Chapter 393 "Let's focus on finding a way out first," Melody said nonchalantly, a hint of a smirk on her lips. "There's no point in bickering if we're all going to die here anyway." The others glanced around, nodding in agreement. "Yeah, let's find the exit. There's plenty of tfor revenge after that." Dexter turned to Melody. "Any idea where the exit might be?"

Melody shota mocking look before turning away, clearly enjoying the situation.
Dexter's expression was grim, but he managed to slip something into my hand as he passed by.
I was startled but quickly hid it in my sleeve.
It must have been a small, curved knife, a perfect fit for my hand.
"Hand over the dagger," James demanded, knowing I was armed.
"You better cooperate, or else..." James approached, his eyes threatening.
I reluctantly handed over my dagger to James.
James made a move as if to search me, and I warned him. "Don't push it, or we'll all go down together." Considering we were on their turf, James backed off a bit.
