Me? I was transported into a book? And I became a vicious villain?

The iron door made a dull roar, echoing in the silent laboratory. Chu Mengmeng and Xiao Yichen flashed out, and before they had time to observe the surrounding environment, a piercing alarm suddenly sounded, and the red warning light flashed wildly, making the already dark corridor even more eerie.

"Oh no, we've fallen into a trap!" Xiao Yichen cursed in a low voice, pulled Chu Mengmeng up and ran away.

The doors of the rooms on both sides of the corridor suddenly opened, and a group of men in black armed with weapons rushed out like a tide and surrounded them. Xiao Yichen protected Chu Mengmeng behind him and calmly observed the surroundings, looking for a way to break out.

"Don't waste your energy, Xiao Yichen. You can't escape today!" A cold voice came from the back of the crowd. A tall man walked out slowly with a cruel smile on his face. "Just surrender obediently, and maybe I can spare your life."

"Who are you? Why are you arresting us?" Chu Mengmeng couldn't help but ask.

The man sneered, "You don't need to know who I am. You just need to know that your lives are in my hands now." As he spoke, he snapped his fingers, and two men in black immediately walked up to him, escorting the two children.

"Xiaoxiao! Yaoyao!" Chu Mengmeng exclaimed. These two children were Xiao Yichen's twins.

"Dad! Mom!" When the two children saw their parents, they turned pale with fright and struggled desperately to run to them.

"Let go of my child!" Xiao Yichen's eyes were bloodshot, his fists were clenched, and his knuckles turned white from excessive force.

"If you want them to live, hand over the things!" The man pointed at the piece of paper tightly held in Xiao Yichen's hand, "Otherwise, I will let them go down to be buried with him!"

Xiao Yichen and Chu Mengmeng looked at each other, and saw despair and anger in each other's eyes. They knew that they were in a dilemma.

"Give me the things." Chu Mengmeng took a deep breath and said to Xiao Yichen in a low voice, "The child must not be in any danger."

Xiao Yichen held the note tightly, hesitated for a moment, and finally slowly let go of his hand...

The man snatched the note, glanced at it greedily, and then laughed out loud, his laughter full of pride and ridicule. "Xiao Yichen, you have come to this day! Do you think you can bring me down just by getting this list? You are too naive!"

Xiao Yichen suppressed his anger and stared at the man coldly, "Who are you? Why do you want to kill me?"

The man's smile faded, his eyes turned sinister and vicious, "Want to know who I am? Go to hell and ask the King of Hell!" After that, he suddenly threw the note into the air, and a sharp dagger was pressed against Xiao Xiao's tender neck, "Kneel down if you want to live!"

"No!" Chu Mengmeng and Xiao Yichen cried out at the same time, but they were powerless to do anything.

At this critical moment, the door of the laboratory was suddenly knocked open by a powerful force, and a figure covered in blood stumbled in.

"Dad!" Xiao Yichen recognized that it was his father at a glance and rushed forward to support him.

Father Xiao leaned weakly in Xiao Yichen's arms. His breath was weak, but he still used his last bit of strength to grab his hand and said in a broken voice: "Yichen...be careful...they...they..."

Before he finished speaking, Father Xiao's head tilted and he completely lost consciousness.

"Dad! Dad!" Xiao Yichen was heartbroken. He hugged his father's cold body and roared to the sky.

"Old thing, you dare to ruin my good deeds even when you are about to die!" Seeing this, the man not only did not stop, but became even more arrogant, and the dagger cut a bloody mark on Xiao Xiao's neck.

“Stop!” Chu Mengmeng’s eyes were bloodshot and her heart was broken.

At this moment, Li Yunfei's desperate voice suddenly came from the laboratory communicator: "Yi Chen, I'm sorry... I was deceived... They... They..."

There was a busy tone on the communicator, apparently the call was cut off.

The man sneered, removed the dagger from Xiao Xiao's neck, and slowly walked towards Chu Mengmeng, with a chilling light flashing in his eyes, "Now, it's your turn..."

The man approached step by step. Chu Mengmeng protected the two children behind her and looked determined: "What do you want?"

"What do I want?" The man sneered, as if he had heard some big joke. "You killed so many of my brothers, and you still ask me what I want? Of course, blood debt must be paid with blood!"

"We didn't kill those people!" Xiao Yichen said in a deep voice, his eyes swept sharply over the men in black behind the man, "Someone is trying to sow discord behind the scenes and kill people with someone else's knife!"

The man obviously didn't believe him and snorted coldly: "Stop using sweet words here! None of you will leave here alive today!"

"Really?" Chu Mengmeng suddenly took a step forward, a strange smile on her lips, "Do you really understand the people behind you? Are you sure they are helping you, not using you?"

The man was stunned, as if he was touched by Chu Mengmeng's words. He hesitated for a moment and asked, "What do you mean?"

Chu Mengmeng did not answer directly, but took out a photo from her pocket and threw it in front of the man. The man picked up the photo in confusion, and when he saw the person in the photo clearly, his face suddenly changed.

"You...how do you have this photo?" The man's voice trembled and his eyes were full of fear.

"It seems that you know him." Chu Mengmeng said lightly, "I advise you to find out who he is and why he ordered you to deal with us!"

The man looked at the photo, his face changing from gloomy to bright. Of course he knew the person in the photo, it was the mysterious man who had been secretly supporting him and providing him with various resources. He was once grateful to this mysterious man and thought that he was his benefactor. But now, Chu Mengmeng's words were like a seed, planting the seeds of doubt in his heart.

"Who are you?" The man stared at Chu Mengmeng warily, with a hint of panic in his tone.

"You should ask the person behind you about this question." After Chu Mengmeng finished speaking, she ignored the man, pulled Xiao Yichen and the children and turned to leave.

Seeing this, the man subconsciously wanted to stop it, but was frightened by Xiao Yichen's eyes and dared not move. He looked at the backs of Chu Mengmeng and others leaving, and his heart was full of doubts and uneasiness.

Chu Mengmeng and the others ran all the way and finally escaped into an abandoned factory. The factory was dark, full of abandoned machines and debris, and the air was filled with a smell of decay.

"What should we do now?" Xiao Yichen asked, his tone full of anxiety.

"Let's find a place to hide first." Chu Mengmeng said, looking around. "It's not safe here. They will catch up with us soon."

Just as he finished speaking, the factory gate was suddenly kicked open and a group of men in black rushed in with weapons.

"Find them!" The leading man gave an order, and the men in black immediately dispersed and began to search the factory.

Chu Mengmeng and the others hid behind a pile of abandoned iron barrels, not daring to breathe. They knew that if they were discovered, they would be dead.

The footsteps of the man in black were getting closer and closer, and Chu Mengmeng's heart was in her throat. At this moment, she suddenly felt someone patting her shoulder from behind.

Chu Mengmeng turned around suddenly, but found that there was no one behind her. Just when she thought she was hallucinating, a cold voice suddenly sounded in her ears: "Don't move, follow me..."

Before Chu Mengmeng could react, she was pulled into the darkness by a powerful force...

At the same time, the twins, who were imprisoned in another room, were experiencing inhuman torture...

In the dim and damp basement, Xiao Xiao and Xiao Yao were thrown roughly to the ground, and their delicate skin was scratched with blood by the cold concrete floor.

"Brother, I'm scared." Xiao Yao held Xiao Xiao's hand tightly, and her little body trembled uncontrollably.

Xiao Xiaoqiang endured the pain in his body, held his sister in his arms, and whispered to comfort her: "Don't be afraid, Yaoyao, mom and dad will definitely come to save us."

Even though he was just a child, at this moment, he had to be a support for his sister.

"Humph, you expect them to come and rescue you? Dream on!" A rough voice echoed in the empty basement, "If you know what's good for you, just obey. Otherwise..."

The man waved the whip in his hand and stared at the two children fiercely, his eyes full of threats.

Xiao Xiao and Xiao Yao hugged each other tightly, their eyes full of fear, but they never cried or begged for mercy.

"You're quite courageous!" The man sneered and raised the whip to hit Xiao Xiao.

"stop!"

At this moment, the door of the basement was suddenly pushed open, and a tall figure appeared at the door. Against the light, it was impossible to see who the person was.

The man was startled by this sudden change, and the whip in his hand stopped in mid-air.

"Who are you? Do you want to meddle in other people's business?" the man asked warily, with a hint of panic in his tone.

The visitor ignored the man's question, but walked straight to Xiao Xiao and Xiao Yao and gently helped them up.

"Are you okay?" the person asked with concern, his voice gentle and familiar.

"Dad!" Xiao Xiao and Xiao Yao shouted in surprise and threw themselves into the man's arms.

The man who came was Xiao Yichen's father. He hugged the two children tightly in his arms, his eyes full of heartache and anger.

At the same time, on the other side of the abandoned factory, Chu Mengmeng and Xiao Yichen were groping forward in the dark.

"There seems to be something here." Chu Mengmeng found that there seemed to be some strange patterns carved on the wall with the faint light.

Xiao Yichen walked forward and carefully identified the patterns on the wall, his expression gradually becoming solemn.

"These patterns... seem to be a prophecy." Xiao Yichen said in a deep voice, "The prophecy says that the town will face a catastrophe, and we..."

Xiao Yichen didn't say anything else, but Chu Mengmeng had already guessed what he meant.

"Are we the key to this catastrophe?" Chu Mengmeng asked, with a hint of uneasiness in her tone.

Xiao Yichen nodded, pointed at the last pattern on the wall and said, "Look, this is..."

In the pattern, a man and a woman are facing each other and walking in opposite directions, and under their feet is a blazing sea of ​​fire...

"We must find the children as soon as possible and leave here!" Xiao Yichen made a prompt decision, pulled Chu Mengmeng and ran forward.

However, what they didn't know was that behind them, a stone door hidden in the darkness was slowly opening...
