“Mommy…”
Youyou continued to search the crowd. He tried to look in every direction for fear of missing out on anything. However, just as he was heading deeper into the crowd, he heard a sound “da da da’. Nearby, the gunman was hiding in the dark and shooting at the crowd non-stop.
Swish! Youyou felt the bullet whizz past his hair. In the next second, he felt the splatter of warm blood across his face! The bullet had mercilessly drilled its way through the neck of a woman beside him. The woman fell to the ground in an instant. Youyou, who was standing beside her, quickly threw
himself onto her!
“Ahhhhhh…” Startled, the boy felt the world spin as a heavy body fell onto him. He pushed with all his might, but the woman’s body gradually turned cold. As he pushed her, her head turned over, so that he saw a pair of hollow, unseeing eyes staring back at him!
As the event was too sudden, her expression was one of panic still, as the bullet hit her. There was no sign of life on her. His face was as pale as a sheet, and those black eyes seemed like an endless abyss that could engulf him up at any moment!
A bloody hole could be seen on her neck. The bullet had made a gaping wound. Blood gushed angrily onto her body continually. It was sticky and warm with a metallic smell!
Youyou was so frightened that he could not speak. It wasn’t as though he had never seen a dead body, but he’d never been so close to a corpse. One could even see how helpless, lost, and uneasy she was just before she died!
Youyou struggled a little, but didn’t have the strength to push the corpse away no matter how hard he tried. He was suffocating!
“Mommy…” He was extremely worried that Yun Shishi and Mu Yazhe would meet with misfortune at this time! He had no idea how long the shooting would last, or how many bullets the hidden killer had! He only knew that the crowd in the plaza was retreating like locusts, trampling on his hand from
time to time.
Youyou curled up into a ball and mustered all his strength to push the corpse away before shakily getting onto his feet!
Amidst the chaos, Youyou was suddenly plunged into silence!
There was a ringing in his ear, like the sound of a flatline.
Beep—
Beep—
He turned and looked around again. He looked at every terrified face and studied those uneasy expressions. From time to time, someone would fall and never stand up again.
It was a living hell!
For some reason, he felt an inexplicable sense of guilt!
She was dead
Shot to death!
Youyou lowered his head to look at his hands before clenching them tightly and charging into the crowd again.
“Mommy!”
“Youyou!”
Amidst the noisy shouting, he suddenly heard a familiar voice, hysterical, almost breaking.
It was her! It was Yun Shishi!
The boy was overwhelmed by emotions and threw his manners aside as he pushed through the crowd and shouted, “Mommy! Where are you?!”
His voice was drowned out once more. Maybe his voice hadn’t reached her at all. However, at least one thing was certain. She was still in the plaza among the crowd!
Why didn’t she leave!?
This place was dangerous!
