There is the danger and it is growing, but they're still doing their normal everyday tasks, or so they think.
I find it very easy to be oblivious right along with them. Heh. But yeah, once you know that it's building in the background, it does change the flavour of everything. I guess, too, it's the difference between the novel where it feels like Weilan is the A plot and everything else is the B plot, and the drama where Weilan is woven into everything else and it's all the A plot. Or something. Idk, it makes sense in my head. ;-p
And then pretty much immediately after that, Shen Wei doesn't catch Zhao Yunlan because of his literal hands being literally not clean (even though getting stained with cabbage juice is kind of a lot better than falling while blind)
Oh, that's right! I remember you picking up on it at the time, now. Yes! (Thanks so much for digging those quotes out. <3) I wasn't sure how literally SW meant "filthy hands" when he was talking to Ghost Face (or whether it was like a "getting your hands dirty" kind of idiom), but it does come across as Extremely Literal and Specific in that context, you're right. :-/
