Capítulo 1063: Chapter 1067: Alongside the Gods (9)
There are mischievous children everywhere, but here they are the most abundant.
Li Yuerong was so angry, she stomped her feet wanting to catch the most mischievous ones, but the kids slipped away like eels amidst their laughter and playful antics.
Turning to the adults, they showed a good attitude of admitting their mistakes, continuously apologizing, and no matter how Li Yuerong scolded them, they nodded and bowed with sincere admissions of guilt.
Over ti, Lin Zizhu and the others gradually noticed sothing off.
Zhang Xijuan, feeling uneasy, moved a bit closer to Lin Zizhu, tugged at his clothes, and whispered, “Brother Zizhu, have you noticed that these adults… their smiles all seem to have the sa wideness?”
Li Yuerong’s angry voice gradually faded, as she had always felt sothing was amiss.
Now, everyone quickly gathered together, warily looking at the adults who kept apologizing to them.
The children’s parents seed completely unaware of Lin Zizhu and the others’ unease, continuing to imrse themselves in their own world.
Just when Lin Zizhu and the others were on high alert, the kids saw sothing more entertaining and ran off laughing, with the adults quickly following.
Not only did Lin Zizhu and the others not feel relieved, but their entire mood tensed up completely.
A tense, heavy atmosphere enveloped everyone….
With so many problematic people, can they really handle it with just a few of them?
The once joyful amusent park, after the recent realization, now felt like the mouth of a giant man-eating beast.
“The difficulty of the previous gas wasn’t this hard…”
“How about we go find Su Li first? Now that the ga’s so difficult, it’s better for everyone to act together.” said soone, without knowing who first suggested it.
Everyone agreed with this, even Li Yuerong, who seed to hate Su Li the most, didn’t object.
Indeed, they had a sense of the bigger picture and could temporarily set aside personal grievances.
Su Li was unaware that the team, who had sworn to calm down separately, was now ready to latch on imdiately.
————
The amusent park was even busier at night, the crowds dispersed during the day had all gathered at the circus troupe in the evening.
Tonight, there was going to be the most spectacular stage performance here.
Lin Zizhu and his group appeared there amidst the crowd, looking disheveled.
The amusent park seed large, but in reality, it didn’t take long to completely walk around.
Lin Zizhu and the others thought they had planned well, expecting to quickly reunite with Su Li. However, unexpectedly, even after walking the amusent park several tis over and even encountering Sister-in-law Yun, they still couldn’t find any trace of Su Li.
It was as if she had vanished into thin air, leaving no trace.
Even worse, as ti passed, they faced pranks more and more frequently.
If it was just the first few incidents where they thought they were simply unlucky, after experiencing so many, even the dumbest person would catch on.
Clearly, they were being targeted.
As to who was targeting them… Lin Zizhu vaguely had so guesses but didn’t dare to think more.
Because thinking too much might scare themselves to death.
If earlier they wanted to find Su Li quickly because they sensed sothing was wrong, now this had beco a necessity.
“What’s going on with Su Li, how can she run like this?” Li Yuerong complained.
Lin Zizhu shook his head, not contradicting Li Yuerong’s words, clearly bearing so resentnt towards Su Li as well.
Unexpectedly, she really hardened her heart this ti.
“I’ve observed, most of the visitors in the amusent park are now gathered here, Su Li must be here too.”
“Then we can find her.”
Everyone else nodded, but Wang Weihan raised a question, “It’s been so long… could sothing have happened to Su Li?”
“No.” Lin Zizhu said firmly, refusing to entertain such a hypothesis.
Noticing that his attitude was a bit cold, Lin Zizhu softened his tone and explained, “If sothing really happened to her, I would know right away, don’t you rember what we…”
Wang Weihan took a breath of relief, nodded, “I see, I was overthinking it.”
The only possibility now was that Su Li was deliberately avoiding them.
This would explain why they hadn’t found her despite thoroughly searching.
“Could she be hiding from you?” Mrs. Tu hesitantly voiced the truth that Lin Zizhu didn’t want to admit.
For a while, the atmosphere was so silent that even a pin drop could be heard.
Li Yuerong was the first to explode, “What face does she have to hide from us?”
Lin Zizhu, uncharacteristically stern, reprimanded, “Yuerong, don’t speak about her like that.”
Li Yuerong was shocked, never expecting to be treated that way.
The others didn’t spend too much ti tending to Li Yuerong’s proud little princess heart, because….
“Ah, on my body…”
Zhang Xijuan cried out in terror, twisting her head to look at the ominous bluish-black mark on her shoulder.
It wasn’t there a second ago, and now it suddenly appeared.
On her exposed skin, the whiteness of her skin contrasted sharply with the dark mark, making it particularly conspicuous and terrifying, visible even under the dim streetlights.
“Ah, on my body…” Following Zhang Xijuan, Huang Shuzhong was the second to scream in horror.
Huang Shuzhong was so scared she cried, “How can this be happening….”
“Yuerong, look at the back of your hand…” Mrs. Tu’s sharp voice reminded everyone to look at Li Yuerong’s hand: a clear bluish-black small handprint was blatantly visible on the back of her hand.
It was at this mont that everyone reacted.
Lin Zizhu, with an unpleasant expression, said heavily, “It’s that kid.”
Everyone recalled that they had encountered a little boy who had fallen on the ground at the beginning.
Li Yuerong even had a tiff with Su Li over it.
That little boy seed to have patted Li Yuerong’s hand, also bumping into Zhang Xijuan and Huang Shuzhong.
Earlier, there hadn’t been any black marks, aside from so initial pain, there was no other feeling, but now….
“I heard from the elders in my younger days, this is called… Ghost Clapping…” Mrs. Tu’s voice was filled with fear and trembling.
Great panic spread quickly among the group.
Several girls were terrified on the spot.
“We must trust in science, such nonsense should not disrupt people here.” Liu Jiaxiang, known as a stern principal, spoke with integrity, calming the tense hearts slightly.
Yet, Wang Weihan abruptly broke the mood by saying, “Science? Our presence on the train is the most unscientific thing.”
