The car moved slowly in the wide driveway, as if it was deliberately waiting for someone.
As for who they were waiting for, Huo Ru didn't even have to think about it. They were actually pretending to be passersby, forcing her not to even dare to ask for help from the cars on the road.
It was true that she couldn't continue walking on the highway, but the forest was dark and she couldn't confirm where she was. Moreover, the terrain of the forest was rugged and uneven, it was too difficult for her to continue walking down the mountain in high heels and a dress.
If she went out now, she would be walking into a trap. She might as well squat down and rest.
She had to go out before dawn. Who knew if they would come to the forest to search again after dawn?
The red car slowly drove up again, casually, not looking around at all.
Good chance!
Huo Ru wanted to take the opportunity to climb down. According to her estimation, the driver would only return after 10 minutes. She would run down at this time and wait for the driver to come before hiding in the forest. After a few rounds of this, she would be able to reach the main road.
As long as she reached the main road, there were many ways to run home.
She carefully walked out of the forest. The place she was standing on was much higher than the flat terrain beside her. Her vision was bad, and she was in a hurry, so she didn't notice at all. She missed her footing and fell on her back.
A sharp stone was pointed at her face. Fortunately, Huo Ru subconsciously supported herself with her hand when she fell. The stone stopped a few centimeters away from her eyes, Huo Ru quickly rolled to the side so that she wouldn't be disfigured.
Even so, her injuries could not be underestimated. She had used her hand as a pestle when she fell, and now her hand was numb with pain. She wondered if she had hurt herself too badly and her foot had been sprained. Any movement she made now would be heart-wrenching, let alone the wounds on her body caused by the branches and small stones which were considered light injuries.
Fortunately, the driver who was looking for her drove up and did not notice her movements, which made Huo Ru heave a sigh of relief.
There was no time to feel uncomfortable now. Huo Ru limped down the mountain, and she even dodged two cars.
She stumbled down and was almost on the main road.
There was actually a police officer standing at the spot where the main road and the road on the mountain met. Huo Ru's nerves were completely relaxed. She almost walked out with tears in her eyes and shouted, "Officer!"
The policeman turned around. The moment Huo Ru saw him, alarm bells went off in her heart. She turned and ran.
"What do you want?" the policeman asked as he walked toward her.
This person was definitely not a police officer! His uniform was casually worn, and his badge was that of a third-grade lieutenant. A third-grade lieutenant who was not dressed properly was waiting on a lonely path in the middle of the night? Even his hat was crooked.
However, she was injured and ran too slowly. She was caught up in three to five steps.
The police officer sneered. "Miss, please go back yourself. We've been looking for you all night."
He gripped Huo Ru's arm tightly, making Huo Ru feel that her hand was hurting so much that it didn't feel like hers.
"Let go of me!" Huo Ru struggled. The police officer did not move and even tightened his grip. It felt like he was venting his anger.
Seeing that he had taken out his walkie-talkie to report, Huo Ru gritted her teeth and kicked his lower body when he was unprepared.
She did not retract her strength this time. The man did not expect Miss Huo to still have the strength to struggle in such a state, so he cried out in pain and let go of her hand. Huo Ru quickly broke free. Her hand was already bruised from his grip, and it was even more terrifying against her snow-white skin.
There was no time to think about this now!
Huo Ru ran toward the main road. It was fine as long as a car saw her! If she could call for help, it would be better than being caught here.
The police officer couldn't move for a long time, but he still took out his walkie-talkie and said, "01, this is 02. Missy is here."
Huo Ru also heard the fake police call, she gritted her teeth. If she didn't run now, they would reach this place in a few minutes at most and capture her. She could lie to her father once, but it wouldn't be so easy the second time.
In front, a car was driving towards her. Behind her, the recovered bodyguard was also running towards her.
Before she could call for help, someone grabbed her wrist and sealed her mouth tightly.
Could it be that this was it?
