Help The Villainess Trapped in the Beast World's Drama (by Lotus Seeds) novel Chapter 1139

Chapter 1139: Chapter 821: The Most Seemingly Honest, Yet Also the Craziest at Heart!

Shu Kui was a former Holy Seat of the Divine Hall, possessing many core secrets. As such an important figure, he was naturally imprisoned in a special monitoring room.

He was locked in an interrogation chair, with his hands and feet bound by special metal rings.

The young man did not appear as disheveled as an Ordinary prisoner; he wore a white lab coat, with black hair and silver eyes, an elegant and fair face, and a metal clip on his left ear.

His slender fingers rested on the back of the chair, wearing half black leather gloves, making his fingers appear long and white, as beautiful as Jade Carving.

Unlike the elegant and refined temperament of those experiments, he was more dashing and handsome. Those unique silver eyes revealed a sharp coldness, giving an exceptionally distinctive impression.

The moment Shen Tang saw the young man, she was slightly stunned and tentatively asked, "Shu... Shu Kui?"

She had seen Shu Kui’s experiments many times, but it was her first time seeing his actual self.

Although his actual self looked different from the experiments, even the temperament was distinct, she was indeed certain in her heart he was the Shu Kui she knew.

Seeing her approach, the young man showed a look of surprise, followed by a relieved smile, "It’s been a while."

Shen Tang chuckled, "How many times have you said that?"

The young man smiled subtly with his silver eyes, seemingly thoughtful, "This calls for some good pondering..."

He lightly turned his wrist, "Don’t get careless, the rings have built-in monitors. Follow my instructions and enforce shutdown."

Shen Tang snapped out of it, quickly stepped forward, and acted according to his instructions, first removing the alarm facilities of the monitor before shutting down and destroying it.

The other restraint devices on the interrogation chair were also unlocked by her one by one.

"Thanks, after being locked in this wretched place for so many days, it feels good to finally stretch a bit." Shu Kui stood up from the chair and twisted his pale wrist bones.

He lowered his gaze, his beautiful and sharp silver eyes looking at her, hiding his surprise, "You really do surprise me time and again; I didn’t expect you could find this place."

"I suppose it’s serendipity. I was caught by the Divine Hall and upon knowing you were captured, I thought I might try to rescue you."

Shen Tang looked at the handsome black-haired young man in front, momentarily feeling wooden and not knowing what to say.

She had always been dealing with his clone until now, her first encounter with his true self, and her heart was indeed excited, as this was essentially their first real meeting. She was somewhat uneasy, unsure of what to say.

Her gaze slightly shifted and noticed the ear bone clip on the young man’s left ear flashing, vaguely seeing a letter engraved on it.

X.

It seemed like the abbreviation of a person’s name.

Many people engrave the initials of important names on commonly worn accessories like earrings and necklaces, symbolizing profound emotions.

Young male Beastmen often engrave the name of their partner.

She instinctively asked, "X... Is this your lover?"

Shu Kui touched the ear clip and looked at her, shaking his head with a smile, "It’s my family."

"Family?" Shen Tang was a bit surprised. Aren’t Holy Seats all experiments cultivated by the Divine Hall? Would he also have family?

She had never seen Shu Kui’s family, nor had she ever heard him mention anything about family. Could it be... they passed away long ago, so he engraved the name of a loved one?

Shen Tang’s expression suddenly showed apology, just as she was about to say something to make up when Shu Kui staggered slightly.

"Ugh..." He clutched his chest, his face suddenly turning pale, exhibiting a very painful expression.

Shen Tang hurriedly supported him, asking worriedly, "What’s wrong?"

At the same time, she quickly gathered a thread of Healing power and probed into the young man’s body, discovering that he seemed to have endured many electrical shocks and injections.

When she pulled up his sleeve, she saw that his fair arm indeed had many needle marks and scars.

Shen Tang couldn’t afford to think much, as she discovered something, her fingers trembled violently.

— Shu Kui’s body had been injected with Return Nest!

Suddenly, she recalled what Lu Xiao said at that time. 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶
