Infinite: Dawn Game

Chapter 294 Chase

Outside the villa.

Liu Yao and Wang Han raced around the villa, keeping an eye out for anything that looked strange or inexplicable.

"..."

Whirring whirring--

The two ran around the villa, their only sounds being the panting from their vigorous running and the occasional rustling of flowers and grass in the cold wind.

"Gan!"

Liu Yao, hands on her hips, bent over, panting, wiping the sweat from her face, and cursed:

"They took so much money from me and only gave us a dozen minutes! How can money be so easy to earn!"

Wang Han, standing next to him: "..."

Wang Han sighed, "Who says it isn't, baby? Money is so hard to earn here. Why is it that other people, or rather, other NPCs, can earn money so easily?"

Liu Yao stood up abruptly, ignoring her own panting breath, and quickly walked to a dimly lit corner not far away, muttering to herself:

"No, no, we've spent so much money, we have to see the whole area outside..."

Wang Han nodded in agreement.

He is feeling a little heartbroken now.

That money was meant for his and Liu Yao's trip, and they just threw a whole bundle of it away like that... It hurts so much it's like my heart is bleeding...

After some lighthearted banter, the two had almost finished exploring the area outside the villa.

It was almost the same as what I had seen during the day, except that the surroundings were dark and the wind was a bit cold.

Liu Yao instantly felt that she had wasted her money.

She also began to feel heartache.

How much does a kindergarten teacher earn in a month? She works so hard all month, cleaning up poop and pee, feeding the children, and gently coaxing them, and she only gets about 4300 yuan... and that's with the 300 yuan attendance bonus (she can't be late or leave early for a month).

Just imagine how difficult life will be for them once they get out of here.

Liu Yao was filled with grief and indignation, and regretted it so much that she felt like her guts were turning green.

"Never mind, nothing else should happen."

After searching around and finding nothing, Liu Yao sighed, then turned to Wang Han and earnestly confessed:

"Honey, I've made up my mind. From now on, we need to be frugal with money and spend it wisely. We absolutely cannot let NPCs take advantage of us..."

Wang Han was amused by her "sincere" confession. Just as he was about to pull Liu Yao away, cold sweat broke out on his body.

"Yao, Yao Yao..."

Wang Han's voice was very low. He suppressed his fear and stared intently behind Liu Yao. He grabbed Liu Yao's arm and ran forward frantically.

"What's wrong? Why did you suddenly run away—" Liu Yao was still a little confused and subconsciously turned around.

Then, she stared in horror at the dimly lit flowerbed behind her. A dark figure with twisted limbs and an obscured face was making cracking sounds as its bones broke. Its head, which was covered by black hair, was raised in a ferocious manner and looked at where she and Wang Han were!

The next second, the dark figure twisted its body and stepped out of the flowerbed, quickly chasing after the two!

"Holy crap! Holy crap! Holy crap!!! Run! Run! Run!!!"

In that instant, Liu Yao forgot her sense of responsibility as a gardener and fled with Wang Han for her life.

"What on earth is that thing?! Cough cough cough cough?!"

Liu Yao ran forward frantically, but a gust of cold wind choked her and made her cough.

Wang Han, who was running so fast his legs were almost blurry, still managed to pull his girlfriend along with him.

"Cough cough! Stop, stop talking!! Save your energy for running, cough cough!!!"

The rushing wind rushed past their ears as Liu Yao and her companion stopped talking and ran forward like madmen.

It'll be here soon, it'll be here soon, the villa gate is not far away.

Behind them, the sounds of twisting bones breaking and the heavy rumble of a chase nearly terrified the unfortunate couple.

As Liu Yao ran, tears streamed down her face in the wind. "Almost there? Almost there—Holy crap, what's that old man doing standing by the door!"

Wang Han was startled. He looked up at the villa gate and saw the old housekeeper standing by the gate, her expression unreadable, as if she was about to close it.

"Damn it! Run!! Run, run!"

Wang Han was so frightened by the other party's apparent closing of the door that he almost lost his mind.

Liu Yao was so frightened that tears and snot streamed down her face, and she made whimpering sounds as she dragged her aching, numb, and swollen legs forward.

The fear, coupled with the old housekeeper's hand poised to close the door at any moment, made her feel that her legs were utterly useless.

How did humans evolve into bipedal animals?! Wasn't crawling on all fours perfectly fine?! How much faster could we be with so many arms?!

Even though they were still two hundred meters away from the villa gate, both of them could clearly see the bulging veins on the back of the old housekeeper's hand as she forcefully pushed towards the gate.

"Don't close the door!!!"

Wang Han stopped pretending and, howling like a banshee, crawled and rolled along with Liu Yao until he finally dared to smash open the door just a second before the old housekeeper closed it!

boom!

The commotion of the villa's front door being smashed open startled many players who were silently watching the commotion from their windows on the second floor.

Xu Han, standing by the window, swallowed hard and cautiously glanced at the distorted figure still following the couple.

"My God, they almost both died..."

This is terrifying... Even he, who was standing in a safe area watching, broke out in a cold sweat.

"..." He Lingling silently closed the curtains, her gaze lingering for a few seconds on the flowerbed downstairs that had been crushed into a mess.

As the figure chasing Liu Yao and her companion departed, the roses in the flowerbed were scattered and fell onto the soil. The roses that the young ladies had "planted" in the soil during the day were crushed into flower mud by the other party's body.

The petals of a rose are red, and when most of the rose petals are broken and crushed, the remaining sap in the soil looks more like some kind of strange, viscous, scarlet liquid...

He Lingling's hair stood on end instantly.

Is there, is there any possibility—

----------

boom!

Liu Yao and Wang Han, who burst into the villa after breaking down the door, fell to the ground in pain, but still managed to crawl towards the middle of the living room on their hands and feet.

"Close the door! Close the door!!!"

Liu Yao turned around angrily and in fear, and yelled at the old housekeeper who was standing frozen in place by the gate after it had just been kicked open.

Her eyes red with shock as she stared at the distorted, pure white figure outside the villa, and screamed:

"You were in such a hurry to close the door! Now you're not closing it because you want to see us go—wait, what?!"

Wang Han quickly covered Liu Yao's mouth, his eyelids stinging from the cold sweat. He stared at the old housekeeper who had turned her head away by the door, his hands and feet trembling with cold.

"No, it's nothing," Wang Han's cheek muscles twitched. "You, you can close it as you see fit."

Liu Yao didn't see it clearly just now.

But he saw it clearly.

The butler's head was now turned 360 degrees to look directly at them.
