In an instant, the faces of Lu Zhe and Shen Bing both turned pale.
"Today is Monday..."
"Yao Yao will be upset and sad!"
"Upset and sad? Just think about us being caught in this state, we'll have psychological scars for life!"
"What should we do?"
What should they do?
Still, what could they do?
This was Lu Zhe's first time experiencing such a situation, and he had no experience at all.
But he understood that no matter how close their relationship with the girls was, they absolutely could not let them see this scene.
Voices of young girls came from outside the cave:
"Hey, there's a warm air flow coming out!"
"Yeah, it's a bit like a hot spring."
"There's a hot spring here too? That's much closer than the one by the volcano..."
"Let's go check it out!"
Seeing that the girls were about to come in, Lu Zhe didn't have time to think. With one arm around Bing, and the other arm holding their bundle of clothes, he quickly ran deeper into the cave!
"Hurry..." Lu Zhe whispered.
"Yeah!" Shen Bing nodded.
The two quickly put their clothes on. Fortunately, the clothes weren't too difficult to wear. Within 40 seconds, they were both fully dressed.
At that moment, Ning Shu walked in and was pleasantly surprised to see them.
"Lu Zhe, Bing Sis?"
"Oh, you're here?"
"Great, I found you right away!"
"How lucky!"
Shen Bing smoothed her tousled hair: "Hey Ning, Qianqian, Yao Yao, and Xiaoguo, why did you all come here?"
"We came to find you!"
Lu Zhe gently and warmly rebuked them: "Didn't I tell you to stay at the camp? It's so dangerous to go out at this time."
Although they were rebuked, the four girls were somewhat touched. They could feel that Lu Zhe truly cared about them.
"We were just worried about you!" Jiang Yao walked over and gently took Lu Zhe's arm: "We were so worried, you know?"
Lu Zhe lightly kissed Jiang Yao's tender hand: "But it's quite timely that you showed up. We didn't know how to get back to the camp, and then we ran into you."
"Haha, this place isn't far from the camp at all."
Seeing Lu Zhe and Jiang Yao's loving interaction, Tang Xiaoguo pouted in frustration nearby.
Shen Bing secretly glanced at Lu Zhe, and when their eyes met, she smiled faintly.
Lu Zhe felt helpless. Surrounded by so many adorable girls, his heart was stirred by one after another. He didn't know when this would ever end!
At that moment, the perceptive Jiang Yao sensed something was amiss.
"Bing Sis, Lu Zhe, you two didn't do anything strange behind our backs, did you?"
Shen Bing smiled: "You little girls, don't let your minds wander!"
"Really?"
"Of course not!"
Then, Jiang Yao said: "Bing Sis, I remember you taught us how to tell if someone is lying before."
Shen Bing was taken aback: "Eh?"
The other three girls looked at each other.
Ning Shu said: "That thing, it's more tiring for boys than girls! Lu Zhe wouldn't sweat and breathe heavily when catching alligators, but he would only do that during that thing..." As she spoke, Ning Shu raised her head and said solemnly.
Shen Bing froze!
To be frank, Lu Zhe did look like he had engaged in some strenuous activity.
Jiang Yao added: "Second, both of them would appear shy and flushed! For some reason, you two do seem a bit flushed right now."
Shen Bing nervously touched her face: "Really...?"
Lin Qianqian said softly: "Although Bing Sis looks cute when flushed, this does seem a bit unusual."
"And the third point!"
Tang Xiaoguo stood up, her eyes shining with a Conan-like wisdom, giving everyone a new appreciation for her.
She remained silent for a while, building the tension until it was almost suffocating, then suddenly scratched her head: "What was the third one again?"
Everyone nearly fainted at the same time.
Jiang Yao added: "A girl's walking posture might change a bit!"
"I didn't notice that though. Why don't you walk a couple of steps, Bing Sis?"
"No way!" Shen Bing blushed: "I taught you how to read people, and you're using it on me!"
Ning Shu said: "That's called applying what you've learned, Bing Sis, don't mind!"
"Besides! It's not 100% accurate, didn't you get it wrong with Qianqian at first?"
"True..."
"Then your method isn't for reading people, it's for wronging people!"
At this point, Shen Bing could only laugh bitterly. She had no way to argue further, so she said: "Those methods are mostly for dealing with criminals! We're all good kids, of course they don't apply!"
"Oh... I see!"
"I thought... never mind!"
Shen Bing breathed a sigh of relief for narrowly escaping, but just as she was smiling secretly, Jiang Yao noticed something else!
"Hey, what's this?"
As she spoke, she picked up a heavy, long pouch.
Shen Bing's face instantly reddened.
That was her and Lu Zhe's creation.
Each time they used it, they would squeeze out the contents, trying to use it multiple times. But the last time, because they almost got caught, they had only tied the opening and forgotten to deal with it.
Seeing this, Shen Bing even wanted to snatch it away immediately.
However, before Shen Bing could act, Ning Shu had already grabbed the used item and was holding it awkwardly.
"Why did you... keep this thing?"
Jiang Yao said: "But you can't just throw it away! It's bad if it hits a child! Even if it doesn't hit a child, it's not good if it hits some flowers or plants!"
Tang Xiaoguo nodded: "Yeah, what if an ape picked it up? If Lu Zhe and Bing Sis didn't help you retrieve it, you'd be really embarrassed."
Ning Shu muttered "Yeah", clutching the used item with an apologetic and embarrassed look: "I'll... be more careful next time!"
As she spoke, she carefully put it away.
Shen Bing smiled bitterly. For some inexplicable reason, she had been wrongly blamed.
Although it was Lu Zhe's inside, there were traces of her body fluid on it too!
She glanced at Ning Shu and felt a twinge of guilt and helplessness.
Jiang Yao nodded, then pulled Lu Zhe aside: "Lu Zhe, to further prove your innocence, I've decided to provide you with the appropriate protection and proof."
Lu Zhe was a bit confused: "How does that prove it?"
Jiang Yao smiled and tiptoed to whisper in Lu Zhe's ear: "Time to do homework!"
Homework?
They hadn't slept much the night before, and they had already done several assignments. Why did Yao Yao want more?
If he were an ordinary man, he would probably have run out of energy already.
Fortunately, Lu Zhe was no ordinary person!
His strength, endurance, and recovery were more than ten times that of a normal person, so giving Yao Yao another lesson was definitely doable.
But of course, that wasn't possible right now. There were more important things to do.
"Now that everyone's here, there's a hot spring inside. We can wash up before leaving. Huh? There's a bear too?"
"The one from the camp?"
"Yeah..."
"Let me take it out and tie it up!"
With that, Lu Zhe led the sun bear out of the cave.
The sunlight was brighter than before, and Lu Zhe used a red rope to tie up the sun bear and left it by a large tree at the entrance.
Next, he could wash up with them again...
Thinking of this, Lu Zhe couldn't help but look forward to it.
