Chapter 471: Chapter 505, Exposed!

The man was sent flying backward with a punch to the chest from Fang Yi, and the surrounding inmates each seemed about to react, but upon seeing the man crash into the wall, they all slowed down.

To put it precisely, they were all apprehensive.

Because with that punch from Fang Yi, the man had flown a good five meters.

What kind of punching power was that?

None of them could achieve it.

Everyone’s faces turned sour, extremely wary of Fang Yi, while Fang Yi glanced over them, and finally, withdrawing his gaze, he said, "May I ask... does anyone else wish to discuss the rules with me?"

Everyone remained silent.

Fang Yi made his way to his assigned spot.

In the prison, there were bunk beds as well as beds made of stone platforms, and in this prison, all the beds were made of stone, built with bricks. However, Fang Yi’s bunk was unfortunately situated near the toilet.

Fang Yi frowned slightly, then suddenly turned around and said, "I don’t like this spot. Does anyone want to trade with me?"

The crowd remained silent, not daring to respond, fearing that any reply might provoke Fang Yi, and none wanted to be blasted away like the man before.

Without an answer from anyone, Fang Yi did not linger; he casually took a seat by the door, a spot belonging to a bald, muscular man. When Fang Yi approached him, the bald man hesitated for a brief moment and then, without any hesitation, hopped off his bed, gathered his bedding, and swiftly cleared out.

During this period, Fang Yi didn’t speak a word, his gaze never shifted, purely with that prior act, he had intimidated the dozens of inmates in the cell, no one daring to cross him.

Fang Yi, feeling perfectly justified, made his bed in the best spot available and then lay down, closing his eyes without any caution as he fell asleep while the others watched.

Yet, still, no one dared to approach him while he was vulnerable.

Meanwhile, the man who had been felled by Fang Yi’s punch struggled to stand up, rubbing his chest in pain, his mouth covered in blood. However, he dared not scream or call out, quietly wiping away the blood instead.

The man’s name was Ma Xiaoliu, a seasoned criminal familiar with the rules of the prison; however, the humiliation he had suffered today was not something he could just let slide.

Ma Xiaoliu stared at the now-sleeping Fang Yi with a fierce expression, grinding his teeth in anger, yet ultimately not daring to confront him.

At six in the evening, Fang Yi followed the main group to the cafeteria for dinner, then watched TV with them for a while, participated in educational learning, and finally returned to the cell, where he fell into a sound sleep.

A day in prison was actually quite simple, mostly spent looking through the skylight in the cell, and throughout this process, Fang Yi showed neither sorrow nor anxiety, eating well, and sleeping soundly as if everything were normal.

However, in the prison’s surveillance room, someone was getting anxious.

"How could there be no commotion at all, can this Fang Yi really keep his composure so well?" Liu Yuanguang murmured softly in the surveillance room, watching the scenes on the monitor.

Liu Yuanguang was in a hurry to pin Fang Yi down, but Fang Yi didn’t expose any weaknesses, leaving him feeling frustrated and powerless.

Truth be told, Liu Yuanguang knew full well that Fang Yi was not the assassin, yet Fang Yi’s behavior was too abnormal.

Normally, someone branded as an assassin would yell and scream, using whatever connections they had to exonerate themselves, but Fang Yi was far too calm.

Yes, too calm, so calm that Liu Yuanguang suspected that he might be the real assassin.

However, Liu Yuanguang had long been aware that the other person wasn’t an assassin, just too calm, making it impossible for Liu Yuanguang to make his move.

He had to press the other person down quickly!

Otherwise, dragging it out like this, delay could bring changes, the pressure of public opinion from the outside world as well as the internal pressures from above and below were making Liu Yuanguang feel like he couldn’t hold on much longer. Liu Yuanguang feared that many dreams would come with a long night.

After leaving the jail, Liu Yuanguang looked around very carefully and, seeing no one following him, he let his guard down and got into a black BMW car before driving away.

Liu Yuanguang had come alone, as this matter could not be known by outsiders; he had to be extremely cautious.

While Liu Yuanguang had confirmed there was no one following, what he didn’t know was that after he had driven away from the jail, a red Audi car followed behind him—indeed, it was Liu Yuanguang.

Liu Yuanguang drove to the outskirts where, due to the night, it was creepy, with only a silver moon hanging high in the sky. The red Audi that was following had already stopped, and from it, a woman got out and slowly approached Liu Yuanguang’s direction.

But she didn’t get too close, for she was discovered.

No longer dressed in an OL’s office lady outfit but instead in tight clothing, wearing a duckbill cap, and with a mask covering her face, Shen Binnan cautiously approached and then discovered Liu Yuanguang was there to meet someone.

By the light of the moon, one could faintly make out that Liu Yuanguang was meeting a middle-aged man. Shen Binnan hesitated for a moment, then she quickly switched her phone’s camera to silent mode and took a photo.

The picture that came out was somewhat blurry, but one could roughly make out the appearances of Liu Yuanguang and the middle-aged man.

"Lin Third Master," Liu Yuanguang approached Lin Zheng and said, "You did not tell the truth."

Lin Zheng chuckled, "What truth do you want to hear?"

Liu Yuanguang said, "That Fang Yi is too difficult to deal with, just terrifyingly calm. He might have already guessed the trap you’ve set."

Lin Zheng said indifferently, "So what if he’s guessed it? As long as we nail him, won’t all our problems be gone?"

Liu Yuanguang said, "But that’s exactly the problem, Fang Yi is so calm that you can’t find any evidence against him! It’s just not possible to nail him easily—I’m telling you, the pressure from public opinion, and the internal pressures, are almost too much for me to bear!"

Lin Zheng was silent for a moment, then suddenly his face showed a chilling smile, "In that case, let him plead guilty."

Liu Yuanguang, as if realizing something, his expression changed dramatically, "You... you can’t be thinking of getting him killed in jail! I can’t do that, I can’t!" He was frantic, filled with regret.

Yet, Lin Zheng had seen through Liu Yuanguang’s thoughts and whispered, "Director Liu, having already boarded the thief’s ship, do you think you can still get off? It’s already too late. One step back is an abyss, one step forward, and although there’s a stone in the way, if you kick the stone aside, a bright future awaits you."

Liu Yuanguang was silent for a good ten seconds before he said in a heavy voice, "Alright, then what do you want me to do?"

Lin Zheng smiled, "Just listen..."

A few minutes later, Liu Yuanguang’s face under the moonlight was one of sheer shock. He dearly wanted to roar out loud, but given how things had progressed, there was no longer any room for him to retreat, leaving him no choice but to accept.

"Fine, let’s go with that!" Liu Yuanguang said in a heavy voice, "I just hope your plan goes quickly and doesn’t cause me any trouble!"

Lin Zheng smiled, "Of course."

After concluding their talk, the two were about to leave when suddenly, the ringtone of a mobile phone rang out not far from them.
