Chapter 126 I Actually Deceived Such A Pure Aunt!
Li Xia didn't have time to think about what was happening in front of him, only feeling enveloped in white smoke. He could only reach out and hold Asakawa tightly in his arms.
Without time to appreciate his aunt's graceful figure, a hand reached out from the smoke behind him, a damp handkerchief covering his mouth, a chill coming from the cloth.
Li Xia knew what this was. With his aunt nearby, he couldn't afford to be drugged. Without hesitation, he wanted to bite his tongue to stay alert, then raise his hand to fight back.
"It's me, pretending to be unconscious." A familiar voice came from behind, the voice was very low, only he could hear it. Li Xia knew immediately that it was Komachi Kurenai's voice. While he felt relieved, "annoyed" was no longer enough to express his feelings.
Even if Komachi Kurenai had arrived, this inexplicable smoke bomb was clearly directed by Kirigiri Shimizu. Whatever bizarre thing that strange woman did wouldn't be surprising.
Li Xia hesitated for a moment, feeling that the damp towel didn't induce dizziness. It just obscured his vision with the white mist, but his mind was unusually clear.
His body went limp, falling towards Komachi Kurenai, holding Asakawa Aki tightly in his hands, deciding to wait and see what happens.
Komachi Kurenai immediately changed her tone and leaned in close to Asakawa Aki's ear, saying, "Close your eyes, don't speak, don't turn your head, or else I'll kill this man."
"Who are you?" Asakawa Aki's vision was completely obscured by smoke, unable to see her surroundings, but she instinctively held onto Li Xia, trying to shield him.
"I just want to play a game with you," Komachi Kurenai pulled out a handgun, making a clicking sound as she cocked the trigger. "Right now, my gun is pointed at this man's groin. If you don't want me to shoot, you better behave."
"..." Li Xia felt a chill down below as Komachi Kurenai really pressed the gun against his private parts.
"Uh... "Asakawa Aki was initially quite nervous, but for some reason, being threatened like this by her, she suddenly didn't feel as tense anymore, thinking that this kidnapper wasn't very serious.
The smoke was dissipating, and Komachi Kurenai pulled out an eye mask and placed it on Asakawa Aki. She didn't resist, fearing that the kidnapper would shoot Li Xia in the groin, leaving her unable to use her hands in the future.
Komachi Kurenai escorted the two to a black car parked on the roadside, where Kirigiri Shimizu was already sitting. She glanced at Li Xia from the corner of her eye and knew he hadn't passed out, but didn't say anything.
Asakawa Aki was inexplicably forced into the car and sat next to Kirigiri Shimizu. The car started quickly.
Asakawa Aki clutched Li Xia, who pretended to be unconscious. She didn't believe the kidnappers would talk about honor or play games. It sounded too serious.
Disturbing scenarios involving the kidnappers immediately appeared in her mind. She had to find a way to save him and take on the responsibility of an adult.
Asakawa Aki furrowed her brow desperately, hoping to adjust the eye mask slightly to get a better view of her surroundings.
Her palms were already sweaty, and with her continuous effort, she managed to move the eye mask, revealing a faint glimmer of light.
As Asakawa Aki was about to feel proud of her quick thinking, she noticed Kirigiri Shimizu staring at her from a small gap. She knew this person, Li Xia's mother, and the situation became awkward for a moment.
The two of them locked eyes in this strange position for more than ten seconds, and then Asakawa Aki raised a hand and removed her eye mask.
The atmosphere inside the car suddenly became strange.
Kirigiri Shimizu took out her phone, and a line of text appeared: "I'll help you be with him."
Asakawa Aki was a professor, very intelligent. Although she didn't know what Kirigiri Shimizu was up to, she could guess the general idea, and instantly felt insulted.
What did Kirigiri Shimizu take her for? Her affection for Li Xia had turned sour, but she absolutely didn't want to be together using such methods.
Moreover, she had openly exposed her identity like this without any pretense. It seemed like she firmly believed that even if she knew, she would still cooperate with them in acting, which was a blatant humiliation.
So, she furrowed her brow, expressing her anger, then sat back and, not knowing what to think, tried hard not to blush.
Li Xia was held in Asakawa Aki's arms, and he was now extremely nervous, unsure of what Kirigiri Shimizu, this pervert, was planning to do. Moreover, Li Xia's aunt did not know that this was a fake kidnapping, so she would be under a lot of psychological pressure.
Komachi Kurenai saw everything through the rearview mirror, sighing as she drove. Can't people be more sincere with each other?
The car was speeding, and the two quickly arrived at an arranged basement in the eastern part of the city. It had already been cleared in advance.
Asakawa Aki carried Li Xia, guided by Komachi Kurenai, and they entered a room. Komachi Kurenai didn't bother pretending anymore and gestured to ask if Li Xia wanted a glass of water, so she wouldn't get thirsty later.
And so, the two were thrown into a sealed room.
Li Xia was afraid that if he pretended to be unconscious again, his aunt would be scared. He pretended to wake up, opening his eyes in confusion and innocence, asking, "Wha... What happened?"
Asakawa Aki's eyes were bloodshot, fearful, helpless, and vulnerability was written all over her face. There was also a pleasant surprise upon seeing Li Xia awake. "I don't know where this is either. It's just great that you're awake and okay."
"Hmm." Li Xia's heart raced as he watched. Someone had once said that the more beautiful a woman is, the more likely she is to deceive others. But her aunt was different; she had always had a cheerful personality and never had any ill intentions.
To deceive such an innocent aunt made guilt well up inside him.
Unable to resist, Li Xia hugged Asakawa Aki, feeling her body tremble slightly. He whispered softly, "I will protect you."
"Hmm." Asakawa Aki lay in his embrace, her nose catching a whiff of her nephew's scent, even though it was just the smell of the barbecue they had eaten earlier. It unexpectedly brought her comfort.
At the same time, a wave of shame washed over her. She had deceived him together with Kirigiri Shimizu. As an adult, she felt like a failure.
Just as both of them had their own hidden thoughts, the door to the locked room was pushed open from the outside.
A puppet, riding a tricycle, slowly rode in and stopped in front of them. From its mouth came a grating voice: "Hey, I want to play a game with you."
"Damn, this is too fake." Li Xia's face changed, but she still pretended to be scared, stealing glances at her aunt, afraid that she would figure out the truth.
Asakawa Aki's face turned red, she couldn't believe that the serious kidnappers could come up with something like this, it looked like a scam.
But she still had to pretend to be scared, while sneaking a glance at Li Xia, afraid he would catch on.
So both of them saw fear in each other's faces, silently relieved, it must be because they knew in advance that they found it fake, but from the perspective of others, it looked real.
But the puppet stopped talking after finishing.
Komachi Kurenai sat in the control room, looking at Kirigiri Shimizu, with a very awkward expression: "Sorry, Captain, you requested too tight of a time, this puppet seems to have a little flaw in its design, it got stuck."
