When Lin Sanjiu saw the shadow of the man's hat, she leaned forward and fell into the pothole in front of her. Water splashed everywhere. She twisted her body around and felt a warmth spreading across her back and then pain. Apparently, she had been slashed. Before she even turned her head, she threw a kick behind her. As the man behind her staggered backward, Lin Sanjiu pushed herself up and ran.
There was a black silhouette standing in the shadows of the alley behind her.
Wearing a hat and hiding in the shadows made it difficult for anyone to see the man's face. However, when the man thrust his knife down and realized that he missed the woman, he was taken aback. The person gasped once before he finally turned around and rushed back into the darkness behind him. He disappeared in a blink of an eye.
Lin Sanjiu wanted to chase after him, but she stopped immediately. It was a dark and rainy night so the alley was simply too dark for her to see anything.
