A chill washed over me, like a cold serpent coiling around my heart, tightening slowly and making it nearly impossible to breathe. The forces behind the scenes were far more powerful than I had imagined, their revenge swift and fierce, sweeping in like a storm and destroying everything around me.
My friend Old Zhang looked pale, his lips trembling as he told me he had received a threatening letter. In bold red letters, it read, "Stop the investigation, or face the consequences." The evidence he had saved—crucial information that could bring the puppet masters to justice—had been mysteriously destroyed by someone unknown. A sense of despair filled the office, like stagnant air pressing down on me, making it hard to breathe.
I slumped in my chair, weakly rubbing my temples, feeling as if I had fallen into despair once again. A cycle, over and over again—was it truly impossible to change fate? I began to doubt myself, questioning the meaning of this borrowed time. The golden light from ancient texts grew dimmer; I could feel that my remaining chances were few, like a candle flickering in the wind, ready to extinguish at any moment.
Fear surged within me like a tide, almost consuming me. I felt an unprecedented sense of hopelessness; I didn’t know what to do next, like a small boat lost in a vast ocean without direction or hope. I painfully closed my eyes, striving to calm myself as I replayed every detail of the case in my mind, searching for any clue I might have overlooked.
Suddenly, a phrase from Witness Old Li before his death flashed through my mind like lightning splitting the dark sky. He had mentioned a mysterious Safe that contained something important. Could this be my last hope? My heart began to race with an inexplicable excitement; I had to find this Safe!
Time was of the essence; I couldn’t afford to delay even for a moment. I immediately sprang into action. Utilizing the few remaining cycles I had left, I became a tireless detective, leaving no corner unchecked as I meticulously searched every possible hiding place for the Safe. Cycle after cycle, each failure only strengthened my resolve; each step closer filled me with renewed hope.
Finally, in a hidden basement, I found it—a rusty iron box quietly resting in the corner as if silently telling an untold secret. Trembling, I opened the Safe and discovered a neatly stacked pile of documents—the complete evidence of the puppet masters' crimes! My heart raced with joy and relief; it felt as if dawn was breaking on the horizon.
I immediately handed this new evidence to Old Zhang and urged him to be careful and protect himself. I knew that the puppet masters would not give up easily; they would surely find ways to stop us. And my time was running out.
Taking a deep breath, I tried to maintain my composure. I knew that my time was limited; I had to prepare for the worst-case scenario. Even if I failed, I would ensure that the truth came to light. I would not give up; I would fight until the end!
Looking out at the darkening sky, determination filled my heart. This battle had only just begun.
