Astral Flower-Chapter 439: The Shadow

"You’re back." Qing Shu Lian nodded at the others.

"Well, I’m tired." Feng Yu Hua laid down not far from Qing Shu Lian. She has already cooled down by walking to this place, so it’s time for her to rest.

"Hey, don’t sleep."

"I’m not sleeping. I’m only resting."

Qing Shu Lian shook his head and turned to look at Qian Fei Liu. "Did you also find the route by yourselves?"

"Yeah." Qian Fei Liu passed a look at Qing Shu Lian strangely. "Isn’t it easy to memorize the route?"

Qing Shu Lian was silent.

Sorry, in terms of memorizing the route, he was not very good. It would be better to ask him to memorize all parts of a mecha and he was sure that he would be able to get the full score.

"It’s not easy at all!" Feng Yu Hua protested.

She has no talent to memorize route. Even though it was still possible under forceful method, but Feng Yu Hua’s result in this was not very good.

She was better at memorizing things related to the virtual world and hacking. If she was asked to hack someone’s light brain, she would definitely guarantee the job well done!

Of course, just don’t ask her to hack an important person’s light brain.

It would be an impossible task.

"Your brain is too good." Tian Lin looked at Qian Fei Liu speechlessly. He felt that when he was being despised so far by Qian Fei Liu, it was not because he was too bad but because Qian Fei Liu was too good. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦

Qian Fei Liu glared at Tian Lin. "If you continue this way, you wouldn’t know how you will end up being schemed in the future!"

"I don’t listen, I don’t listen."

"Heh."

Feng Yu Hua tilted her head and saw Tian Lin running away while Qian Fei Liu glared in his direction. Because Qian Fei Liu was too tired after all that running, he had no strength to chase after Tian Lin.

She blinked her eyes. "I don’t understand how these two become friends in the first place."

"They’re neighbor," Qing Shu Lian replied in a low voice.

"...Still strange."

Qing Shu Lian chuckled.

Well, he had seen much more than Feng Yu Hua. These two really couldn’t stay silent at all and would always have so much trouble going on. But the two of them were still good friends in the end.

Feng Yu Hua sighed and saw Nan Hua sat not far from her. She laughed. "I honestly thought about going forward until the very end."

If not for Nan Hua suddenly spoke to her about the field’s truth, Feng Yu Hua didn’t plan to stop at all. She felt that she had to finish the track to the completion and it was impossible for her to stop.

"Um." Nan Hua nodded.

To be honest, Nan Hua herself had the same thought at the beginning.

Because for a moment, the two of them felt as if they had returned to the training in that horrible camp. In that place, they had to finish all kind of hellish training day by day. Be it rain or sunshine, they had to finish their training quota or they would not be able to rest.

No matter whether they were healthy or sick, they had to finish the training.

There was no so called compassion at all.

Those who couldn’t finish the training would either end up being transferred away to a different training base or end up as a corpse.

Children who died in their sleep due to over exhaustion was uncountable.

At that time, the children around Nan Hua were also worried that their body couldn’t withstand the torture and died first when they were sleeping.

But there was nothing that they could do.

They could only force themselves to eat as much food as possible to replenish their strength and then finish their task for the day. Even if they felt nausea and wanted to vomit, they had to stop their urge.

Because they knew that there wouldn’t be anyone who gave them more food.

Growing up in that hellish place and then thrown to the forest to fend for themselves and once survived, they would be sent to another hellish training place, it was just a never ending hell.

When they thought that everything would end, it would give them a different kind of hell.

Repeated hope, torture, despair, always accompanied them.

Feng Yu Hua’s training was different from Nan Hua because she had to spent more than 6 hours in front of a screen and finished all the task related to it. The faster they could do it, the more time they would have to rest.

And for them all, to be able to rest has become the greatest gift.

So they worked hard.

For them, any task has to be done to the completion because only in that way they would be allowed to rest.

And that was what Feng Yu Hua thought for a moment.

Before realizing that she was no longer in that training camp.

"Huh... I’m tired," Feng Yu Hua muttered.

Living with the Feng Family, she was under the illusion that she had gotten away from the organization. At the very least, the high degree of freedom given to her at this time made her feel very comfortable.

The watchers were still there.

But Feng Yu Hua was not bothered by them at all.

She had long gotten used to live under supervision.

But the training today made her realize that even if she thought she had gotten used to it, the shadow would still accompany her.

It was frustrating.

"Once you have finished resting, you can go to the cafeteria to eat. The first day’s training is done here," the instructor announced when most students have already arrived on the Area B field.

Only a few people were still challenging themselves on the track.

For these people, there would be supervisor watching and sent them back when they were done.
