#175 - Chapter 175 My name is Zhou Qinshu
"Next, District Chief Su Li from District Three will talk about the prison rules. Listen carefully." Ji Min took a step back and looked at Su Li.
Su Li stepped forward, looked at everyone, and said coldly, "First, no one is allowed to kill inside the prison. Violators will be prosecuted according to the law…"
"No killing?" Xiang Nanzhi's voice came from behind, interrupting Su Li.
Su Li frowned and looked at Xiang Nanzhi with displeasure. "What's wrong? Do you have a question?"
"I heard from a prisoner who came out of this prison that people often die inside. I heard there are five notorious villains, and no guard dares to interfere with their affairs. They're like the local emperors of the prison. Is that true?"
Xiang Nanzhi asked curiously, his clear eyes full of thirst for knowledge.
Hearing Xiang Nanzhi's words, the trainees all looked at Su Li.
Su Li took a deep look at Xiang Nanzhi. "What's your name?"
"Zhou Qinshu," Xiang Nanzhi replied without changing his expression.
Zhou Qinshu, who was beside him, was shocked and turned his head in confusion. "Brother, you…"
"Zhou Qinshu, good, I'll remember you. I don't know about the problems you mentioned, and I don't know where you heard them. You can go to the prison yourself to find the answers."
The corners of Su Li's mouth curled up, and a hint of unfriendly light flashed in his narrow eyes.
Without giving Xiang Nanzhi a chance to speak, Su Li shifted his gaze and began talking about other rules.
Behind the crowd, Zhou Qinshu felt as if his heart had bungee jumped into a volcano after hearing what Su Li said. The feeling could only be described as chilling and exhilarating.
"Brother…"
Zhou Qinshu reached out and shook Xiang Nanzhi's arm.
"What's wrong?"
Xiang Nanzhi looked at Zhou Qinshu innocently.
Zhou Qinshu's Adam's apple bobbed slightly. "You… you said my name just now?"
"This…" Xiang Nanzhi smiled awkwardly. Naturally, he wouldn't tell him that he just did it because he thought it was fun.
Xiang Nanzhi said seriously, "I was thinking about you the whole time, so I subconsciously said your name. You don't blame me, do you?"
"It's okay, it's okay. Then we'll go explain later," Zhou Qinshu said, pointing at Su Li.
"What's there to explain? It's not a big deal," Xiang Nanzhi said indifferently.
"I feel… that district chief's tone was a little unfriendly just now. We should explain it," Zhou Qinshu said nervously.
"Unfriendly?" Xiang Nanzhi looked at Zhou Qinshu in disbelief. "Are you afraid that my behavior will accidentally hurt you, so you want to explain it clearly so that guy will seek revenge on me?"
"No, no, no!" Zhou Qinshu waved his hand quickly. "That's not what I meant!"
"Okay, okay, I treat you like a brother, and you're playing tricks on me. I, Xiang Nanzhi, misjudged you!" Xiang Nanzhi covered his chest, putting on a heartbroken look.
"Brother, what tricks am I playing? It's not like you caused…"
Hearing the noise coming from behind, Su Li squeezed a large "#" sign on his forehead and shouted angrily, "Hey, you two, are you haggling over there!"
Everyone turned around and looked at Zhou Qinshu and Xiang Nanzhi.
Noticing the gazes around him, Zhou Qinshu immediately realized something was wrong, let go of Xiang Nanzhi's arm, and obediently shrank back, acting as if nothing had happened.
Su Li stared at Zhou Qinshu. "What's the name of the kid in white next to Zhou Qinshu?"
"I'm talking to you. Why are you looking to your side?"
Realizing what was happening, Zhou Qinshu raised his head and looked at Su Li with some fear.
Su Li stared at Zhou Qinshu coldly. "What's your name?"
"I… I'm called Xiang Nanzhi." Zhou Qinshu lowered his head somewhat guiltily.
"Xiang Nanzhi, I'll remember you," Su Li said, pointing at Zhou Qinshu.
Those who knew the truth couldn't help but laugh at the sight.
"What's so funny? Share it with me!"
…
In the time that followed, Su Li spoke about dozens more prison rules before ending his half-hour-long speech.
"These are the rules you must abide by. Next, everyone hand over their personal belongings. Except for the rings distributed by the academy, nothing else can be kept, not even underwear. Did you hear that clearly?"
Su Li's words echoed in the ears of all the trainees.
"Hand over all items, including underwear?"
"Why confiscate underwear? Are we going to wear them secretly?"
"Are you out of your mind? Who the hell wants your underwear?"
"Where do we take them off? Here?"
Li Chenqiu raised an eyebrow, twisted his neck, and looked at Ji Min.
Coincidentally, Ji Min was also looking at Li Chenqiu at that moment. The two's gazes collided directly, but only for a moment.
Ji Min quickly shifted his gaze, as if he had never looked at Li Chenqiu.
Li Chenqiu said in a deep voice, "Xiang Nanzhi, do I have to hand over my spirit artifacts?"
Xiang Nanzhi reached out and touched Li Chenqiu's forehead with concern. "Is your brain broken? Even underwear has to be handed over, let alone your spirit artifacts."
Li Chenqiu said in a low voice, "Guess if someone will take this opportunity to cause trouble, kill me, and steal my spirit artifacts."
Xiang Nanzhi smiled indifferently, raised his hand and put it on Li Chenqiu's shoulder. "With me by your side, what do you have to fear? As for conspiracies? Just a game set up by a bunch of insignificant trash. Just play it to your heart's content."
"What if it affects the Si Tong mission?" Li Chenqiu glanced at Xiang Nanzhi's face.
"What does it have to do with me? It's not my mission," Xiang Nanzhi said matter-of-factly.
Li Chenqiu: -_-b
…
…
Under the supervision of the prison guards, everyone changed into prison uniforms and handed over all their personal belongings.
Li Chenqiu's Ember, Disorder Ring, and Xiang Nanzhi's bracelet were also handed over and sealed by the prison guards in an iron box.
Afterwards, under the leadership of Su Li, the group came to a spacious square.
Around the square, prisoners in prison uniforms curiously watched the participants in the assessment, but no one dared to approach because of Su Li.
"Are they new prisoners?"
"It feels a bit off. They're all too young!"
"Isn't young good? Don't you like it?"
"Hehehe, I like it. I think that kid with glasses is pretty good. That's the type I like," someone said, pointing at Xiang Nanzhi.
Noticing several strange gazes directed at him, Xiang Nanzhi hurriedly darted in front of Li Chenqiu.
"What are you doing?" Li Chenqiu asked in confusion.
"Planning your future," Xiang Nanzhi patted Li Chenqiu's shoulder cheekily.
Su Li pointed at Xiang Nanzhi and cursed, "Zhou Qinshu, do you have any discipline in your eyes? How many times have I called your name? Still talking? Why don't you come up here and say it while I listen below!"
The sudden scolding made Zhou Qinshu shiver, while Xiang Nanzhi continued to speak selflessly.
Seeing that Xiang Nanzhi was completely ignoring him, Su Li shouted even louder, "Zhou Qinshu, are you deaf?!"

Author's words: There was a wedding nearby today, and they sang songs all day, which made my head dizzy and caused me to have writer's block. Some parts are too rushed and not written very well. I'm sorry.
