It’s not because there’s no one inside, but because they are too poor to buy candles, let alone the funds for electricity.
“Pah.”
As heavy footsteps were heard, Gong Yu pulled a cruel smile at the corner of his mouth.
She ignored the three people following behind her and continued walking forward.
Suddenly, around a corner, Gong Yu's figure disappeared from the sight of the three people.
"What about the little girl?"
"Lost him?"
"Pah! How could such a big, fat sheep just run away?"
The three of them did not speak the Mandarin commonly used in the inland, but pure Cantonese.
Just as the three of them were shouting in unfavorable words, a calm and pleasant voice came from behind them. The voice was in authentic Cantonese, as if it was a native Hong Kong person.
"Are you looking for me?"
The three of them turned around.
The sun was setting, and the last ray of light fell on Gong Yu, stretching her shadow very long and finally disappearing into the darkness.
White cloth shoes, neat jeans, a clean jacket, a high ponytail and a black backpack make her look like a good student.
The three of them were stunned for a moment when they saw Gong Yu, but quickly regained their greedy expressions.
"Little sister, where are you going?"
"From the looks of you, you should be living in the Second Ring Road, right? How did you end up in our outer area?"
"Are you lost? Do you want us brothers to take you home?"
Many people in HK usually call the wealthy area the inner circle, the common people area the second ring, and the slums the outer ring.
The three of them smiled wickedly, exchanged glances, and said something that seemed kind-hearted, walking towards Gong Yu.
As he spoke, one of them put his hand on Gong Yu's shoulder.
Just as his hand was about to touch Gong Yu, he suddenly felt a gust of wind passing through his palm. Gong Yu had unknowingly taken a step to the side and avoided the man's hand.
"How do I get to the colorful world?" Gong Yu asked coldly.
This is Gong Yu’s main purpose for coming to HK.
The Colorful World is a notorious brothel in the slums.
And she was going there to find someone.
In her previous life, Gong Yu had been to HK several times, but when she came, HK was no longer what it is today, and the colorful world had long since closed down, and its whereabouts were hard to find.
Gong Yu's question made the three of them laugh.
"Hahaha...why are you asking this as a kid?"
"Could it be that you are going to sell yourself in the world of pleasure?"
"Since we're going to sell it anyway, why not just take care of us first? Just think of it as training before we go into business."
The three of them smiled filthy smiles and rushed towards Gong Yu.
“Ah—ah—ah—”
After three consecutive screams, the three men were kicked to the ground by Gong Yu. Their ribs were broken and pierced into their lungs. The pain was so severe that even breathing felt like a heart-wrenching pain.
They looked at the smiling Gong Yu in horror.
That smile was bloodthirsty and cold.
"How do I get to the colorful world?" Gong Yu asked again, feeling so cold that her bones were frozen.
"Over there, over there..."
They pointed their fingers in panic, cooperating in every possible way, hoping that the evil spirit would go away.
Gong Yu looked up and said with a twitch of his lips: "Thank you."
After saying that, she stepped over the three people and walked forward.
"Well--"
Before the three of them could relax, they suddenly felt their hearts turn cold and died.
A dagger was inserted into the chest of each of the three men, a fatal blow.
Gong Yu withdrew his hand, patted it casually, and walked away as if nothing had happened.
…
The colorful world.
It is called a brothel, but in fact it is just a pile of wooden boards nailed into square grids, connected in a neat row for people to have fun in.
