"...It'll be soon. You two, back up a bit."
Fu Tailan acted like a traffic cop, gesturing for the other two to move back. Once they were against the wall, he gestured again by covering his own ears and said, "Find something to plug your ears with. If you two go deaf, you'll just become an inconvenience to me."
Since they couldn't hear him anyway, Fu Tailan muttered to himself, 'Who even writes by hand these days? My hand's a little sore from writing all that nonsense just now.'
The two understood his meaning and hurriedly looked for things to plug their ears. Hai Luwei was clearly very wary of him, shooting him sharp glances from time to time as he cut up a bandage and rolled it into a ball—it was a completely meaningless precaution.
'If he wanted to shoot them, would he be afraid of them watching?'
'They had already come this far. Cooperating to get out of here sooner was what would benefit everyone.'
