Chapter 423
…
Jing Li had been leaving early and returning late these days, so Mu Jiao knew he was definitely up to something again. However, she hadn't expected him to actually be planning a prison break! No, to be more precise, he was inciting the prison inmates to riot.
In an inconspicuous corner of the square, several tattered iron barrels were piled together in a mess. Mu Jiao saw the gap in the middle, jumped up, and stood carefully in the middle of the barrels. The tall iron barrels almost completely covered Mu Jiao's figure.
Mu Jiao listened to a young man giving a passionate speech on a high platform in the distance. The crowd below was densely packed and the atmosphere was boiling.
Through the gap in the barrel, Mu Jiao saw Jing Li standing on the stage, scanning the crowd below.
Before the other person's gaze reached her, Mu Jiao's heart tightened and she instinctively squatted down. She had escaped secretly. If Jing Li, that psychopath, saw her, she would be doomed. She didn't know how he would deal with her. She really couldn't bear to be locked up in the room for a few more days.
Being locked up these days was really too suffocating. Today, for some reason, after Mu Jiao opened the door, she didn't see the two "supervisors" who had been guarding the door. Mu Jiao first tentatively stuck her body out, then her feet, and there was indeed no one there, so she sneaked out.
After being locked up for a long time, she was finally able to come out and take a breath. Mu Jiao's steps were brisk at first, and she was in a rare happy mood. However, after she walked happily for a while, she found that the surroundings were surprisingly quiet. The doors and windows of several rooms she passed by were also closed. Mu Jiao's happy mood became uneasy.
Mu Jiao wanted to go back, but then she realized that she had just gone through twists and turns, ups and downs, and now she could not remember where she was.
So, she successfully got lost.
At this time, Mu Jiao couldn't help but feel a little panicked. The experience when she first came here was still vivid in her mind. Mu Jiao knew that this was not a good place. The people here were all bloodthirsty. Her natural abilities were suppressed. What if she met a bad guy... She couldn't even imagine it.
Although she really wanted to stay away from Jingli, the psychopath, and wanted to escape, the premise of all this was that she had to save her own life.
So, Mu Jiao began to try to find the way back in fear. However, the happier she was when running, the harder it was to go back. After walking in twists and turns for a long time, she didn't find her original residence. Instead, she followed the noise and came to the square where she had just arrived.
The passionate speech on the platform inciting a riot continued, and the crowd below was incited and ready to riot at any time. Mu Jiao, who was squatting behind the iron barrel, watched all this through the gap and felt terrified.
Fortunately, this group of people did not take any immediate action. After agreeing to launch a riot three days later, they disbanded on the spot and went about their own business.
Mu Jiao breathed a sigh of relief. There were no people in the square at this moment. Mu Jiao saw that Jing Li had gone down from the platform and was about to leave. She quickly stood up, thinking of following him secretly to find a place to stay, but she heard a rough voice as soon as she stood up.
"So he's hiding here. It's really hard for us to find him."
Then she was lifted out from between several tall barrels by the back of her neck.
"You..." Mu Jiao only had time to glance at the two men in front of her, one strong and one thin, before her neck felt a pain, her eyes went dark, and she lost consciousness.
