Before the sentence was finished, the elevator suddenly jolted, darkness filled the inside, and Gu Naimei screamed in shock.
Then, there was a strange smell spreading rapidly in the elevator, filling their nostrils. Soon after, both of them lost consciousness, and the world turned pitch black.

"Chi Xingye, wake up, stop sleeping!"
"Wake up now!!"
"Wake up, you sleepyhead, or you're going to be killed!"
"...."
Beside her, there were the urgent and panic-stricken cries of Gu Naimei.
Chi Xingye, who was unconscious, finally woke up slowly.
Her head was dizzy, vision blurred. It took her a while to focus.
The curtains were drawn. The room was dark. She could vaguely make out that it was a hotel room. However, the facilities seemed subpar; everything looked old and worn.
When Chi Xingye tried to move, she found out that she couldn't. Her hands were tied behind her back, her legs were bound together as if someone had casually tossed her onto the floor.
