Jin Xiaoman: "According to the question, A knows that B does not, which can only mean one thing: B has the date in at least two months. Therefore, the month that A has given is July or August, because May has a separate 19th that needs to be eliminated, and June has a separate 18th that needs to be eliminated."

"B said he didn't know at first, but he knew after A mentioned it. This means that after excluding May and June, that date is the only date in July and August. That is, excluding the 14th, we are left with July 16, August 15, and August 17."

"A said he knew that, which proves that the month he received could only be July, otherwise it would still be uncertain."

"Therefore, the warden's last birthday was July 16th."

The princess looked appreciative and nodded slightly.

A soft, warm orange light fell upon the three of them, silently enveloping them.

In an instant, Jin Xiaoman felt an unprecedented sense of relaxation and comfort. The physical fatigue and tension of the past few days were released at this moment, as if a child had returned to its mother's embrace.

The princess's beautiful pale green eyes held a smile: "Besides the generous gifts I promised at the beginning, this is an extra favor I'm giving you, the highest reward of our Vilanor Empire, the protection of the Mother Goddess."

"It will repair all the injuries in your body and strengthen your constitution. From today onwards, for the next month, you will no longer suffer from insomnia or be sad about not being able to eat. Your body will always be in the best condition, and even injuries will heal faster."

Jin Xiaoman rolled up her sleeves, and the abrasions on her arms had indeed healed.

The three were overjoyed and sincerely said, "Thank you, Your Highness, and happy birthday!"

The princess covered her mouth and chuckled, "I need to go find my mother to answer my lessons, and then I'll hold my eighteenth birthday ceremony. I won't keep the three of you."

A maid in a long dress appeared just in time and escorted the three of them out of the instance game.

…………

Jin Xiaoman returned to the safe house and immediately checked the time on her watch; four hours had passed since she entered the game.

This indicates that the flow of time inside the instance is the same as outside the instance.

According to the long-skirted maid, all ten people present at the time were players who correctly guessed the princess's preferences, so each person's reward was 10 treasure chests and 50 game coins.

The three of them, with three times the original amount, have a total of 40 treasure chests and 209 game coins.

٩(๑>◡<๑)۶

However, Jin Xiaoman believes that there is something more important for her to do before opening the treasure chest.

She took out some food and trotted over to the squirrel, lying down on the wooden plank to talk to it: "Mr. Squirrel, were you scared by your sudden disappearance? Would you like something to eat to calm your nerves?"

The squirrel, whose head was originally buried in its body, opened its eyes to look at Jin Xiaoman upon hearing this. Although it did not understand what Jin Xiaoman was saying, it miraculously understood that this person had come to comfort it.

It was indeed startled by Jin Xiaoman's sudden disappearance.

But what followed was more confusion and resentment.

Because of that terrifying dream, it had been very careful, trying to keep its distance from Jin Xiaoman. It was Jin Xiaoman who took advantage of the rat's inattention and launched a sneak attack, "kidnapping" the rat to her safe house. After cooking a meal, the rat disappeared.

Without reason or notice, they simply disappeared.

Normally, upon encountering such a situation, it should leave immediately and return to the forest.

But it didn't leave.

Fortunately, reality is the opposite of the dream; Jin Xiaoman has returned.

The squirrel waved its paws among watermelons, raspberries, and Want Want Little Buns, almost turning into a beckoning cat with its paws waving sideways.

Seeing this, Jin Xiaoman directly stuffed a small piece of Want Want Little Bun into its mouth.

The squirrel was surprised for a moment, then began to chew.

Jin Xiaoman took the opportunity to gently pet the squirrel: "These are all for you to eat."

Fearing the squirrel would get angry after she petted it, she put the food in the small bowl in front of the squirrel and slipped back to the table.

Based on the previous discussions in the small group, Jin Xiaoman decided to hold a grand and mysterious prayer ceremony before opening the treasure chest.

She cleared her throat and spread her arms wide: "Great treasure chest, please grant me more Hearts of Purification, designated potions, blind box potions, all kinds of talismans, oh yes, and game coins."

Bow three times in sincere devotion.

Whether it was due to the mysterious ritual or not, Jin Xiaoman felt that the reward this time was indeed better than before.

She shared the situation in a small group chat and received a denial from user number 2775: "[I still got all sorts of weapons, but I wished for a bag of tomato-flavored potato chips.]"

Loves wearing princess dresses: [Who would have thought our tough, strong-willed older brother would have such a thing as a princess?]

The bighorn bull puffed out its chest and charged forward: "So what? I like pink too! How can you be so stereotypical?"

Loves wearing princess dresses: [Don't even mention you like pink. I wouldn't be surprised if you showed up in front of me wearing a dress one day. You failed your physical exam, bro. What kind of integrity do you have?]

The bull puffed out its chest and charged forward: "...Harsh words in June wound the heart."

Jin Xiaoman sent a bag of tomato-flavored potato chips to user number 2775: "You're welcome. After all, I'm beautiful inside and out, but please remember my kindness."

She was about to tease the Great Horned Bull a little more when a private message arrived: "[As we agreed, I'll tell you how to find the ghouls and their weaknesses, and you tell me the details of today's game.]"

He comforted himself, thinking that ghouls were only monsters that appeared during the rainy season, and they would be useless after the rainy season, when other natural disasters and new monsters would appear.

It's just a matter of not wanting the 10 game coins and not signing a confidentiality agreement.

He doesn't care.

Men have pride!

After exchanging messages, Zhou Dazhuang couldn't help but add, "[Let's make this clear first, I didn't lie about the ghoul. He's my bread and butter. I don't care if you pass it on to your friends, but if you make it known throughout the entire 888 section, then we'll have to fight to the death.]"

Money galore: [I promise.]

Jin Xiaoman wasn't so busy that she would tell everyone she met; at most, she would share it with people in a small group.

Money Galore: [It is said that the ghoul's weak point is its right chest. It requires multiple consecutive hits to inflict a total of 15 points of damage before it will die. The extra 5 points of damage are the defense provided by its clothing.]

Number 2775: [Just as I guessed.]

Money Galore: [The way to find ghouls is to carry a green stalk of grass with you. Remember, don't put it in your backpack, but keep it on your person. This way, ghouls will come looking for you.]

Bighorn Bull puffed out his chest and charged forward: "He said he wouldn't sell to you, so why did he sell now? You didn't even sign a confidentiality agreement?"

Money Galore: [We made a deal. Let's agree beforehand that even without a confidentiality agreement, everyone should try not to share this, since it's someone else's paid content.]

Big Horn Bull puffed out its chest and charged forward: "At least you have some moral bottom line."

"My punch weighs 300 tons": [Have you guys checked the public chat? Something's happened.]
