Chapter 264: Footsteps Behind You

It's late at night.

There are no stars in the lilac sky, only a crescent moon, releasing bright light and illuminating the streets.

Shi Hanrui thanked the city guard who let her into the city and walked into the city with a haggard face.

"Mr. Shang asked me to tell you that your companions are waiting for you in the merchant's residence. The address is No. 28, Queen's Avenue. I also have to guard the city gate, so you can go by yourself."

Chengwei half-squinted his eyes and said to her.

He should have sent the girl as agreed.

But why did he run this stretch more? Just for an ordinary evolver?

no need.

Anyway, Shang Yongyi also gave it casually, and it seems that he doesn't value this girl very much.

Moreover, this girl is obviously a family member with an immature mind and has never seen anyone in the world.

She actually thought about taking those ordinary people into the city, which was definitely a problem with her mind. Thinking of this, the city guard's eyes were diverted with a hint of disdain.

"Thank you."

Shi Hanrui thanked her and felt very tired.

Shi Hanrui was exhausted physically and mentally at this moment. She never expected that a kind-hearted act would cause such consequences.

Her original purpose was to save the child who was about to be crushed to death by the wheel.

Unexpectedly, as soon as she jumped out of the car, she was surrounded by a group of crazy and desperate people. There were even several evolvers inside, with great power and kept pulling her arm.

She originally wanted to hold the child and leave directly, but in the chaos, the child was pulled away by someone.

Those crazy people want to stuff their children into her arms, so the girls who were originally held in her arms became thorns in their eyes.

In the end, when the city guards rushed to disperse the crowd and the chaos subsided, she realized that the child she wanted to save had been trampled to death in the chaos, and there was still fear and unwillingness in those eyes.

When Shi Hanrui thought of this, her eyes turned red and her arms trembled slightly.

Her clothes were torn into strips of cloth by the group of people, and her arms were covered with bruises and scratches.

She couldn't help but recall what Chi Muyun dissuaded her when she was in the car before.

"Don't go on. If you do this, you may not necessarily save her, but may have harmed her."

At that time, Shi Hanrui didn't believe Chi Muyun's words at all, and just looked at her in surprise, "Sister Chi, you are obviously very good... Why did you say such words?"

She stood up with a firm look and opened the car door, "I must not watch this child be crushed to death by the wheel in front of her."

"You are like this..." Chi Muyun wanted to say something, but she didn't care at all and jumped out of the car.

result……

Everything was as Chi Muyun said. The child was not crushed to death by the wheel, but died in the chaotic crowd.

And she was the fuse that triggered all this.

"Me, am I really wrong?" Shi Hanrui covered her face, her palms full of tears.

After wiping her tears with her sleeves, she raised her head and walked forward along the street steps by the street.

Fortunately, there are road signs and distribution maps on the city streets of the metropolis. She walked into the intersection of the street, where there was a sign inserted into the soil.

“Queen Avenue, 28.”

She quickly found the name of Queen's Avenue on the map. From her current location to that place, she probably had to walk through six intersections directly in front and turn right twice.

The early morning wind blew on her face, and she felt chill all over.

She hugged her arms and quickly found the shortest route.

This was not difficult for her. In fact, she memorized the map in front of her just one look.

Her camera-like memories once made her very proud. However, now she only has the face of the dead girl in her mind.

She had to make herself think about something at all times, otherwise that face would always appear in front of her eyes.

"So, go forward two intersections, turn right and left twice, and cross a small river to reach that place."

Another gust of wind blew, and she felt even colder, so she hurried to get on the road.

Walking along the road, Shi Hanrui couldn't help feeling very wronged.

She obviously just wanted to help, but she just wanted to save people. Is this wrong?

"I can't save them..."

In fact, she already understood this in her heart, and just subconsciously wanted to deny it.

"I'd better follow Brother Mo Yun, Brother Huang and Sister Chi, learn more... I won't take any more initiative."

Thinking of this, Shi Hanrui pursed her lips and couldn't help but speed up.

As she accelerated, buildings on both sides of the street hurriedly.

She silently recited the route in her heart and quickly passed through the street corners.

She didn't pay attention to the ordinary bungalows on both sides or small buildings that were several stories high. Some windows shone lights on the road, and she didn't care.

Thinking of the closed window slowly passing by her as she jumped out of the car and stood in the crazy and chaotic crowd, she knew that the brother Huang who rescued her did not agree with her approach and did not intend to help her.

She could tell that he was not the kind of gentle and friendly person.

So, who asked the Chengwei to bring her in? Sister Chi? She should not have the persuasiveness to impress the Chengwei, so there is only Brother Mo.

She is actually not stupid. She can figure out many things with a little thought.

Shi Hanrui quickly walked across a stone bridge, which was very close to the place that the city guard told her. She could probably reach it by walking over a street corner.

She shifted her attention slightly to the box on the left side of her field of vision, and the rankings emerged again.

Although she felt incredible when she saw this box for the first time, she gradually got used to it after seeing it more times.

Her eyes habitually stayed at the top five of the rankings, where two familiar names were already there.

The Soul-Breaking Sword, Mo Yun.

Crazy Dragon Roar, Huang Yingwei.

Originally, they were just two ordinary names, far away from her but strange.

However, when she really knew these two people, the feeling of seeing their names again was completely different from before.

"Brother Huang is already very powerful, but where is Brother Mo Yun?" She recalled the battle scene she saw in the restaurant not long ago.

The sword light, the sword shadow, the transparent air wave, and the sudden strong wind.

This level of battle completely shocked her.

She couldn't imagine that everyone was an evolutionist and an investigator who participated in the survival game, why were they so much better than themselves!

She actually didn't see the specific details of the battle clearly. With her eyesight, she couldn't see clearly who was doing what she was doing, and could only see a group of interlaced figures.

"If I could be as strong as the two of them, I should be able to save that child, right?"

She thought so and walked forward quietly.

Suddenly, her steps paused slightly because she heard some kind of echo from behind her, as if there was someone following her.

She hurriedly turned around, behind her was the empty street, and there was no sign of a person.

Maybe it was my own hallucination.

She walked forward again, and this time, she heard that sound again.

One step, snap.

Two steps, sex.

Shi Hanrui became nervous for no reason. She speeded up, or simply ran away.

This time, her uneasiness became stronger and stronger. The cold feeling that was like a shadow was indeed following her, like the wet cold air in winter, which made her feel trembling all over and a layer of goose bumps on her skin.

She couldn't help but think of the child's face again.

She stopped suddenly and looked behind her, "Who is it? Who is following me?"
