After all, in terms of strength, he was no match for Shen Yu. In terms of intelligence, he was also inferior to Shen Yu and Huo Wujìu.
Shen Yu said, "Don't put yourself down."
"Really? Oh, right, why were you eating just now? Were you hungry?"
Why hadn't he let that go yet? Shen Yu thought. Isn't he actually pretty sharp?
"Yes, I was hungry."
Wen Zhishu eyed him suspiciously, then noticed Shen Yu's right hand twitching unnaturally.
Alarmed, he hurriedly grabbed Shen Yu's right hand to examine it. "What's wrong with your hand?"
"Uh... it cramped. It's nothing."
"What's this?"
Then Wen Zhishu suddenly shouted in his ear.
Shen Yu felt as though he had just suffered a sonic attack. Wen Zhishu's shouting nearly deafened him.
"There's a Red Thread on your hand. Could something be trying to harm you?"
He looked at his own hand again, only to find nothing there.
Just as Shen Yu was thinking about what excuse to use to fool him—
Wen Zhishu immediately shouted again, "It must have noticed that you found several clues as soon as you arrived and was afraid you'd really break the loop, so it targeted you. After all, that thing even knew to post online to lure people in. It must be highly intelligent."
"Come on, let's find Huo Wujìu and see if he has any ideas."
The two went upstairs.
They discovered that the door was actually open, with voices coming from inside.
Afraid something might have happened inside, Wen Zhishu rushed in.
Only to find three more people there.
"So it's you. What are you three doing here?"
"Oh, right, let me introduce you. These three are Zhong Xun, Ye Ran, and Su Nian."
"This is Shen Yu. He also came here after seeing the post."
