"Smack! Smack! ”

The dark sewer was damp and cold, and there was a pungent stench everywhere. From time to time, water droplets dripped from the top of the passage, which was particularly loud in the deathly silence of the passage.

"Click!"

With the sound of the flashlight being turned on, a dim light lit up not far away.

"I've been walking for so long, why can't I see my head yet?"

Ashley grumbled impatiently. The environment in the sewers was really uncomfortable for her, and her own foot injury made her extremely irritable.

"I guess it's almost the end..."

This was already the third time she had whined, and Henry knew she was in a bad mood. Faced with Ashley's question, he could only say perfunctory.

"You can't say anything else?!"

Ashley jerked his hand back from Henry's shoulder, not giving him a good look at all.

Henry didn't expect her to react so much this time, but in order not to irritate her, he had to choose to remain silent.

“…… Why don't you speak?! ”

Ashley lost his temper and saw that Henry had been silent for a long time. She felt that it was not appropriate for her to do so, so she spoke softly.

"I... I don't know what to say......"

Henry felt her emotions ease, and he was relieved. But her question, Henry really can't answer.

"Hmm...... Let's talk about yourself, shall we? ”

Ashley's eyes rolled, and he didn't know why he was interested.

"Me? What do I have to say..."

Henry was stunned when he heard this, he didn't expect her to change so quickly.

"Heck, just talk about it...... Hey, don't think about it, I don't mean anything else......"

Ashley was talking vigorously when he turned his head to find Henry staring at him. She suddenly blushed and said hesitantly.

"Okay! What would you like to hear? ”

Henry smiled and looked away from her. It's okay to have a chat, and it can also divert your attention.

"Hmm...... Your family, right? ”

Ashley heard him say yes, so he casually found a topic.

"Family...... My mother left home when I was very young and I spent all these years with my father......"

Henry tilted his head up, as if caught in a memory.

"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have mentioned it."

After listening to Henry's words, Ashley suddenly felt sorry.

"It's okay, I'm used to it..."

Henry "hehe" smiled, not minding.

"Then I wanted to join the army, but my father didn't agree. I had a big fight with him about it, and I ran away from home that night...... Unexpectedly, my departure would become a farewell ......."

When Henry spoke of his father, tears welled up in his eyes.

"I'm sorry ......"

Ashley couldn't have imagined that he just wanted to liven up the atmosphere, but he was messed up by himself.

"March 1st was the day my father died, and every day I would go to his grave to pay my respects. I hope he doesn't blame me, I'm not a good son......"

The more Henry spoke, the more sad he became, and finally covered his face to prevent Ashley from seeing him crying.

"Your father's spirit in heaven will not blame you...... It's all gone. ”

It was the first time Ashley had seen Henry's true feelings, and she didn't want to see him sad, so she did her best to comfort him.

Henry wiped his face and wiped the tears from his face. He kept telling himself that he must come out of his grief.

"Alright, I'm done with my story, it's your turn?"

Henry adjusted his emotions, and after he collected his mood, he suddenly wanted to hear her story.

"I'm not going to talk about it, am I? It wasn't a happy thing in the first place. ”

Ashley didn't want the bad mood to spread, so she politely rejected him.

"In that case, let's talk when you want to talk, you ...... What's wrong! ”

Henry didn't want to embarrass her, so he stopped in time. But before he could finish his sentence, he heard Ashley silence himself.

"Shhhh You listen ......"

Ashley held up a finger to his mouth, motioning for him to be silent.

"What a bad luck! If you come out to find food, you can fall into the sewer, it really smells! ”

A voice came from not far away, swearing.

"Step! Trample! ”

Footsteps were heard again, and they were getting closer.

"Someone's coming!"

Ashley lowered his voice and said to Henry.

"Hide!"

Henry also heard footsteps, but he wasn't sure if the other party was good or bad, so he pulled Ashley into hiding to be safe.

“MD！ Why is it so dark here! ”

Henry was not far away, but he didn't seem to be carrying any lighting.

A few minutes later, the man walked to where Henry was. Probably because of his poor vision, he didn't notice Henry and Ashley, who were hiding in the small passage.

He stopped, groping around for a while. He took out a cigarette and a lighter from his pocket and prepared to light it.

"Da!"

The lighter was lit, and in an instant the surroundings lit up.

He held up a lighter, trying to see his surroundings by the light of the fire. Suddenly, a man locked his throat from behind and took control of him.

"I'm K!"

The man was restricted from moving, but he wasn't going to sit still. He grabbed one hand by Henry, and the other went down.

He wanted to pull out his gun, but Ashley wouldn't give him a chance. Ashley snatched the gun from him and pointed it at his head.

"Ok! Calm down!"

The man's life was threatened, and he suddenly softened.

"I can give you whatever you want..."

The strange man was suddenly held hostage and unable to resist. He could only obey, and the strange thing was that the other party did not move. He was very uneasy in his heart, so he simply dared to ask.

"What do you have?"

Henry's voice came from his ears, and it sounded like it made his heart go through the cracks.

"Everything is easy to discuss, please raise your noble hand, don't hurt me..."

The man didn't know about Henry's intentions, so he could only say good things with all his might.

"Don't talk nonsense! Do you know how to get out? ”

Ashley snapped, stopping the man from continuing his "nonsense".

"Know! Know! That's where I fell, and above I was hiding, and I can take you there...... Don't kill me..."

The man seemed to grasp the life-saving straw and told what he knew.

"Take us there! Remember, don't play tricks! ”

Henry's arm around his throat tightened again, "threatening" him.

"Don't dare, don't dare! Please come with me? ”

The man's head shook like a rattle, indicating that he would not do anything stupid.

"Let's go!"

Henry let go of the man and pushed him from behind, his gun pointed at his back.

“…… Follow me! ”

After being let go, the man coughed heavily. Then honestly walked ahead and led the way.

Henry and Ashley looked at each other, then followed......

It didn't take long for the man to stop. He pointed upwards and motioned for Henry and Ashley to be in place.

"This is it!"

Henry followed the man's hand and looked up, and it was a manhole cover that was not fully covered.

He pointed his pistol at him and motioned for the man to go up first.

“ok！”

The man understood what Henry meant, and began to climb the ladder.

"Let's go!"

Seeing that the man had already climbed halfway, Henry felt that there was nothing wrong with it, so he beckoned Ashley to follow him.

The man climbed to the position of the manhole cover and removed it with his hands. Then he leaned out half of his body and looked out, and after making sure that there was no danger, he crawled out.

Henry and Ashley followed and climbed the ladder as well.

"Give me your hand!"

When Henry was about to climb out, the man didn't forget to pull him up.

After a while, Henry and the others escaped from the sewers and came to the surface......
