Chapter 190: Directly Destroying Her Soul
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Yue Xin ran away with the food. Maya chased after her. Even if she was injured, her physical fitness was much stronger than Yue Xin’s. Yue Xin couldn’t escape at all. She had no choice but to hide as she stuffed the food on her plate into her mouth.
In the end, Yue Xin cried from the spiciness. Maya looked at the empty plate and cried too. In the end, she could only hold the plate and smell it for a long time.
Maya’s body was almost fully recovered, so she pulled Yue Xin to work out. Yue Xin’s daily life became like recording the patients’ conditions in Building No. 6 during the day and exercising with Maya in the afternoon. Soon, it was the end of the year.
In prison, living a repetitive life every day was the most fulfilling period of Yue Xin’s life.
On the night of New Year’s Eve, the prisoners in the prison had a rare interface for revelry. They gathered together and refused to leave for a long time.
Yue Xin and Maya made dumplings with beef filling.
“Happy New Year, Little Xinxin!” Maya’s hair fell over her shoulders, and her oversized pajamas made her look very languid. She held up a dumpling to Yue Xin, and the smile on her face was infectious, like a ray of sunlight tearing through all the darkness.
“Happy New Year, Maya.”
After Su Yu heard the information from Building 3, he gently put down the glass of red wine in his hand. He opened the diary and flipped to the day he met Yue Xin. He rubbed the date on it with his hand.
“Yue Xin, everything is ready. I’ll be able to fulfill the agreement with you soon. Speaking of which, he really didn’t check his salary. Anyway, he couldn’t spend it all. There was still some time before Yue Xin left Building 1. He could use this time to get the prison to give him a salary.”
A few days after the new year, the person in charge of Building No. 2 changed. The person in charge was parachuted in and the prison head appointed the person with the highest mission completion rate to take over. Leng Chen was lowered from the 36th floor to the 35th floor and was forced to choose between being the assassin and protector.
When Maya told Yue Xin about this, she realized that Yue Xin didn’t care at all.
She deliberately asked, “Do you know why the prison did this?”
Yue Xin picked up Maya’s underwear and threw it into the laundry basket. She replied, “The hero effect. Apart trom the assassins sent in trom the outside world, there are also many criminals who work for money. Those mercenaries who don’t have any support abandoned their identity and value under the hero effect and chose Leng Chen without any conditions. This makes the identity of the protector of Building No. 2 meaningless.”
Just like the betrayal of Maya’s previous protector, if the prisoner in Building No. 1 was skeptical of the loyalty of the protector, the prison would lose a large sum of income. This was unacceptable for the prison and the people outside.
The delicate balance between the prison’s eight buildings would be broken, so Leng Chen no longer held power. He had to choose a faction to join.
Maya was not surprised by Yue Xin’s answer. Ever since she started teaching Yue Xin some things, she realized that not only did Yue Xin have a good memory, but she was also very good at analyzing and understanding when she thought about it seriously. However, for some reason, she always felt inferior.
All Maya could do was patiently encourage her. “Good analysis. My Xinxin is amazing!”
The corners of Yue Xin’s mouth curled up slightly, but she still said stubbornly, “I’m not powerful.”
Maya told Yue Xin that there was a high chance that someone would attack her soon.
“This change was led by me. According to the sayings of your country, it was to lure the snake out of its hole. In the next few days, there will definitely be people in power who will take advantage of the chaos in Building 2 to attack me. However, you don’t have to worry too much. Leng Chen is actually someone loyal to me. With him protecting me, nothing will happen to me.”
Yue Xin had seen Leng Chen’s strength with her own eyes. He was not at a disadvantage when facing eight people alone. Besides, Maya was very smart. She knew everything about the situation, so Yue Xin did not doubt Maya’s words at all. She nodded obediently and sent the laundry basket to the laundry area to wait for the person in charge of washing clothes to come and get it.
Seeing Yue Xin leave, the smile on Maya’s face instantly disappeared. Building No. 4 wanted to attack Yue Xin, but there was no mission related to Yue Xin in the entire Land of the Fallen. Therefore, in order to make a move, they would definitely lure Yue Xin. She had not thought of a specific method for the time being, nor had she obtained any clues. She could only hurry up and teach Yue Xin how to distinguish lies, how to not be deceived, how to determine whether a person could be used through benefits, and lastly, how to use emotions.
However, no matter how much Maya thought about it, she never expected that the breakthrough point would be set on her. There was no assassination or provocation. Instead, it directly destroyed her soul..
