The news of their food shortage didn't take long to reach Red's ears as he ate his share for breakfast. Due to additional burdens, or rather, mouths to feed, the group suddenly depleted their food resources. What was expected to last two or three days didn't even last until the next day's lunch. Of course, it came as a shock to everyone and the new members of the group felt embarrassed because of it. But little did they know was that it was all according to Red and Blond's calculation.
After all, the estimated time when they'll completely run out of food was the best-case scenario. And in Runners Survivors, best-case scenarios almost always never happen.
