Plan to pursue the old director.

He put his hand over his mouth and let out a long yawn.

The feeling of the whole body was exhausted, the mind could not absorb another word.

A little nostalgic, but she still reluctantly closed the book she was reading in her hand.

Probably have to borrow it to continue studying.

Gathering fish utensils, pens and books on the table, she reluctantly got up to leave.

Take a look around the library.

Apparently not reluctantly, but now that everyone has left, the library is completely empty.

Looks like she's the only one who doesn't feel it's too late.

Put the book in front of the keeper of the library.

She politely said.

- I have not finished reading this book, I want to borrow this book to read more.

- Yes, give me your brother's student card to register to borrow books.

The procedure was quite quick, she received the card and the book back.

As soon as she stepped out the door, a cold wind startled her a little.

Lifting her hand to the collar of her coat, putting the borrowed book in her backpack, she quickly walked back to her apartment.

She is Sweet Pea, twenty-two years old this year, a third year student at Harvard University.1

They only had her, partly because Mr. Gunn got married late, partly because of infertility, so they didn't have her until they were old.

Therefore, she was always pampered and protected by her parents.

However, she is very progressive, has excellent academic performance, and does not depend on her parents at all.

This made her parents very pleased.

However, it still could not stop the love of Mr and Mrs. Gunn's children.

When she decided to study in the US, Mr. Gunn bought her an apartment here.

Not very big, but comfortable and close to the school, that's fine.

It was late at night, and the streets were deserted.

The way to the apartment is not too far from the school, but it also makes Sweet Pea faster.

The street lights were dim, plus the eyelids were a bit heavy from being tired after a long day.

Her whole body crashed into a barrier in front of her.

She rubbed her slightly aching head, wondering why she bumped into an obstacle, while she was still walking in the middle of the wide sidewalk.

Before she could figure it out, she was pulled by a large hand into a nearby dark alley.

Only then did Sweet Pea realize that she had just hit a wall of flesh.

She was about to ask, "Who are you?" but the other party raised his hand to cover her mouth.

Fierce shot her a sharp look.

In the dark night, those eyes were like evil eyes that gave her chills.

The other party raised his voice enough for two people to hear, but full of warning.

- Shut up, I won't do anything to you.

If you speak up, I will immediately kill you.

The mouth is still covered, the mind is extremely scared.

She just nodded to signal that she understood, the other party also slowly let go of the big hand that was covering her mouth.

Just not long after that.

Loud footsteps.

The two of them are getting closer and closer.

In that moment, she couldn't even breathe.

She could hear her heart pounding furiously in her chest as if screaming for release.

The alley the two of them stood in was dark enough to obscure the view of those outside.

As if to prevent her from selling out, the man was still standing very close to her, one hand still clutching Sweet Pea's shoulder.

The distance was so close that, she could clearly feel each other's quick and heavy breaths.

Breathing becomes faster and shorter.

She even imagined smelling the strong fishy smell of blood in the air.

Putting aside her own weird thoughts, she reassured herself, "Probably not, it's because you're too scared to give birth to hallucinations. Calm down Sweet Pea".

After looking around for a while, the people outside also gave up.

She could also hear it clearly, the swearing of one of them echoing.

- Damn, his dog's life is so big.

But was able to run away.

I really don't know how to talk to the old man.

Not long after that, the sound of people disappeared, the silhouettes of the people outside were no longer hovering.

Both she and the new man breathed a sigh of relief.

But she still had another problem, the man in front of her.

She timidly suggested.

- What, can you let go of me? They're all gone.

She could understand that he tacitly agreed or not.

She mustered up the courage to push his arm that was resting on her shoulder.

I only saw him hissing loudly through his teeth, feeling extremely painful.

At this point, Sweet Pea really noticed the smell of blood that she had been smelling since just now.

- Are you injured?

A question that questioned her, but also confirmed her own speculation.

He didn't answer, but she knew she was right.

She suggested.

- Follow me.

Only then did the man speak.

- According to you? doing what?

She turned back to question him.

- Don't follow me? So do you want to go back out there? Not sure where they all went.

He clicked his tongue and followed her.

He didn't believe a girl like her could do anything to him.

Although he was seriously injured, he was still strong enough to deal with a woman like her.

Moreover, he is not familiar with the roads here.

The wound on his shoulder due to a lot of blood loss, also made him weak and somewhat tired.

So he followed in her footsteps.
