Chapter 399: How Did I Get Hit?
However, Gu Qingjiu, who Lu Yimei and the rest reckoned should remain in hiding, was advancing without hesitation at that moment.
She clutched the gun firmly in her hand, moving ahead carefully in a slightly bent over position.
Her nimble eyes spun quickly in the darkness, while her ears listened to the situation around her.
Around her were tree branches and short bushes.
When one stepped on the ground, they would make creaking noises if one wasn’t careful enough.
If one got unlucky and stepped on withered branches or leaves, an even louder sound would be made, easily revealing their location.
But she wasn’t afraid.
She was like a leopard moving around in the darkness.
She gingerly moved about, while searching for her prey at the same time.
There wasn’t a need to worry about things on the tree, for participants were forbidden from hiding on a tree.
Hence, everyone was spread out on the ground.
It just depended on whether she could catch anyone.
She moved towards the direction of that eliminated member.
Gu Qingjiu was cautious even in her breathing. Every sound was magnified in her ears.
Her acute senses allowed her to detect all the movements around her.
The surroundings were more or less the same. She proceeded by hiding behind tree trunks to lessen the possibility of getting hit by someone.
‘Bang!’
‘Bang!’
But just then, two gunshot sounds suddenly rang from afar!
Clearly, two people bumped into each other.
At the same time, Gu Qingjiu could hear, amid the two gunshots, slight ‘sha sha’ sounds.
This… shouldn’t be audible at all.
Especially since those sounds blended with the gunshot sounds.
But Gu Qingjiu heard it.
Such ‘sha sha’ sounds were out of the ordinary since there wasn’t any wind around.
It was in the bush ahead!
That person was hiding using the same method as Gu Qingjiu.
And almost right after those two gunshot sounds rang out, Gu Qingjiu—who deduced that there was someone in the bush ahead—fired in that direction with no hesitation.
‘Bang!’
“F*ck!”
‘Beep, beep, beep, beep!’
Following the firing of the shot, Gu Qingjiu heard someone cuss.
At the same time, red lights lit up, indicating that that person wasn’t from the same school!
She said nothing, merely retreating like a leopard that succeeded in capturing its prey.
There shouldn’t be anyone else in the vicinity. That person who she hit could only watch as she backed into the darkness once again.
He had no idea how she discovered his location.
The reason he hid here was that it was unlikely for someone to discover him. Unless that person saw him hiding there right from the start.
But that was impossible.
He couldn’t have been clueless about it if someone was following him.
Else, under normal circumstances, no one could find out that he was there.
That student—who was hit—thought with a dark expression for a moment. Earlier on, he had subconsciously shifted his head when he heard the gunshots.
His helmet might have scraped against a tree branch. But the sound it made was negligible.
Moreover, there was a gunshot sound going on at that moment.
It was only this one movement!
Else, he neither made any noise nor made any movements. How did this person realize he was there?
Unless this person merely shot blindly upon seeing a bush.
The kind that was trying their luck.
But looking at how calmly that person retreated, it was clear that they weren’t shooting blindly.
There were thousands of bushes—large and small—like this in the entire mountain forest.
No matter how he thought about it, he couldn’t fathom how his location was exposed.
The red light on his body was piercingly bright.
This member had no choice but to head down the mountain.
The commanders at the foot of the mountain had terrible countenances.
