Chapter 1136 - 1139: It Must Be a Ghost (Part 1)
Chapter 1136: Chapter 1139: It Must Be a Ghost (Part 1)
"That really was incredibly bold!" Lin Xi muttered as he followed behind.
Although there weren’t many people around here now,
it wasn’t a very secluded place; there were even cameras along the road.
For these people to dare act like this, they either had immense power or astonishing backgrounds.
No, Lin Xi glanced at the camera and realized it seemed to be broken.
Their audacity was certainly commendable.
Cars still occasionally passed by.
In under two minutes, the two cars would likely be discovered.
By then, someone would definitely call the police, and they’d arrive soon after.
But by then, those people would probably have vanished from this area.
Lin Xi trailed them unhurriedly, noticing they didn’t appear nervous at all.
From their expressions, he could tell these people were definitely used to doing this sort of thing.
That made things interesting!
Lin Xi sneered, a glint of murderous intent flashing across his face, as if he had figured something out.
The three ahead may be strong, but compared to Lin Xi, they were like insignificant debris.
Even though Lin Xi wasn’t far from them, they couldn’t detect him at all.
Though this wasn’t entirely their fault; not even the Peak Soldier King would notice Lin Xi if he intended to stay hidden.
From the headquarters of the Dark Dragon Club, it was evident Lin Xi’s skills in stealth and infiltration weren’t inferior to theirs.
Still, with his formidable strength, he generally didn’t deign to involve himself in such matters.
Today, he could rescue people at any time.
Yet he decided to wait and see.
Because he had uncovered something that made him very angry.
The narrow path was winding and relatively long.
Looking ahead, one couldn’t see the end.
Were they actually heading to the mountaintop?
Even now, there would still be some people at the top.
Sure enough, in the next moment, the group in front turned and started heading downward.
"Another path?"
Lin Xi continued to follow.
It was completely the opposite direction from where they had come.
Were they planning to head down another way?
But the other direction was still part of the mountain loop.
Lin Xi didn’t overthink it nor stopped them; he wasn’t in a hurry!
Moreover, the murderous intent within him was growing stronger.
Soon enough, Lin Xi saw a road ahead; it seemed like the one he had passed earlier.
By the roadside, a Hummer was parked.
The three forcibly brought Karen into the car, quickly turned around, and drove back.
After the car disappeared from sight, Lin Xi also arrived at the road without looking anxious.
Down the mountain, the young taxi driver who had just driven Lin Xi was recounting something to the police from two patrol cars with a look of terror.
The police quickly got into their cars, paying little heed to the taxi driver, and hurriedly drove up the mountain.
The taxi driver’s terror seemed to dissipate slightly.
Of course, he was the one who called the police.
He hadn’t gone far after turning back before he made the call.
Next, he waited for the police and briefly told them what had happened.
"Let’s go!"
He said softly to himself. Although he had earned quite some money today, it was far too dangerous.
He secretly vowed that he would never get involved in such matters again.
No matter how much money there is, if you lose your life, there’s no use for money.
After all, he had seen with his own eyes the car crash directly into the barrier.
Luckily, they were next to the mountain.
If it had been a cliff, someone would definitely have died.
And those three seemingly gentlemanly men, how could they be so cruel?
He also mentioned Lin Xi to the police.
Because he felt that even if Lin Xi wasn’t a bad person, he definitely wasn’t a good person.
If he were a good person, he would have called the police much earlier.
After all, Lin Xi was the one who called him to follow.
The taxi driver couldn’t help but ponder: did that young man who rode in his car know what would happen afterward?
Thinking of this, he felt a chill down his spine.
Nowadays, young people are really not to be messed with!
As he whispered these words, he didn’t even realize he was young himself.
"Hmm?"
He paused.
Because just then, he heard a "bang!"
Though not loud nor heavy, it was very clear.
He turned around and saw a familiar figure abruptly appear less than two meters behind him.
"This person?"
His face instantly turned pale!
Wasn’t this the young man he just drove?
How did he get here?
This place was quite far from where they had just come from.
And he hadn’t seen anyone nearby just a moment ago.
Plus, there were no cars passing by here.
Suddenly, panic set in!
Could he have encountered a ghost?
In this era, quite a few people in Xiangjiang are still superstitious about such things.
This was evident from their unique culture.
With all the ghost and zombie movies popular, especially among those with lower education levels, disbelief seemed foolish.
This taxi driver wasn’t very old, clearly a dropout.
In the next moment, he didn’t hesitate at all and dashed into his car.
Next, he planned to hit the gas and leave immediately.
Yes, the further away from this person or ghost, the better.
However, glancing at the rear-view mirror, he didn’t see anyone there.
A chill ran through him, "...."
Could he have been seeing things?
Or was it really a ghost?
But it was broad daylight!
He must have been seeing things!
If not, where did the person go?
Thinking this, his mind immediately went to movies.
According to movie plots, the figure should be in the back seat of his car.
Uh...
A shiver ran through him, and he began to shiver involuntarily.
Secretly he thought it was probably just his own fear.
He must have been seeing things just now!!!!
But, he still quietly glanced back, muttering to himself, please don’t be there, please don’t be there, please don’t be there...
In that instant, he visibly relaxed.
Indeed, no one was there.
The back seat was empty.
Clearly, he had been seeing things earlier.
Hahaha, he had scared himself!
He was such a big man, always doubting things and fearing ghosts.
Even though he was young and not well-educated, he was still skeptical about ghosts.
Yes, there are no ghosts in this world!
He constantly reassured himself.
But at that moment, accidentally glancing at the rear-view mirror, his face went pale instantly, and his body became rigid.
If he could move, he felt he would abandon the car without hesitation.
Or rather, run as far as possible!
In broad daylight!
They could still appear!
Fierce ghost!
Am I going to die?
I must be dying!
Those were the thoughts of the young taxi driver at that moment.
