He drew his silenced pistol and aimed it at the target.

Two "plop" sounds.

There's absolutely no movement. What's going on? Why is there no movement at all?

The dark figure hesitated for a moment, then slowly stepped forward.

Suddenly, a blanket fell from the sky and covered the dark figure.

Then Ning Hong stepped out from behind and gave the shadowy figure a good beating.

He used tremendous force, and even through the thick quilt, he still managed to beat the man until he was bruised and swollen, screaming in agony.

In the darkness, such screams were utterly deafening.

"What happened?"

"Are they slaughtering a pig in the middle of the night?"

"That's great! We can add more dishes tomorrow."

"That doesn't sound like a pig being slaughtered, it sounds like someone is being killed."

Someone rubbed their eyes and sat up groggily.

Soon after, the patrolling prison guards heard the screams and rushed over.

"What happened?"

In an instant, the entire prison lit up.

"What exactly happened?"

"Someone wants to kill us."

Ling Zhi said, his head lowered.

Ever since he discovered someone was spying on them, he has been sleeping under the bed.

This was Ning Hongze's suggestion.

He got two more blankets from the prison guards. He wrapped himself in one and slept under the bed, while the other two were rolled up and placed on the bed.

As for himself, he was standing in the corner, clutching the last blanket.
