Chapter 107: 111 Chase!

Shen Lingxi could hardly believe her eyes as she rushed over, only to see Su Ru’s legs tied up with a rope made of vines, the whole person hung upside down from a tree!

She hurriedly pulled out a small knife and forcefully cut the sturdy vines, causing Su Ru to fall to the ground.

"What happened?"

"It was Tang Xiaohua! Lingxi, it was Tang Xiaohua who set the trap! She stole our bags!"

No sooner had Su Ru been freed than, without even catching her breath, she hastily said to Shen Lingxi!

Shen Lingxi’s eyebrows knitted tightly together, "What did you say?"

"She set a trap here, and after I fell into it, she took our bags!"

"..."

"Lingxi, we have to chase her quickly, if we hurry we might still catch up!"

Su Ru quickly scrambled to her feet, grabbed Shen Lingxi, and started running forward.

Shen Lingxi trembled with anger, her fists clenched, and the words "Tang Xiaohua" viciously burst out from between her teeth!

The two of them didn’t delay, immediately giving chase!

...

The deep mountains at night gained an eerie stillness that sent chills down one’s spine, with the sound of the wind stirring the leaves echoing in one’s ears, conjuring many terrifying thoughts.

Song Lili, carrying the bags she had taken from Su Ru, had Lin Xinglan following behind her.

"Aren’t you afraid Shen Lingxi and Su Ru will hold a grudge against you for just taking their bags like that?"

"Xinglan, there’s only one chance for selection, and being an officer candidate isn’t available every year. At a time like this, if you’re still worried about offending people..." Song Lili took a shallow breath, "You really aren’t taking the selection seriously."

Lin Xinglan’s chest tightened, and she quickly denied, "No, I am serious about passing the selection!"

Song Lili glanced at her, and Lin Xinglan panicked under that gaze. However, Song Lili’s indifferent expression quickly turned into a smile.

Lin Xinglan finally let out a sigh of relief.

So the people hiding evil intentions... are always this guilty?

She muttered to herself.

"Ah, that trap... wasn’t it meant for Luo Shengnan and the others? So now we plan to take back our bags?"

"It’s just unlucky for them and lucky for Su Ru, I guess."

"How frustrating..."

Lin Xinglan sighed.

"Aren’t they ahead of us now? If we pick up our pace, maybe we’ll catch up with them."

Said Song Lili.

They had already reached the foot of Luoheng Mountain, with the moon slanting in the west, the moonlight serene, and the chirping of insects and rustling of leaves resounding through the forest.

The flashlight beam shone on the primitive earth, the path narrowing and becoming harder to follow, their footsteps growing clearer...

Lin Xinglan felt a surge of fear and subconsciously gripped Song Lili’s bag.

"Watch your step."

Song Lili advised.

Compared to Lin Xinglan, Song Lili was slightly better off, thanks in part to past lives where Lu Xiaoer had often dragged her on various outdoor activities, conquering wild mountains, and crossing various rivers and lakes. She wasn’t much of an expert, but at least she had the basic experience.

"Xiao Hua... how much longer until we can rest?"

Lin Xinglan was both afraid and tired, pleadingly asking Song Lili.

Song Lili glanced at her wristwatch, referenced the map and compass that were barely useful anymore, made a rough guess of their direction and position, and was about to speak when she suddenly stopped in place, also instructing Lin Xinglan to stand still and be quiet.
