Lin Zhiyue pretended to be scared, turned around and ran deeper into the woods, his steps deliberately making a hasty sound and making a lot of noise.

Zhao San and his companions thought she was scared and chased after her without hesitation, shouting and cursing as they chased her, waving their sticks in the air, as if this would give them courage.

As he ran, Lin Zhiyue saw an undulating area in front of him, which was covered with rocks of various sizes and dense bushes.

She was delighted and decided to set a "trap" here.

She ran there at a faster pace, and before Zhao San and others could catch up, she quickly pushed some loose stones to the middle of the path, and covered the stones with the herbs and dead branches in the backpack, leaving only some subtle flaws.

Then she hid behind a huge rock, held her breath, and waited for Zhao San and others to arrive.

After a while, the figures of Zhao San and others appeared in sight. They were running breathlessly, with sweat on their faces.

As Zhao San ran, he shouted, "Little girl, you can't run away, come out now!"

When they ran to the place where Lin Zhiyue had set the "trap", they were so focused on chasing that they didn't notice anything unusual under their feet.

Zhao San stepped on a covered stone and instantly lost his balance and fell forward.

The stick in his hand also flew out and hit the bushes beside him.

Seeing this, the other two scoundrels wanted to stop, but due to too much inertia, they also fell to the ground. The three of them rolled on the ground, screaming.

Lin Zhiyue walked out from behind the boulder, looked at the three people in such a state of disgrace, and said coldly: "Don't be stubborn anymore. If you continue like this, you will only hurt yourself more."

Zhao San struggled to get up from the ground, looked at Lin Zhiyue fiercely, and said, "You little bitch, I will remember this account today. When I calm down, I will definitely not let you go!"

Lin Zhiyue ignored his threat, turned around and continued walking towards the depths of the forest.

She knew that although she had gotten rid of them temporarily this time, she had to find a permanent solution as soon as possible.

While picking herbs, she was thinking about how to deal with the danger that might happen next.

After picking herbs, Lin Zhiyue did not go home directly, but came to the captain's house.

She told Aunt Guihua and the team leader everything that had happened.

After hearing this, the captain's face became very serious. He slapped the table and said, "These scoundrels are too shameless! They actually dared to do such robbery in the village. I will never let them go!"

Aunt Guihua held Lin Zhiyue's hand and said distressedly: "Yueyue, you have suffered. Don't be afraid, with your uncle and aunt here, they dare not do anything to you."

The captain immediately decided to call together the village security team to investigate and punish Zhao San and others.

At the same time, he also arranged several security guards to patrol near Lin Zhiyue's home to ensure her safety.

Lin Zhiyue looked at the captain and Aunt Guihua with gratitude, tears in her eyes. She knew that in this strange era, there was still such a group of kind people willing to help and protect her.

After leaving the captain's house, Lin Zhiyue felt much more relaxed.
