Chapter 85: Was it Murder?

Then, she heard a series of "bang bang" sounds, a bit like fireworks, but upon careful listening, they didn't seem to be, they sounded like gunshots from a TV!

She had never imagined that one day she too would hear gunfire!

Beyond the shock was fear, she didn't dare to peek out again but instead shrank back, clinging tightly behind the hill, not daring to move an inch.

She wondered how Gu Wei was doing.

Could he have gotten into trouble by himself?

Several times she thought about going out to look, but she worried it might drag him down.

When she was a child watching TV dramas, there were always some altruistic women who, despite being in the middle of a hail of bullets, insisted on rushing out to save a little rabbit or a child, resulting in a whole squad dying because of her.

All she could do was to listen to his advice and hide here obediently.

About half an hour later, the gunfire stopped, and it seemed even the wind had ceased, leaving the outside world eerily silent.
