Chapter 5: The Siege

After chatting for a while, Wei Chiliang also officially joined the labor. Logically speaking, each team should complete 50 tasks out of 300 tasks, but in practice, it is impossible to distribute the tasks equally.

The leader of their group is undoubtedly Xu Sanbao, and the team leader has the privilege of assigning tasks, so of course he can be lazy openly. Wei Chiliang thought that Qian Heng was the one who was bullied the most, but when he inquired, he found out that Xiao Shi alone took on 30% of the task. It's just that he was not forced by Bao Ye, but because his work efficiency was too high.

Little Rock turned 20 last week, but he's been in the theft business for seven years.

At the age of thirteen, he learned "theft techniques" from his own uncle, and at the age of fourteen, he followed the gang to major tourist attractions in major cities across the country to steal. However, after being used as a tool for so many years, Xiaoshi himself has not saved anything. All the stolen things had to be handed over to the public, and the money he finally got was only enough to solve the problem of food and clothing.

At the beginning of 2015, Xiao Shi's theft gang, the nest, was taken by the police, and the three leaders, including his own uncle, were all arrested. Xiao Shi was lucky to escape the catastrophe and took the opportunity to fly solo, but the first "business" he took over had an accident. He steals a beautiful girl's phone, only to accidentally find an indecent photo of the girl in the phone. Stealing the phone then turns into blackmail, which in turn escalates into intentional injury and attempted rape. Then, he was wanted by the police, ran away, and ran in.

When he first went to prison, Xiao Shi was bullied by Bao Ye and Wang Bald, and these things were also "interrogated" many times before he asked. He has always been embarrassed and embarrassed to confess, and sure enough, after he said it, he was teased by everyone for a long time. But after so many years of work, he has no other skills, his fingers are surprisingly dexterous, and he can do manual work with one top two.

When Wei Chiliang didn't come, the number of tasks in the four groups was two hundred and fifty, and from today onwards, it will become three hundred. Wei Chiliang only wanted to complete the task quickly and go to the canteen to eat, and worked desperately with his head down, and as a result, his work efficiency almost surpassed that of the model worker Xiaoshi, which made Xu Sanbao and others not surprised.

At 12 o'clock in the afternoon, the prisoners, led by the prison guards, went to the cafeteria on the fourth floor to eat.

When Wei Chiliang first came to this place, he didn't expect much from the food in prison. However, he is not picky at all now, after all, he has been hungry for more than twenty hours, and as long as he can fill his stomach, he is already thankful.

However, when it was his turn to cook, he was immediately dumbfounded as soon as he saw the contents of the plate, the standard three dishes and one soup, meat and vegetable matching, and the appearance was also good, this configuration was even better than the canteen when he was studying. No wonder these prisoners have been locked up in this kind of ghost place all year round without complaining too much, and the feeling is that the "organization" has sealed their mouths with food.

For some prisoners, it is better to be locked up here and have food and drink freely than to live a life of outlaw and precariousness in the outside world.

After preparing the meal, Wei Chiliang took the plate to find a place. He deliberately avoided Xu Sanbao's group and sat down in an inconspicuous corner.

From time to time, several of the prisoners next to him looked at him with a strange look, as if they were full of curiosity about him. But before he found out the details, no one came to find fault, and no one took the initiative to talk to him, as if he was a no*, and there would be unexpected dangers if he approached without permission.

Faced with these eyes that seemed to be looking at monsters, Wei Chiliang chose to ignore them. He just wanted to be alone and finish his lunch undisturbed.

At noon each day, except for meal breaks, prisoners have an hour to spend free time. Some people go back to their cells to rest, while others stay in the common room on the B4 floor to play cards and chess. Although Wei Chiliang temporarily filled his stomach, his physical strength did not fully recover. He casually walked around the atrium on the fourth floor, intending to go back to his cell to catch up on sleep.

There are two stairs to choose from from the minus four to the minus two floors, and cell No. 4 is very close to one of the stairs, and if Wei Chiliang wants to go back, he naturally has to pass through there.

I barely saw anyone along the way. When Wei Chiliang came to the staircase platform on the second and a half floors, he suddenly noticed that the atmosphere around him was a little strange. He glanced back and forth, and saw a dozen prisoners approaching the platform where he was from the stairs above and below.

Xu Sanbao led the group of people above, and Wang Bald led the group of people below. There were a few familiar faces in the crowd, but most of them were people he didn't know. Wei Chiliang didn't have to think about it to immediately understand what was going on.

With Bao Ye's status in prison, many prisoners came to serve with a few casual shouts. In the current situation, even if he really has three heads and six arms, he may not be able to get out. Thinking of this, Wei Chiliang's heart instantly cooled.

Anyway, it's death horizontally and vertically, so it's better to put down a few to boost your morale first. Thinking like this, Wei Chiliang reflexively kicked a prisoner who had just climbed the stairs back to the floor below.

Everyone was shocked when they saw this, but they didn't expect him to dare to strike first, single-handedly and unarmed. It seems that the rumors are right, this guy is really not a powerful character that anyone can easily provoke. Before everyone could react, Wei Chiliang had already choked the neck of the second attacker with one hand, and at the same time slammed the third person's chest with the elbow of the other hand. The scene suddenly became intense, and more and more people began to join in the melee.

Xu Sanbao crossed his arms and watched all this from above, still very calm on the surface, but in his heart he had to sigh at Yu Chiliang's performance. But he has nothing to worry about, after all, there are so many people supporting him, and the results are clear at a glance. Although Wei Chiliang still has the upper hand now, how can he be able to defeat the dozen or so vicious outlaws with his strength alone. Xu Sanbao made up his mind today and will not give up if he does not beat Wei Chiliang to his knees and beg for mercy.

After a while, Wei Chiliang's body began to hang colors. Due to the excessive physical exertion, his movements gradually became sluggish. The people who came were all guys who didn't know what to do, and there were very few people who could really fight, but he couldn't stand the large number of opponents.

He knew very well in his heart that he was afraid that he would lose this fight today. But there is no shame in losing, it is shame to beg for mercy, and he can't be ridden on top of his head by this group of scum no matter what. While anxiously thinking about countermeasures, he secretly cursed in his heart: Where the hell have the prison guards run away now? When they were fine, they were always seen wandering around, but when they were about to die, none of them were nowhere to be found.

Just when he was disheartened and ready to go out and fight with them, an unexpected person suddenly appeared at the staircase of the negative third floor. The man didn't step forward to stop the brawl, but just shouted at the crowd, "Stop! If you don't want to be confined, get out of here. ”

When the prisoners heard his voice, they all stopped what they were doing, looked at each other for a few seconds, and all of them scattered and fled.

Xu Sanbao was unwilling, pointed at Wei Chiliang's nose and said viciously: "You wait for me, we will ...... next time" Before the words were finished, Wang Bald and Xiaoshi hurriedly dragged him to evacuate the scene.

Seeing the scumbags leave one after another, Wei Chiliang suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. He wiped his nosebleed, gasped and asked, "Why are you here?" When they see you, it's like they've seen a ghost, who are you? ”

Zhong Xin didn't answer him, just walked up the stairs slowly, came to him, looked at him coldly and said, "No matter who is right or wrong in today's matter, I hope you can take care of yourself in the future and try to be optimistic about your little life." I hate you, but if you die in such a mess, I'm afraid it's not easy for me to explain to the above. ”

"What?" Wei Chiliang didn't understand what Zhong Xin meant for a while, frowned suspiciously, and asked, "Can you explain the last sentence well, what do you want to say?" ”

"To put it simply, someone wants me to secretly watch your life. I shouldn't have told you this, but if you don't say it, I'm afraid that you don't know how to cherish your life, and in the end it's me who will be in trouble. After saying this, Zhong Xin continued to walk upstairs without looking back, as if nothing had happened just now, and he just passed by here unintentionally.

Wei Chiliang's brows furrowed even tighter, and he couldn't figure out anything about Zhong Xin's explanation. Why would anyone want to protect him in such a ghost place where birds don't poop? He's obviously just a demon who kills people without blinking, what's the use of protecting him? Thinking about it, he quickly chased after him and shouted to Zhong Xin: "You wait! ”

Zhong Xin stopped, didn't look back, and asked in a tone without any emotion, "What else do you have to do?" ”

"Whoever told you to do this, you make it clear before you leave."

"It's a secret, no comment."

"You ......" Wei Chiliang clenched his fists depressedly and continued to ask, "Then can you tell me what kind of place you are here?" ”

"Of course, the place where prisoners are held is a prison!"

"You're lying." Wei Chiliang shouted these three words without any scruples. Zhong Xin slowly turned around at this time, revealing a surprised expression, "Oh? Is there any basis for what you say? ”

"It's a secret, no comment." Wei Chiliang replied to Zhong Xin with the same words, and there was obviously a provocative element in his words.

Zhong Xin was choked by this sentence, and felt a little unhappy in his heart. However, after a while, he smiled uncharacteristically and said, "It seems that yours is indeed not the same as them, and I am now starting to be a little interested in you." ”
