In the afternoon, everyone from our dormitory went to the library.

Fortunately, we arrived early and managed to grab seats.

Xiao Ze and Huang Pang sat close to us.

Sun Huawen sent a message in the group: "Do not share any information from our group with anyone else, including Xiao Ze and Huang Pang."

I understand the reasoning.

Now, the interests of our neutral faction no longer align with the rule faction. Although there hasn't been a conflict of interests, people... well...

It's like even though I used to have a good relationship with Xiao Ze, I still firmly stand with my own team.

Now we're just waiting for Sun Huawen to figure out the timing.

Sun Huawen sent another message: "Day five, depart at 4 a.m."

Next, Sun Huawen began explaining why we should depart at 4 a.m.:

The "wolf pack" refers to some kind of danger, but I don't know what exactly.

The information says that at 4 a.m., we can go watch the moon, and if we're lucky, the wolf pack will relax their vigilance.

What does it mean to be lucky?

Luck can be described in terms of probability.

According to the rules, we have to stay in school for seven days.

Within those seven days, if there's a day when the wolf pack relaxes their vigilance, then the probability arises, and that's considered lucky.

The key is, on which day will the wolf pack relax their vigilance?

Do you still remember the number for escape?

Yes, it's 5, the one that escaped.

The fifth day represents a one-seventh probability, which is considered lucky—the moment when the wolf pack relaxes their vigilance.

I didn't understand the meaning of the "brother" question in the middle.

Zhou Yiqiang quickly answered, "It's probably just a misleading option. Let's not worry about it. I can't wait to escape."

If we didn't receive the information about escaping on the fifth day, Zhou Yiqiang's information wouldn't have any meaning.

The information is interconnected, and we're really fortunate to gather information that can piece together our escape route through its fortuitous nature.

According to Sun Huawen's analysis, the rule we have to break this time is:

【Do not leave the dormitory after midnight; wait until dawn.】

After leaving the library, Xiao Ze asked us, "Shall we have a meal together?"

"Maybe tomorrow. Zhou Yiqiang has been trying to lose weight lately, and he insists on dragging us along," I replied.

"Why the sudden weight loss?"

"He's afraid of being too fat and unable to outrun the Student Union."

Xiao Ze didn't ask any further. Perhaps he also knew that even if he did, he would only get meaningless answers.

We couldn't return to the dormitory before 8 p.m.

So the four of us strolled around the campus side by side.

Despite the lurking dangers, it didn't hinder our laughter and joy.

There were more and more people with dogs, but it seemed like they couldn't attack students at will.

There were conditions.

I don't know what those conditions are, and I don't care.

Perhaps they can only attack acquaintances?

Anyway, we don't meet the conditions.

After wandering around, we returned to the entrance of the cafeteria, where Xiao Ze and Huang Pang happened to come out.

"Shall we go back together?" Xiao Ze asked.

"Sure," we agreed.

I knew this would be the last time we would return to the dormitory together with them.

We...

Unconsciously, Xiao Ze and Huang Pang are no longer included in the "us."

They are now themselves.
