Chapter 309: Petty
Looking at the bus that had stopped with its engine turned off, Xu Feng’s complexion wasn’t good, because the engine cutting out meant he had to leave the temporarily safe bus and head outside.
If he forced himself to stay on the bus, he was certain to die, and it was the same for a ghost controller, without any exception.
He had once witnessed such a scene, when almost half the people in the bus had died, including a ghost controller stronger than himself. That time, he had been utterly clueless and only managed to survive by dumb luck, which made him understand the terror of the situation afterwards.
"There are three ghosts outside, I don’t know if they have left. If they have, everything will be easy to handle. But if they’re still lingering nearby, I can only continue to stall for time and wait for the bus to restart. I hope the situation won’t continue to deteriorate further," Xu Feng glanced to the side.
He didn’t stray far from the bus that had stopped, all the while staying alert to everything unusual around him.
"Never mind the dangers outside for now, I heard your conversation just now. That newcomer is also a ghost controller who tracked your signal. He should’ve been here to help you. Was it really okay to sell him out without saying a word?"
The man in the duckbill cap suddenly teased with a laugh, also monitoring their surroundings.
Xu Feng’s expression remained very calm, "What does it matter to me if he dies out of ignorance about the bus’s rules? Without my warning, he would have died during the first stop. Strictly speaking, I helped him. What can I do if the bus suddenly stops? In this situation, nobody would want to be involved.
With the three ghosts lingering outside already very dangerous, plus the possibility of that newcomer turning into a vengeful ghost after death, our survival chances out here would be minimized."
