Jiang Xinrou was leisurely lying on the sofa, munching on a steamed bun. Although it tasted bland, she found it quite delicious.
Seeing Jiang Ran's pained expression made her feel incredibly hungry.
However, at that moment, she seemed to hear footsteps overhead.
Her hearing was excellent, and since it was late at night, any sound, even the slightest rustling in the wind, was exceptionally clear.
Jiang Xinrou sat up abruptly, becoming alert.
She narrowed her eyes, her face serious.
wrong...
Something's not right...
She quickly stood up, went to the iron gate, and pressed her ear against the wall to listen carefully.
That's right...
It was indeed the sound of footsteps, and it didn't sound like one person, but rather like—a group of people.
Her face changed instantly, and she became flustered.
Could it be that I've been discovered?
No! That's impossible!
This place is so well hidden, even if someone finds out, it won't be so quick!
Could it be—
She suddenly remembered Jiang's mother, who had just left.
Did she reveal her whereabouts?
Damn it! How dare she betray me!
She doesn't deserve to be called a human being! I'm her own granddaughter!
But obviously, there's no time to think about that now.
Now, it seems the police already know she's here.
Damn it! Her plans were completely ruined!
She turned to look at Jiang Ran, who was in pain, and then at Gu Shifan, who was only breathing weakly, her eyes filled with conflict.
The fact that she chose to carry out her plan here means it's definitely not a simple basement.
She bought this place a month ago and had it secretly renovated to prevent today's situation from happening.
There is also a secret passage in this basement that leads directly to a river in the suburbs.
This secret passage was so well hidden that even if the police found it, it would take them at least some time to discover it.
Unfortunately, she was all alone, without any help, and now she could only take one person with her.
Her gaze fell on Jiang Ran and Gu Shifan, but she ultimately chose Jiang Ran.
But she couldn't let Gu Shifan off so easily.
She walked over to Gu Shifan, looking at him with cold eyes as he was beaten until his skin was torn and bleeding.
She grabbed a fruit knife from the side and slashed her hand; blood gushed out instantly.
Immediately afterwards, she placed her own wound on top of Gu Shifan's wound.
Gu Shifan weakly opened his eyes, staring at her menacingly: "What...are you doing?"
"Hmph." Jiang Xinrou sneered, "I can't take you with me now, but I'll make sure you come down to hell with me!"
Seeing their blood mingling, Jiang Xinrou slowly smiled.
"You don't know yet, do you? I'm sick, with a very serious infectious disease, it's AIDS." Her smile was sinister. "Now your wound is stained with my blood, and you'll soon get the same disease as me. You'd better hurry up and come down, I'll be waiting for you in hell."
After saying that, she walked to Jiang Ran's side without turning her head, led her into a hidden door, and then walked a winding road until they arrived at another hidden door.
She placed her palm on the wall, and then the hidden door slowly opened.
Jiang Xinrou led Jiang Ran inside, then glanced back reluctantly.
She was unwilling to accept it!
Her long-planned scheme has been completely ruined.
She had originally planned to take all the Shen family members and people she hated with her to their deaths, but now she could only take Jiang Ran and Gu Shifan with her.
This was so different from her plan that she was really unwilling to accept it.
But if she didn't leave now, she would be caught by the police. So she reluctantly closed the secret door and led Jiang Ran out of the secret passage to the suburbs.
With a loud bang, the rusty iron gate was kicked open.
A well-trained team immediately burst in and spotted Gu Shifan on the sofa, covered in blood and bruises from the ordeal.
"Quick! Save them!"
"Where's the doctor who accompanied us? Quickly, check if there's any hope!"
Gu Shifan managed to retain his rationality through sheer willpower. As the paramedics approached him, he gritted his teeth and weakly whispered, "Don't...don't come near me..."
"Sir, don't be afraid, we're here to rescue you."
"No... Jiang... Jiang Xinrou has... HIV... My... my wounds... came into contact with her blood..."
Everyone immediately understood and put on protective suits before approaching him.
"And...and...Jiang Ran...was taken away by her through...through the secret passage..."
After saying this, he could no longer hold on and lost consciousness.
Everyone admired him for his bravery, even though he was so badly injured, he was still holding on because he was worried about others getting infected and about the other victim.
That's really rare.
"Quickly, administer the blocking agent."
"There is a secret passage in the basement. Immediately request that professionals be sent to inspect this place."
On the other side, Jiang Xinrou had dragged Jiang Ran to the riverbank in the suburbs.
This place is far from the city center, and there are no other people living around it. There is only a forest around the river.
That's why she chose this place in the first place; it's remote enough to be more convenient for her.
Seeing Jiang Ran's pale face and the large beads of sweat on her forehead, looking like she was in great pain, Jiang Xinrou finally felt a little better.
