Yue Xin looked up at No.12. His back was facing the light, and the expression on his face could not be seen clearly, but his voice was extremely gentle at this moment. It was so gentle that it made people uneasy.
“I used to be a prisoner in Building No. 2. After that, because many people were afraid of me, I was promoted to a prison guard.” “Did you hear the notification? My life has just been handed over to you.” “This is the true meaning of the identity of a dog.”
Yue Xin touched her earpiece. After the notification sounded, as long as she touched it with her hand, the earpiece would remind her if she was calling Bo Anyi. She understood that she could call summon No.12 anytime and anywhere now. Her gaze landed on No. 12’s left hand and she asked, “What was that just now?”
No.12 subconsciously moved his hand. He wanted to brush it off, but he was still defeated by Yue Xin’s gaze.
“The controller that destroyed the chip just now. The controller can transfer ownership when it’s close to the earpiece. All the prisoners in Building No. 2 have been implanted with a sensor-only chip. As long as they say the password to destroy the chip to the controller, they can detonate the chip and achieve the goal of destruction.”
Yue Xin nodded, indicating that she understood. This was the same as what was written in the manual of Building 2.
“Where did you hide the controller previously?” Although Yue Xin was asking, from her tone, she did not have any doubts. Her gaze had already landed on No. 12’s left arm, as if she understood everything.
“It was very dangerous in Building No. 2 earlier. Just in case, I hid the controller in my body.”
Yue Xin tilted her head. “What if someone discovers it and forcefully digs it out?”
No.12 smiled indifferently. “Even if I die, I don’t want to be controlled by others.” After saying this, he changed the topic before Yue Xin could answer. “Why do you think I won’t betray you?”
Yue Xin said without hesitation, “I believe you.”
These words were said lightly, but they landed heavily on No.12’s heart. No.12’s pupils constricted slightly, and he suddenly did not dare to look at Yue Xin. He only said that she could call him if there was anything and left as if he was escaping.
Yue Xin looked at the door that had already been closed by No.12 and couldn’t help but wonder why people trusted another person so easily. However, were the emotions displayed by No. 12 true emotions? She thought for a while and didn’t get an answer, so she temporarily kept this question in her heart like before. One day, she would figure out these things that she didn’t understand.
Yue Xin had not finished what she had just said to No.12. She did believe him, however, it was not really No.12 she believed in but her sister, Yue Qing.
She believed that Yue Qing would not place dangerous people by her side, so she believed that No.12 would never betray her. Although she believed in No.12, it had nothing to do with No.12. No.12 submitted to her, and it had nothing to do with her.
Yue Xin opened the door. Unlike the room in Building No. 1 with a wide field of vision and ample sunlight, the cell in the newbie building was dark and small. The bed was very hard; it was as if she was sleeping on the marble floor. As long as she stepped into the room and took a breath of the surrounding air, it would seem like she was swallowed by the aura of despair. Suffocating but impossible to escape. Fortunately, she was not alone.
“Maya, I’m home.”
The next day, Yue Xin was woken up by a knock on the door. She looked at the time in the cell. It was just 5:30 in the morning. Ordinary prisoners had to gather at this time, but the people in Building No. 1 didn’t need it, and all the prisoners on the 30th floor didn’t need it either.
The prisoners in the Newbie Building mainly explored how to survive in prison and did not have to participate in the 5:30 am gathering. This was also a form of protection for the newbies, in case they provoked someone they should not have provoked during the gathering and died in a few days.
After Yue Xin was woken up, she quickly got up. She was not in a hurry to open the door. Instead, she contacted No.12 first. No.12 sounded very awake. If she listened carefully, she could hear the breathing from the earpiece being a little faster than usual. Although it was only a little, she was still detected it. No.12 should be exercising.
“No. 12, there’s someone outside my door. Go and take a look.”
“Okay.” No.12’s voice did not hesitate at all. He immediately agreed, as if he was unconditionally obeying all of Yue Xin’s orders like he did in Building 1.
Yue Xin didn’t hang up the call. She wanted to determine No.12’s current location and what he had done through No. 12’s voice. But strangely, after No.12 replied, the earpiece became especially quiet.
Finally, at the 34th second, Yue Xin heard a woman’s scream from her door. Then, No.12’s voice sounded in her earpiece. “The person outside are under control. You can come out now.”
Only then did Yue Xin open the door. Then, she found that Denise was being stomped on by No.12. Fortunately, he was stomping on her back instead of her face..
