It took a while for the killers to even get in.

She hurried through another empty space in the stone forest and found a well-hidden boulder. She sat down behind it and wanted to have a rest.

She was still wearing the dress Justin sent her for the engagement ceremony. Fortunately, its fabric was very soft and not tight, and she felt like she was wearing nothing. Most importantly, it did not hinder her movement when she was running away from those thugs. Unfortunately, the skirt was too long. Now that she was in the stone forest, she would have to hide and run from time to time, the skirt was still a bit in the way.

She thought of a way suddenly. She picked up a sharp-edged stone from the ground, which was as sharp as a machete, and ...

"Slash!" She cut her skirt hard and then tore it along the pattern to make it much shorter.

It was a shame that the dress, with its extraordinary design and special fabric, must have been very expensive and should have been returned to Justin, but she couldn't care less about anything else at the moment.

She pulled some rags and tied them to her injured calf to stop the bleeding.

At this moment, judging from the sounds, she knew that, not far away, Ricky and several killers had entered the stone forest one after another.

They started looking for her.

She decided not to shoot for the time being. Once she shot, her position would be immediately exposed and it would be difficult for her to deal with so many people at once. It's better to let them take their time looking for her, and she'll see what she can do to buy her more time.

Ricky looked around cautiously with his gun in one hand, and he started shouting at the top of his lungs.

"Joyce, you can't get away! I know you don't have many bullets. You can't hit every one of us! Just surrender!" He shouted while looking vigilantly left and right, turning suddenly behind him every now and then for fear that Joyce would appear from some unknown direction.

Joyce narrowed her eyes, held her breath, and pushed the bullet into the chamber.

Just now she counted the bullets left in this pistol. Indeed, she still got five bullets left.

She buried Karl's gun into the gravel, for which she had got no bullets left. She knew that the police department had a strict censorship system for all the guns, which could not be lost or fall into the hands of the enemy. There was even a strict registration system for every bullet. In order not to bring unnecessary trouble to Karl, she buried his gun into the gravel and hid it, so that when the police department sent someone to the scene, they would surely find it.

With five bullets and nine men, she wasn't sure she could grab another pistol.

So, she just wanted to keep them busy for as long as possible.

"Joyce, you hand over the stuff, and I'll consider leaving you alive. I'll leave a way for you to go and I promise not to hurt you!" Ricky shouted loudly, and at the same time winked at the others, indicating to them that he was just lying to her.

He cursed inwardly. The damn woman had messed his plan all up! Charlotte miscarried during the engagement ceremony, and the video of them having sex was exposed. He could hardly explain to the Heath family this time. He had no idea how he could possibly deal with the situation.

But right now, he must not let his killing be known by the military, or he would be really, completely finished.

A ferocious bloody light crossed his dull black dark eyes. If he killed all the people present today, he still had a chance of survival.

Therefore, there was no room for any mistakes today.
