"Are you Miss Meiduo?" Old Hake asked.
Meiduo bit her lip, hesitated, and finally nodded.
"Then that's right!" Old Hake excitedly rubbed his hands together, "We're here to rescue you, madam!"
Madam? Meiduo's face grew even paler.
"We're all Colonel Tian's men!" Old Hake, oblivious to how much he had frightened Meiduo, smiled and stomped on Keo's face: "Good thing that big-head guy recognized you, if anything had happened to you, I would have slaughtered this entire Space Station 106!"
"Colonel Tian?" In Meiduo's mind, it was as if a thunderbolt had struck. The small knife in her hand clattered to the ground. Tears suddenly burst from her eyes: "The Colonel Tian you mentioned, is... is he called Tian Xingjian?"
