Chapter 119
After Shen Yue called for No. 14, the scene noticeably quieted down.
The troublemakers had disappeared, leaving only a few people dining.
The diners, just like Shen Yue and Ma Sha, were seated in the middle of Building 1, while the inmates from Building 2 stood guard around them.
Most of the Building 2 inmates were standing, seemingly not granted the privilege to dine simultaneously with those from Building 1.
Under Ma Sha's watchful gaze, Shen Yue took a few bites of each dish and felt satisfied enough to stop.
Even though she wasn't as clever as her older sister, she knew that revealing her preferences in this situation wouldn't be wise, especially considering Ma Sha's warning about the possibility of the food being poisoned.
Ma Sha, on the other hand, seemed completely unconcerned. She continued to enjoy her fries dipped in ketchup with gusto.
As for the other dishes, Shen Yue only picked at a few, displaying clear preferences. However, she couldn't determine for certain whether these flavors were genuine or fake.
Without waiting for Ma Sha, Shen Yue got up and left after finishing her meal. "I'm leaving."
She didn't want to engage in any companionship games in prison. If it weren't for the fact that the people from Building 1 were exempt from following the rules, she would have added a personal rule to refuse any conversation with anyone.
She didn't want anyone to talk to her.
After seeing Shen Yue leave, Ma Sha quickly finished off the remaining ketchup on her hands and hurriedly caught up with her. "Little Yuyu, wait for me. It's not safe for you to be alone outside..."
Ma Sha's words trailed off as she noticed that Shen Yue's prison guard, No. 14, was waiting for her not far away, and the two of them were leaving together.
The inmates from Building 1 had broad privileges—so broad that, apart from leaving the prison and harming other Building 1 inmates, the prison would accommodate almost any request.
Requests like using a prison guard as a personal bodyguard were naturally permissible, although hardly anyone would do so.
Prison guards were the ones who conveyed the situation of the inmates to the outside world. No one wanted to have their watchers by their side. In fact, some inmates went as far as bribing one after another to gain control over a guard and ultimately turning them into a disabled tool confined in their own room, serving as a means to deceive the outside world.
So, which type was Shen Yue? Was she the kind who wanted to deceive the outside world, or the kind who accepted reality?
As Ma Sha pondered, she changed her mind about calling out to Shen Yue and slowly returned to her seat, eating her food bite by bite.
However, all the dishes she ate now were the ones Shen Yue hadn't touched while she was there.
This roommate of hers was quite interesting, but Ma Sha needed to observe her a bit more.
Shen Yue had No. 14 accompany her until she reached Building 1, and then she told him what she wanted to eat tomorrow before letting him leave.
From then on, she spent her time in the room with only a bed and a table, memorizing all the requirements from each building's manual.
If Building 2 consisted of assassins and protectors, then Building 3 was the information provider.
In other words, Shen Yue understood this matter solely based on her observations and fragments of conversation.
It was truly remarkable. She was indeed that person's sister.
...
In Building 4, Tang Yi had just finished his door-opening task and was about to return to the 36th floor to get some more sleep when he encountered a group of people heading out.
As Tang Yi glanced over, someone immediately stepped forward to explain, "Boss, the person we reported to you yesterday, she openly embarrassed us in the cafeteria and disrupted the 34th floor's murder ritual. She is now on her way to Building 3 with only Inmate 14 as her companion. It's a perfect opportunity to take action and teach her a lesson."
Tang Yi wasn't particularly interested. There were always some fools who thought they could disregard the rules and act like prison emperors, flaunting their power and authority.
Those idiots would learn their place after being taught a lesson a few times.
But then he heard the words "prison guard," and not just any prison guard.
"So she arrived yesterday, and she doesn't have any other protectors with her today?" Tang Yi asked.
"No, based on the information from Block 3, she already knows the rules of all the blocks, but she still hasn't chosen a protector. And yesterday, within an hour, she discovered the existence of private rules. She's clever. To ensure nothing goes wrong, we're preparing a team of fifteen this time," the response came.
Block 4 housed meticulous serial killers. Facing just one person was already intimidating, let alone fifteen.
However, Tang Yi shook his head. The weaker the enemy appeared, the stronger they might actually be.
"Wait a moment. Let me first find out who her guarantor is," Tang Yi said as he contacted the person in charge of Block 3. After some bargaining, he obtained the information he wanted.
"The confidentiality level of her guarantor's information exceeds the highest level currently available. Even my assets aren't enough to buy this information."
As soon as the words were spoken, the previously restless inmates of Block 4 instantly grew calm.
If that was the case, they needed to plan carefully.
"Let's send a few people today to gather some information," Tang Yi suggested.
"I'll go too," he added.
After taking a couple of steps, Tang Yi turned back and glanced at a certain familiar face in the crowd. He smiled and said, "You don't need to go. I just managed to save you from Block 14. Do you really want to go and meet your death today?"
The population of Block 4 was dwindling, and the newcomers were all trash that he couldn't care less about. They either lacked intelligence or physical strength.
Number 34, the commodity who dared to wander outside with just a prison guard, better not disappoint me.

The reason for today's single update is that I had diarrhea and couldn't leave the restroom. May heaven have no diarrhea—just an exit.
