Chapter 673
You Hit My Heart
As Joyce drove along the way, she also felt something was wrong. She
seemed to be driving up a slop, and there were more and more turns.
Those oddly shaped weathered rocks looked like they had withstood
the ravaging erosion of the sea wind for years.
Sure enough, as Franklin said, it should be a cliff ahead.
Those turns and twists were actually helpful when she had to stay out
of the shooting range of Ricky.
Only, there seemed to be no way back if she continued to drive ahead.
There was no way out in front, and there were pursuers behind.
She stepped the gas pedal to the floor again and again, holding her jaw
with one hand and frowning as she thought about what to do next.
At the same time, she kept scanning her surroundings, looking for a
place where she could quickly hide later.
Unfortunately, the surroundings were mostly empty and she hadn't
found the boulders Franklin had mentioned.
Suddenly, her pupils contracted and she violently slammed on the
brakes â she had exactly reached the end of the road.
Several red warning posts were erected to stop vehicles from
continuing forward. At the end was a parking field for large vehicles to
turn around.
Joyce finally stopped the car before hitting the warning post. She didn't
hesitate for a moment and flew out of the car. As for the cell phones,
she had left them all in the car to avoid being located by Ricky. The
only thing she carried with her was Karl's gun and the hard drive. She
could tell Ricky that it was the hard drive the forensic center had given
her.
She bent down and ran as fast as she could. Finally, she climbed up
the rocks beside the road and finally hid in the shrubs. For her, dodging
was the best option. As long as the police was here, she would then
have a chance to survive.
Immediately after she left the car.
She heard the "bang-bang-bangâ sound behind her, and the car she
was driving was instantly shot into a sieve.
Ricky and the others must have seen her car come within range and
didn't hesitate to shoot it.
Joyce took a deep breath and was a little scared. What a group of
vicious thugs.
Immediately afterwards she heard a sharp, piercing sound of brakes,
and a jumble of crashes. She thought perhaps they were at such a high
speed and failed to stop their cars in time and their cars crashed into
each other at the end.
Joyce hid in the bushes and began counting. There were about twelve
of them getting out of the car one by one.
The collision just now delayed them for some time.
Joyce took this opportunity to continue to run forward. Finally, she saw
an open space. There were all sand and gravel on the ground, black
and white, coarse and thin.
In front of the open space, there is a stone forest, are some strange-
shaped stones, a seat, a clump, there are high and short, gray and
black stone peaks and pillars head of the sky, like a reckless black
forest.
It should be the place that Franklin was talking about.
She looked back while running quickly forward. Now was the most
dangerous time. She must cross the open space in the shortest
possible time, and once they caught up with her, with no cover around
her, she would certainly die.
Luckily just now she had won some time.
âThere she is! Shoot now!" A killer in back had made it through the
bushes and spotted Joyce at a glance.
"Bang-bang-bang!" Another round of relentless sweeping shots.
Joyce leapt and dodged behind the nearest boulder. Her heart had
leapt to her throat, and behind her, she could even see sparks from the
boulder because of their shooting.
That was so close. Fortunately, she got a head start, otherwise she
would have been killed.
She held Karl's pistol in her hand, the bullets already loaded.
Right now, they were very close to her. Although she had hidden behind
the boulders, there were quite a dozen of them, and once they all came
over to her, she could not hide for long.
Moreover, the trickiest part was that Ricky had a heavy gun in his
hands, which could be fatal to her. They would definitely be inferior to
her if they went one-on-one with her, but even the best shooters could
not withstand a weapon as deadly as a heavy gun.
She had to find a way to protect herself.
Joyce peeked out from behind the boulder and saw a killer darting
wildly this way.
Without thinking, she shot the killer directly in the right chest. She
avoided the heart, but it was enough to send him to the ground
instantly.
"Ah." With a miserable scream, the killer planted himself on the ground
in pain and stopped moving.
Ricky shouted, "Everyone be careful. This woman is a good shot!"
At that, the other killers who wanted to rush over slowed down and
looked for covers. After all, no one wanted to be a target.
When she heard what Ricky just said, she felt it was too familiar, and
she instantly remembered something. In Hill Benjamin, when she was
kidnapped, although the masked man used a voice changer, he said
exactly the same words, " Everyone be careful. This woman is a good
shot! When it gets a little darker, her marksmanship will not work!"
Sure enough, the person who had kidnapped her to Hill Benjamin and
planted a bomb on her, was Ricky.
Unfortunately, it was still early in the day and it was impossible for her
to wait until the night fell.
The only problem was that she didn't have enough bullets in her pistol.
After firing a shot just now, she still had five rounds left.
She did some counting. She had got rid of one of them, so there were
still eleven left.
Since there were hardly enough bullets, she couldn't stop them all.
After a quick thought, she decided to get rid of the heavy weapon first.
She guessed that Ricky knew he was a good shot and must have come
prepared. He must have worn a body armor, and Ricky had always
been very careful about his head. He was indeed a connoisseur of
assassination.
So, she must hurry up now.
Joyce leapt from one boulder to another.
When she left the first boulder, she bet that Ricky would definitely shoot
her.
Sure enough, Ricky didn't hesitate and shot at her with his gun
immediately.
And she, with her long hair flowing in the air during the leap, steadily
held the pistol in her hand, aiming at Ricky.
"Bang-bang-bang!" She shot three shots in a row.
The first shot blocked the bullet that came straight at her, and the other
two shots went straight at the heavy weapon Ricky was holding, one
hitting the clip and the other hitting the muzzle.
In this way, Ricky could not use this heavy gun again. Neither could he
load bullets, nor could he shoot with accuracy.
"Damn it!" Ricky cursed. He had miscalculated. He could never expect
that Joyce's goal was to ruin the gun in his hand, while he focused
solely on protecting his head. Damn woman! She was really something.
Joyce dodged behind another boulder, and a burst of pain came from
her calf. She lowered her head to have a look. The wound was quite
serious with blood gurgling out. She had been very careful just now but
she was still accidentally grazed by the bullet. Fortunately the bullet did
not penetrate her calf.
She knew in her heart that she had two rounds left.
She had to grab a gun from them to doit ...
