Chapter 289: Chapter 289: Remove The Stumbling Block

Translator: 549690339

A simple two and a half story townhouse was thoroughly searched.

In the end, only 23 nails were found.

This number, was far from sufficient.

Tan Xiao picked up two more from under the bed and dropped them into the nail dish, clinking softly.

He looked up at Li Li, patted his chest, seemingly indicating: see? Look carefully!

Li Li hadn’t found a single nail and didn’t want to deal with him.

Pan Xiaoxin, with a small backpack on his back, came down to the living room and took out a handful of nails from his bag!

At least forty or fifty by visual estimation. This number far exceeded the combined total of everyone else!

Everyone suddenly exclaimed: “Xiaoxin! Where did you find these nails?”

Pan Xiaoxin scratched his head and honestly said, “I couldn’t find any nails  Then I saw a toy train in the attic, so I dismantled the train ”

“Ah! That train!” Su Man recalled, “I took it when I was looking for shiny objects. It’s metallic and has so many nails on it!”

Pan Xiaoxin nodded, “It also has a metal track, with two nails on each rail.”

Everyone had a sudden burst of inspiration!

“If this is the case, every metal toy in the house can be dismantled!”

“The nails holding up the paintings on the wall can also be removed!”

“All things with nails can be taken apart! This game is very tricky, I wouldn’t have thought of removing nails if it wasn’t for the child ”

There were all kinds of screwdrivers in the tool box in the storage room. Everyone picked up a few and started to dismantle the nails.

This way, their reach was greatly extended.

Of course, not all nails could be undone. Some couldn’t be unscrewed no matter what, especially ones related to the structure of the house or furniture.

Everyone gradually summarized the experience, “Structural” nails couldn’t be dismantled, but “movable” and “decorative” nails could be taken apart.

The entire house echoed with a symphony of clanging sounds. Chaotic, yet lively, no nail-laden toy was spared, nor were the wall lights, the living room sofa, bedroom drawers, the bathroom towel hooks everything was cleaned out.

Tan Xiao initially wanted to uninstall the doorknob, but it seemed the system wouldn’t allow it. No matter how he turned the screwdriver, he couldn’t unscrew it.

Even so, they managed to collect 226 nails!

How many teeth the Nail Tooth Monster had was unknown, but 226 nails  such a quantity, ought to be enough, right?

Bai Youwei glanced at the crystal ball on the cupboard.

This ball

When lively, it made lots of noise.

But when quiet, it could easily be mistaken for an ordinary music box.

Who knows what kind of mischief it was up to.

“The first rampage is unavoidable.” Yan Qingwen said, “Whether nails are necessary or how many are needed, we’ll know after this round.”

Shen Mo looked at him, “The time of the first round is short, but the uncertainty is the highest, and the danger is the greatest. The player inviting guests must be agile, or they will not escape.”

“I’ll go.” Yan Qingwen said calmly, “You’ve taken the lead twice this summer, it’s my turn.”

“Yan, if it’s about agility, I’m not bad either.” Su Man stepped forward, “You need to take Li Li to see Professor Song, you can’t afford to get hurt. I’ll invite the Nail Tooth Monster in.”

Yan Qingwen pondered for a moment, nodded and said, “Alright, you go first in the first round, be careful.”

He knew his position in the team. Letting Su Man go was not because he was afraid of dying, but as the backbone of the team, his accident would likely affect the team’s morale and performance in the next round.

Besides, Su Man might be impulsive, but her agility certainly wasn’t inferior to his.

“Then, let’s stick to our usual plan.” Yan Qingwen stood up, “The elderly, women, children, and those who are injured, go upstairs and find a place to hide for now. Those who remain, prepare to receive our guest.”
