"The Save Lu Yi Plan class is in session! Thanks to the generous support of Evil God Mr. Xu, we now have a key to enter Paradise World;

"Furthermore, Evil God provides us with round-trip tickets, solving our after-sales issues. After saving Lu Yi, we can use the key to bring him back to the real world, so he doesn't have to keep running from the Upper Class People's pursuit in Paradise World;

"Now we must prepare thoroughly and first formulate a foolproof plan to save Lu Yi."

It's been a few days since leaving the Match Three instance, and Fatty somehow found a small blackboard and set it up in Gu Mian's living room. He even broke a branch from the roadside greenery to use as a pointer, tapping on the blackboard.

Gu Mian sat on a small stool in front of the blackboard, looking up at Fatty, feeling he had quite the demeanor of a teacher from back in the day.

Sitting on the small stool to Gu Mian's right was Chu Changge, who actually had no interest in Fatty's planning class and was forcibly pressed onto the stool by Fatty.

To the left sat 007, and she was much more focused than Chu Changge on the right; her eyes were fixed on the small blackboard. 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞

A row of people sat behind them, including Xiao Qiao with her mouth full of food, the drowsy Fortune-teller, and the passionately attentive Mr. Green.

Nobody expected Mr. Green to be so enthusiastic about learning, staring intently at Fatty's blackboard, probably eager to return to the game world.

"First, we need to confirm the list. I previously asked Miss Keke and Miss Liu Ruyan, and they both said they don't plan to go to Paradise World. Now, the confirmed people going are the doctor, Brother Chu, and me."

Fatty said as he wrote names on the blackboard. After writing Gu Mian's and Chu Changge's names, he added a big "me" afterwards.

After finishing, Fatty turned to the others: "Anyone else want to go?"

"Me, me, me!" Mr. Green in the back row shouted impatiently, looking truly eager.

Fatty casually wrote "Xiao Lv" on the blackboard, then 007 raised her hand: "I'll go too."

Fatty neatly added the three numbers of 007 on the blackboard.

Xiao Qiao saw this and quickly jumped in to join the excitement, tossing her food aside and raising her hand to sign up.

Gu Mian swiftly pressed her hand down as soon as she raised it.

It's unimaginable what kind of spectacle Xiao Qiao would display in Paradise World, likely punching and kicking Upper Class People in broad daylight, only to be besieged.

At that point, besides saving Lu Yi, they'd also need to rescue besieged Xiao Qiao.

For Xiao Qiao's personal safety and his own mental health, Gu Mian thought it best not to let her sign up.

"I'm not going," Fortune-teller yawned, "that world looks dangerous in every way, better not wade into this muddy water."

She also had foreseen it, and the result showed it was better not to go.

"Alright," Fatty knocked on the blackboard with the branch, "the list is set to have the doctor, Brother Chu, me, Miss 007, and Mr. Green, the five of us going into Paradise World."

"Next is the start time for that Paradise show; yesterday Miss Fortune-Teller helped us call the dock again, and the dock people said the stage setup would take at least a month, and the show's preparation would take half a month, so it means the show will start in a month and a half;

"So we don't need to go too early. Just have Miss Fortune-Teller inquire about the situation periodically, and head to Paradise World a few days before the show's start."

Hearing this, Gu Mian looked back at the Fortune-teller: "Is it still Old Xu picking up the calls?"

The Fortune-teller was yawning repeatedly, and Gu Mian suddenly turning back startled her, swallowing her incomplete yawn. She recollected for two seconds: "Yes, by the voice, still him, why?"

"Nothing." Gu Mian said nothing more and turned back.

The Fortune-teller stared at the back of Gu Mian's head, feeling a bit puzzled, but soon the fatigue rolled in again, and she miserably pinched her dizzy head.

"The trickiest part now is that after entering Paradise World, people will be separated, and each person's location is uncertain." On the right, Chu Changge suddenly interrupted, "However, we have this special item 'Ten-member Group Chat,' where we can report our locations."

The [Ten-member Group Chat] is Xiao Qiao's special item; once entering the game world, the friend chat system stops working, but Xiao Qiao's group chat remains unaffected.

As long as the holder is alive, the group members can chat at any time.

007 has long been added to this group chat.

"Even if we know everyone's location, if the distance from Gu Mian is too great, it'll be hard to meet up," 007 raised concerns, "for instance, if from the South Pole to the North Pole distance..."

"That's too absurd!" Fatty's face twitched upon hearing South Pole and North Pole, unable to fathom how they would meet up over such a distance.

"It's indeed possible, so fewer people going into Paradise World is better; the fewer people, the smaller the dispersal area." Gu Mian said, standing up next to the blackboard, then erasing the "me" after Chu Changge's name.

Fatty watched as "me" was erased, just about to speak to salvage his position when Gu Mian clapped away the chalk dust and continued: "People like you, large-bodied with slow actions, are particularly unsuitable for long-distance migrations in harsh environments."

Fatty's throat choked, unable to produce a rebuttal for quite a while.

Ultimately, they decided to let only Gu Mian, Chu Changge, and 007 enter Paradise World. 007 possessed a child's rocking car as a transport tool, which she could drive to pick up Chu Changge and then meet up with Gu Mian.

As for Mr. Green, he didn't count as a person, so once in Paradise World, they wouldn't have to worry about him.

007's rocking car was of excellent quality and considerable speed. Even with the South Pole to North Pole distance, it wouldn't be a problem as long as there's money.

Fatty and Chu Changge prepared in advance by transferring most of their Game Coins to 007, to prevent 007 from being penniless in Paradise World.

Gu Mian even specially borrowed Big Data Search from Xiao Qiao and gave it to 007 to search for their locations when needed.

"The show won't start for over a month; you're starting preparations so early?" Gu Mian went to borrow Big Data Search from Xiao Qiao, and Liu Ruyan was also in the room as she lived with Xiao Qiao.

"Xie Bi'an from the fourth floor is originally from Paradise World; he must know it well. If you want to know anything, you can ask him, though his relationship with Chu Changge isn't great, so you'd better not bring Chu Changge often to him." Liu Ruyan said, not minding the situation escalating.

Gu Mian knew Xie Bi'an and Chu Changge have always been at odds. Recently, Gu Mian wanted to approach Xie Bi'an about Paradise World matters, but Chu Changge immediately said, "Don't trust Xie Bi'an."

After the Match Three instance ended, Xie Bi'an even came to Gu Mian's house and said in front of Chu Changge that he wasn't any good.

When he said that, his tone carried deep resentment, and Gu Mian had automatically visualized a dramatic scenario of a jerk and a lovesick girl.

Who knows what grudges they actually have; certainly, it needs a good examination sometime.

Gu Mian pondered this while heading to 007's room with Big Data Search.

Passing the apartment gate, Gu Mian saw a cloaked figure walking off into the distance, disappearing in the blink of an eye.

It was Xie Bi'an.

No one else would wear such a bizarre outfit.

Where was he going?
