Chapter 55

Just as she finished drinking two cups of tea, a black-clad person knocked on the door to deliver breakfast.

"Only steamed buns and milk?" Gu Nanyan frowned. "Your hotel's breakfast is terrible."

The black-clad person was speechless: "Miss, have you forgotten where you are? Did you think this was a five-star hotel? You should be grateful we're providing free breakfast at all."

Instead of taking the breakfast, Gu Nanyan stepped aside to let the black-clad person bring it in.

She was truly treating him like a hotel waiter.

The black-clad person thought to himself: "...I'll endure this!"

He continued his inner monologue: Just wait until you run out of money, let's see how arrogant you'll be then.

As if Gu Nanyan could hear his thoughts, she glanced up at him and said, "I've booked the hotel for a month. Even if I run out of money, I can survive on the free breakfast until I leave the island."

The black-clad person was stunned into silence.

He desperately wanted to dump the soy milk on her head.

After placing the breakfast down, the black-clad person was about to leave when Gu Nanyan called out: "Wait."

"What else do you want?" The black-clad person's tone was clearly irritated.

"Where do you store your supplies here? Are they all brought over in one go, or delivered periodically?" Gu Nanyan asked after taking a sip of soy milk.

The black-clad person became wary: "Why are you asking about that?"

"You don't have everything I need here. I can't find some items I want to buy."

The black-clad person frowned, thinking Gu Nanyan was being too demanding. "The items in the store are sufficient for your daily needs. This is a deserted island, don't expect too much."

"Do you have sanitary napkins?"

The black-clad person was at a loss for words.

Gu Nanyan looked at him and continued, "I need sanitary napkins. If you receive periodic supply shipments, could you order some? How do your stores communicate with each other? Can you call other stores to transfer goods?"

The black-clad person replied sternly, "Don't get your hopes up. The supplies here are fixed. We don't have sanitary napkins, and we won't in the future. You..."

He was about to say more when a cold voice suddenly came through his earpiece: "Shut up! You fool, she's trying to get information out of you."

The black-clad person was startled. He gave Gu Nanyan a suspicious look before turning to leave.

After he left, Gu Nanyan turned her back to the camera, her expression turning cold.

From the black-clad person's words, she had gleaned two pieces of information.

If they find Gu Nanyan, they'll have it made!

At this moment, Yang Tongtong spoke up, "Let's find Brother Chen Tian. There's strength in numbers. After our two teams join up, we can look for Sister Gu together."

"Tongtong is young, but she thinks things through," Teacher Qi praised.

And so, the matter was settled. The group decided to head in Chen Tian's direction.

Chen Tian's team had also decided to move towards Teacher Qi's group.

Seeing the choices made by the contestants, the online viewers began to argue.

[It's all hypocrisy. They all claim to be worried about Gu Nanyan, but not a single one of them is actually doing anything about it.]

[You can't say that. Their choice isn't wrong. It's normal to want to join forces first and then look for Gu Nanyan together. More people means more strength.]

[What's normal about it? If she were just an ordinary person, a fragile woman, she'd be dead by the time they finish joining up and start looking for her.]

[That's going too far. Gu Nanyan isn't looking for anyone either. She's living comfortably and hasn't considered the others at all.]

[How can you compare the two? They're in groups of several people, with weapons and tools. Of course, they'll be fine. But Gu Nanyan? She's all alone with nothing but a pack of embroidery needles.]

[Alright, alright, everyone stop arguing. In times of crisis, of course you have to take care of yourself first. Teacher Qi and the others haven't made a wrong choice. The island not only lacks resources, but there are also wild animals like wolves and tigers. They obviously want to join forces first. It's safer when everyone's together, and it's easier to come up with plans.]

A rational viewer tried to calm the situation.

The viewers stopped arguing in the comments, but each had their own thoughts.

Just then, a viewer suddenly posted a comment:

[Haven't you noticed? Actually, right at the beginning, before the cruise ship even set sail, Gu Nanyan sensed something was wrong and wanted to check it out. If Song Ze hadn't stopped her then, and if the others hadn't tried to smooth things over, wouldn't the situation be different? Maybe they wouldn't have ended up on this deserted island at all.]

[Right, right, right! I remember now. At that time, Gu Nanyan even warned everyone that the production team had changed, and there might be unexpected events, but unfortunately, no one believed her.]

[It's all Song Ze's fault. Gu Nanyan was right, he really is cannon fodder.]

[I hate Song Ze so much. He's dragging our Qinian down.]

Zhan Yiran also saw the viewers' debate and snorted, "It's their own fault for not listening to the elder sister-in-law. She warned them about unexpected events, but no one believed her. When choosing teams, they didn't want to be in her group either. These people deserve what they're getting!"

While the online debate raged on, there was a major discovery on Zhan Lingfeng's end.

His team had identified a plant species in Gu Nanyan's livestream from yesterday.

This plant had very strict growing conditions, only thriving at specific latitudes and under particular light conditions.

In other words, the range of possible latitudes for the deserted island had narrowed down significantly!
