Chapter Sixty-Eight: Save a Little



The next morning, as soon as her colleagues arrived at work, they saw Yue Jiuling sitting in the office. She was sleeping on her desk, and it seemed that she had been there all night.

Mu Xiaoyi was usually the first one to arrive, and she was very surprised to see Yue Jiuling today: "Wow~ Jiuling, why are you here so early today?"

She put down the breakfast bag in her hand and then nudged Yue Jiuling: "Hey, you didn't stay here all night, did you?"

Awakened, Yue Jiuling looked up, squinted, and said, "Yes, I didn't go back to the dormitory all night, but it's because I caught the person who put the curse on me. They're in the basement now. Go check it out."

After she finished speaking, she lay down again and went back to sleep.

After hearing this, Mu Xiaoyi exclaimed in surprise, "Wow, you're amazing! You caught the person so quickly. Okay, I'll go take a look later. You can continue sleeping. Oh, by the way, I have some breakfast here. Do you want some?"

Yue Jiuling shook her head and said in a muffled voice, "No, I don't want to eat."

Seeing her like this, Mu Xiaoyi ignored her, put down the steamed bun, and went straight to the basement.

Actually, Yue Jiuling wasn't supposed to stay here overnight. However, when she was about to lock up the two people she had captured and go back, she suddenly felt unwell due to unstable spiritual energy. So she stayed here instead of going back to her dormitory to recuperate, afraid of disturbing Bai Xinyu.

Not long after Yue Jiuling lay down to continue sleeping, her other colleagues also came to work one after another. When they saw Yue Jiuling, they were just like Mu Xiaoyi, all very surprised that Yue Jiuling would come so early, knowing that she usually arrived right on time.

Yue Jiuling was so disturbed by the noise that she couldn't sleep, so she simply decided not to sleep and explained again why she was spending the night in the office.

After learning the reason, Bai Xinyu said from the side, "Oh, I see. I knew it. Why didn't you come back last night? You went to catch someone. By the way, are they two people? What do they look like? I'll go downstairs and take a look too."

Xiaobaicai and the others were also very curious about who the person who cast the curse was, so they all ran into the basement, saying they wanted to go and see, and help interrogate them.

Ya Zi sat down next to Yue Jiuling and handed her a carton of milk and a bowl of lean meat porridge: "You haven't had breakfast yet, have you? Would you like some?"

Yue Jiuling nodded and took the bowl of porridge: "Thank you. By the way, aren't you going down to check on things?"

Ya Zi, biting into a sticky rice chicken, said, "No rush, I'll go check later. But I never expected that you would encounter something like this after we separated last night."

Yue Jiuling shook her head and said, "Actually, it's alright. They're just a bunch of scum. I just really hate being schemed against, and I even got splashed with blood. It still makes me feel disgusted when I think about it now."

Yue Jiuling was still very upset when she thought about what happened last night. She opened the bowl of porridge and said while eating, "Later I'm going to stuff them into the toilet and let them experience what it feels like to be surrounded by disgusting things."

In the basement, the old woman had also woken up. She looked at her current situation with great fear and realized that she must have been imprisoned by that monster, so she immediately shook the master lying next to her awake.

"Master, Master, wake up! Where are we? Wake up!"

The middle-aged master had been knocked unconscious by the fall, so he woke up not long after the old lady called him. When he woke up, he was just as worried about his current situation as the old lady.

He said to the older woman, "Sister, don't panic, calm down, let's figure out if we can escape from here."

The older woman looked at the iron bars in front of her and said, "This looks like a dungeon from a TV show! Where's the female monster? Why is she locking us up here?"

The older woman grew increasingly frightened as she looked around: "My God, is she planning to lock us up and torture us slowly?"

The master wasn't initially that scared, but after the old woman's words and witnessing Yue Jiuling's power last night, he started to panic. He forced himself to remain calm and said, "Don't be afraid, we'll be fine. Come on, let's hurry up and find a way to escape while that monster is away."

As he spoke, he tried to open the iron gate that was locked around him, only to find that there was a large iron chain and lock hanging on the gate.

Because this basement was designed and built according to the most basic and primitive prison cell, it contains several ordinary empty rooms. The door to each room is an iron bar door with a small gap, at most enough to stick out a thin arm, and nothing else.

After seeing the large iron lock, the two of them wanted to find something to pick it, but when they turned around, they found that apart from a bed, a sink and a toilet, there was nothing else around. It was so clean that there was hardly any trash or dust.

The woman reached into her pocket, trying to find her house key to unlock the lock, but when she checked her clothes, she found that she had nothing on her!

"Oh my god, my phone, wallet, and keys are all gone. It must have been that monster who took them."

The old woman said to the master with a tearful face.

Upon seeing this, the master immediately reached for his valuables, only to find that they were all gone.

"Tsk! My things are gone too, that wretched vixen!"

Just as the two of them were still racking their brains about how to 'escape', someone suddenly spoke from the cell opposite them.
