The bald man trembled like a leaf. His yellow eyes were fixated at the butcher's knife on the table.

"What are you looking dear guest?" Hunter A suddenly asked gently.

The bald man's legs went weak and he quickly looked away.

"Oh, here you go." Hunter A placed two plates in his hands and said: "The plates may be a bit heavy. With your legs shaking so much, please be careful. If you accidentally break them....Then we might have enough food for all of us."

The bald man was terrified.

When he came out of the kitchen, Hunter A again emphasised to everyone: "Remember? When you're helping me, you need to be very careful. If anyone in this room breaks any of the tableware, you will be severely punished. Hmm.....you probably don't want to go hungry and become someone else's food right?"

Everyone heard this sentence and looked at the answer wall in sync.

On it was a sentence ——- Cannot damage the tableware.

They originally thought that the maximum number of casualties for this question would be one and they didn't expect this kind of trap.

The bald man and Hunter A placed 13 plates out and arranged it in a circle along the long table. He then placed the glass bowl of meat in the middle.

When the last plate was placed down, the bald man let out a sigh of relief and slumped down onto a chair.

"Don't!"

Someone called out.

The bald man was stunned. He looked at the crowd.

He saw Old Yu using his eyes to direct him in the direction of the answer wall.

The bald man hurriedly looked over.

When the question was updated, the bald man had just returned from the confinement room and had been acting mad in the corner so he wasn't aware of the changes.

He saw the phrases "Only 12 can be accommodated" and "One is destined to die" and his face instantly turned pale.

Who knew whether or not the place he sat at was the one that was the unfortunate seat?

The bald man struggled to get up but a big pair of hands held him down.

Hunter A moved over to his ears and said: "You have already chosen a seat. You can't change it. It's no point standing up again. Forget it."

The words "forget it" stunned the bald man on the spot.

He slumped back in the chair and no longer moved.

Hunter A felt a little regretful. He sighed: "Haa.....How could he faint like that? I've only just served up the meat and there's also wine."

Food had not yet been eaten and one had already fallen.

Hunter A's eyes scanned across the others.

"I still need another person to help me get the glasses." He walked awkwardly to them while muttering: "Who should it be? I like children, let's go with a child..."

As he said that, his eyes rolled around in a circle and fell onto Yu Wen.

Yu Wen seemingly forgot to breathe.

Hunter A smiled and raised his hand.

"Then it'll be you my———"

His voice just fell when You Huo wordlessly moved in front of Yu Wen.

"——-child."

The finger that the Hunter A had stretched out pointed straight at him.

Hunter A's pale face stiffened.

You Huo looked at him calmly. "Me? Okay."

Hunter A: "..."

Okay your head.

He appeared to be a little angry.

You Huo then said: "Going back on your words?"

Hunter A retracted his finger and smiled while the edges of his lips twitched: "No, no. How can I do that? As the owner, of course I should be true to my words."

He felt miffed for a moment before waving his hand: "Come on kind-hearted guest."

He said "Come on".

But it sounded like "Why don't you die".

Hunter A turned around and walked into the kitchen.

You Huo didn't lift his eyes and followed behind.

Yu Wen was shocked. He hurriedly grabbed him and whispered: "Brother! What are you doing!?"

You Huo glanced at him: "Getting wine."

"Didn't you hear him?! If you accidentally break the glasses, you'll die!" Yu Wen was anxious.

You Huo: "...…..Am I physically incapacitated? To even break glasses just by carrying them?"

Yu Wen: "...…."

That's true but...

He still felt that his brother was going to do something.

"You tell me first. Why did you suddenly take the initiative to get the glasses?" Yu Wen didn't relent.

You Huo pointed at the answer wall with his chin. He then pried his sleeves out of Yu Wen's hands and said: "See the requirements for the answer?"

"Of course, I'm not blind."

You Huo calmly said: "Then let me teach you something."

"What?"

"The more emphasis there is, the more suspicious."

You Huo then walked off.

Yu Wen stood in place stunned. He quickly looked at his dad: "What does my brother mean??? Why am I so confused?!"

Old Yu was even more confused.

You Huo came to the kitchen.

Hunter A was looking for the key for the cabinet.

There was a total of seven keys hanging from the brass ring. He selected three of them and opened the doors on the right-hand side of the red cabinet. He slowly pulled out 13 wine glasses and arranged it in a row on the counter.

You Huo picked one up at random and examined it.

At first glance it was just an ordinary wine glass. Nothing abnormal was noted.

Hunter A frowned: "Put it down! Did I say that you can touch it?! Why don't you know about basic guest etiquette?"

You Huo snorted and placed the glass back.

He passed the door and looked a at the clock. He urged with a cold voice: "With your speed, do you have enough time in a day to have two meals?"

Hunter A: "..."

He glared at You Huo and quietly cursed at him. He then barely squeezed out a smile: "It's okay. It's okay. A generous owner should always be tolerant of the guest. I understand you're probably too hungry.
