Chapter 83 Being Hunted

There is a secluded bamboo forest at the back door of the Xia Mansion. According to Liu Yan's kind reminder, Xia Yunjie is very likely hiding here.

Su Xing cursed Ye Linghan from head to toe in his heart before he calmed down and carefully looked at the bamboo forest in front of him.

The bamboo grows so densely that you can't see the end of it.

If it weren't for catching Xia Yunjie, this would be a great place to relax.

Su Xing secretly sighed, feeling regretful, and focused all his attention on finding clues.

He had just asked the servants of the Xia Mansion, and they knew that this bamboo forest was Xia Yunjie's private territory.

Because he particularly loved bamboo, he personally planted and maintained it, and no one else was allowed to enter.

So no one knows what's inside the bamboo forest, where it leads to, etc.

No wonder Ye Linghan asked him to find Xia Yunjie. It turned out that the range had been locked. He didn't need to look all over the world for him. He just had to catch him in the jar.

But even so, he was still very angry.

He is a forensic doctor, good at performing autopsies and investigating cases, but how can he be asked to do this kind of cat-and-mouse job?

It was Ye Linghan who tortured him on purpose!

Su Xing clenched his back teeth and made what he thought was a very ferocious expression...

Then he took a deep breath and walked towards the bamboo forest with his long legs.

It is not easy to walk in the bamboo forest, and it is easy to lose your way, especially when you walk deep into it.

Su Xing stopped and looked around, only to find that everything looked the same. He didn't even know which direction he had come from.

He wouldn't be trapped in the bamboo forest, would he? Su Xing's heart was suddenly filled with infinite fear.

But his fear was quickly suppressed by his optimistic attitude. It was just a bamboo forest, not a deep mountain forest. How could he be trapped so easily?

Besides, Ye Linghan and the others knew where he was. If he didn’t come back, they would definitely send someone to look for him.

Thinking of this, he smiled fearlessly, then locked onto a direction based on his senses and continued forward.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, Su Xing's legs became sore and his breathing became more and more rapid, so he had to stop and rest.

Taking this opportunity, he looked around again, and when he was about to finish the look, a small wooden house suddenly came into his sight.

Su Xing's eyes lit up, and without caring about his tiredness, he rushed towards the wooden house.

The wooden house looked close, but the road was difficult to travel on, and Su Xing almost exhausted all his strength before finally arriving.

After he bent over and gasped for a long time, he straightened up, walked over and pushed open the door of the wooden house.

Su Xing has made various preparations, including fighting desperately with Xia Yunjie.

But when he went in, he saw a person lying in the middle of the room, or to be exact, a corpse.

He was stunned and didn't react for a long time.

Just then, a gust of wind suddenly blew outside the wooden house, making the bamboo forest rustle.

Su Xing suddenly came back to his senses and quickly walked to the body to examine it.

The deceased was a young man, about the same age as him. A bamboo stick as thick as his wrist was stuck in his chest. He was bleeding a lot, and not only his clothes but also the surrounding ground were red.

Su Xing stared at the wound for a moment, then reached out to check.

As soon as his hand touched the corpse, he was stunned. The blood was still hot... the person had just died...

This means that the murderer didn't go far and is very likely... in the cabin!

Su Xing froze instantly, even holding his breath...

Before he could figure out what to do, a gust of cold wind blew from behind him, and something was attacking his back!

Su Xing's mind went blank, but fortunately his instinct for survival was triggered, and at the critical moment, he bent down and rolled over the corpse.

After landing, he quickly stepped back until his back was against the wall before he dared to look up.

It turned out to be a man dressed the same as Ying Yi and Ying Er, and even his temperament was equally cold.

But this man looked older, probably in his thirties.

"Who are you?" Su Xing was terribly frightened, but his voice was very powerful.

The man's eyes were full of murderous intent. He had no intention of talking to Su Xing and rushed towards Su Xing again.

Su Xing was scared to death. Why didn't this guy play by the rules?

Just knowing how to kill without asking any questions?

Is it a killer?

Su Xing picked up something and threw it over, then ran towards the door with all his might.

Fortunately, he was close to the door and ran out of it in just two steps. Then he turned around, closed the door, and then blocked it with his body.

He looked around, trying to find something to block the door, and pretended to scare the man: "I am the regent's man. The regent is nearby. You can't run away. Don't waste your energy. Turn yourself in quickly."

In order to make the man believe, he deliberately shouted to the distance: "Regent! There is an assassin here, come quickly!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the wooden door split in the middle with a "click".

Su Xing was so frightened that his soul almost flew away. He ran away without even having time to check the situation.

But the man soon caught up with him, his footsteps were getting closer and closer, and Su Xing could even see him out of the corner of his eye.

Because of this, he noticed that something was wrong with the man, as if he was injured, with one hand always covering his chest.

Su Xing didn't know whether he was lucky or unlucky. If the man hadn't been injured, he would probably have died long ago.

But even so, he didn't dare to be careless, because his physical strength could not hold out for much longer.

"Don't chase me anymore. The Regent is really nearby. If you want to stay alive, leave now. I promise I won't report you. Anyway, I haven't seen what you look like."

Su Xing's proposal fell on deaf ears and no one paid any attention to him.

Su Xing was about to collapse. He just hated himself for having two legs.

It's not enough at the critical moment...

It's over, he's dead this time!

Unexpectedly, he did not die at the hands of Ye Linghan in the end, but was killed by a killer whose name or even appearance he did not know. This is too innocent!

Once people lose confidence, failure is inevitable.

Su Xing couldn't run anymore. Even if he continued, he would suffocate to death due to lack of breath.

Since he's going to die anyway, why should he make himself suffer so much?

He gritted his teeth and hid behind some bamboos, staring at the man and breathing heavily.

The man seemed to have reached his limit. Blood was already flowing from where his hands were covering, but he seemed to feel nothing. His terrifying eyes still revealed horrifying murderous intent.

He casually broke off a piece of bamboo and walked towards Su Xing step by step.

Su Xing was so exhausted that he couldn't move at all. He could only stare at the man with his eyes open.

"Who are you? Why do you want to kill me?" Su Xing knew he couldn't escape, but he wanted to know the truth even if he died: "Is the person in the room Xia Yunjie? Why do you want to kill him?"

As you can imagine, the man still ignored him, but just raised the bamboo coldly and stabbed at Su Xing without hesitation.

Su Xing knew he couldn't escape, but he didn't want to face the scene of being killed, so he simply closed his eyes.

At the same time, he hated Ye Linghan so much that he shouted out in anger: "Ye Linghan! You bastard!"
