At this moment, Song Fan voiced her conclusion, “There must be supplies here, and those people know where they are.”

Hearing there was food, everyone became excited. Hunger made them crave food even more, a fact Song Fan understood better than anyone.

“Great, those mental patients must know where the food is. No wonder they’re so strong; eating fills them with energy,” Cao Lei jumped up from the ground, his eyes shining.

“Can you communicate with the mentally ill? Torture them to find out where the food is?” Song Fan poured cold water on his enthusiasm.

She didn’t want to harm these people right now. It was clear they were Jason’s test subjects. Especially the man who died from poisoning, she realized their battles were also a kind of experiment. She just hadn’t figured out the key point yet.

Cao Lei had already picked up the fireworks. “Boss, do you think this is like a game? When the signal flares go off, a supply drop will appear?”

“In all these days, have you seen any fireworks?” Sun Yu rolled her eyes. “In games, whoever gets the equipment first is the first to die.”

Although her words made sense, Song Fan thought it was worth a try.

Seeing Song Fan pick up the fireworks, the others tensed up. She said nonchalantly, “Right now, there’s no other way but to try. Otherwise, if it comes to cannibalism, I doubt any of you would have the stomach for it. Sun Yu and I will test it; you all stay here and wait.”

Sun Yu’s eyes reflected one thought: “Are you crazy?” But she still followed.

In this situation, making such a big move could expose their position, potentially leading to their capture.

But Song Fan was tired of this uncertainty. Whether the fireworks brought supplies or enemies, she had to try. She needed to return and wasn’t sure if Gu Chen’s poison had been cured.

When it was completely dark, Song Fan lit the fireworks. They shot up quickly, but it wasn’t a grand display—just two red flares ascending and falling.

On the other side, the lookout tower saw the fireworks and immediately sent a four-person team to the launch site.

“Do you think there’ll be a problem?” Sun Yu was worried. It had been five minutes, and there was no sign of an airdrop or even a bird call.

Song Fan gave her a look that said, “Shut up if you have no solutions,” and Sun Yu wisely lay still.

The rest of the group was only a few meters away, hiding in the bushes, their eyes all on Song Fan.

An hour later, a few people approached them.

“Is anyone there?” a voice called softly.

Sun Yu quickly responded, “Here!”

“Well, it’s the tough woman still alive. She’s a feisty one,” the approaching woman teased. Sun Yu was the only woman in this batch sent to the island.

“How many of you are left? Did you get the stuff?” the person continued.

“We got it, all the jars are with us,” Sun Yu replied, referring to the eyeballs as proof of kills.

Hearing this, the group seemed to lower their guard and quickened their pace.

“This round ended fast. Guess those guys were too weak.”

“Better finish early than be stuck in the lookout tower all day.”

“Yeah, yeah, let’s just get it over with.”

As they approached, Song Fan swiftly grabbed the leader’s chin and dislocated his jaw with a “crack,” silencing him.

Before the others could react, she kicked another man in the temple, knocking him out instantly.

The last two couldn’t draw their guns before Sun Yu pointed two pistols at them. They froze and raised their hands.

Song Fan then noticed one of them was the man who had given her the coat. She said nothing but quickly disarmed the group.

Cao Lei and two others ran over, efficiently tying up the four men.

One of the captives tried to shout, but seeing two or three dozen people emerge from the bushes, he lost his nerve.

Especially when facing a dozen guns, the leader could only nod frantically, his dislocated jaw preventing him from speaking. His eyes pleaded for mercy.

Ignoring him, Song Fan kicked the man who had given her the coat, “Tell me, how do we get up?”
