In the evening, everyone cooked some hot soup, and after watching the stars for a while while wrapped in blankets, the group went into their tents to sleep.

In the dead of night, the call of a cuckoo echoed through the mountains, and soon after, several furtive figures huddled together.

Yu Laoliu was a villager from the area who did nothing but laze around. Zishan Resort bought the mountain in their village for development, and he heard that there were many rich people here. So he found a few people from the village who were like him and always did petty theft to come and scout the area, hoping to steal some money.

Because the mountain was quite large, they found a secluded path to climb up. During the day, they sent one person to scout the area, and then planned to steal the items at night after everyone had fallen asleep.

Two o'clock in the morning is when everyone is sleeping the most soundly. The call of the cuckoo is their code, and the group of people sneaked to the vicinity of the campsite in the dark.

Yu Laoliu: "Hurry up later, open the tent, take whatever you have, and if you don't have anything, leave quickly so as not to wake anyone up."

Wang Laosan: "Okay, stop dawdling and get started."

Old Zhao: "Don't worry, it's not like this is the first time I've done something like this. I've even gone into locked security doors before, how could I not handle a tent?"

Wang Laosan was even more impatient than Yu Laoliu. He was itching to buy anything that these rich people owned, even just a random item, for a lot of money.

There were three people in the campsite, and there were exactly nine tents. They took the knives and started cutting open the tents.

No one dared to turn on the lights. They could only pry open the tent and look inside by the moonlight to see what they could take. Yu Laoliu was very cautious. He carefully checked the location of his backpack and phone, then immediately pulled out the two items and moved on to the next one.

Old Zhao's speed was about the same as Yu Laoliu's, but Wang Laosan, when he stole Chen Zhe and Bai Yue's tent, found that there were quite a few good things inside.

Especially Bai Yue, the large diamond ring on her hand shone brightly in the moonlight.

Wang Laosan got excited immediately. If he could get his hands on it and sell it, he might be able to get hundreds of thousands of yuan.

Wang Laosan crawled into the tent and then carefully took Bai Yue's hand, which was resting on Chen Zhe's arm, and tried to pull off the ring.

Bai Yue was fast asleep when she suddenly felt an itch on her hand. She thought Chen Zhe was touching her and tried to break free, but her hand was picked up again. The force on her fingers hurt her a little, and Bai Yue suddenly felt that something was wrong.

She slowly opened her eyes, and moonlight shone through the opening in the tent. Wang Laosan's ugly, emaciated face covered in wrinkles appeared before her. Bai Yue thought she had seen a ghost and screamed in fright.

Chen Zhe was startled awake and was stunned when he saw a third person in the tent. It was the first time he had experienced something like this, and he didn't even have time to react.

The others were also awakened by Bai Yue's screams. At this time, Yu Laoliu and Lao Zhao were in Su Qing and Zhuo Jing's tents respectively, so for a while, screams from both men and women were heard one after another.

Yu Laoliu and his group were discovered and immediately fled from the tent. Wang Laosan refused to give up. In his eyes, the ring on Bai Yue's hand was a big gold ingot. He would never be satisfied until he took it away.

So Wang Laosan retreated out of the tent while tightly grabbing Bai Yue's hand. Bai Yue was both excited and scared, and her hand was clenched into a fist. In this way, Bai Yue was dragged out of the tent.

The lights outside came on, and everyone woke up. When they came out of the tent, they saw Wang Laosan holding Bai Yue hostage.

Song Yi and Zhou Ya were relatively lucky; they were the only ones whose tents, along with the staff's, hadn't been visited yet.

The lead investigator immediately called the police. Chen Zhe, realizing what was happening, scrambled out of the tent, yelling, "What are you doing? Let go of my girlfriend!"

Bai Yue screamed and cried in fright. Wang Laosan hadn't intended to make things this big. He looked in other directions and saw that Yu Laoliu and Lao Zhao seemed to have already run away.

He spat on the ground. Those two cowards didn't even wait for him. Since that's the case, then this diamond ring is his now.

Wang Laosan looked at the men and women in front of him. They all looked weak and frail, so they probably weren't very strong. Since that was the case, he might as well go all the way. Anyway, there were no surveillance cameras here, and these people weren't as familiar with the mountains as he was. Once he got the things and disappeared into the grove, these people wouldn't be able to do anything to him.

Thinking of this, Wang Laosan grabbed Bai Yue and held the knife he used to pry open the tent to her neck, threatening Chen Zhe, who had just slept with Bai Yue:

"If you want me to release your girlfriend, stuff all your valuables into this bag."

Wang Laosan kicked a bag from beside him towards Chen Zhe, who nervously said:

"Okay, I'll do as you say, just don't hurt her."

Chen Zhe immediately took off his watch, phone, and necklace and put them in his bag. He then tried to give them to Wang Laosan, but Wang Laosan, seeing this, ordered Chen Zhe:

"And theirs too, theirs too."

So Chen Zhe took his backpack and walked up to the others. The other players thought it was better to avoid trouble, so they didn't resist, since they weren't short of money anyway.

Su Qing and Mu Qi's bags and phones had already been taken, and they didn't have many valuables on them.

Mu Qi was wearing a bracelet, a birthday gift from her father. It wasn't worth much money, but it was very meaningful, so Mu Qi didn't take it off.

Wang Laosan, with his sharp eyes, noticed it and shouted a rebuke as Chen Zhe passed Mu Qi:

“Stand there, you woman, take off your bracelet.”

Mu Qi was reluctant. Sun Siwei glanced at it and saw that it wasn't anything valuable; it was probably just a silver chain.

"Give it to him, I'll get you something better later."

Mu Qi's eyes dimmed upon hearing this, and she felt inexplicably angry.

Mu Qi's favorability towards Sun Siwei has decreased to 24%.

Sun Siwei froze when he heard this. "No, is it really necessary? He was just trying to do what's best for everyone."

Are you suggesting he subdue that thug? Please, he's holding a knife, and the person he's holding hostage isn't Mu Qi. If it were Mu Qi, he might risk it for the sake of goodwill, but putting himself in danger for someone unrelated is simply not worth it.

In the end, Muqi took off the bracelet and put it in her bag.

Chen Zhe walked over to Zhou Ya, who reluctantly cooperated. Chen Zhe breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Zhou Ya wasn't making things difficult for him, thinking that he could successfully finish rescuing his girlfriend, but he realized he had miscalculated.

Song Yi was completely uncooperative.

Chen Zhe stood in front of Song Yi for a few seconds, holding the bag, and when he saw that Song Yi still didn't move, he said nervously:

"Hurry up and put the things in."

Song Yi's eyes lit up; he loved this kind of excitement.
