The five of them remained locked in a standoff for a long while, staring wide-eyed at one another. The whole scene was indescribably bizarre.
At last, Baili Pangpang was the first to break the silence.
"Ahem, um... are you guys here to vacation at the Dive Base too?" Baili Pangpang scratched his head and asked tentatively.
Dive Base?
Upon hearing those words, the three believers all froze and exchanged glances...
Fifth Seat's eyes were filled more with confusion and accusation. He stared into Second Seat's eyes as if saying: Didn't you say this was the Abstinence Hall? What the hell was this Dive Base?
Meanwhile, Second Seat's eyes held nothing but profound bewilderment and self-doubt.
That can't be right... the intelligence clearly said this was the place. How could it be a Dive Base... could the intelligence have been wrong?
As for Shen Qingzhu, he looked at the two believers beside him, then at Baili Pangpang and Cao Yuan in the distance. His expression beneath the mask was utterly spectacular.
"Ah, hahaha..." Fifth Seat and Second Seat exchanged a brief look, then the former gave an awkward laugh. "Yeah, right, we... we're from this Dive Club. We came here to have some fun.
Are you... here to have fun too?"
Baili Pangpang and Cao Yuan exchanged a glance, then laughed as well. "Yeah, so are we! Hehehe..."
"Uh, welcome, welcome!"
"Hehehehe, same to you."
"The scenery here is really nice, huh!"
"Yes, yes, you're right."
"Mm-hm."
"Mm..."
"..."
"..."
After a thoroughly meaningless and exceptionally bizarre exchange, the air sank into silence once more.
"Um... we'll go look around over there. You guys keep... uh, sunbathing! We won't disturb you!" Fifth Seat gave Second Seat and Shen Qingzhu a look, then hurried off into the distance.
