The sound seemed to be coming from the next room. Hearing the footsteps moving towards the right, Shen Ping put on another piece of clothing, opened the door, and stuck her head out.

The passage of the inn was not completely dark. There was a dim oil lamp at the corner. Shen Ping saw a man crouching and looking furtively at a door.

Fearing that the other party would find out, Shen Ping retracted her head. When she looked out again, the other party had disappeared.

Shen Ping's heart skipped a beat. She didn't know whether this man was a thief or a tenant. Shen Ping thought about it and walked towards the direction of the man.

The night was as cold as water. As soon as Shen Ping walked out of the room, she felt a chill and couldn't help but shrink her neck.

The entire inn was silent, with only the sound of Shen Ping's footsteps. Shen Ping came to the door where the man had just been, only to see that it was ajar.

Shen Ping listened carefully and there seemed to be no movement inside. Shen Ping reached out and gently pushed the door, and a crack immediately appeared.

Shen Ping squinted his eyes and looked inside. There were more than ten or twenty beds inside. Shen Ping suddenly realized that this was the dormitory room.

Shen Ping took a look and saw that the beddings of many beds were neatly folded, and it seemed that some of the beds were occupied by people.

Shen Ping looked around and saw that there didn't seem to be any movement from the people inside, probably all of them were fast asleep.

Shen Ping frowned, wondering if she was dazzled. The man from the room next to her was clearly at the door, but he disappeared in just a moment. He was still not inside.

It seemed that she was overthinking. Shen Ping withdrew her gaze and was about to leave when she suddenly heard an unusual sound, like a whimpering sound made by someone covering their mouth.

Shen Ping heard it correctly. On the other side of the wall, a woman was lying on the bed with her mouth covered.

The woman's name was Cui Feng. She was sleeping soundly when she suddenly felt her body become heavy, as if someone was pressing down on her. She opened her eyes in horror and was greeted by a pair of fierce eyes.

Just as she was about to open her mouth to yell, she was covered by his hand and warned fiercely in a low voice: "Don't move, or I'll strangle you to death~"

The woman was so frightened that she reacted immediately and tried to push the other person away, but the strength difference was too great and she could not move and could only moan softly.

She hoped that someone in the next bed could hear it so that she could scare the other person away, but unfortunately, the person in the next bed turned over and continued to sleep.

Watching the room return to calm, the man stuffed Cui Feng's mouth with a cloth, grabbed her hands with one hand like a pair of pliers, and began to grope her body with the other hand. Cui Feng suddenly felt desperate.

The man's eyes were flashing with excitement in the darkness, and he was unaware that the door next to him was opened.

Just as he was about to take the next step, his collar was suddenly grabbed by someone, and it was Shen Ping.

After hearing the unusual sound, Shen Ping stuck her head in and saw a bed against the wall near the door.

The woman on the bed had a cloth stuffed in her mouth, and a man was trying to do something bad to her.

Shen Ping's eyes suddenly burst into tears, and she subconsciously pushed the door open, walked in, grabbed the man, and punched him. She kicked him in the crotch, and the man screamed in pain and fell to the ground.

"Ouch~"

The noise woke up the others. Many of them sat up immediately and looked around, saying, "Who~Who~"

At this time Cui Feng finally realized that she was rescued. She was so scared that she immediately sat up, pulled the cloth from her mouth, and began to sob softly.

"Woooooo~"

At this time, someone lit a tinder and lit the oil lamp.

"Girl, are you okay?" Shen Ping looked at the girl on the bed with concern. She was about fifteen or sixteen years old, with good facial features, and was considered a lovely girl. Her clothes were torn, revealing her snow-white skin.

He quickly pulled the quilt over and wrapped her up.

After lighting the oil lamp, everyone discovered that a man with a pointed chin and monkey cheeks was lying on the ground, his mouth full of blood, his body hunched over, and he was holding his crotch in pain.

Everyone recognized him as a tenant of the collective room. Before going to bed, everyone started chatting and found out that his name was Bald Donkey.

As his name suggests, this bald man doesn't have much hair and has a pointed face and monkey cheeks. His bed is in the corner. Seeing this scene, everyone seemed to understand something.

There were two women in their 50s and four or five men in the group.

The two women ran over and asked Cui Feng with concern: "Miss, did he bully you?"

Cui Feng kept crying, nodding and shaking her head.

"Oh, girl, you really make me anxious!" said the woman Luo anxiously.

"Do I need to ask? He must be the one trying to do something bad to this girl!" the man on the other bed said angrily.

"Everyone, hurry up and arrest him and send him to the authorities!" Shen Ping shouted loudly.

The two men reacted at this time, got out of bed and grabbed the man on the ground.

"Please spare me! Madam, please spare me!" The bald donkey struggled and fell to his knees, shouting, "I will never dare to do it again. Please spare me this time."

"No, you must send him to the authorities!"

"Yes! Such a person wants to harm other girls. If it happens for the first time, there will be a second time!" Everyone stood up for justice.

Soon, the noise in this room woke up other people. People in the next room opened their doors one after another, and Tiechui also came out to see what was going on.

I saw people coming in and out of the room not far away, and I didn’t know what happened.

"Hey~ Why are you still awake in the middle of the night? What's wrong?" someone said angrily.

"You may not know yet, but a bad guy was caught in the collective~" a woman said with a beaming face. She had trouble sleeping, and when she was woken up, the first thing she did was to go over and see.

Tiechui also followed to watch the excitement. When he saw Shen Ping inside, he quickly ran in and asked in a panic, "Madam, why are you here? Are you okay? I heard that the thief was caught!"

"Yes! You're here at the right time. Go and call the shopkeeper." Shen Ping said to Tiechui.

“Oh~oh~”

Tiechui reacted immediately, turned around and ran out.

"kill him!"

"He must be beaten to death!"

More and more people gathered at the door, and after everyone learned about the situation, they began to criticize.

Seeing the public indignation and the overwhelming emotions, Bald Donkey dared not say a word anymore. He lowered his head and huddled into a ball.

Soon, Shopkeeper He went upstairs. Shopkeeper He lived on the first floor. People reported the matter to the waiter one after another. The waiter knew that the matter was no trivial matter, so he quickly knocked on Shopkeeper He's door.

Shopkeeper He was sleeping soundly, but when he was woken up by the waiter, he opened the door angrily and said, "Dagui, you are rebelling, you!"

"Boss, something happened!" Dagui looked anxious.

Upon hearing that something had happened, Shopkeeper He suddenly became much more sober and had a bad feeling in his heart.
