Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Su Su had been running outside for the entire day and had exhausted all her energy. She was indeed famished. When the waiter served the dishes, she began to eat in big mouthfuls.
“Eat slowly. There’s no rush.” Su Jun watched Su Su eat gently as he poured her some water to drink.
On the other hand, Su Qiao blamed himself too hard and kept reflecting on himself to the extent that he could not eat.
After eating, the group went home. As Su Su was too tired, she fell asleep in the car.
When she woke up, it was already midnight.
Su Su quickly got out of bed and found that her hands and feet had been washed. Her dress remained unchanged because it was inconvenient, but it was also cleaned up. It was evident that her brother had taken care of her.
The old-fashioned phone that she had originally kept in her pocket was now placed at the front of the bed, with no sign that anyone had touched it.
Su Su took the old phone. After she unlocked it, the screen was no different from an ordinary phone. It was a classic menu interface. However, after Su Su entered a few lines of code, an audio recording that filtered out the noise was played.
After a series of phone rings, a man’s voice sounded somewhat indistinct. “Where did you put her?”
Although it was a little unclear, Su Su still recognized him. He was the man who restrained her from behind at the haunted house! He seemed to be the leader of the other two guys.
“Boss, we put her in the trunk. She’s with the kid from the Luo family that we caught,” the man named Brother Biao replied.
“Mm, then we can handle it together. Do it cleanly. The pay is excellent. Master will look for you next time he has something to do.”
“Yes, Boss, don’t worry!” Brother Biao promised.
After the call was hung up, a hoarse male voice asked curiously, “Was it this family that looked for us last time?”
“Don’t ask what you shouldn’t ask! They are big shots. You can’t afford to offend them. So you better keep your mouth shut. Have you heard of the Bai family? If you betray them, they will dig you up even if you die in the grave!”
“Oh, I got it, Brother Biao.” The hoarse voice responded a few times. Then, the audio was left with the sound of sirens and the whistling of the wind.
Su Su turned off her phone. Her little hand supported her chin as she frowned.
The only people caught by the police were these two lackeys. Their boss, who had once appeared in the haunted house, had never shown up since then. Su Su had not even seen his face.
However, to obtain evidence of the Bai family’s crimes, it was useless to rely on two men who were willing to work for money. It is crucial to find their boss and the mastermind behind the scenes.
Thinking of this, Su Su sighed and got out of bed. Since she was free, she would have to entertain Su Ren, who was doing back things behind her back.
After Su Ren returned from the amusement park, she was in an exceptionally good mood. However, because she had consumed too much energy acting in the amusement park during the day, she lazily hid in her room and went to bed early as soon as she returned home. Therefore, she did not know that Su Su had already returned home.
However, in her dreams, she always felt that someone was gently knocking on her bed board. The sound of the knocks kept echoing in her ears.
Suddenly, Su Ren woke up from her dream and wiped the sweat off her forehead. Then, just as she was about to get up to go to the toilet, she realized that the sound from her dream had actually clearly appeared in her ears!
Knock, knock, knock…
What was knocking? Su Ren was shocked. Her head stiffened as she looked around, but she did not find anything unusual.
Then, the knocking stopped abruptly. And just when Su Ren was relieved and thought that it was an illusion caused by her nervousness, she suddenly heard a whisper in her ear, accompanied by a malicious laugh. “Hehe, I’m underneath you.”
Su Li felt her scalp go numb. What on earth had entered her room?
As if seeing Su Ren’s stiff body not moving, the voice beside her ear urged, “Get off the bed and take a look. Look at me, and you’ll like it very much.”
Su Ren was so scared that her entire body was covered in sweat. At this moment, she felt her whole body turn cold. This strange atmosphere made her not dare to move at all. Instead, she nervously closed her eyes.
She closed her eyes and waited for an unknown amount of time. Then, just when Su Ren thought that this strange sound had disappeared, she quietly opened her eyes a little.
What she saw was a pair of bloodshot eyes that were extremely wide open. Her face was pale, and her lips were gray with blood— it was Su Su!
Su Su was covered in blood. There was even a deep knife mark on her neck. Su Su was smiling strangely as she stared at her.
“Su Ren, you made me so miserable....” The ethereal voice said in Su Ren’s ear again.
