Madame is Pretending to be an Academic Slacker Again!

Qin Xin’s eyebrows slightly furrowed: ”Push the crusher over.”

An engineer, panting heavily, pushed a crusher all the way here. Qin Xin swiftly operated the controls on the panel, and the dormant crusher roared back to life, its gears viciously grinding towards the iron box.

In an instant, a gigantic opening was torn open.

The engineers now understood why Qin Xin had wanted them to push such a heavyweight machine all the way here.

It turned out the Chairman had already foreseen that there would be places where conventional tools wouldn’t work, and it was best to fight poison with poison.

Handsome, smart, and brilliant, the Chairman truly left no room for anyone.

With the iron box cracked open, under the crusher’s faint light, everyone could finally see the situation inside the box.

What they saw as an iron box from the outside was actually a room, a dungeon, for the person inside.

An iron cable hung down from the ceiling, suspending a young man upside down.

Due to his head being down for an extended period, his face was severely congested, and his features were swollen.

His hands almost touched the ground, especially around the wrists, a horrifying sight of visible flesh and bone separation.

Even in such dire straits, when the man sensed someone coming in, he spat indistinctly: ”Don’t waste your time with me, if you want to know Queen’s whereabouts, you’ll have to step over my dead body...”

The voice was weak but extremely resolute!

The engineers heard this with sighs; they instantly realized this person must have been kidnapped here, having undergone extremely severe torture.

Qin Xin recognized Hu Yi’s voice, and her heart suddenly tightened.

Her gaze fell on Hu Yi’s broken wrist, deepening her look. She removed the crusher’s gear, stepped forward, and swung the gear like a knife, directly slicing through the iron cable.

The engineers hurriedly rushed forward to catch Hu Yi altogether.

No need to ask, they knew this was the person the Chairman came to rescue.

”Step over my dead body, if you’re going to do it then hurry up, cowards...” Hu Yi’s eyelids were so swollen they couldn’t open, believing they were the interrogators again, so he kept provoking them, seeking death.

Because he feared saying things in his dream talk if he lost consciousness or fell asleep, more afraid of being hypnotized into revealing secrets.

But, the next second.

A familiar, pleasing voice reached his ears: ”It’s me, I’m here, Hu Xiao Yi.”

Hu Yi’s pudgy face stiffened momentarily.

”Damn, Sister Xin, am I having my final illumination? How am I in a dungeon hearing your voice? Have I gone crazy missing you?”

Qin Xin’s heart ached.

She gently held his already numb wrist: ”Hu Xiao Yi, just lay still, I’ll take you out.”

It was really Sister Xin.

Not a hallucination, not final illumination, Sister Xin had come personally to rescue him, boohoo!

In an instant, Hu Yi transformed from a defiant little warrior to a pitiful little coward: ”Sister Xin, they’re fierce here, boohoo, it’s so dark I’m scared, boohoo...”

Had his wrist not broken, he definitely would have hugged Qin Xin’s arm, wiping tears and snot on her sleeve.

But then he considered the place still highly dangerous, the kidnappers could return at any moment, and he nervously said: ”No, Sister Xin, you must leave quickly, don’t worry about me, you must leave now, they’ll catch you, you absolutely can’t reveal your identity...”

Seeing Hu Yi switch modes a dozen times in a second, the engineers were also left in awe, amazed.
