The Villain Has Blackened Again

Chapter 172: Go Away, My Brother Came To Pick Me Up

District A without King Yan Luo became restless again and Nan Xun became a newly recognized Prison Tyrant. But like King Yan Luo, he was a Prison Tyrant that didn’t care about trivial things.

Although Nan Xun didn’t care, he selected a new second leader for District A, and it was Brother Tie from his cell 242, this made all the inmates in cell 242 rose in rank.

There was Brother Tie who managed those restless inmates inside while his Second Brother Ji He supported him from outside, Nan Xun’s life was very comfortable, but he still felt lonely ah.

Prisoners mostly spent their time in the factory building for labor reform, when his brother Yan Luo was there in the past, the both of them did the intelligent-type of work, such as soldering circuit boards and assembling small electrical parts ah. But his second brother Ji He was a real tough man. He only did the rough work of grinding stones and metal parts, thus their place differed, and Nan Xun had no one to chat with. Except for the two people meeting during the morning run and break time, they basically weren’t together at other times.

Thus, Nan Xun thought that Ji He’s private life might be quite ‘plentiful’, that’s why he didn’t look for him at night.

Today was the 28th day from Yan Luo’s departure, it will be a full month soon, Nan Xun couldn’t help but miss him more and more. He had now altered Su Mobai’s dead ending that would happen in 3 years. According to his present status, no one would be brave enough to provoke him, although there were still people who secretly called him as Prison Flower.

Life in the prison was dull and boring, Nan Xun couldn’t wait for Little Eight to wake up to take him away, but there was still a trace of regrets and worries in his heart.

In break time, Nan Xun sat his butt down on the green lawn as Ji He sat across him.

“Second brother, I miss my brother.” Nan Xun squinted at the dazzling sun in the sky. Because his eyes were stimulated by the strong sunlight, it became filled with tears.

But Ji He didn’t know ah, he thought he was really crying, he became confused and at a loss. He had no other choice but to pat his shoulder in comfort, “Little White, don’t cry, Yan Luo will come and take us out.”

Nan Xun heard Ji He’s tone as if he were so sure that Yan Luo would let them out, he was quite astonished, “How do you know that ah, second brother? Even though my brother is so powerful, surely he can’t stretch his hands inside Meihuan Prison?”

Ji He, “It’s indeed impossible to meddle in, but there are other ways such as conducting a retrial on your case, changing your crime from intentional murder to legitimate defense. By changing your sentence time, your good behavior in prison along with a thick bail fee, taking you out is just a month’s matter.”

Nan Xun’s gaze changed slightly, it was as if he was looking at Ji He with scrutiny, “Second brother, you seem to know my brother well.”

Ji He met his gaze and couldn’t help but smiled lightly, “Little White, Yan Luo said you’re naive and simple but I never thought of you like that. You just had Yan Luo’s protection so you were too lazy to pay attention to other things. After Yan Luo left, you subconsciously started to depend on yourself. In your eyes, others are not reliable, including me.”

His expression became particularly serious at this moment, those pair of eyes that always hid a lot of emotions was now fixedly gazing at Nan Xun, “Little White, did you really not know Yan Luo before? You gave me the impression that you seem to know each other for a long time.”

Nan Xun was stunned before he whispered, “Second brother, what nonsense are you talking about? How could I know my brother before? He’s someone who mixed in the dark world while I was just a normal student. Did you think that you’re a psychology professor that you understand much about other people?”

Ji He wanted to rub his head but Nan Xun avoided him, so he shrugged and said, “See? This is the difference, you let Yan Luo rub your head while I can’t, you only recognize him alone inside your heart.”

Nan Xun mercilessly poked his heart, “It’s not just me saying things ah, second brother, my brother holds me dearly more than you. Furthermore, I was traumatized. I couldn’t look at you directly because last time I bumped into you doing that thing with your Prison Flower in the bushes ah.”

Ji He was stunned, but then laughed out loud, “Foolish brother, do you really think that I like men? Venting off like that is just a normal thing for us.”

With that said, he spoke indifferently, “It’s a mutual consent, he solves my physical needs and I cover for him, it’s that simple.”

Nan Xun didn’t believe him completely. Ji He always gives him a strange feeling like he can be righteous and evil at the same time, there were always other things hidden inside his eyes.

There were a lot of scars on his right hand that his original fingerprints can’t be seen anymore, he had accumulated many scars on his body. It could be seen that he had went through a lot of fighting. He’s someone that could gauge people’s mind. Nan Xun even suspected if he had learned psychology.

“Second brother, you saying this makes me wonder if you came close to my brother in order to leave this prison earlier.” Nan Xun stared at him with a solemn expression.

Ji He’s expression remained the same, “Do you think he didn’t know?” He admitted it directly.

Nan Xun froze, listening to him. Ji He then continued to say, “He’s the ringleader of the underworld while I’m only a hired thug in a second-rate faction. I’m not worth mentioning if I was compared to him. Even if I didn’t help him that day, he still had his own ways. He didn’t need to grant me his favor.”

With a slight pause, his gaze towards Nan Xun became deeper, “He was looking for a backer to protect you during his absence. Before we got along with each other, before he nurtured the friendship between us, he had been secretly appraising my reliability.”

Speaking until here, Ji He didn’t continue to talk because the whistle had ended their break time.

Nan Xun walked behind him; his expression was as if he was in a trance.

If what he said was right, then Yan Luo, he… had planned so much for me for a long time?

Nan Xun looked at Ji He and suddenly said, “Second brother, even if you approached my brother just to go out from here, my brother and I had already recognized you as our brother!”

Ji He’s footstep paused, he looked back at him, his expression brought a rare trace of gentleness, but there were still some complexities that Nan Xun couldn’t understand.

More than a month later, when the jailer told Nan Xun that he could be released, Nan Xun felt somewhat surprised. Sure enough, it was as what Ji He said. Yan Luo tried to get him out, but he didn’t expect that it would be this fast.

Before leaving, Nan Xun couldn’t help but look at his cellmates in 242. There was reluctance in Brother Tie and Du Pan’s faces, but there was more envy in it.

Nan Xun gave a fist to everyone’s chest and smiled, “You guys have to change yourself for the better, I’ll see you guys outside.”

Brother Tie and Du Pan nodded while Old Three cried like a dog, didn’t know if it was because he’s reluctant about Nan Xun’s leaving or if he was thinking about the second half of his life.

Nan Xun left Meihuan prison.

Crossing through two tall electronic gates and under surveillance cameras, he saw a black car 100 meters away in front of him.

The car window turned down and Nan Xun saw the familiar handsome face. He couldn’t help but cried out as he ran over like there were wings on his feet.

Yan Luo had already got off the car as he swept Nan Xun inside his embrace, turning in circles happily.
