The sharp knife lay quietly in the center of the cell, the polished knife reflecting the light of the fire reflected outside the cell, and the volume of human anatomy half-hidden beside it.

The children were all squatting in their corners, looking at the food truck outside the cell and drooling, although some people did not look at the dagger on the ground, but no one really walked towards the dagger, this situation was expected by Xinghe, these were only half-grown children, Lloyd's words were not enough for them to actually pick up the dagger and stab the stomach of the people around them.

Lloyd's hand was strong, Xinghe's knee was already swollen a large piece, as long as he bent it slightly, it felt like a pinprick, he rolled up his trouser leg high, then tore a strip of cloth from his clothes and sat down to bandage it simply.

The pain made Xinghe sweat a lot, which made him want to drink water very much now, and there was clear water less than a meter away from him outside the railing, which had to be said to torture him. He swore that if he had the chance, he would beat Lloyd hard.

The physical pain and hunger, coupled with the mental torture inflicted on Xinghe by the aroma of food wafting in from time to time, made his mind a little unclear, and he couldn't understand that if Lloyd was just trying to force them to pick up the dagger, there could have been a more effective method.

"Ahh

Tuka and the Demon Spirit Boy came to the railing one step ahead of him, and the three of them craned their necks outward, but there was only a limit to what they could see, which made Xinghe even more anxious, and he shouted in the direction of Anton and Arazuki, "Fatty, Satsuki, what's going on?"

"I don't know, it seems to be coming from next door to me...... Oh my God!" Anton suddenly exclaimed.

"Fatty, what's wrong?" Xinghe shouted outside, grabbing the railing, but before Anton could answer him, he got an answer.

A stout Snow boy staggered over, hunched over, staring blankly ahead, a sickly look on his blue cheeks, a little saliva on his mouth, and fresh blood on his hands and clothes, and he almost threw himself into the food truck, grabbing the food from it with bloodied hands and stuffing it into his mouth.

The bright red color gave Xinghe an unbearable stimulus, and he couldn't help but clutch the railing and retched, only for a moment, he felt his whole body tremble involuntarily, and he bit one of his arms hard, forcing himself not to think about it.

After the Snow boys, eight children came out timidly, cautiously approaching the food truck, and when they found that the Snow boy had ignored them, they joined the gobble group.

The sound of them swallowing food seemed so tempting and so annoying, even if Xinghe covered his ears with his hands, those sounds were still pervasive, ** him.

He simply sat down with his back against the railing, not looking outside, but in doing so, he saw the faces of the children in his cell, who looked enviously at the children outside, and swallowed unconsciously.

Xinghe's reaction was quick, and before anyone could notice, he jerked the dagger on the ground, then limped back to the railing with it in his hand.

The children in the same cell moved all at once, some of them took a few steps back, some of them took a few steps forward, but one thing was the same, they were all staring at Xinghe and the dagger in his hand.

Xinghe looked at them, and after making sure that they couldn't reach him for a while, he turned around and threw the dagger far away, throwing it into a place where they would never be able to reach it.

After he lost his dagger, the demon boy rushed up and grabbed the hem of Xinghe's coat and yelled, "What did you do?"

Xinghe, who was in a weakened state, was powerless to resist him, and responded to him weakly, "They killed a man, with that dagger. ”

The boy looked back at the other children in the room and saw that they were all looking at him, so he let go of his hand and let Xinghe fall to the ground, clutching his throat and coughing loudly.

The boy looked at the dagger on the outside of the cell, somewhat unwillingly, the sound of the children eating outside the railing enjoying the food spread like a spell, tormenting everyone, the boy stood on the railing for a while and then walked back, "Very good, you threw the dagger out here, then how can we get out, your sister and your friends are also outside!"

The boy probably just complained casually, and after he finished speaking, he went to kick the iron railing again, but for Xinghe, it was like a blow to the head, he suddenly got up from the ground, grabbed the railing and looked out, the food on the food truck had been ruined, but it was still full of ** for them who were still in the cell.

Under this **, the atmosphere in all the cells is so weird, Xinghe can feel that someone may pick up the dagger on the ground at any time and insert it into the chest of the person next to him, Anton and Xiaoyue are also shrouded in this danger, and just now he threw out the only means to leave this cell.

Xinghe ran to the door lock a little uncontrollably, the lock of the cell was just a not very complicated spring lock, if he was given a set of handy lock picking tools, he could pick the lock in ten minutes, but he had already checked before, and everything on his body had been searched by Lloyd.

Another scream rang out, followed by the sound of the riot, the screams, the cries, not as quickly as the previous one, this time the riot was noticeably much longer, and many people in the surrounding cells were leaning on the bars and looking out.

"Fatty, Satsuki, how are you, is it over there?" Xinghe shouted.

"Brother, I'm fine. Lan Yue's voice trembled a little.

"I'm fine here, how are you over there?" Anton's voice sounded normal.

"Mom...... I want to go home. The cry came from behind Xinghe, he turned his head and saw that Kara was holding her knees and crying loudly, her hair was already messed up with her hairpin, Xinghe didn't mean to laugh at her, in such an environment, this is probably the most normal reaction.

Wait, that hairpin, Xinghe glanced at the hairpin on Kara's hair, and then at the lock on the door, you can give it a try, and Xinghe, who felt hope, limped towards Kara.

His actions caught everyone's attention, and everyone looked at him warily, including Kara, and with every step Galaxy took forward, she took a few steps backwards until she hit the wall.

Before he could get to Kara's side, Kayla stood between him and Kara, glaring at him with a solemn expression.

Xinghe, who was already dazed, roared, "Get out of the way." He tried to push her away, but because of his weakness, he couldn't succeed and almost let himself fall.

"What do you want to do to her. Kayla stared at him.

Xinghe was stunned for a moment, and looked around at the people around him, all of whom were staring at him, while Kara, leaning against the wall in horror, still had tears on her face.

Only then did he realize that there was something wrong with his actions, "You misunderstood, I just want that hairpin." ”

"Hairpin card?" Kayla looked confused, and without explaining anything more to her, Xinghe bypassed her, plucked the hairpin from Kara's head, who was still trembling in terror, and limped back to the door lock.

He broke the iron hairpin into a suitable angle, then inserted it through the keyhole, and began to tinker, the children in the cell were already looking at Xinghe in a circle, and now they probably understood what Xinghe was trying to do, and they all looked at Xinghe with a look of hope.

Xinghe stared at the keyhole, listening to a faint sound coming from within.

While he was busy, the cell that had caused the riot had been opened, and the disheveled children rushed out, all of them covered in blood, some of them their own, some of someone else's.

Just for a moment, Xinghe felt a palpitation in his heart, and he heard a crisp sound, but it didn't open, but the hairpin was broken.

Xinghe stared blankly at the remaining half of the hairpin in his hand and sat down on the ground.

"Use mine. Holding a hairpin in one hand in front of him, Xinghe looked up blankly and saw Kayla looking at him with her hair scattered.

He didn't take the hairpin, and said dumbly: "It's useless, the lock cylinder is blocked." ”

"Get out of the way. The Demon Boy rudely pulled Xinghe aside and stood in front of the lock, "If I take the contents out, you can open it?"

Xinghe stared at him blankly and nodded.

So the boy looked at the keyhole and, after making a few strange gestures, stretched out his hand towards the lock and made a gesture of pulling outward, his face flushed as if he were in a tug-of-war.

After a while, as if the rope had broken in a tug-of-war, the boy staggered back several steps, and suddenly fell to the ground, he stared at the galaxy, let go of his grip on the ground, and the half of the hairpin that was broken in the lock cylinder lay on his hand.

Xinghe knowingly took another hairpin from Kayla's hand, broke it and inserted it into the lock cylinder, this time he was very careful, and after a few minutes, a crisp sound came out of the lock cylinder, and everyone looked at Xinghe nervously, until Xinghe took the full hairpin out of the lock, and the iron door also opened, they finally began to cheer.

Instead of joining the dining party with them, Xinghe first picked up the dagger he had thrown away, tore a strip of cloth from his clothes, and tied the dagger to his thigh.

He first went to see Anton's cell, where the momentum can already be described as tense, Anton, everyone leaned against the wall, looked at the dagger in the center, did not dare to act rashly, the appearance of Xinghe broke their stalemate.

"Xinghe, you?" Anton looked at him in surprise.

"I picked the lock open, are you okay here?" Xinghe asked.

"It's okay for the time being, you go and save Satsuki first. Anton gave him a thumbs up.

Xinghe nodded, and ran to the cell where Lan Yue was kept, where the situation was a little more critical, a girl with a dagger stood in the middle of the cell, while everyone else leaned against the wall and stared at her.

Xinghe didn't say much, bent down and began to pick the lock, after having the experience of picking the previous lock, this matter became less difficult, when Xinghe opened the iron door of the cell, the girl with the dagger suddenly let go of the dagger, sat down on the ground, and cried, while others, including Lan Yue, came out of it.

Xinghe opened Anton's cell again according to the law, and after the three of them got together, the demon spirit boy came over, he looked at Xinghe, and said, "Leviathan." ”

"Huh?" Xinghe was a little confused.

The boy looked at him dissatisfied, "My name." ”

"Oh. Xinghe nodded, bypassed him, and walked towards another cell that had not yet been opened, supported by Lan Yue and Anton.

Leviathan grabbed him from behind and asked, "You don't want to open all the cells, do you?"

"Is there a problem?" Xinghe glanced back at him.

"There's only so much food left here. ”

Xinghe looked at the food truck, he had opened three cells, and the food for fifty people had already been eaten by forty-eight people in the previous two cells, even if he opened all the cells, there would definitely be people who would starve, and even worse things might happen.

He understood these things that the three of them had grown up in that kind of environment, and they were naturally not good people, but he still felt that things should not be like this, and he didn't want to see more blood today.

"I'll give up my share. Xinghe waved his hand and let Anton carry him to the next cell, Lan Yue and Anton stood behind him while he was concentrating on picking the lock.

"If you were to open all the locks, wouldn't this trial be meaningless?" Lloyd's voice suddenly came from behind.

Xinghe pulled the dagger from his thigh and stabbed it behind him, he expected Lloyd to appear again, but he still underestimated Lloyd, and he only used two fingers to hold Xinghe's dagger firmly.

Then, as if he were preaching to everyone, he exclaimed, "Remember, never show mercy when confronted by your enemies." With that, he kicked Xinghe's already swollen knee.

So, he fainted in pain.
