Chapter 271: Being Captured (Part 2)
Not long after, the door was opened from the inside. There was no light in the room, and it looked pitch black at first glance. Only a blurry figure could be seen.
The man at the door didn't think much about it, and rushed forward to grab the other person's hand. His grip was very strong, and this grab made the other person frown and said unhappily: "Let go! Why are you grabbing so hard? Do you want to kill someone?"
Judging from the voice, the person who spoke was a young man. The person at the door was stunned and said, "You are not Sister Zhao, you are her nephew?"
Zhao Liang nodded subconsciously, pulled the man's hand away, squinted his eyes and took a closer look at the faint light coming in from outside, and asked in surprise: "Are you... Zhou Zhou? What are you doing here so late at night?"
This reminded Zhou Zhou. He subconsciously wanted to pull Zhao Liang's hand again, but Zhao Liang dodged him. He could only anxiously say, "Zhao Liang! Where's Sister Zhao? Is she here? Can you let her out? Something's happened to Afang! Sister Zhao must help me!"
Zhao Liang frowned again when he heard this. He remembered that Afang was Zhou Zhou's girlfriend. She was tall and thin, and looked pretty. How could she get into trouble? Zhao Liang's mind turned and he thought of a possibility. His face immediately turned ugly.
Although he was spoiled by his parents and didn't know the ways of the world even after going to college, Zhao Liang actually had a strong sense of justice, so after he made his guess, he became furious. Coincidentally, Zhao Yan came out of the room at this moment.
As soon as Zhou Zhou saw her, he immediately pushed aside Zhao Liang and ran to her side, holding her arm and begging, "Sister Zhao, Afang is in trouble! Please help me!"
Because he was too anxious, he couldn't control the strength of his hands, and Zhao Yan was hurt. Zhao Yan had to comfort him: "Don't worry, tell me what happened. Wasn't Afang with you? How did the accident happen?"
After she said this, Zhou Zhou's confused mind finally cleared up, and he said quickly: "Afang was captured by the guards of the shantytown! Sister Zhao, you also know that Afang is beautiful, she...she must have been in trouble now." He choked with pain when he said this, "It's all my fault! I'm useless! It's my fault that I didn't protect Afang! Sister Zhao, I beg you, please help me save her, I kneel down for you!"
He was about to kneel down, but Zhao Yan grabbed his hands and held them tightly. Zhao Yan said, "A man's knees are made of gold. Don't kneel down to me all the time. I can't bear it! You know I'm just a genius... How can I help you? I heard that the guards in the shantytown are at least first-level psychics. It's useless even if I go there."
When she said this, her brows knitted tightly. She was a woman, and she also had a daughter. She naturally hated the fact that Ah Fang was robbed, but she also knew that it would be useless if she went! She had just awakened her superpowers, and she hadn't figured out how to use them. Now she could only release some small fireballs. How could she be a match for those first-level superpowers!
However, just when she was worried, Zhao Liang suddenly said, "Aunt, why don't we just... go and ask those two for help? Aren't they also first-level psychics? The guards here should at least give them some face, right?"
When Zhao Liang said this, Zhou Zhou's eyes lit up, like a drowning man grabbing the last straw, and murmured, "Yes... yes, they can definitely help! But... Sister Zhao!" He called out, looking at Zhao Yan and said, "Sister Zhao, can you go and take a look first? Even if you can't save Afang, at least... at least you can make them dare not do anything to Afang, right? I... I'll go find those two adults for help."
When Zhao Yan heard this, her eyes suddenly turned cold. She glared at her troublesome nephew coldly, then looked at Zhou Zhou and asked him, "Do you know where they live now? How can we find them? Moreover, why would you ask them for help?"
Zhou Zhou was sensitive to the change in Zhao Yan's attitude. He didn't know why Zhao Yan was like this, but he still said with his neck stiff: "After all... after all, we came here together, so it's only natural for us to help each other, right? Besides, if it weren't for them, we... how could we have come to this safe zone, and how could Afang have been captured..."
He felt Zhao Yan's gaze growing colder, and his voice gradually lowered.
Zhao Yan sneered. She looked at Zhou Yan, then at her nephew, and asked him, "Xiao Liang, do you think so too?"
Zhao Liang subconsciously wanted to say "yes", but Zhao Yan looked at him coldly. Even a fool could tell that Zhao Yan's attitude was wrong. He suddenly remembered Zhao Yan's instructions to him after she woke up. She once said that the two were their lifesavers. He must not be an ungrateful person who repays kindness with enmity, nor should he cause trouble for them again. He suddenly broke out in a cold sweat!
He now understood that Zhao Yan obviously thought Zhou Zhou's statement was wrong. Fortunately, he did not nod, otherwise...
Seeing that he didn't say anything, Zhao Yan said, "Xiaoliang, why don't you say anything? Tell me, what are you thinking?"
Zhao Liang glanced at Zhou Zhou guiltily and said to Zhao Yan, "Aunt! Of course I don't think so." When he said this, seeing Zhou Zhou's grim expression, he added, "But aunt, Afang has been kidnapped after all. She is a girl. If she is taken advantage of... we must find a way to save her! But now, only those two can help!"
Zhou Zhou was filled with resentment when he heard Zhao Liang’s denial, but when he saw that he still spoke well of him, he took the opportunity to say, “Yes, Sister Zhao! I have no choice! When I think of Afang…she was ruined by those worse than beasts, my heart aches!” He knelt down again, grabbed Zhao Yan’s legs and said, “Sister Zhao! Sister Zhao, please save her!”
Zhao Yan sighed. Of course, she also wanted to save Afang, but she knew even more clearly that those two were not easy to deal with. They had already done their best for people like them. If they continued to trouble them, it would be too much!
She pulled Zhou Zhou up and asked him, "Where are you going to find them?"
Such a simple question stumped Zhou Zhou. Yes, where should he go to find them? He didn't even know where those two people lived!
They all lived in the shantytown. Although the incident between Fang Yuxin and Bai Ye had caused a big stir and many people knew about it, apart from the people in that community and the big guys in the safe zone, not many other people in the safe zone knew about it, and the news was covered up by the Honor Mercenary Group.
Once this kind of thing gets out, it will damage the reputation and status of the Honor Mercenary Group, so Guan Rong naturally won't let it go.
So until now, Zhao Yan and Zhou Zhou still didn't know what happened between Fang Yuxin and Bai Ye. If they knew, they wouldn't need to find them, they just need to mention their names to make people afraid to touch them easily.
Not to mention that they didn't know where the two lived, even if they knew, they couldn't see them! They haven't even applied for their ID cards yet, and they can't even pay the entrance fee! What's more, it's already late, and you can't walk around in the safe zone, so they can't get out of the shantytown at all!
Zhou Zhou was too anxious to ignore this matter. After Zhao Yan said this, his face quickly turned pale, and he sat on the ground dejectedly, grabbing his hair and crying.
Zhao Yan sighed, hesitated for a moment and said, "How about this, I'll go and ask with you. They can't just take people away casually, they have to give an explanation."
Zhou Zhou was actually in despair, but when he heard Zhao Yan say this, he still looked at Zhao Yan with gratitude and went with her to find someone to inquire about the matter.
Zhao Liang originally wanted to go along, but Zhao Yan was worried about him and afraid that he might say something wrong, so he didn't let him go. Zhao Liang was dissatisfied, but after Zhao Yan glared at him fiercely, he had no choice but to stay at home obediently.
They lived in a shantytown that was later built by earth-type mutants. The houses were low and narrow, lined up in rows with only a two-meter-wide aisle in the middle.
There is a duty room at the outermost part of the shantytown, which is a rest room specially prepared for the guards on patrol. According to Zhou Zhou, Afang was caught in it.
Zhao Yan followed him all the way here. It was very dim at night. The houses on both sides were pitch black, without any light. However, there were ambiguous moans coming from many houses, which made the two frown.
Conditions in the last days are harsh, and people's nerves are always tense, so they naturally need to vent and relieve. Therefore, many people rely on carnal desires to relieve the depression and excessive pressure in their hearts.
Zhao Yan and Zhou Zhou knew about this matter, but one of them was old and the other had his girlfriend arrested, so when they thought about what Afang might have experienced and heard such voices, they naturally felt uncomfortable.
Zhou Zhou's expression became increasingly ugly. He kept his face tense and walked forward, his pace getting faster and faster. Zhao Yan looked at him worriedly, but could not say anything.
Soon, they saw the duty room not far ahead. There was an orange light coming through the window, and it was the only place with lights on.
Zhou Zhou's eyes lit up and he walked faster. But when he was still five meters away from the duty room, a dark figure suddenly rushed out, pointed a gun at them, and shouted, "Who are you? What are you doing out here at this time? Speak!"
Zhou Zhou's face changed, and he was about to speak subconsciously, but was stopped by Zhao Yan, who said, "My niece was taken into the duty room by your people. I just want to ask, what's going on? You can't just arrest people casually, right?"
The light was too dim and she couldn't see the other person's expression clearly, so she couldn't help but feel a little worried.
However, just when Zhao Yan thought that the other party would not speak, he sneered and said disdainfully: "Is your niece the woman named Afang? She came here voluntarily, don't you know?"
"What?"
"This is impossible!"
Zhao Yan and Zhou Zhou exclaimed at the same time!
