At 3 a.m., the landmines in front of the station

"The equipment... is all there, and there are no signs that it has been activated."

"There's some dust on it; it must be because it wasn't cleaned or tidied up this week."

"The pick box and cable that I left here last time haven't been moved... and the last orange is rotten, nobody eats it."

"..."

The kittens reported the situation one by one at the front line, and the women listened with increasing alarm and tension.

UU said impatiently, "Let's go upstairs and take a look. There's no lock on the first floor, so we can pass by the greenhouse and see if the flowers are dead or not."

"it is good……"

Miya hesitated, as if she wanted to say something but then stopped.

She actually knew that many of the flowers in the greenhouse were fake... so there was no question of whether they were dead or alive.

But since everyone wants to see it, I have to set out to satisfy their curiosity.

It must be said that in this operation, the little cat dared to roam the enemy's territory in the dark, which shows considerable courage.

Following the route she remembered, she stealthily made her way to the stairwell area, preparing to step into the greenhouse on the left side of the first floor—

Unfortunately,

at this time,

Familiar footsteps came from above.

……

Chapter 242 Fiancée

"You who own a cat! How...how did you get so thin? You look like you've gained at least ten pounds...!"

In the video, the kitten cries out in surprise.

Because the person who stopped on the platform was not Ari, but the "hostage" that they had been searching for—Su Che.

At this moment, Su Che's eyes were lifeless, and he was not wearing the clothes he had worn when he left home.

Instead, he was clearly dressed in a newly purchased men's suit by someone else.

Although the suit was a casual style, it didn't fit as well as I had imagined, and it gave me a feeling of being constricted, just like Su Che's brain at this moment.

His facial expression was stiff, and his skin was deathly pale—not the kind of paleness from malnutrition, but a kind of malnutrition in a different sense…

Her chapped lips parted and moved: "Mi...Miya...you've come to find me."

"Yes, yes! Of course! Everyone is worried about you! You... look terrible! Come with me and leave here...!"

The kitten lunged forward and grabbed his wrist.

But after grabbing him, I suddenly realized that there were rather rough marks on his wrist.

"!"

She couldn't help but prick up her cat ears, asking warily, "Were you abused?"

"……No."

Su Che shook his head blankly, like a heartless person who had sold his soul to the devil, his steps were unsteady and his voice was very soft.

"Oh no! Who turned our A-Che into this?! This won't do...!"

Over the phone, Yuan Xiao was the first to notice something was wrong and told her sister that the situation was a bit critical.

Gu Zhi nodded, indicating that his symptoms indeed required the combined efforts of all the women to provide emergency treatment, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable.

"No matter what, let's take it home first."

The women reached a consensus, and Miya followed the instructions.

Since Su Che came without bringing anything, he had no luggage and only needed to follow the kitten to leave the place to escape the crisis.

His mind is currently blank, and he doesn't even dare to think about how he spent the past seven days. He only hopes that after he gets out, he can find a quiet place to lie down, burrow into the soil, do nothing, and just empty his mind.

How could Miya know that his PTSD had reached such a level? She continued to talk to him proactively halfway through, trying to awaken his original consciousness.

Su Che's only instinct was to move, and as for the questions, he only answered selectively, missing a lot of key information.

"Hey cat owner, have you eaten?"

"have eaten."

What did you eat?

"Some liquid food."

"...?"

Miya took his hand, turned around and looked at him, frowning deeply: "Is this why you've lost so much weight?"

"No."

"Is that...caused by exercise?"

"Strenuous exercise".

"..."

The kitten felt a chill run down its spine.

After all, she had taken a physiology course and knew what he might face if he were captured by Ari.

Books say that the closer a woman gets to 30, the greater her desires become.

Furthermore, some argue that the more aloof and cold a woman appears, the more likely her true self, once her facade is peeled back, will be the opposite of how she is perceived by outsiders.

[Ari-nee has always been a pure, unapproachable goddess, but now that a cat owner has fallen into her territory, expecting to escape unscathed is probably just wishful thinking.]

Thinking of this, the kitten continued to ask:

"Did she...did she release you voluntarily?"

"……Um."

A hint of fear flashed across Su Che's face, but he quickly concealed it.

Miya couldn't see clearly in the dim light, but that didn't affect her next question—

"Has she been with you the entire past seven days?"

"……Um."

Su Che nodded; there was nothing to hide.

"What did you do...?"

"..."

Su Che fell into deep thought.

What did you do?

This is a difficult question to answer.

In particular, giving the wrong answer when everyone's attention is on you could cause your cats at home to suffer the same shock.

Despite his chaotic thoughts, Su Che managed to retain a sliver of clarity and whispered in response:

“I promised her I would be her model, but I stood her up before. She was very unhappy, so now I’m making it up to her by becoming her model for a week.”

"!!!"

Upon hearing this, the women couldn't help but start whispering among themselves!

UU: "Is that so?"

Yuan Xiao: "Are you going to be a model?"

An Qing: "Yari is an artist, and artists need models as subjects for their depictions of the human body. But I don't think Cheche just went there to be a model. You can tell from his demeanor..."

Gu Zhi: "Hehe. Referring to the C-circle, I think we can directly apply what happens to some photographers after shooting the models to the current scene."

Xiao Xiao: "You mean...! Miss Ari is a erotic artist!?"

Gu Zhi: "Otherwise what? If you were in Che's shoes and successfully found him to be your subject of research for a week, would you do nothing?"

Xiao Xiao: "!?"

Empathy is often a powerful tool in logical thinking.

It's no secret that Xiao Xiao writes things; a little thought is enough to draw the conclusion that the core player in his team has been completely exploited, and his malnourished state is the evidence.

"Get in the car first."

-

When Miya brought Su Che back to the iron fence in the backyard, the little cat was wondering how to get him to climb over the wall and go out. Unexpectedly, he pulled a key out of his pocket.

"This is……?"

"Given by Miss Ari."

Su Che stiffly inserted the key into the lock of the steel ring lock, and muttered as he turned it, "It can open all the doors in her house."

"..."

The women were shocked upon hearing this.

Sure enough, not only was the steel lock opened, but Su Che's facial information had also been entered into the smart lock at some point, allowing him to enter and exit simply by scanning his face.

With a click, the two left the greenhouse almost without any hindrance.

"Cheche!"

Upon seeing him freed from captivity, the women swarmed around him, immediately reaching out to rub, pinch, and touch his body to check for any hidden injuries.

If he has been treated inhumanely, then we should consider formally attacking this place and demanding an explanation from Miss Ari.

To everyone's surprise, Su Che kept shaking his head, indicating that he was fine.

This feeling, as if their souls had been sucked away, made the cats feel even more uncomfortable.
