Reborn In a Murderer’s Embrace

Chapter 411



"Help!"

Annora and Zoe tucked themselves behind an inflatable castle, a spot that should have been safe, but fatefully, they were discovered by a masked

man...

"Zoe, look out!"

In a critical moment, Zoe pushed Annora away and ended up lying in a pool of blood.

"Zoe..." Annora cried out Zoe's name in despair.

By the time Colin and I rushed over, Zoe was barely hanging on.

She was coughing up blood, her abdomen slashed open by a chainsaw, blood pouring out relentlessly...

The scene was gruesome.

"It was her!" Annora cried, pointing at Melody nearby. "She's in league with those masked freaks, she lured them here on purpose."

Annora's tears were accusations against Melody.

Melody froze, looking like she was at a loss for words. "No..."

Before she could explain, Bran, in a fit of rage, shoved her away, his eyes burning with fury.

Dexter frowned, grabbing Melody, examining her with a scrutinizing gaze.

Everyone was suspecting Melody, blaming her.

"You purposely got lost on the sixteenth floor to draw Phoebe out, and now Zoe's hurt because of you. You're just wicked, siding with the killer!" Stella said angrily.

"Right, I saw her talking to those masked people..." James added, nervously pointing at Melody.

The other survivors quickly turned against Melody too.

Melody frowned, clearly displeased, offering no explanation.

I watched coldly as Melody faced the accusations, then turned to see Annora sobbing over Zoe, stepping forward to examine Zoe's wounds.

"Next up, the real game begins." The eerie voice over the loudspeaker announced, and the ground started shaking violently.

From the corner, every floor tile began to move like waves, rushing towards us.

"Run for it!" James yelled, darting off first.

The remaining few from the orphanage frantically followed.

But masked men awaited them on the other side.

It seemed like a dead end either way.

“Annora, come on!" The trap was closing in, and Annora was still holding Zoe, crying.

Zoe's complexion was terrifyingly pale, and judging by the visible wounds... her chances were slim.

"Carter..." Zoe's gaze was vacant as she murmured Carter's name. "I... failed you."

"I couldn't... protect you."

"Carter..."

Bran clenched his fists till they turned white and rushed to pull Annora away. “Let's go!"

Just as Bran attempted to lift Zoe, the ground suddenly gave way.

Zoe fell into the darkness below.

As the mechanical wave passed, I, along with Colin and Bran, leapt over the turmoil.

Bran stood on the sealed floor, his expression complex.

Annora continued to cry, Zoe's body trapped beneath the floor...

Before we could escape and alert the police, there was no chance of retrieving Zoe's body.

"Help!"

On the other side, James and the others were still trapped in the massacre, with masked men relentlessly hunting them down.

I carefully observed the mechanical wave, noting that the area beneath the roller coaster was the only part that remained still.

"There's the exit!" I shouted to the group.

Everyone followed me towards the roller coaster.

"Help!" James screamed, selfishly pushing someone towards the masked man to save himself, running towards us.

That was just like him, always

putting himself first, leaving his companions to fend for themselves while he made a break for safety.

"Open this up."

Colin and Robin started prying open the floorboards, all of us too exhausted and defeated, leaning against the roller coaster.

"Leaving so soon? Let's play a bit

over

more." The eerie voice echoed again, all the ground opening up except for the spot under the roller coaster where a few of us had run to. The rest fell into traps and were swallowed by the floor below.

Now... the only ones left were me, Melody, Finn, Dexter, Robin, Stella, Annora, Bran... James, and a man who had been hiding under the roller coaster all along, named Silas, along with a masked man Robin had just dragged in, unconscious.

The other masked assailants also fell victim to their own traps.

"Oops, got a bit carried away there," the eerie voice said, merging with the creepy laughter of the amusement park's music.
