Lights were turned on again. Jiang Youyou was dragged into the flat. She took a hasty glance at the face of the burglar. He was in his thirties, with a hunting cap and a pair of red eyes. He had very strong arms and in his left hand he held a knife at the part about seven or eight centimeters from the point. He whispered in her ear, "Don"t cry if you don"t want to die. Take out you money, or I"ll stab you to death as soon as you try to cry."

It was too bad to be unable to tell where he came from by his accent. So it was impossible for her to claim that they were fellow-townsmen. Jiang Youyou shut her eyes tightly and said, "My money is in the purse. I have just paid the tent for this flat and I haven"t found a job yet. You can take as much as I have in my purse. I have closed my eyes so I don"t see your appearance, you can just set your mind at rest."

Once Fang Ruxiang gave a book to Jiang Youyou and she had read it. The book specialized in such cases. And one paragraph of the book quoted the remarks of a police officer w.a.n.g Dawei, which Jiang Youyou had learned by heart as this, "There was a girl from a prestigious university in Beijing, who was a secretary of the League branch. One day she went out by taxi at night. This girl, the secretary of the League branch in a Beijing prestigious university, she might not lack anything, that is to say, she had all kinds of knowledge. But she didn"t have the knowledge of keeping herself safe. She went out at night and she took a taxi. The taxi driver saw she looked very beautiful and she was alone at night, so he raped her. After the violence, the girl said a few words. Just a few words. The girl, just because of these few words, she lost her life. What did she say? She said, "I have remembered what you look like. I"ll certainly call the police to report." So the criminal said, "Now that you have remembered my appearance, why should I leave you alive?" and he stabbed her to death. Later when we police captured the criminal and interrogated the offender, we found out the criminal had raped seventeen girls in total, but the former sixteen were not killed. Why? No one except the seventeenth girl said anything alike. So one needs to keep calm when encountering trouble. Don"t be impulsive."

"Call your husband to send money. Your Hong Kong husband!" The man looked around and put the knife on Jiang Youyou"s belly, holding it at the same part, so that the knife would be stabbed into her body without killing her.

Jiang Youyou felt faint. She shook her head desperately but couldn"t say a word because the man had covered her mouth. She could only make a few broken and unclear utterances, "How could I have a Hong Kong husband? I"ve just moved in."

d.a.m.n it! The man must be mistaken. It was the girl upstairs who went in and out of the community every day in pairs with a man twenty years older than her. An unlucky person would be choked even when he/she drinks cold water.

There was little money in the purse. The man lowered his cap and freed one hand to search in the purse. He stuffed the money in his pocket impatiently and reached Jiang Youyou"s mobile phone to check the phone number.

The man gave Jiang Youyou a loud slap in the face. "You b.i.t.c.h! You said you have no husband, and you have the phone number of "dear husband" in your phone book!"

Bai Zhehan was just going to bed when the phone rang. He checked the caller ID to find it was Jiang Youyou, so he simply ignored.

The phone kept ringing. Finally he received. It was a man"s voice. "Your wife is in my hands now. Come here with a sum of one hundred thousand right now, and I promise not to hurt her. Otherwise you can never see her the rest of your life!" The man threatened, "Now I"ll have your wife speak to you."

Jiang Youyou struggled hard and cried to the phone, "I"m kidnapped, come to my rescue quickly. I"m in Jindian Jianyuan Community, Room seven-zero-four of seventh floor, Building 3. Don"t call the police or I"ll be killed."

The man s.n.a.t.c.hed the phone out of her hand. Bai Zhehan said, "Have you spent all the one hundred thousand yuan so soon? To cheat people in such a way, don"t you think I"m so naïve? I don"t owe you anything now." He finished and hung up.

The point of the knife was pushed into Jiang Youyou"s shoulder. She simply heard a "puff", the sound the knife piercing the skin and flesh. The wound was bleeding slowly. Jiang Youyou gave a strange look at her shoulder. Hearing what Bai Zhehan said, she seemed to understand something all of a sudden, and she had tears and smile on her face at the same time.

"Where"s the money?"

  "I don"t have any money."

The man suddenly felt a chill when he used the knife again to cut off Jiang Youyou"s palm. The girl didn"t even feel the pain and didn"t cry out for it. She was actually grinning at him.

Deng Jun, who had been in underworld for years and had burglarized and robbed for countless times, had never met such a woman. When he broke into their homes, some women would knelt down to beg for mercy, some of them simply peed out of fear, and some others would strip themselves off. Given that some women would struggle a trifle, they would be scared to take off their jewelry when he showed them his knife. Only this woman, she would grin at him, the kind of smile with tears that he might have seen in a ghost movie. She looked as miserable as a female ghost who died with grievance.

What on earth was she going to do?
