Chapter 503: Neil Finally Said Something
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Li Ao immediately put the pink kitten phone cover on his cell phone and reached out his hand to Han Miao.
Han Miao didn’t need to ask to know what Li Ao wanted to do.
Han Miao obediently handed her cell phone to Li Ao. She watched as Li Ao took off the diamond cell phone cover on her cell phone and put on the black panther cell phone cover for her.
Only after doing all this was Li Ao satisfied.
Seeing that he really liked it, Han Miao added. “After we graduate from high school, we will change our cell phone casing to a couple photo. At that time, the form teacher and the dean won’t care about our relationship anymore.”
Li Ao nodded vigorously.
Han Miao stayed in Li Ao’s room for a while before returning.
But Li Ao couldn’t fall asleep. At this moment, he was filled with inspiration. He immediately walked into the studio, opened many oil paintings, laid out three to four pieces of paper, and drew an honest-looking pink kitten on each piece of paper.
In the afternoon, Han Miao went to class and realized that Li Ao had not come to class. Worried that Li Ao was feeling unwell, she applied for leave to rest at home. She only received Li Ao’s message when class was ending in the afternoon.
Li Ao: [I am drawing. I am not going to class today. I will fetch you tonight.]
Han Miao: [Okay.]
When the genius painter was inspired, he could skip classes at home to compose. This was a privilege.
After the second night self-study ended, Han Miao ran to the noticeboard to wait for Han Jun. In the end, she received a message from Han Jun.
Han Jun: [From today onwards, I have to attend three evening self-studies every night to teach questions to my classmates.] Han Jun was the god of studies. Her thinking and solution sometimes made the teacher’s eyes light up. The teacher wanted to use the evening self-study time to let Han Jun explain her solution to her classmates.
Han Miao received the message and replied Han Jun: [You go to class. Neil is here to fetch me. I will go to school with him.]
Han Jun: [Mmm, send me a message when you get home.]
Han Miao: [Mmm.]
Han Miao pulled the straps of her bag and ran towards the school gate.
She ran out of the school gate but didn’t see Li Ao.
Han Miao called Li Ao and received a reminder on the phone.
“Who are you calling?” Han Miao waited at the school gate for another two minutes but still didn’t see Li Ao.
She was about to go home alone when she received Li Ao’s message: [Miao ~ I am feeling slightly unwell at Heyang Park. Can you come and accompany me?]
There was a Qingyuan River north of Wangdong High School. It was a tributary of the Imperial Dragon River. There was a park built there and it was where the students and their parents went for a walk.
After receiving the message, Han Miao didn’t hesitate and walked towards the park.
After Han Miao arrived at the park, she stood near the road and sent Li Ao a voice message on WeChat. She asked him: [Neil, where are you? I’m at the entrance and don’t see you.]
Li Ao replied: [On a bench near the river.]
Han Miao walked towards the river and saw a slender young man sitting on a bench by the river from afar. He was indeed very similar to Li Ao. Han Miao didn’t have any doubts and strode towards him. She patted Li Ao’s shoulder from behind. “Neil, I’m here. Where are you feeling unwell?”
The young man under her palm silently turned around and suddenly raised his hand to scatter a handful of light gray powder at Han Miao.
The moment Han Miao smelled that thing, she felt dizzy. She supported herself on the chair and staggered down. She saw a face wearing a crying mask.
The mask on that person’s face moved. Under the mask, a sinister and evil smile split open on a red lips. “Hehehe, you are so beautiful. I feel uncomfortable seeing your face...”
Oh no!
Han Miao quickly lost consciousness.
When Han Miao woke up again, she was locked in a small room amidst a wave of shaking. But the room was very dark and she couldn’t see clearly. Her limbs were not tied up.
Han Miao heard something. She focused for a moment and listened carefully, before realizing that it was the sound of waves.
I’m at sea?
Han Miao stared at the tightly shut door. Through a sealed glass window behind her, she could see the bright moon hanging in the distant sky.
It was almost the Mid-Autumn Festival.
Han Miao stared at the full moon and thought of Li Ao, who had disappeared. Her heart clenched. Where is Li Ao? Is he also on this ship?
Why did the kidnapper bring me to the boat?
Is he trying to dump me into the sea of corpses?
Or did he want to smuggle me overseas and sell me?
Or does he want to do something else?
Han Miao’s imagination ran wild for a long time. Gradually, the sun rose.
In the morning, when the sun shone on the sea, the hidden person also woke up.
Han Miao heard the sound of leather shoes hitting the empty and deep corridor.
Someone opened the small window above the door. The middle of the window was blocked by a metal fence. It could be handed in from the outside, but it was impossible for the person inside to climb out.
Someone threw in a piece of bread and some milk.
Han Miao checked the items and confirmed that they were all unopened. Only then did she tear open the bag and eat. No matter what, she had to fill her stomach first and live as long as possible.
Han Miao had just finished the bread and had yet to drink the milk when she heard someone knocking on the gong outside. It was very noisy.
Han Miao instinctively put down the milk in her hand and heard a male voice.
It was that man’s voice from last night. He was saying, “Welcome to my mysterious country, beautiful and handsome young people.”
People.
In other words, I am not the only one locked up on this ship.
Perhaps Li Ao was among them.
Han Miao forced herself to calm down. She sat on the sofa in the small room and heard the man say, “We have a total of 13 people here. We still have 10 days before reaching the shore, but I didn’t expect so many guests to come to my place. I only prepared food for five people.”
Hearing this, Han Miao’s heart thumped.
That person added. “Then next, we can only use elimination to deal with some guests who don’t know manners.”
The man chuckled and said, “Everyone, please walk out of your room and stand at the door. It’s time for me to meet you.”
The electronic lock on the door was opened.
Han Miao was pulled out of the door by a man wearing a hood. She stood with her back against the door. She didn’t dare to turn her head and look around, afraid of being labeled as’ impolite ‘.
Soon, everyone stood up. Han Miao saw a young man in black standing outside the fourth room on the left.
It was Li Ao!
Li Ao also clearly saw Han Miao. He was looking at her silently and didn’t dare to act rashly.
]Meanwhile, the kidnapper behind him was wearing a dark gray gentleman suit and sitting on an European-style sofa. He had a smiley face mask on his face and crossed his legs. His eyes pierced through the eyeholes of the mask as he observed everyone coldly and reservedly.
The people standing in front of him were undoubtedly beautiful and handsome.
After sizing them up for a moment, the man suddenly said, “Everyone, please face me, raise your heads, and let me take a good look at you.” With that, the bodyguard standing behind the masked man instantly loaded the gun.
hat voice made everyone shiver. They hurriedly turned around obediently and looked up at the masked man.
Everyone else was taking the opportunity to size up the man, except for Li Ao, who was sizing up Han Miao from behind. Seeing that Han Miao’s arms and legs were intact and there were no signs of being bullied, he secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
At this moment, the masked man snapped his fingers and said, “I was rash to wear a mask to show myself.”
With that, he took off his mask without warning.
Instantly, an ugly and twisted rotten face covered in sores appeared in front of everyone!
Hiss...
Han Miao was scared by that ugly face. She couldn’t help pinching her thigh hard, afraid that she would cry out.
She was very smart. The moment she saw that the kidnapped people were all beautiful and that the kidnappers were always wearing masks, she guessed that this person’s appearance might be problematic.
But she didn’t expect him to be so ugly.
The moment this person spoke, he said that he wanted to eliminate some “rude” guests. Then, showing obvious disdain and disgust towards a person’s appearance was a kind of rude behavior.
A rude person would suffer.
Han Miao could think of this, but the others could not.
Instantly, Han Miao was surrounded by screams of shock and fear.
Li Ao had been observing Han Miao and didn’t notice the man’s actions. Instead, he was lucky enough to escape.
When that man spoke, the rotten flesh on his face moved. “Looks like my ugly appearance scared my guests. But what should I do? My face can’t be treated anymore. The ugly me can’t disappear from this world, so...”
The man raised his malicious face, pointed, and said to the bodyguards behind him, “Throw all those who screamed into the sea to feed the sharks!”
A group of bodyguards walked out from behind that man and roughly dragged out the group of people who were screaming in shock. Seeing this scene, some of the timid people’s legs went limp in fear, but they didn’t even have the courage to fall to the ground.
With a distant splash, the six people who were carried out were thrown into the sea to feed the sharks.
The remaining seven people heard the sound of water falling one after another. Their faces instantly turned pale, but they didn’t even dare to breathe loudly.
“One, two, three... seven.” The man counted the number and said with a headache, “I’m worried. There seems to be two more people.” The man suddenly pointed at Han Miao and said, “Little beauty, walk out and let me see.”
Han Miao’s eyelids twitched.
I am going to die here today.
Han Miao walked out of the crowd and stood in front of the man, boldly looking straight at his face.
The man also stared at Han Miao’s face for a moment before suddenly saying, “In this place, you’re the most beautiful. Seeing you makes me feel that this world is extremely unfair to me.”
The man suddenly threw a dagger to Han Miao and said with interest, “Little beauty, if you can take the initiative to cut your own face, I will let you off today. What do you think?”
Han Miao loved the piano the most. Her hands were Han Miao’s most important organs. But face was everyone’s most important thing. Who was willing to ruin their own looks?
Especially an extremely beautiful girl.
Han Miao struggled for a moment between living an ugly life and dying happily. Then she slowly bent down and picked up the dagger.
It didn’t matter. It didn’t matter if she was disfigured. Even if she was disfigured, her parents wouldn’t not love her. At most, she wouldn’t be able to get married.
Without her life, there was nothing left.
Han Miao had just grabbed the dagger when a person suddenly darted out from behind. That person ran over and snatched the dagger from Han Miao’s hand in front of the ugly man. Then, like a protective calf, he protected Han Miao behind him.
Li Ao looked up with bloodshot eyes and gave that man a fierce and sinister expression. “Ah!” Li Ao let out a strange cry.
The man stared at Li Ao for a moment before saying in a strange tone, “A mute.”
He pointed at Han Miao behind Li Ao and pointed at the knife in Li Ao’s hand. He mocked him. “A mute still wants to be a hero. Hahaha.”
Without a word, Li Ao raised his dagger and stabbed at the man.
The bodyguard behind the man suddenly stretched out his long leg and kicked Li Ao away.
As Li Ao was not in good health when he was young, he was not considered a strong man. He was kicked by a 1.9-meter strong man and instantly fell to the ground. His face was pale from the pain.
Li Ao wanted to stand up, but his bones were too painful and he couldn’t succeed for a moment.
When Han Miao saw this scene, her eyes finally widened. She spat at the man with the rotten face, spat out a mouthful of saliva, and scolded angrily, “Son of a turtle, don’t bully him! You should blame your parents for being ugly. Why do you want to bully us?!”
The man was enraged. He suddenly snatched the hand on the waist of the bodyguard behind him, grabbed Han Miao’s arm, and pulled her to the sofa.
The man stepped on Han Miao’s back with one leg, raised the gun, and aimed it at her head.
Han Miao leaned her face against the sofa and faced the direction where Li Ao had fallen.
Han Miao finally regretted being stepped on by the man.
She should have learned martial arts from her father since she was young. At this moment, it was better to fight than play the piano.
If Han Jun was facing such a situation, she would have definitely resisted with all her might and successfully counterattacked.
The man warned Han Miao. “Stupid girl, behave yourself!” He looked down at Li Ao again like he was looking at a funny little mouse.
Li Ao looked at him angrily like a little beast that was on the verge of death but refused to resign to fate. He bared his fangs at the enemy who hurt him.
Seeing Li Ao’s indignant gaze, the man smiled maliciously and made a difficult request. “Little guy, if you can speak, I will let your little girlfriend go.”
The man pointed at a publicity column behind him and said, “That’s it. Socialist core values!”
Han Miao scolded again. “Bastard! He’s a mute! It’s not fair for you to force him to speak!”
“Shut up!” The man despised Han Miao for being annoying and got someone to tape her mouth.
Han Miao: “Wuwuwuwuwuwu...”
Li Ao stared at the words “the core values of socialism” and then looked at Han Miao, who was mercilessly stepped on by a man. He saw Han Miao’s face turn pale from the pain and her forehead break out in cold sweat. He felt an indescribable sense of guilt and self-blame.
If only I could speak!
If only I can speak!
He wanted to speak, but just as he opened his mouth, a terrifying command sounded in his mind.
I’ll beat you to death if you dare to speak!
Li Ao felt like there were thousands of needles piercing his throat. It was so painful that it was sharp.
But at this moment, the man loaded the bullet, moved his finger to the trigger, and made a posture where he could pull the trigger at any time, shoot the bullet, and kill Han Miao!
Li Ao’s heart tightened!
At that moment, he heard something disintegrate in his mind.
He suddenly hugged his ears with both hands and opened his mouth desperately, letting out a hoarse and painful roar. “Don’t... don’t kill her!”
As the young man had not spoken for a long time, his voice suddenly trembled. The voice that came out was so hoarse and unpleasant, like the knife edge carving deep marks along the rock.
No matter how hard a rock was, as long as one saber mark was carved, it was very easy to carve a second and third one!
“Don’t kill her!”
Li Ao’s eyes were red as he roared, “You’re not allowed to kill her!”
“I can’t... I can’t lose her!”
I can’t lose her!
That was my Little Sun!
Hearing Li Ao’s voice, Han Miao’s eyes widened. She looked at the pained youth in shock, her heart in turmoil. She was both touched and regretful. She really hoped that Li Ao would take the initiative to speak in a blissful situation and not at such a critical moment.
The two young men were immersed in an atmosphere of grief and indignation, but no one noticed that the originally terrified young boys and girls, as well as the bodyguards behind them with rotten faces, all revealed relieved smiles.
The ugly-faced man raised his feet and handed the gun to the bodyguard. He picked up his cell phone and made a call. He said respectfully, “Miss, it succeeded.”
