Quick Transmigration: The Charismatic One - A Sober Fall

"The most direct reason why Huang Jian was able to become a cannibal was the revenge of that beast Gao Yang. Huang Jian's reporting to the police exposed Gao Yang, a collateral relative of the Gao family, which damaged the Gao family's reputation and gave the enemy a handle to use against them. The Gao family was very dissatisfied with Gao Yang because of this, and Gao Yang secretly sent someone to kill Huang Jian's wife."

The death of his young son had already caused Huang Jian immense grief, and upon returning home, his wife also... His once warm and happy family was now empty except for Huang Jian. He then secretly plotted to kidnap Gao Yang...

Tu Mi already knew what happened after that without Jiang Kui explaining it. The case of Huang Jian and Gao Yang was a sensation in the West and even reached Zhongdu.

After kidnapping Gao Yang, Huang Jian cut off pieces of his flesh with a knife, then steamed, boiled, fried, and ate them as sashimi.............

Tu Mi moved his hands, which were bound by iron chains, and lowered his eyes. He recalled the look the cannibal had given him earlier, and felt a mix of emotions. To be honest, he felt that the cannibal had not done anything wrong and had even lost out. Gao Yang, such a beast, must have used this method to kill other innocent people in the past. It was not enough to just torture Gao Yang to death.

He sighed softly, looked up at the neatly arranged prisoners in the distance, and said, "Let's go, time for morning reading."

Jiang Kui kept his gaze fixed on Tu Mi's face and nodded.

Tu Mi held up the note in her hand, read two sentences but couldn't continue. She looked around, then quietly approached Jiang Kui and whispered, "Jiang Kui, I'm a little sleepy. How about you?"

Jiang Kui stood unsteadily, glancing at Tu Mi beside him, and said with a slight smile, "A little."

Tu Mi glanced at the prison guard on the platform, her eyes filled with thought, "What do you suggest I do to avoid morning reading?"

Jiang Kui pondered along with him, but finally shook his head, "I can't figure it out."

Tu Mi thought for a moment and shook his head. There was a way, but it would be difficult to implement. He turned to Jiang Kui and asked, "Can I lean on you for a bit?" After all, they were brothers, so it was normal to lean on each other to take a nap.

Jiang Kui raised an eyebrow. "Sure."

Tu Mi politely said, "Thank you." After speaking, Tu Mi quietly moved closer to Jiang Kui until his shoulder was against Jiang Kui's shoulder, and his body leaned against Jiang Kui. Then, Tu Mi tilted his head and fell asleep in a second.

Jiang Kui lowered his eyes, looking at Tu Mi, whose head was tilted towards him. His gaze traced Tu Mi's color, and his nose twitched slightly. Tu Mi clearly used the same soap as them, so why did Tu Mi smell so good? Strange...

The twins, still face to face and body to body, closed their eyes and fell asleep...

Bai Can, however, had lost his usual gentle and unguarded demeanor; instead, his face was filled with deathly pallor. He stood with his arms crossed, his eyes fixed on the back of the prisoner's head, utterly exhausted…

The prisoner in front of Bai Can: shivering, his head felt so cold~

The prison guard on the platform glanced indifferently at the twins and Tu Mi, then turned his head away, pretending not to see them. He, a mere prison guard, couldn't afford to offend the prisoners on the seventh floor!

The sun hangs high in the sky

Jiang Kui reached out and gently patted Tu Mi's shoulder, whispering, "Tu Mi..."

Jiang Kui saw Tu Mi's eyelashes tremble before he slowly opened his eyes. It seemed that he was not used to the strong natural light. Tu Mi's eyes were half-closed. Then he saw Tu Mi straighten up and pat his shoulder hard. "Thanks, brother."

Jiang Kui shook his head, indicating that he was welcome.

"Morning reading is over."

After morning reading, from 9:00 to 10:30 is the time for the prisoners to exercise. The prisoners will gather in twos and threes in the open space where they read in the morning.

Tu Mi stood rooted to the spot, his nose twitching slightly. What was that smell?! It smelled like cigarette smoke! He followed the scent and saw Bai Can leaning against the iron railing at the top of the stairs, one hand around his waist, the other raised, a cigarette between his index and middle fingers. His thick hair blocked the light, casting a shadow on the upper half of Bai Can's face. His eyes were slightly lowered, and he slowly exhaled a puff of white smoke, blurring his features, but it did not diminish Bai Can's gaze fixed on Tu Mi.

Below Bai Can's position, down the steps to the ground, sat many prisoners, their eyes fixed on Tu Mi and his group with hostility. These prisoners were probably Bai Can's underlings.

On the other side, the twins sat at the bottom of the steps opposite Bai Can. Wu Xing and Wu Zhou sat back to back, one leg slightly bent, sipping their strong liquor, their cheeks flushed. Behind the twins, prisoners sat all the way to the top of the steps, clearly following them.

Scattered around them sat other groups of prisoners, all of whom were intentionally or unintentionally avoiding the twins and Bai Can, for fear of getting into a conflict with them.

Tu Mi withdrew her gaze, ignoring Bai Can's fixed gaze, and led Jiang Kui and the other prisoners toward the platform, blatantly walking between Bai Can and the twins. Both groups of people stared at Tu Mi and the group of prisoners behind her.

The prison guards beside and on the platform saw Tu Mi and the others' actions and unconsciously gripped the electric batons at their waists, watching Tu Mi and the other prisoners warily.

When they were some distance from the platform, Tu Mi made a gesture, indicating that her underlings behind her didn't need to follow her. "Jiang Kui, follow me."

After saying that, Tu Mi led Jiang Kui toward the stage, but they were stopped by the prison guards before they got close to the stage.

The prison guard looked stern. Although Tu Mi was a seventh-floor inmate and received some preferential treatment, a prisoner was still a prisoner, and there were some things he couldn't touch. "Stop! What is it?"

Tu Mi smiled politely at the prison guard and said frankly, "I have a good relationship with the warden."

The prison guard blocking Tu Mi brandished his stun gun and shouted, "I don't care..."

Before he could finish speaking, a prison guard shoved him aside with his buttocks, saying in a friendly tone, "You want to go on stage? Sure, sure."

The prison guard who was pushed out: ? ? ?

Hold! !

Tu Mi raised an eyebrow as he looked at the prison guard who had suddenly appeared in front of him. This prison guard was the one who had helped him pass on a message to the warden last time. He was very clever.

Tu Mi smiled and asked, "What's your name?"

"Wang Qiang, they all call me Qiangzi." After saying that, Wang Qiang smiled honestly, his narrowed eyes hiding the glint in them.

Tu Mi smiled, her eyes holding a deep meaning. Qiangzi...
