NovelTrueChapter 1326:
As they sat with that grim thought, Michael walked over with a bag in hand.
“Take these,” he said, placing it down in front of them. “Split them up evenly.”
They looked at him uncertainly. “Our captain told us not to bring anything else.”
“He's strict, but he’s got a soft spot,” Michael reassured them. “You guys are new. He won't let you starve. He
just wants you to learn how to survive.”
They exchanged uneasy glances.
Michael went on, “Go ahead. He specifically toldto give you these.”
“Ellis Lambert?” Moss asked, startled.
“Yeah. Toldto sneak these over and not say it was from him,” Michael said as he split the supplies. “He's got
his own ways.”
Without a second thought, they tucked the supplies into their backpacks. Now, they had enough to make it
through the seven days.
“Do hide it,” Michael warned them. “If he finds out, you'll have to give it all back.”

They started thinking they might be figuring Ellis out. They believed he was that rare kind of leader—strict, but

week.”
Freya furrowed her brows, eyes lingering on her backpack, deep in thought.
Riley caught her expression. “What's on your mind?”
“I think this might be a trap,” Freya said cautiously.
Greta raised a brow. “What kind of trap?”
“The captain said no one could bring anything else,” Freya reasoned. “But this stuff...”
Technically, what Michael gave them wasn’t allowed. What if it was a trap?

“Don’t stress. It's fine,” Greta waved it off. “Our captain is strict, but he’s got a soft spot. We're still new. He
won't cdown too hard.”
“I agree.” Riley nodded.
