Just as their favorite contestant had escaped death, the Coffee Country spectators, who had been praying for success, had barely had a chance to breathe a sigh of relief when they were stunned by the nonchalant gaze of the Huaguo.

That gaze contained no mockery, but rather a condescending scrutiny, seemingly knowing everything yet remaining noncommittal.

[... Friends, I don't want to dwell on that Huaguo player, but he looks really dangerous (screams while clutching head)]

[What kind of look is that? Does he want to be the first to kill Itanu?!]

[Calm down! Look at his nonchalant calm; Itanu is nothing to him.]

[?]

[I mean, we can rest assured, Itanu isn't a threat worth targeting specifically.]

[Itanu, don't look, it's a bad review!]

Xu Xi glanced at the Tattooed Man briefly when he returned, then looked away and continued staring out the window in a daze.

He just took out his phone and took a picture.

Unsurprisingly, the plane was almost completely filled with swirling black smoke.

But that's all.

This is also where the limitation of this Item lies.

Although he can capture images of things invisible to the naked eye, he can't obtain much information when the object itself is flawed.

He paid attention to the Tattooed Man because the man's seat was closest to his.

More importantly, everyone had already gone to the Restroom before gathering.

He didn't know much about others, but he had secretly observed them.

Everything inside looked normal; there was nothing particularly noteworthy.

So even though there's nothing there... what's the other person doing there all of a sudden?

Was there some clue he hadn't noticed?

With this in mind, Xu Xi was already considering whether or not to go as well.

After all, the "wait and see" strategy was just a backup plan when he had no clue about the Dungeon.

However, after reassessing the time, he realized that it wouldn't be long before they had to regroup.

... The Tattooed Man stayed inside for quite some time.

Ultimately, he decided to wait until after the assembly to see how things went.

Itanu ended his "conversation" with his neighbor and leaned back in his chair with a somber expression.

I initially checked the time just to be on the safe side, but I didn't expect there would actually be a problem.

He felt that although his experience in the Restroom was thrilling, it clearly didn't take much time, but the actual time that passed outside was twice as long as he felt.

Upon seeing this, the viewers in the live chat also began to ponder the reason for the inconsistent flow of time.

There are many guesses, but few are reliable.

In summary, we know it's a clue, but we don't know what kind of clue it is.

Itanu was no exception.

He is not known for his analytical skills; most of the time he relies more on force, intuition, and special abilities.

At that moment, his intuition told him that the black-haired, black-eyed youth might know something.

Itanu turned his head, his gaze passing over the rows of seats behind him and landing on someone.

We need to gather them together.

As several teammates passed by, Xu Xi followed behind them.

Upon entering the Restroom again, he immediately and discreetly scanned the area.

... It was exactly the same as when I left; there was still no sign of anything unusual.

He suspected he might have overlooked something; otherwise, why would that Tattooed Man be staying there for so long for no apparent reason?

It can't be pooping, can it?

Just as Xu Xi's thoughts were about to wander off course, the blonde woman with the ponytail spoke, catching his attention.

Aleksye, fiddling with the finger guard on his left ring finger, was the first to share the information he had gathered.

"You've probably all noticed, haven't you? The crucial information about this aircraft has been hidden."

"Furthermore, the first and business class cabins appeared normal, but there was no one in the Cockpit, and I didn't see any flight attendants during the Flight Attendant."

A passenger plane was cruising, but there was no one in the Cockpit?

Even in Dungeon, everyone else felt a sense of unreality and absurdity.

After all, everyone knows that even if someone just goes to the Restroom, there will never be fewer than two people in the cockpit.

Not to mention the Flight Attendants who have vanished without a trace.

Yet these passengers seemed perfectly normal.

"It's really strange. If this plane matches what's in the news, then there's no need to hide the information at all."

Twenty minutes was enough time for Manya to complete some tests and, incidentally, get some information out of the passengers.

Then she changed the subject.

"I tried a few things, but unfortunately, time stood still on this plane."

Upon hearing this, Itanu couldn't help but frown. "What do you mean?"

Manya looked at him calmly. "Literally, time hasn't flowed at all on this plane; we might be in some kind of special state."

Aleksye narrowed his eyes as he looked at Itanu, whose reaction seemed somewhat subtle.

What have you been through?
