Screenwriter Mystery

"You say, what are we looking for in the forest?"

As night fell, the faint voices of conversation in the Devil's River Forest rang out.

The two small town policemen clenched their pistols and swept through the silent depths of the forest with the help of the weak light of the flashlight. Prompted by the inner unease, one of the young policemen looked at the surrounding dark shadows and couldn't help it. Open your mouth and vent your fears.

"who knows?"

Shrugging his shoulders, he took his eyes away from the bushes illuminated by the flashlight. Another small town policeman replied with some carelessness.

"Anyway, he won't be a good guy."

"You also saw the tragic condition of old Johnson. There is definitely something dangerous in this forest that we don't know about."

Not to mention, it was okay. When his colleague mentioned the dead old Johnson, the expression on the face of the town policeman who spoke first immediately became a little scared. He turned the flashlight in his hand and looked suspiciously at the surrounding forest. Circle, and then said to his colleagues in a panicked tone.

"Do you think old Johnson was really killed by some lunatic who accidentally broke into the forest?"

"I mean, that level of destruction is not something that ordinary people can do."

Old Johnson's shotgun that was broken in half was still in the evidence room of the small town police station. It was hard for the young town police to imagine that someone could be strong enough to tear a shotgun in half.

"Maybe we just thought too much, and the perpetrator was just a brown bear who just woke up from hibernation."

"I hope you are right."

Hearing his colleague's answer, the young town policeman murmured, and he turned his head to look in the direction of the flashlight.

Shasha—

In his ears, the sound of leaves rustling suddenly came.

"If there is a situation, be alert!"

Hearing this sudden sound, the young town policeman froze in place, feeling a little overwhelmed.

The colleague who was acting with him reacted, and pointed the arm holding the pistol in the direction of the sound, with a solemn look on his face.

With the reminder from his colleagues, the young town policeman calmed down.

He took a deep breath and tried his best to control his palm not to tremble. Tensioning his nerves, he slowly moved the flashlight in his hand towards the sounding bush.

chirp—

The next second, a dark shadow ran out of the bushes.

"Huh... it's a squirrel!"

Seeing the little squirrel fleeing under the light of the flashlight, the young policeman breathed a sigh of relief.

She turned her head and was about to say something to her colleague.

Just saw, behind the colleague, a dark shadow suddenly fell from the tree.

boom!

……

"problem occurs!"

In the forest, gunshots were heard.

Amanda and Robin immediately turned and ran in the direction the voice came from.

In the silent forest, hurried footsteps continued to sound.

Amanda gritted her teeth through a dense bush, and the sharp thorns on the vines left tiny scratches on her face.

Rushing to the place where the gunshots sounded, the first thing Amanda saw was the sound of two falling to the ground.

"Damn!"

Seeing the policeman being attacked, she cursed inwardly.

Falling to the ground, clutching his injured arm, the young town policeman shouted to Amanda who appeared.

"Be careful, she's nearby!"

"she?!"

Noticing the description of the town policeman, the expression on Amanda's face changed slightly.

Bang, bang!

Behind him, two crisp gunshots sounded.

Turning his head, he saw Robin raised his arm and kept shooting.

Looking in the direction where Robin shot, Amanda saw a scene that she will never forget under the light of the flashlight.

"Woo~"

In the light, a little girl with blond hair and blue eyes was lying on the ground with all four limbs flat. She was covered in a discordant rags. Light, the girl showed a strong discomfort, her fingers moved back and forth on the surrounding soil a little restlessly, grinned, and issued a low growl threat like a beast.

"It just doesn't get any worse than this."

Looking at the little girl who was as fiercely hostile as a beast in front of her, Amanda's heart was full of shock and astonishment at the moment.

Although she had already imagined the possibility of the identity of the target of the attack, she still felt unacceptable when the opponent actually appeared in front of her.

The murderer who killed old Johnson and his hound in the forest and attacked others was actually a little girl who disappeared from the town a few years ago.

In the silent forest of Devil's River.

Amanda looked at the little girl with a fiercely hostile expression in front of her, with a hesitant expression on her face.

As a Texas Patrol, she can shoot those criminals without any burden.

But in front of him, a little girl.

She really couldn't convince herself to shoot and kill a child.

The muzzle of the gun in her hand became wandering, and Amanda looked at the little girl who was groaning anxiously in the light, and a fierce struggle occurred in her heart.

"..."

After struggling, Amanda lowered the gun aimed at the little girl.

"Boss?!"

Under Robin's puzzled eyes, Amanda spoke to the girl in the softest tone possible.

"Hey, girl, don't be afraid, there is no danger."

"I promise, no one will hurt you again."

"Woo~"

In the face of Amanda's friendliness that she has never felt before~www.novelmt.com~ The expression on the little girl's face began to change a little.

Although she still grinned and made a low growl threat, her green eyes were lost, and the movements of her fingers became a little slower.

Noticing the subtle changes in the little girl, Amanda's inner tense emotions were relieved a little.

Raising his hand, he made an OK gesture to Robin behind him.

"Quick, quick, right here..."

However, the next second, the sound of footsteps coming from the depths of the forest, accompanied by the sheriff's screaming, made Amanda's heart that had fallen once again lifted.

"whatthef**k?!"

Arriving at the scene, the sheriff saw the little girl lying on all fours on the ground and the injured subordinate, and instinctively cursed.

"Shoot!"

Immediately afterwards, almost subconsciously, he issued a shooting order to the policemen who arrived at the same time.

"do not want!"

Looking at the small town police who were shooting, Amanda reached out to stop it.

However, it was obviously too late.

Accompanied by crisp gunshots.

The bullet left the muzzle and flew towards the location of the little girl.

boom!

The copper-colored bullet hit the ground in front of the little girl, splashing a lot of dirt.

"Roar!"

The whole body suddenly jumped back like a spring to avoid the bullet's attack. The girl looked at the clear hole left by the bullet in front of her, and the low roar that originally represented a threat instantly turned into an angry roar.

With the sound of the roar, the little girl in the forest turned into a shadow and rushed towards the town police.
