Chapter 1232 "No."
Still a one-worded reply.
Charmine frowned. Was he angry? Why was he so cold to her?
It was as if he was another person.
Charmine wanted to speak more, but he gave off such an unapproachable aura as he carried her like a robot.
No matter what she said, he would give simple responses.
"Mmh." "Yeah." "Oh."
There was no point in talking to him, so she gave up.
The path was twisted and uneven.
Nial cleared the path on his own. Anthony carried Charmine while Guy helped Yvonne and Grandma Granger.
They walked for an hour before they spotted the bamboo forest hidden in mist.
Nial almost teared up.
Ugh, finally! His hands were breaking! 2 Nial walked toward the area, but Charmine, still on Anthony's back, sensed something was wrong.
She detected it right away and quickly called out, "Stop!" "Hmm?"
Nial looked back. "What's wrong?"
Everyone looked at her in confusion.
Charmine got off his back and took out a special pair of sunglasses to put them on.
Infrared lasers appeared in the originally cleared path.
Charmine explained, "There are infrared lights. If we touch them, we'll be dead."
Drats!
Nial instantly backed away a few steps, and Guy supported Grandma Granger to step back as well.
Annoyed, Yvonne whined, "What now? We came all the way here, and we can't back out now, right?"
Charmine curled up her red lips stunningly. She said with wild confidence," I can try."
Anthony frowned. He did not want her to, but he recalled something.
He could only narrow his eyes and say calmly, "Be careful." "Okay."
Charmine took down her backpack and handed it to Anthony, to which he robotically accepted.
Charmine put on her sunglasses and looked at the tightly packed infrared lasers. She bent down ready to go ahead.
The first gap between the lights was bigger than the rest, thus she went through it easily.
However, the gaps started to get narrower after that.
Charmine stretched out her long leg and went through the second gap. She bent over to get through.
She stood back up and there was another one right beside her waist.
She held on her breath and dared not to move.
On the third line of the lasers, one was around her waist while another was next to her knee. There were three to four lines on top of her head, thus there was no way she could go above them.
She could only carefully tilt her body to move downward.
When she got away from the one around her waist, she had more space below.
After avoiding the one by her knees, she went to the ground and crawled forward to the middle.
The lines grew much narrower, so much so that even her arms could touch them if she went over.
Charmine frowned. She looked at the closing-in gaps and the nearest laser closest to her.
She bent down and slowly went through the ten-centimeter gap. 1 Since it was only ten centimeters, there was no room to move around. Her upper body went through first, and she then put her palms on the ground as her legs slowly went over the lasers.
"Ms. Jordan..." muttered Guy in concern as he watched on.
Unable to see the lasers, they could only see her moving cautiously.
