The sky had completely turned dark, and only a few street lamps on the small street were lit. The surrounding old and abandoned buildings cast huge and eerie shadows, like phantoms cloaked in darkness.
Shi Nian twisted and turned, darting into a dark alley. There were no lights in the alley, only the faint outline of a wall on one side and a wire fence separating it from the desolate area on the other. She hid behind a pile of abandoned cardboard boxes and dialed Ye He’s phone.
The alley was pitch black, with only a few dim orange streetlights filtering in from outside, barely illuminating a small area near the mouth of the alley. Shi Nian kept her eyes fixed on any movent at the alley’s entrance, and finally managed to dial the phone.
Ye He was shocked after listening: "You hid Nisha’s drugs on yourself? Oh my God, if the police catch you, jumping into the Amazon River won’t wash you clean!"
What Shi Nian didn’t know was that soone had already beaten her to this dark, unlit alley. That person, like a hunter, patiently set up a trap, just waiting for the prey to fall into the net.
Shi Nian realized the trouble too and quickly instructed Ye He: "Drive to the Song Lin Road entrance to pick up..."
Before she could finish speaking, the phone suddenly flew into the sky—
Of course, it wasn’t because Earth’s gravity had reversed, but soone erged from the depths of the alley, calmly reached out, and effortlessly snatched the phone from her fingers, hanging up in one swift motion.
The faint light cut through the darkness and fell on the person’s face, only revealing his sunglasses and the slight curve of mocking red lips beneath them.
——Full of ridicule.
"I heard everything you said. Where did you hide the drugs? Hand them over."
Shi Nian froze, but without hesitation, she scrambled up from the ground and turned to run once more.
Tang Yanqing, frustrated, gritted his teeth and grabbed her arm. As she struggled, he instinctively twisted her wrist and, with a push, pinned her facing the desolate land onto the wire fence!
.
The silent alley, vast expanses of darkness, patient enemies lying in ambush like hunting—she, with no way to escape. Everything in front of her dragged her into past nightmares, fear creeping in uninvited, engulfing her.
Suddenly, Shi Nian went mad, struggling with all her might and screaming hoarsely: "Let go! Bastard, let go!"
Tang Yanqing did not expect such a big reaction from her, and softly urged: "Stop shouting. Hand over the drugs and I’ll let you go."
But Shi Nian seed trapped in a nightmare, continuing to struggle desperately, refusing to comply.
Tang Yanqing couldn’t help but frown and had to cover her mouth with his hand. He bent his knee to press against the back of her knee, suppressing her struggle: "Where are the drugs? Give them to !"
Shi Nian couldn’t speak, only twisting her body frantically, her muffled voice coming from beneath his hand.
Too close together, her struggles felt like an electric current unexpectedly surging through his body. Her panting, her sobbing, like poison, instantly captured his nerves, making him lose control.
He took deep breaths, his voice unintentionally hoarse: "Listen, be good. I’ll release you once I find the drugs."
After speaking, he took out handcuffs and raised her wrists high, cuffing them against the wire fence.
