Since the girls had already gathered enough resources from the canteen, their breakfast could be said to be quite rich. They ate the bread they took from the canteen first, though as it was more likely to go stale after a few days.
"There are other students." Amelia was eating when she saw someone walking in the distance and frowned.
"Don’t worry, they’re not heading in our direction." Riya glanced up and determined the student’s direction after a moment.
"How do you know?"
"Because he’s only looking in our direction when he’s looking around, which meant that he’s trying to find out if there’s anyone nearby who want to follow him," Riya explained calmly.
She had experienced this kind of scene many times during the time she was in that world.
When there were people who passed by, Riya would pay attention to their body language to determine their direction. Because she had to be careful to make sure no one would follow her and try to steal her belongings.
Even if she was quite poor in the beginning, what she has could be said to be her treasure. She couldn’t possibly let others take it from her.
"Your observation is quite keen." Amelia munched on the bread as she watched the student walked by. From the direction he was going, it seemed that he wanted to pay a visit to the canteen and tried his luck.
It seemed that there were many other students who could think about gathering resources.
Riya saw this and nodded.
She purposely didn’t take the resources in the canteen last night and instead targeted the malls and various stores for this reason. There were still students nearby and she didn’t want to cut off their way of survival.
Gathering resources were important but she didn’t want to be the only person who survived in the world either.
It would be very lonely.
"Our destination will be your home, Amelia."
"Ah?" Amelia blinked her eyes and then asked, "Do you really think it’s a good idea to go to my place?"
"Your brother is strong," Riya said.
Amelia thought about it and nodded. She didn’t know how strong Samuel is, but she guessed that he should be very very strong. Because she had been beaten up and there were also some others who came and then got beaten up by her brother.
When Amelia thought about her brother’s force value, she shivered.
It didn’t seem to be a good idea to offend him.
But when she thought about how much her brother asked her to train, Amelia was itching to give her brother a good beating.
"Do you want to go back to your place or follow me, Ruby?" Amelia thought of something and turned to look at Ruby.
Ruby raised her head and said, "I’ll follow you."
She didn’t like her family members and Ruby knew that if she were to follow them, nothing good would come to her. Rather than causing herself to suffer, it would be better for her to follow Amelia and stayed in her place.
"I can also work for you or help you with something," Ruby added. "My physical strength is not good, but I can help you to do some research if you want to."
Amelia: "…"
Which eyes of you see that I want to do research?
But thinking that her brother might be interested in this, Amelia could only nod helplessly. "I’ll talk to my brother about that."
"Great."
"Now that it’s settled, let’s go inside and prepare to go," Riya reminded.
