Tangled Up In Blue novel Chapter 110

Boom … Splash …

Poppi cursed at the damn weather and ran out of the cram school. She put her schoolbag on top of her head and rushed all the way to the bus station. She didn't want her classmates to find out that she had left alone. She didn't take an umbrella with her at the sudden severe rain. What a bad luck. 'I guess I'll go to the cram school for her tomorrow. She doesn't have to pretend to be sick, or she'll be really sick!' she thought!

There was no one on the street because of the rain. Only a few Mercedes Benz cars were shuttling quickly. With the lonely street lights, it seemed more empty and lonely.

"Clang!"

"Ah!" A car passed by with a stream of water splashed all over Poppi's body. She quickly pulled her skirt and jumped to the roadside, looking annoyed.

On the roadside, there happened to be a big tree, so Poppi quickly stood under the tree and screwed the water on her dress.

Bowwow … Woof …

When Poppi raised her arm to wipe the water from her face, She heard the helpless groans of little animals from the tall grass beside the tree. Poppi stopped immediately and listened carefully.

"Woof … Bow-wow... "

Not long after, a soft voice came from the grass, which made it more pitiful in the rain. It should be a puppy, right?

Seeing this, Poppi could not help feeling sympathetic for it as she knew that she only loved dogs. On her way to school, she only saw stray dogs and she had to buy some food to feed them. In the end, the dogs around the school always stood their tails up when they saw her. Someone bullied her, and a group of dogs ran up to chase them away. The scene was spectacular. If her father didn't stop her, she would take all the stray dogs home.

One of the reasons why her father didn't allow her to keep a dog was that Celine was allergic to animals.

It seemed that Poppi did not care about the rain at all and her clothes at all. She put her schoolbag aside, squatted down and went into the grass. She then slowly followed the sound to find the source of the voice. She gently said: "don't be afraid, puppy. Where are you?"

Some hard wood branches in the grass blocked her way, and her face and body were scratched.

Poppi lowered her hat and adjusted her mask. She knelt down on the ground and climbed into the grass bit by bit. The grass was a little high enough to cover the whole body of Poppi.

"Woof, woof, woof..."

The sound of the dog was in front of her, and she was so happy that she hurriedly pushed away a large leaf in front of her and called, "puppy..."

The smile on Poppi's face suddenly froze as soon as she pushed away the leaves. All of a sudden, her eyes met a cold sight which was like a sharp knife staring at her in a rainy night.

Is there a man hiding here?!

All of a sudden, Poppi was out of breath and was about to scream, but before she could open her mouth, a bright light flashed in front of her eyes and with a sound of whipping, a bright dagger held out on her neck in an instant. The man in front of her slowly said in a ferocious, weak voice, "my dagger is so sharp. If you dare to scream, it will cut your throat."

It was a man! Poppi suddenly shut up. She was so scared that her body stiffened and was still trembling slightly.

"Bow-wow..." The dog whimpered beside the man's elbow.

The next second when Poppi felt the rage from the man, she saw this man move his hand and the knife was stabbed in the direction of the puppy.

"Oh, no!" Poppi grabbed the man's arm all of a sudden, "you … What are you doing? "

The man gasped and the knife in his hand fell to the ground feebly. He fell to the ground as well.

When she was about to reach for the knife, her hand was grabbed by the man opposite her. His hand was as strong as an iron rope which hurt his arm.

"Even so, killing you is as easy as killing an ant for me!" The man's voice was fierce and loud in the rain, but he still sounded young.

The grass was dark. Poppi could only see the man's eyes and nodded with trembling, but she felt her hands were sticky. She rubbed her sticky hand with the other hand and smelled blood …

"You... You are injured?" Poppi was shocked and became more afraid. What a unlucky night! She was going to have this kind of thing! 'Will he kill me?' 'No, I'm just eighteen years old. I don't want to die yet!'

The man snorted and did not speak.

"Where... Where did you get hurt?" Poppi didn't know why she asked this question all of a sudden, so she quivered her hands to feel the man's arm. Just after she touched it a few times, the man took a deep breath.

"You are injured in the rain. You will get a fever." Poppi said in low voice. Poppi was so kind-hearted that she suddenly picked up the knife and looked at it for a long time. Then she pulled her skirt and made a deep cut with the knife. In the darkness, she touched the wound on the man's body and carefully bound it up.

The dog whimpered, looking so pitiful.

"You go there to look for him!"

"Damn it! Where is she? "
