Ji You clenched her fists as the Bee Queen approached her, Chu Jiaojiao, and Liu Fufeng. She found the distance to the Bee Queen insufficiently close; closer, a little closer...
Ji You stayed silent while Chu Jiaojiao felt the sudden stiffness in Ji You's muscles against her shoulder. She, too, held her breath and grasped the bomb in her palm tightly alongside Ji You.
Closer.
A little closer.

The two simultaneously murmured in their hearts.
The Bee Queen's pair of scarlet compound eyes locked onto them intensely. It seemed to lose interest in toying with Ji You and her companions, leapt with a flap, and charged toward Liu Fufeng's head—
Apparently, it considered Liu Fufeng a greater threat, intending to eliminate this 'insect' first.
At this moment, Liu Fufeng regained consciousness and, upon opening his eyes, saw the enlarged Bee Queen in front of him, screamed in fright, and clung to Ji You's elbow: "Help!!!"
