Chapter 1420: The Grand Finale (Part 6)
No one present expected that the question raised by Erhouzi. Wa Zicong and others suddenly remembered, indeed, Xiao Shumei had been missing for so many years. It was said that she was probably kidnapped by the same group of people.
Xiaoqi touched the child’s head and said, "Go see her."
Xiao Shumei is here? Why hadn’t they discovered it? A wave of fear suddenly rose in everyone’s hearts. The rustling sound indicated that Xiaoqi had taken the child somewhere in the corner.
Erhouzi also felt unprecedented unease; it was so dark, he couldn’t see anything. However, he could remember Zhao Mengjin’s expression and also knew Pudding’s cousin’s expression. They missed their mother.
When he touched over with his little finger, he felt a hand that was very cold and without warmth, scaring Erhouzi enough to want to pull his hand back.
"It’s okay, she hasn’t died yet—" Xiaoqi whispered by his ear, "You’re that angel, not here to take her to heaven, but to persuade her to stay in the human world, do you understand?"
Erhouzi steadied his heartbeat, mustered up the courage with his small hand, held that icy hand tightly, and shouted loudly, "Auntie, I’m here!" Just like Dad said, he needed to become Superman! To bring back his cousins’ mother!
No one knew how much time had passed; it was so, so quiet here, quiet enough to be frightening. Anthony’s nose tingled. Zhuang Haoran stopped him from crying, for if anyone cried now, the spread of sorrow would cause everyone’s spirits to collapse. Eventually, even if they didn’t die, everyone would go mad and that would pave their path to ruin. And these were exactly Zhuang Haoxiong’s intentions. They wanted to watch them destroy themselves like mere toys.
However, there was still no sign of life. Erhouzi grabbed the hand and diligently blew warm breath from his little mouth, saying, "My uncle is a doctor, he taught me that if a patient is too cold, you can warm them up to restore their body temperature."
"Your uncle, the fifth one?" Xiaoqi mumbled to himself.
Erhouzi shook his head, "No, it’s another uncle. Although both my uncles are doctors, I know."
Xiaoqi patted his small head, "It’s okay, I can tell you’re like your uncle, very kind-hearted."
Erhouzi blushed, "I’m not as good in studies as my brother."
"You’ll improve in the future, you want to become someone like your uncle, right?"
Maybe he hadn’t thought it before, but at this moment, Erhouzi truly wished he could become Ou Yanan, then maybe he could save his aunt.
Outside the iron door, footsteps could be heard, not sounding like the jailer’s. A few people turned to see a woman feeling her way along the bars. That woman, without holding a light, could hear the noise, so she smiled, "Oh, who is this that came? Let me take a look."
Who is this person? Zhuang Haoran and Anthony were unsure. Wa Zicong’s face flashed a subtle color upon hearing the familiar voice of the woman.
Xiaoqi spat out in a cold voice, saying to the woman, "You can’t see, so what do you need to look at?"
"Mr. Qi, I may not see, but neither can any of you, right? Compared to me who is blind, isn’t it more tragic for you, who have eyes but can’t see?"
"If you came here to mock us, I suggest you wash up and go back to sleep with that jailer."
The woman immediately felt shame and anger, but then she laughed coquettishly, "Honestly, the jailer said Mr. Qi is quite a handsome man, and if Mr. Qi is willing, I could help Mr. Qi build a bridge to leave this hellish place. At least, you wouldn’t be dying like that woman, right?"
