45 Chapter 45: Tian-Tian 1

D City is a rural province within a mountainous region. It was a 5 hour long drive from S City and the roads were rocky and undeveloped.

A boy was sitting quietly in a spacious room. There's no window around the room and the only ventilation is a little exhaust fan attached to a wall.

The boy was bruised and battered. His hair disheveled, he has wounds all over his petite young body and his hands and feet were bound by a tight hemp rope.

3 days ago, he was at the school heading towards his classroom when he was suddenly knocked unconscious.

As soon as he wakes up, a drunk middle aged man attacked him.

The man usually comes at night drunk, then he would beat him up, scold him and spit at him. He would laugh so hard, as if punishing him was an entertainment of some sort.

He suddenly heard the metal door slowly opening. He shook in fright at the thought of his abductor coming for him. He closed his eyes then he heard a cute little voice saying..

"What are you doing at my secret base?"

The girl was somewhat 6 to 7 years old. She looked like a local girl, she's wearing a white dress, a pink back pack and an old tattered ragged doll.

The boy didn't answer her but instead his ink black eyes looked at her intently.

The girl then frown at him, seeing that he was all tied up she innocently asked.

"Why are you tied up? Are you a dog?"

"..."

The boy just shook his head. Not hearing any replied from him, the girl got curious.

"Are you mute?"

The boy, struggled to open his mouth. There are dried up blood on the corner of his lips, making him feel stinging pain as he speak.

" Thirsty."

He slowly whispered. The girl then took out an apple juice from her backpack, punched in the straw and she made him take a sip.

"Tasty right?"She asked, then she giggled.

"Want more?"She teased.

'This brat.... What is she up to?'

The boy scoffed. But since he had no choice, he decided to play along with the little girl.

He quietly nodded at the cheeky little girl infront of him.

"Pay me first."

The boy's mouth twitched upon hearing her demand. He endured the stinging pain on his mouth and clearly said.

"What's your name?"

"Im Tian-Tian."

"Tian-Tian, there's a toy inside the backpack over there. It's yours if you can call the police and help me."

The girl looked at the blue backpack tossed on the floor. She hurriedly took it and she found a light brown fluffy teddy bear.

She smelled it, and a scent of sandalwood permeated to her little nose. She throw the old ragged doll away then tightly hugged the stuffed toy.
