Chapter 1307 Chaos (1/2)
It was too late to make the decision to return to the village, however.
The fog was thick, and there were no roads on the island. They had randomly selected a direction, driving into the wild. Therefore, if they wanted to return, it would be difficult for them to retrace their path. Although their SUVs had surely left traces on the road, how could they find them in the fog?
Driver took a deep breath and said, ”I might remember the way.”
Li Du looked at him and asked, ”You saw that too, didn't you? You saw the damn monster, too?”
Driver didn't answer. He frowned, took out a cigarette, lit it and smoked beside the car.
Li Du looked at Steve again and said, ”Hey, man, make up your mind.”
Steve shook his head. ”Wait and see.”
After hearing this, Li Du's furiously smashed his fist into the car hood and shouted, ”Wait and see what happens? You are telling me to wait and see? Just stay here and wait for the monster to find us?”
Steve was furious too and snapped, ”So why don't you tell me what to do? Why don't you take your gun and shoot it?”
”That sounds like something you'd enjoy doing,” Li Du stretched his hand and took a gun from Brother Wolf, offering it to Steve. ”Anyway, you always want to find some sort of mystical creature, whether it's the Siberian yeti or a deep sea evil spirit, so killing it would satisfy your ambition, wouldn't it?”
Steve shoved him and said angrily, ”Calm down! What are you doing now? What the hell is wrong with you? F**k you!”
Li Du retorted, ”Am I wrong? I seem to recall it very clearly! Am I not telling the truth? Haven't you always wanted to find a monster in your adventures?”
Steve threw up his arms and roared, ”There can't be any monsters in the world that science hasn't found! Humans have long since explored the earth totally!”
Li Du sneered. ”No monsters, huh? And no unknown left on the planet?”
Then he slowly shook his head. ”No, Steve, the earth still has parts that are unknown to humankind. There are monsters here. I've seen them before, and I know…”
Here, he remembered to shut his mouth. He was afraid that if he continued to speak he would let out the secret of the time-space bug. He knew he must not say a thing about it; this was a secret he had to keep.
Nevertheless, he had an urge to reveal the secret that lay deep in his heart.
The thought was instinctive; it was hard to keep a secret, but he still had his wits about him, he knew he must never to speak of the little bug to anyone.
Just as he was struggling with his thoughts, Little Ford intervened. He came up and pushed past Li Du and Steve who were standing close together. He shouted, ”Stop barking at each other, you idiots! Look out there. I just saw that monster again. Are you going to fight among yourselves? We must all work together now against that monster!”
”It'd impossible,” Andrey said in terror. ”The devil of the deep sea is invincible. Why did we encounter it? How can it really exist?”
His emotions became uncontrollable and he pounced on Steve, saying, ”It's your fault. It's all because of you. I did say we should listen to that old man. We shouldn't have risked venturing out in this fog!”
Hearing the aggression in his voice, Steve's bodyguards intercepted him and someone kicked him over. Steve got up, pulled Andrey to him by the collar, and shouted, ”F**k it, you damn Russian, shut your mouth!”
Elson and Hankway came up to pull them apart, and after getting free of Steve's grip, Andrey got up and staggered back down the road, mumbling something in Russian.
The fog was thick, and soon his figure looked blurry.
