Mr. Liu said this, and Xiao Yi clearly breathed a sigh of relief.

Mr. Liu’s miraculous skills, as long as he says when someone will wake up, it will definitely happen.

Years ago, he famously predicted the exact time when Old Master Bo, who was hanging on by a thread, would wake up and speak, which amazed everyone.

So, Miss Yin was bound to lose.

Thinking of this, Xiao Yi looked sympathetically at Yin Weiyi, Miss Yin, just fend for yourself.

Mr. Liu’s personality is very... abnormal.

...

The night was deep, and the alley became increasingly eerie, with not a single streetlight, only the cold moonlight shining down, making everything seem dark.

Xiao Zhi was carried along all the way without shouting because he knew there was no one around. Even if he shouted his lungs out, no one would come to save him, so he needed to conserve his energy.

The group of people, having gained a lot today, were in high spirits, humming little tunes along the way, almost floating from excitement.

They were about to reach the end, and beyond it was the main road where more people would be around.

So Xiao Zhi remained silent, waiting to shout for help once they reached the road.

But he was disappointed. The group didn’t go to the end but turned into a small side road, leading to another path where few people passed by.

Xiao Zhi’s mind spun, and he pitifully said, "Uncle, I need to use the bathroom."

# A universal escape trick for kidnappings—pretending to go to the toilet #

Someone immediately knocked on his head viciously, saying fiercely, "Hold it!"

Xiao Zhi twisted his body, opening his big eyes wide, "Uncle, I’ll just go here. If I hold it in and get hurt, I won’t be worth much."

After all, they were not particularly evil people. The others thought it over and agreed it made sense. Besides, he was just a child, what could he do? Then someone suggested, "How about I watch him?"

After some discussion, they decided to send someone to follow and let him use the bathroom, but only within their line of sight.

Xiao Zhi slowly walked ahead, while the person behind grew impatient, "Hurry up, stop dawdling."

Xiao Zhi slowly untied his waistband and quietly turned his head to say, "Uncle, can you turn around?"

The person was irritated, "If you’re going to go, go quickly, what’s with all the talking."

Xiao Zhi said softly, "Uncle, you’re such an adult, are you afraid I’ll run? I’m not even five years old."

Provoked by this, the person waved his hand and turned around, "Alright, alright, hurry up." A grown-up couldn’t possibly be outsmarted by a child, right?

Xiao Zhi showed an obedient smile, "Thank you, Uncle."

Seeing the person turn around, Xiao Zhi immediately began to run.

He didn’t expect to actually escape; he just needed to reach the end of the alley, and then someone would hear him if he called for help.

After Xiao Zhi had run a few steps, the person realized something was wrong, immediately turned his head, and saw Xiao Zhi in the distance. He spat and said menacingly, "Playing tricks on me, let’s see if I won’t beat you to death if I catch you!"

After saying this, he chased after him, and the others, hearing the commotion, chased too.

Xiao Zhi ran with all his might; he only needed to run a little farther to reach the main road.

However, just as he was about to get there, with hope in sight.

He was still caught.

The kidnapper approached him, hitting and kicking him, "Run, go on, run. So young and yet so cunning, making fools out of us! Let’s see how I’ll deal with you!"

Punches and slaps rained down on Xiao Zhi like a thunderstorm. Xiao Zhi curled up defensively in pain,

Xiao Zhi wants to protect his sister, Xiao Zhi is not afraid of pain.
