This seemed to be the first time Mr. Su Bai had witnessed so many veterans gathering together in the real world at once. Counting the two Westerners and the seven local seniors from Yunnan, as well as himself and Monk, there were already eleven Senior Listeners present. That was comparable only to the time at the train station when a grand assembly of nearly a hundred veterans had managed to outdo this current gathering.
By now, there was no point in being pretentious. What Mr. Su Bai hadn't expected, however, was that this time indeed, eleven veterans were acting together. It seemed they all believed that the cake was big enough and worth sharing among eleven people.
Or perhaps, there was another reason—that they felt the danger inside was significant enough to warrant eleven of them sharing the burden.
A Yunnan listener walked to the front of a mound, spread his hands, and slowly squatted down, firmly placing his palms on the ground.
