The man in the black robe finally walked into an old and dilapidated residential community.
The iron gates in the community were somewhat rusty. When opened, they creaked loudly, which was quite ear - piercing.
Little Tuanzi squinted her eyes slightly and quietly observed the surrounding environment.
It was a very simple small house. The furnishings inside were just like those of an ordinary family, and there was nothing unusual.
After entering the house, the man in the black robe still didn't put down Miaomiao on his shoulder. Instead, he walked towards the wardrobe.
The wardrobe was opened. The man in the black robe seemed to be fumbling for something. After a while, there was a sudden click sound behind the wardrobe. Then the man in the black robe took Miaomiao and directly got in.
There was actually a whole new world hidden in this small house.
Behind the wardrobe was a secret passage and a hidden chamber. The dim corridor was completely dark. The narrow and cramped space was dark and damp, just like the man in the black robe himself, who couldn't stand the light.
As they walked, a red dim light appeared in the distance. The man in the black robe walked in, put Little Tuanzi on the ground, took out a rope and tied Miaomiao's hands to a pillar, then left the chamber.
Hearing the footsteps gradually fade away, Miaomiao tentatively opened one eye.
This chamber was not big, only about twenty or thirty square meters. In front of Miaomiao was a table, which took up half of the room.
There were all kinds of bottles and jars of different sizes on the table. The only thing they had in common was their color.
Little Tuanzi turned her head slightly. There was a young woman tied beside her. The woman had shoulder - length hair. She looked about in her twenties and was sleeping with her eyes closed.
Miaomiao shifted her gaze. A row of ants passing by on the ground caught her attention.
She was tied up and couldn't move. Her hands and feet hadn't regained their strength yet. Now she could only count the ants to kill time.
Little Tuanzi was extremely bored. She was so bad at math that she couldn't even count the ants correctly. Finally, she simply stared blankly with her mouth open.
She was just spacing out.
"Little girl, how did you end up here?" The woman beside her didn't know when she had opened her eyes and asked weakly.
"I was kidnapped."
Miaomiao thought carefully. Well, in her current situation, she was indeed kidnapped.
"These crazy bastards." The woman gritted her teeth and said hatefully. Then she turned to look at Miaomiao, calmed down her angry tone and continued gently, "Little girl, don't be afraid. Sister is a police officer. Sister will protect you."
Miaomiao turned her head and sized up this sister who claimed to be a police officer.
She had strong muscles. Her calf muscles were relatively well - developed, probably because of long - term running. Her arm muscles were still a bit slender, lacking strength, but her explosive power and jumping ability should be okay.
But...
Really? Protect her?
It wasn't that Little Tuanzi looked down on others. She had a clear understanding of her own fighting ability. Among the people Miaomiao knew at present, only the old master could say this to her.
Moreover, judging from the situation, this little sister probably couldn't even withstand one move from that man in the black robe.
"Thank you, sister. But Miaomiao can protect sister."
The woman was being kind after all, so Little Tuanzi politely thanked her and stated the truth.
When the woman saw Little Tuanzi seriously saying that she could protect a police officer, she couldn't help laughing out loud. She just thought Miaomiao was extremely cute.
Like coaxing a child, she simply agreed, "Okay, okay, okay. Miaomiao can protect sister."
"Neither of you can protect each other."
The man in the black robe returned again and stood in the dark, saying gloomily.
Little Tuanzi had already noticed the figure of the man in the black robe, but she just ignored him. After all, she had no strength now and couldn't beat him. It was useless to respond.
"Doing such immoral things, you will surely be punished by the law sooner or later."
It seemed that the police officer sister was a person with backbone. The appearance of the man in the black robe didn't make her feel the slightest bit flustered. Instead, she warned him righteously.
The man in the black robe let out a heh - heh laugh. It was impossible to see his face in the shadow, and no one knew what expression he had.
"Heh - heh, you've been trying so hard to catch me for so many years. You're the first one who managed to get close to me. You're quite skillful. It's all my stupid son's fault. He couldn't take his eyes off a pretty girl. Your honey - trap worked well. But your just undercover career will end today."
"Pah."
The police officer sister knew her current situation. She was like a piece of meat on the chopping board, at the mercy of others and helpless.
However, as a defender of the people, she must never bow to evil forces.
Once her undercover identity was exposed, the only outcome was death. Countless colleagues had sacrificed during undercover operations and arrests. She knew this, but she wasn't afraid at all.
She only regretted that she was just one step away from finding out this man's drug - manufacturing location. If she could collect the evidence, she could wipe out the whole gang.
It was a pity that she didn't have a chance to pass on the powerful evidence she had collected to her superiors.
"You two little girls, why do you have to do such things? One of you insists on being an undercover agent around me, and the other keeps ruining my plans. I've been so careful. Why do you keep bothering me? Oh, forget it. It's useless to talk to you about this. Let me show you where you're going to end up later."
The man in the black robe slowly walked towards the table, turned one of the black clay pots half a turn, and the wall slowly opened upwards.
There was actually another chamber inside the chamber.
A strong floral fragrance immediately filled the whole dark room. All that could be seen was red.
The charming red flowers, the red soil, the red lights, and the red liquid sprayed from the sprinkler.
A section of a white jade bi was protruding from the soil, looking extremely out of place.
Little Tuanzi and the police officer sister saw the hand with the ring at a glance. The police officer sister's eyes immediately turned red. She stared fixedly at the man in the black robe and spat out curses loudly.
"Hey, why are you scolding me? I'm just doing my job. Wait a minute. Let me dig through the soil. I don't know if there's still room for you two."
The man in the black robe didn't care about the police officer sister's curses at all. He casually picked up a hoe at hand and started digging the soil.
"Ah, I found it. Oh, I almost forgot. I sent out a batch of flowers the other day. This place is just empty. Look at my memory. I'm getting old and useless."
The man in the black robe mumbled while digging. Soon he dug a small pit in that empty space.
Miaomiao slowly turned her wrist. It seemed that her strength had recovered a lot.
After the man in the black robe finished digging the pit, he threw down the hoe and turned to walk towards Miaomiao. His eyes kept shifting between the two of them, as if he was thinking about which one to bury first.
"Hey, it's you. It's easier to bury a kid. The pit I dug isn't big enough. I'd have to dig more to bury you. It's too much trouble."
After saying that, the man in the black robe was about to reach out and untie Miaomiao's rope.
Miaomiao tilted her head and looked at his actions. Suddenly she said, "Ah, don't move."
The man in the black robe was a bit confused. He stopped his hand and asked in bewilderment, "Huh?"
"Ah! I've got my strength back."
