Chapter 649: FAREWELL
The Horse Master\'s smile elaborated. "The one and only."
"I never thought that you would directly attack us." Mu Liang calmly said.
"You are absolutely right. I would never. Because I know the value of the woman standing beside you. I came a little late and found out that you two were being attacked. That\'s not definitely my work. So, don\'t blame it on me. I heart will break." The Horse Master dramatically touched the left side of his heart.
"It was you." Mu Liang looked at the other man who had a scornful expression.
"It was me. I don\'t care what happens to both of you. My duty is to catch you. I will do it by any means necessary." The man bitterly said. "And now, I will kill you with my own hand."
"Enough Alif!" Someone called out.
The Horse Master, Mohammed Alif, Mu Liang and Mu Lan gazed at far behind and saw Mohammed Akram.
"Sorry, I\'m late." Mohammed Akram said as he came down. "You know how to give us monkey dance."
"Did you have fun?" This time Mu Lan spoke up.
The Horse Master laughed out aloud. "Ahaha... she got some sparks."
"She doesn\'t have some sparks. She has many sparks." Mohammed Akram\'s eyes didn\'t left her.
Mu Liang shoved her behind him. She popped her head from his back and mocked, "As if you know me better?"
"I know you better than you lover." Mohammed Akram said. "Judging by your behavior now, I know that you lost your memory."
Mu Lan narrowed her eyes. "You know me from before?" That news was new to her.
"Better than your lover." Mohammed Akram smirked. He looked at Mu Liang and said, "I wonder what will you do if you know your beloved\'s past, her true face."
Mu Liang gripped Mu Lan\'s hand tightly. He silently observed his enemy.
Mohammed Akram shrugged. "Unfortunately, you won\'t be alive to know the real Ms. Lan." He took out a gun and pointed at Mu Liang. "Goodbye, Mr. Mu Liang." Then he shot.
At the last moment, Mu Lan pushed Mu Liang to take the bullet and Mu Liang saw that coming and he hugged her just like he did in the car.
The bullet went through his left shoulder, his body shook ever so lightly.
"Liang? A-are you shot?" Mu Lan\'s throat burnt as the tear formed in her eyes.
Mu Liang bit his own lips not to make any sound.
Mu Lan sat up and saw Mu Liang\'s injury. "On my God! It\'s too deep." Her voice was more like a whisper.
Mu Liang only smiled and slowly got up. Mu Lan gave him a hand.
"Did you think with one shot you will be able to defeat me?" Mu Liang calmly asked.
Mohammed Akram smiled. "Of course not. I have enough bullets to kill you right here and right now. But, if you let her come to me, I will let you go alive."
"In your dreams." Mu Liang said.
"Alright." Mohammed Akram agreed. "Bye then." He pointed out the gun again and pulled the trigger.
Just at that moment, Mu Lan shoved Mu Liang off the cliff. She didn\'t even look back to see where Mu Liang fell. The bullet passed right before her nose.
Mohammed Akram, Mohammed Alif, the Horse Master and everyone else became dumbfounded.
Mu Lan glared at Mohammed Akram and said, "I don\'t know what you know about me pal, but I can say that you don\'t know me that well."
When Mohammed Akram saw that she was about to jump off of the cliff, he screamed, "Don\'t you want to know where your family is? Don\'t you want to know your past?"
It was his last gamble to turn her to him right now. He knew that she lost her memory and she was curious to know about her past. And that\'s why he played this game.
Mu Lan stopped. She looked back and said, "I think you are mistaken. Yes, you are right about the fact that I want to know about my past. But there is nothing more important than the life of the man I love. Farewell."
Saying that, she turned around and jumped from the cliff.
"No!" The Horse Master screamed and came forward to catch her.
Mohammed Alif also came at the edge of the cliff. "Did she say that her lover\'s life is more important to her? She didn\'t hesitate to shove his body off of the cliff. How contradictory!"
"No." Mohammed Akram looked down at the cliff. The current of Nzoia river could be seen perfectly. "She saved both of their lives."
"Can\'t you see the rocks? Their body won\'t be in one piece after we find them. Tsk!" Mohammed Alif was so pissed off. He was this close to capture them.
"Send men to the Rift Valley. They have to find her alive and in one piece at any cost." Mohammed Akram turned around and left the cliff. He looked rather calm.
"It will take too much time." Mohammed Alif clenched his fists.
"Yeah, we are in the route to Mouth Elgon. It will take at least one hour to go back. At that moment, I\'m not sure if we are going to find them or not.," The Horse Master was also pissed off.
"Did you see my cousin\'s expression? Why does he look so calm?" Mohammed Alif whispered.
"Maybe he got something in his head." The Horse Master saw that expression too.
"Or maybe he is hiding something from us." Mohammed Alif gazed at the Horse Master.
Both of them exchanged glances in silent.

One day later, at the Lake Victoria, there was a man found who was swimming. His body was deadly cold and his face was ashened. He coughed vigorously as he dragged his weak body and a woman\'s body to the shore. The woman seemed unconscious. He pulled both of them on the dry ground and fell on the ground. It was so hard for him to breathe.
He couldn\'t bare to stay awake as his eyelids became heavy and he closed his eyes.
