The night sky was bright under the full moon. The clouds moved in front of the moon, and a cool breeze blew through, chilling the air.
The moonlight was bright enough to illuminate the jungle beneath, where the hooting of nocturnal animals could be heard.
The crushing sound was heard every now and then. Mo Jiang walked while huffing cold air out of his mouth. Although his body was weak, his mind remained as sharp as before.
Otherwise, he was unable to leave the hospital.
Si Li would never let him leave, and Mo Jiang didn't have the patience to wait when three years had already been wasted, and no one knew where Liu Juan was.
He had to find her.
Si Li would undoubtedly be enraged once he got the news about his escape, but he knew Si Li would eventually come to his help.
The hospital was located outside the city B and it was far away from the headquarters where he needed to go.
Well, he could use the road where he could easily get a ride but there were high chances to be caught by Si Li's men and brought back to the hospital.
Mo Jiang was grateful for Si Li who had helped him during the last three years and he would definitely repay for his kindness but first, he needed to find Liu Juan.
Mo Jiang knew Si Li's men would come to his forest as well, which was why he needed to hide for the time being.
Despite the fact his worsening condition, he continued to walk. Soon, he found out a hidden cave on the tree bark.
He hid there, using broken branches to completely hide the cave. As he expected, Si Li's men did come in search of him but they were unable to find him.
The night faded away, and the sun rose to brighten up the entire sky.
The chirping of the birds was heard. Mo Jiang left the cave and walked towards the highway.
Soon, he got out of the woods and reached the highway where bȧrėly any vehicle passed through.
Despite his stomach growling in hunger, Mo Jiang did not stop and continued walking.
And this lift was more important to him than anything else.
Therefore, he hid behind the bushes and when the car came closer, he abruptly came out. The lady was driving carelessly on the desert highway, shocked to see the man came suddenly in front of her.
She slammed on the brakes but it was too late because her car hit the man.
The screeching sound of the tires was echoed.
In reality, Mo Jiang fell before the car could hit him but the lady was too shocked to see his trick.
The woman's heart was pounding loudly as she was terrified. Her brain had told her to leave, but her consciousness wouldn't let her. She eventually came out to check on the man after a few minutes of internal debate.
She knelt down to check on Mo Jiang, who pretended to pass out.
She placed her fingers in front of his nostrils to see if he was breathing. Mo Jiang's eyes opened unexpectedly, and he pointed a gun at her.
"Do not move or I will kill you." Mo Jiang had forewarned her. Fortunately for him, he also had the opportunity to steal a gun from the hospital.
"P-Please don't kill me….I don't have anything with me…" The woman begged stutteringly
"If you do what I say, I won't kill you." He said as he sat, continuing to point his gun at her.
"What do you want?" The woman asked in fear.
"I want to go to a place, drive there. Come on let's go." Mo Jiang stood up along with the woman. They walked back to the car. he took the driver's seat, while Mo Jiang sat in the passenger seat.
Sweat was dripping down her brow to her cheek, and her hands shivered as she gripped the steering wheel.
Of course, it was difficult to drive for her.
"Drive now!" Mo Jiang said he poked her in the head with the gun in an intimidating manner. He looked around to see if anyone had noticed them. He needed to get out of here quickly before Si Li's men could find him.
They would be somewhere here.
The woman shivering started the car and drove off as Mo Jiang gave her direction. The Underworld business headquarters of Mo Jiang was so far away from the hospital that it took them an entire day to get there.
The woman was in the breaking down position but when her life was in threat, she did not dare to act recklessly.
As a result, she drove nonstop.
"Stop." Mo Jiang said as he finally saw the familiar abandoned building.
The woman slammed on the brakes immediately.
"We get here." Mo Jiang said, and the woman breathed a heavenly sigh of relief because this man was about to let her go.
Right?
"Thanks for your help. You were quite helpfully, unfortunately, your life's journey has come to an end here."
The woman was happy at his initial sentence but later, she turned confused on his words, and before she could grasp the meaning behind his sentence.
"Bang!"
