I am Fu Chang, and I am the person in charge of this case. ”

Across from the transparent inspection glass made of special metal, a police officer in a crisp uniform that he had never seen before in his memory sittened. The small room seems to be connected to a sound transmission hole, and the sound on the other side can be clearly transmitted through the seemingly airtight wind.

The officer looked at the prisoner sitting in the cramped compartment and paused. "First of all, I have to say, unfortunately, the time for your second chance to appeal has passed, so it is still a bit difficult to overturn this judgment."

"But," he leaned forward slightly, his eyes fixed on the prisoner sitting across from him through a layer of transparent metal. "I've read your case report and found a lot of suspicions and hidden truths. I have a way for you to have your sentence commuted or even regain your innocence, as long as you cooperate with my investigation. ”

Next, he took the opportunity to analyze some loopholes or room for reversal of this verdict, so as to prove the true feasibility of his remarks. Qiu Xuan sat in place and listened quietly to all his words, and suddenly said, "I seem to have seen you somewhere." ”

Fu Yan had just the right amount of surprise on her face, "Oh, is it? Where is it? ”

"It's just noon today," Qiu Xuan leaned back in her chair. "Didn't you keep watching me the whole time on the way back from the infirmary?"

The two looked at each other silently for nearly half a minute, and finally Fu Yan spread her hands and said without any emotion: "Your perception is very keen." ”

"So, I'm assuming we have a consensus?" The officer, who didn't look very old, raised his hand and knocked on the marble tabletop, "Then that time just now doesn't count, let's get to know each other again, I'm Fu Yan, it's a pleasure to meet you." You must know that I will help you overturn the case and reduce the sentence, and you will help me investigate the truth, it is a win-win thing, and I can't think of a reason for you to refuse. ”

Qiu Xuan: "You're happy too early. ”

"And, officer, what's the truth about this?" She continued, "It may sound strange to you, but the guilt I've committed is really just a literal 'crime,' a name that would allow me to go to federal prison." ”

Fu Yan frowned, "What do you mean by that?" ”

"Of course I can't tell you the specifics, I can only say that you have found the wrong person. Because for me, it doesn't matter what crime I came in, the point is that I need a 'crime' to get me to prison, and it doesn't matter what that crime is. Do you understand what I mean by that? ”

The sharp eyes of the police officer who looked up solemnly locked on Qiu Xuan, who was sitting opposite, and after confirming that the other party really had no intention of joking, he sneered absurdly and briefly. "Do you know what you're talking about? No matter who you are, once you actually go to federal prison, you will never be able to return to a normal life! ”

Qiu Xuan smiled, not knowing what she was referring to. "But isn't that what everybody is?"

Fu Yan took off her uniform hat very roughly, and slammed it on the marble table in front of her, as if she was choked with anger. He sat on the chair in the prison visit room and took several deep breaths, barely calming down his emotions before he said, "Okay, it's all my fault, it's me who has enough to take care of the affairs of you social scum." There are also the old brutes in the property management bureau who don't work with their salaries, and if the Poseidon loses his heart, this kind of thing can be downplayed and closed without being responsible......"

He stood up abruptly, raising his hand to call the guards who had come to visit the cell.

A palm suddenly pressed against the glass window in front of him.

Fu Yan was stunned for a moment, and when she heard the voice, she saw that the prisoner who had been acting inconspicuously stood up from the chair, and finally had a little exposed emotion when he put his palm on the transparent glass.

"What did you just say you lost?"

She was separated by several layers of special metal openings, and her voice was somewhat distorted through the special transmission holes. The officer paused, then turned back and picked up his uniform cap from the countertop.

"How could you not know that you stole something? Even if I know the dossier and know that there is a secret in it, maybe you have been framed, but you must have something to do with it. ”

Qiu Xuan shook her head and didn't reply to this sentence positively, but insisted on asking again. "What did you say you lost? …… Poseidon heart? ”

"Yes, the heart of the Leviathan."

The palm of his hand slid down from the transparent glass, and Qiu Xuan sat back on the hard chair, and his brain was a little stiff for a while. She bit her tongue to help herself calm down, and after a while, she spoke in a low voice.

"I can help you, you tell me all about the case that you know."

……

Leviathan's heart was lost, but the Leviathan here was not the god of the original sin incarnation in the world of the Ship of Fools in Qiu Xuan's cognition. Or rather, not exactly.

The level of scientific and technological social development in the world she is in now should be regarded as in the middle of the stream, neither ahead nor backward, if you have to have a reference, it is probably equivalent to the original earth after another century of development.

Countries in the world adopt a federal system, and in addition to the supreme people's law, which respects the federal government, the states adopt their own laws, and it can be said that the degree of freedom is quite high. With the continuous development of technology, the number of religious believers has gradually decreased, or it can be said that except for a very small number of areas that are still religious, the traces of so-called "gods" have almost disappeared from this continent.

And the old god Leviathan in Fu Chang's mouth is actually just a symbol in more sense.

The various gods and goddesses in the rumored canon of the past are still preserved as a historical testimony in the semi-open pavilion of the country's supreme federal government. The Leviathan, the most distinctive, or perhaps the most detailed of the surviving histories, is stored in the supposedly heavily guarded center as the hallmark.

It was a giant snake that almost covered the first floor of the pavilion, and countless scurrying wrists, feet and eyes were densely spread all over the body, which made people shudder. It's just that no matter how realistic the technology is, it can't restore the most primitive and indescribable appearance of the gods of the old days, and even the so-called winding snake Leviathan is just a simulation "model" that uses advanced technology and nanomaterials to put together according to the records in the canon.

If it's just a model, it's nothing, the key is that the key to start this "Leviathan", the core technology of the whole model, the "heart" of the sea god, is gone.

That's right, this model of the gods, which is said to represent the crystallization of the federal scientific research organization, can be activated.

Before the key to activation, the core technology known as the "heart of the sea god", was lost, everyone, including the president, always thought that it was just a virtual vase made by researchers who were clamoring to commemorate the historical inheritance of the gods. Oh, it turned out that this model was originally conceived as a secret weapon for war, and then they were worried that this level of technology would not be able to be controlled at all, so they changed it to the current vase viewing mode.

It's just that the original idea has not been completely abandoned, and the Poseidon model still retains some rudiments of war weapons, and the "heart" of the activation key is the best evidence.

Of course, there are also people behind the scenes who say that the weapons of war are just a blind trick on the surface, and the madmen of those scientific research groups originally wanted to use this to summon the real evil god of the sea Leviathan in history.

However, this statement is too utopian and anti-social in today's technology-first society, so few people take it seriously.

In short, as the police officer named Fu Chang and the previous prison warden said, this theft case can be big or small. After all, even if the real thief used the Heart Key to activate the Leviathan, he would not be able to do anything but drive a wandering serpent out into the streets to scare people. However, some high-level officials believe that even if it is a prototype, there is still a shadow of uncontrollable weapons of war in it, so it should not be careless.

To sum up, Qiu Xuan, as a "thief", was sentenced to the notorious federal prison, but it was very paradoxically only sentenced to seven years.

Qiu Xuan: Although it is a little different from what I imagined, but when I look at it this way, the crime of "stealing hearts and thieves" does not seem so earthy.

She digested the information provided by Fu Chang for a while, during which the patrolling guards came in to check on her several times because they had far exceeded the visiting time. But the police officer named Fu Yan seemed to have some privileges, and soon the prison guard only explained a few words and left them alone.

"How's it going, have you thought about it?" Fu Chang said.

Qiu Xuan pushed the tip of her tongue against the inner wall of her mouth, "Almost, I have a question, if I guess correctly, this case has already been judged to be closed by the Supreme Court, right?" ”

Fu Chang frowned, "It's not important, you just have to tell me ......"

"No, no, no, it's important!" Qiu Xuan interrupted him, "Now that I can be sure that the stolen Seagod Heart is not with me, then I will assume that the real thief is not me, but someone else." Judging from what you just said, this case has been closed, and I guess you are unwilling to continue the investigation in private, right? If that's the case, I'd suggest you start with someone on the federal side who is trying to support the closure of the case, most likely because someone covets something or something in the Leviathan model, and the research team is also suspicious, probably wanting to continue researching the so-called weapons of war. ”

The officer looked at her with a somewhat complicated expression.

"Qiu Xuan, you should know that you are the prisoner who was caught and imprisoned by the government as a 'thief of hearts'. Even if I confirm that there is a hidden truth in the case, are you trying to clear your suspicion by doing so now? Also, if you say, 'Suppose the real thief is not you,' what does that mean, and don't you know if the thief is you? ”

I really don't know brother, who knows what kind of identity script was arranged for me in this trial ground.

Qiu Xuan sighed wordlessly in her heart, and could only say: "I can only be sure that I don't have a heart here now, and the others are uncertain." ”

Fu Yan looked like she wanted to say something.

"Alright, you go to work." Qiu Xuan interrupted him and stretched his arm to get up from the chair, "By the way, there is one more thing, do you know a prisoner named Xuanming?" ”

"Xuanming? Haven't heard of it. Even if she seemed to be dissatisfied with Qiu Xuan, after thinking for a while, Fu Yan still answered her. The latter replied and said, "Then you go and investigate his identity, it may also be related to the case." ”

He nodded, noting down the name.

When Qiu Xuan walked out of the visiting cell, it was already past dinner time, and even the curfew time had passed for a long time. The jailer in charge of escorting her told her to be quiet and not to speak, and as they walked through the empty and solemn corridors of the prison, they could only hear the muffled sound of their boots touching the ground as the guards patrolled.

Qiu Xuan thought that she seemed to have triggered the easter egg task.

Regarding the easter egg plot, it is a plot that seems to be independent but is related to the main quest everywhere. Normally, each proving ground can be passed as long as you complete the main story and survive, but in extremely rare cases, the executioner will actively or passively trigger an additional easter egg plot.

At the beginning, she was told by the executioner named Xi Hanting. Qiu Xuan really thought for a moment that she could go on with Xi Hanting, but after all, it was a mistake (...... ）。

In fact, when they were in the Plague Proving Ground, the last part about revealing the identity of "Luoshui" was an easter egg plot, but the identity revelation was so shocking that it was not until they returned to a desperate situation that they could not react until they returned to a desperate situation.

Not counting the experience that is too beyond cognition, generally speaking, if you successfully pass the easter egg plot, there is a great chance of obtaining an opportunity item or ability of extraordinary quality.

In the case of ensuring that he can be alive, Qiu Xuan will definitely fight for it.

When she finally returned to cell D62, her roommates had already turned off the lights and rested as they had done a few days ago. Qiu Xuan tried not to make a sound and went to bed in the dark, and swept her palm next to the pillow only to find that it seemed to be a small package.

She sat up a little and opened the paper bag by the faint moonlight, and found that it was two steamed buns.

Qiu Xuan: ......

Obviously they are the boss, and these people finally know that they have curated favor with the boss to bring dinner, but they only brought two white steamed buns, and they don't know who they are looking down on.

She pursed her lips, rewrapped the steamed bun and threw it into the space, lying down and sleeping with her eyes closed.

In the morning, as always, during the morning exercise time, Qiu Xuan ran forward with Xiang, who ran out and fell straight down without two steps, and said: "I wondered before, obviously you will still not be able to run after five minutes to sit with the queen group to rest, why do you still have to run at the beginning of every day?" ”

Whenever her physical strength is exhausted, Xiang's temper will become very bad, and she will not be angry at this time.
