Duan Ran was pulled up and walked out of the cabin with unsteady steps.

When he walked onto the deck, he found that it was already dark. There was a vast sea all around him. It was so dark and boundless that he could not see anything.

He was wheeled toward a large three-decker passenger ship, but saw no passengers.

Zhulong led the way, and Zhang Qiuyue and two others escorted Duan Ran to the bow. A man wearing a flowered shirt and holding a cigar was waiting there, with a gold tooth in his mouth.

Zhulong stepped forward alone, and the two spoke in southern dialect. The sea breeze was howling, and Duan Ran vaguely heard the words "100 million ransom" and "they have been notified".

He couldn't help but feel a glimmer of hope in his heart.

At this time, the man with gold teeth walked towards Duan Ran, looked him up and down, then pinched his chin and examined him carefully like an animal.

After a while, he gestured OK with his hand, then with a smile asked the people behind him to give Zhulong a box.

His voice was very hoarse, like a broken bellows:

"Stay and watch the show. Maybe we can slaughter one more pig tonight."

Zhulong smiled politely: "Thank you, Brother Samen"

As they spoke, a group of people escorted Duan Ran into the boat.

The closer he got to the upper floors, the clearer Duan Ran could hear. It was a shrill roar and scream, which sounded extremely terrifying in the empty ship.

Zhang Qiuyue was also frightened, but seeing the fear in Duan Ran's eyes, she smiled smugly instead.

On the second floor, the empty corridor had no flooring, but was made entirely of iron sheets, which creaked when one walked on them.

They soon arrived at a hall. The moment they entered, Duan Ran's whole body froze and even his expression became dull.

Everything was red, and there were bloodstains splattered on the walls and the ground. Some of the blood had even dried up and turned dark brown.

On the left side of the hall was a place that looked like an operating table, and on the right side there was a man who looked like a passenger, huddled in the corner, shaking his head in fear, as if he had been stimulated by something.

The smell of blood in the air made Duan Ran unable to hold back any longer and he began to dry heave. As he had not eaten for many days, all he vomited out was acid water, which caused his stomach to cramp and ache.

At this moment, two men with guns walked in, dragged the male passenger in the corner to the operating table, and used belts to fix his limbs.

Then the seaman, holding a cigar in his mouth, walked over, took a white apron from the wall and put it on.

When Duan Ran saw him holding a scalpel, he turned his eyes away suddenly. Then a pig-killing roar sounded behind him. Just by listening, he could feel the pain of that person...

About a quarter of an hour later, the subordinate behind Zhulong whispered in his ear: "We're here."

Duan Ran's face was pale, and there was a glimmer of light in his eyes, but Zhu Long smiled at him strangely.

Then they put a black hood on him, tore off the window, and pressed him down to speak broken Chinese to the people on the deck below:

"See? Put the money on the ground and leave."

Duan Ran wanted to shout something, but was quickly pulled back.

He heard Zhulong say to him: "Enjoy my belongings."

After that, the footsteps of several people left, only Zhang Qiuyue continued to stay where she was, and said in his ear:

"Duan Ran, it's your turn"

Two people dragged him to the operating table. Duan Ran wanted to struggle and scream, but it was as if all his strength had been drained away and he couldn't even shout.

He was tied there weakly, with his shirt torn off.

A liquid similar to disinfectant was applied to his heart. Duan Ran's tears kept flowing from the corners of his eyes. His voice was choked to the extreme, and he made an almost inaudible sound:

"Husband, save me"

The extreme fear made his ears ring, and he almost didn't hear the noise and gunshots outside. Only after the door was kicked open did he hear Zhang Qiuyue's trembling cry:

"why you?"

Then there were sounds of fighting all around, and soon, Duan Ran felt someone untying him, and he was embraced in a familiar and reassuring embrace.

Chen Yuzhang looked at the unconscious person in his arms with heartache, bloodthirsty murderous intent in his eyes. He carried Duan Ran, walked towards Zhang Qiuyue, and pointed the gun at her.

Zhang Qiuyue's mouth was full of blood and her throat was pierced by a sharp weapon. She couldn't make any sound. She could only kneel on the ground and kowtow, begging for Chen Yuzhang's forgiveness.

At this time, 003 suddenly spoke, his voice trembling a little:

"Host, that's enough. Although she deserves it, there are still police officers. You...don't kill anyone."

Chen Yuzhang looked fiercely at the man in the flowered shirt huddled in the corner and said:

"Yeah, it's too easy for her to just let her die like this."

Then he said to the man: "Do you want to live? I'll give you a chance."

The man stood up slowly, trembling, not even daring to look at the evil spirit in front of him: "I understand, I understand"

As he spoke, he limped over and dragged Zhang Qiuyue towards the operating table like a dead pig.

Zhang Qiuyue's eyeballs bulged out of fear, bloodshot, and she screamed madly, but the only response she got was a cold cut...

Chen Yuzhang carried Duan Ran onto the speedboat next to him. Shen Juan glanced at them and said in an ambiguous tone:

"Why do I feel that your methods are much gentler, and you even notified the police? If I hadn't grown up with you, would I really suspect that you were the Lone Eagle?"

He did not answer Shen Juan's question, but just put the windbreaker on Duan Ran's head to block the sea breeze for him.

The sound of the coast guard ship's horn faded away, and Chen Yuzhang gently applied the medicine on Duan Ran's cheek, as if he was afraid of hurting him.

One day later, when he got out of the car holding Duan Ran and walked into the villa, everyone in the Duan family was stunned, especially Duan Mei, who rushed over crying:

"What happened to Ranran?"

Chen Yuzhang put him on the sofa and said, "It's okay, he's just weak and unconscious."

Duan Mei looked at him with gratitude in her eyes, and then without caring about anything else, she hugged Duan Ran, and all the relatives of the Duan family surrounded her.

Only Duan Jia walked quickly to the door and called Chen Yuzhang: "Professor Chen, aren't you staying here?"

Duan Gang also came over from behind at this time, looked at the crying family, and said to him with red eyes:

"You are the benefactor of our whole family. You can tell us what you want, and the Duan family will definitely do their best to help you."

Chen Yuzhang looked at him seriously: "Don't tell him, I saved him, that's all I ask."

After saying this, he opened the door and walked out, ignoring the shock of the two people behind him.

It was two days later when Duan Ran woke up again. He had nutrient solution in his hand and tears came out before he even opened his eyes.

"Ranran, don't be afraid, mom is by your side"

Duan Mei held his hand distressedly, and the people from the Duan family gathered around him and called his name out of concern.

Duan Ran opened his heavy eyelids as he called out, and looked around, but he didn't see that person.

He sobbed in pain and asked while crying, "Where is he? Why is he not here?"
