Fu Xiaohan grabbed his phone and answered hurriedly, "Mi'er, Mi'er, is that you?"
"Young Master Fu." A man's voice came from the phone.
Where is my wife?!
"Don't rush, let her put in a good word for you."
The man grabbed Tang Xingmi's hair and yanked it hard; her pained voice came from the other end of the phone.
A sharp pain shot through Fu Xiaohan's heart, his eyes burning with fierce fire. "You're courting death!"
"If you want to save your wife, come to Moonfrost Mountain alone. If you dare to call the police, you will never see her again."
After saying that, the man hung up the phone.
Fu Xiaohan's eyes welled up with tears. He tried to calm himself down and hold back the tears that were about to fall.
The air pressure around him instantly turned cold, and his phoenix eyes flashed with a chilling coldness.
He said to Assistant Song, "Zhirang, notify Officer Gao to take men to Yuehan Mountain. Without my orders, they are not to act rashly."
"yes."
Upon receiving the order, Song Zhirang turned around and hurriedly went to carry it out.
Next, Fu Xiaohan called Leng Ye and Wen Yan, asking them to bring their brothers to Yuehan Mountain so they could coordinate with him from the inside.
Upon receiving Han Ye's order, Leng Ye and Wen Yan dared not delay for a second and immediately notified their subordinates to carry out the task as soon as possible.
Fu Xiaohan opened a drawer, took out a pistol, tucked it into his waistband, ran out of the office, and drove alone at high speed towards Yuehan Mountain.
-
Moonlit Cold Mountain, atop a cliff.
Two girls were tightly bound to two trees from top to bottom with hemp rope.
Their mouths were sealed with black tape.
Her messy hair clung to her cheeks, making her look somewhat disheveled.
Tang Xingmi was awakened by the cold mountain wind.
When she groggily opened her eyes, she found herself unable to move.
Tied to a tree, he was unable to speak.
The cold wind howled, amplifying the fear and dread in my heart.
A group of men dressed in black stood before them, each holding a gleaming silver knife.
There were also twelve men wearing masks.
Each mask features an animal design.
The animals include rat, ox, tiger, rabbit, dragon, snake, horse, sheep, monkey, rooster, dog, and pig.
These twelve men wearing black masks were not carrying anything in their hands.
Look to the side.
It's Yao Yao!
Yao Yao was also tied up with ropes and couldn't move.
Their mouths were sealed shut with black tape, making it impossible for them to speak.
Who exactly are they?
Why did you kidnap me and Yao Yao?
What benefit would they gain from doing this?
Is it for the money?
Tang Xingmi couldn't help but wonder.
Zhou Yao felt guilty as she watched her best friend being tied up.
If it weren't for her, Mimi wouldn't have been kidnapped by them.
In the morning, she rode a shared bicycle to school as usual.
As I walked down the street, I saw a group of people gathered together.
I don't know what happened?
Curious, she went over to take a look.
Then they saw an elderly man with gray hair lying in the middle of the crowd.
The onlookers simply watched and did not offer to help.
When Zhou Yao saw the old man lying pitifully on the ground, she felt guilty and couldn't bear not to help him up, so she took pity on him.
Without thinking, I stepped forward.
People around her kindly reminded her, "Young lady, it's best not to meddle in other people's business. Otherwise, if you get extorted, you might be ruined for the rest of your life."
"Yes, there are many elderly people who specialize in extorting money from others. They will stop at nothing to help people up, and once you do, you'll be extorted."
"That's right. My neighbor once kindly helped someone up, but he was extorted and had to pay tens of thousands of yuan in compensation! His good intentions were not rewarded."
Several women gathered together and started discussing it.
"That's not quite right. There are still many good people in the world. We can't generalize and condemn all elderly people."
One of the middle-aged women was carrying vegetables and looked like she had just come from the supermarket. "What if she really did fall?"
A woman in a black cotton-padded coat said, "Then why didn't you help her up?"
A woman in a blue cotton coat continued, "That's right, you make it sound so nice, but I haven't seen you step forward to help. You've just been standing here watching for ages, completely unmoved, and you're still making such grand pronouncements."
The middle-aged woman fell silent after being spoken to and left the crowd.
She actually wanted to help, but she was afraid.
So he hesitated to go forward.
Zhou Yao listened to everyone talking over each other.
Some even advised her not to help, lest her good intentions be misunderstood.
Zhou Yao, however, did not think so.
She felt that as a college student, she shouldn't be afraid of being scammed and therefore not offer help.
She could ignore it, but her upbringing wouldn't allow her to.
Therefore, Zhou Yao stuck to her opinion.
He went up and helped the old man on the ground.
"See? She was just waiting to be extorted. We told her, but she wouldn't listen. She's so stupid."
"If someone wants to be a good person, we can't stop them."
"People won't learn their lesson until they suffer a loss."
Seeing that Zhou Yao was very stubborn, the women all told her not to help her up, but insisted on helping her up.
They were just waiting to see her get scammed and make a fool of herself.
“Young lady, you can help yourself. I’ll film you. With this evidence, he won’t dare to try to extort money from you.”
A girl in the crowd was holding a phone, recording a video, and speaking up for Zhou Yao.
With this girl's help.
Zhou Yao became even more convinced of herself.
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, they helped the elderly man up from the ground.
"Grandpa, are you alright?"
"Oh, young lady, you are such a kind and good girl. You saved me. Thank you so much."
Everyone was also taken aback.
Surprisingly, the old man didn't try to stage an accident.
He even thanked Zhou Yao on the spot.
Seeing that the young girl had saved the old man, some people began to praise Zhou Yao in various ways.
They praised her, calling her a good young person and a good role model, saying that everyone should learn from her.
Zhou Yao thought to herself, there are still many good people.
Not everyone lying on the ground is a scammer trying to extort money.
The old man she helped today was a good person; he didn't try to scam her.
The crowd dispersed.
Seeing that the old man was alright, Zhou Yao prepared to ride away on her bicycle.
But the old man stopped him.
"Little girl, can you take me home?"
Zhou Yao said, "Grandpa, I have to go to school, so I can't see you off."
"Oh, is that so? Then you go to school, I'll walk back by myself." The old man looked helpless, and with his legs weak, he turned around with a limp.
Seeing that it was still early, and looking at the old man's pitiful state, Zhou Yao felt compassion again.
He agreed, "Grandpa, I'll take you home."
"Young lady, you are such a beautiful and kind girl."
The old man kept praising Zhou Yao.
Everyone likes to be praised, and Zhou Yao is no exception.
Amidst the praise, Zhou Yao couldn't stop smiling.
She was in a good mood because she did a good deed today, and she was even happier when the old man praised her.
The old man chatted with her the whole way.
They took the old man to a narrow alley.
Zhou Yao had a feeling that something was wrong.
But by the time she became wary, it was already too late.
Suddenly, several men rushed out of the alley, one of whom tightly covered her mouth with a handkerchief.
It seemed to have a medicinal smell.
As she struggled in terror, she saw that the old man in front of her was not an old man at all, but a young man wearing a wig and mask!
