Truth be told, even in daylight Zheng Tan disapproved Youzi to go into the forest. He had seen too many shady things happening in this patch of woods. Perhaps when the construction on surrounding building blocks had finished and the area began to populate, it would give a sense of belonging for the staffs and students.
The forest was filled with fallen leaves and dead branches, but there were numerous trees of evergreen as well. Nevertheless, secluded areas always gave off a mood of gloom. The views of lush vegetation did not extinguish the sense of rising darkness behind it.
Youzi clenched the rolling pin tight in her hands. Clearly, she was nervous about the idea of entering the "danger zone". They used to come here with Jiao Yuan and his friends, a number of children, plus Jiao Yuan, Xiong Xiong and the boys who were brave, so they didn't feel uneasy.
However, maybe it was because Zheng Tan was leading the way. Despite being alone, she wasn't as frightened as other children.
