Chapter 78: Chapter 75: Do We Need to Have Met Before to Encounter Each Other?

Huh?

The willows on the branches are blowing less again?

This question reminded Li Yunlong of something, Jiang Xiao mentioned it countless times when he was in the mental hospital.

It seems, it seems to be...

Got it!

Jiang Xiao happily picked up his pen to write again.

2. The willows on the branches are blowing less again, (I’m not good at running.)

Exactly.

Extremely familiar!

That’s the flavor, it should be pretty close.

3. The moon is similar to ancient times, (I can’t read.)

Great, here comes the zone.

Jiang Xiao was now writing as if inspired by the gods!

The pen flew across the paper!

4. Mooring by the Qinhuai River near a tavern, (One-on-two assassination training.)

5. A million strong troops crossing the big river, (Each man with a machine gun.)

6. Hanshan’s appearance, (Crooked gear, Type 92!)

7. Youth doesn’t know the taste of sorrow, (What’s the equipment of my battalion?)

Nice!

Who says our old Li is a crude dude?

His pen game is no worse than a political commissar’s!

This question mark is truly a stroke of genius!

Li Bing shook his head uncertainly.

Could it be that Jiang Xiao was really a regiment leader outside?

Shouldn’t the Prison Director say something about Jiang Xiao’s so-called mental illness, like post-war traumatic stress disorders or something?

These questions were answered.

Li Bing’s brain was in total disarray, his cerebellum sticky!

And Jiang Xiao, without even pausing, quickly finished the rest.

8. Thread in the hands of a loving mother, (Always unsheathe your sword when encountering an enemy!)

9. Suddenly like a traveler, (A bear among men.)

10. Qingshan lays across the north nest, (Drive the bears out.)

Done writing, that’s it!

ｸﾞｯ!(๑•̀ㅂ•́)و✧

Just ten questions, easy as pie!

Li Bing looked at the test paper with a terrified expression, and then utterly baffled, he looked at the proud face of Jiang Xiao.

No way?

Dude, what’s with the smug look on your face?

You don’t think you got them all right, do you?

Not a single one correct!

Okay, although at first glance it seems kind of smooth...

But in reality, none of them were correct!

How can we still implement my plan with the Prison Director?

Really confine him to solitary?

I’m not ashamed to admit, Li Bing thought he was no match for the man standing before him.

Resigned, he had to temporarily retreat and think of another plan.

Li Bing: (٥▀ʖ̯▀)

"Warden Jiang, you should read the booklet I gave you more often, your test... still doesn’t cut it."

After saying that, the deputy director beneath one man sighed and left.

The figure bent at the waist was full of hardship, as if he had aged twenty years in an instant.

What’s so good about a study booklet?

What use is it to me?

Fighting is what really counts!

Scholars might be cultured, but can culture drive the enemy away?

I refuse to learn; learning a few characters is even more tiresome than fighting.

"Da Yong, after we eat, we continue training!"

"Yes, boss!"

Jiang Xiao didn’t linger here but made his way straight to the Prison Director’s office.

Yes, that very Prison Director who had been elusive.

The rules say the Prison Director is the boss of this prison and may inspect it unannounced.

But with all the commotion he’s caused, why is this guy playing dead?

...

At this time, the chosen ones from other countries noticed that the prisoners seemed different.

Why do they seem a bit listless?

Not just the prisoners; even some of the chosen ones felt their nerves go numb.

Something isn’t right...

Nai Zixue had already washed her face with cold water for the third time today.

"Huff~"

After washing, she leaned weakly against the bathroom door.

"What’s going on, why is my head so groggy, didn’t sleep well last night?"

It made sense to attribute the headache and brain fog to last night’s lack of sleep, given the eerie things.

But what’s with the prisoners?

Their mental state seemed off too, all of them listless.

Nai Zixue gathered her emotions, feeling it was better to ask.

"Weird noise? No, I had a sweet sleep last night."

"Strange singing? Miss Nai Zixue, please don’t scare us."

"We’re listless? Uh, aren’t you the one who’s listless?"

Is that so?

At that moment, the deputy Prison Director appeared with the test papers.

"Alright, today’s test starts now, everyone, get ready."

The papers weren’t much more difficult than yesterday’s, and Nai Zixue answered them with ease.

But...

"Hisss!"

Nai Zixue weakly rubbed her swollen, aching forehead.

But her head started to hurt even more, as if someone was hammering away at her temples with a blunt mallet.

Nai Zixue had once experienced a fever of forty degrees Celsius, and her current condition was just as bad.

Perhaps even worse!

Though she didn’t know what was happening, if things kept going this way,

she doubted she could last seven days.

Her own body, the changes in the prisoners.

What exactly was the problem?

...

Cherry Blossom Country noticed that there was something wrong with their chosen one and became somewhat panicked.

"Damn it, what should we do now? How about we pass on the strange things that Jiang Xiao saw last night to Nai Zixue?"

Some proposed, others rejected.

"What’s the point of telling Nai Zixue? Even someone as strong as Jiang Xiao couldn’t find a way to break the situation, not to mention Nai Zixue."

Though harsh, this statement was logical.

Jiang Xiao’s strength was evident to everyone.

"Let’s wait a bit more! Wait until Jiang Xiao finds new clues!"

...

Dragon Country also had people lurking in the live streams of other countries and thus brought back some intelligence.

Director Wang led a group of experts into the long-sealed conference room.

"Gentlemen, what do you think?"

"I think, there’s something off about this prison, and the rules from the beginning stated that, but it probably got ignored by most people."

"This Hengshui Prison has a high casualty rate, you are a commissioner warden newly transferred from outside to investigate the abnormalities of this prison, and staying here seems to induce confusions of the mind..."

"Clearly, staying longer could cause mental confusion."

"Yes, I noticed that, but it seems this won’t affect our Jiang Xiao."

"And, I think there’s something fishy about this examination."

"The examination doesn’t matter, Jiang Xiao isn’t afraid."

"Right, the main issues now are twofold."

"First: the mysterious Prison Director hasn’t shown himself."

"Second: the source of the prisoners’ strange behavior at night hasn’t been found."

These two issues are of utmost importance as of now.

Thinking about the eerie scene from last night made many people’s hearts chill.

"Shall we send this information to Jiang Xiao?"

"No, this doesn’t explain anything, let’s wait and see for a bit longer, this Kaidan... is not simple."

While it wasn’t as dangerous as a mental asylum, so far it seemed no one had any leads.

There definitely was a big secret hidden here!

Dragon Country and Cherry Blossom Country chose the same approach, which was to wait and watch.

From the current information, the prisoners’ strange actions at night didn’t explain anything.

Yet, several countries had informed their chosen ones about the things Nai Zixue and Jiang Xiao had discovered.

Their powers were weak, and they couldn’t afford to wait.

...

At this moment, Jiang Xiao had reached the Prison Director’s door while following the staircase.

Hearing the stillness inside, Jiang Xiao, unlike previous times, decided not to turn back and knocked.

’Knock, knock, knock~’

There was instant silence inside.

Then there was a bout of irate scolding!

"Li Bing! Are you trying to get yourself killed? Why do you always interrupt me at the most critical moments?"

Jiang Xiao: ...

"Prison Director, it’s me, the new warden, Jiang Xiao."

Then Jiang Xiao heard a flurry of rustling sounds from inside the room.

And then silence again.

"Jiang... Jiang Xiao, is that it, what’s up?"

The previously irate voice immediately softened, even sounding somewhat ingratiating.

"Oh, I have some matters to discuss with you."

"Why don’t you just speak from outside, I’m listening."

Hisss...

This Prison Director’s voice sounds familiar?

’Creak~’

Without as much as a greeting, Jiang Xiao pushed open the door.

Inside was the Prison Director who hadn’t even properly dressed.

At the sight of Jiang Xiao, the Prison Director’s body turned rigid.

Previous pleasant memories surfaced in his mind.

"Director, use nails, yes! Just like what you did to Pai Daxing! Smash hard!"

"No, I don’t think so, I think you can hang out with me all day just like SpongeBob!"

"What? Director, what did you say? It’s too dark here, I can’t hear you clearly! Can you speak louder?"

"Oh, you’re the ruffian boss."

"No, he is Mr. Krabs!"

"Director, you have to catch him! Hold on tight, really tight!"

"Wrong, I’m known as Pai Daxing!"

Jiang Xiao interrupted the Prison Director’s tragic memories.

"Sorry, Prison Director, I’m a bit of a brute, I didn’t know you were busy. Maybe I should step out?"

Hmm?

Wang Dayong’s expression suddenly changed!

What’s going on?

Does this madman recognize me?

And, his current state doesn’t seem like that weird and nonsensical Dr. Pai Daxing anymore?

Realizing this, the Prison Director immediately nodded.

"Um, yeah, alright, I’m really busy, you should... you should step out for now."
