In a dimly lit room, a stench permeated the air, possibly mixed with the smells of urine and feces, along with a humid and suffocating atmosphere.
Ouyang Yue had never in her life smelled such an unbearable odor; she was now extremely frightened, scared, and helpless.
In this roughly nine-square-meter, rectangular room, she stared at the small iron window, silently praying.
Even she found it strange that she was thinking of that solitary and proud figure coming to rescue her.
"Will he come?"
Thud, thud, thud, the sound of hurried footsteps echoed, evidently from someone rushing over.
Ouyang Yue stood up abruptly, eagerly looking at the long shadow in the corridor, hoping it was that familiar yet unfamiliar figure!
"It's not him!" Ouyang Yue despaired.
The person ahead was just an ordinary soldier.
Bang, the sound of chains being unlocked.
"Ah! What do you want to do?" The girl beside Ouyang Yue screamed in fright.
