Everyone has awakened, but I am the only mortal!

The man was wearing a gray hooded sweatshirt, with the hood always on his head and never taken off. He was also used to looking down, so even when Su Bai squatted down, he could only see most of the man's face, which was covered by messy hair. He couldn't see the man's expression or recognize him. He could only feel a faint chill emanating from the man.

"Brother, we have them." The boy's voice was clean and clear. As he spoke, he took out a whole bag of cookies and an unopened bottle of water from his pocket and held them up in front of Su Bai, indicating that they did not lack these things.

Su Bai smiled, withdrew his hand, picked up his things, and turned back to the bedside.

As soon as I opened the cookie packaging, a sweet aroma wafted out.

It's an Oreo.

This was the best food Su Bai had eaten in the seven months since the apocalypse.

He took out only one piece, chewed it slowly, and carefully put the rest back in his pocket.

He only took a small sip of water before tightening the cap and putting the bottle away carefully, cherishing it dearly.

Old Zhou leaned closer and asked indistinctly, "Why won't you give it to me?"

Su Bai looked up at him, her gaze falling on the biscuit clutched in Old Zhou's hand before slowly returning to his puzzled face. Although he didn't speak, his eyes conveyed a great deal of meaning.

Old Zhou's mouth was stuffed full of biscuits, his cheeks were bulging like a squirrel's, and he stared at Su Bai with wide, questioning eyes.

Su Bai: "..."

Old Zhou finished swallowing the biscuit in his mouth and muttered to himself, "Are Hei Zi and the others really okay after they went out?"

As she spoke, she secretly glanced towards the door, her eyes filled with disappointment.

Yesterday in the first room, everyone managed to grab a lot of food and water. If we eat sparingly, it should last us at least six days.

At this moment, the others also took out their food one after another and began to eat slowly. Finally, there was a faint smell of cooking in the room, but it still felt oppressive.

Su Bai withdrew his gaze, his tone calm: "I hope so."

Old Zhou mumbled a vague "uh".

Su Bai looked up at him: "You want something to happen?"

Old Zhou rolled his eyes and said in an annoyed tone, "I'm just angry! That monster is so biased! When we go out, it scares us in all sorts of ways, but when Hei Zi and the others go out, nothing happens to them. Can you believe it?"

Su Bai: "..."

He finally understood that Lao Zhou's focus was never on anything serious.

Su Bai didn't speak again, only responding to Lao Zhou's absurd and childish train of thought with silence.

Just then, a quarrel broke the peace of the room.

"What do you mean?!"

The one who shouted was the man who had gone out with Hei Zi earlier.

He had been sitting on the ground, but now, out of anger, he suddenly stood up, pointing his finger straight at Hei Zi, his face flushed red, and his eyes dark.

In such a suffocatingly oppressive environment, people's emotions are naturally prone to exploding at the slightest provocation.

Seeing that Hei Zi had caused the argument again, Old Zhou sneered, "He really is a mad dog, biting anyone he can get his hands on."

He didn't lower his voice, so Hei Zi heard it clearly and immediately glared at him fiercely.

Old Zhou wasn't afraid at all; instead, he raised his chin and looked back at him provocatively.

Hei Zi was too lazy to argue with him, and his attention was quickly drawn back to the furious man beside him.

The man continued to loudly defend himself: "I'm not crazy! I can see it clearly, there's a moon outside!"

Hei Zi chuckled, his tone dismissive and perfunctory: "Fine, Chen Hua, if you say so, then so be it."

This ambiguous attitude is not reassurance at all; it's more like looking at a madman.

The man was instantly enraged and completely lost control of his emotions: "What do you mean by that?!"

Hei Zi continued munching on his biscuit, completely ignoring him.

The man, who had been completely ignored, could no longer stand it and stepped forward to grab the black-haired man.

A seemingly honest-looking man next to him quickly got up and pulled him aside.

"Chen Hua, let it go, the haters didn't say anything..."

Chen Hua was the man who went out with Hei Zi, and he was also the man who was angry at this moment.

"This is what you call not saying anything?" Chen Hua roared, his eyes red. "He clearly thinks I'm hallucinating from fright! I only went out with him because of our past relationship, and he just treats me like a fool!"

"Don't get excited, don't get excited..."

Annoyed by the noise, Hei Zi looked up at the honest man trying to break up the fight: "Li Wei, let him go. I want to see what he can do to me."

Li Wei was caught in a dilemma and anxiously advised, "Hei Zi, he's just like this when he gets angry. Let's just let it go."

It would have been better if they hadn't tried to persuade him; the more they tried, the more arrogant Chen Hua became.

Hei Zi put away the cookies, slowly stood up, grabbed Chen Hua by the collar, and shoved him aside.

The two instantly started fighting, exchanging punches and kicks, rolling around in a heap.

Li Wei tried to step in to break up the fight, but couldn't get a foothold. Frustrated, he turned and called for Ma Jun to intervene.

Ma Jun sat steadily on the ground, not moving an inch, and simply said, "When you get tired of fighting, you'll naturally stop."

Seeing that Ma Jun wouldn't listen, Li Wei had no choice but to bite the bullet and approach him again to persuade him.

Old Zhou, his mouth full of biscuits, chewed as he watched the spectacle, spewing crumbs as he spoke: "Not bad, they're really going at it, they're almost rolling onto our bed."

Su Bai narrowed his eyes, staring intently at the two fighting, but his focus was on the content of their argument.

One said there was a moon, the other said there wasn't.

Which one is telling the truth? Which one is lying?

If what Chen Hua said is true, then what does it mean that one person saw the moon and the other did not?

As Lao Zhou had said, Hei Zi and Chen Hua fought all the way to the bedside.

Su Bai and Lao Zhou, fearing they would be affected, both moved further into the bed.

While trying to break up the fight, Li Wei kept apologizing to them.

The two wrestled and tumbled all the way to Luo Zheng and Zheng Yi.

Zheng Yi coldly replied, "Whether it's true or false, we'll know once we go out and take another look."

One sentence woke Chen Hua up.

He held onto Hei Zi tightly, refusing to let go: "That's right! Go out again! I'll show you whether there's a moon outside or not!"

Hei Zi tried to shake him off a few times but couldn't, so he simply let him hold him, a mocking smile playing on his lips: "Going out again? Are you sure your pants can still hold up?"

Everyone was stunned, and their eyes instinctively turned to Chen Hua's lower body. His gray pants, upon closer inspection, revealed that the crotch area was a darker color than the rest of his pants.

Chen Hua felt like he'd been stepped on, instantly becoming extremely embarrassed and angry: "Hey! Don't look down on me! I'll go out right now and prove you wrong!"

Before he could finish speaking, he abruptly shook off Hei Zi and rushed straight to the door.

Before anyone could react, he had already flung open the door, stepped into the boundless darkness, and his figure was instantly swallowed up.

The next second—

"Bang!"

The door was slammed shut by an invisible force.
