Chapter 153 Paralysis of the Lower Limbs
"I'm fine. Actually, I discovered their plan and was brought here because of it."
Jiang Lunnan explained how he got here, and Xu Yangyang breathed a sigh of relief after hearing his words: "It's really good that they didn't force you to faint."
Jiang Lunnan, who had been worried about Xu Yangyang, heard her say this and carefully examined her body: "I thought you were also brought here after being knocked unconscious."
Xu Yangyang shook her head: "No, I was waiting for you to come back in the room when two aunts broke into the room and knocked me unconscious. When I woke up, I saw the dean."
"I kicked him at that time, but he didn't wake up. It was the aunt who came after you who woke him up. Then, under his instructions, she sent you away and knocked me out."
Xu Yangyang recalled what happened at that time, and she was still frightened: "When I met the dean, I was more prepared than before. I had a silver needle in my hand, and I stabbed him into the acupoint when he was about to pounce on me."
Although Xu Yangyang downplayed it, Jiang Linan could still imagine the urgent situation at that time.
The difference in physical strength forced Xu Yangyang to resort to this desperate measure. In the darkness of the room, she couldn't see Jiang Lunnan's expression clearly. She continued to talk to herself, "The dean was paralyzed from the waist down by my needles. He was carried out by my aunt. I haven't seen him for a long time."
"He's paralyzed?" Jiang Linan had never known Xu Yangyang to be so powerful, and looked at her in surprise.
"Yes, I think he couldn't find a way to recover, so he planned to attack you, and threatened me to help him recover." Xu Yangyang put his hand on Jiang Lunnan's face: "I'm the one who implicated you."
"How can you say that?" Jiang Linan frowned unhappily. "If anyone needs to apologize, it should be me. I didn't protect you well enough, leaving you locked up in a place like this, and having to do everything possible to save yourself."
Because he had just arrived here, Jiang Linan didn't know that Xu Yangyang hadn't eaten properly for three days and was very weak after paralyzing the dean's lower body.
When he picked up Xu Yangyang, he clearly felt that something was wrong with her body.
"What exactly did they do to you?" Jiang Linan suppressed his anger, not wanting to hurt Xu Yangyang because of his anger like before.
"I didn't agree to help him recover his lower body, so he only gave me a piece of bread and a little water a day, hanging on to my life." Xu Yangyang smiled weakly. "Later, he saw that I was too stubborn, so he captured you and threatened me."
Jiang Linan fell silent. He had thought of many possibilities, but he had never imagined that Xu Yangyang would suffer such abuse.
"Don't be angry, calm down, think positively, haven't I been beaten like those kids yet?"
Xu Yangyang held Jiang Linan's hand, and they sat on the bed together, thinking about how to leave here.
"I still had the strength to escape from here on the first day I arrived. After I paralyzed his lower body, I wanted to escape from here."
With Jiang Runan by her side, Xu Yangyang suddenly felt that life was not as difficult as before and she had hope of living.
"This should be the real confinement room that the children mentioned. I found many marks of whipping on the wall, but the wall is very thick. I knocked hard once, but there was no sound."
"The main door is also a seamless whole. Apart from the small window below where food can be delivered, the only thing left is the iron window on the door that allows you to see outside."
Xu Yangyang pointed to the iron window through which a ray of light could be seen and sighed, "Since I came here, I've heard many children crying. They all said they had done something wrong and hoped the director would let them out."
But all this stems from the dean's greed, what does it have to do with these children?
"You mean, there were a lot of children crying?" Jiang Linan seemed to have grasped the key point. "In other words, the missing children are actually imprisoned in this place?"
This also explains why his men and the police couldn't find the person.
With such hidden mechanisms and secret doors, and thick walls, not to mention the police, even the armed police would not be able to find the children's traces without special infrared equipment!
"Yes, it should be nighttime now, so they are all asleep and you can't hear any noise." Xu Yangyang carefully recalled the source of the noises she had heard in the past few days: "According to the direction I identified, we should be quite far away from those children now. We may need to go deeper into the corridor to see them."
Jiang Runan recalled the distance he was dragged, and it seemed that he was very close to the location of the secret door.
It seems that the dean is still wary of Xu Yangyang. He even locks her up and doesn't leave her with the children. Is he afraid that she will affect the children's obedience?
"Now I can only see the food delivery lady once a day, but since you were caught here, they should come to find me soon."
Xu Yangyang thought as she spoke, "The dean had a breakdown after his lower limbs became paralyzed. I don't think he can wait much longer."
"I haven't seen anyone here except my aunt. Who dragged you in?" Xu Yangyang suddenly became very curious. Jiang Runan was a man after all, and his weight was not comparable to that of a woman. An ordinary aunt could not drag Jiang Runan.
"I was brought here by a man. I thought it was the dean, but now I think he must be their accomplice."
Otherwise, it would be impossible to transfer so many children in large numbers with just a few women.
"So, if we want to leave this confinement room, we need to explain the situation to Auntie and the director." Xu Yangyang stared at the door, listening carefully to the voice coming from above: "As long as I agree with the director and help him regain sensation in his lower body, we will have a chance to leave this confinement room."
She would not give up on saving these children, and leaving here was only the first step.
"The dean will be a great threat to us after he regains consciousness. He is also very thoughtful and might even figure out our plan."
Jiang Linan also felt that the dean was a difficult person to deal with. Judging from his level of sophistication, it was not something that ordinary people had. He even began to doubt the dean's identity.
"Of course I have to do the whole act, and you must cooperate with me when the time comes." Xu Yangyang smiled and squeezed Jiang Linan's hand. With his presence, many of Xu Yangyang's strategies came into play.
Jiang Linan agreed and hugged Xu Yangyang: "They haven't come yet, you should rest first. I will call you as soon as there is any situation."
Xu Yangyang nodded and fell asleep in his arms.
Hungry and cold, every time she slept here she felt like she was in a coma, and she rarely had the chance to relax and rest completely.
This time with Jiang Linan by her side, she felt safe enough to really relax and have a good sleep.
