CHAPTER 1136: CHAPTER 1136: SPIN-OFF - THE WORLD OF LIVE STREAMING 105

Shen Mo remained silent.

"It was the maid at the villa who mentioned it. And we don’t necessarily have to go to 23 Gelard Avenue to find someone. Didn’t Ada say that Nick was injured? Maybe he’s still in the hospital. Couldn’t we just ask at the hospital reception?" Bai Youwei continued.

Everyone looked at each other and found the idea feasible.

Bai Youwei turned her head to Natasha, "So... is that settled?"

During the discussions, Natasha was united with them against the common enemy, but now, facing Bai Youwei’s gaze, she couldn’t help but hesitate again.

"You guys, really want to quit the team?" Natasha asked softly.

"Yeah." Bai Youwei said indifferently, "We have no choice but to quit, otherwise, those people will never let us be."

Natasha was silent and, after a long while, she nodded slightly, "Fine."

...

Leaving the ward, Ada felt a sense of unreality as if he were in a dream.

He reached into his pocket and found that the cigarette pack was crumpled; there was only one cigarette left. After thinking for a moment, he stopped, walked to the vending machine at the corner, and used points to buy cigarettes.

"Want one?" He asked Shen Mo.

Shen Mo shook his head.

Ada only bought one pack and then casually bought three bottles of water, one for each person.

When pulling up the personal panel, the spot for the team name was empty, with a small line of grey text underneath:

[Currently no team]

Ada touched his forehead and straightened his ponytail, feeling quite surreal.

"So we’ve just quit the team?" he muttered, "Why do I feel that something’s not quite right with this decision?"

Bai Youwei stood next to Shen Mo, silently drinking water, without making a sound.

Ada continued to grumble, "Why did we just quit? Just like that, handing over our record? Even if we don’t have the strategy, the three of us could clearly finish the dungeon."

Bai Youwei looked at him and asked, "How will you finish it?"

Ada: "Just grind slowly. It’s easier than finding a new team, right? Now going to find Nick, he might not agree to let us join. Even if he agrees, it’s not certain whether we can set a new record. And even if he agrees and we do set a new record, who says Nick won’t play tricks behind our backs and kick us out of the team at the last moment?"

"Staying in our current team, can you guarantee that after the dungeon is cleared, Natasha won’t kick us out?" Bai Youwei said evenly.

Ada fell silent.

After a while, his gaze slowly fell on the cigarette between his fingers, with pale white smoke curling around it, slightly stinging his eyes.

He never thought he’d find himself in such an awkward situation.

After switching teams so many times, this was the most harmonious and the most congenial one. He always thought that his frequent team changes would give him more experience with dungeons and team structure than others. However, he did not expect that this would become a reason for suspicion.

Shen Mo said, "Ultimately, Natasha doesn’t trust you. Continuing to stay isn’t good for anyone. It’s better to give up our spots so we can act without restraint."

"Alright..." Ada let out a wry smile and looked down to take a puff on his cigarette.

Bai Youwei added, "You don’t have to blame Natasha. She’s injured now and all she can think about is avenging Yuri. Being suspicious is normal. Anyone trying to take a spot is a target of her suspicion. Now, by leaving cleanly, she might actually trust us."

"I understand the logic." Ada exhaled a puff of smoke and sighed softly, "I’m just worried that if we go to a new team, we’ll still end up enriching someone else. That Nick..."

He paused for a moment, then looked up at Bai Youwei and Shen Mo, "He is not a nice guy."

"How coincidental," Bai Youwei said with a slight smile, "I’m not a nice person either."
