"Don't get me wrong. I just want to remind you that if someone else wants your supplies, don't sell them or give them away. We may be stuck here for a long time, so we have to save food and water."
Yang Zitao explained, "Also, don't sleep too deeply at night."
Fu Anan: "Yeah, I'll listen to you."
After hearing Fu Anan's answer, Yang Zitao took her to a small group of only four people, which made Officer Zhang, who was sitting in the crowd, look at her several times.
"Officer, they are still forming cliques even at this time."
The man who came back with Zhang Qiang spoke beside him in a rather servile manner.
"It doesn't matter, I just hope everyone is well."
Zhang Qiang seemed to be very generous and fair when he spoke, then he stood up and coughed twice to attract everyone's attention, "Everyone listen, we still have enough food, but we don't have enough drinking water. If the rescue team doesn't arrive tomorrow and the fog doesn't dissipate, we must go outside to find water tomorrow."
"Does anyone disagree?"
No one would disagree.
That's credibility.
Zhang Qiang was very satisfied with their obedience and cooperation.

night
A dozen people gathered around a dying fire, and the sounds of talking in their sleep, snoring, and grinding teeth were all heard.
In a corner, a person was holding his stomach with a pale face, gasping for air in pain.
This person was none other than the man who had returned from looking for someone.
His abnormality startled the people around him.
"What’s wrong with you?"
"I suddenly have a stomachache and need to poop."
The man replied, holding his stomach, "Any paper?"
"… have."
The man pulled out two sheets of toilet paper from his luggage.
"Can you give me more, bro? This isn't enough."
"It's good to have some. I have so little paper, I have to keep some for myself."
In this situation, even toilet paper is expensive.
There was no dedicated toilet, so they could only relieve themselves behind the farthest statue. The man slowly stood up and trotted to that place, making a discordant sound.

Game Day 4
Another person died.
Just as the sky was getting light, a piercing scream was heard. An old lady who was going to the bathroom in the morning was startled by a body lying on the ground. She collapsed to the ground, completely stunned.
The corpse on the ground had a hole cut out in its stomach, and its entire body was sticking up, its anus had exploded, and there were worms crawling on it. The worms and excrement mixed together and scattered everywhere, some of them had already crawled far away.
Quite a powerful scene.
No one can resist the urge to vomit.
"Old woman, get up, there are bugs!"
Suddenly, an older man shouted, and the frightened old lady who had sat down quickly got up, only to see a worm on her palm, drilling into her blood vessels.
“Oh my god!”
The old lady screamed, grabbed the bug and pulled it out hard.
The insect's body was stretched, and its dark red body covered with mucus and blood was pulled out from the arm. The wound on the aunt's wrist immediately began to bleed. Smelling the blood, the other insects also began to move closer to the aunt.
"Step on them! Step on them to death!"
Someone shouted, and everyone started to move.
Of course you can't kill them by stepping on them, but at least you can flatten them and stop them from crawling around.
Every time I stepped on one, blood spurted out of its body. The blood stuck to the soles of my shoes, mixed with corpses, bugs, and excrement...
"Old man, I can't stay here any longer. I want to go home!"
"vomit!"
"Disgusting, this is really disgusting. I want to leave here. Officer Zhang, please think of a solution!"
…
After waiting for so long for rescue, on the fourth day of the game, the NPCs' inner anxiety finally erupted. They all surrounded Zhang Qiang and begged him to take them away.
"Everyone, don't worry, deal with the corpses and bugs first, then we can talk about other things."
Zhang Qiang calmed everyone down and said, "Gather the dead insects together and burn them first."
The old lady next to him was so scared that she scratched her wrist hard and hugged her husband.
