He suddenly came over, and Xu Youyi instinctively leaned back: "What, what are you doing?"

She was tongue-tied.

Seeing that she misunderstood, Ke Chengzhou reminded her: "Seat belt."

“…”

Realizing that she had misunderstood, she felt even more embarrassed and wanted to jump out of the car immediately.

"No, I can do it myself." Xu Youyi stretched out her hand and pulled, but just as she exerted her strength, she gasped in pain.

Hearing her gasp, Ke Chengzhou pulled her hand over and looked at it, then frowned.

"Even though he was injured, he still acted strong."

He scolded loudly, then leaned forward to pull the seat belt.

He was so harsh, Xu Youyi felt uncomfortable immediately. Who was she hurt because of? If it weren't for him...

Thinking of what just happened, her cheeks suddenly turned red again.

Ke Chengzhou also looked uneasy, but he still took her to the hospital first.

Xu Youyi's ankle was twisted quite badly and she had to wear a bandage. Her wrist was also a little swollen and the doctor advised her not to do any strenuous exercise.

To avoid embarrassment, she insisted on being hospitalized, but the attending doctor was a very serious old professor who yelled them out in just a few words.

She has never been kissed by anyone in her life.

She pouted, feeling a little aggrieved, but didn't dare to look up, and walked home awkwardly.

As soon as she returned to Ke Chengzhou's house, she didn't even care about her sprain and rushed back to her room by jumping on one leg.

Ke Chengzhou wanted to explain what had just happened but was worried that she would fall so he followed her all the way, but he just reached the door.

Bang——

The explanation was just thrown back at me.

…

After dinner, Gu Xiuyuan took care of some work. When he came down from upstairs, Ji Shuyu was not in the room. He saw from the window that she was standing in the yard in a daze.

Gu Xiuyuan took his coat and went out, hugging her from behind.

"How did you get out?"

Ji Shuyu looked at him sideways, then smiled and took a deep breath. She just felt that the air was good right now, so she came out and stood there for a while.

Gu Xiuyuan knew that she was still not completely recovered from the shock, so he hugged her from behind, silently expressing that he would always be there.

"There will really be no more trouble in the future." Gu Xiuyuan said, holding her cold hand in his. "I just received news that Huo Tianhao was arrested abroad a few days ago."

"Will he be sent back?" Ji Shuyu turned around.

Gu Xiuyuan shook his head, "I'm afraid I won't be able to come back."

He was captured by the forces he hired before, and because the final payment was not paid, and he was unable to repay the rest, his fate... was uncertain.

There is a niche underground club abroad that is probably no less dark and bloody than those in horror movies.

There was a very sensational case over there a while ago. A member of an organization was hunted down and left behind a USB flash drive before his death. There were a large number of videos of torture and killing in it. The degree of brutality was comparable to those banned bloody movies.

After hearing him say this, Ji Shuyu didn't ask any more questions.

"Did Gu Xiuwen get caught?"

"The person who planned and helped him escape has been caught. The police are still pursuing Gu Xiuwen, but they haven't found him yet."

But there is no news so far, maybe... he is already where he should be!

"Let's go inside!" He wrapped her hand in his warm palm and led her into the warm house.

…

At the same time, in a dark basement somewhere.

Gu Xiuwen woke up to bursts of screams.

A terrifying video was projected onto the mottled walls of the basement. It showed a young man with black hair and yellow skin tied to a chair, his body a bloody mess. Blood was still trickling from his eye sockets, bandaged. The bottle beside him looked like a pair of eyeballs...

The strong visual impact made him physically uncomfortable. He felt nauseous and couldn't help coughing, spitting out blood from his mouth.

Gu Xiuwen curled up on the cold and damp ground.

The pain spread all over my body, but I couldn't tell where it hurt.

After waking up from his coma, his consciousness gradually returned, and he also remembered what happened before he fell into the coma.

He thought that by hiding on the side of the bridge pier, he could withstand the shock wave of the explosion, but he didn't expect that he was a step too slow.

Cough cough——

The unstoppable coughing caused him to spit out blood foam from his mouth from time to time.

"Hey, you awake?"

In the dimly lit environment, the hoarse voice against the shrill background sound of the video sends chills down one's spine.

Gu Xiuwen wanted to get up, but found that his hands and feet were tied, and every time he moved, he heard the sound of the chains dragging.

Looking for the sound, I saw a figure coming against the dim light.

He was limping and his body was a little hunched, but he looked inexplicably familiar.

"Why, you don't recognize me?"

Only when the person came in front of him did he realize K.

"you--"

Gu Xiuwen was shocked and struggled instinctively, but he didn't have the strength to get up.

He knew that K was not dead, and he also knew that Huo Zhengfeng's plan was ruined because Gu Xiuyuan's people found him, but... he didn't expect that he could still get out, and he didn't expect that he would fall into his hands.

"We've worked together for a few years, what's with that look in your eyes?" K approached, then sat down on a chair and stepped on his face. "Gu Xiuwen, the fear in your eyes is genuine."

K chuckled, then choked and coughed a few times, and seemed to have difficulty breathing.

"What do you want to do?"

"Does this place look familiar to you?" K looked around.

Although the light was dim, Gu Xiuwen recognized the place at a glance.
