Burton was taken aback, "What?"
Eileen frowned, "Of course, this is my stuff."
Burton looked at the suitcase on the ground in confusion, "But isn't this the robbers'..."
Eileen suddenly stood up, confidently stepping on the suitcase and shouted, "I found this suitcase and it's mine now! There's no name on it, how do you know whose it is?"
Burton, "Huh?"
Egbert approached, patting Burton's shoulder, "Yeah, it's hers."
Burton, "What???"
He thought, “are you guys robbers?”
Anyway, Burton finally got some clothes to wear.
Just as he was about to sit down and rest, he heard Eileen say, "Go find some food."
Burton looked around, then pointed to his nose, "Me?"
Eileen was not satisfied, "Of course. I lent you my clothes and you should pay me back, right?"
Burton was shocked.
Christy felt awkward, "I'll go with him."
Eileen glanced at him, indifferent, "Alright, be safe."
Egbert also said, "I'll go too."
Eileen immediately turned to Egbert, "What are you going for?"
Egbert smiled, "To accompany them?"
Eileen frowned, "Why do you always like to make a fuss? You're so sensitive and not helpful, just wait here for dinner."
Burton, "You...?"
What's up with Mr. Reed?
Wait, Christy is not stronger than Mr. Reed, why does he have to work but Mr. Reed can chill?
Burton felt it was very unfair.
Just as he was about to say something, the girl across yelled at him, "Not going? It's getting dark! Are you blind?"
Burton jumped.
He swallowed his complaints, feeling wronged, and went to find food with Christy.
He didn't mind working, but he wasn't good at foraging. What if he accidentally picked a poisonous mushroom?
Mr. Reed was a soldier of special forces, with over half a year of jungle tracking experience. His survival skills were much better!
Only Eileen and Egbert were left in the camp.
The two white monkeys were still under anesthesia, sleeping in the tent.
Egbert stood by the fire, watching Eileen like a busy hamster, taking out the robbers' suitcases and stuffing the contents into her own backpack.
The backpack was too small to fit all this stuff.
Egbert said, "Just take the useful things."
"No!" Eileen insisted, shouting, "These are mine, all mine, I want to take them all!"
Egbert was speechless.
Eileen struggled for a while, realizing she couldn't fit all the stuff.
She stood there in silence.
After a while, she suddenly said, "We need more backpacks. If we had two more, three in total, we could fit everything. Then, I'd carry one, and Burton would carry two."
Egbert laughed, "Where'd you find more backpacks?"
Each team only had one backpack. He and Burton had lost theirs, so now they only had Eileen's one left.
Eileen suddenly looked at Egbert, "Hedy has a backpack."
