At that moment, as Matthew opened the door to the concrete room, the light from outside illuminated the interior, and he quickly saw the delicate figure lying on the ground. Compared to yesterday, the woman appeared even weaker, and her breathing was faint.
He walked over and remembered what the police had told him just now. He raised his hand and patted her face. After confirming her breath, he was relieved. Even though she was weak, she was alive.
"Hey, wake up!" Matthew grabbed her by the shoulder and shook her. "Wake up!"
Alivia only felt that her body was constantly pushed by a pair of big hands in her hazy sleep. The strength was from small to large, which made her cold body even more uncomfortable.
She slowly opened her eyes, and her vision was blurred. After a long time, she could clearly see who it was.
It was one of the men who had hit her before.
Alivia instinctively became alert. Her eyes were bloodshot, and her face was sallow, but she still widened her eyes. "What, what are you going to do..."
The words came out in a hoarse and toneless voice, sounding dozens of times more unpleasant than a duck's quack.
Seeing that she had woken up, Matthew breathed a sigh of relief and said in a low voice, "Don't be afraid. I won't hurt you..."
"Don't get close to me!" Alivia curled up. The long time of being tied up made the blood in her hands and feet not flow, and her limbs were numb.
"I won't touch you, I..." Matthew paused and lowered his voice again. "The police have their eyes on this place. I'm here to help you!"
