Chapter 37: 37, People from Sichuan State (Fourth Update)
“`
A familiar voice.
Soone was forcefully pounding on the Alloy Gate, and steel beasts roared within the cell, “Newcors, welco to Prison 18!”
Qing Chen sat up from the hard-plank bed, a slight smile spilling from the corner of his mouth.
In his heart, he silently repeated, “Newcors, welco to Prison 18.”
For so reason, the mont he transmigrated back, Qing Chen truly felt a burst of elation and excitent in his heart.
Here were familiar faces, familiar rules, and hopes for the future.
It was as if he belonged to the Inner World rather than the Outer World.
Here, there were no past mories he did not want to recall, no people he needed to worry about.
All he needed to do was move forward, everywhere was a new direction.
He glanced down at his arm but was taken aback.
Return countdown 160:20:09.
Minus the ti he slept, the countdown this ti was actually seven days!
This was too unexpected. Qing Chen had even gotten used to a 48-hour countdown, but the rules had suddenly changed.
Why?
Was there any pattern?
It seed he still needed to explore the rules of transmigration.
Qing Chen approached the Alloy Gate, which opened in response, greeting him with precise timing.
The prisoners outside the corridor saw him and slightly bowed their upper bodies, greeting him with a nod.
Compared to the Outer World, it felt more like his ho ground here.
Qing Chen stood in the corridor and gave Lu Guangyi a nod from afar, which the latter imdiately understood.
After all the prisoners lined up and went downstairs, Lu Guangyi imdiately got to work controlling the new prisoners,
He knew this was what Qing Chen wanted.
Although this might infuriate the other two factions, leading to a possible conflict any day,
he ca to Prison 18 specifically to pave the way for Qing Chen.
To be a pawn, one must have the consciousness of a pawn; a pawn that has crossed the river cannot retreat.
Success brings life, failure brings death, and glory cos at the cost of one’s life.
At the mont, Uncle Li Dong also tacitly consented to Lu Guangyi’s actions; he seed to want to see what Qing Chen planned to do.
Today, seven new prisoners arrived.
While Lu Guangyi was seizing new prisoners, six of them seed to be second-tirs, who chose to accept their fate right away.
Experienced prisoners knew it was better to endure; fighting back would likely make things worse.
However, as Lu Guangyi was about to grab the last new prisoner, the latter kept dodging desperately.
But this prisoner had not a single cybernetic limb on him, how could he, an ordinary man, outrun those steel beasts?
Just as Lu Guangyi was about to catch him, the new prisoner beca frantic, “Don’t fucking touch ! What the hell do you want grabbing , fuck off!”
While dodging and running, he kept cursing, “Don’t fucking ss with ! I’ll slap you to death, you unborn god!”
Qing Chen: “???”
He was completely taken aback by the authentic Sichuan dialect, as in the Inner World, dialects didn’t exist, everyone spoke Mandarin!
Not just Qing Chen but Lu Guangyi and the others were also baffled, “What the hell is this guy saying? Can you guys understand?”
Everyone looked at each other, “We can kind of understand, but not completely.”
When the whole world spoke in the sa accent, a dialect felt so out of place and jarring…
Qing Chen quickly realized this man was a transmigrator!
Because Qing Chen spoke Mandarin and Mandarin was relatively widespread in Los Angeles City, he hadn’t realized that dialect was actually the biggest threat to exposing the existence of the Outer World…
At that mont, Qing Chen could even imagine what sort of situation those transmigrators carrying a dialect would face.
But this guy spoke in a Sichuan dialect, how did he transmigrate to Prison 18? According to the pattern Qing Chen and He Xiaoxiao had summarized before: transmigrators only appeared densely in 19 cities across the country, and the sa transmigrator seed to always transmigrate to almost the sa location, so it should be people from Los Angeles City transmigrating here to Prison 18.
“`
Could there be a problem with the pattern I’ve concluded? Are the landing points of transmigration random?
No, there must be special circumstances.
He glanced at the three individuals downstairs, Uncle Li Dong and his two companions; their expressions had clearly changed, all becoming grave.
Qing Chen felt that unless the other party was an idiot, they would definitely perceive sothing from these continuous unexpected events.
The people of the Inner World learning about the Outer World was only a matter of ti, because there were just too many transmigrators!
Uncle Li Dong, looking at the farce nearby, turned to Lin Xiaoxiao and said, “Catch him and interrogate him carefully, including the earlier Huang Jixian and Liu Dezhu. I think they might all co from the sa place.”
“Understood,” Lin Xiaoxiao said gravely.
A unique Sichuan dialect clue helped Uncle Li Dong link all the strange events that had occurred recently.
This ti, he did not sit back and do nothing, but instead directed Lin Xiaoxiao to take action imdiately.
As soon as his words fell, the man from Sichuan collapsed to the ground, falling into a nightmare.
Lin Xiaoxiao walked up to Lu Guangyi and said calmly, “Step aside, hand him over to .”
However, even faced with soone like Lin Xiaoxiao, Lu Guangyi stiffly retorted, “Only if our boss says so.”
Saying so, Lu Guangyi turned his head to look at Qing Chen, who was still in the shadows of the third-floor corridor.
The prisoners were stunned—wasn’t Lu Guangyi the boss? Who else could be the boss?
Only at this mont did the prisoners around Lu Guangyi understand that Qing Chen was not just a lucky youth who happened to et Uncle Li Dong by chance.
He himself was a True God.
His surna was Qing, and he was Lu Guangyi’s boss!
Thinking of this, many prisoners who had once had designs on Qing Chen imdiately shivered with fear.
Anyone living on the Eastern Continent of the Inner World could not ignore the colossal entity that was Qing’s Family.
It was an era where everyone could only live in the shadow of the five major financial conglorates.
When nothing was amiss, everyone could indulge in pleasure.
But when they truly encountered this colossal entity, everyone would rember the fear of being dominated by the conglorates at so point in their lives.
No one could escape unscathed.
Lin Xiaoxiao looked at Lu Guangyi and smiled, “You know who my boss is and still dare to stand in the way. You do have so backbone, which is good.”
Qing Chen did not wish to put Lu Guangyi in a difficult position, so he nodded his head, signaling for him to let Lin Xiaoxiao pass.
Lin Xiaoxiao pushed through the crowd, lifting the man from Sichuan with one hand and walked out.
Qing Chen watched as the heavy alloy gate of the prison slowly opened for Lin Xiaoxiao, and only closed slowly after he had passed through.
It seed that Uncle Li Dong and his companions could co and go freely in Prison No. 18!
But if they were free to co and go, why didn’t they leave this place?
He slowly descended the stairs and sat down opposite Uncle Li Dong, “Where did Lin Xiaoxiao go?”
“There’s been an unexpected incident,” Uncle Li Dong, holding the big cat in his arms, said slowly, “Although I still can’t make sense of what the incident is, it seems to be sothing beyond my imagination. In the past, if one after another, people of unknown identity appeared around , I would think soone had a ticulous plan to get sothing from , but this ti is different. The other party doesn’t have a plan, and it seems… also lacks a brain.”
Qing Chen fell silent for a long while after hearing this.
At this mont, Qing Chen realized he did not have much ti left.
Let alone the fellow townsman from Sichuan, Liu Dezhu alone would certainly not be able to withstand Lin Xiaoxiao’s interrogation.
Firstly, Liu Dezhu was just a coddled student, not strong-willed.
Secondly, Lin Xiaoxiao possessed a mysterious power of nightmares, which could inadvertently make soone reveal the truth during an interrogation.
The exposure of the Outer World was inevitable, and it would happen soon.
But there was nothing he could do.
He had the Canon score, but he was well aware that against a decisive person like Uncle Li, a score could not change anything.
Qing Chen could only wait.
