Chapter 616: Chapter 614 Suspicion
“Stay put and don’t cause any trouble. Wipe the dirt off the floor, garbage!” the guard cursed as he walked away.
The bell to return to the cells rang.
The inmates gradually returned.
Sally Teleport(ed) back to her own solitary cell, holding a plastic bag containing Linai’s ashes.
[Xiaomei, how could a mighty Demon God like him let me kill him so easily?]
[He didn’t put up any fight and died readily, but why didn’t he resist?]
[How should I know? I didn’t expect to encounter him when coming here.] Sally looked at the bag of ashes, finding it all very strange.
[Xiaomei, do you think he did the same as us and escaped death?]
[Would the Host like to check why he was here?]
[Hmm, his ready death definitely has some trickery involved; the more they want us to leave, the more we can’t comply with their wishes.] Sally decided to stay a few more days.
She opened the System Map, maximized it, and temporarily muted the sound to prevent too much noise from flooding into her consciousness.
However, as soon as she opened it, Sally was shocked; the entire Heizhou Prison was encompassed by her System Map!
[Xiaomei, has our map always covered such a broad range?]
[Yes, Host.]
[Impressive, impressive.] Sally praised.
[Host could listen to what the people around are saying.]
[Hmm.] Sally began to listen to the voices, starting nearby and then expanding outward.
“…Heard he was miserably played by Xi Seno, but he seems to be in good spirits today, so it looks like Xi Seno isn’t up to much.”
“That ‘Little Princess’ called the Sword Emperor ‘Great Princess’; he’s got a lot to endure from now on.”
“She’s really pretty, with such white skin… just thinking about it makes me drool!”
“Get rid of him!”
“I want to see my lawyer, I’ve been wronged, I didn’t kill anyone, I didn’t… I’ve been framed… ”
“I heard that Gananer is likely to get elected this time; I’ve got dirt on him!”
“Black has taken a fancy to that ‘Little Princess’, probably had his way with her already!”
“Hehehe, it’s heating up. Who doesn’t know the Sword Emperor loves to snatch what others like?”
“The latest news is that Xi Seno has proposed to transfer ‘Little Princess’ back. ‘Little Princess’ was only sentenced to six months, she shouldn’t be in the North Prison Area. But if he knew that Black already possessed the ‘Little Princess’, he’d probably torture her to death.”
“I bet two cigarettes the ‘Little Princess’ won’t last three days.”
“I’ll bet a box that the ‘Little Princess’ won’t make it two days…”
…
Sally rubbed her forehead, concentrating, and listened to the conversations of the guards.
“…Did the Wu Family really spend so much money to transfer their son from South Prison to North Prison Area?”
“They are probably giving up on this son. Because of this scandal, the Wu Group has lost a lot of money.”
“I heard Old Master Wu has an illegitimate son whom he brought home to take over the family business.”
“Then this one’s abandoned.”
“So much money wasted on an abandoned son?”
“Who knows? How much did you get?”
“Not much, only fifty thousand.”
“I got fifty thousand as well. But with so many of us and the bribes for the higher-ups, it must’ve cost millions.”
Sally continued to extend her attention further away.
In the Prison Warden’s office.
The Prison Warden had a cigar in his mouth, a glass of red wine in his hand, and a ten-million-dollar check on the desk.
Satisfied, she put away the check and made a phone call; soon, the other party picked up.
“Before breakfast tomorrow,” a voice came through the phone.
The Prison Warden replied, “That will do.”
After hanging up the phone.
A guard came over and said to the Prison Warden, “Xi Seno is here.”
“…Tell him there’s a new arrival today and to go back and wait,” the Prison Warden said as he took a sip of red wine.
A man with auburn short hair and black eyes entered the Prison Warden’s office, his mixed features stern and cold.
He was lean, with a slim and streamlined figure, understated muscles that nonetheless conveyed a sense of explosive power, and his large hands with clearly defined knuckles had rough palms, particularly the space between the thumb and index finger showed obvious calluses… He must handle guns frequently.
Still bearing such marks in prison, it was clear that he had never fallen out of practice with this “shooting” sport.
Sally’s attention was on Xi Seno.
“Don’t tell me you’ve taken a fancy to the ‘Little Princess,'” the Prison Warden naturally knew Wu Zheyu’s ‘nickname’ in prison.
Xi Seno said, “I can do three jobs for you for free, no strings attached.”
The Prison Warden was taken aback, then slowly smiled, a smile full of satisfaction, “What about what we talked about last time?”
“That’s fine. Even if I didn’t agree, you’d have other ways to make me do it.”
“No, no, honestly, I haven’t thought of anything yet. This leverage, you delivered it to me personally.”
“Before the sleep bell rings, I want him lying beneath me!” 𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑝𝘶𝘣.𝑐𝘰𝘮
“No problem.”
…
Sally stood in the corner, holding her head, squatting up and down repeatedly.
When the guard arrived, she didn’t say a word, just grabbed her blanket and followed him.
“How come you’re behaving this time?” the guard asked.
Sally didn’t speak.
The guard glanced at her, “Got smart, did you?”
Sally nodded.
The guard responded, “That’s right, you should’ve been like this all along. Your family… cough, this time going back to the South Prison, serve Xi Seno well.”
Sally followed the guard, walked through a long corridor, and entered the South Prison Area.
Some criminals locked in their cells rushed to the doors when they heard the noise and shouted loudly, “The ‘Little Princess’ is back—everyone welcome!”
Whistles erupted everywhere, and some men looked at Sally with filthy eyes, as if she were a piece of exquisite delicacy, taking verbal advantage of her even if they couldn’t have her.
Sally blocked out her hearing, or she might just annihilate the entire Heizhou!
Finally, Sally stopped at cell number 14.
Inside, Xi Seno was playing cards, with a cigarette dangling from his mouth.
Hearing the guard unlock the door, he played a single card.
Sally politely thanked the guard, then, seeing the fully occupied beds, she naturally placed her blanket on Xi Seno’s bunk.
The guard watched Sally’s slim and delicate back with a sudden twinge of compassion, but this was prison… Once you’re in here, you’re in hell!
Xi Seno continued to play cards, glancing over at Sally, who after making her bed, crawled in and obediently went to sleep.
Lifting his leg, he kicked out, snarling, “Do you think you came here to live like a queen?”
Sally turned over, deftly avoiding his kick.
Xi Seno tossed his cards aside, “Seems you haven’t been disciplined enough.”
His underling across from him wisely pulled out a special Tasselled Whip from under his pillow.
Sally didn’t even glance at the whip, her gaze on Xi Seno as if he were already a dead man.
