The footsteps lasted for an entire minute. Just as Jin Qingyan was about to speak, he heard a faint wailing and bawling, which added to the spookiness of the rainy night.
There was a mix of male and female voices, as well as that of the elderly, all of which were rather unsettling.
This time, the voices lasted for a whole five minutes.
Once the voices began to fade, An Xiaoning pulled him out of the canal.
She quickened her pace and walked forward.
Jin Qingyan didn't dare to ask about anything and instead sped forward with her.
He could tell from the sounds that they were approaching a search crew. Just as Jin Qingyan was worrying about being discovered, An Xiaoning stopped in her tracks and hid in an obscure spot with him.
At this moment, Jin Qingyan heard the rumbling of a car!
Once the car drove away, An Xiaoning looked at him, after which they both moved away from the darkness.
