Chapter 63: Chapter 63 The Game of the Scar-faced Monster

An ominous premonition quietly rose.

Behind…

It seemed like there was someone!

Without time to think, Fang Xiaocao wielded her dagger and fiercely slashed behind her.

At this time, a knife was more useful than a gun!

The dagger cut through the air, but behind her was emptiness.

Fang Xiaocao was stunned!

She had clearly felt someone behind her just a moment ago!

Suddenly, Fang Xiaocao’s gaze sharpened.

Yun Luoshu was gone!

“No good!”

Fang Xiaocao exclaimed and ran toward Yun Luoshu’s tent.

It must be “Zhi Qi”!

Or rather, the Scar-faced Monster!

It was he who had silently abducted Yun Luoshu while she was inspecting the tent.

Fang Xiaocao didn’t even know when Yun Luoshu had been taken.

Rushing to the tent, a very obvious dragging trace extended from the side of the tent into the woods.

It was like a deliberately left signpost.

Clearly, “Zhi Qi” wanted her to enter the woods.

This was an overt plot!

To save someone, one must follow the trail.

“Damn it!”

Fang Xiaocao cursed under her breath.

“When exactly was Luoshu abducted?”

Fang Xiaocao started replaying the action in her mind.

At this moment, Fang Xiaocao made a terrifying discovery. @@novelbin@@

It seemed that after she had dealt with “Wen Shi,” the person sitting in front of the tent was no longer Yun Luoshu!

The person dressed in a windbreaker, holding a gun, smiling at her…

Was “Zhi Qi”!

All her actions were under his watch…

“The game of cat and mouse!”

A thought surfaced in Fang Xiaocao’s mind.

She was that…

Little mouse being toyed with in the palm of a cat!

“Shasha shasha…”

Footsteps came from the woods.

That sound was so familiar!

That’s right!

It was the footsteps of the Scar-faced Monster!

The same as the ones she heard in the woods.

The deliberate footsteps, like death’s knell.

They chilled Fang Xiaocao to the bone.

The footsteps were closing in…

Fang Xiaocao slowly backed away…

While raising her gun, aiming into the woods.

At the same time, the footsteps abruptly stopped!

“He’s afraid of the gun?”

Fang Xiaocao murmured doubtfully.

“Impossible!”

Soon, Fang Xiaocao shook her head, dismissing her ridiculous thought.

If the Scar-faced Monster truly feared the gun in her hands, he wouldn’t play the game of cat and mouse.

He clearly had a thousand chances to shoot her dead, so why bother waiting for her to get a weapon and pose a threat to him?

Fang Xiaocao suddenly halted her steps!

Behind…

Heavy breathing could be heard.

“He’s behind me!”

Fang Xiaocao instantly felt her flesh creep.

She turned to look behind her with her gun in hand, but there was no one there.

The heavy breathing also stopped abruptly.

“Shasha shasha…”

The footsteps came again.

Fang Xiaocao turned in horror, in the dimly lit woods, a face full of burn scars and blemishes was eerily smiling at her…

“Bang!”

Fang Xiaocao instinctively pulled the trigger.

A loud gunshot shattered the night’s silence in the woods.

A large tree to Fang Xiaocao’s front left exploded upon the shot.

This shot…

Had missed!

It was way off!

In the dimness, that ghastly and horrifying face silently mocked Fang Xiaocao.

Fang Xiaocao was frantic, aiming the gun.

However…

Before she could pull the trigger again!

That face flickered and vanished behind the tree.

The Scar-faced Monster was not holding a gun!

Seeing this, Fang Xiaocao felt a surge of relief.

She raised her gun, ready to chase into the woods.

But after two steps, Fang Xiaocao stopped in her tracks.

“This is a trap!”

Fang Xiaocao reminded herself.

“Stay calm, keep calm!”

Fang Xiaocao muttered repeatedly, reminding herself not to act impulsively.

“Rustle, rustle, rustle…”

The sound of footsteps rose again!

To the left!

Fang Xiaocao lifted her gun, turned, and executed the movement in one smooth motion.

In that empty tent to the left, at some point…

A figure had appeared!

That person was peering out of the tent, staring at her!

Fang Xiaocao’s scalp tingled in an instant!

“Bang, bang, bang!”

She fired three shots at the tent!

A burst of blood blossomed, staining the tent red.

The figure inside the tent fell to the ground at the sound.

Seeing this, Fang Xiaocao felt a surge of elation.

She ran quickly toward the tent to check the result.

Pulling back the tent, inside lay the corpse that belonged to “Su Wanqing.”

Seeing this, Fang Xiaocao was stunned.

She turned her head in horror, looking towards the remnants of the campfire.

Just now, there clearly was someone lying there!

At this glance, Fang Xiaocao’s pupils dilated instantly.

Next to the remains of the campfire, indeed, another person was lying…

“Who could that be?”

“Could it be the Scar-faced Monster!”

Fang Xiaocao’s body trembled uncontrollably.

She didn’t know if it was from nerves or fear.

She glanced at the tent again, confirming it was “Su Wanqing.”

The knife wound on the neck, the bloody hole in the chest.

They signaled that she was dead beyond any doubt.

No longer a threat to her!

Fang Xiaocao took a deep breath, raised her gun, and slowly walked toward the remains of the campfire.

It wasn’t that Fang Xiaocao didn’t want to pull the trigger.

But from this distance, she simply couldn’t hit the target.

Moreover, Fang Xiaocao was afraid of friendly fire.

Approaching slowly, with every step Fang Xiaocao’s heart raced a little faster.

That restless heart seemed like it might leap out of her mouth at any moment.

“Gulp~”

Her mouth was so dry from nerves that Fang Xiaocao swallowed instinctively.

Close now!

At a distance of five meters, Fang Xiaocao was confident she could hit the target.

Fang Xiaocao stopped, not daring to get closer.

She frowned and stared intently at the person.

Her gaze slowly shifted to his face.

It was “Wen Shi” next to the remains of the campfire!

The ropes that had bound her were loose, and for some reason, had been untied, but she still lay with eyes closed, unconscious, showing no signs of waking up.

Fang Xiaocao was shocked, her heartbeat skipping half a beat.

Was this Scar-faced Monster human or ghost?

Why were his actions so bizarre?

When had he moved “Wen Shi” next to the remains of the campfire, and when had he placed “Su Wanqing’s” body in that vacant tent?

Why hadn’t she heard a thing?

All these actions were completed after she had checked that tent.

No more than three minutes in total!

And she had been completely unaware!

Since “Wen Shi” showed no sign of waking up, Fang Xiaocao didn’t dare go over to bind her again.

The Scar-faced Monster was just too unpredictable.

Too fast!

Fang Xiaocao feared that while she was tying up “Wen Shi,” she would look up to find the Scar-faced Monster standing in front of her, smiling…

“Rustle, rustle, rustle…”

The footsteps of doom sounded again.

They were deliberate and clear.

The sound, sometimes far and sometimes near, was as if someone was teleporting through the woods.

Fang Xiaocao took a deep breath and looked in the direction the footstep sounds were coming from.

Indeed…

That hideous and terrifying face was smiling at her again.

No matter how many times Fang Xiaocao saw that eerie smile, she still found it absolutely chilling.

“What on earth do you want?” Fang Xiaocao yelled out desperately.

“Hehe…”

The Scar-faced Monster pulled back its lips, and that eerie laugh floated over.

The next second…

The Scar-faced Monster bent down and dragged someone up from the ground!

It was Yun Luoshu!
