Chapter 1665: Good People and Bad People in a Single Thought

~8 min read 1,451 words

Zihan took out his phone to call the police, but this man warned: "It's useless. This place is a mixed bag; calling the police is completely pointless. Even if the police come, they won't find anyone, and you won't be able to leave either."

Seeing that he seemed to know everything, Sheng Zihan had a flash of inspiration; he took out his wallet and shoved it into the man's hand.

"Big Brother, if you help me find that girl, all of this is yours."

In the wallet was his tuition for the next semester and his living expenses for the month, nearly ten thousand.

The dock worker felt the thickness of the wallet, then smiled and shoved it back: "I'm not getting involved. It's not worth risking my life for this little bit of money."

"There's also this; this is for you too." He took off the pendant around his neck and shoved it into the man's hand.

This pendant was a gold medal, a gift he had specifically requested for his birthday.

When the other children of the Sheng Family had birthdays, they received whatever their parents gave them, but he was the only one who was different; the birthday gifts he requested were always things that could retain value or be converted into cash.

This zodiac gold medal around his neck weighed about two taels and was worth several tens of thousands at market value.

"I beg you, Big Brother, saving a life is like fighting a fire. This is a virtuous and kind deed. You are a good person, and good people will surely be rewarded..."

Sheng Zihan spoke persuasively, and with the addition of this gold medal, the worker nodded in agreement: "Let's go, get on the boat, I'll take you to find them."

Once on the boat, he realized that this "Big Brother" was no dock worker; he was the boss of another boat.

The boat boss ordered the worker to set sail and pursue the Yiba San, which was the smuggling boat that had taken Wang Qing away.

The first mate whispered in the boat boss's ear: "Boss, although we don't get along with the Yiba San, isn't it bad to undermine them so openly? It won't be easy to deal with things after burning bridges..."

The boat boss laughed: "Who said I wanted to burn bridges? I only promised to pursue them, I didn't promise to help him snatch the person back!" As he spoke, he made a gesture of drawing a knife across his throat.

The first mate suddenly realized: "I understand, Boss, you want to borrow a knife to kill someone?"

"Alright, some things are understood without being said out loud."

Sheng Hanyu was completely unaware of these words.

He sat in the cabin, looking anxiously at the seawater. He was all alone; even if he caught up to that boat, could he rescue Wang Qing with only his own strength?

Unlikely.

Not just unlikely, it was impossible.

He took out his phone to find help, but just as he was about to dial, his hand suddenly felt empty; the phone had been snatched away.

A burly man glared at him and asked: "What are you trying to do?"

"Making a call."

"Calling who?"

"My friends, to have them come and help."

Sheng Zihan reacted quickly and did not say he wanted to call the police.

Although he hadn't said the wrong thing, his lie was still exposed.

The ruffian roared at him with foul language: "You pretty boy, do you think I'm an idiot? Lying in front of me, I think you don't want to live anymore... You can't make any calls. If you don't listen, I'll throw you into the sea!"

After saying this, he confiscated Sheng Zihan's phone.

Sheng Zihan couldn't just let it go like this, but he didn't dare to confront them head-on, so he went to find the boat boss.

"Boss, your subordinate is too overbearing; he took my phone."

The boat boss wasn't surprised at all; he gave a fake smile and said: "Little brother, I know about this. You want to find help, but it's too late. This call cannot be made; it doesn't fit our rules."

"I already broke the rules by letting you on the boat. I only wanted to make friends with you because I saw that you were a sensible little brother and quite generous."

"I'm doing you a favor, so you can't smash my rice bowl. If outsiders enter these waters, I won't be able to make a living here anymore. Your phone will be returned when you get off the boat. Now, go inside and stay put, or you can return to the dock now, either way."

He didn't want to go back, so he had no choice but to go and rescue her all by himself.

"Let me go, where are you taking me? Let me go..."

Wang Qing was tied up tightly and pushed and shoved off the boat.

She looked around in terror, but couldn't see very far; the sky was dark, and she didn't know what time it was.

Everything around her was pitch black, with only the white glimmer of the churning waves.

Where was this?

It felt as if black monsters were all around her, ready to pounce on her at any moment and tear her to pieces!

She was terrified.

With a sobbing voice, she shouted: "Help, Zihan, save me..."

"Help!"

These people didn't gag her, so she could scream as much as she wanted, but even if she screamed until her throat was raw, she would get no response, only evil mockery.

"The little girl has a loud voice, but stop screaming now; you'll have plenty of time to scream later."

"That's right, don't waste your energy. If you're obedient, you'll enjoy endless wealth and glory; if you're not, you won't have a good end."

Wang Qing wouldn't listen to their nonsense; she struggled and screamed with all her might, but it had no effect, and eventually, she was locked in a dark room.

There were no lights on in the room, and she couldn't see anything.

She curled up in the corner, trembling with fear.

It wasn't that she didn't want to escape, and it wasn't that she wasn't afraid; she was terrified, but she had no strength left in her body, not even enough to scream.

She stared with wide eyes, looking at the scene in front of her in terror. As her eyes gradually adjusted to the darkness, the outline of the room slowly became visible.

The room was large, with a table, chairs, and a large round bed...

"Ahhhhh!"

She screamed in terror again.

There was a monster in the room!

Sitting in a wheelchair.

What was that thing?

It looked like a rectangle, about the size of a person, but below the knees, it was completely empty.

The arms were also one long and one short, and the only hand had just a single finger.

The monster was bare-chested, its skin looking like fish scales; it wore a mask on its face so it couldn't be seen clearly, but even just guessing, one could tell there wouldn't be a pleasant face underneath that mask!

"You are very afraid of me, aren't you?"

The monster spoke in human language, and its voice was very pleasant.

Wang Qing squeezed her eyes shut; if she only listened to the voice it would be fine, but she must not let herself see this thing again.

Whatever one fears, that is what comes.

"Snap!"

The light turned on.

The room suddenly became bright, and the light was so piercing that Wang Qing could only squint; her eyes had already adapted to the darkness and could not handle the intense light.

But she adapted after a few seconds.

"Ahhhhhhhh..."

A shrill scream rang out in the room again; with the lights on, that "monster" was right before her eyes, and it could be seen even more clearly.

She wished she were blind at this moment, having never seen such a terrifying monster.

The "monster" began to speak.

"Heh, you are very afraid, aren't you? At first, I was also very afraid of myself, but after getting used to it, it was fine; once you get used to it, you won't be afraid anymore."

"Ahhhhh!"

"Let me out!"

"Help!"

Wang Qing collapsed after hearing just one sentence.

For her to get used to a monster like this, how could that be possible?

She could not get used to it; she would never, ever be able to get used to a monster like this.
