บท 49: Forty-eight, Captured

Luo Shu had just stepped out of the courtyard when a little boy ran towards her.

"Sister, a man asked me to give this to you." The boy spoke with candy in his mouth, his words murky, as he handed Luo Shu a slip of paper.

Luo Shu took the note, glanced at the content on the paper, and slipped it into her pocket. The other party knew her itinerary so well, it seemed someone was secretly monitoring her.

Scanning her surroundings, Luo Shu withdrew her gaze and hid the chill in her eyes, walking towards the location agreed upon in the note. She was quite eager to see what the other party had in store for her.

The agreed location was an abandoned cattle shed on the outskirts, desolate with few people ever visiting.

As Luo Shu pushed open the wooden door of the cattle shed, she immediately felt danger and hastily retreated two steps back.

With a swift gust of wind, a thick wooden stick whizzed past in front of Luo Shu's eyes.
