Early in the morning, a street cleaner finished cleaning the street. She passed a dark alley, where she suddenly saw a person lying on the ground.

From her general shape, she looked like a woman, one with a very good figure.

There was a street of bars nearby, and there were often such women lying on the ground in the area, but it was the first time he had seen one lying down in the alley.

The cleaner hesitated, then walked over and shouted, “Miss?”

She noticed that the woman’s body was covered in flower tattoos.

When she approached, she saw the person lying on her stomach, with a large pool of dried blood beneath her.

Dark and uncanny.

“Ah!!!!!”

The scream echoed through the neighborhood.

Huo Ling felt that she was indeed experiencing some bad luck lately.

Even right when she got up in the morning, she felt that her body was extremely exhausted.

She didn’t know what was going on, but she kept feeling uneasy for no reason. She’d twisted her ankle while walking, so now her ankle was swollen.

On top of that, the family of a patient had complained about her at the hospital.

Although it wasn’t that big of a deal, and it was the other person being unreasonable and causing trouble, because she was a nurse, one thousand yuan was deducted from her salary.

The salary for working here wasn’t low, but one thousand yuan being deducted for no reason, along with this month’s full attendance award and bonus being revoked, certainly made Huo Ling feel like she was extremely unlucky.

Her family wasn’t particularly well-off, so her salary was extremely important to her.

Yet when it came to the patient’s family being unreasonable and causing trouble, there was nothing she could do about it.

What was even more ridiculous is that when she’d gotten home after riding her bicycle the night before, she’d hit a cat.

Her bicycle killed a cat!

Old people often said that it wasn’t a good sign to kill an animal while driving. Although she was riding a bicycle, she couldn’t help feeling uneasy inside, and once again, she felt that she was extremely unlucky.

She dreamed of a cat killing her for the entire night.

When she got up early in the morning, she felt even more exhausted. As she was going through her morning routine, she suddenly thought of Qiao Jin’s words.

‘You’ve been unlucky lately.’

Brushing her teeth, she froze.

When Qiao Jin said that, she hadn’t been feeling extremely unlucky, just a little down on her luck, but since then, she’d started to become completely unlucky.

She suddenly felt panicked.

At this moment, her phone’s ringtone suddenly started blaring. She saw that the call was from her mother, who lived far away in her hometown. Her mother would never call her so early in the morning. The moment she saw the call, Huo Ling suddenly had a bad feeling.

When she answered the phone, her mother’s cry instantly sounded on the other end. “Huo Ling, something happened to your brother!”

Huo Ling’s heart immediately lurched, and the toothbrush in her hand fell to the ground. “Mom, what’s wrong? What happened to him?”

Huo Ling’s mother’s voice sounded despondent and sorrowful. “Your brother was hit by a car on his way to school this morning. He is on his way to the hospital right now. His condition isn’t life-threatening, but he broke a leg. Oh, what will happen to his future?!”

Huo Ling was stunned.

As if something had exploded in her brain, her mind was buzzing.

She and her brother had always enjoyed a great relationship, and she never thought that such a thing would happen.

‘It’s best to warn your brother to look out for a car…a black car.’

For an instant, cold air seemed to flow up from the soles of her feet. Huo Ling trembled subconsciously and finally asked, “Mom, what kind of car hit my younger brother?”

“A black car!”

Boom–

Huo Ling’s mind was blown.

Qiao Jin’s words began to run through her head.
