Chapter 172 After the Old House Caught Fire (22)

It is deep and silent in the night.

Yu Baobao was walking on the deserted street. When the cold wind blew, she couldn't help but shiver again. She hugged herself tightly and looked around with fear. In the distance was endless darkness, which made it obvious that there was unavoidable danger in there.

Now only the dim lights on the roadside can give her a sense of security.

Yu Baobao didn't know how she appeared on this street. She clearly remembered that she was with Damien. Because she was really scared in this unfamiliar environment, Damien had been taking care of her emotions. Even at night, he would stay with her in her room.

But tonight, it seemed that at the moment the moon rose, in a moment of distraction, when she opened her eyes again, she was already alone on this desolate street.

Yu Baobao was panicking. It was at this moment that she suddenly realized that she had unknowingly become accustomed to having Damien by her side. Now that Damien was gone, she was panic-stricken and didn't know what to do.

Suddenly, a man's scream came from somewhere, and Yu Baobao was so scared that his body trembled.

The screams echoed in the night sky, and the smell of blood that came with the wind was even more pungent, making one's scalp tingle.

We must find Damien quickly!
Yu Baobao instinctively chose the left side at the fork in the alley. She wanted to shout Damien's name loudly, but was afraid of attracting danger. She stumbled all the way and finally saw a familiar figure in front of her.

"How terrible!" The bright-faced woman threw herself beside Damien. She held Damien's hand tightly as if she had grabbed a life-saving straw. This pitiful woman was afraid that she would be abandoned.

Damien was still calm, "Ms. Vicky, we are still safe for now, you don't have to be so nervous."

Vicky was about to cry. "How could I not be nervous? That monster just now...it killed my friend right in front of my eyes. You saw it, too, didn't you? That monster...it was so scary!"

Damien frowned, obviously thinking of that cruel scene.

The big man holding the butcher knife smashed the man named Abel into pieces with just one blow. The scene of blood and flesh splattering is still fresh in our memory.

It was that bloody scene that made Damien realize how terrible the situation was. In this hellhole, law and order were gone, and everyone had only one goal, which was to survive.

Vicky cried, "If it wasn't for saving me, Abel wouldn't have died... It's all my fault. I killed him."

The moment the moon rose, Vicky also separated from her two companions. They were not the first to participate in the full moon night, so they had made an agreement before that once they were separated, they had to find a way to find each other quickly.

Vicky and Abel found each other first, and when they tried to find Andre, they were attacked.

Abel looks very brave on weekdays, but when it comes to this moment, he is just a coward who is afraid of death.

He wanted to leave Vicky alone and run away, but Vicky pushed him to the ground, making him the victim who gave her time to escape.

And then, Damien showed up.

Since Vicky pushed the troublesome Abel to death, she needs a new backup to fill Abel's vacancy, and Damien is a good choice.

Of course Vicky knew that Damien and Yu Baobao had a special relationship, but so what?

In this world, everyone only wants to survive, and no one cares about things like morality.

Vicky cried even harder, unable to control herself. She swayed, and Damien subconsciously reached out to hold her arm. "Are you okay?"

Vicky raised her tearful eyes and smiled firmly, "I'm fine. I'm sorry for causing you trouble."

Damien couldn't help but think of Baby Yu.

Yu Baobao looks weak, but she is stronger than anyone else. Even though her status and position are not equal to Damien's, she has never looked down on herself. No matter how much she loves Damien, she always maintains her own self.

It is because Yu Baobao has such a noble soul that she is as bright and dazzling as the sun.

Vicky was just a fragile woman, and she must have been horrified when she saw her friend being brutally murdered.

Thinking of this, Damien's expression eased a little. Just as he was about to speak, Yu Baobao's voice came from not far away.

"Damien!"

Damien was slightly stunned, "Baby!"

He ran over ecstatically and held Yu Baobao's hand, "That's great, you're okay."

Yu Baobao forced herself to laugh, but she couldn't help but look in Vicky's direction. She knew very well that she was not Damien's wife and had no right to be jealous, but now she couldn't help but care about the woman who was close to Damien.

Vicky was very familiar with such gazes, but she pretended not to feel them and said, "I'm glad that Miss Yu is safe. Damien kept mentioning you when you were away. He was really worried about you. You must be very important in his heart."

Damien glanced at Vicky a little longer, and his eyes were no longer as cold as before. It was obvious that because of Vicky's words, he felt a little better about her.

Yu Baobao took the initiative to hold Damien's hand. She asked, "Ms. Vicky seems to have been here longer than us. You must know more information, such as why we are here now and what we need to do."

Vicky couldn't stand Yu Baobao's domineering attitude. She took a step back, looking a little nervous and uneasy. "Actually...actually, I've only been here a few days longer than you guys..."

Damien whispered to Yu Baobao: "She just got frightened."

What this means is that Yu Baobao needs to be careful about the way he speaks.

Yu Baobao bit her lip and softened her voice, "Then you should know more than us."

Vicky said: "I've only heard that this is a foggy world. Every full moon night, the monsters living here will start killing people, and we can only try to survive."

Yu Baobao's face turned pale and he looked up at Damien.

Damien comforted her, "Baby, I'm here. I'll protect you."

Yu Baobao nodded. The obedient and gentle girl looked so trusting in him that she was very lovable.

Vicky looked sarcastic.

She noticed that Damien was wearing a ring, but Yu Baobao didn't have one, so it was obvious what their relationship was.
