Chapter 248: Experiment

Chapter 248

Shen Hui took Shen Yue into the small path where there were gradually fewer and fewer people. Not long after, Shen Yue discovered that the driver who had taken them to the commercial district had followed them.

Shen Yue had noticed it early on—the person who drove them here today was not Uncle Zhang, but someone else she hadn't seen before. Compared to Uncle Zhang, this driver's physique did not seem fit for a driver's job. On the contrary, he looked more like one of the bodyguards back home.

When the driver was driving just now, Shen Yue observed that his hands had many calluses and wounds, clearly not a normal driver's hands. It turned out now that Shen Hui had specifically chosen this person.

Shen Hui had been in the Shen Family for a while now. After giving up on plotting against Shen Yue, she hadn't been completely idle. She escaped from that place, but she also knew that as long as those two people were alive, she would have no peace. So she asked Shen Yichen for some people who could help her dispose of corpses in critical moments.

Shen Hui never intended to entrust her safety to others. All she needed were people who could swiftly help her cover things up afterwards.

The driver only showed his face for a moment before hiding himself again at Shen Hui's gesture.

Sensing something wrong with the atmosphere, Shen Yue deliberately asked, "Huihui, aren't we going back?"

Shen Hui's expression was unchanged. "Yeah, it'll be closer going this way."

Shen Yue knew Shen Hui was lying. Following what Shen Hui had taught her before, she started deducing the original worldline from the anomaly she noticed.

According to their original course of action, she and Shen Hui would have bought a third set of clothes. But she had already decided to go to another store after buying the third set. So they would definitely leave after purchasing the third set.

Not far from that store's exit was a preserved fruit store. According to her habit, she would have walked in that direction, bought some preserved fruits, then cut diagonally across this commercial building, and arrived at the back door of this commercially undeveloped building that hardly had anyone there.

Logically thinking, their current location was where the accident would happen.

Shen Hui had clearly received information from the future, yet she did not escape. Instead, she still came here. There was only one possibility—Shen Hui wanted to capture the person who forced her to relive things.

As for the identity of the coming person, it became even clearer.

Speaking of which, Su Yun'an also told her in the previous timeline that he was atoning to Shen Hui. The timing was earlier this time, likely related to Shen Hui's early escape.

Just as she expected, a familiar figure appeared after Shen Yue's brief pondering.

Unlike the Su Yun'an who followed special, elegant aesthetics as Prison Guard No.14 in her memories, the current Su Yun'an was clearly still Su Yun'an.

His expression was extremely cold, yet oddly lacked that unique chilling charm when he conversed. Instead, he seemed like a child wearing adult clothes, using his appearance to disguise the weakness in his heart.

The present Su Yun'an had not experienced battles yet, and had not become the strongest guard in Flightless Bird—No. 14.

At this moment, Shen Hui deliberately made a sound. Su Yun'an immediately looked towards the corner and charged at the two with speed several times faster than normal people's.

As if having long known Su Yun'an's next move, Shen Hui pushed Shen Yue to the other side.

Su Yun'an's attack missed. He froze for a second, which was the moment Shen Hui took out a syringe from nowhere and injected it into his neck.

The needle automatically started injecting once in contact with his skin. In less than a second, a whole syringe of medication was injected into Su Yun'an's body.

He swung the knife in his hand again, seemingly still wanting to attack Shen Hui. But the drugs took effect quickly. After two more random waves of his knife, Su Yun'an collapsed onto the ground.

The driver appeared very quickly. Almost within three seconds of Su Yun'an's fall, he came over and carried Su Yun'an away. He did not seem surprised by what just happened, clearly Shen Hui had briefed him beforehand.

Only then did Shen Hui look towards Shen Yue. She was a little surprised not to see any fear in Shen Yue's eyes.

She stretched her hand out to Shen Yue, who was sitting on the ground after being pushed. "Are you hurt?"

Only then did Shen Yue place her hand in Shen Hui's and use her strength to stand up. "No, I'm not hurt. Huihui, you were so awesome just now!"

Shen Yue did not dodge by herself earlier. Her gaze had been fixed on Su Yun'an, so she naturally also saw Su Yun'an's almost unbelievable speed.

Through Su Yun'an's habits in the previous timeline, she had actually judged his attack route the moment she saw him.

It was just that Su Yun'an's attack moves were still immature now, with many other redundant actions. This resulted in Su Yun'an's original intended attack position being Shen Hui's shoulder blade, but it would have landed on her body due to Shen Hui's reactive response.

According to her understanding of herself, Shen Yue would have deliberately taken that knife attack, pretending to be fatally injured. 𝖋𝖗𝖊𝖊𝖜𝔢𝔟𝖓𝖔𝔳𝔢𝔩.𝔠𝖔𝔪

In short, massive bleeding but internal organs intact, only superficial skin injury that could be treated at the hospital.

The only thing she miscalculated was Shen Hui. Upon seeing the aftermath, Shen Hui panicked and did not immediately call 120. Instead, she chose to commit suicide to transmit information to change this outcome.

This led to the current situation.

Somehow, Shen Yue felt that she was probably, maybe, seemingly, a little unjustified.

She looked at Shen Hui again and said earnestly, "Huihui, thank you for just now."
