How was it possible?
Luther shook his head hard and looked around carefully. Indeed, Joyce was now nowhere to be found.
She was clearly standing at the end of the crosswalk, waiting for the red light, how could she have disappeared in a flash?
The green light was already on and people were bustling across the street. In the dense crowd, looking around, he could not find her.
Impossible, he could never be wrong.
Just now, it was really Joyce.
She disappeared before his eyes!
He hurriedly unbuckled his seatbelt, and his panicked hands pressed it twice before it was unfastened. He ran out of the car, even forgot to close the door, and ran to the crosswalk. He searched the crowd one by one, but no, none of them. None of them were her.
At that moment, the red light came on again.
A steady stream of cars drove by. He could not care about anything, could not wait a moment, dodging vehicles back and forth, and went straight across.
The sound of brakes sounded suddenly, followed by shrill horns. Some cars were forced to stop, and some car owners lowered their windows and cursed angrily outward.
"You want to get yourself killed? It’s a red light."
"What the hell!"
Luther turned a deaf ear to them all, dodging and finally coming across the road to where Joyce had just disappeared.
It was not far from the DeNox gate.
