At this time and place, Jie, who was pinned on the ground by two men and couldn't move, was suddenly released by the two bewildered men. They looked at each other and then around them, seemingly clueless as to what had just occurred.
One of the men asked, "Where are we, and who are you all?"
The other man was also puzzled, "I don't know, I wanted to ask the same thing?"
Jie was dumbstruck. Just moments ago, he was captive of the two men and feared the worst, but then an absurd scene unfolded.
Meanwhile, Lin Xi, who was under severe attack and couldn't escape, sensed something odd when all his assailants astonishingly froze on the spot, standing there dumbfounded as if they had forgotten their own identities.
Lin Xi quickly grasped what had happened, breathed a sigh of relief, and watched as the once terrified men scuttled away.
Yang Xinran stood still, her unease greater than anyone's. "Lin Xi, what happened to me? I can't remember a thing, how did I end up here?"
