Chapter 769 - 228 Threat_2
Jiang Li and Situ Jiuyue couldn’t help but look down at the ground, and Jiang Li called out softly.
It was a section of a person’s finger. Situ Jiuyue picked up the finger nonchalantly, furrowed her brow, and said, "A woman’s finger, do you recognize it?"
Jiang Li suppressed her shock, looked at the finger, and indeed it was a woman’s little finger. She was stupefied at first glance and murmured, "It’s Hai Tang’s finger..."
Hai Tang’s little finger was marked with three small red moles, which back then Xue Fangfei had jokingly said made her quite unique. And on this bloody finger, in exactly the same place, Jiang Li could not possibly mistake it.
She composed herself, unfolded the letter to read it, scanned it quickly, and then handed the letter to Situ Jiuyue.
The letter stated that Jiang Li had to find a way to leave the city tonight on her own. After leaving the city, she should head twenty miles to the east, where there was a village, and someone would be waiting to meet her at the entrance of the village. If Jiang Li did not go, by dawn she would receive Hai Tang’s corpse, and by the second day, Xue Zhao’s corpse, and so on until everyone was killed. Jiang Li was also not to think about informing the authorities or taking people to the place where she was supposed to leave the city. There were informants in Yanjing City, and if Jiang Li brought people with her, the five members of the Ye Family could disappear from this world in an instant.
The words on the letter were also blood-drenched, as if written with fresh blood, revealing the madness of the person who wrote it.
After Situ Jiuyue finished reading the letter, she said spitefully, "Scum!"
Jiang Li stared at the finger on the table, her eyes aching from the sight. This was a dilemma for Jiang Li. If she left the city, she would inevitably become a bargaining chip to threaten Jih Heng. If she did not leave, the crazed person would vent their anger upon the Ye Family members.
She gritted her teeth, "I will go out of the city!"
"Jiang Li!" Situ Jiuyue said softly, "This is their trick."
"We have no other choice, Jiuyue, can you really watch Xue Zhao die with your own eyes?"
