But she didn’t want toin, because she had seen Jared’s and


    Dixon’s rooms too. Compared to their rooms, hers was much better. The conditions were indeed


    terrible. The room was simple with only a wooden bed, a rickety table, a chair, a broken desk and an


    old wardrobe.


    Everything was seen at a nce.


    The only thing tofort Debbie was that there was a new and clean set of bedding. She counted


    herself lucky for that.


    It was getting darker outside. After dropping off their own Luggage at their different rooms, the group


    gathered at the vige head’s house and had dinner together.


    The vige head had prepared enough food for the guests. On the long table, various dishes were


    served, everything from fresh farm ingredients. There was rabbit meat, turkey, pork and fish. ALL


    generously provided by farmers across the vige. Although the dishes didn’t look all that decorated,


    the aroma aroused Debbie’s appetite.


    After a moment of hesitation, Gregory finally picked his chopsticks and took a bite. But the other girls


    sat still, sipping at their cups of hot tea, to get some warmth. Gus and Jared, both born into aristocracy,


    kept killing time by ying games on their phones, without even lifting their chopsticks. Debbie couldn’t


    help but nudge Jared, and persuaded in a hushed voice, “Jared, eat something. Show some respect to


    the vigers!”

    Debbie knew sacrifice it must have taken the women who volunteered to prepare the meals. ‘The


    vigers would find it insulting, if we don’t eat, ‘ she thought.


    Reluctantly, Jared pursed his lips, put his phone aside and grabbed his chopsticks to pick a few slices


    of meat.


    However, Gus didn’t care. He remained glued to his phone. Unimpressed by his aloofness, Debbie


    rolled her eyes, but she didn’t want to wheedle him.


    As the team leader, Dixon, realized it was incumbent on him to address


    Gus’ indifference and maybe discourage anyone who might have simr thoughts. So when all the


    vigers went outside, he rose up to speak.


    “Hey, guys, Listen to me! The vigers have devoted a lot of effort to prepare this meal for us. Maybe


    these foods are not good enough for you guys, but for them, these are the best. Probably, they will only


    have the chance to enjoy such a big meal once a year, on New Year. So let’s be considerate enough,


    just Like what Debbie said. Eat some and show respect to the vigers, okay?”


    After Dixon’s words, all the students obeyed him and began eating the food, except one person.


    Once more, Debbie rolled her eyes. But she came up with an idea.


    “Dixon, do we have anything to charge our phones tonight?” she asked.


    Maybe that would destruct Gus.


    Dixon instantly understood what Debbie meant to say.


    “No,” he answered, his gaze fixed on Gus.


    Earlier when they dropped off their luggage, all of their attention was on how bad the living conditions


    were, so nobody noticed whether there was any socket in the room or not. Thus, when everyone heard


    Dixon’s answer, they woke up to another unpleasant reality. That was an inconvenience to their digital


    lifestyles.


    But right then, the vige head and the other vigers came in with some pots of wine in their hands.


    Seeing theming in, the students had to suppress theirints and quietly ate the food again.


    Still twiddling his fingers on the phone, Gus squinted at Debbie.


    “Stupid!” he spat out.


    Obsessed with his phone as he was, he had taken the time to check if there was a socket in his room,


    and to his relief, there was. So he could y on his phone all he wanted without worries on where to


    recharge.


    Since Gus would not budge, Debbie took out her phone and texted him.
