Chapter 128: Jailhouse Killer

  When the two prison guards brought in a young man who looked ill, they saw Hao Lei kneeling on the ground and licking Wang Yu's leather shoes. This left the two prison guards speechless for half a day.

  Hao Lei is the troublemaker in this detention center, often causing trouble while waiting for the verdict to come down, even the prison guards are not afraid of him, shouting all day that whoever dares to provoke him will be killed by him when he gets out. Now seeing him licking Wang Yu's shoes like a grandson, how can it not surprise people?

  A young man with a sickly complexion flashed a barely perceptible murderous intent in his eyes, and the corners of his mouth slightly curled up as he quietly observed Wang Yu and the bald-headed, scar-faced man at his feet.

  Wang Yu looked up to see two prison guards and a sickly young man enter, but he didn't panic, only awkwardly smiled: "Ah, my shoes are dirty, I didn't bring shoe polish or a shoe brush, so I'll have to trouble Baldy. Sickly little brother, want to try out Baldy's shoe-shining skills?"

  "No, thank you for your kindness, I'm wearing sneakers." The young man thanked softly, then started coughing violently, as if he could cough up his lungs at any moment.

  "What's going on? What happened here?" The prison guard was doing his job responsibly, he thought of himself as a responsible man.

  Wang Yu hadn't even responded when the prison guard continued, "Oh, so it's shoe shining. Just make do with it in the detention center. Shining shoes every day is also exhausting, and if you get sick, everyone will be held accountable."

  Wang Yu was completely speechless.

  The prison guard walked away, and the young man sat at a table facing Wang Yu. The thin monkey still didn't dare to get up, pretending to be dizzy on the ground. Hao Lei felt that he had been cleaned up, raised his head and asked Wang Yu in a low voice if he was satisfied. The remaining four were ordinary-looking middle-aged men who were timid and hiding far away, not daring to come forward, and didn't seem like troublemakers.

  Wang Yu looked at the young man opposite him and suddenly seemed interested: "What's your name?"

  "Zhang Jie!" The young man was a bit shy, and no matter what Wang Yu asked him, he would answer, even taking the initiative to explain why he had gone to the detention center.

  Wang Yu smiled and didn't ask anymore, still lying down to sleep.

  In the evening, Luo Xun came to the guard post to visit Wang Yu. Li Xueying and Bai Ling, Bai Jie sisters also came along, their faces were solemn, as if the situation was quite serious.

  "What's wrong? It seems like you're here to see me off." Wang Yu said with a smile through the glass window.

  Luoxuan shook his head: "The situation is not good! Ye Zekai's injury has worsened and he has been taken to the emergency room, but he hasn't come out yet. No matter how many people can testify for you, as the Secretary of the Discipline Inspection Commission, the first words he says after waking up have a special meaning that is different from ordinary people. The incident has already reached the provincial level, and my dad can't directly intervene either, so he just found someone to pay attention to it, and everything will be handled according to legal procedures."

  "If Ye Zhenkai is dead, won't I be locked up here for the rest of my life? Damn it, I have an alibi and no motive to kill him. These bureaucrats can't handle the case in such a dark way." Wang Yu's smile faded away, feeling that things had already gone beyond his expectations.

  Luoxu explained: "This is no longer your business, several factions in the province are taking advantage of your situation to jockey for position, both sides are fighting fiercely, almost dragging in the military representatives, which made the old generals at the provincial military district very angry. This morning I called my mom, she has already gone to the military district to find someone to intercede, we'll use a side door, borrow the military's power to get you out first and talk later. Don't care about their jockeying or fighting, who is making moves with knives, forget it!"

  "A bunch of bastards! Tell Jiang Ming that I'm going to the military district to raise dogs." Wang Yu was annoyed, being bullied wasn't his style. He didn't care about their factional struggles. If it weren't for the nationwide crackdown on organized crime, he would have dared to send someone to take out the people who had framed him. This kind of big scheme was something he used to think was beneath him, because it was too ruthless, a double-edged sword that could easily backfire and leave himself shattered."

  "You should have said so earlier, you really want to join the army, I won't let my mom go to the military district to find connections anymore." Luo Xuan's face lit up with joy, he knew that as long as the old leader from the military side spoke up, even if Wang Yu had really committed a crime, they could still forcibly get him out. Not to mention Wang Yu was innocent, just being dragged down by the current social situation.

  Li Xueying handed a small package to Wang Yu, but it was intercepted by the prison guard next to her: "Routine inspection!"

  Wang Yu ignored him, letting him investigate however he wanted; at worst, they could just come back and "investigate" again at his house later.

  Li Xueying was still worried and comforted him, saying: "If you lack anything, just call someone. If you can't come to the trial in June, don't worry, I'll bring more bodyguards."

  Wang Yu smiled and said, "Don't worry, I've got it all figured out in my heart. Don't make a big deal out of this like it's life or death. In the past when I was free outside, I didn't see you showing any concern for me, but as soon as we meet, you put on a face and show it to me."

  "Back then, if you didn't put on a straight face, wouldn't you be eaten alive immediately?" Li Xueying said, only to remember that there were still people beside her, and her cheeks slightly flushed as she retreated from the small window.

  Bai Ling and Bai Jie, two sisters, stepped forward. Bai Jie spoke first, saying: "My sister and I will wait for you."

  Bai Ling hastily said, her face suddenly turning bright red: "Don't drag me into this, I'm not familiar with him. You guys talk, I'll just stand by and watch. If something really happens, I'll have material for a news story."

  "Hehe, Xiao Jie, help out at First World Bar for a few days, if anything comes up, find Luo Xuan first, I'll be back soon." Wang Yu instructed.

  The two sisters also brought a package, with cigarettes and wine, plus some snacks, and put in a few changes of clothes. Li Xueying's small package was very simple, inside were all small denomination cash, which made the two prison guards stunned.

  The cafeteria indeed requires a small amount of cash, and maintaining relationships with prison guards also requires cash. It can be seen that Li Xueying had asked around before preparing the package.

  Wang Yu returned to the detention room with two packages and casually threw them onto the bed, no need to hide, nobody dared to touch his things.

  Wang Yu had instructed others not to tell Lin Yue about his capture, so Dean Lin did not come to see him. As for Huang Rong, she should be subject to certain restrictions, and Ninth Uncle dared not let her out, the situation outside might be very severe.

  At dinner time in the evening, Wang Yu used cash to exchange for a sumptuous meal and invited everyone in the same room, including the skinny monkey who was beaten, to enjoy the most sumptuous dinner in the detention center. The prisoners from other rooms were drooling with envy but didn't dare to cause trouble. Everyone knew that someone who could afford to have a feast in the detention center was not to be trifled with.

  At night, the lights were already out. A small green venomous snake with a few white spots on its back, which was commonly found in the Jiangsu and Zhejiang regions, suddenly appeared beside Wang Yu's bed. It slowly crawled up onto Wang Yu's bed along the slender cylindrical leg of the bed.

  Like a seasoned killer, it crawled to Wang Yu's side of the head, spat out red silk, opened its mouth wide, revealed its poisonous fangs, and leaned close to his neck.

  But Little Green Snake suddenly froze, like a stone statue, staring at Wang Yu. Then her head went soft and fell onto Wang Yu's shoulder, as if she had fallen asleep.

  Wang Yu's snoring continued, but Zhang Jie, the frail young man facing the bed, shifted uncomfortably. After a while, as Wang Yu's snores grew fainter, he quietly walked over to Wang Yu and nudged his shoulder with his hand.

  Wang Yu suddenly kicked out and aimed at Zhang Jie's head.

  Zhang Jie's head shrunk back, avoiding Wang Yu's attack, and his other hand had already struck towards Wang Yu's head.

  When Wang Yu moved, his body was already prepared to get out of bed and shook off the small green snake on his shoulder. Zhang Jie's palm reached near Wang Yu's head, but didn't hit his head, instead hitting the snake's body.

  Hiss! A sharp cry of a snake species echoed in the dark night, and the venomous snake that was attacked instantly counterattacked, biting Zhang Jie's arm. The snake was slapped to death, but its two fangs were deeply embedded in Zhang Jie's arm. Zhang Jie frantically shook his arm twice, but couldn't shake them off.

  Being bitten by a bamboo leaf green snake, as long as it is treated properly, it will not be fatal in general. However, this bamboo leaf green snake died and retaliated, injecting all the toxic liquid into Zhang Jie's wound, with an extremely large amount of toxin. In addition to severe pain at the wound site, there will also be symptoms such as dizziness and vomiting.

  Wang Yu didn't give him time to catch his breath. The moment he was bitten by the snake, a palm slapped towards his back.

  Zhang Jie suddenly turned around, a cold light appeared in his hand, stabbing towards Wang Yu's palm. At the same time, he kicked out with his foot, aiming at Wang Yu's crotch.

  His speed was swift and ruthless, and even under the influence of snake venom, he still had a fierce aura that didn't match his frail appearance at all.

  Wang Yu raised his knee, cutting off his opponent's foot that was about to kick him. He flipped his right palm over, avoiding the dagger, and slashed at his wrist.

  Zhang Jie saw the weight of Wang Yu's palm and didn't dare to take it head-on, using his arm wrapped with a poisonous snake corpse to smash towards Wang Yu's side palm.

  With a loud crash, the two men engaged in a fierce battle, and the snake's body turned into mush, but the venomous fangs broke off inside Zhang Jie's arm.

  Wang Yu didn't give him a chance to treat the snake venom, dared to come and kill himself, no matter who he was, knock him down first. Moreover, this killer is extremely dangerous and cannot hesitate at all.

  The two of them clenched their teeth and fought in silence for a while, finally waking up the others. However, these people were all cunning, covering their mouths one by one, not daring to make a sound, pretending to be asleep.

  The venom took effect, Zhang Jie's movements slowed down, and Wang Yu pressed a seal to his chest. His body trembled, and he fell softly to the ground.

  "Damn it, I've been hitting geese all day, but the goose pecked my eyes, I was careless, you actually have a cotton palm..." Zhang Jie fell to the ground, his mouth overflowing with fresh blood, his voice growing weaker.

  "Who sent you?" Wang Yu asked in a cold voice.

  Zhang Jie stared at Wang Yu coldly, without saying a word.

  "Oh, so it's Nie Qingjun who sent you." Wang Yu seemed to be muttering to himself, but no one knew that he had a Master System in his body.

  "......" Zhang Jie's eyes widened in shock, incredulously staring at Wang Yu, he couldn't understand how the other party knew the truth.

  "Where did you come from? Freelance killer or organized killer?" Wang Yu asked again.

  Zhang Jie used his last bit of strength to drop the dagger and covered his mouth with his hand. He was afraid that he would hallucinate and say something he shouldn't.

  "Oh, so it's a freelance killer from the provincial city, and he used to be a soldier too, what a pity. So it was Zou Shao who introduced him, they really think highly of me, this is also why you can bring daggers and poisonous snakes in. With their methods, it would be easy for them to arrange for several more killers to come in." King Yu muttered to himself.

  "......" Zhang Jie wanted to strangle himself, he was on the verge of going crazy. He hadn't said anything, so how did the other person know all this information?

  "Alas, I have to go out, but it's hard for you to say." There were no surveillance cameras in the room, and Wang Yu didn't plan to call emergency medical personnel or notify the prison guards. He planned to watch this killer die with his own eyes.
