Chapter 16: The Murderer
I put away my knife and walked through the woods, feeling a little heavy. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoIf it weren't for this sudden discovery, I really don't know what to do next.
There was silence in the woods, and only I, tired and lonely, walked through them. I was tired and hungry, and I didn't know how far I had to walk to get back to my dorm.
Suddenly, there was a rustling sound ahead, as if someone was there. Immediately I cheered up, bent on my waist, and crept forward.
Could it be a fawn? He's looking for me? I prayed in my heart, still cautiously approaching, for fear that I would encounter any more danger, after all, I did not know whether the other party was friend or foe.
Slowly, the target approached, and by the hazy moonlight, I saw a figure crouching there, and I didn't know what was on the ground, because it was too far away for me to distinguish clearly.
I think I could have come closer, and if he was a fawn, it would have been a great joy for all; If not, then the one who sneaks around in the woods in the middle of the night must not be a good kind, and then I will have to see the opportunity.
I didn't know what the real danger meant, and I was numb to the fear of the whole night, and I was indifferent to what the danger was. I approached step by step, not daring to startle the snake.
When I saw what was on the ground, I was so frightened that I almost fainted. There was a man lying there, almost covered in blood, motionless, and the figure I had seen crouching next to the man, with his back to me, and I could not make out who they were.
Is the fawn there? Whoever is a fawn between the two of them, I probably can't accept it. If it was a fawn lying down, he must be in danger; If it was a fawn squatting, did he kill the man on the ground? I can't accept such a situation, it's better that none of them are fawns!
I stood there and didn't know what to do, if it was a fawn lying on the ground, I should go up to save him, if they weren't fawns, I would probably be sent to death if I went so rashly. For a moment, I couldn't make up my mind.
In the midst of my hesitation, the crouching man turned his head. A familiar face appeared in front of my eyes, and for a moment, I felt like my entire worldview had collapsed!
I can't put into words how I felt at this time, I will never forget that face for the rest of my life, he was four-eyed!
In a trance, I unconsciously took a few steps back, only to see him staring at me with a bloody face, and the dagger in his hand exuded a sinful aura in the darkness!
I was so frightened that I didn't have time to react when I saw him stand up, dagger in hand, and chase after me with a fierce look. I immediately came back to my senses, and I didn't care if the people on the ground were deer or not, so I turned around and ran.
Although I was almost at the limit of my strength after a long night of running in the woods, in the face of death, an instinctive desire to survive caused me to burst out all my athletic potential.
I ran forward as hard as I could, my mind was blank, I didn't have time to think about anything, only to live was my goal. I bet I'm running as fast as World Champion Usain Bolt at this point!
Along the way, I didn't dare to look back, and I didn't know if Four Eyes had caught up. I'm afraid that the moment I look back and see the four eyes will be the last nostalgia I have for this world before I die.
I don't know how long I ran, until I collapsed to the ground from exhaustion, I gave up the struggle, closed my eyes tightly, and waited for the final judgment of death. Now, I couldn't see anything, only my labored gasps and the sound of footsteps getting closer.
It finally came, and I waited for the moment when he wielded his dagger. There is no fear, no heartbeat, as if everything is at peace. I remembered the dream I had that night, the young man in red, Momo to be precise, woke up the moment she swung her scythe at me. It's a pity that I can't wake up again this time.
After a long wait, everything was still calm. Am I already dead? Is death like this, without any pain? Will I be able to see my heavenly Father? Or will my soul wander the world?
I slowly opened my eyes, and there was silence all around, and the moonlight shone on the trunks of the trees around me, and the stars lit up the sky. I seem to be alive! I tugged at my face and the pain was real, too real to be true!
Looking around, I didn't find any trace of Four Eyes, it seems that he didn't catch up, was I too scared?! I felt a tremble when I thought of my bloodstained eyes, and that scene was just too terrible, too bloody!
Because I couldn't run, I sat on the ground motionless, but I still didn't let my guard down.
Isn't Four-Eyed already dead, how could he suddenly appear? Xiaolu also said that day that Four Eyes died in the early hours of the morning, but we saw Four Eyes that morning, and now I see it again, is he really a ghost?! Whether it's the dead Four-Eyes or the Living Four-Eyes, now I see them clearly, and I can't understand them anyway!
I sat in horror, and this night, I felt that I had experienced the greatest test of my life, and it could even be said that my consciousness was subverted! First my best buddy Xiaolu disappeared, then I found out that Momo was the boy in red, and then I bumped into Four-Eyes, who was supposed to die, squatting on the ground to kill people, and being chased and killed by him, these experiences were enough to break me!
You can't sit back like this! I have to go back quickly, find Momo, understand everything clearly, and then find a way to save the deer, although I know that he should be more than lucky now, but there is still hope, I must persevere. I kept praying in my heart that it couldn't be a deer lying there!
I struggled to get up, and the pain and exertional physical strength all over my body made me feel like I was in hell. I walked slowly, and though I couldn't tell the direction anymore, I was confident that I could get out, and it would be better than sitting there.
The ensuing process was quite long, and because I was extremely slow, I didn't actually walk much at all. Pain, hunger, tiredness, and fear were constantly haunting my mind, and how I wished that the fawn would suddenly appear and say to me: everything is all right! But the reality is cruel, in times of crisis, no one can help themselves, only strong can survive.
Suddenly, I felt something hit me on the head, and my eyes went black, and I fainted......
