Chapter 131

Quinlyn didn’t get angry. She stood up when Harriet turned and walked away.

“Why are you following me?” Harriet glared at her halfway.

Quinlyn looked at the dark surroundings and said softly, “I’ll go with you.”

“I don’t need you to,” Harriet said angrily, quickening her pace. But she couldn’t shake off Quinlyn.

Harriet entered the toilet in a huff, finally getting a moment to breathe. Looking at the moonlight through the small window, tears slid down her face.

She was an orphan who just wanted a better life. She didn’t know why the world was so cruel to her. And she hated Quinlyn, who just had to appear.

At the same time, Quinlyn, dozing outside the door, heard a noise from another carriage. She saw a shadowy figure sneaking down the aisle, searching the bunks.

Soon, a flashlight beam came over.

“What are you doing? Which carriage are you from?” A conductor quickly approached, grabbing the figure’s shoulder and asking in a lowered voice to avoid disturbing other passengers.

As the figure turned, a sharp knife was thrust directly at the conductor. The conductor, in pain, tried to shout but was muffled.

The attacker pulled out the knife and was about to strike again when a force from behind knocked him away.

He crashed into the iron railing of a bunk with a loud noise, waking many passengers, who turned on the lights to see what was happening.

The person, holding his arm, turned and fled.

Quinlyn, instead of chasing, squatted to check the conductor’s wound. Relieved that it didn’t seem to have injured internal organs, she stood up and ran to the end of the carriage, ringing the alarm bell.

The shrill alarm rang out in the night, and staff soon came to handle the situation. Quinlyn, hiding in the crowd, watched for a while and then left.
