Outside the fasting place.

A carriage came galloping on the waves from the sea outside the island, passing through the thick steel wall like a ghost and flashing away. All the guards and prisoners in the prison seemed to be unaware of its existence and were busy with their own things.

The servant drove the carriage and slowly stopped in front of a clock tower. Only then did the carriage appear in front of everyone.

Master Chen, dressed in a scholar's gown, pushed open the door of the carriage, got out of the car calmly, and walked towards the bell tower. Soon a man in a black windbreaker appeared in front of him.

"Master, you are finally back." He said respectfully.

"Xiao Xie, nothing happened in the prison while I was away, right?" Master Chen asked.

Xie Yu hesitated for a moment, then said, "Before today... nothing happened."

Master Chen raised his eyebrows, "So something happened today? Tell me about it."

"This afternoon, there was a group fight in the cafeteria. More than 20 prisoners were seriously injured, and one had half of his body crippled by chopsticks." Xie Yu replied.

Master Chen's face changed. "Fighting in the cafeteria? What do they think this place is? It's so audacious! Who did it? They must be severely punished!"

"Master, the ones who injured the man were two young men."

"What's wrong with a young man? Doesn't a young man have to follow the rules?! Xie Yu, during the time I was away, I left everything to you. Look at how you managed it?" Master Chen said coldly.

Xie Yu's face showed embarrassment, "But Master, one of the two boys who took action was not a prisoner, but a patient in Sunshine Mental Hospital."

"Patient? Is it that old dog Wu?"

"No, it's a boy named Lin Qiye."

"…"

"Master?"

"Huh? Oh, who were those people he beat?" Master Chen came back to his senses.

"The man he beat up was called Han Jinlong. He was the suspect in several missing prisoners cases we suspected before, but we never found any evidence. The other people who were beaten were all prisoners who were close to him."

"Missing Prisoner Case..." Master Chen frowned slightly, "Didn't you tell me before that there was already some clues? How come there is no evidence until now?"

Xie Yu opened his mouth, and after a moment, he bowed his head and admitted his mistake, "My subordinates are incompetent..."

Master Chen glanced at him, snorted coldly, and walked upstairs.

"Master, what should we do with those two fighting teenagers?" Xie Yu asked.

"Fight? Who fought?" Master Chen said calmly, "It was just a misunderstanding, and a few dirty prisoners were injured. It's not a big deal. Let's just leave it at that."

Master Chen walked away down the stairs, leaving Xie Yu standing there alone. After a moment, his eyes narrowed slightly...

…

Lin Qiye slowly opened his eyes.

A hard plank bed, a bare ceiling, and a neatly-made military uniform hanging on the white wall next to it... Military uniform?

Lin Qiye sat up from his bed, staring blankly at everything in front of him. After a moment of trance, he came back to his senses.

This is... a training camp?

He is back again?

Lin Qiye looked down at his body. He was still wearing a blue and white hospital gown. A look of confusion appeared in his eyes. Then he looked sideways as if he thought of something.

The room next door was completely empty, with no sign of Baili Pangpang.

"Is this a dream?" Lin Qiye muttered to himself, "Why did I dream about this place..."

He stood up from the bed, put on his military boots, opened the door of the training camp, and walked outside.

Under the gloomy sky, the entire training camp was extremely silent. The doors of all the rooms were tightly locked and no one was inside. Only the gentle breeze blew through the empty corridors, and faint whimpering sounds were heard.

Lin Qiye walked to the edge of the corridor, looked down, and was suddenly stunned.

In the open space under the dormitory building, I saw Wu Laogou, wearing a blue and white striped hospital gown, squatting there like a sculpture, staring at the empty space below him with lifeless eyes, in a daze.

"It's him... Why is he here?" Lin Qiye narrowed his eyes slightly, a look of doubt appeared in his eyes, and he turned and walked towards the corridor on the side.

Half a minute later, Lin Qiye came to Wu Laogou's side.

He stood there, glancing at the empty ground. After a moment of silence, he slowly spoke: "Is it you who is guiding me to dream? Is this your Forbidden Ruins?"

Old Dog Wu glanced at Lin Qiye and shook his messy head.

"You are the dreamer, I am just a spectator," he said.

"Onlooker?" Lin Qiye frowned slightly, "What do you want to see?"

Wu Laogou was stunned, scratched his head in confusion, hesitated for a long time, and said uncertainly: "I want to see...what kind of person you are?"

After he finished speaking, he lowered his head again, staring at his feet in a daze.

Lin Qiye stood aside, and when he heard Wu Laogou's answer, his brows furrowed even more.

This old dog Wu is so weird.

What is strange is not only his mentally ill behavior, but also his ability to come and go freely in other people's dreams. You have to know that this is in a fasting house, and all the forbidden places will be suppressed by the ruins monument, but the other party can actually open the forbidden places and enter his dream.

You have to know that there are countless walls between them. How did he do it at such a long distance?

And the strange thing is that he did nothing after he came in. He just squatted there in a daze...

After a moment, Lin Qiye seemed to remember something and spoke again: "How do you know the code to leave the hospital?"

"Codeword?" Wu Laogou turned his head in confusion, "What is the codeword?"

"Fragrant five-spice spicy spiral beef noodles with pickled cabbage."

"Oh..." Old Man Wu seemed to remember something, "This is what someone told me when I was in someone else's dream."

Lin Qiye pondered for a moment, "Did the person who told you this thing say what he would like to eat tomorrow?"

Wu Laogou tilted his head, frowning as if he was trying hard to recall something. After a few seconds, he spoke again: "It seems to be... the Bulbasaur crispy corners that Bulbasaur said were amazing after eating."

Lin Qiye secretly took note of Wu Laogou's words and planned to verify it himself during his free time tomorrow.

"So, when you have nothing to do, do you often like to enter other people's dreams?" Lin Qiye asked.

Wu Laogou thought for a moment and answered seriously, "When I'm bored."

"Don't come into my dreams again next time."

"Why?"

"This is private. What if I dream about something embarrassing one day and you see it?" Lin Qiye spread his hands helplessly.

"What will happen if he sees it?" Wu Laogou asked doubtfully, "Aren't we friends?"

"Friend?" Lin Qiye was stunned.

"You have accompanied me to see the flowers, grass, and stones...Aren't we still friends?"

Lin Qiye opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but after hesitating for a moment, he shook his head and said, "Then shouldn't you tell me who you are?"

"Me?" Wu Laogou said seriously, "I am Xiaogouer."
