Sylvia's POV:
There was no information about the sender on the box, which I found was quite heavy.
Flora gave the box a light shake before helping me put it down. "It's so heavy! Do you think it's a bomb?"
I grew hesitant and suddenly didn't want to open the box anymore. The box was just plain white, without any logo or anything printed on top of it. It did, however, emit a faint fragrance.
"Should I open it?" I looked at Flora nervously.
Flora violently shook her head. "No, no, no. What if Lucy found us out and sent a bomb to kill us?"
"Mm, I don't really think she would do something that blatant."
If anything, I was expecting a more secret attack from them. Using a bomb would just create trouble for everyone.
Just as I was about to open the box, Yana stopped me.
"Retreat! Abort mission!" Yana screamed in my head.
I stopped in my tracks and took a step back. Seeing my sudden reaction, Flora also stepped back.
"What was that? What's wrong, Sylvia?"
"I think we should be prepared for whatever it is when I open it..." I said, pretending to be calm.
Flora nodded and immediately went for a tin bucket and placed it on her head, while I opted for a washbasin as my helmet. Both of us took our thick quilts from the beds and wrapped ourselves in it.
