Chapter 9 Blocking the Road

Elizabeth stood alone on the balcony on the top of the villa. After thinking about it, she decisively went downstairs, and the door of the villa's electric garage opened. An off-road vehicle rushed out and galloped towards the highway.

Along the way, Elizabeth looked around until she arrived on the side of the road that day, she stopped the car and walked into the woods. The traces here were not covered, but the messy ground here and the several trees that were tilted around could be seen passing a fierce battle here.

She seemed to be thinking about something, and also thinking about something. She reached out and touched the knocked trees, frowned. She smelled it with her nose, but she didn't get anything. After a while, she walked out of the woods, got back in the car, and continued to move forward towards the highway. Until she turned a corner and turned into a small road.

"Hey, it's Elizabeth... I'm so happy to see you!" In the front yard of the house, Joseph had long seen the car coming, parked on the side of the road in front of the yard, and a girl jumped from it.

"Hello, Uncle Joseph, I'm here to find Lisa. I want to know... Is Lisa at home now?" Elizabeth looked into the house, and a trace of doubt flashed in her eyes.

"Of course, Lisa is at home, in the living room. You can go in and find her..." Joseph said to Elizabeth, and waved his hand with a smile. He is in a very good mood now.

"Thank you, Uncle Joseph." Elizabeth entered the yard and walked towards the living room. As soon as he reached the door, he saw the door open. Lisa stood at the door and smiled at her.

"Elizabeth, I'm so happy to see you." Lisa stretched out her hand, hugged Elizabeth who was a little surprised, and walked into the living room with Lisa. Lisa asked her to sit on the sofa next to her. Yes, Elizabeth was very surprised, why is Lisa still alive? But she adjusted quickly.

"Since you left that day, I always felt a little uneasy, so I wanted to come and see if you need me, maybe I can help you with something..." Elizabeth said holding Lisa's hand, "You are my friend, and I know I care about you very much."

"Yes, something happened, that bastard...Shawn Brill, if I meet him again, I will definitely kick him out. He wants to QJ me, it's a hell, why did I meet such a person?" Lisa said gritted her teeth, but there was a smile between her eyebrows and eyes. Perhaps she was not hurt in the end, and that hatred was not so unforgettable, but she would definitely not have anything to do with that bastard anymore.

"Shit, when I see him, I will definitely be rude to him. I have known that he is a bastard! Don't provoke such people again in the future." Elizabeth said in a shared hatred, then stretched out a hand on Lisa's shoulder and looked at her carefully, "You... haven't been hurt at all? Even if it's a little..."

She looked at Lisa and there was no harm. She sat next to her very intact. This made her look a little confused. But Lisa shrugged her shoulders and spread her hands, "That bastard can't do anything to me. I'm here now, there's no harm. Maybe the bastard feels that he has committed a heinous crime, so I haven't seen him appear."

Elizabeth sneered: "It would be better if this bastard fell into the lake and drowned."

"I hope God can hear you." Lisa also laughed.

Elizabeth laughed, then she stood up, looked into the backyard through the window, and couldn't help but say to Lisa: "Why does such a tree grow in your backyard?"

"That's just a sapling!" Lisa smiled and turned her head, but she was stunned when she turned her head. She looked just a tender sapling in the morning, but now she is as tall as her calves. Oh my god, this is simply impossible, but it actually happened.

Elizabeth wouldn't be surprised, she was just wondering why such a tree was planted in the middle of the backyard, and it looked like a peach tree.

"Why?" she turned her head and said to Lisa's surprised expression, "Don't say you don't know if a peach tree will be planted here? When will it happen?"

Lisa didn't react a little. She was still surprised, and then stammered: "I don't know either. Maybe it was my father. This should be done by him. Who knows, I just... I just rarely noticed it!"

While the two were talking, they suddenly heard someone outside talking, but the door was not closed. Looking from the living room, you could see that Joseph seemed to be talking alone. So Elizabeth stood up and wanted to go out and see who it was.

"It's Mr. Jia." Lisa, who was standing beside her, shook her head and smiled, "He is a weird person, but this person is very strange. He has been like this for so many years. Since I was very young, he has never grown old."

"I know this person too." Elizabeth nodded and looked outside. However, when she looked over, it seemed that the man knew she would come over, and the two looked at each other.

Just looking at each other, Elizabeth suddenly became stiff and unable to move, as if there was an invisible shackle that locked her tightly. Although it was only a moment, it made her sweat. Yes, this person didn't look simple, as if there was a kind of invisible pressure that made her breathless.

But then the man smiled at him, like the spring breeze, which made her feel relaxed and felt relieved. She felt relaxed all over and the original difficulties no longer existed.

"God, who is this?" Elizabeth couldn't help but scream inwardly in her heart, then turned her head to look at Lisa and said, "What a strange person, but... I rarely see him. He must have been here for many years."

Lisa nodded: "Yes, it's been more than ten years. My father said that in the year I was born, he came here, and... saved my life and lived there. However... he really doesn't interact with people, he looks very strange. People are pretty good, and this is his only advantage."

Elizabeth laughed. At this time, Jia Huan and Joseph had already walked into the room. After entering the living room, Jia Huan nodded at Lisa, and then his eyes fell on Elizabeth. Elizabeth thought she would feel imprisoned again, but this time it was not at all.

It was as if the feeling I had before was my own illusion. Elizabeth also smiled at Jia Huan, nodded, and stretched out his hand and said, "I'm very happy to see you, Mr. Jia. My name is Elizabeth. I guess you may not know my name. You rarely go to the town and rarely interact with people like us."

Jia Huan nodded, but smiled and shook hands with Elizabeth: "Yes, it's not your fault, it's mine. People in the town thought I was a Frankenstein, but in fact... they were half right, and the half of the weirdo, I agree. But the other half... I don't study science!"

"Ahhh- you're so humorous." Elizabeth couldn't help laughing. Her little alert towards Jia Huan was slowly relaxing, and she couldn't help laughing easily. "They must have not recognized the real you, otherwise, you would definitely make many people fall in love with you."

"I know, so I have always been very restrained and not let more people like me, because... it will be a disaster. For me and my small cabin, I really can't find so many friends..." Jia Huan was still laughing.

Elizabeth was still laughing, while Lisa and Joseph were laughing aside. Joseph patted Jia Huan on the shoulder and said, "I have never seen you feel so humorous, but... in comparison, I still like you now, which really makes people feel like you want to get close to you."

Jia Huan nodded, nodded to Elizabeth, turned around and looked at Lisa, and said to Joseph: "Lisa is fine, everything is fine, it looks...we should celebrate it for this."

Yes, it was time to celebrate. Joseph thought so, so he had a sumptuous lunch. Joseph was very happy to entertain Elizabeth and Jia Huan.

Elizabeth stayed for a while and always felt a little uncomfortable. Although Jia Huan did not bring her direct sensory pressure, she still felt uncomfortable. This was caused by the pressure at the beginning, which made people feel uncomfortable.

After lunch, she offered her farewell.

"Hey, Elizabeth—" Lisa called her as Elizabeth walked to the door and said, "If that bastard - I mean Brill appears again, would you go and beat him up with me?"

"Of course, why not?" Elizabeth shrugged at Lisa and said with a smile, "I can't wait now, don't forget, I'm still a master of fighting! I've won the championship in school, didn't I?" She also waved her fist as she said that. This action made Lisa feel warm and she couldn't help but laugh.

Elizabeth left Lisa's house and drove back. Along the way, she was a little stunned. The person she saw today was really unusual. Why did she feel that when she first saw him? Just as she was stunned, she suddenly saw a person standing in the center on the road ahead, standing there, motionless, and raised her head to look at the car rushing towards him.

"Oh, shit, this damn-" When Elizabeth woke up, she suddenly stepped on the brakes, and the car rushed towards the people in the middle of the road with the violent sound of tire friction.

With the strong and pungent smell of tires rubbing against the ground, the car stopped in front of the man, less than half a meter away from his body. But the man still didn't move, as if he hadn't seen the car at all. He just looked at the person in the car.

Jia Huan - Elizabeth saw him again. But this time it seemed a bit unusual. He was at Lisa's house just now, so why did he reach front of him in a blink of an eye and block the middle of the road?
