Chapter 1857 Another Hit and He'll Die

The jailer sighed, "His family has some connections and spent a lot of money. But he killed someone in broad daylight, and many people saw it. The former magistrate couldn't openly protect him, so he could only temporarily detain him in jail. He'll just have to wait until things calm down before finding a pretext to release him."

Shu Yu's face grew colder as she listened. Two lives couldn't bring the murderer any justice.

The jailer, Liu, seemed to have a strong aversion to this prisoner. "Although he's in jail, he's always been treated very well. The constable Li he mentioned has frequent dealings with the prisoners. Whenever the magistrate has any assignments, it's always constable Li who comes to hand them over. So the prisoner's parents gave constable Li a lot of benefits to help him take care of the prisoner."

Don't be fooled by the fact that this prisoner is in jail; his treatment is exactly the same.

He eats and uses things differently from others; you can tell by the few henchmen following him around.

He used to be in a cell all to himself, living a carefree life. But after the rebellion, the warden ordered the prisoners to be reorganized and all the cells on the west side to be vacated.

Due to the urgency and limited manpower, the prisoners were not categorized, and this prisoner was placed together with Zhou Tiedong.

Without special treatment, the man was naturally unhappy, so he started attacking his cellmates.

After hearing this, Shu Yu looked at the man as if he were already dead. She shook the wooden stick in her hand and suddenly swung it down at him.

"Ah..." the prisoner screamed.

Shu Yu raised his hand and struck again with the stick.

"Ah...stop! Ah...help me..."

One strike, two strikes, three strikes—Shu Yu remained expressionless, like a demon, showing no mercy whatsoever.

The prisoners in the cell and those in the next cell were stunned, staring blankly as she committed the heinous act as if no one else was there.

They all shrank back silently, not daring to utter a sound.

Liu Laotou hesitated several times, but seeing Shu Yu's expression, he ultimately didn't dare to go forward to persuade her, pretending that he knew nothing.

Yingxi said, "Miss, if you hit him again, he'll die."

Shu Yu finally stopped, tossed the wooden stick aside, looked at the half-dead man, and said to the jailer, "Find someone to come over later and carry him to the cell on the west side. Isn't he on good terms with Constable Li? Let him keep him company; maybe the two brothers can even go on their way together."

"Yes, Your Highness."

As soon as Warden Liu finished speaking, the prisoners in the cell were jolted awake.

Qi Qi was immediately stunned. This was the county princess? How could that be? Shouldn't the county princess live in a grand mansion, served by servants and living a life of luxury? What was she doing in this prison where male prisoners were being held? Didn't she find it dirty?

Also, the way she almost beat someone to death just now doesn't seem like a county princess at all.

Shu Yu kicked the prisoner on the ground one last time, "This kind of bastard, we shouldn't let him continue to harm others."

They insulted the girl, drove her to suicide, and then tried to stab her own father to death. Two lives were lost; why shouldn't they be compensated?

"Let's go." Shu Yu clapped her hands and strode towards the door.

Liu, the jailer, quickly helped Zhou Tiedong catch up. After leaving the cell, Shu Yu glanced at Zhou Tiedong, then turned to Ying Xi and instructed, "Go find a doctor and have Zhou Tiedong's injuries checked. Also, take a look at the other guy who was beaten with Zhou Tiedong earlier, treat his injuries, and then ask him questions."

As for the one she hit, just bear with it.
