In the center of the room sat a skinny woman. She was wearing shabby clothes, and her pale arms were exposed from the wide cuffs. She was sitting awkwardly on a chair, her hands and feet were tied with iron ropes, and she was still wearing a helmet on her head.
Heavy helmet.
A drop of sweat emerged from the gap in the helmet, flowed down her neck as slender as a dead branch, and fell gently on the back of her trembling hands.
Through the transparent visor of the helmet, the woman saw clearly the sudden arrival of Liu Weike and Gu Siyi. A look of surprise appeared on her haggard and thin face. "Are you here to save me? Please help me."
, help me out!" Her voice sounded dull and hoarse.
The woman's face was filled with anticipation, and she wanted to leave the cold chair under her immediately. However, her hands and feet were bound by iron chains, and she could not escape easily. As she moved, the iron chains tightened around her body.
It sank deeper, leaving bright red marks on her pale skin.
Liu Weike cautiously stepped forward and took off the thick helmet on her head. But she still had doubts about the woman's identity, so she did not immediately untie the chains on her body. She asked: "Who are you?"
who?"
The woman got rid of the dull helmet and gasped for air. Her pale face was covered with cold sweat, and a few withered and yellow hairs were tightly stuck to her thin cheeks.
Although this woman has a haggard face, her appearance is beautiful and she can still recognize some of her former glory. She looks to be only in her early twenties, and there is obvious timidity on her face.
"I...I was caught here by that guy Guimou! Please help me get out, please?" She begged urgently, and looked around in panic from time to time. She clenched her fists nervously, her expression
He said in a panic: "Maybe it won't be long before that devil will come back here again! We have to leave quickly, otherwise we will be trapped here for the rest of our lives!"
Liu Weike was about to reach out to untie the iron chain on the woman's wrist, and his fingers touched her skinny arm. Her arms and shabby sleeves were wet and cold to the touch.
"When were you imprisoned here?" Liu Weike asked in a low voice.
"About... about half a year ago. Those ICV guys threatened me and abused me. I didn't have enough to eat or wear or keep warm every day..." The woman sobbed in a low voice, looking extremely pitiful.
Liu Weike lowered his head and saw that the shoes on the woman's feet were stained with water and left traces on the ground. There were still blood drops behind the heels of her shoes that had not yet dried up.
At this moment, it was still raining continuously outside, as if it was trying to wash away all the bloody smell that permeated the city.
Liu Weike suddenly grabbed the poor woman's wrist and asked sternly: "You have been imprisoned for half a year, it must be difficult to walk, right? Then where did your shoes get the water? Did you just get it?
Come to this secret passage, right?"
"What...are you talking nonsense? I don't understand what you are talking about at all!" The woman turned her attention to Gu Siyi, her face full of fear, and she begged anxiously: "I am just a person who has been stared at by ghosts.
I'm just a victim in detention. Can you please take me out of here? I will never forget your kindness!"
Liu Weike held her slender wrist tightly and said coldly: "You still refuse to tell the truth, do you? Stop pretending in front of us. You will regret it later."
A solid gray stone suddenly appeared at her fingertips, and continued to wrap around the suspicious woman's arm.
The look of panic on the woman's face disappeared, and she curled her lips, revealing a proud sneer. "It's you who should regret it. From the moment you lifted my helmet, you have fallen into the infinite.
It’s dark.”
A chill suddenly rose up in Liu Weike's heart. At the same time, the lights in the room suddenly went out, and even a faint trace of light no longer existed.
She grabbed the mysterious woman tightly and asked, "Who are you?"
"My name is You Tan. I think after today, you will never forget my name." The woman sneered and said, her voice was so terrifying that it made people feel chilly.
"Xiao Ke!" Gu Siyi stretched out his hand in the darkness, trying to pull Liu Weike to his side.
However, the next second, he heard a shrill scream. At the same time, the suspicious woman's strange and eerie chanting sounded again.
"Xiao Ke, what's wrong with you? Xiao Ke!" Gu Siyi groped in the dark and walked in the direction of Liu Weike. A trembling hand suddenly grabbed his trouser leg, and he heard Liu Weike's weak cry for help. "Help.
,help me……"
Gu Siyi hurriedly knelt down, held the dying Liu Weike in his arms, and said in a trembling voice: "Don't be afraid, it will be fine."
He felt the warm liquid wet his clothes, and the pungent smell of blood hit his face. Hearing Liu Weike's painful moans, he wished he could share the pain and suffering for her.
At this moment, his eyes had gradually adapted to the dark environment, and he vaguely saw a sharp dagger inserted into Liu Weike's chest. Bright red blood flowed out and spread to the ground bit by bit.
Liu Weike stretched out her blood-stained hand and weakly grabbed Gu Siyi's arm. She opened her mouth with difficulty and her voice was broken. "Yes, I'm sorry...I can't stay with you from now on..."
"You won't die, Xiaoke, I won't let you die!" Gu Siyi cried desperately. He was about to help Liu Weike deal with the wound, but found that her cold hand loosened his arm little by little,
Gradually it hung down weakly.
Liu Weike lay motionless in his arms, no longer breathing.
The woman named You Tan let out a strange smile and said proudly: "Look, darkness has fallen, and no one can escape."
She didn't know when she was freed from the restraints, and she had a sharp knife in her hand. She walked towards Gu Siyi step by step, repeating: "No one can run away..."
Gu Siyi desperately hugged Liu Weike's body, completely unaware of the danger approaching him.
"No! Gu Siyi! Run!" In a daze, he suddenly heard a familiar voice. The voice was frightened and anxious, with a hint of crying.
Gu Siyi looked around blankly, but there was still darkness wherever he could see.
Why, why did Liu Weike lie motionless in his arms, but he could still hear her anxious shouts? What on earth was going on?
Gu Siyi suddenly felt that his arms became empty. He lowered his head in despair, only to find that Liu Weike, who had just been lying in his arms, was nowhere to be found.
"Xiao Ke, Xiao Ke!" He stumbled to his feet, looking for traces of Liu Weike in the darkness.
