Caohai Park

Located in the south of Mangshi, there is a large lake surrounding the island, and a jungle park surrounding it. Lin Weiwei's favorite flower sea is in a corner of this park. The president does not allow the construction of any buildings here, and the ecological environment and the closeness between people and nature must be preserved. The area is half an acre in size and there are many wild animals. However, everyone who enters must be accompanied by a tour group and guaranteed by the tour leader. In addition, everyone must register with their real name.

As night falls, the jungle becomes incredibly dense. Rumor has it that this is also a death forest, because without a proper tour group, it's easy to get lost. Nearly 100,000 people disappear from here every year.

Lin Weiwei and her classmates got separated and signed up for five teams. When they went to Caohai Park, they all brought power banks because the signal got worse the further they went in, so they had to make sure they didn't get separated.

Her team consisted of only three people: Li Yao and a tour leader. The service was entirely self-service with coin payment, and they boarded the sightseeing bus, looking around with binoculars, determined to catch Han Han during the day.

"Heading to the next attraction, you two can buy food to feed the animals." The captain's eyes were gleaming with the light of gold coins. Judging from their clothes, they must be big spenders. He was going to treat them to a good meal and make a fortune, which would cover all his revenue for the year.

Damn it...

They say you can see further from a higher vantage point, but what day is it today? Why are there so many people in the park? They look down at the people below as if they were ants.

Beep beep beep, her phone rang first.

"Weiwei, we found it, ahhh..."

"What did you find? Where is it?"

The call was from Maruko and her friends. Judging from their voices, they must have made a major discovery, but the signal was too weak, and the call ended before they could hear anything else.

She picked up the map and looked at the exit that Maruko and the others had gone in the direction of the Ferris wheel.

"Quickly tell me how to change direction to get to the Ferris wheel, I need to go now!" Grabbing the captain's collar, she wasn't there to visit the park or feed the animals.

Why is she getting angry all of a sudden... Why is such a pretty girl in such a hurry?

"We're on a sightseeing bus now, going in the opposite direction from the Ferris wheel. We'll only get back once we reach the end, so don't worry! We're professional guides."

Of course they're in a hurry! Those who came in together must leave together; no one can be left behind! It's truly baffling that such a deadly forest has been transformed into a park. The map shows a round trip of just one kilometer; it would take seven days to explore such a large park. They've already visited three stops; if they could turn back, they still have time.

"Li Yao, you keep going forward, I'm going to find Li Tao." With that, he took off his coat, tied it tightly to the cable, grabbed his sleeves, and swung back.

Upon seeing another sightseeing bus coming from the opposite direction, the oncoming vehicle was startled and stopped. She used the momentum to climb onto the roof of the bus, then tied herself back up and swung back in the opposite direction.

"Walking on a tightrope in the air? Scaling walls and swinging on a swing high in the sky, this is too dangerous! A fall of ten meters could kill you, I'm calling the police!" The captain was so scared that his phone was trembling as he took it out. He had guaranteed the safety of the tourists, and if anything went wrong, he would go to jail.

A sharp knife was pressed against his throat. Li Yao took his phone. "Ignore him, keep driving, don't call the police."

Yes, yes, yes.

I trust her to do things. Li Yao closed his eyes and leaned against the carriage. He had actually installed a tracking chip on Han Han. As long as he got close, he would know where he was. It would be good to split up and meet Han Han first.

I took a nap, and when I opened my eyes again, we had arrived at our stop. I got off the sightseeing bus with the tour leader, one in front of the other. Although some animals, having lived with humans for a long time, have lost their aggressiveness, some wildness is still unavoidable. The tour leader sprayed himself with animal repellent and was about to spray Li Yao when he was kicked away.

"You sprayed such filthy stuff on me? You must have a death wish."

"No, it's company policy. Please cooperate; otherwise, we won't be responsible for any problems."

"roll!"

Li Yao refused to spray such a smelly thing and walked on the cobblestone path. Cuckoos were calling out, and a giraffe was grazing. The captain was talking to himself.

Suddenly, a black panther appeared and looked in their direction. The captain, having sprayed a beast-repelling agent, wasn't afraid. He demonstrated by inserting a coin, which dropped a piece of meat, and tossed it out, smiling at the wealthy patron in front of him.

The black panther seemed to have grown tired of its meat, licking its lips a few times with a dissatisfied look in its eyes. Its mouth watering, it charged over, bypassed the captain, bared its teeth and roared, and pounced on Li Yao.

"I told you to criticize it, but you wouldn't. Now let me criticize it for you."

A pair of icy hands took the reagent, ran to the black leopard, pressed the spray button on Li Yao, let out a few soft cries, and ran back into the jungle.

"I saved you, shouldn't you give me back my heart?" Han Han's mouth and hair were covered in blood, and he was holding a dagger in his hand.

"A first-class fugitive! Oh my god!"

The captain hadn't run more than a few steps when a knife was found hanging on his back.

"Heh, you have no right to negotiate with me. A smart woman wouldn't think about killing the people around the man she loves, but rather how to win back his heart, you fool."

Li Yao looked at the person in front of her. This guy must have killed a lot of people and animals in this park, all to replace her heart. Original things are always the best; anything that doesn't belong to the original will naturally cause rejection.

She knelt down in front of him with a thud, "I know I was wrong, please tell me what to do next."

When Han Han was found, Lin Weiwei arrived at the other side and saw a swarm of flies gnawing on the corpse, ignoring the wild beasts around it. Li Tao and the others trembled with fear.

Lin Weiwei kicked the man away and saw his face clearly. The body was swollen and oozing bodily fluids, indicating that he had been dead for about two or three days. His heart had been ripped out, rather than dying accidentally. It seemed that her analysis was correct; Han Han's fatal weakness was his heart. But if that thing was on her, why would she take it from someone else?

There is only one truth: someone is using her heart to control everything. Apart from Han Han, she really can't think of anyone she has an irreconcilable hatred for. However, the appearance of this corpse looks a bit familiar, as if she has seen it somewhere before.

"Yes... Principal Xia."

With a large belly and a wrinkled face, it really looked like her! The principal was dead... No. This was still a trap. They would lure them into Caohai Park to distract everyone, then kill all the students one by one. They couldn't all stay here. Lin Weiwei immediately sent a group text message to everyone, telling them to evacuate. If they didn't receive it, she would send another one until they did.
