Chapter 335


    Seeing the two bickering again, Joana walked over and whispered, “Astrid, can I sleep with you in your


    tent tonight? I’m scared to sleep alone.”


    “Scared? How interesting you ask me this favor. Weren’t you sleeping alonest night? Why weren’t


    you scared then?” Astrid gave Joana a sarcastic look and bowed her head and continued to drink


    soup..


    Joana seemed a bit deted by the rejection, “Yesterday we didn’t walk far and we could still see the


    lights of the town, but now we’re deep in the mountains.”


    “We’re the only two girls here, why don’t we share the tent? This will keep both of us warmer..”


    Astrid ‘I’m not nning on sleeping in the tent tonight, I’m going to stay by the fire.”


    “There’s a snowstormingte tonight. For safety’s sake, nobody should be in the tents. If you’re


    tired, just rest a bit by the fire.”


    “You think you can just predict a snowstorm? Say there’s a snowstorm and there’ll be a snowstorm?”


    Joana pouted and returned to sit by the fire, sulking.


    Astrid didn’t want to argue with Joana. She took a stick and poked the fire, adding more wood.


    Past midnight, the snow hadpletely stopped. Parrish stood up and said, “Alright, the snow’s


    stopped. We can pitch the tents now.”


    “Tonight the temperature will drop to minus twenty. Don’t stray too far from the fire.” Naylor said. Joana


    and the others ignored him, yawning and heading off to pitch the


    tents.


    Astrid shook her head speechless. She had checked the weather forecast for the week before they


    came. Tonight was the coldest night of the period. They brought sleeping bags and tents, but the


    sleeping bags weren’t very thick.


    She was cold even in the special thermal clothes Elio had given her, let alone the others.


    Their campfire was in a shallow cave, which provided shelter from the rain and there wasn’t much wind


    in the dead of night, so with the fire, it wouldn’t be too cold.


    But the ce for pitching tents was right in the path of the wind, and the wind was very strong. It was


    too dangerous.


    Naylor, not a man of many words, didn’t repeat his warning when no one listened to him the first time.


    Clyde had noticed since they entered the mountain that Astrid was very experienced in survival in the


    wild. Seeing that Astrid and Elio did not move, he did not go to pitch a tent either.


    After sitting for a while, Clyde was feeling sleepy, so he took out a deck of cards and said to the others,


    “It’s too boring. Let’s y some poker.”


    Astrid was surprised at it. She didn’t expect Clyde to carry a deck of cards with him.


    To kill time, they sat in a circle and yed poker.


    From the start, Clyde had noticed Astrid’s gloves were different from the others‘. He asked, “Astrid,


    your gloves look pretty unique. Qurs are thick and bulky, but yours look thin. Are they waterproof and


    warm?”


    “Yeah, they’re quite warm,” Astrid, sucking on a lollipop, focused on her cards.


    Clyde: “Where did you buy them? I also want to buy them.”


    “They were a gift from my brother.” They were thetest product developed by Robb Brooke


    Corporation and hadn’t officially been released yet.


    The gloves were temperature–regting, always keeping the same temperature as the body. They


    were waterproof, warm, and made of a sturdy material that was hard to


    tear.

    “Oh.” Clyde responded.


    Suddenly a gust of wind blew past, everyone couldn’t help trembling.


    Naylor added some more wood to the fire. He stood up and looked at the sky, looking very serious.
