Chapter 481: Chapter 481: Which One Will It Be?
If Su Man’s hand really was seriously injured, wouldn’t she be risking her life going into the maze alone?
Bai Youwei frowned and asked, “Does Su Man have any tools on her?”
“Probably just the Snowflake left,” Zhu Shu expressed with concern, “The water monster’s eggs have been used up, and apart from the Snowflake, she doesn’t have any puzzles or tools. Her parents mentioned that there are a few first aid supplies and weapons missing from the house, which must have been taken by her.”
“But how would she know where the maze is?” Bai Youwei was puzzled, “If she wanted to go to the maze, she would need to know its location, right? She can’t just wander aimlessly.”
Zhu Shu hesitated for a moment, then said quietly, “Her father works for the organization; he might have some information we don’t know about. It’s not impossible that Su Man obtained some clues about the maze from him.”
But in the end, these were all just speculations.
Bai Youwei suggested, “Why don’t we ask Professor Song?”
Zhu Shu gently shook her head.
Professor Song was a special presence within the base.
When he wanted to see you, it would seem like quite a mundane and easy affair.
But if he didn’t want to see you, when he was engrossed in his research, trying to get an appointment with him was as difficult as reaching the heavens. Even the organization leader, Chu Huaijin, might not be able to see Professor Song.
Shen Mo said: “It’s the same if we look for Chu Huaijin. If there’s any information about the maze, as the main person in charge, he should know.”
“Yeah, worth checking out,” responded Bai Youwei, “If we want to collect puzzles, sooner or later, we need to find out about the maze.”
Without further delay, after discussions, Shen Mo left to find Chu Huaijin.
They thought it would take some time to know the results, but Shen Mo quickly returned.
Chu Huaijin had also come, and he brought a map and two sheets of paper with him.
The two sheets of paper were very thin and nearly transparent. They depicted some red dots and yellow areas. The patterns looked similar but had some local differences.
Chu Huaijin explained, “These should have been delivered to you yesterday. This was the reward initially promised to you, the marked maps of the maze and the game.”
“You have to know that neither the maze nor the game’s locations are fixed. The maze will expand in diameter, and the game will randomly shift. So Professor Song worked tirelessly last night to make these corrections. One of these pages shows the results from a month ago, and the other reflects the corrections from last night. With our current technology, we can only guarantee 70% accuracy. We hope it will be of help to you.”
“That’s enough,” Shen Mo said nonchalantly, taking the two sheets and placing them on the map.
The red dots and yellow areas overlapped with the map, making it immediately clear. The yellow overlay was the maze, and the red dots represented the game.
“Is this the largest area we can currently detect?” asked Shen Mo.
The map he was holding was slightly larger than a city map, covering the surrounding provinces and cities, but it didn’t include any farther places.
Chu Huaijin nodded, “Yes. Since establishing the base, the research team’s personnel and equipment have been heavily depleted. The detection range now is already the base’s limit.”
Shen Mo frowned, looking at Bai Youwei and Zhu Shu beside him.
“Looking at the map, the two closest mazes are to the north, towards Xuzhou, and to the south, towards Fuzhou. Su Man should be in one of them.”
Zhu Shu and Bai Youwei looked at each other.
Two mazes, all unknowns, and judging by the distance, they were not far apart. So… which maze did Su Man likely go to?
