Chapter 72 (1/2)
”Hey, there's a convenience store It looks shabby” Fatty said, ”Let's go shopping, beers, soft drinks and other stuff The destination on the h we are not here for holiday, we should get e need over there”
”You fat ass! You really are preparing to enjoy the stay! Let's just go check out what the store has for us I've just found a wallet here, there's no identification, but there's soh”
”Great”
Fatty pulled over by the store and got off
Ego also got out of the car Seeing Su Bai still sitting in the car, he asked with doubt,
”What?”
”I think I'll stay outside, just on guard”
”Everything has just started, what can possibly happen?” Ego felt a little confused, but he didn't go into it seriously, just nodded, ”Alright, you stay here and keep an eye on the car I'll go shopping with Fatty”
Ego and Fatty went to the store while Su Bai lowered his head a little He was thinking what he should do To follow the pattern before, or to start Main Task 1 right now? For now, Su Bai didn't have much clue He didn't know the real identity of that black-haired girl; Sophia should be still with her friends before she really entered the task
But there was another key reason why Su Bai stayed in the car instead of going shopping as he had done last time
The poster!
Su Bai could remember their conversation: Fatty asked why there was a poster at the back of their car, and Ego replied it looked like bad luck and should be torn off
This tiot in the car, Su Bai had checked it personally and there was no poster
And that meant, someone had sneaked by and put a poster of ”Final Destination” on the car when they were in the store last time
Su Bai couldn't tell if that person atching here in the darkness all the time, or if that person would decide not to co he was not in the store But he had no other clue, so he could only hope more clues would coot
After all, since main task 1 requested thes and clues concerning these audiences should be related to that river source
Su Bai kept his head lowered in silence, but he never let down his guard
Suddenly, a tiny rustle came to him
He immediately pushed the door open and rushed to behind the car
Just then, a knife was thrown to Su Bai in a curve
Su Bai lowered his head at once; the knife went over his head and stuck into the earth
Then a person jumped down from the car and rushed to another direction
Su Bai went after that person without hesitation The figure wasn't clear It , so it looked rather obscure from behind; he even couldn't tell if it was male or female But luckily, the person wasn't very fast, so the distance between the the chase
Soon, they entered the woods At last, the person seeet rid of Su Bai, so the person turned around and shoo cold lights in both hands It ers Then the person came at Su Bai
Even till now, Su Bai still couldn't tell if that person was an audience or a resident in the woods But after that person got closer, he finally kneho he had met He hmphed heavily, then his body wizened and becae was rapid and was completed in a flash
”Clang!”
”Clang!”
The two daggers hit Su Bai's arms and sounded likehis skin The daggers never actually touched his skin
Then, Su Bai abruptly turned his wrists, grabbed the daggers and pushed with both aro of the weapon and stepped back
