Although Chi Yan was unwilling to form an alliance, being able to find a safe house would greatly reduce the danger for me.

The sky was just beginning to brighten, and the three of us started following the map to find the safe house.

With the broadcast's prompt, the number of participants in the game kept decreasing.

I roughly estimated in my mind that out of the original 20 players, only 11 were left now.

When we found the safe house, the sky was starting to darken.

We didn't have much food left, so Chi Yan caught a fish in the nearby water area.

I squatted by the bonfire and said, "I haven't had fish for a long time. My dad grills fish really well."

Chi Yan smiled and turned the fish over the fire. The fish's back turned golden brown, and the aroma filled the air.

"Well, I'm the opposite. I'm already tired of it, so this one's for you," Chi Yan handed me the roasted fish. I swallowed and looked at him, "You really won't eat?"

He took out some dry rations and took a bite, "This is enough for me. I dislike the fishy smell."

Tendo Sakura sat against the wall, staring at me with her eyes fixed, chewing on freshly dug wild vegetables.

The so-called safe house was just a temporary shelter made from an air-raid shelter. The entrance was surrounded by an iron fence, preventing others from getting in.

The only drawback was the lack of food and water sources.

Chi Yan handed me his jacket, checked the knives in his bag, and walked outside.

"Use the jacket as a cushion and don't catch a cold. I'll keep watch," he said.

His broad back gave an indescribable sense of security, like encountering a lifeboat in the middle of the ocean.

I turned my head and smelled the damp scent of grass, falling asleep peacefully.

In a daze, I heard Tendo Sakura's soft voice, "Why don't you kill her? We can win the championship together. Wouldn't that be better?"

I was startled and immediately walked cautiously towards the entrance of the cave.

Chi Yan grabbed Tendo Sakura's neck with his left hand and sneered.

"Why do you think I would abandon her and choose you?"

Tendo Sakura leaned seductively against Chi Yan's side, her fingertips grazing his arm, her eyes full of provocation.

"I have a better figure than her, I'm smarter than her, and I'm even more obedient than her. I'll listen to whatever you say..."

Chi Yan chuckled softly, as if he had heard a funny joke. He shook his head and when he lifted his eyes, they were filled with murderous intent.

"There's no one who can replace her in my heart, understand?"

Chi Yan made a horizontal cut across Tendo Sakura's neck with the knife, instantly causing her carotid artery to burst.

She opened her mouth in horror but couldn't say anything, then she heavily fell to the ground.

Blood splattered on his handsome face, and his expression remained unchanged.

It was like killing a fish.

"Chi Yan..."

Chi Yan lifted his head slightly, wiped the blood off his face with his hand, and the sinister look in his eyes instantly softened.

"Did I scare you?"

"In my heart, you are the best. If others say you're not good, it means they're saying I'm not good."

"I would want to kill her."
