Chapter 120
Shen Yue walked from Building 1 to Building 3, and there were constantly probing gazes falling on her. However, she acted as if she did not feel anything and continued walking on her own.
The reason why the prisoner in Building 1 was assassinated came from the task content and reward given by people outside the prison. In other words, the bargaining chip was in the prison. As for whether the chip was dead or alive, it depended on the gambling of those outside people.
But Shen Yue did not have this condition on her. She was able to enter this prison entirely thanks to her sister Shen Hui's arrangement. But now, Shen Hui was dead, so why she would still be here became a problem.
What value did she have that could threaten outsiders? She obviously had no one outside.
In order to figure this out, Shen Yue chose Building 3 where you could not lie.
She wanted to figure out the value on her.
Shen Yue had the intention to uncover the truth, but the little secrets other prisoners had about Shen Yue had already turned ten thousand eight hundred miles long.
The private rules made by Shen Yue yesterday had already been issued to every prisoner's ears.
Choosing to confront Building 4 directly was not a good thing for anyone. Building 4 could be said to be an existence that all buildings were wary of. After all, the people inside were not normal. As long as they were not prisoners who wanted to die, they would not easily provoke Building 4.
And the prisoners who dared to make Building 4 lose face were either the ones who died the earliest or lived the longest.
There was no need to say about those who died early. Those who lived long, like Ma Sha.
When Ma Sha first came in, she made a bunch of rules and arrogantly made others obey. Everyone thought she was stupid, but none of the people who tried to assassinate her survived.
Up till now, no one in the prison dared to accept jobs about Ma Sha from outside anymore. Even Ma Sha’s followers, they did not even dare to have ideas easily.
Now this newcomer happened to be on the same floor as Ma Sha, so everyone held a wait-and-see attitude. Some people felt that she would be the next Ma Sha, while others felt that she was just simply stupid. When Tang Yi arrived at Building 3, Shen Yue had already entered Building 3.
Shen Yue did not need to follow the rules and could go to any building she wanted, but Tang Yi and the others could not easily cross the rules and enter other buildings’ private areas, otherwise they would be shot into sieves by the induction scanning machine guns.
“We’ll just wait here. Her private rules stipulate that Guard No.14 from Building 4 cannot appear within her sight. Be careful not to be spotted by her,” Tang Yi said while looking for the best observation point.
Know yourself and know your opponent, then you can win every battle.
Tang Yi has always believed that only when you truly understand a person can you kill him in the most perfect way.
So he and the people he brought quietly waited under Building 3.
Soon, Shen Yue and Guard No.14 came out of Building 3.
Tang Yi was stunned when he found out Shen Yue was the newcomer high-level prisoner from Building 1.
On the day Shen Yue arrived, he had opened the door for more than 10 people. Shen Yue was the only one who spoke to him, asking about his salary.
Logically speaking, people who could enter Building 1 would not care about this kind of problem, so Tang Yi had excluded Shen Yue first. He did not expect the truth to always be the most unexpected one.
Indeed, for some matters, just considering logic would not lead to the correct answer.
Shen Yue was now on her way back to Building 1. Tang Yi and his men followed behind her, observing her walking posture and muscle condition, only to find she was completely unguarded, unlike Ma Sha who seemed carefree but was actually vigilant everywhere. Shen Yue had loopholes everywhere.
On the other hand, Guard No.14 next to her had a higher level of attention and wariness of the surroundings than when serving any previous Building 1 prisoner before.
Tang Yi thought for a while and said to the prisoner next to him, “Guard No.14 should know this newcomer. We can find out who her guarantor is along this line, determine the guarantor, dig out her past, and locate her weaknesses.”
“Understood, boss!”
Tang Yi stared at Shen Yue’s back. He did not get close. He suddenly remembered something.
He had promised to tell her his salary when they met again. They had met now, but the restrictions of her private rules prevented him from fulfilling his promise.
That would be troublesome. Tang Yi did not like when someone else broke their promise to him, not even when he was the one who broke it.
If that was the case, then there was only one way―make Shen Yue take the initiative to leave Building 1. As for the motive... if there was no motive, then create one.
“The promise must be kept.”
...
Shen Yue still did not know that she had been spotted by the number one difficult psychopath recognized in prison. Under Guard No.14 escort, she returned to Building 1.
Back on the 34th floor, sitting on the soft and spacious bed, Shen Yue looked out the window, not knowing for a moment what she should do. She had originally imagined that Shen Hui was not dead yet. It was because of Shen Hui’s existence that she could have value in prison.
But in reality she was wrong.
It was exactly because Shen Hui had died that she had value now.
This was a secret between her and Shen Hui that only the two of them knew. Now, various countries were fighting desperately for ownership of this secret. What Shen Yue had to do was wait until the final victor came before her. That would be the end of this world.
Lying on the bed, Shen Yue chuckled softly. Wasn’t this making her seem like a princess?
A long time ago, Shen Hui had asked her, “Sister, have you heard the story of the princess and the dragon?”
“Is it the one where the princess gets caught by the dragon, and then many princes are ready to come save her?”
Shen Hui nodded. “Yes. What do you think of this story?”
Back then, Shen Yue’s reply was, “Very romantic. The prince who saved the princess must be able to give the princess a happy life.”
Shen Hui sneered. “You’re wrong. The prince saves the princess not for the sake of the princess herself, but for the value on the princess. In the end there is only one prince who makes it to the princess, but in fact there were many princes at first. It’s just that they were all defeated. Only the strongest person can make it to the princess. After that, all that awaits the princess is when the prince uses love to restrain her and sucks dry every drop of value from her body.”
“Then... what should the princess do? Can she not resist?”
“Of course she can. As long as the princess dies in front of the prince and king, then the prince will realize that after defeating so many and striving for so long, what he obtained has completely turned into bubbles. That kind of expression must be very interesting.”
Shen Yue did not understand much back then, but now she understood.
If her sister thought it would be interesting, then Shen Yue would be willing to become the “princess”.
What she had to do now was wait.
