Chapter 289 - Blacks Part One (1/2)

Sara did not want to digress and tell Muchen about Jin Cearo's mother being Fuji's sister since he did not know who Fuji was yet. So she continued with her narration.

She believed he could only understand better if she told him all he needed to know about that group of people.

When she saw the thugs looking at her, she quickly picked herself up and began to run back.

The country was so cold so most people stayed indoors, especially at nights like that when it was snowing, even though it was mild.

She did not turn back, but she knew they were chasing after her, and could also hear their footsteps.

At that point, she thought it was going to be her end if she did not escape from them.

She had just witnessed a murder scene and those people were also chasing after her.

The voices returned to her head and reminded her of what had happened that night. She heard the man's creepy laugh and her mind flashed back to how he had hit her countlessly and tore her clothes.

The psychological trauma was still too much for her no matter how much she tried.

She then remembered how she had stabbed his eye. And the voices continued to haunt her, telling her how she was a murderer and deserved to die in the hands of murderers.

She was frightened and closed her eyes while she ran for her dear life with tears running down from her eyes down to her cheeks and out of sight.

She had always been a good runner so it was not a big deal for her to run. But the problem was, the people were really fast, plus the voices in her head was not making it easy for her.

She knew no where to run to except the hotel which was at the opposite direction. She was not even concerned about the cold. All she needed to do was to hide somewhere.

She thought she saw the glimpse of a young girl and was relieved to finally see someone to help her call the police or something but when she checked again, she did not see anyone. And her hope crashed.

Unfortunately for her, she came to a dead end.

It was a wooden bridge which enabled people cross over to the other side since there was a river at the bottom.

She had been running to the other side when about three men appeared in front of her.

When she turned around to run back, she saw two men at the other side.

One of which was Snake. Then, he was in his twenties and looked more haggard than he was looking now. The four other men were also around their twenties to thirties.

Snake was the one who first spoke to her while she looked at all of them with a terrified expression.

”You are really a good runner” He commended.

”Please let me go. I did not see anything.” She pleaded as tears continued to flow down her cheeks.

It looked like they all pitied her until one spoke.

”We should get rid of her. She saw us and it is going to be bad if Fuji found out that we let her go on purpose” The man beside Snake tried to convince them to get rid of her.

”Please let me go. I won't say anything I swear”

She knelt down and held Snake's foot and continued to beg him since it seemed like he was the one in charge.

But his face was dark and expressionless.

He squatted to meet her height and used a hand to lift her chin so she could look into his dark eyes.

”You had to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. How unfortunate”

Snake signalled for them to get rid of her but a call came in immediately.

”Fuji asked to bring her to the base” He said to the others and they looked at him in surprise.

”Fuji? That should be worse for her. Poor Lady” Another chipped in.

When Sara saw the look on all their faces, she knew that meeting that 'Fuji' was worse than death.

As two other men tried to grab her, she quickly dashed to the side of the bridge and held the rope.

”If you come close to me, I'll kill myself.”

She threatened in fear.

”We wanted to kill you and you pleaded for your life. Now we're saving you and you want to die?” Snake asked in a cold voice and used a hand to signal for her to move away from there.

”Come over here little girl. You might really fall”

Sara knew they were not going to let her be. And when Snake asked the men to grab her, she did not know how it happened, but the only thing she could remember was that she felt her body hit the ice cold water.
