In the darkness, a person's hearing becomes much more sensitive.
So it was that this abrupt sentence, every word crystal clear, entered Fu Qian's ears.
Alive, female.
Amidst this very fitting statement, Fu Qian didn't ponder the imminent danger too much but quickly made a judgment based on the limited information.
Although the speaker was lowering their voice, one could still tell that the person was quite young.
After some thought, Fu Qian chose not to respond at all.
"Now, the execution begins!"
The voice outside waited a moment, but receiving no response from Fu Qian, finally spoke again.
As soon as the voice stopped, Fu Qian heard a grating sound that made his teeth chatter.
It was like someone tugging on a hinge, squeezing a spike.
Fu Qian still made no noise, letting the other person proceed.
After a moment, the spikes pressing against his skin didn't actually penetrate.
"Are you okay, Fu Qian? Do you need me to open it for you?"
