Chapter 186 I love you
Although Anubis' words were intermittent, they were like a vow engraved on Qiao Suisui's heart, and every word was of great significance. She hugged him back tightly, and in the dim room, their heartbeats intertwined into a melody of life, as if they had found a ray of hope in despair.
A determination flashed in his eyes, knowing that he could not fall here. Anubis put on a loose prison uniform and forced himself to stand up regardless of the pain raging in his body. Qiao Susu held his hand tightly. She could feel the strength in his hand, which was his silent promise to protect her.
They moved to the door silently, Anubis' ears twitching slightly, capturing the sounds outside. The footsteps of the guards echoed in the corridor, and they had to be careful not to let the guards discover their tracks.
Anubis signaled Qiao Suisui to wait. He gently pushed open the door and observed the situation outside. The guards did not seem to notice this corner. They were busy dealing with the bodies of their companions. Anubis seized this opportunity and used Dark Hunting to wrap all the guards in darkness. Then he nodded to Qiao Suisui, and the two began to move quietly along the wall.
Walking through the dim corridor, Anubis took every step carefully. His legs trembled in pain, but his will was firm, and he suppressed his groans of pain with every breath. Qiao Suisui held his hand tightly, so nervous that her palms were sweating.
They came to a fork in the road, and Anubis stopped and listened carefully. The left corridor could be heard talking between guards, while the right corridor was completely silent. Anubis decisively chose the right path.
Just as they turned the corner, a beam of light suddenly swept over. Anubis quickly pulled Qiao Suisui into a dark room next to them, his heart pounding in his chest. The footsteps of the guards were getting closer and closer, and they held their breath, waiting for the danger to pass.
The footsteps of the guards gradually faded away, and Anubis and Qiao Suisui dared to set out again. They quickened their pace, but Anubis's injury slowed his movements. Qiao Suisui looked at the beads of sweat on his forehead, her heart filled with worry, but she knew that now was not the time to stop.
They finally came to an open square, at the end of which was the gate leading to freedom. But in front of the gate was a long staircase. Anubis took a deep breath and began to climb up step by step, even though every step was like stepping on a knife edge.
Qiao Suisui followed closely behind, her heartbeat speeding up with Anubis's pace. They knew that once they reached the top, they would be close to freedom. But just as they were about to reach it, a dazzling beam of light came from the darkness, and Anubis suddenly hugged Qiao Suisui and used his body to block the attack for her.
His left leg was shattered in an instant, and his body lost balance and fell heavily on the stone steps. Qiao Suisui looked back and saw Anubis struggling in pain, but there was no fear in his eyes, only deep worry for Qiao Suisui.
"Go! Go!" His voice sounded so weak, yet so resolute in the empty square. He tried to stand again, but was hit again, and his right leg was also severely injured. Anubis fell on the cold stone steps, and every breath was accompanied by severe pain.
Qiao Suisui's tears were like pearls that had broken off the string. She didn't want to leave, didn't want to give up. Anubis used up his last bit of strength and began to use his arms to drag his body up. His fingers left blood marks on the stone steps.
Qiao Susu supported him as he moved forward, but the two were surrounded by guards who rushed over from all directions. Five or six people came up and pulled them apart, clamped Qiao Susu and made her unable to move.
"Compare"
Qiao Suisui looked back and saw Anubis lying on the ground, being kicked by a bunch of people. She screamed in pain to stop them, but it was of no use.
She wanted to break free, but all the weapons were in Zongfang's space and could not be opened here. If she used her mental power while pregnant, the same situation would happen again. But Qiao Suisui couldn't just watch Anubis get beaten, so she bit the guard's hand with her teeth and tried to break free.
Anubis protected his head with his arms, and looked through the gap in the crowd at Qiao Suisui who was tightly held by the guards. He felt a strong urge in his heart to rescue her from danger. But he knew that he no longer had enough strength to fight, and every move he made seemed to be using up the last energy in his life.
"Hunting in Darkness." He used up his last bit of strength to pull the group of guards who were beating him into the darkness, but he no longer had the strength to fight on.
Anubis endured the severe pain and struggled with his arms to crawl towards Qiao Suisui. He stared straight in the direction of Qiao Suisui, and every step he took left a trace of blood. His arms were shaking and his strength was almost exhausted.
He looked at her deeply, his eyes showing love, pain, and reluctance. He opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say the last words, but only a faint breath escaped.
Qiao Suisui struggled to hug him, but was held tightly by his iron-like hands. She cried and said, "Forget it, Bi, we won't go out anymore."
But Anubis still did not give up. He dragged his body with his arms and moved forward little by little. Qiao Suisui looked at his figure, her heart aching.
"Let her go." His voice seemed to be squeezed out of his throat, and veins on his forehead bulged due to the severe pain.
Qiao Susu cried and screamed, and because she was too sad, she suddenly felt a sharp pain in her abdomen.
She stroked her belly, the amniotic fluid flowed down her thighs, and then she felt a contraction.
Finally, Anubis reached the steps where Qiao Suisui was, his arms trembling and his strength almost exhausted.
The next second, a strange man in the uniform of a senior federal officer appeared and stepped on Anubis's hand with his leather shoes.
Qiao Suisui struggled to push him away, but it was no use crying and shouting. She watched the man kick Anubis away, and the boy's body rolled down the stairs, his chin hitting the steps hard, and the whole person was like a discarded rag.
"Bi!" She covered her chest, almost unable to breathe, crying until she lost her voice. The severe pain in her abdomen came in waves, soaking her back. She curled up on the steps holding her belly, her eyes red from crying.
Everyone thought that Anubis would never wake up again, but after lying motionless for a while, the young man forced himself to get up again, and with his blood-stained hand he climbed up the stairs again, one step at a time.
Then, he began to slowly raise his hand, his fingers trembling, and stretched one by one. Qiao Susui held her breath and looked at his fingers. Every movement seemed to be using up his last bit of strength. When the first finger was put down, Qiao Susui's heart suddenly tightened; when the second finger was put down, her tears welled up again; when the last finger slowly fell, Anubis's hand fell down weakly.
No one present knew what this meant, but Qiao Susu, who was already in tears, knew.
Three fingers represent three words in turn.
I love you.
