Chen Yihan leaned towards Katniss, put his hands on Katniss' waist in the sleeping bag, and moved his face towards hers.

But when the lips of the two were about to stick together, suddenly, there was a dull metal crash.

Both Chen Yihan and Katniss jumped up in shock. Chen Yihan picked up the bow and arrow and was about to shoot, but no other sounds were heard.

Katniss looked through the cracks in the stone, and then cried out.

Before Chen Yihan could call her to stop, she jumped into the rain and handed something to Chen Yihan.

A basket was tethered under a silver parachute.

Chen Yihan quickly opened it, and there were rich dishes inside.

Fresh omelets, feta cheese, apples...

Best of all is the lamb stew with wild rice served in a soup plate! [

Chen Yihan told Caesar Flickman that it was the best food in the Capitol.

Katniss twisted and slid into the hole, a cheerful smile on her face. "I guess Haymitch is tired of watching us starve."

"I think so." Chen Yihan replied.

But in Chen Yihan's heart, he could hear Haymitch's words, "Yes, what you have done is exactly what I want, dear." His words were resentful, but still quite smug.

At this moment, Chen Yihan really wanted to plunge into the stew, stuff it into his mouth, and eat it all at once, but Katniss stopped him.

"We'd better take our time with that stew, remember our first night on the train? I ate so much I felt sick and I haven't even felt hungry since."

"You're right, it's impossible for me to eat all these things in one bite!" Chen Yihan said regretfully.

In fact, they are not sorry, they are very sensible.

Chen Yihan and Katniss each ate an egg roll, half an apple, and rice stew the size of an egg.

Chen Yihan ate the stewed meat in small bites, savoring the food slowly.

After the two of them finished eating, Chen Yihan was still looking at the food greedily.

"I still want to eat."

"Me too, let's wait an hour, and if we're still hungry, we'll eat more," Katniss said.

"I agree, this hour must be very long." Chen Yihan pouted.

"Maybe not that long," Katniss said, "what did you say before the food came, it was about me...no competition...it's best for you..."[

"I don't remember saying those last few words." Chen Yihan lowered his head, hoping that it would be dark enough for the camera to miss his blushing.

In a very strange state of mind, I would actually feel shy and blush!

It must be the ghost of the Lord God! !

Chen Yihan thought in an atmosphere.

"Oh, yes, that's what I was thinking," Katniss said, "I'm freezing over there."

Chen Yihan made room for her in the sleeping bag.

The two of them leaned against the cave wall, Katniss's head rested on Chen Yihan's shoulder, and Chen Yihan hugged her with his arms.

Chen Yihan could feel Haymitch saying: "Keep this position."

"So, there are five of us, haven't you noticed the other girls?" Katniss asked aloud.

"No, I've seen almost every girl, but you've left the most lasting impression on me."

"Your parents must be surprised that you like a 'Sandwich' girl," Katniss said.

"It's a little bit, but I don't care. Anyway, if we can go back, you will no longer be a girl from 'The Seam', but a girl from 'Victory Village'." Chen Yihan laughed.

That's right, if they win the game, they'll both get a house just for the winner of the Hunger Games.

Long ago, at the beginning of the Hunger Games, the Capitol built twelve beautiful houses in each district.

Of course, only one house in District 12 is inhabited.

However, even if he wins the game, it is impossible for him and Katniss to live here.

What I want to get back is the main god space.

But Katniss didn't know this. Thinking that she could win the competition and live in a beautiful house, she pouted her little nose: "Then, our only neighbor is Haymitch!"

"Ah, this is very good." Chen Yihan hugged Katniss tightly, and coped: "You, I and Haymitch, it's very comfortable. Picnics, birthday parties, we can still enjoy the long winter nights Sitting around the fire and telling Hunger Games stories."

"I'm telling you, he hates me!" Katniss said. "It's ridiculous that Haymitch is my new friend."

"Sometimes he might be, but when he became serious, I didn't hear him say a bad word about you." Chen Yihan said.

"But he's never serious!" Katniss objected.

"That's right. Who do I want to talk about? Oh, yes, Cinna likes you, mainly because you didn't run away when he set the fire on you." Chen Yihan said, "As for him, Haymitch... well, If I were you, I would avoid him too, he doesn't like you."

"I thought you'd say I was his favorite," Katniss said.

"Actually, he hates me even more." Chen Yihan shrugged, "I think he doesn't fit in with most people."

Chen Yihan knew that the audience liked the two of them making fun of Haymitch.

He's been in the game for so long that, for some, he's an all-too-familiar face.

Haymitch has become a household name since his fall from the stage at the Harvest Festival ceremony.

At this moment, someone must have dragged him out of the control room for an interview about himself and Katniss.

I don't know what kind of nonsense he will make up.

However, Haymitch is also at a disadvantage because most instructors have a partner, they can help each other out, but Haymitch has to be ready to fight at all times, kind of like fighting alone in the arena.

Moreover, he likes to drink, but he has to keep himself sober, and he has to try to keep himself and Katniss alive. Chen Yihan wonders how he copes with all this.

In fact, Chen Yihan and Haymitch have a very good relationship in private. Maybe Katniss is right. Chen Yihan and Haymitch are very similar. In many things, the two of them seem to have a good understanding.

For example, the time control of giving gifts, when Haymitch did not deliver water to Chen Yihan, he knew that he was close to the water source.

And cough sleeping syrup isn't for Katniss' pain, and there's the romance that's supposed to be happening now.

In fact, Haymitch didn't spend a lot of effort to communicate with Chen Yihan. Maybe he felt that to Chen Yihan, a bowl of broth was a bowl of broth, but he could see the mystery behind it.

Chen Yihan suddenly remembered something, and he was surprised that this question had been in his mind for a long time, maybe because he hadn't developed curiosity about Haymitch until recently.

"How do you think he did it?" Chen Yihan asked.

"Who? What?"

"Haymitch, how did he win the race?"

Katniss thought for a long time, but did not answer.

Haymitch was strong, but not as big as Cato and Thrash.

He wasn't particularly handsome, either, and he wasn't the type to get a lot of presents from his patrons.

And he has a surly temperament, it's hard to imagine anyone willing to be his companion.

There's only one way Haymitch can win.

Chen Yihan was about to tell the reason, but Katniss blurted out first: "He is smarter than others."

Chen Yihan nodded and didn't say anything more.

In private, Chen Yihan wondered if Haymitch was awake long enough to ensure that he and Katniss could survive, because he felt that he and Katniss had enough wisdom to survive.

Maybe he wasn't always drunk.

Maybe, when he was the instructor at the beginning, he really helped the players, and slowly he found it unbearable.

Mentoring two children and then watching them die was painful.

Chen Yihan realized that if he and Katniss could get out from here, then, year after year, this would also become Katniss' job, guiding girls in District [-].

Then Katniss, there is something to suffer.

About half an hour passed, and Chen Yihan felt that he needed to eat something.

Katniss was too hungry to argue with herself.

The two of them scooped out two spoonfuls of rice stew and were about to eat it when the national anthem sounded.

Katniss peered out at the sky through a crack in the stone.

"I can't see anything tonight." Chen Yihan said, he was more interested in the meat stewed rice than the images in the sky, "There will be nothing, and we will not hear the sound of artillery."

"Chen Yihan." Katniss said softly.

"What? Are we going to share another egg roll?" Chen Yihan asked.

"Chen Yihan." She repeated, but Chen Yihan still didn't pay much attention.

"I want to share one, but I'll save the cheese until tomorrow." After Chen Yihan finished speaking, he didn't get any response from Katniss. He turned his head and found that Katniss was staring at him, and asked suspiciously: "Why? gone?"

"Tharysh is dead," Katniss said.

"He can't."

"It must have been the cannon that fired during the thunder, and we didn't hear it," Katniss went on.

"Are you sure? I mean, it's raining heavily, I don't know how you saw it." Chen Yihan opened Katniss from the edge of the stone, and looked outside at the dark rainy night.

For about ten seconds, Chen Yihan saw the distorted image of Salish, so he really left, just like that.

Chen Yihan fell down beside the stone wall in a daze, temporarily forgetting what he was doing.

Thresh was dead, he should be happy, shouldn't he?

There is one less opponent, a strong opponent.

But Chen Yihan was not happy. All that came to his mind was the scene of Salish letting him go. He let him go for Lulu, the girl with the spear in her belly.

"Are you okay?" Katniss asked concerned.

Chen Yihan shrugged, feeling confused, but he still ate the rice and stewed meat in big gulps, pretending not to care, but the rice was swirling in Chen Yihan's mouth, and he swallowed it with difficulty.

"That means Cato's coming for us," Katniss said. "Maybe he's getting his supplies again."

"I guess he should be injured too." Chen Yihan said after swallowing the rice.

"Why do you say that?" Katniss asked.

"Because Salish must have had a fight with Cato before he fell, he's so strong, and they're in his turf."

"The more Cato is injured, the worse it will be. I wonder what happened to Foxface?"

"Oh, she's fine." Chen Yihan said angrily, remembering that she hid in the Horn of Zeus, but he didn't expect it, and he still feels aggrieved, "Maybe it's easier to find Salish than to find her."

"Maybe they find each other and we can go straight home," Katniss said, "but we have to be extra careful when we're on sentry, I've dozed off a few times."

"Me too," Chen Yihan admitted, "but not tonight."

Chen Yihan and Katniss finished their meal in silence, and Katniss proposed to watch first.Chen Yihan didn't argue, he got into the sleeping bag, lay down beside her, and closed the lid to block the camera lens.

Chen Yihan felt that both of them needed a little private space to release the expressions on their faces.

Underneath the cover, Chen Yihan silently said goodbye to Salish and thanked him for saving his life.

Chen Yihan also secretly made a wish, he must remember him, if he wins, if he has a chance, he will help his family and Lulu's family.

Then, Chen Yihan fell asleep with a full stomach, and the warmth of Katniss beside him.

When Katniss woke Chen Yihan up, he suddenly smelled cheese. Katniss was holding up half an egg roll with white cheese and apple slices on it.

"Don't be silly, I still want to eat, this is half of yours."

"Oh, good." Chen Yihan took it and immediately took a big bite.The fragrant cheese melts in your mouth, the apples are sweet and crisp, "Oh!"

"Eat slowly, I'm going to sleep for a while, I can't stare anymore." Katniss got into the sleeping bag, pulled it up, and within a minute, she fell asleep.

Chen Yihan looked at Katniss who was snoring lightly as soon as he closed his eyes, smiled, and began to take the role of jng ring.

The rain at this moment did not fall slowly, but stopped suddenly.

The downpour had stopped, only the water dripped slowly from the branches, and the stream flowed beside them.

A full moon rises in the sky, it is beautiful, even without glasses, everything around can be seen clearly.

Chen Yihan couldn't tell whether the moon was real or an image made by the contest organizers.

Chen Yihan recalled the moon on the last night in the main god space...

How long have you been in this mission world?It has been about two weeks since I came to the arena, plus a week of preparations in the Capitol, maybe the moon will be full again.

For some reason, Chen Yihan especially longed for the moon in the space of the main god to hang high in the sky at this time.In this way, in a surreal world where everything is an imaginary arena, there is finally something real.

There are four people left...

The sun finally rose, and the sunlight shot in through the cracks in the stones, shining on Katniss' face.

Chen Yihan looked at her, thinking what would her life be like if he returned to the main god's space?

This incomprehensible but kind girl will weave convincing lies, making the whole country of Panem believe that he has fallen madly in love with her.

And I also admitted that several times, I even believed her.

Or maybe, this is true?

Chen Yihan lay uncomfortably, moved his body, turned around and shook Katniss' shoulder.

She opened her sleepy eyes, and when she woke up and her eyes fell on Chen Yihan's face, she threw Chen Yihan down and kissed him long.

"We are wasting hunting time." Chen Yihan finally broke free from her and said.

"I don't think so." Katniss sat up and stretched, "Then, is it easier to catch prey if we have an empty stomach?"

"No," Chen Yihan said, "Let's go after eating, it will be more energetic."

"Count me in." Katniss took the leftover rice and stew from Chen Yihan, and asked in surprise, "Have you eaten all?"

"Let's earn it back today." After Chen Yihan finished speaking, he began to eat with big mouthfuls.

Even if it's cold, it's still the best food Chen Yihan has eaten these days.After finishing eating, Chen Yihan put down the fork, scraped up the last bit of gravy with his fingers, sucked his fingers, and said with a smile: "Effit Lynch will definitely curl his lips when he sees me like this."

"Hey Effie, look at this!" Katniss said, throwing the fork behind her and licking the plate clean with her tongue while making loud contented noises.

Then he blew a kiss to the camera and yelled, "I miss you, Effie!"

Chen Yihan hurriedly covered her mouth with his hands, but he himself laughed: "Stop barking, maybe Cato is outside the cave."

Katniss grabbed Chen Yihan's hand and pulled it aside: "What do I care about? Now you are protecting me."

"Stop making trouble." Chen Yihan was anxious, but Katniss rushed over and kissed him.

After the long French kiss was over, Chen Yihan and Katniss packed their bags and went outside the cave.

As soon as they came outside the cave, the two of them immediately became serious.

In the past few days, Cato was tracking Saresh, and the two of them hid in the hole of the heavy rain, and their tense emotions were temporarily relaxed, as if they had spent a vacation.

Now, though the sun was shining and the weather was warm, they both felt like they were back in the Hunger Games again.

Chen Yihan handed the knife to Katniss, talking about what kind of weapon she used to have, but now it has disappeared.

Katniss hesitated, took the knife, and pinned it to his waist.

Originally, Katniss wanted to ask Chen Yihan for the bow and arrow. After all, bow and arrow are her strengths.

However, she was afraid that Chen Yihan would refuse, so she did not speak in the end.

Chen Yihan looked at the arrows in the quiver, and there were only seven arrows left.

The arrows rattled in the loose quiver.

"He's looking for us," Katniss said, "Cato isn't the type to wait for his prey to come."

"If he gets hurt..."

"Injured?" Katniss interrupted Chen Yihan, "As long as he can move, he must be looking for us."

Chen Yihan shrugged and said: "Let's look for it, even if he doesn't come to us, I'm going to look for him."

"Looking for him?" Katniss widened her eyes and looked at Chen Yihan in surprise.

Chen Yihan nodded vigorously, and said: "Yes, find him, then kill him, and finally kill the rest of the people, and end this damn game." (To be continued.)
