Mike gradually regained consciousness, he sat up from the bed, touched his drowsy head and asked the rain who had been guarding him, "Where are we?"

"This is a small wooden house near the border of the Islamic country. Sister J said that when you wake up, we can prepare things for the exit. Rain replied.

Mike looked around and saw Rain and Seth sleeping soundly on the sofa without a computer or mobile phone, so he asked again, "Where is Sister J?"

"She said to go and clear up the relationship first, so that it would be convenient for us to cross the border at night. Rain replied

Mike closed his eyes, his head still spinning slightly. Lately, he has been restarting and restarting like a console that often crashes, and it is as dizzying as if he is traveling through layers of dreams. He froze, thinking that Jessica must have pulled herself out of the vortex again. Somehow, the previous feeling of powerlessness came back like a raging wave. Obviously, there are still unknown difficulties and dangers ahead, but now he is still so weak, not only can he not protect others, but he always needs others to protect him! Thinking of this, Mike lay on the bed and let out a long sigh. At this time, Jessica returned with a bag of things.

"I bought some chocolates, compressed biscuits and canned food, and we had to cross a few mountains and then there was a big no-man's land to walk there, so we had to save some food and drink. Departure at half past two in the evening, you'd better have a good rest now, I don't want someone to drag everyone back in the next 'training'. Jessica instructed.

Rain thought to herself: Jessica looks like she is in her 20s, but she talks and acts like a well-fought Navy SEAL in a military magazine. How much devilish training and actual combat missions she had to go through to be so capable! And although he had studied many books on survival in the wilderness before, he had not even been able to complete the simple 'solar distillation method' (a method of collecting clean water in the wild) mentioned in the book for a long time.

"Rain, did you make that pit at the door? silly boy, when we're gone, the little water you've collected won't be enough to moisten your throat alone. And Mike, you've just been anesthetized, so you'd better come out and get some fresh air so that your body can recover faster. Jessica said.

"I'm feeling dizzy. Okay, I'll get out right away. With that, Mike got up and went out the door. Rain also went out to check his homemade 'still'.

"Mike, while it's just the two of us, I'll tell you about the situation. The killer who came to the door came before your brother arrived, so the possibility of tracking him is ruled out. And the rest is either that we are being followed, or that Seth knowingly or unintentionally divulges secrets. But the timing of his cigarette purchase is too coincidental, so he is very suspicious, and we must always be on guard against him and get the black box as soon as possible. I've confiscated all my communications equipment, so there's no danger at this time. There is another thing, that is, the old king's side has not been contacted for some reason. I thought I'd try to get in touch when we settled down near the first waterfall. Jessica whispered to Mike.

"Could it be that we can't get in touch because of the bad signal in the mountains?" Mike asked.

"I've always been in contact with the king with one-line encryption, and this has never happened before. But for now, I'll move you to a safe place and find out what the problem is. You move your muscles and then go back to the house to rest, or you won't be able to eat at night. Jessica said worriedly.

"Okay. Mike replied

In the middle of the night, everyone had just taken two steps out of the door with their bags on their backs, when they heard someone shouting from behind:

"Oops~ Which bastard is digging a big hole at the door?!"

Everyone looked back, only to see Seth smashing a big shape at the back

Jessica said with a smile: "I didn't expect the rain to dig a multi-purpose pit!"

The crowd burst into laughter.
