"Yuri!" Call Allen. It seemed like he realized something was strange but unfortunately Yuriel who was too panicked could not hear the call from Allen.
"Sir Yuna!!" Yuriel constantly called out the name of Liyuna, her body was shaking so violently.
"YURI!!"
Allen shouted with all his might, he put both his hands on Yuriel's shoulders and made her look at each other. Hearing a loud voice from Allen, Yuriel began to regain her senses, she looked at Allen's face and tried to normalize her breathing.
"Tell me slowly."
Yuriel took a deep breath and started telling stories from the beginning when she woke up and did not find Liyuna, then how she heard the gunshots.
"You sure it was gunshots?"
"Of course I'm very sure, I can't possibly forget that voice. And that's the voice anyway..." Yuriel did not continue her words but Allen understood what she wanted to say because Yuriel had told her everything.
"What?! A shot? That's impossible!" Yvette, who heard Yuriel's words, closed her mouth in surprise.
He did not expect that they would be involved in such a big matter.
"Are they targeting Yuna?" Ask Yvette.
The only thing he could think of was, Liyuna who was the target since she was the future legitimate heir of Castris Group and one of the esteemed members of the Castris family.
"Everyone calm down. First of all, call the Castris family, do whatever it takes to connect. As we can see, Liyuna is not in the villa nor is Kak Noel. It's possible that Liyuna is being protected by Noel's sister and is fine." Allen said, he tried to give instructions to Yvette and Yuriel so that the two could stop panicking.
"I'll call the Castris family." Yvette offered to.
Yuriel gave Yvette her phone so she could contact the Castris family immediately, while Allen was checking around the villa, hoping for a hint of Liyuna's whereabouts.
Yuriel also went to check around the villa, he went around the lake but did not manage to find anything.
Yvette tried calling Sara's number and Karl's but none of them picked up. Yvette was very confused and did not know what to do, but she suddenly remembered that the Castris residence had a phone directly connected to the butler.
"Hello, with the Castris residence. Can I help you?"
"Ah, hello good night. This is Yvette Vlisha. We need help, precisely at the Alkelan lake. Miss Liyuna Aria Castris is in danger. Send in the search force immediately."
"We'll get to the head of the Castris family soon, please don't turn the line off."
Hearing Yvette's remark, the butler immediately tried to contact Karl with an emergency number.
A few minutes later, Karl picked up the phone and the butler immediately told him what Yvette had to say. Hearing the explanation from the butler, Karl immediately called for special personnel to carry out the evacuation and search. He left the meeting room in a great hurry and immediately slid onto the scene.
Karl's face looked very unkind, he was so worried about Liyuna because he himself was not sure if help could come on time or not because of the distance Castris residence and the villa where Liyuna was vacationing quite far even though it was still the same in the city of Elishien.
"What about Yuriel?" Ask Karl who is currently connected to Yvette directly without intermediaries.
"Yuriel is fine. Only Yuna has disappeared."
"You stay calm and don't turn off the phone. Help will be here soon."
Yvette could only answer "hum" when Karl said that. Right now his strength was like being sucked in by a black hole and he felt extremely tired.
Allen, who had now entered the forest, began to look for Liyuna's whereabouts by using a flashlight on his phone. Her steps came to a halt when she found Liyuna's scarf that was very dirty and torn.
His eyes narrowed, he took the scarf and tried to look around.
He stopped right in front of a tree that was quite large, he held the trunk of the tree and saw there was a hole in it.
'Brink hole.'
Allen began to panic a little after confirming that the voice Yuriel heard was actually the sound of gunfire. He tried to see the state around the tree and was finally able to breathe a little in relief as there were no blood clots in this place.
On the other hand, Yuriel walked into the forest opposite to Allen. He tried to look for traces of Liyuna but did not find any clues. As Yuriel went in a little deeper, her footsteps came to a halt when she saw someone lying on the ground.
Immediately, Yuriel approached the person to see his face.
"Sister Noel!"
***
He exhaled slowly, trying to minimize his aching chest from being hit by a rock as he fell onto a cliff. After he felt his body a little stronger, he opened his two eyes slowly.
His gaze was still very blurry, he could only see dry leaves and twigs falling to the ground. There was not the slightest illumination in the place where Liyuna had fallen so it was difficult for her to know her current position.
When both of her eyes had adjusted the incoming light, Liyuna let out the ground in her mouth with a spit. Although not perfectly clean, at least his mouth is not too tasteful of soil.
Liyuna held onto the part of her body that was very sick. He could feel there were a lot of scratches from falling from the cliff, fortunately the cliff where Liyuna fell was not too high so the wound was not too severe.
Liyuna tried to stand up but it turned out that her right leg was sprained, it was difficult for her to stand let alone walk. Despite the difficulties, Liyuna still forced herself to walk. He stared at the cliff where he had fallen for a moment and decided to find another way out.
Liyuna walked a little limping, she tried to find a place where there was light but along the way Liyuna did not find it.
A few minutes passed, though not very clear, Liyuna saw a light at the end of the forest.
'What is a village where residents live?'
Liyuna walked towards the light while enduring the pain.
He must not be weak, he must endure. Liyuna in the game didn't die at 12 so she had to be optimistic.
Liyuna did not find what she was looking for after being close to the light she had just seen. No villages, no citizens . The light came from a small house made of rusty iron scraps. Liyuna looked at the few men who had large muscular bodies wearing all-black clothes. Unlike the clothes of the people who had chased Lucas, the people in front of Liyuna wore black shirts and matching training pants. Their faces are also covered by a black mask or scarf with matching colors.
But that is not what makes Liyuna surprised but in their hands there are firearms. The firearms they carried were not ordinary firearms, but the AK-74. Longer barrel smiles are more dangerous than revolvers.
Liyuna hid behind a boulder and tried to calm down. If he can't calm down then he'll be in danger.
"How's the mission?"
"It seems like a failure, the target suddenly disappeared."
"Based on the report, the guards were successfully.paralyzed."
"In that case, why did you lose your target?"
A person who seemed to be the leader of the group asked a man who was now sitting resignedly on the ground. At first Liyuna did not see the person because he was blocked by the hang stone he used as a hiding place but he began to realize the presence of the person when the person groaned in pain.
Liyuna saw her stomach look very wet, very contrasted with other parts.
A person who looked like the leader kicked the man sitting on the ground right on his wet stomach. The person is seen enduring the excruciating pain while holding onto his stomach.
When she raised her hand, Liyuna could see a deep red color. At once Liyuna also realized that it was blood, the person sitting on the ground was injured and his stomach seemed to be hollow to bleed quite a lot.
"How could you fail? Not only did you let the target escape but you were also injured by a guard who was not even an official bodyguard. It's embarrassing."
"I'm sorry chairman, I didn't expect that a driver in the Castris family had such a great ability to fight."
"I don't want to hear excuses. The point is I've failed, you know what the result of failure is?"
That person seemed resigned, he did not challenge or fight. Ever since he first decided to do this job, he already knew the risks.
Failure means death.
Hearing the conversation just now, Liyuna realized something. The driver they were referring to was definitely Noel. Liyuna could not hide her fear this time.
'They managed to hurt Noel's brother.'
Liyuna tried to get away from this place but not yet two steps away, she heard a gunshot that was so loud in her ear.
Dor...
The body of the man sitting on the ground suddenly fell completely. Both of his eyes were still open and in his head was a bullet piercing through. His face began to be moistened by fresh blood coming out profusely through his hollow forehead. Seeing this incident before his eyes, Liyuna could not calm down.
He reflexively moved backwards and tried to run but suddenly his body was locked from behind and someone covered his mouth with a palm.
Liyuna's small body was forced to bow and forced to go back into hiding behind a rock. Liyuna tried to rebel but her strength was not strong enough.
"Swtchschhh.."
