Power of Money

Chapter 141

At this moment, Jason and Jenny came out of the woods.

Jenny was still wearing the stockings that were torn by the branches.

Of course, Jason would not let her put on a show then.

In his opinion, it was very humiliating.

When the two of them returned to the stream with dry firewood in their arms, John had already set up the roasting rack. Lusa and Novia were washing vegetables by the river. Colin and Roy had categorized the skewers, smeared them with oil. They could start barbequing once the fire was started.

However, the hole in Jenny's stockings was still very obvious.

Her legs were too pale.

And her knee length stockings were black.

With such an obvious contrast, it was hard for people not to notice.

Especially when she squatted next to the fire, the guys' suddenly cast admiring expressions towards Jason.

The good scenery with the nice weather.

Plus, they gathered with their good friends to bid farewell to their college life.

Jason thought that this must be the taste of youth.

"Jason, you're back. Let's take a photo as a souvenir." Lusa and Novia returned smiling after they finished washing the vegetables.

"Okay, okay. Get into position, I'll take the photos for you."

Jenny happily took out the camera from her bag, pointed it at the other side of the stream, and adjusted the focus.

"Hey? Where are they?"

Then, she let out a sound and turned her head to ask Novia, "Where are the people on the opposite side? Why are they all gone?"

"Yeah, they seemed to have gotten into a quarrel just now. Two girls entered the mountain, and the others drove away," Novia said.

"They're too much. They let the girls stay in the mountains and they went home by themselves. Who will be responsible if something happens?" Jenny said grumpily.

Jason also noticed that the group of people across the stream had disappeared. The car had also been driven away, leaving only two roasting racks and a few bags of unopened ingredients.

"They still left their things there. I'm guessing that they had a small conflict and they'll be back soon. Don't worry about them. Let's take pictures first."

As Jenny spoke, she directed the group to stand at the edge of the stream, taught them a few postures, and then kept pressing down on the shutter.

Snap! Snap!

After Jenny took the photos, Novia immediately came out to replace her.

After a few rounds of photo taking, the fire was ready. Everyone sat around the fire, took out the beer that they had soaked in the stream, and were ready to indulge in their celebration.

"Help, help!"

Splash!

The greenery behind John was suddenly pushed open. A girl in tattered clothes with bloodstains on her body stumbled out and rushed to the front of the crowd.

John was shocked.

With a roar, he jumped up from the ground.

Roy cursed and stood up in a hurry to help the girl who was now lying on the ground.

"What, why is it her?"

Roy looked at the woman in front of him in confusion.

Her whole face was swollen.

It was red, and one could vaguely see the bruising palm print on her skin.

At the same time, there were also scratches on her neck, wrist, and thighs.

Especially her two ankles. They didn't know how she managed to run to that area when her legs seemed to have been dislocated, and looked like they would break off at any time.

"Wasn't she with Sean Chan? How did she go into the mountains and end up in this state?"

Jenny still remembered that when she passed by the creek, Meroy and Sherry were mocking them. Although her face was almost deformed, her long legs were very recognizable.

"Of the two girls I mentioned that went into the forest, one of them is her," Novia said from the side.

"What about the other one?" Jenny asked.

"I don't know. The other girl was in a short red skirt. She is also quite pretty, I think she is also from our university..."

"It's Sherry Lin."

Jason took a gentle inhale and said to Lusa, "Check her legs first and see what's the situation."

"Okay."

Lusa took her backpack and pulled out the first aid kit. She opened it and skillfully removed some emergency supplies and medicine.

Then she knelt on one knee with a serious look and started checking Meroy's injuries.

"Holy crap, you are a doctor..."

Seeing Lusa so skilled with the first aid kit, the people around her couldn't help but be amazed.

Jenny's beautiful eyes were full of surprise, and her hostility towards Lusa lessened.

"She's just exhausted. I guess she ran down from a distance and fractured her calf. I can disinfect her wounds but she has quite a number of scratches and injuries. I'm worried that she may have fallen from somewhere, so she needs to go to a hospital for a check-up, otherwise, there may be other side effects."

As she spoke, Lusa took out disinfectant and medicine from the first aid kit and began to help Meroy disinfect her wounds and stop the bleeding.

"Oh, I forgot to say." Lusa suddenly said, "Most of the wounds on this girl were caused by someone. There are also small scars at the root of her thigh. In view of uncertain factors, we'd better call the police quickly and then leave."

Seeing this group of students staring at her with their mouths agape, Lusa frowned and asked, "Is there any problem?"

"No, no, I'm going to call the police."

"I'll call 911."

"Okay."

"It's really strange."

Lusa shook her head in confusion. She only focused on checking the girl's injuries and explaining her condition, but completely forgot that a beautiful girl like herself, stepping out with her professional medical skills at such a time, was extremely shocking for university students who had not seen much of the world.

"Ah!"

When Lusa was helping Meroy set her bones, she suddenly woke up. Meroy lifted her head and tried to scratch at Lusa's face, but Jason was prepared and pressed her down.

"Thank you."

Lusa took a look at Jason and quickly set Meroy's two dislocated ankles at the same time. Then she turned her head and said, "I have already stopped your bleeding, disinfected and set your bones back in place. I am afraid that it will take a while for the ambulance to arrive. Is there anywhere that still feels uncomfortable?"

"Sherry... Sherry is still in their hands. Hurry up and save her... Hurry up..."

Seeing Meroy anxiously grabbing his hand, Jason frowned and asked, "Where is Sherry now?"

"They are still in the mountains. They took Sherry to the mountains. Please go save her. Please... they are in the mountains..."

Seeing that Meroy was beginning to become incoherent, Jason directly interrupted her and said, "Do you mean that there's more than one person?"

"There are two people. They have knives in their hands. I asked Sherry to leave, but she didn't go. They wanted to do... something to me and Sherry. In order to escape, I bit him down there, but Sherry didn't dare, she, she..."

"Roy Wang, John Huang!" Jason turned his head and shouted.

John and Roy had just finished making calls. They came over and said, "The police and the hospital have sent people over, but we're too far away. It will take more than half an hour. And the weather forecast said that there will be rain at noon. The police suggested that we leave now and send the patient to the hospital first."

"No!" Hearing that they were going to leave, Meroy immediately became anxious. "Sherry is still in those people's hands. If you leave her, Sherry will definitely die!"

As she spoke, Meroy seemed to have thought of something extremely horrible. Her pupils contracted violently, and her whole body immediately curled up into a ball, shaking.

"Sherry?" Roy looked at Jason, a little embarrassed, and said, "Jason, is Sherry still inside?" Original from NôvelDrama.Org.

Jason nodded and said, "There are two people who have taken Sherry to the mountain."

"What should we do? Should we go save her?" As soon as John opened his mouth, he realized Roy and Colin had a strange look on their faces.

Not only him, but even Jason could see that everyone present, except for Lusa and Novia, didn't have a good expression on their faces.

"I know what you are thinking, but a life is at stake here. I believe that if anything happens to Sherry because we ignored this, we won't be able to live with it. A person's life is at stake. No matter how evil she was, she doesn't need to die like this. What do you think?"
