The mountain path was not easy to walk on.
Melody was sweating from the exertion as she headed in a certa direction with a strong sense of purpose. "Soon, soon. It's just ahead. It's not far now.
It was indeed not far away, Tiffany gave a scornful laugh.
Just 1000 feet away, under the cover of the fallen leaves in the limboo forest, was a very deep pit that had been dug recently. It was filled with snakes....
Melody wanted to lure Tiffany to the snake pit and let her fall into it, whereupon she would be bitten to death by the venomous snakes, On the mountain, such pits were common as villagers often used them to trap prey.
If Tiffany fell into one such pit, people would simply treat the incident as an accident and not murder.
If Sandra and Melody wanted to be more ruthless, they could also quickly backfill the pit after she fell in After spreading a layer of dead leaves over it, no one would know the existence of that pit.
No matter how many people trudged up and down the mountain, they would never know that a body was buried under their feet.
What a good plant How ruthless! And also downright stupid! Tiffany flexed her wrist as a sinister and mocking smile crept across her face.
After arriving at the destination, Melody searched around anxiously. The flashlight beam swept back and forth on the ground until finally, she found a small flag with reflective neon paint.
She had found the markerl This flag was the marker that Melody had agreed with Sandra beforehand. The deep pit was located directly under the flag All Melody had to do was to lure Tiffany bit by bit to that spot. The moment she stepped on it, the ground would give way and Tiffany would fall into the deep pit.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe venomous snakes that had been waiting down there for a long tbelow would quickly finish her off. Tiffany would never stand a chance of survival against those venomous snakes.
Melody suppressed the smile on her face. Seeing that victory was in her grasp, she could not afford to make any mistakes at this critical moment.
Thus, with an anxious expression, she suggested, "Benny was playing around here. I don't know how he is now. Why don't we look for him separately?" The moonlight was hazy, and the shadows of the trees swayed.
Tiffany stood where she was. No one could see the expression on her face clearly. Only her dark and bright eyes were shining with a sparkling light.
"Sure," Tiffany answered with an extremely faint smile.
Then, under Melody's nervous gaze, she walked forward. One step, two steps, three steps.
Her pace was leisurely as she searched around the bamboo fores. She did not notice that she was getting increasingly closer to the small neon flag and the deep pit beneath the flag....
Just two more steps... Melody's palm was sweating as she gripper the flashlight nervously.
To Melody's surprise. Tiffany stopped when she was two steps away from the deep pit.
She spoke unhurriedly as if she was lamenting to herself. "It's late at night and there's no one around. It's the perfect tto commit crimes." "Wh-what?" Melody's heart skipped a beat.
Had Tiffany Had Tiffany discovered something? Why did she suddenly say something like that? Tm just joking. Why are you so nervous?" Tiffany turned back and continued searching the bamboo forest for Benny her flashlight There was no one else around and Tiffany's back was facing Melody. This was the perfect tto make her move...
Melody steeled her heart. Since Tiffany refused to take the final two steps, she would help her.
With this thought in mind, she quietly approached Tiffany from behind.
Melody took the final step forward...
with Suddenly, the ground gave way and Melody fell into the pit. She did not even have tto scream as she landed on the base of the deep pit with a thump.
Only then did she scream belatedly. "Argh! Help!" Melody's screams were shrill and loud, but on the ground above, Tiffany did not seem to hear her. She even muttered to herself. "How did I sleepwalk to the mountain out of the blue?" Then, she shook her head and walked down the mountain leisurely.
Melody could hear the footsteps above her getting softer. However, at this moment, her most immediate worry was. hundreds of venomous snakes that had started slithering toward her.
The scaly creatures gradually closed in on her and began sinking their fangs into her body. "Argh!" Flinching in pain, she tried her best to climb out of the pit, but without the help of any tools, she could not get up from the ten-foot deep pit.
The snake venom gradually spread through Melody's body until she collapsed.
Until this moment, she could not understand why she fell into this pit when the flag was still so far away from her.
Did Sandra want to take the opportunity to get rid of her too? Or was the flag marker moved before she led Tiffany here? Melody was horrified by that thought.
That would mean Tiffany had already seen through her plan and she was the one luring Melody into the trap, wouldn't it? Otherwise, why would she pretend not to hear Melody's screaming and go down the mountain as if nothing had happened? "Argh!" Melody shrieked in despair, but her vicious eyes were getting dimmer by the minute.
A death trap she set up for Tiffany had ironically turned into a burial ground for her.
Rumble...
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThunder rumbled, followed by a sudden rainstorm.
The bright moon becobscured as the heavy rain pelted down on the entire valley.
Tiffany had reached the front yard of the village chief's farmhouse. She was not in a hurry to enter the farmhouse. Instead, she stood quietly under the roof.
She watched for a while before extending her palm into the rain.
After a long while, Tiffany was about to enter the farmhouse which m Kenneth Harper ruske up to her with alblack umbrella Behind him were dozens of his drivers and bodyguards. Kenneth asked her anxiously, "Wait up. Tiffany. Have you seen Melody?" Tiffany stopped in her tracks and turned to Kenneth with a faint smile. “Why are you asking ine when your woman has disappeared?" "That's not what I meant. I just..." Before he could finish, Tiffany cut him off. "I didn't see her." With that, she turned around and entered the farmhouse. Her back profile was slender and straight, exuding an - indescribable air of determination.
Kenneth was a little perplexed. It seemed that every conversation between him and Tiffany would always end on a note confrontation.
He was a little helpless, but he couldn't care less now. He immediately shouted this om sleepy-looking subordinates, “Look for her. Look everywhere. We must find her!" After the feast ended, Kenneth returned to his farmhouse and soon fell asleep.
In the end, he woke up from hunger not long after. The dishes at the feast were not to his liking and he did not eat much. After waking up, he wanted to get something to fill his stomach. ajar. She was not inside at all, He was a little worried that something would happen to her in the mountain, so he woke up all his subordinates to look for However, when he walked out of the room, he saw that the door to Melody's room was a her.
However, even after searching the entire village, they still could not locate her.
A subordinate suggested, "Mr. Harper, we've searched the whole village. Miss Princeton isn't here. Why don't we go up the mountain to take a look?" X
