Chapter 1730: Who Exactly Is It?
After a rest, Gu Fan rallied everyone to pull themselves together and get back on the road. If there was anything to boost morale, it was that at least everyone was still alive.
After hearing this, the other classmates couldn’t help but smile. It was quite unexpected. Many desperados and other passengers had been attacked, leaving their lives in this deserted town, but these seven classmates were actually unharmed.
Li Shi couldn’t help but joke, maybe it’s the will of heaven protecting us?
Although no one really took the talk of destiny seriously, they treated it as amusement. But it did indeed give everyone a bit of motivation, fantasizing that perhaps they had just been lucky enough to survive until now.
"Alright, let’s keep moving." Gu Fan and Li Shi took the lead, and everyone walked down a flight of steps, intending to return to their original location.
At first, everything went smoothly, everyone was being very cautious, but then a gunshot echoed, followed by a bullet whizzing past Gu Fan, narrowly missing him, and hitting the stone wall beside him.
This was terrifying, and Gu Fan nearly dropped his flashlight, quickly aiming it toward the opposite direction.
Everyone only heard the gunshot, but didn’t see the gunfire. They didn’t know from which direction the enemy fired, and fear took over.
Gu Fan had no choice but to brace himself and charge downward. He knew the surroundings were dark, and that the enemy, from such a distance, couldn’t see clearly and could only predict Gu Fan’s position based on the light.
"Bullets are limited; I don’t believe they’ll keep shooting." Gu Fan was gambling on this as he quickly descended the stairs, with the other classmates close behind.
Li Shi noticed that, in the darkness, the enemy hadn’t fired again, feeling puzzled, yet relieved, as she had no desire to be shot.
