Chapter 38 Danger In The Autumn Journey
Chapter 38 Danger In The Autumn Journey
The next few days were quite peaceful. Although Claire did not like Lily, she restrained herself. However, she always intentionally showed in front of Lily what she got from Frank.
Lily just smiled at her and didn't care what she did. Although Claire was bad, she was not shrewd and everything can be known from her face.
It was Friday and the school was scheduled to organize an autumn tour.
The scheduled gathering time was 7:30 in the morning. So Lily got up early and because Claire and Eden would go together. They set out at 7:30 in time.
The gathering place was at the school gate. The cars were arranged in each class. When they arrived at the school gate, Lily got out of the car and walked towards the signs indicating the grade three class one bus, without taking a look at the brother and sister.
"Lily, here!" As soon as they got into the car, Lily saw that Becky was waving at her. Lily walked towards her with a smile.
Becky moved and took the seat inside. "Sit down, I'm here earlier for this place."
Lily sat down and next to the aisle, but she didn't care. As soon as she was done, Eden passed her, and he gave her a pair of gloves.
"It's cold on the mountain. You'd better take this to keep warm." After saying that, he walked straight to the back seat without any pause.
Looking at the pink gloves in her arms, Lily was unable to react. She turned around and looked at Eden. She wanted to say thank you but thought it and didn't say anything.
Becky was also confused, she blinked, and asked, "Lily, would he have any bad intentions against you?"
"Sizz..." Lily laughed. "What bad intentions he can have?"
"He has become a little strange recently." Becky muttered.
Lily didn't answer. She knew that Eden had been acting strangely these days. He even thought that she might be cold on the mountain, so he brought her a pair of gloves.
At half past seven, the car started on time.
At this time, their head teacher spoke, "Students, I asked you to prepare an extra coat. Are you ready?"
"Yes, I'm ready."
"Of course."
The students in the car all responded one after another, but Lily was stunned. She never thought of it at all.
"Yes." The head teacher smiled and nodded. "It seems that you all have to remember that during this time, the mountain is very cold, but the scenery is unique. We will be there in two hours. If you want to sleep, you can have a good rest."
"Okay."
Everyone liked this new head teacher very much. She was beautiful and had a good temper.
After the head teacher finished, everyone started to do their own things, chat, sleep and eat.
At this time, Becky opened her backpack, took out a coat and put it in Lily's arms. "I've brought two suits. Here you are." NôvelDrama.Org owns all content.
Lily was stunned. She looked at Becky in a daze.
Seeing this, Becky smiled. "What are you doing? Are you stupid? Although sometimes you are very careful, but sometimes you can't remember anything important. In case of any emergency, I have to bring two coats. Just now when the teacher asked if I had more clothes, you didn't respond, so I knew you didn't bring more. Fortunately, I'm smart."
She kept nagging, but Lily thought her words were sweet. The better Becky treated her, the more she felt guilty.
"And this one..." Then she took out two transparent boxes from her backpack, in which there were some beautiful fruit with colors matching.
"This is a box of fruit salad. My mom made it this morning when she got up." She handed one box to Lily.
"Thank you..." Lily didn't know what to say. She could only say this word with a choked voice.
"You are welcome. We are best friends." Becky cast her a reproachful glance, and then shook her left hand. "See? It's a concentric bracelet. Don't say thanks to me in the future."
"Yes." Lily nodded. Her voice was choked with sobs. Tears welled up in her eyes.
She took a few deep breaths to be fine. "Becky, I won't do anything that would hurt you again," she told Becky.
"What?" "Becky, when did you do that to me?"
Only then did Lily realize that she had said something wrong. She smiled awkwardly, "It was just in case."
"Okay." "But I don't think you will feel sorry for me."
Lily smiled helplessly. She trusted her so much, but she had done something to her.
They chatted and laughed all the way. Soon they arrived at the destination. Looking at the scenery outside the window, everyone was amazed and couldn't wait to get off the bus.
Lily and Becky didn't get off the car until most of them got off. On the way, Eden followed them in silence.
"Wow!" Becky was amazed by the scenery in front of her. She pointed to the mountain which looked very close but far away and said to Lily, "Look over there. There is snow on the mountain."
It was a sunny day. The clouds and mist on the mountain had gradually bloomed, and the snow mountain was very beautiful.
"Look! Over there!" "Those colors are so beautiful. And there are red leaves. They are my favorite!"
Looking in the direction she pointed, Lily couldn't help but want to sigh. Although she didn't know the names of those plants, the colors were mixed. The mountain looked like an oil painting, colorful, attracting people's attention.
Then, the teachers of each class gathered all the students in their own class and told them some attentions. They needed to walk along the road. It was easy to get lost if they walk on the narrow roads in the mountains. There were restaurants on the hillside. At noon, all people in the canteen were seated there.
After paying attention to the matters needing attention, everyone walked happily up the main road.
"Lily, let's go." Said Becky, holding Lily's arm.
"Okay." As soon as Lily finished her words, Eden's voice came from her side. "I'll go with you."
What?
Lily and Becky looked at him at the same time and wondered if they should say yes.
"It will be safe to be together." Eden explained again.
"Brother, shouldn't you stay with me?" At this moment, Claire walked over to them. She looked a little pale. After throwing a stare at Lily, she turned to look at Eden and said, "I'm your younger sister. Why do you always miss her?"
"Claire..." Eden frowned unpleasantly, "Pay attention to surroundings."
The other students didn't leave, so everyone looked at them.
"It's safe for us to be together." Looking at Eden, Lily refused politely, "You'd better stay with Claire. After all, she's alone."
Hearing her words, Eden didn't say anything more. He originally wanted to take Claire to the top of the mountain with them, but thinking that she and Lily were at odds, he didn't say it out.
Lily and Becky glanced at them and then went up the mountain.
"I hate her." Muttered Becky.
"We seldom go out to have fun. Don't let her affect our mood." Lily smiled, took out a few pieces of chocolate from her bag and handed them to her. "I'm sure you'll be tired later. Take these chocolate to replenish energy."
"Okay." Becky took over with a smile and put it into her bag. Then she took out her camera and said to Lily, "Let's take a picture together, Lily."
"Okay. We can take photos while walking." Lily said happily.
The sky was blue, and the scenery was beautiful. She was in a good mood.
As they walked, they took pictures not only the scenery, but also for each other. And they also took selfies.
From time to time, they would ask other students to help take pictures of them. They were very exciting.
"Becky, the view over there is wonderful. Let's go there and take some pictures." Lily pointed at a hill not far away from them with her camera.
Looking into the direction she pointed, Becky nodded with a smile, "Okay."
The hill deviated from the main road, but the plants on it were very beautiful. The golden leaves and red leaves were intertwined in other colors, and even the stone was covered with red moss, which was very eye-catching.
The road was rugged. They held up each other and walked forward, surrounded by many stones.
They were not afraid of hard road, because they wanted to capture this unique scenery.
They finally came to this unique hill, and Lily quickly found an angle for Becky and then began to shoot. They were worried that when more people came over, they would not be able to shoot the scenery.
As soon as they finished photographing, more and more people gathered around them. They looked at each other and smiled. Lily pointed at a rugged trail and suggested, "How about we this direction?"
Becky nodded, "Okay. It must be beautiful."
The two girls walked around, completely immersed in taking pictures. They didn't notice that there were only the two of them.
"Oh, we can't go too far." Becky was a little disappointed when she saw the sign on which said to stop walking.
Lily also felt sorry for it, but she was not as disappointed as her. "It seems that we have to go back."
While speaking, they were ready to go back the way they came, but when they turned around, they realized that there was nobody behind them, and a sense of fear rose unconsciously in their hearts.
"Let's go now." Becky rubbed her arms.
"Yes."
The two quickly returned, but before they went far, they saw two men coming. They were neither students nor staff here. The staff had the same clothes, they weren't tourists, because they had no expression on their faces, and they walked in a hurry, and they were very strong.
Gosh! Lily said to herself. She stopped grasping Becky's hand and said in an unstable tone, "Becky, we have encountered bad guys."
"What?" Becky was in a daze for a while. She didn't come to her senses until she saw the two men walking towards them.
"Run!" Lily grabbed her hand and ran away.
Seeing that they were leaving, the two men ran after them too.
"Stop! Don't run!"
A man's voice came from behind their back. Both Lily and Becky were afraid. Judging from his accent, he was not a local and his voice was rough and arrogant.
"Run quickly." Lily took Becky's hand and run faster.
