Midnight Anchorwoman - C107

Humans are like this. Only after suffering from hardships can I truly understand what I was at fault for. It is a pity that I no longer have any room for regret.

The hands gripped my neck like pincers, and the fear of death washed over me, making my struggles seem all the more feeble. The flashlight I’d been holding in my hand clattered to the ground.

I heard a grunt from the man behind me, and then I fell forward.

I could not imagine that the man had let go of both my hands.

I was still conscious, crawling forward as I hit the ground. Suddenly my left leg was grabbed again, and after a few kicks I couldn’t free myself. I felt the flashlight.

Cough cough cough, I actually heard a series of coughs. There’s someone behind me, so who’s the one grabbing my legs? This cough sounded very old, and didn’t seem to come from a strong young man at all.

I sat up and gripped the flashlight tightly. As I turned my head, I saw that there really was someone standing behind me.

The savage looking fellow that was pinching my neck had already fallen to the ground. I could vaguely see that the person behind me was holding a huge black object in his hand.

I stared back with both my legs, trying my best to breathe. At that time, I actually didn’t even have the strength to stand up. If that person wanted to kill me, I wouldn’t even have the strength to resist.

“It’s you.”

It was the same person who had met me today and told me to leave this place. In my mind, that person had never left the area next to the gate. There was a small house there, and that old man should be living there.

“Get up.” The old man said to me that he had knocked him down, and I was relieved. After all, he was part of the company.

His head was covered in blood, making him look a little scary. His hand was still tightly grabbing onto my leg. “He couldn’t have been beaten to death by you, right?”

“No, even if I’m beaten to death, I deserve it. Can you still get up?” The old man’s voice was clearly anxious. I didn’t know what he was worried about, so I kicked him a few times before I broke free of his hand and stood up.

“I’ll call the police right now.”

“I can’t call the police.”

I was stunned. Now that this person stole something from the company, he still wants to kill me? Of course I’m calling the police, why would the guard have such a big reaction?

“Why?” I asked, puzzled.

“Someone will take care of this. If you call the police then it will be troublesome. Listen to me, we will go to the dorm now and pretend nothing happened. Remember, no matter who asks, you can’t talk about this, including that girl.”

This is the second time the old man mentioned Xu Bing, I really can’t understand why she would think that Xu Bing would harm me. Although Xu Bing and An Xia have been a little close recently, it’s not a big deal, it’s just making an extra friend.

“Alright.” I promised. The old man handed me his phone, and he couldn’t help but remind me, “Remember, don’t tell anyone about what happened tonight. You have to keep it to your stomach.”

I nodded and walked out, my whole body aching. I didn’t know what was going on here, I didn’t want to tell anyone, at least he knew, why he kept this secret for me, could it really be because he knew my grandmother so simply?

I even had a strange premonition that he should have been here all the time to help me. Coming out of the office, I kept to the shadows as fast as I could, and I felt that the old man was right. No matter what, I must not be seen.

What was that man looking for in the 404 live broadcast room? Why did you smash the machine I used? Even if I found him, he wouldn’t kill me. He squeezed my neck so hard that he wanted to strangle me to death.

I gave a start. Just now, I really did a circle around the gates of hell. If that old man hadn’t appeared, I would definitely have been strangled to death. I suddenly stopped because there seemed to be someone standing in front of me.

I didn’t want anyone to see me, so I decided to just hide in the shadows. I stared at the person in front of me, my mind still thinking about what had just happened, and it was indeed weird, and all of this happened after fat director went missing. Could it be that everything was related to his disappearance?

This should be a form of protection. Even though I like to be a tiger sometimes, I still have some brains. If there really is a secret behind this, or a conspiracy, then some people would kill those who knew about it in order to keep it a secret.

The person in front of us is actually standing right below our dormitory. I raised my head and looked up. I’m a bit curious, what is he looking at?!

The dorm room under the cover of night was even darker, just like the first time I saw it, the entire company was covered in a layer of grey. I really couldn’t imagine, since this company had a certain amount of power, why didn’t they take out some funds to repair the building.

There was nothing I could do but squat there in the dark, not daring to move. Looking at the shadow standing below me, I felt my hair standing on end. It was already past one in the morning, so I couldn’t imagine what he was looking at.

At that time, every hair on his body had stood up, and when the cold wind blew, it was especially cold. The wind kept drilling into his clothes.

I really wanted to sneeze, so I quickly buried my nose between my legs and covered my face with my hands. I finally managed to hold back my sneeze. When I raised my head again, the person standing below me had already left.

I still didn’t dare move. If that person didn’t go far, or was hiding in the dark, wouldn’t it mean that I would be like a sheep in a tiger’s den if I went out now? I squatted for almost half an hour to make sure that the person was gone before I dared to stand up.

No one! The next moment, I used all my strength and ran in. I climbed up to the third floor in one go. The whole room was dead silent. I quickly walked in. With a creak, my heart almost jumped out of my chest.

There’s a corner inside, so I decided to just stick close to it. The corridor was very dark, and I saw a person walking out from it, and it was actually An Xia.

An Xia moved in front of Xu Bing’s and my dorm room. I saw her take something in her hand and slip it through the gap in the door, but An Xia’s actions were so strange that she didn’t notice me while I was hiding in the dark. Very quickly, An Xia returned to the dorm.

I walked out of the darkness and couldn’t help but take a look at the door of An Xia’s dormitory. I was very curious, just what exactly did she stuff in there, and when I opened the door, Xu Bing was fast asleep. I squatted down, and then started to feel on the ground, and actually let me touch something that looked like a name card.

I took it in my hand and crawled forward until I was under the table. Slowly I got up and put my bag on top of it and began to untie my clothes, and I made the quilt and pretended to get out of bed and went into the bathroom and, as the light inside came on, I opened the paper in my hand and saw that there was a change of plan written on it.
