Chapter 619 - The Second Episode (2/2)
It was a document that didn’t belong to her.
Xiang Wan felt strange but opened it nonetheless.
The title of the document was horrifying—The Second Episode of the Murderer’s Script.
Good grief!
Her ears were ringing and her mind went blank.
She stared intently at the document that appeared out of nowhere in her Pages app.
…
The building was like a maze.
She was running as fast as she could. As she ran, she looked around her surroundings…
She seemed to be looking for something, her eyes were full of panic.
Oh, she was looking for a kid.
Just an hour ago, she received a message. Someone asked her to come here.
If she was any slower, that kid would have become a corpse.
Yes, it was a kid.
She ran like crazy. Even though she was weary from all the running, she didn’t dare to stop.
“Where are you? Where are you?”
She was shouting and she could see nothing.
“… Call the police! Maybe I should call the police!” she was thinking.
“No, I can’t!” she immediately refuted the idea.
The kid would die.
If she called the police, the kid would die…
She could only find the kid on her own…
Before he dies…
This was the challenge!
The lights of the building were very dim and a lot of places were pitch dark. She was holding a flashlight and would often stumble and fall then get back up again repeatedly…
The corridor was long and she was climbing the stairs on all fours. Her feet were grazed and her hands scraped, yet she seemed to feel no pain.
Just keep on looking!
Find the kid!
I must find the kid! she thought.
In the darkness, she could only hear her own panting…
Gasping helplessly and a strong feeling of dread!
But, she had not managed to find the kid.
She had not found the kid—
Where? Where is the kid?
Only the surrounding darkness answered her…
She looked around in horror. The light beam from the flashlight seemed faint as it was enveloped in shadow.
“Hey kid… where are you?… where are you…?”
Her feet finally carried her over the last flight of stairs.
It was the rooftop.
She had arrived at the rooftop.
The howling sounds of the wind felt ominous, as if demons were calling out to her.
A small figure was not far away from her. He was standing on the edge of the roof, teetering on unsteady legs as if he would fall down any moment…
“Don’t move!” she sprinted to the boy in joy.
She saw hope.
She could save him!
She almost succeeded.
Yet the moment she rushed towards him, the little kid’s small body plunged rapidly down from the edge of the roof.
“NO!”
Only her shrill scream was heard in the strong winds on the rooftop!
Under the moonlight, her face was as pale as a sheet of paper.
Her face could be seen clearly.
Finally, she could be seen clearly.
She was… oh, Xie Wanwan.
It was Xie Wanwan. It was her!
