Chapter 38: 38. Qing Chenâs Secret (Fifth Update)
In Prison No. 18, the sudden disturbance had scared the prisoners into silence.
Even those who used to enjoy lifting weights began to handle the dumbbells with extra care, afraid to disturb the behemoth in this prison.
In the past, there was only Uncle Li Dong in this prison. Although he couldnât be offended, the good thing was this True God never bothered with anyone.
As long as you knew the rules in his underground world, you wouldnât die.
But now things were different.
Only a fool wouldnât realize that Qingâs Family had no reason to send someone to the prison for no reason.
With Guo Huchan here, Qingâs Family had arrived, heralding a storm.
At the dining table, Guo Huchan also got to eat real beef, wolfing it down, while Qing Chen ate more slowly.
Ye Wan stood behind Uncle Li Dong and suddenly asked Guo Huchan, âStop focusing on eating, was that guy one of yours just now? I heard there are still a few places in the wilderness where they speak a strange language.â

âHeâs not one of us, and that kid doesnât look like heâs from the wilderness,â Guo Huchan said, wiping his shiny mouth: âWhen have you ever seen a wilderness person with such delicate skin?â
âThatâs true,â Ye Wan frowned.
âOur people have already been found by Brother Qing Chen, donât worry about it. Iâm here on my own now!â Guo Huchan said cheerfully: âCan you also get some meat for those five brothers of mine?â
âIs there a shortage of real meat in the wilderness?â Ye Wan said disdainfully.
Guo Huchan sighed, âFacing a corporate raid every other day, who has time to raise livestock? And with two more Taboo Lands in the wilderness almost causing fatalities, the living space isnât as big as you think. Of course, Brother Qing Chen, the food always follows you.â
Qing Chen paused for a moment, Taboo Land, another new term.
It sounded like it had some connection to the Taboo.
Then, Guo Huchan turned and put his arm around Qing Chenâs shoulder, saying, âBrother Qing Chen, why donât you come with me to the wilderness? I canât promise anything else, but with your talent, youâll want for nothing and eat whatever you crave!â
Uncle Li Dong wondered, âAre you so eager to take him to the wilderness? Didnât you see heâs with Qingâs Family? Isnât it better for him to faithfully serve as Qingâs Familyâs shadow than your wilderness?â
âHow can it be the same?â Guo Huchan said dismissively: âThe matter of him being a shadow isnât even certain yet. The shadow selection is extremely dangerous, why take that risk? With me in the wilderness, youâll have everything, why bother with all that effort?â
Uncle Li Dong laughed, âWhat do you have in the wilderness? Why should anyone follow you?â
Qing Chen, on the other hand, said, âHe has the pie he has drawn.â
Guo Huchan: ââŠâ
At that moment, Qing Chen seemed calm, but in reality, he knew best.
Lin Xiaoxiao would be back soon, and he was about to face the most dangerous test of his life.
Although Qing Chen had lived two lifetimes since he transmigrated, he still had no trump cards.
He knew what he was up against, but he couldnât hide.
Nor was there any place to hide.
âŠ
In a corner of Prison No. 18, Lin Xiaoxiao sat in an interrogation room, quietly watching the transmigrator from Sichuan Province, Jian Sheng, across from her.
The interrogation room was dim and murky, with dust floating lazily in the white beams of light from the LED lamp overhead.
Jian Sheng was asleep, and Lin Xiaoxiao had just invaded his dreams with her nightmare ability, only to be rudely awakened by his insultsâŠ
This person is indeed irritable, Lin Xiaoxiao concluded.
To tell the truth, she was a bit curious as to where this talented person had come from, seeing as he was able to hurl insults non-stop for half an hour without repetition.
As Jian Sheng gradually woke up, he saw Lin Xiaoxiao and opened his mouth to curse: âYou son of aâŠâ
âStop,â Lin Xiaoxiao interrupted with a dark face: âDonât talk yet. Just hearing you talk gives me a headache. Canât we have a proper conversation?â
âI ought to box your earsâŠâ
Lin Xiaoxiao: ââŠâ
Just as Jian Sheng was about to continue cursing, Lin Xiaoxiao hurriedly activated his nightmare ability, and Jian Sheng felt another wave of drowsiness coming over him, and he fell into a deep sleep.
âWhat a sin!â Lin Xiaoxiao sighed and turned to walk into the adjoining interrogation room, where Liu Dezhu was sitting shakily inside.
This time, Lin Xiaoxiao didnât waste any words. He directly took Liu Dezhu to see Huang Jixianâs current state.
Huang Jixianâs hands and feet were bound to the bed in the infirmary with alloy locks, one moment he was muttering to himself, and the next, he was struggling violently.
Lin Xiaoxiao said to Liu Dezhu, âSee that? Iâll ask and you answer. If you tell lies, youâll end up like him, got it?â
Liu Dezhu didnât have much backbone, âIâll talk! Iâll talk! Iâm a high school student who crossed over from another parallel universeâŠâ
Seeing that the other party spilled everything like pouring beans from a bamboo tube, Lin Xiaoxiao suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.
If he had known it would be this easy to interrogate this guy, why the hell did he bother with that Jian Sheng!
âWhere is Los Angeles City?â Lin Xiaoxiao asked straightforwardly.
âLos Angeles City is just a city where we live,â said Liu Dezhu.
âHow many of you have crossed over?â
âI donât know, ah, some say a few thousand, others say itâs already over ten thousand.â
Lin Xiaoxiaoâs voice became stern, âWhatâs your purpose for crossing over? Why did you approach Uncle Li Dong, my boss?â
Liu Dezhu was almost in tears, âWe were randomly transported, nobody knew where weâd end up or what identity weâd take on before crossing over. We really had no intention. I approached Uncle Li Dong because someone said that finding Uncle Li Dong in Prison 18 could lead to a career pathâŠâ
This time, he spent a full three hours interrogating Liu Dezhu. During this period, Jian Sheng in the next room woke up three times, cursed at him twenty-seven times, and was knocked out three times again.
Lin Xiaoxiao originally didnât believe in the transmigration events, but everything Liu Dezhu said withstood logical scrutiny.
He believed that Liu Dezhu, the kind of fool who treated bosses like NPCs to be exploited, couldnât have come up with such a logically consistent construction of the Outer World.
So now he had to believe, even if he didnât want to, that Liu Dezhu indeed spoke the truth.
The most inconceivable thing in this human world had truly happened.
The interrogation room seemed to have plummeted into an eternal silence, with Liu Dezhu trembling and not daring to speak.
After a very long time, Lin Xiaoxiao suddenly asked, âHave you ever heard of a song called âFarewellâ?â
Liu Dezhu was also momentarily stunned, âYeah, I know it.â
âIs there a line in it that goes âFriends part, half are scatteredâ?â
âYes, how do you know?â Liu Dezhu asked, puzzled.
A look of relief finally crossed Lin Xiaoxiaoâs face.
He knew.
At this very moment, thousands of transmigrators had come to his Inner World, taking the place of original inhabitants and continuing to live on.
These people came from various backgrounds, and their destinies had only just begun to intertwine due to a strange event.
But that wasnât the most important thing.
The most important thing was that he had discovered the secret of Qing Chen.
