Mutual slaughter

  Darkness, can't see fingers when stretching out hand.

  Xiao Congrong leaned against the wall, using his hand to press against the dirt on the wall, his throat burning with a fiery dryness.

  How many days has it been?

  She counted the marks on the wall with her fingernails, one, two, three, four, five... This was the fifth day, she had been locked in this dark room for five days!

  What do they want? No lights, no water, no food, no sound, no smell, and even no one to patrol!

  Why not just shoot her directly if she's exposed as an undercover agent? Why take the risk of keeping her alive?

  That man... Tang Yitian's name is synonymous with the devil. There is no mercy in his dictionary. How will he deal with her?

  She had thought about this problem a thousand times and had over a thousand answers, but no matter how she thought, she couldn't guess how she would die.

  The fingernail had already cracked open, and the blood had dried up, but fresh blood was oozing out again.

  She didn't dare to sleep, the silence amplified her heartbeat, the darkness deprived her of her vision, she let the pain keep her awake, she was afraid that if she fell asleep, or at any moment she might have hallucinations... or go crazy!

  As time ticked away, just when she didn't know when she would collapse, the door suddenly opened, and a faint light pierced her eyes. Before closing them, she saw someone being pushed in, and then a knife fell to the ground.

  "Only one of you can survive, who it is... is up to you to decide!"

  A cold voice came from the small hole above, and before it had fallen, Xiao Zuo jumped up and rushed over with a knife.

  She had grown accustomed to the darkness, her hearing acute, and in one swoop she grasped the hilt of the knife.

  Before she could even turn around, she was punched in the head, leaving her dazed and disoriented. A metallic taste immediately filled her mouth as blood began to flow. With a swift kick, she sent the person crashing to the ground and pounced on them with a fierce cry.

  "Ah..." The hoarse voice made her pause, the knife deviated and was inserted into the earthen wall, unable to stop its momentum, she fell into his arms.

  "A Zheng, how is it you!" She had only just opened her mouth when she realized that her voice was even hoarser than the man's, and her dry lips cracked open again to reveal blood.

  Xu Zheng is her boyfriend and a police officer. They are working undercover together and have promised to get married once this case is over.

  Tang Yitian thought, was he brought here to let them kill each other?

  She leaned against Xu Zheng's shoulder weakly, still frightened, and if he hadn't called out, she would have almost killed him!

  She had been locked up for too long, this was not something the normally calm her would do. She hugged him and calmed down a bit, saying softly: "Let's put on a show for them."

  They have always been in tune with each other's minds, and he would understand what to do at this time. He let them slaughter each other, but they refused!

  "Oh..." Xu Zheng's response was like a sigh, his hand greedily caressing her face, lips, and then grasping her hand.

  She smiled in the darkness, the darkness was terrifying, but with someone you love it's no longer scary.

  "After I pretend to be stabbed and fall down, they will definitely come in to check, then we'll counterattack..."

  She whispered softly in his ear, the tip of her nose brushing against his ear, and she faintly smelled a light fragrance. Before her brain could react, her hand was suddenly grasped by him, and then she only felt a sharp pain in her lower abdomen, and the knife she was holding had actually been inserted into her own belly.

  "Xu...... zhèng......" She stared with wide eyes, unable to see his face in the darkness, only seeing two faint glows in his eyes, unable to distinguish whether it was fear or tears...

  "Don't blame me, I just want to live..."

  It seemed as if he was afraid she wouldn't die, so he grasped her hand, pulled out his knife and stabbed her again while holding her.

  His cheek was stuck to her face, tears streaming down his face, Xiao Zong felt the coolness slide to his lips, he opened his mouth, unable to say anything, and struggled to pull his hand to caress his slightly bulging belly...

  Her eyes slowly lost focus, a sarcastic smile floated at the corner of her lips... You're still alive... If you knew that what you killed wasn't just me, but also your child, could you still live with yourself?
