Chapter 23: Gaining a New Me sun overhead roasted everything with its intense heat Once she stepped out of the vehicle, the torrid heat i difficult There was still wind in this Hyperthermal Hell, but it would be better if there weren’t Every bout of as as if a pot of red hot coal had been thrown at their face

After they had got out of their vehicles, Luther and Marcie’s brows furrowed deeply as they covered their noses and mouths Ever since all the plants and trees have died out, the soil degraded into sand under the high heat due to desertification The wind stirred up thick clouds of yellow sand wreaking havoc upon the land Their eyebrows and eyelashes were all covered with sand particles, so it was difficult for them to open their eyes They could only squint as they looked around

Once Marcie opened herdue to the sand before she ed to say a feords, “Are you sure? I was at the back; but I didn’t spot any other cars behind us”

When Lin Sanjiu got down frorabbed a T-shirt and tied it to her face using it as a mask, so she feltthe pain fro yellow sand which lashed continuously at her exposed skin, Lin Sanjiu said quietly, ”I a us for some time But the sandstorm is really bad, and it is quite some distance fro!”

When she finished her sentence, they indeed spotted a car so up a trail of dust A Citroën so dirty that its color was indistinguishable, drove out of the churning storm of sand

Unexpectedly, when the driver saw that the three large vehicles had stopped, and Lin Sanjiu and her gang were in the middle of the road, the person braked sharply and turned his head as if he planned to escape Unfortunately, the distance between the car and the three vehicles was too near, so this wasn’t up to the driver Lin Sanjiu sprinted forward and sped up and, before the Citroën could turn away, she leaped onto the hood of the like leopard

The hood of the car dipped which shocked the driver of the Citroën Its wheelsscreech, and the driver inside shouted vaguely Lin Sanjiu was rocked by the movement of the car, so she quickly laid low on the hood stabilizing herself before she yelled toward the car interior, “Get out!”

Within a blink of an eye, Luther and Marcie also rushed forward and surrounded the Citroën together with Lin Sanjiu The car stopped, and its engine was cut

Through the dirty windscreen, Lin Sanjiu could see the vague outlines of a person She could not tell if it was aor old It was incomprehensible how that person could still drive with such visibility She had waited for a while before she knocked on the windscreen with her police baton iet out of his car

If she was not wrong, the car had been following the mall

The car door at the side of the driver seat opened Aa crumpled western suit wiped his forehead as he stepped out

The man looked like he was only about twenty plus He wasn’t tall, and his skin was tanned He had a round fleshy face, and the white shirt that he earing was now a dirty, blackish yellow Lin Sanjiu did not knohy, but she felt that if he had soh his suit looked like it was ood material, it did not see for hith socks

“Who are you? Why are you following us?” Marcie questioned with a frown

The vole-like man moved his tar-black little eyes and looked at the three of them panic-strickenly before he stammered, “ It… It wasn’t on purpose”

Luther scoffed at him, “So you accidentally followed us all the way here?”

Lin Sanjiu juripped the police baton and stood in front of the car not saying a word The ot off his car, he i some distance between himself and her At the same time, he anxiously explained, “No, no Listen to my explanation I’ve actually seen all of you much earlier I don’t ht, I had just finished entertaininge, and ere stuck in the ja mall…”

“Get to theher temper as they were tormented by the sand

“Ahh… yes, yes Anyere stuck in front of the shopping et down from the car We relied only on the carton of drinks in the car for two days… I saw the few of you a couple of ti You seemed to have adapted so quickly, it was impressive!” when the man explained to this point, he even re that they did not react, he spat out the sand in his ly Then, he continued, “After that, on one night, a rather good-looking woman came to us She said that she had water at hoet some water I was distracted for a moment, and suddenly, my client disappeared! The women left and continued to the next car!”

The three of the Yun did not show mercy to the survivors ere on that street outside

When the man saw their expression, he pushed his luck and continued, “I did not dare to remain in the car, so I ran to the convenient store that was across the road I , I saw all of you leaving I was afraid too, so I followed behind…”

“What’s your na to feel a little annoyed as the -winded
