Suddenly, I stopped. It was the feeling of being stared at again.
"What's wrong?" Burg also stopped and turned around to ask.
I lowered my voice and said,"Someone is following us."
This place was rather remote, and it was almost dark, so there were only me and Burg on the road. The enemy was in the dark, while he was in the light. The situation was unfavorable.
"Who are you? Come out!" I shouted loudly!
"Haha! Very alert! No wonder you managed to escape the first two times!”A group of people in black suits slowly walked out.
Burg retreated to my side and asked in a low voice,"They are?"
"They're coming for me!" I didn't even look at him. I kept staring at the person in front of me.
Eight people, twice as many as last time. It seemed that they would not give up until they achieved their goal.
"Brothers, we can't let her escape this time!”The leader, a muscular man with a scar on his face, said.
A lackey behind him stepped forward.""What about the man next to me?”
"Bring it back first and wait for the higher-ups to speak. No matter what, we can't let this little girl run away a third time. Otherwise, we won't be able to survive! Do you understand?"
"Understood!"
"Attack!" Scarface waved his hand.”After saying that, he took the lead and rushed over.
Burg had obviously never seen such a scene before. After regaining his senses, he took a step forward and stood in front of me without batting an eyelid.
Just as I was getting ready to fight, a figure suddenly appeared in front of me. He was slightly stunned, and the corners of his mouth curled into a faint smile. In a flash, he stood in front of Duren Burg.
" Murong..." Burg pressed his hand on my shoulder, his voice full of worry.
I smiled confidently at him.”
Burg hesitantly put down his hand, but his face was still full of worry.
I turned around and looked at the group of people who were charging at me. Suddenly, my eyes widened and my face was filled with panic. My fingers trembled as I pointed behind them and shouted,"What's that?"
The group of people were shocked by my shout and stopped in their tracks to look back.
The corners of my mouth curled up. My figure flashed and I dashed in front of the scarred man. I stretched out my leg and kicked him directly in the crotch. Before they could react, he immediately turned around and pulled Duren Burg away.
A wail that soared to the sky came from behind him, as well as a voice that was enduring the pain and almost trembling.
" Give, me, chase…absolutely, can't, let her escape…"
Pulling Duren Burg along, he turned left and right, running through narrow and small alleys. The people behind him chased after him relentlessly. Suddenly, I heard a clear click in the midst of messy footsteps and heavy breathing. It was the sound of the safety of a pistol being pulled! Not good, they wanted to shoot! He didn't have time to think. Pulling Burg along, he turned around and disappeared into a dark alley.
"Bang!" Gunshots rang out, breaking the silence of the night.
He felt Duren Burg's footsteps stop for a moment. He turned around and met a pair of ice-blue eyes that were filled with shock. The people behind them immediately caught up, and there was no time to explain. I turned around and pulled him along to speed up. Burg tightened his grip on my hand and hastened his pace without saying a word.
After making a few more turns, they finally put some distance between them and those people. The sky was getting darker and darker, and the road was gradually becoming unclear. I pulled Duren Burg and tried my best to run to places without lights. They had pistols in their hands. The more invisible they were, the more advantageous it was for us.
Although the alleyways were narrow and long, they were accessible in all directions. Of course, there were also many dead ends. We've encountered one right now!
"What should we do?" Burg asked me while panting heavily.
I looked around and replied decisively,"Up the wall!"
He could faintly hear the shouts of those people.
Burg ran to the wall and said,"Hurry up, I'll help you up!"”
"There's no time to crawl slowly. Just jump!”He came to Duren Burg's side and hugged him by the waist. Then, he jumped up and flew onto the three-meter-high wall. He jumped down again and landed steadily on the other side of the wall.
Burg and I leaned against the wall and listened to the voice on the other side of the wall. We didn't even dare to breathe loudly.
"Where did those two go?”
"I clearly saw them running here just now. Why did they suddenly disappear?”
"It's like this again. Is that girl Veiled Spirit? Damn it…"
"Could he have climbed the wall and escaped?"
Burg and I looked at each other nervously. We were so scared that we stopped breathing!
"Idiot, how is that possible? How could he climb over such a tall wall in such a short time?”
"I'm sorry…"
"Then, where did those two guys go?”
"He can't have run far. Hurry up and find him. He definitely couldn't let that detestable brat off!”Hearing the voice of the scarred man, I couldn't help but twitch my lips. Didn't I just kick you? You're really vengeful. I haven't even said that you shot me!
He turned to look at Duren Burg and realized that his expression had also stiffened.
The sound behind the wall gradually faded away until the surroundings returned to silence.
He let out a long sigh of relief and turned to smile at Duren Burg."Your tennis club's training is very good! Your stamina is not bad!"
It was obvious that the corner of his mouth twitched.
"Those people aren't ordinary hooligans, right? How did you offend those people?"
"I don't know either, but ever since I came back from the Atobe family, those people have been targeting me.”
Burg frowned and lowered his head after hearing my words. No one knew what he was thinking.
I stood up from the wall and said with a relaxed expression,"Now that we've gotten rid of those people, I'll send you home first!”
"Send me home?" Burg was a little surprised.
"If you go back now and they find out, even if you're alone, they won't let you off. If we go together, we can split up if we encounter them!”
"Why didn't you call the police?" Burg looked at me worriedly.
"Huh?"
"Why didn't you tell the police that you were being chased? It would be safer with the protection of the police!”
"Those people just now were all dressed in black. I don't have to think to know that if they aren't bodyguards from some family, they must be in the underworld. Moreover, it was not easy to get a pistol in Japan! Therefore, even if the police were informed of this matter, it would probably not be of much use. It might even infuriate those people.”
"Why did those people want to kill you? Have you offended any big families?”
"I don't know. However, there aren't many big families that can be related to me. I'll think of a way to investigate! I've implicated you this time. Before this matter is resolved, it's better for us not to interact. It's already dark. If you don't go back now, your family will be worried.”
After asking for the address of the Burg's house, I closed my eyes and thought about the route map of the surrounding area. I tried to avoid the roads that those people might take.
"This way!" He waved his hand, signaling for Duren Burg to follow him.
After making a few turns in the alley, they passed through a park. As long as they climbed over a wall not far ahead, they would not be far from the Burg Family.
He was still hugging Duren Burg and jumping onto the wall, wanting to jump down.
"Hurry up and look around."
Oh no, they were chasing after him.
A group of men in black walked past the wall, looked around, and continued to search in front. Burg and I hung on the other side of the wall and looked at each other. That was close!
Hiding in a dark corner, she looked at the house opposite her with the sign of 'Fujiya' on it.
"Burg, we're here. Go back quickly!”
Burg looked at me with a complicated expression."Are you okay alone? Those people don't look like they'll let you off easily.”
I smiled at him." Don't worry. I'm good at escaping. Those people can't catch me!”
"Why don't you stay at my house tonight?"”
I quickly shook my head." No, this will implicate you and your family." I just need to escape home. My home is very safe. They won't be able to find me!”
Burg was silent for a while before he finally nodded."Then you must be careful!"
"Yes! I will!"
I only turned around to leave when I saw him enter the house. After taking a few steps, I felt someone looking at me from behind. I turned around and saw Burg standing on the second floor, looking at me from the window. I smiled and waved at him, then ran away without looking back.
He walked to a corner where there was no one around, activated his qinggong, and directly flew back home from the roof.
Although it was already autumn, he was still sweating after running for so long. After casually eating something, she took her clothes and went to the backyard to soak in the hot spring.
The warm spring water slowly flowed through his skin, making him feel relaxed unconsciously. I leaned my head against the fake rock and quietly recalled what happened today. Although I knew that those people were coming for me, I didn't expect them to kill me directly. They didn't even let off innocent people. If Burg was really captured by them, he probably wouldn't have a good ending. He might even be silenced because of this matter. I definitely can't let this happen. I can't implicate the people around me because of myself. Looks like I can't be passive anymore. I have to start counterattacking.
