As soon as I stepped outside, there was no cold wind; everything was eerily quiet.
Ah Chen headed toward the place Yan Hui pointed out during the day. After a few minutes, some sounds gradually came from there, along with the appearance of firelight.
She didn't want to be discovered, so she wouldn't be; there was no need to use any tools.
As she quickly approached, she saw a familiar face hidden among them. Who else could it be but Yan Hui? It seemed this person's curiosity was quite strong.
It appeared that all the villagers were gathered here. She weaved through the crowd and managed to see clearly the three young people tied to the firewood.
Are they going to burn them tonight as well? Wouldn't that mean we'll soon hear those pitiful screams again?
But it's not a certainty.
This NPC in the scenario had quite a bit of freedom; the storyline wasn't fixed.
The screams from yesterday were solely to lure people out.
