Her small hand clutched his in return.
"..."
Basically, without needing to say much, she proved her trust in him through her actions.
A group of people, holding torches, walked through the rainforest, shouting her na.
"Kami...! Kami...!"
Their voices echoed, but there was absolutely no response.
Soon, they had been searching for nearly an hour with not a single sign of activity, which slowly eroded their patience.
Soone couldn’t help but say:
"In the end, it’s all because of that man that Kami entered the rainforest."
The speaker was a man from Country D who had previously helped Kami.
The person he insinuated, there was no clearer.
"Exactly, in front of so many people, he claid it was Kami who liked him and entered the rainforest to follow him. How could he, a grown man, have the nerve?"
The woman traveling with them said, then couldn’t help but whisper to the person next to her:
"Maybe, he wanted to do sothing to Kami, and when she refused, he—"
She then made a slashing gesture at her neck.
The people around couldn’t help but feel scared.
anwhile, Wen Xian, who was at the front, hearing the murmurs from those people, his face grew visibly pale with anger.
Could these people distort the truth any more!?
Kami Inoue, as a woman, belonged to a vulnerable group; so if sothing happened to her, they had to push all the bla onto a man?
It was outrageous.
David saw that Wen Xian looked terribly upset, and he consoled him a little:
"Xian, don’t bother with those people, I believe in Mr. Lu."
Wen Xian nodded, suppressing his discomfort.
Just as the group continued their search for a while, suddenly there was a sharp scream from the back of the line.
"Ahh...!"
This scream, amid the rainforest night, sounded extrely terrifying, startling everyone.
"She’s gone, Dannie is gone, Dannie...!"
The man from Country D, who had been talking about Lu Xiao, looked around in panic as the person next to him suddenly disappeared, standing still as he road around with a torch.
The rest of the group gathered together, looking around in panic.
Right then, a faint voice ca from sowhere...
"Over here... I’m here..."
"She’s there—!" David and the others quickly identified the source of the faint voice and rushed over.
No matter how terrified everyone was, how chaotic it beca, Lu Xiao kept a tight hold on Wen Xian’s hand without letting go.
Always keeping her in front of him, protecting her.
However, as David and others rushed over, they also found the source of the voice—
In the light of the fire, they saw a so-called hole amid the jungle they were crossing.
The opening was covered with so brushwood, concealing the hole.
And it was there that the woman had accidentally fallen.
"Dannie, Dannie!"
Her companion yelled her na.
The woman in the hole felt intense pain all over her body, especially her legs, as if they were broken; she frowned and slowly opened her eyes.
But just as she opened her eyes in the hole—
"Ahh...!"
She suddenly let out a terrified scream upon seeing sothing.
And as David shone the torch over the hole, seeing clearly what was inside, he couldn’t help but be horrified as well.
Besides Dannie who had just fallen down—
