In the prison of Qingcheng Investigation Bureau.
Dong dong dong!
Ye Lin, who was sound asleep, was awakened by the sound of iron being knocked.
A cup of mixed soy milk and an aluminum-excessive fried dough stick along with two lymph nodes meat buns were placed in front of Ye Lin.
"Ye Lin, it's time to eat."
Xu Xiu, Huang Litian's apprentice, handed a breakfast to Ye Lin's cell door.
This instantly aroused the dissatisfaction of another prisoner.
"Come on, sir! We're both in prison. Why does he get soy milk, fried dough sticks and buns while I only get steamed buns and white porridge?"
"He's a college entrance examination candidate. Tomorrow is the exam. If you were a candidate, you could have the same." Xu Xiu glared at the man, who immediately shrank his neck and dared not speak anymore.
Ye Lin raised his eyes and saw that the cell opposite him was occupied by a thin man who looked like a monkey, with sunken eye sockets and a weak appearance.
Noticing Ye Lin looking at him, the monkey-like man couldn't help but greet him.
"Oi! Brother, you're a college entrance examination candidate. How come you're in here? This doesn't make sense. What did you do?"
"Me? They suspect I killed Kenson." Ye Lin replied truthfully.
"What? !" The monkey man's voice suddenly became sharp. "Just you? A high school student? And you killed Kenson? Brother, I've traveled all over the place and met so many people, but you are definitely the most boastful one I've ever seen!"
"Then what about you? Why are you in here?" Seeing that the other didn't believe him, Ye Lin didn't explain further. He took a bite of the steamed bun and asked. Only those who had changed their profession could be imprisoned in the Investigation Bureau.
"Ah! Just talking about this makes me so angry! Damn it, there was nothing wrong at first. I changed my profession to Swift Shadow Hunter, and everything I did was super fast. That's why I became a flower snatcher. But then I accidentally offended the wife of a big shot, and that's how I got caught." The monkey man sighed heavily.
Ye Lin's mouth twitched slightly. It was the first time he had seen someone describe their speed so poetically. And Swift Shadow Hunter, as far as he knew, was an S-rank rare profession, known for its incredible speed and agility. It could disappear in an instant, leaving no trace. A high-level Swift Shadow Hunter was the best scout and assassin.
But this monkey man, who had awakened the Swift Shadow Hunter profession, actually used its speed to become a flower snatcher. Truly, every profession has its own experts.
"Brother, aren't you curious about who that big shot was? When they arrested me, they sent out nearly ten investigators above level 40." The monkey man chuckled.
Ye Lin was slightly stunned, a hint of curiosity rising in his heart. In the small town of Qingcheng, investigators above level 40 were already considered the most powerful. What kind of big shot would make the Investigation Bureau go to such great lengths?
"Tell me about it." Ye Lin swallowed the last steamed bun and looked at the monkey man seriously.
A trace of pride flashed in the monkey man's eyes, as if he was reliving the wonderful moment. "That woman was indeed beautiful. Mmm..." "..."
"Hey, you were told to talk about that big shot, not his wife," Ye Lin reminded him.
"Hehe, you won't believe it, but that woman is the wife of the deputy director of the Qingcheng Investigation Bureau!" the monkey-faced man said smugly.
The wife of the deputy director of the Qingcheng Investigation Bureau?
Ye Lin's expression turned strange. No wonder the Investigation Bureau sent ten investigators above level 40 to catch this guy. Not killing him on the spot was already quite merciful.
"Brother, you really have the nerve. You dare to mess with any woman," Ye Lin couldn't help but shake his head and say.
"Hey! Do you think that deputy director of the Investigation Bureau is a good guy? I was hiding in his closet at the time and heard him talking to Kenson on the phone. Kenson even said he had something to offer him," the monkey-faced man said disdainfully.
"What did you say?" !" Ye Lin jumped up in an instant, looking at the monkey-faced man in astonishment. The deputy director of the Investigation Bureau was on the phone with Kensun?If they were in cahoots, wouldn't he be walking straight into the lion's den? Just as he stood up, Ye Lin felt a wave of dizziness. Clearly, there was some unknown drug in the breakfast he had just eaten!
With a clang, Ye Lin fell to the ground as he couldn't stand steadily. He felt all his strength draining away.
"Brother, what's wrong with you?" the monkey-faced man asked.
"Don't worry about me. Worry about yourself," Ye Lin said with a bitter smile.
If the other party was going to attack him, the monkey-faced man right in front of him would surely be killed. After all, from his position, he could clearly see everything on this side.
"Me? What do I have to worry about? I'll be released in two and a half years anyway."
The monkey-faced man was puzzled. The next second, a long knife flashed like a streak of light and pinned him to the wall.
The monkey-faced man never expected to be attacked in the Bureau's prison, so he had no defense. Blood kept gushing from his mouth. He raised his hand in despair, as if he wanted to say something. Then his head tilted to one side and he died instantly.
Click.
As soon as the monkey-faced man died, the door to Ye Lin's cell was opened. A tall, thin man, his face completely covered with a hat, mask and sunglasses, walked in.
He grabbed Ye Lin's hair and lifted him up, coldly demanding, "Tell me! Where is it?"
"Where is what?" Ye Lin frantically sacrificed his intestines and blood to cleanse the toxins.
Bang!
The tall, thin man directly slammed Ye Lin's head against the bars. Ye Lin felt a deafening roar in his head and stars dancing before his eyes. He almost fainted.
"Stop playing dumb! Ken Sen died at your hands. The key must be with you!"
The tall, thin man's voice was cold and cruel. The dagger in his hand swayed in front of Ye Lin's eyes, glinting with a cold light.
"Hand over the key you got from Ken Sen. I'll let his death go. If you keep pretending to be stupid, I'll gouge out your eyes first."
Ye Lin was at a loss for words. To avoid leaving any evidence or traces, he didn't take anything from the underground black market. Even if there was a key, he had burned it to ashes.
But now, he couldn't show any abnormality. Otherwise, this tall, thin man would surely be ruthless. Then he would either expose the secret of his immortality or be blind for the rest of his life.
"Try it if you dare!" Ye Lin gritted his teeth and stared at the tall, thin man. "The key is with me! But not on me! If you touch me, I guarantee you'll never find that key!" ?
