Chapter 144 - Chapter 144 - Back to square one

"Haopeng, are you sure we'll win if we keep running like this?"

The other CP pair, soldier Noel and his wife, were in the same house as the other three CPs at this time.

They had been running on the treadmill, maintaining a pace that barely changed.

"Yes, we will change food when we are hungry, take a break when we are full and then continue running, we must take first place."

"Can you really go home with enough points saved up for 1000?" Noel's wife continued to talk while running.

"Yes, we have to believe in that and try to save up points!" Noel replied to Noel's wife.

"I'm so worried about Lele... he's only three years old! I don't know what terrible things will happen to him if we just disappear like this." Noel's wife's eyes were a little red.

"You talk to your mom and dad on the phone every day, and if they didn't talk on the phone that day, they would have come over to check on the situation and would have picked up Lele." Noel opened his mouth after a moment of silence.

"But, I sometimes talk to my family on the phone only once every two or three days. And, even if they don't get my call, they don't necessarily think something has happened to me." Noel's wife shook her head.

"Yes, they will pick up Lele." Noel didn't know what else to say.

"There are sockets all over the house, and hot water bottles, and medicine that I keep on the table, and Lele is very naughty, and he can do anything without me watching him. In case my mom and dad don't notice that the situation is unusual, he's going to be hungry all the time, it's horrible!" Noel's wife said and cried.

"What's the use of crying? The most important thing is to try to save points to get back!" Noel yelled at Noel's wife.

"It's all your fault! Usually I sleep with Lele, but you let me sleep with you that day, and then something like this happened! It's all your fault!" Noel's wife continued to cry.

"Does it help to blame me like this? Can I go back by blaming me like this? Why don't you think about doing the right thing now? Is always regretting what happened in the past going to solve the problem?" Noel turned up the volume.

"All you do is yell at me! Is yelling at me going to solve the problem?"

"You ..."

"What's wrong with me?"

"All right! Stop arguing! Keep running! If you want to see Lele sooner, if you want to be reunited as a family sooner, there is no other way, but to run!"

...

A few hours later.

Mallory woke up.

After waking up, he realized that something was not right.

He soon reacted.

It was his thigh.

The bite wound on it.

Surprisingly ...

It's healed!

There was no inflammation, no ulceration, the muscles and skin had all grown together, and only the black stitches were still on it.

"You're awake?" Liuyin, who was lying on the side of the bed, was also awakened.

"Well, help me find a pair of scissors." Mallory spoke up to Liuyin.

Liu Yin found Mallory examining the wound on her thigh and turned her head away in a hurry.

It wasn't that she was afraid of seeing something she shouldn't, but she was afraid of seeing the gruesome state of the wound.

Liuyin found the scissors and walked over and handed them to Mallory sideways.

"It's not that terrible, the wound has already healed." Mallory said to Liuyin, and then began to cut the top stitching, cut and then pulled out of the muscle one by one, causing him to grin in pain.

"Healed? No way." Liuyin thought Mallory was joking.

"It's true, this place is strange, probably related to the setting of the movie scene. You can heal an injury this bad by sleeping." Mallory continued to pull at those black threads.

Liu Yin twisted her head and saw Mallory pulling the black threads from his muscles, watching her legs hurt, and hurriedly turned around again.

This man is really ironclad! Not afraid of any pain.

He's a match for her father.

While removing the stitches, Mallory glanced at the wall.

She found a problem.

The 30-day countdown had changed again.

It was still at a standstill, but the reduced 40 minutes had been added back in.

It became 30 full days again.

Everything was back to square one.

What does this mean?

Is it related to his sleep?

And what did the 40 minutes reduction have to do with?

After the stitches were removed, Mallory immediately went back to the treadmill room and ran on the treadmill.

While paying attention to the numbers behind him, Mallory also kept an eye on the 30-day countdown from time to time.

It was important to understand what this 30-day countdown change was related to.

The 60-day countdown has been continuously decreasing at an even rate, while the 30-day countdown is pulsating irregularly.

It seems that the 60-day countdown has nothing to do with the jailbreak, but the 30-day countdown is likely to be directly related to the success of the jailbreak.

The 30-day countdown looks very difficult, not only will it jump positively, it will also jump backwards and the numbers jump back.

It is very likely that the end of the 30-day countdown will only mean a successful jailbreak.

"Aren't you in pain?" Liuyin asked Mallory as she followed him over.

"The wound has healed, and it still hurts?" Mallory was a little surprised why Willowin asked that.

"Removing the stitches pulled out so much blood, so many wounds." Liuyin felt painful even thinking about it.

"That can be considered a wound?" Mallory skimmed his lips.

"You're really not an ordinary person." Liu Yin sighed and also got on the treadmill and ran along.

If she didn't run, wouldn't she have to rely on Mallory for her meals?

Half an hour passed.

An hour had passed.

Liuyin was panting and sat down to rest.

Mallory was still running.

Mallory can now confirm that the 30-day countdown has nothing to do with his running.

Running will only increase the number after the word 'male', but cannot reduce the time of the 30-day countdown.

Two hours later, Mallory stopped.

The two men had earned a total of 1500 time index, which translates to $15.

It's time to get something good to eat.

"What do you want to eat?" Mallory clicked on the menu on the refrigerator door and asked Liuyin beside him.

"Whatever." Liuyin herself only contributed a small part of the time index, embarrassed to order food.

Besides, 15 dollars couldn't order anything.

Mallory bought a bag of salt, four chicken wing roots, and a can of beer.

After cooking the chicken wing roots in salted water, Mallory gave two to Liu Yin and then ate them himself while drinking the beer.

Wow! What a fast life like a god.

"You eat more, it's all run out of you." Liuyin only ate one and put the other one on Mallory's plate.

"Don't say that, didn't I have an extra can of beer?" Mallory gave it back to Liuyin.

"I can't eat it." Willowin gave it back to Mallory.

"Don't push it around, I just ate a lot of pastry, and you didn't eat it." Mallory gave it back to Liuyin.

There was no choice, Liuyin had to eat it.

"Oh no!" While eating chicken wing root and drinking beer, Mallory suddenly remembered something and got up in a hurry and rushed to the living room.

"What's happening?" Liu Yin was startled and also hurriedly followed.
