Huai Shi opened her eyes and saw the snow-white ceiling, the steel railings, the drip hanging beside her, and the steel positioning rings fastened to her feet.

It was obvious that he was lying in prison.

To be precise, in the detention room of the Special Affairs Department, there were no guns or cannons pointed at him, and his soul abilities were not even banned.

No, now Director Fu should be wishing he could quietly escape from prison and run out, right?

In this way, he can happily shoot himself to death for five minutes...

He slowly moved his hands and feet, feeling weak and hungry.

"How long have I been asleep?"

"Two days." Outside the cage, the girl sitting in a wheelchair reading a book replied without raising her head.

"oh."

Huai Shi nodded slowly, yawned, and stood up from the bed. After finally waking up after a long sleep, he felt an indescribable fatigue and sleepiness.

Dimly.

Just as he was gradually waking up, he heard a screaming voice coming from the cell next door: "Let me out! Let me out! I am innocent, I don't know anything!"

He was stunned for a moment and looked at the wall next to him curiously: "Who is next door?"

"Qi Wen's son, Qi Yuan. A good-for-nothing who was frightened when he found out his father was dead. He used a little trick to explain everything."

Even though Qi Yuan was right next to her, Ai Qing's words were not polite at all. She took a deep look at Huai Shi and added: "Thanks to you, although there are some unpleasant things about cleaning up the Qi family,

A small hiccup, but overall it went very smoothly.”

"You're welcome." Huai Shi smiled honestly, "This is what I should do."

"Did you hear what I said to thank you?"

Ai Qing asked indifferently: "If you were really that grateful, you shouldn't have put down the gun and killed Qi Wen in another way.

Attacked Special Branch staff, looted weapons depots, carried out attacks in public places, seriously endangering public safety, and after killing sixteen ordinary people and one Ascendant, tortured and tortured an unconvicted suspect.

After being ravaged, he was lynched to death... Even if the crime he committed was proven through evidence later, it was still a serious overstep of authority and violation.

No matter which one of these is enough, you will be imprisoned in the Trench Prison and serve until death.

And when you were doing these things, you were still nominally an employee of the Astronomical Society, and now the Jinling office has been in a huge quarrel because of your affairs... Do you know how much trouble you have caused me to come here?"

"Well……"

Huaishi was speechless. After a long time, he sighed and lowered his head: "I'm sorry."

"This is truly the most sincere of all your apologies."

Ai Qing gave a sincere "admiration", closed the book in her hand, and asked mockingly: "Then, tell me: after revenge at all costs, what did you gain?"

Huai Shi was silent for a long time, scratching his face in embarrassment.

"I really want to say that revenge will get me nothing, but... to be honest, I'm really happy." After saying that, he couldn't help but clasping his hands together again and begging for mercy: "I'm sorry, I accidentally became a pervert."

He felt that he was abnormal.

Don’t most people feel empty after their revenge is over?

Why do you still feel quite happy?

This isn't quite right...

"I'm not a pervert. Shouldn't it be natural to feel happy for revenge?" Ai Qing glanced at him, "If it were me, I would probably laugh so hard that I shed tears. Maybe it would be even worse than you.

"

Before Huai Shi could breathe a sigh of relief, she continued: "It's just that a fully equipped mercenary team and a second-level ascendant have really amazing results. No, I should say scary...

As your unlucky commander now, should I be surprised by the skills you have shown?" She focused on the title: "Mr. 'Huaihai Road Little Page'."

"..."

Huaishi was speechless. She didn't know whether she should continue to apologize this time. In the end, she could only shrug.

"I know what you want to say, and you don't need to apologize for such boring things. After all, we have been hiding something from each other, haven't we?"

Ai Qing paused and suddenly said: "However, you should really feel sorry for this."

"Um?"

"Qi Wen is just a disposable glove, a dog that can't even decide who to bite."

Ai Qing took a deep breath and said bluntly: "The person who really pushed the Huai family into the fire pit back then should be the current head of the Yin family, my great-grandfather, Yin Xing.

In other words, I am also one of your enemies who ruined your family."

Huai Shi was stunned for a moment, looking at her in astonishment for a long time, then nodded slightly.

There was no anger or shock.

On the contrary, it was like a sudden realization.

"Is that so?"

He scratched his head and finally understood something. Then his eyes widened in shock: "Wait a minute, so your surname is really not Ai?"

"..."

So is this the point?

"Don't you feel any regret at all for not killing me?"

"Then will you regret now that you didn't eradicate the root cause?"

Huai Shi asked calmly: "Although I don't know exactly what happened, but you and your great-grandfather are completely different now, right?

Besides, I just killed a BOSS, and you just told me that there are still two weeks left, but I don’t really have any real feelings about it. Why don’t we go over the details later?”

"..."

Ai Qing did not answer, nor did she try to explain anything. She just sighed softly after being silent for a long time.

"It's meaningless to say anything now, Huai Shi." She shook her head slowly: "Originally, with the convenience provided by the Astronomical Society, you could become stronger, strong enough to sort out all this... Now it seems that,

I may have made a wrong decision from the beginning. I thought I could control your destiny, but in fact I couldn't even control my own destiny.

Now it seems that it is time for this ridiculous delusion to end."

She no longer talked about the topic just now, but returned to Huai Shi herself, like a lawyer: "Although you have the righteousness of blood revenge, your previous actions are still crimes.

Fortunately, the Jinling Branch has not yet characterized this matter, and the Social Security Bureau has not carried out strict investigation. I am afraid that the real trial will not begin until the matter of the Guijing People is over, right?

During this period, I will work hard to help you reduce your sentence.

No matter how bad the situation is, you can transfer to the Social Security Bureau. Depending on your talents and potential, they will probably not care about the mistakes you have made."

As if he was eager to leave, he finished all the next things in one breath, "As for Director Fu, although he was extremely angry, he actually just shouted.

There are no longer a few people in the Special Affairs Department who sympathize with you. Most of the time, they will give you some relief and allow you to maintain some freedom during this period. I hope you can rest here with peace of mind."

"Is there anything else you need?" she asked, "If it's not too much, I can bring it over for you."

"Um……"

Huai Shi pondered for a long time and asked sheepishly: "Can I play the piano? If I don't practice it for too long, I'm afraid I'll become a handicap player."

"that's it?"

"that's it."

So Ai Qing nodded.

It's time for her to go.

But before turning the wheelchair, she suddenly said, "I have one more question."

"You ask."

"Why did you choose to stay at the Astronomical Society?" She looked into Huai Shi's eyes and asked solemnly: "You should know at least in your heart that even without me, nothing will happen to you, right? Why bother with the Astronomical Society?

Where's the trouble?"

"have no idea."

Huai Shi answered straightforwardly, but Ai Qing obviously did not accept the answer and still looked at him calmly until he finally came to a conclusion after scratching his head and thinking for a long time.

"If there must be a reason, it should be you."

"Me?" Ai Qing was almost amused by this answer, "Because you fall in love with a crippled woman? Is there something wrong with your aesthetics? Or do you like a special way of playing?"

"No no no..."

Huai Shi waved her hands hurriedly, "I just...envy you very much."

He looked at the girl outside the cage and said seriously, "Because you look very courageous."

In the silence, Ai Qing said nothing, as if she was stunned.

He just looked at her with a complicated look.

After a long while, he slowly shook his head.
To be continued...
