Chapter 296 Together
“Here is the free activity time, those who need to move around…
A man’s voice echoed through the prison, followed by a light sound, and all the cell doors opened simultaneously. Numerous prisoners stepped out of their cells, lining up to walk outside.
As soon as he exited the prison, Han Laoda, with a serious expression, quickly led a group of over forty people toward a dark corner.
That was the far end of the reading room floor, away from the sunlight, shrouded in darkness, with only one surveillance camera at the end of the corridor watching this area. In a sense, this was the weakest monitored spot in the entire fasting facility, aside from the restroom.
At this moment, in the corner at the end of the corridor, three men were sitting there. Upon seeing Han Laoda approach with a fierce demeanor and a group of people, their eyes narrowed slightly.
The leading man slowly stood up, his expression unfriendly as he spoke:
“Han Jinlong, what do you want by bringing so many people here?”
Han Laoda’s gaze swept over the three men, and he coldly replied, “What I came for, you already know in your hearts.”
The leading man was taken aback, slightly tilting his head to exchange glances with his two companions, all three showing confusion in their eyes.
He turned to look at Han Laoda, coldness flashing in his eyes, “Are you here to pick a fight?”
“Heh heh…” Han Laoda cracked his neck, a fierce expression on his face, “So what if I am? Do you really think I, Han Laoda, am easy to bully?”
“Han Jinlong.” The leading man’s expression changed slightly, “Do you know who we are?”
“You? Aren’t you just [Believers]?” Han Laoda pointed at the three men with a finger, “The twelfth seat, the sixth seat, and the fourth seat.”
“You know our identities, yet you dare to provoke us? Do you know that someone like you outside, I could crush ten of with just one finger!” The leading man, the fourth seat, said angrily.
“I don’t care what seat you are or how high your realm is. This isn’t outside; this is the fasting facility!” Han Laoda pointed at himself, sneering,
“Here, I am the boss!”
With a wave of his hand, he commanded, “Beat them up!”
In the next moment, the over forty prisoners surged forward, crowding into the narrow end of the corridor, and a chaotic brawl broke out.
Ten minutes later.
Han Laoda looked at the three [Believers] lying on the ground, bruised and battered, brushed the dust off his hands, and spat on them.
“Daring to provoke me, you really are tired of living… Let’s go!”
Behind him, the forty or so prisoners were all injured, but they glared provocatively at the three Believers on the ground before staggering away behind Han Laoda.
The three Believers widened their eyes, staring fiercely at the departing figures, their eyes filled with bloodshot rage, as if they wished they could tear them apart.
They were among the top ranks of the [Believers], considered a disaster-level existence outside, but in this fasting facility, they were just relatively capable ordinary people.
As the saying goes, two fists can’t fight four hands. With everyone unable to use forbidden techniques, no matter how skilled the three of them were, they couldn’t possibly take down over forty prisoners who were also quite capable, not to mention Han Laoda, whose physical combat power was off the charts.
So, they got beaten up… and it was quite a beating.
The sixth seat struggled to get up from the ground, his eyes fixed on the direction Han Laoda and the others had left, wiping Han Laoda’s spit off his face, nearly exploding with anger.
“Damn it, I can’t take it anymore! This Han Jinlong actually dared to treat us like this… Tonight, I will take care of him!”
“Calm down.” The fourth seat wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and took a deep breath, “Although I don’t know what kind of drug Han Jinlong has taken, we can’t let ourselves get flustered. Have you forgotten what Lord [Murmur] instructed?”
Upon hearing the words [Murmur], the sixth seat and the twelfth seat fell silent.
“Our mission is almost complete. Since we’ve endured for so many years, do we really need to rush these last few days?” The fourth seat’s gaze swept over the corridor where everyone had left, a cold killing intent flickering in his eyes,
“When the town’s monument is destroyed and the fasting facility erupts in chaos, with just a little Han Jinlong, won’t he be at our mercy?”
By then, we will let him know what it means to be unable to live or die…
…
“You’re the new prisoner, right?”
Just as he walked out of the prison, An Qingyu was stopped by a man with a menacing scar on his face. The man squinted his eyes, sizing him up, seemingly lost in thought.
An Qingyu scrutinized him for a moment and nodded, “Do you need something from me?”
“Do you know the one-eyed guy? He used to be in the cell opposite yours.” The scar-faced man got straight to the point.
“I know him.” An Qingyu answered truthfully.
“Did you kill him?”
“What are you talking about?” Confusion appeared in An Qingyu’s eyes, “This is a prison, how could one kill someone here?”
The scar-faced man frowned slightly, staring intently into An Qingyu’s eyes, trying to find signs of deceit, but An Qingyu’s gaze was too clear, like an innocent neighbor boy.
“He really wasn’t killed by you?” The scar-faced man scratched his head.
“No.”
“What crime did you commit to end up here?”
“Stealing.”
“Oh…” The scar-faced man pondered for a moment, feeling that he might have been overthinking it. How could such an ordinary boy quietly take out the one-eyed guy and then skillfully dismember and dispose of him?
“Can I leave now?” An Qingyu blinked.
“Oh, you can.” The scar-faced man nodded. Just as An Qingyu was about to leave, the man seemed to remember something, “Wait a minute!”
An Qingyu stopped in his tracks.
“Lift your head, let me take a good look.” The scar-faced man walked up to An Qingyu, carefully examining his face. After a moment, a strange light appeared in his eyes.
“You’re quite a catch too… If I hand you over to Han Laoda, it might not be a bad idea…”
The corner of An Qingyu’s mouth twitched slightly.
“Can I leave now…”
“You can’t leave.” The scar-faced man rubbed his hands together, a smile spreading across his face, “Come back with me to see Han Laoda. You look good, although not as good as that sickly guy, but you have your own charm.”
From now on, you’ll be Han Laoda’s person.
An Qingyu fell silent for a moment, “You mean… you want me to cooperate?”
The scar-faced man’s eyes lit up, nodding repeatedly, wearing an expression of “You understand, huh?”
“Yes, just cooperate.”
An Qingyu nodded, turned to look around, then faced the scar-faced man, innocently saying, “Before I cooperate, I want to use the restroom first.”
The scar-faced man was taken aback, “Go ahead, I’ll wait for you outside.”
An Qingyu pondered for a moment, “How about… we go together?”
