Chapter 813: Chapter 813: Entering the Small Dark Room_1

Chapter 813

Inside the small, dark and cramped room, there wasn’t even a single window.

The only source of light was a small flame affixed to the wall next to the doorway.

It was a small oil lamp, providing little in the way of illumination.

Through the dim light, one could just barely make out a girl lying in this small room that was two meters wide and five meters long.

A long time later, she stirred and opened her eyes

The next second, she sat up abruptly, her entire body alert and on guard.

After glancing around guardedly for a long time, her clenched hands slowly relaxed, and she stood up.

This place was no different from a solitary confinement cell in a prison—small and dark, without any windows, inducing a mental state of terror and self-closure. It was a harsh environment.

But for her, it was tolerable.

Back in the mountain, she always hunted and ate wild chickens, so was often punished with solitary confinement by her master.

Although the environment there was better than here, it was still confinement, more or less the same thing.

She could endure it.

She took off her earplugs, listening to the movement outside.

In an instant, many sounds flooded into her ears.

After discerning, she could hear the closest sound to her, approximately one to two hundred meters from her.

"I bet Bennett White has lost his chance at the helmsman position this time. He made the mistake on his own, willingly gave up his rescue mission for others, the clients were very angry."

"But I heard that the higher ups still value him very much, and the treatment he received this year was already at the level of the executives, they can’t possibly give him up just because of this incident, right?"

"If they don’t give up on him, they’ll be going against the other competitors. Do you think the executives would do that? Would the other competitors be willing to accept this? Just take our Master Boone, for example, would he be satisfied? He’s had his eye on that helmsman position for a long time!"

"Sigh, that’s true. Bennett has so many competitors, there are countless people waiting for him to make a mistake. This time, they will definitely latch onto this opportunity.

"However, if we’re being honest, Master Boone has also made quite a few minor mistakes in these years. Even now there’s a newcomer in detention. If the helmsman learns about this, other competitors will definitely seize this chance."

"Why do you bring this up? Do you think Master Boone would let others know about this? Of course not! Others have no proof, they can’t do anything to him. We’re watching over this place, and the newcomers’ skills are low, unless they are very obedient, they won’t be able to get out."

"Master Boone is always so bold when he plays around. No matter whether they’re obedient or not, it’s them who have to suffer. Just take the last one, for example, she almost died, and she was in her menstrual period too!"

"Oh stop, someone’s coming."

Three minutes later, the door was opened.

Cold Lizard stood in the middle, a smirk on his face, he asked her, "Have you thought it through?"

Chloe Collins’s mask maintained its expressionless demeanor.

She said, "Yes, I have thought it through."

Cold Lizard let out a fit of laughter, then had someone take her out.

As she was led away, the path was unfamiliar to her.

Additionally, the sound of the sea waves was incredibly close.

Could it be... a boat?

Looking down at the floor under her feet, she immediately confirmed her suspicion.

Sure enough, after a short while, she was led into a cabin above.

Outside was an endless expanse of ocean.

The castle-like building was quite a distance from here, to the extent that even though it was evening leisure time, the people coming and going from the back entrance were only ant-sized in her eyes.

If she were to scream here, no one would be able to hear her.

She was then led into a cabin room with a window, inside was a bedroom, equipped with everything.

(Good night, everyone.)
