It seems that the villain is targeting me.

While thinking, she had already slowly walked towards the chair placed in the middle of the factory under the instructions of the bird.

What surprised the porter was that although Xiao Niao's body movements were a bit clumsy overall, he didn't reveal any particularly obvious flaws to her.

From beginning to end, the thing that looked like a gun barrel never left her head.

Okay, the porter decided, I'm going to turn around and kill the other guy before I sit down.

However, when she was less than two meters away from the chair, she suddenly felt a chill on her shoulder blade, and a cold needle easily penetrated her coat and shirt and pierced into her trapezius muscle.

The porter only had time to glance at the person behind him pushing the medicine, and then he felt a tingling and weak feeling spreading down his left shoulder.

In just a few seconds, I lost all feeling from my arms to my heels.

It's an anesthetic!

By the time she realized this, her body had already collapsed limply.

However, the person behind her didn't let her fall to the ground. Instead, he reached out and held her tightly under her armpits.

Careless, she leaned against the bird in embarrassment, her teeth clenched tightly under the mask.

On the other side, Xiao Niao carefully put away the syringe in his hand.

The porter was very tall and the man was quite heavy to carry, but fortunately the chair was not far away.

Xiao Niao hugged the paralyzed person and dragged him towards the chair.

Perhaps because her arm muscles were not strong enough, she had a hard time dragging the person and it took her some effort to finally move him to the chair.

By now the anesthetic had already gone through two cycles in her blood. She leaned against the back of the chair in a daze, watching Xiao Niao pull out a roll of leather rope from his backpack and tie her up and down until she became one with the chair.

The porter was so angry that he wanted to kick the man, but due to his physical limitations, he could only

He lifted his knees weakly.

"Oh, sorry," Xiao Niao's voice came from behind, "This is my first time tying someone up, so I'm not very good at it. Please bear with me."

She...she didn't know what to say for a moment.

The feeling of being unable to move her body at all made her extremely anxious, but now was obviously not the time to resist. Even her vision was blurred, and she could only let the bird manipulate her like a soft doll.

I vaguely seemed to see something fall to the ground, and there was a clicking sound in my ears.

After looking for a long time with sleepy eyes, she finally saw clearly that what fell on the ground was a toy model gun.

The handle is even fucking pink.

A few curse words ran through the porter's mind.

Xiao Niao didn't even notice that the toy gun had fallen to the ground - or maybe he noticed it but was too lazy to bend down to pick it up.

The man sat down on the empty wooden box next to him, his collar soaked with sweat.

The porter noticed that the man had no intention of covering his face, as if he didn't care at all about being seen by him.

Are you planning to silence me? She wondered vaguely.

Xiao Niao was oblivious to the complex inner thoughts of her kidnapped target. She ripped open her collar to let in some air and complained to herself, "Wow, I'm so exhausted! I didn't expect kidnapping to be so hard..."

The porter pointed her chin at her chest and thought weakly that when she regained her strength, she would tie up this lousy kidnapper and hang him from the beam.

After about ten minutes, the effect of the anesthetic began to wear off. The porter raised his heavy head with difficulty and said weakly, "You..."

There was still some confusion in front of her eyes, and she blinked, trying to eliminate the uncomfortable double vision.

Xiao Niao dragged the chair to the front of the chair and raised his hand to wave in front of her.

The person opposite seemed to open his mouth and say something, but the porter didn't hear it clearly. At this moment, she saw Xiao Niao's appearance clearly.

Her pupils trembled uncontrollably the next second—the trembling quickly spread throughout her body.

As if she had been strongly stimulated by something, she could not control her body at all, and even tears began to appear in the corners of her eyes.

Xiao Niao was dumbfounded.

Am I that scary? This was the first thought that flashed through the bird's mind.

Then she thought of something, jumped up in a hurry, and grabbed the trembling porter.

She was a little anxious: "Do you have asthma? Heart disease? Or are you allergic to anesthetics?"

"Hey, hey, hey, don't die, I don't intend to kill you..."

I don’t know if it was an illusion, but the tears in the porter’s eyes flowed even more happily.

Xiao Niao really didn't know what went wrong. She asked the system, but Tongzi couldn't find anything.

[This should be a randomly generated passerby character, right? I can't find any information about it...]

The system was also a little puzzled: [The vital signs are fine... Could it be that he is really a coward and was scared by you?]

Xiao Niao thought that it wouldn't be necessary, then he paused for a moment and touched his smooth chin with sudden realization.

"I didn't have a mask or anything like that on," Xiao Niao said. "She must have thought I was going to silence her."

Yes, that’s definitely the case.

Thinking of this, Xiao Niao looked at the porter in front of him who seemed to have a mental breakdown with a bit of worry, not knowing how to explain.

She couldn't just say: It doesn't matter, I have magic and I'm not afraid of anyone seeing my face.

Besides, she is a kidnapper after all - how can a kidnapper take care of the victim's emotions?

Xiao Niao then made a fierce face and said fiercely, "Shut up! Stop crying!"

The porter was almost unable to breathe with the mask on. She gasped for breath and her hands, which were tied behind the chair back, kept twisting and struggling, trying desperately to break free from the ropes.

Xiao Niao clicked his tongue secretly, luckily I tied the rope tightly, otherwise I would not be able to hold her down now.

But we can't let this person continue to struggle.

Xiao Niao thought about it and took out his spare weapon from his pocket - a long, black object.

She held the thing close to the porter's ear and flicked the switch.

The sound of the surging electricity clearly penetrated the eardrum.

The porter's body trembled again, and she finally stopped her hysterical struggle. The light of reason returned to her dark pupils.

She dropped her arms and breathed heavily, but her eyes never left the person in front of her.

"Listen," Xiao Niao said softly, "I don't know you, and we have no grudge against each other. As long as you cooperate, I promise I won't do anything to you."

"Do you understand?"

The porter was still staring at her, looking frightened.

Just when the bird began to feel impatient, she nodded very slightly.

"Very good," Xiao Niao took back the electric shock device in his hand, "I ask questions, you answer them."

The porter sat obediently on the chair and hummed muffledly through his mask.

Only then did Xiaoniao notice that the man's face was still covered by cloth. She thought about it, reached out her right hand and tried to take off the mask on the other person's face.

"...No," the porter reacted by turning his head away greatly, and dodged Xiaoniao's hand in a panic.

Her tone was so pitiful, almost

It's begging the bird: "Please don't, don't pick it..."

Xiao Niao's hand hesitated and stopped in mid-air. She was a little surprised that this porter, who was covered in dust, sounded unexpectedly young.

But Xiaoniao thought again, no, this girl is not a good person, why should I listen to her?

Xiao Niao then reached out again forcefully. She put her hand behind the porter's ear and groped for the strap.

After being treated so harshly, the porter stopped struggling. Instead, his body began to tremble slightly, and he began to cry as he spoke, "I, I have respiratory allergies..."

Xiao Niao had already taken the ribbon off from behind his ear, and he let out a confused "ah" when he heard that.

"...Why didn't you say so earlier?" she muttered softly. "Okay, then wear it."

The porter stopped trembling and turned her head obediently to make it easier for the bird's fingers to move.

It’s really tiring, Xiao Niao complained inwardly. It’s been such a long time and she hasn’t asked anything.

Kidnapping is indeed not something a normal person can do. It's not as easy as it is portrayed in the movies...

"...Now answer my question," Xiao Niao sighed and sat back on the wooden box. "Who is your boss?"

"……do not know."

The porter was still sobbing softly, "I haven't seen him. Confidentiality is very strict here. We usually only communicate by phone..."

Then, without waiting for Xiao Niao to ask again, she took the initiative to recite her boss's phone number.

After saying this, he kindly gestured with his eyes towards a dirty cabinet: "There's a phone inside, in the second drawer."

Xiao Niao walked over as he was told. There were a lot of miscellaneous items scattered on top of the cabinet, including scissors, paper towels, plastic bottles, and even half a bag of cold rice cakes.

Xiaoniao ignored the clutter and opened the second drawer, where there was indeed a big black mobile phone.

She picked up the bulky phone and examined it, but couldn't see anything wrong with it.

This person seemed to be telling the truth.

Xiao Niao put the phone back. She thought for a moment and said, "I checked around. Why are you the only one here?"

"Well...I'm the only one on duty today."

"On duty?"

"Well," the porter said, "come over here and clean out the boxes."

Xiao Niao's eyes became sharp. She walked over quickly, grabbed the porter's collar with her hand, and said in an extremely harsh tone: "Do you know what you are doing?"

"Don't tell me you're getting paid an abnormally high salary but you have no idea what your job entails."

Xiao Niao made up his mind that if this person said that he knew nothing and was just a porter, he would teach him a lesson.

The porter was silent for a few seconds.

"I know," the man said, surprisingly calmly, "that these things are illegal and that I'm committing a crime."

"You have to pay the price for your crime," Xiao Niao looked at her coldly, "or do you think you'll never be caught?"

The porter shook his head.

"You've got me," she said.

"You must have called the police, didn't you?" The man looked at the bird calmly. "I deserve what I get. The law will definitely judge me."

Her voice was very soft: "...Or do you want to punish me yourself?"

Xiaoniao was speechless.

She looked at the porter on the chair and found that his attitude was even sincere - this made her sarcasm and ridicule have no target for venting.

If the criminal confesses to his crime, what else is there to say?

Xiao Niao irritably dropped his hand from the porter's collar and asked, "...Where do you usually hide your money?"

"There is a dry well behind this yard." The other party replied in a low voice.

The dry well was very deep and pitch black, so the bottom could not be seen. Xiao Niao found a ladder in the warehouse, climbed down, and found a large amount of cash.

Xiao Niao took some of it.

This was also one of her original goals.

It is also quite troublesome for the system to directly produce large amounts of cash.

The exchange of currency and heavy metals not only requires points but also needs to be reviewed by the main controller - because if the amount is too large, it may cause a shock to the original economy of the small world.

But if it is money that already exists in this world, then it doesn’t matter. Even if it is money that was snatched from a bank, the controller won’t care.

Afterwards, Xiao Niao questioned them for a while, trying to find out where they usually hid the kidnapped people.

This was a rather serious question, and she thought she would have to use some special means to pry the answer out of the other person.

...She didn't expect that this person would just blurt out everything to her.

Xiao Niao: “…”

All the carefully prepared words and tactics were of no use.

"...are you so cooperative?" She murmured in confusion.
