Translator: 549690339

How could everyone not know what to do after hearing something like this? So every individual immersed themselves in their own world and began earnestly searching for anything that could be deemed as a clue.

With no one speaking, the whole room fell into silence for a moment, each person pondering how to proceed.

But just when no one expected it, Suri Drew, off to the side, seemed to have discovered something, her eyes shining with a hint of brightness as she excitedly addressed everyone.

“Oh my god, look what I found!”

Upon hearing her words, everyone’s gaze naturally shifted in her direction, not knowing what she had discovered.

Looking more closely, they found some supplies in a drawer, including some small breads and a few bottles of mineral water.

Everyone was naturally overjoyed, moving forward to Suri and incredulously looking at these items, saying.

“I can’t believe you actually found these things!”

Hearing this, Suri laughed and nodded her head.

“Yeah, I didn’t expect it either. The cabinet was well-hidden, and I didn’t notice it at first. I came here after searching everywhere else and finding nothing.”

But little Luke picked up a piece of bread and, seeing the expiration date, couldn’t hide the concern on his face as he spoke.

“But this has already expired.”

Upon hearing this, everyone examined the dates on the other items more closely and realized they had indeed expired. The smiles on their faces vanished in an instant, replaced by expressions of

displeasure.

They had thought they finally found some food, and they should be delighted, but they never expected it to turn out this way.

In the end, Suri could only shake her head.

“I should’ve known.”

After all, considering the room’s layout and state of disarray, it seemed as if no one had been there in a long time, and dust had settled everywhere. How could anything edible be fresh?

But everyone had been without food for so long that anything to eat seemed like a gift from heaven.

If they didn’t eat now, they wouldn’t know if they could hold on any longer.

But their hearts were filled with fear. What if they got sick from eating expired food?

The situation was already dire, and any misstep could mean a terrible fate.

Even with such a small matter, they had to thoroughly discuss it, unable to make any decision in a short amount of time.

Any mistake would be too much responsibility for anyone to bear.

Everyone remained silent, each glancing at the others, seemingly aware of their thoughts but not voicing them.

After a while, Suri couldn’t help but speak up.

“Even if it’s expired, it should still be edible, right? It might not be good for our health, but given our current situation, what else can we do?”

Hearing her words, Yigol Novak couldn’t help but nod in agreement.

“I think so too. We’re already lucky to have found something to eat. If we’re picky at this point, it’s just…”

He closed his mouth before he could finish, not wanting to say anything else.

Of course, everyone knew the unspoken meaning behind his words.

But Price and Luke, off to the side, were genuinely worried.

They glanced at each other, and then Price hesitantly spoke up.

“We’re mainly afraid that if we eat this stuff, we might get sick. Our situation is already difficult as it is, and if something like that happens, wouldn’t it become even harder?”

As soon as Price finished speaking, Luke nodded without hesitation and added.

“Yeah, I’m worried about that too. Even though we haven’t eaten for a long time, we should still think carefully.”

What they said wasn’t unreasonable, and they were simply considering everyone’s well-being.

But Suri and Yigol could hardly bear it any longer.

They had never been hungry for such a long time before.

Moreover, they had no idea if it was day or night outside, nor did they know how much time had passed.

But they were certain it had been ages.

So whether to eat or not was a matter of opinion, and different people had their own concerns.

“I know you’re worried about getting sick, but if we don’t eat now, we might not be able to hold on,” Suri argued, frowning as her stomach growled audibly.

Yigol was slightly better off.

Despite being poor for a time, Yigol had experienced hunger, whereas Suri came from a life offortune, never knowing what it was like to go hungry.

With their current situation, how could this not be a torment for her?

Yigol could naturally see that his wife had been enduring for a long time, and at this moment he clenched his teeth and spoke up.

“How about this: I’ll try it first and see if anything happens. If it’s alright, then you eat.”

Even though this seemed like a solution, Suri was still very worried about Yigol’s health and hesitant about their choice.

“But what if something happens to you?”

Yigol, however, didn’t seem to care. He simply raised his hand, waved it nonchalantly, and smiled.RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at nô(v)e(l)bin/.c/o/m Only

“It’s no big deal. You know how strong I am, and I’m not going to get sick just from eating an expired piece of bread.”

And so it was decided, but everyone was still worried. They didn’t want Yigol to have any problems during such a dire situation.
