Chapter 32: Chapter 32: Fear, Getting on the Wrong Black Car

With that thought, Emily Walker lifted her head, looking towards the dimly lit flourishing city not far away, and decided to hail a taxi to the City Hospital.

Just as she was about to leave the narrow alley and go to the designated taxi stand, she saw a taxi parked right at the mouth of the alley. For a moment, Emily felt that perhaps fate still had some compassion for her, saving her the trouble of walking all the way.

“Excuse me, sir, are you available?” As she approached the taxi, Emily bent down, politely asking the driver in the driver’s seat.

The driver glanced at Emily outside the car window and checked her out from head to toe, then chuckled, “Yes, hop in.”

Hearing the driver’s response, Emily smiled and, without thinking too much, opened the car door and got into the backseat. She then directed the driver, “City Hospital, please.”

The car slowly started, and under the dim street lamps, Emily failed to notice that this slightly worn-out taxi didn’t even have a license plate…

The dusk in E City was flying by fast outside the car window, just like an unpredictable life that vanishes like smoke before you can grasp it.

Looking at the city lights twinkling outside the window, Emily felt a heavy sadness in her heart.

Pushing away all concerns, she lifted her eyes and gave herself an understanding smile, believing, so long as she was willing to try, all the difficulties would eventually pass.

Just as she looked out at the vast city through the car window, she realized that these were not the roads to the City Hospital!

She furrowed her brows in bewilderment and looked at the driver, asking, “Excuse me, sir, did you take a wrong turn? This isn’t the way to the hospital!”

Upon hearing her words, the driver’s face flickered unnaturally for a moment,

but he quickly replied with a smile, “Don’t worry, I’m taking a shortcut. We’ll

get to the hospital quickly!”

After speaking, the middle-aged driver, ignoring Emily’s puzzled expression, suddenly sped up!

Looking at the retreating cityscape from the car window, Emily started to feel a surge of unease. In the rear-view mirror, she thought she saw a lecherous look on the driver’s face!

Could it be that she had ended up in an illicit taxi?

“Uncle, are… are you really taking me to the hospital?” Emily was extremely anxious. Her hands tightly gripped her small backpack, and she could feel sweat starting to form in her palms.

She glanced out of the window, thinking more and more that this car was gradually veering away from the city centre!

Oh no! Could she really have ended up in an unlicensed taxi? She needed to stay calm, stay calm!

Emily held her breath as much as she could, took a deep breath, and tried her best to calm down.

“Of course I’m taking you to the hospital, little lady. Don’t worry, we’ll be there soon.” The driver, while steering the wheel, steered the car into a small lane leading out of the city district.

This wasn’t right. Even though she didn’t know the exact location of the hospital due to the darkness of the night, the most noticeable Futuren Group building was located in the bustling city centre, and the City Hospital was not far from it.

Even if the hospital was overshadowed by tall buildings because of the night, she had just clearly seen the luxurious Futuren Group building soaring into the night sky. Even if this driver was taking shortcuts, there was no way he could be going in the complete opposite direction, right?

Emily’s heart was filled with more and more unease. Recently, she had seen many news stories about college students and girls disappearing frequently.. When they were found, they were either violated or turned into unrecognizable corpses!
