Chapter 47: Wu Yu 07 (2)


    I had no time to think, and an impulse that felt like a cold me overfilled my heart.


    Zhu Fengxian must not know that there were people in the world willing to give anything to get their loved ones back yet could not. I would give anything to have them back. Even if they were ill or injured, I would bear the heaviest burdens just to have them beside me.


    Lowering my face, I saw Tan Jiaos calm eyes that looked sad as well.


    The impulse in my heart abruptly subsided upon this sight. <em>Perhaps I should stay away from her so that I dont lose her. But shes trapped in this mystery as well I should protect her.</em>


    While these thoughts shed across my mind, Zhu Shuyuns voice sounded again; I have nothing and I want nothing but to k-kill you all All that a-abandoned me. Thatdy b-boss of that store who promised m-mother to look after me, went to y cards Ive k-killed her and Xiaolong. Brother Xiaolong who was ying with me ran away when I got abducted Hes dead as well. When I kill you lot Zhu Shuyun will be free from hatred and be h-happy.


    <em>He has already killed two people?</em> I thought to myself afterprehending his stuttery speech.


    Tan Jiao gently pulled on my shirt abruptly before muttering, Ive seen news articles about those two people.


    Raising my face, I saw that Zhu Shuyun had aimed the handgun at the Zhu family with a stern look on his face. <em>I cant watch on as he kills someone. I promised myself that I wouldnt allow anyone to die in front of me.</em>


    I lowered my voice to carefully instruct Tan Jiao to note out no matter what. However, as soon as I said that, she grabbed onto my shirt and shook her head as if her life depended on it. I let out a smile beforeforting her. Stay here, great author. I must stop him. I cant allow the innocent to die in front of me. Let me go.


    She gradually rxed her hands as she gazed at me with a bitter and somewhat unwilling smile on her face. I must admit that I liked that understanding look from her.


    I grabbed a rock and sprang up from the ground, rushing toward Zhu Shuyun. Perhaps he was intoxicated from the high of the excitement, so hepletely failed to notice me. Although the birds around the area noticed me and quickly pped their wings and called out, it was toote.


    With only two or three steps, I was already close enough to strike Zhu Shuyun on the head. Unfortunately, thetter snapped his head around in shock at the critical moment. He took a step back, causing the strike to only graze his head beforending heavily on his chest. A cry of shock echoed from the pit as Zhu Shuyun fell to the ground and aimed the gun at me. I instinctively ducked down. Simultaneously, I heard a loud <em>Bang!</em> right beside me.


    I was not hit, but my heart was pounding in my ear, apanied by a ring. Grabbing his hand that held the gun, I tussled with him for the gun vigorously.


    The birds came at me soon after and pecked at my face and hands. Although I was able to catch Zhu Shuyun off guard and injure him, I had lost that advantage now that the birds were attacking me.


    At some point in time, Tan Jiao had run out to help me. I realized this when I noticed the birds abruptly leaving Zhu Shuyun and I. From the corner of my eye, I saw a person wearing a blue camisole top. They had a T-shirt wrapped around their head with a gap just enough for their eyes. It was an extremely funny scene.


    She held an oilmp with her left hand while swinging a stick dramatically, attracting almost all of the birds to her in an instant like a swarm of bees. Then she threw the oilmp to the ground ahead at the veryst moment, creating a wall of me instantly. The birds scatter in all directions, terrified.


    Immediately, my heart brimmed with a warm feeling. She was smart to use the fire and was impressive to have decisively taken action to help me. After all, she was only a delicate girl.
