Chapter 137 — First Release on Jinjiang Literature City

Bai Li was sent over drugged, everyone knew that.

So when Bai Li said his head hurt badly, they didn’t doubt him. Seeing Bai Li moving more and more, they exchanged looks, silently asking each other with their eyes.

“Is this little boy having a bad reaction to the drug?”

“I don’t know, but it doesn’t look good.”

“Should we find someone?”

“Find someone, if we don’t and something goes wrong, we won’t be responsible.”

The people guarding Bai Li knew his importance and didn’t dare slack off.

“It hurts.”

Bai Li struggled against the ropes, his face pale, pleading to the people watching him, “Can you untie my ropes? I won’t run. I just want to rub my head.”

Bai Li had a pure and harmless face, and his build didn’t look strong either. With his soft and weak plea, the men watching him really didn’t fear him much.

“My head hurts,” Bai Li repeated weakly, his voice growing weaker.

The dark-skinned man saw how much pain he was in, frowned, and bent down to untie his ropes.

He was afraid if they tortured the precious little kid too much, something serious might happen.

After the ropes were untied, Bai Li’s wrists and ankles were all rubbed raw.

“Tsk, such delicate skin,” the man clicked his tongue, commenting as he looked at Bai Li’s exposed wrists.

Bai Li didn’t respond. He endured the pain, moving his wrists and ankles.

“I’m telling you, don’t even think about escaping. Do you know where we are? We’re entering the mountains, and from now on, we’ll be walking mountain paths.”

Everyone in their group had shady identities; if they traveled openly by plane or such, it would be like looking for death.

The mountain path twisted and turned—this route was a secret passage even the police didn’t know about.

Bai Li was led by the man to look outside.

He didn’t know how they got there, but outside was truly a deep, old forest.

The old forest had many tall trees, and the man beside him even tried to scare him: “It’s scary here, there are big snakes and all kinds of wild beasts that eat people.”Bai Li glanced at him and asked, "Aren’t you afraid?"

The man laughed loudly: "What would I be afraid of? I even dare to kill people. These beasts only have to be afraid of me when they’re in front of me."

Bai Li felt uneasy about this environment.

He was terrible with directions. If he tried to run, in such a deep mountain forest, he probably wouldn’t be able to escape at all.

Although Bai Li had many thoughts in his mind, his face didn’t show any of it.

He continued to pretend to be weak, leaning against the vehicle cabin, rubbing his head.

The man who untied his ropes watched him for a long time but ultimately didn’t tie him back up.

“How’s the person?”

The person who went out earlier returned with someone who knew how to treat illness: "Let Old Dan take a look."

Old Dan was a white man in his forties or fifties, with a foreigner’s appearance, deeply set features, but not handsome. The lines on his face were deep, giving him a fierce look.

He spoke Chinese fluently.

“This is our prey this time?” Old Dan’s eyes lingered on Bai Li’s face, and his gaze was openly lecherous.

“Old Dan, you only need to treat him,” the leader who brought him over warned, patting Old Dan’s shoulder and lowering his voice: “You cannot touch this kid.”

They were all in the same line of work. The leader knew what kind of man Old Dan was.

He was extremely lustful. Because of this, he had ruined several kids of some status and was sentenced to death. However, his crooked skills were impressive—he escaped to a gray area outside any jurisdiction, avoiding death.

Old Dan swallowed, and a smile appeared on his deeply lined face.

“Don’t worry, I’ll behave.”

He said he’d behave, but the leader, still uneasy, chose to watch him closely.

“Little one, tell uncle, where does it hurt? Is it your head?”

Old Dan asked as he reached out to touch Bai Li’s face.

“Get away! Don’t touch me!”

Bai Li could see the lechery in his eyes, so he resisted fiercely.

Old Dan became even more interested when he saw Bai Li resisting.

One of his hobbies was watching these tender kids struggle desperately; the more they struggled, the more interested he became.

Seeing Bai Li almost banging his head against the vehicle cabin, the leader, fearing Bai Li would be hurt badly, hurriedly pulled Old Dan aside.

“Enough.”

The leader shouted sternly, “Old Dan, if you don’t behave again, do you believe I’ll kill you right now?!”The leader’s words were never said lightly.

Old Dan looked at him, unwilling, and stepped back.

Bai Li didn’t allow Old Dan to get close to examine him. The leader looked him over for a while, then said, “Since you don’t want a doctor, then just hold on for me.”

Bai Li curled up into a ball, gritting his teeth, saying nothing.

Night fell.

They moved quickly, and Bai Li had no idea where they were. All he knew was that the distance between him and Master was definitely getting farther, bit by bit.

“Master.”

The little kitten who missed Master buried his head in his knees, his beautiful amber eyes moist.

By the late night, everyone in the vehicle was asleep.

The only one watching Bai Li was the dark-skinned man named A Ben, who still looked tired.

“A Ben.”

A rustling sound suddenly rang out in the night—Old Dan appeared at the vehicle door.

“It’s so late. I’ll watch him for you. You go to sleep.”

A Ben wasn’t stupid; he knew what Old Dan meant.

“No need.”

A Ben refused, “I’ll watch him, you go back.”

“A Ben.” Old Dan smiled and came closer, “Don’t worry. I promise you, nothing will happen. At the very least, I’ll keep him well, and he won’t dare say a word.”

A Ben rolled his eyes at him, “You think I can —”

Before he could finish, Old Dan suddenly covered A Ben’s nose and mouth with a damp handkerchief. The handkerchief had a special smell, and in less than a minute, A Ben closed his eyes.

Old Dan’s methods were clear—he had survived being hunted by several heavyweight big shots unharmed.

To be able to sleep with a tender, desirable kid, he was crazy and irrational, like a beast in human skin.

Bai Li was watched so closely, he didn’t even get a chance to turn into a cat.

The kitten was small, the cabin was sealed. If he changed shape in front of people, the consequences would only be worse.

After being watched so intently, Bai Li dozed off drowsily.

When he opened his eyes again, he was being carried outside.

The forest was not short of secret places.

Bai Li’s mouth was taped shut, and the ropes that had just been untied were tied again around his wrists.“Mmm, mmm mmm?”

Bai Li smelled the scent on this person—he was that disgusting Old Dan. He tried to struggle and speak, but all he could make were muffled sounds because of the ropes.

“Are you wondering why I brought you out in the middle of the night? What do you think I want to do?” Old Dan leered and answered himself, “Of course, I want to do it.”

Old Dan’s filthy words came one after another.

Soon,

Behind a cluster of trees, Old Dan stopped.

He spread the large coat he had brought on the ground and threw Bai Li onto it.

“Your skin is really tender.”

Old Dan’s eyes showed obsession. He took off his T-shirt, revealing a muscular chest marked with several stab wounds. After removing his own shirt, Old Dan leaned toward Bai Li, ready to enjoy his “midnight snack.”

Bai Li’s eyes widened; he kicked back with his heel and moved backward.

No one else was around, just the two of them.

Bai Li endured his fear, about to transform into a cat, when suddenly—

A small knife was thrown unexpectedly onto Old Dan’s back. The knife was thrown fiercely and accurately, stabbing several centimeters into Old Dan’s flesh.

Old Dan felt the pain and abruptly turned around to see who was attacking from behind.

More people had arrived.

Bai Li, wanting to turn into a cat, forced himself to hold back.

The person who stabbed Old Dan hid in the darkness, unwilling to show themselves.

Old Dan was frantic but cautious; he didn’t try to fight back but planned to send Bai Li back first.

But it was too late.

The danger lurking in the darkness wouldn’t let him go.

The forest was dim, lit only by moonlight faintly illuminating the ground.

Someone grabbed Old Dan’s neck from behind; his face turned red, but he didn’t panic.

Sounds of fighting broke out, mixing together.

Bai Li took advantage of the chaos and rolled into the shadows, transforming back into a cat.

As a small cat, he could easily free himself from the ropes.

Now free, he instinctively wanted to run—but then he thought of the person coming to rescue him.

The person coming to save him was still fighting Old Dan.

“Meow!!!”Bai Li turned his head and just caught a clear look at the face of the person who saved him.

It was Jin Jin.

Jin Jin’s moves were fierce, but Old Dan’s hands were stained with countless lives—he was not some soft target.

During the fight, Bai Li clearly saw blood at the corner of Jin Jin’s mouth.

Not only at the corner of his mouth…

Old Dan had stabbed Jin Jin’s thigh with a reverse stab.

“Meow!!!”

The little kitten who wanted to run suddenly leapt forward without hesitation.

Since his cat song went viral, his power over the dark mist had grown stronger. Now, even without activating the demon core, he fought fiercely.

Sharp claws scratched hard at Old Dan’s face.

Old Dan got scratched in one eye and immediately screamed in agony.

Jin Jin feared his scream would attract attention, so without hesitation, he plunged the bloodied knife into Old Dan’s heart and at the same time clamped his mouth tightly.

Soon, Old Dan could no longer make a sound, but he still had one last breath.

Jin Jin squeezed his neck, his gaze cold and terrifying.

“You shouldn’t have repeatedly crossed my boundaries.”

Jin Jin pressed the knife against Old Dan’s lower body, and his words made Old Dan tremble with fear: “I heard you even tried to make a move on my sister?”

At that moment, Old Dan finally understood what fear truly was.

The youth gripping the knife whispered softly, but his eyes were devilishly piercing.

“Don’t you know? I hate it most when someone covets my sister.”

As the words fell, blood gushed from Old Dan’s lower body.

Bai Li almost got blood splattered on his fur.

He used cat hypnosis, meowing urgently at Jin Jin, no longer caring about covering his little vest.

“Meow!”

You’re bleeding.

Jin Jin didn’t argue and used him to exchange for the second sister. Bai Li was very angry, but now was not the time to get mad and seek revenge.

Jin Jin was injured in the thigh; in a forest like this, he feared they wouldn’t be able to run well.

Hearing the meows by his ear, Jin Jin was stunned: “Li Li?”“Meow, meow-ow!”

It’s me! We need to run quickly!

Dawn would break soon, and in a life-or-death moment, Bai Li anxiously thought, too much talking gets you killed easily.
