Chapter 540 Redemption
Chapter 540 Redemption
Bai Yisha frowned and clicked her tongue softly.
Without pausing, she quickly wiped the blood off with the hem of her other trouser leg, then forgot about the minor pain.
Right now, there are things a hundred times more important than this.
She slipped into the dimly lit room like a shadow.
The door was ajar, and a pungent smell, a mixture of sweat, dirt, and cheap tobacco, hit her, almost suffocating her.
The sight inside the room made her blood freeze instantly.
A burly man, shirtless, stood with his back to her, his pants pulled down to his knees, revealing two thick, tree-trunk-like legs.
Sweat dripped down his broad back, running down his dark skin and thick body hair. The bulging muscles and veins on his arms revealed his beastly strength. In front of him, a girl curled up in the corner of the bed, like a butterfly ravaged by a storm.
Her face was streaked with tears, her beautiful eyes were filled with terror and her pupils were dilated, as if her soul had left her body. Her clothes were nowhere to be seen, and her thin body was covered with shocking purplish bruises and finger marks. The clear five-finger mark on her cheek was red, swollen and shiny.
Bai Yisha's gaze swept over the girl, finally settling on the glaring dark red stain on the bed sheet.
The girl was thin, and fear filled her beautiful eyes.
Judging from her condition, she has already been violated.
Bai Yisha's face was icy cold.
"Run, run again?! You bitch, you dare bite me, I'll... ugh!"
"Bang--!
The burly man's ferocious expression froze instantly. His bloodshot bull-like eyes widened abruptly, his body swayed like a felled tree stump, and he let out an unintelligible groan before falling straight forward, raising a cloud of dust.
A cold, metallic object was reflected in the girl's pupils.
It was a menacing-looking spiked club.
Each sharp spike exudes a chilling murderous aura.
This was something Bai Yisha had earned with two hundred merit points, and it was now firmly held in Bai Yisha's hands.
The stick wasn't even stained with a single drop of blood; it was frighteningly clean and tidy.
Bai Yisha slowly withdrew her spiked club. She stared expressionlessly at the unconscious man on the ground, her chest heaving slightly with intense emotions.
She spat in disgust, but that didn't seem enough to vent her fear and anger. She took a step forward, raised her foot, and kicked that fat waist again.
"asshole!"
She used all her strength in that kick, but the moment it landed, a dull rebound force came from her foot, making her ankle go numb.
This big man, I don't know what he eats on a regular basis, his body is so muscular and solid like an old tree root, that he kicked her so hard it hurt.
Seeing the burly man move, Bai Yisha's alarm bells rang in her mind; she absolutely could not give this beast any chance to turn the tables.
She quickly pulled a small porcelain bottle from her pocket; it was a drug she had obtained from the system by accumulating merit.
She uncorked the bottle, and a strange, sweet fragrance instantly filled the air. Without hesitation, she sprinkled all the white powder in the bottle onto the big man's mouth and nose.
After doing all this, she finally breathed a sigh of relief, shifting her cold gaze from the muddy body to the girl in the corner.
At this moment, the girl was like a frightened young animal, her whole body trembling uncontrollably.
Bai Yisha's heart felt as if it were being tightened by an invisible hand, causing her great pain.
She looked around, her gaze landing on the pile of torn and mangled clothes on the ground.
She walked quickly over, bent down to pick it up, and tried to shake off the dust. After thinking for a moment, she took off her coat, then carefully approached the girl with the coat in her hand.
"Don't come any closer!!!!"
The girl suddenly raised her head and let out a piercing scream, her voice filled with despair and fear.
She flailed her arms wildly, tears streaming down her face.
Snapped!
A hard slap landed on Bai Yisha's face, stinging painfully.
But she seemed oblivious, not even flinching.
She didn't forcefully hold the girl down, but slowed her movements and repeated in the gentlest tone, "Don't be afraid, I'm not a bad person, I'm here to save you."
She gently draped her coat over the girl, then reached out and, without touching her wound, gently stroked her back with her warm palm, as if soothing a ruffled cat.
“It’s all in the past… You were very brave, you’re safe now.” Her voice wasn’t loud, but it had a strange penetrating power, like a ray of warm sunshine trying to shine into the girl’s world shrouded in darkness.
Perhaps it was the coat still warm from her body, or perhaps it was the gentlest comfort, but the girl's fierce struggle gradually subsided, and her uncontrollable trembling slowly calmed down.
She finally raised her tear-filled eyes and looked, bewildered and cautious, at the unfamiliar yet warm embrace before her.
"Sister... Waaaaaaahh ...
The girl suddenly burst into tears and buried herself in Bai Yisha's arms.
The girl looked to be about the same age as Bai Yisha, or perhaps a little younger.
Bai Yisha was at a loss for words to describe her feelings.
Very complicated.
In the village where she grew up, such a thing happened, and she didn't know what to say.
The girl kept crying, but thankfully, she calmed down a lot, though her little hands kept tightly gripping the hem of Bai Yisha's clothes.
Bai Yisha felt uneasy. She looked down at the girl's frightened appearance, picked her up by the waist, glanced at the unconscious man lying on the ground, and stomped hard on his genitals.
The medicines in the system shop are quite potent; even with this kind of stepping, he didn't react.
It's like being dead.
The night breeze was cool, carrying a hint of earthy smell as it brushed against my face.
Bai Yisha held the girl, who was as light as a feather, in her arms, and warily scanned the silent night outside the door.
As she walked, she gently rubbed her chin against the girl's head, speaking in a very soft voice, as if afraid of disturbing the girl's newly calmed emotions.
"What's your name? How old are you?"
"Yu Huanxi, I'm sixteen this year. Sister, can you take me away? I'm so scared, I want to leave... My friend and I just went out to buy ice cream, and we got kidnapped..."
The girl's voice was barely audible, hoarse from the shock of her ordeal and with a barely perceptible tremor, followed by sobs.
Bai Yisha abruptly stopped, as if she had been nailed to the spot.
She subconsciously bit her lower lip, using the pain in her teeth to suppress the sudden surge of rage and desolation that threatened to engulf her.
Sixteen years old.
What a wonderful age! They should be studying in bright classrooms and laughing freely in the sunshine.
