Starting Off Survival With A Small Treehouse

Chapter 1036: Chapter 574: Someone Outside the Window_3

"What do you mean?" Li Wenxi felt a jolt in her heart.

"Outside... there’s more than one person, and they’re all waiting out there." Xu Ying suddenly opened the window and shouted outside, "Hey! You bunch of cowards! Why don’t you come out? Why is it that as soon as I get back, you all turn into turtles hiding in your shells?"

But the only response was the slight sound of the wind outside.

"Hmph." She snorted, slammed the window shut with a "bang," and said, "A bunch of wimps."

Li Wenxi felt a bit creeped out after hearing her words.

"More than one person?" She swallowed, eyes wide open, "Are you saying I was just surrounded by a bunch of people with bad intentions?"

Thinking of that eye peering through the curtain gap, and then realizing there are many such people outside...

She suddenly felt a chill of fear.

Thankfully!

Thankfully, she didn’t dare to open the window just now!

"I initially thought there was only one person." Xu Ying pulled Li Wenxi to the bedside to sit down, "And that person left after a period of time, so I didn’t think the situation was that urgent. But then..."

"Then more people came?" Li Wenxi asked, staring into her eyes.

"Yes." Xu Ying nodded, "I can sense the space around this area no matter where I am, and just a few minutes ago, I sensed that suddenly... it should be seven people, and they all surrounded the window of your bedroom. I hurried back, lucky you didn’t open the window!"

A few minutes ago?

Outside the bedroom window?

"I... I was watching outside the window the whole time, there was no one outside..." Li Wenxi’s voice was a bit uncertain.

"Yes, they are all in places you can’t see." Xu Ying glanced outside, then chuckled slightly, "Do they think they’re Spider-Man or a gecko? All hanging on the wall."

"Oh my... it really is like that!" Li Wenxi looked at the window, then quickly withdrew her gaze, "It’s really like what I imagined..."

"When I came back just now, I didn’t come in directly, but transported myself outside."

Xu Ying pointed outside, then bit her nails looking troubled, "Those guys seem to know my ability now. I clearly came back very quickly and was extremely careful not to make any noise, but I still saw their figure, only saw two shadows. They’re really quick to run!"

"So, these people are... the lackeys you mentioned before?" Li Wenxi calmed herself and asked.

"Yes, they probably are. Even if they’re not directly, they’re trained by those lackeys." Xu Ying rubbed her brow, deeply troubled, "It’s annoying, truly annoying! Doesn’t this mean we can’t trust anyone now?"

Li Wenxi also felt a bit weary, "Yes, since they’ve been setting this up for so many years, there might be spies everywhere."

Can’t trust anyone...

"Hmm... I think maybe we can trust Wei Shishi?" Xu Ying thought for a moment, "She’s never really had a good attitude towards me. If she were one of those lackeys, she should have tried to get close to me, right?"

"I also think she’s not a problem. But..."

Li Wenxi hesitated for a moment, and said, "That Wei Bai, might have some issues."

Xu Ying pursed her lips, "I must ask Wei Shishi clearly. Why she has so much hostility towards me, and about her parents, and Wei Bai’s issues..."

"She probably knows a lot of things we don’t know! We must make her reveal them!"
