Chapter 27 Handcuff Resource Monster
With the skills of a racing driver, Li Sijing no longer needs to drive cautiously and can multitask, watching chats on the regional channel while driving.
At this point, all seven high-level resource boxes that had been discovered earlier had been assigned to owners.
Besides the one Wu Aiguo got at the stadium, Liu Yizhou also succeeded in getting the one he found at the shopping mall.
As for the other people who received the prize, Li Sijing didn't know any of them, and she heard that there was a woman among them.
There are now nine premium resource boxes, but only one remains, located in the landmark area, which is already overcrowded.
While checking the messages, I learned that the police station had arrived, and there were quite a few cars parked outside, indicating that there were still quite a few people inside.
With cooling patches on her face and a crossbow in hand, Li Sijing slowly entered the police station.
The police station lobby was deserted, and she couldn't help but frown. Where had everyone gone? There were so many cars parked outside.
This inexplicable strangeness made her instinctively cock her crossbow and become secretly on guard.
After walking through the empty hall, Li Sijing turned the corner and entered the corridor, where two huge metal circles suddenly appeared in the air.
Each metal circle was half a meter long, and the two connected together were as long as her two arms, floating in front of her.
Li Sijing nervously took a step back and carefully examined the two strange metal circles, only to discover that they were actually handcuffs magnified countless times.
Is this the police station's resource monster? A handcuff resource monster?
"Are you here to report a crime? What's your name?" the handcuffed resource asked sternly, his voice authoritative and forceful.
These handcuffs are made of metal; could they kill someone with them? She had her doubts, so she decided to take a look before deciding whether to take action.
"Li Sijing." After hesitating for a long time between giving a fake name and her real name, she finally chose to tell the truth.
"Li Sijing, female, 23 years old, at the age of three, she accidentally strangled a chick to death; at the age of six, she fed a cat chocolate, causing its death; at the age of ten..."
This series of self-introductions left Li Sijing stunned, as she didn't remember or knew many of the things mentioned.
From birth to before her transmigration, all her intentional or unintentional mistakes were meticulously recorded by this handcuffed resource monster.
Sensing something was wrong, she tried to escape, only to find herself unable to move once again—just like the book resource monster.
The handcuff resource monster, after reciting her life story, began to summarize.
"Based on the crimes you have committed over the years, you are sentenced to one hour in jail."
After she finished speaking, a pair of handcuffs appeared on Li Sijing's hands, and with a 'snap', she was handcuffed tightly.
This is too domineering! Looking at the handcuffs on her wrists, she looked at them with disbelief.
She was questioned as soon as she entered the door; if she had given a fake name, her punishment would have been even more severe.
They were then convicted and handcuffed, without even a chance to fight back or be killed.
Li Sijing followed the handcuffed resource monster, moving forward uncontrollably until she arrived at the door of a room.
Once inside, she immediately understood why the owners of the cars outside were all gone—they had all been brought here.
In the small room, there were two long benches, one on the left and one on the right. Five people sat on the left and four people sat on the right.
Several people, dressed like her, had their hands cuffed, and were holding paper and pens, scratching their heads and writing something.
"You sit over there and wait patiently for your release. Note that a sincere letter of apology can reduce your sentence."
After the handcuff resource monster finished speaking, paper and pen appeared directly in Li Sijing's hand.
The people sitting there looked at them with the same eyes that of fellow sufferers.
"How many hours is your sentence?" one of the young men asked curiously.
Suddenly becoming a criminal, Li Sijing was still a little unaccustomed to it. "One hour."
"That's alright, those who were assigned to our side aren't exactly heinous criminals," another uncle said.
"Were there any other people who were assigned to other places?" Li Sijing asked, somewhat surprised.
"Of course, the guy who came with me actually killed someone and was sentenced to 10 days in prison and assigned to the next room," the young man replied.
"10 days? Then he won't be able to leave after the event ends?" Li Sijing was horrified when she thought about the rules.
"They probably won't be able to get out, but they deserve it," someone nearby said gloatingly.
"The people in this room have all made minor mistakes. Their detention time will not exceed three hours. It will be over soon," someone comforted them.
Li Sijing held up a pen and paper and asked, "Didn't they say that writing a self-criticism could reduce my sentence?"
"It just hasn't passed yet! Those who could have passed would have already left," the young man said helplessly.
"I don't want to waste my brain cells, but there are only a few minutes left anyway. You can give it a try," the uncle suggested.
Li Sijing naturally wanted to give it a try. While she was brainstorming ideas, she tried to check the time, but found that she couldn't open the blue screen.
"Why is there a blue screen and I can't open it?" Li Sijing asked the others in a panic.
The young man immediately laughed, "Once you're handcuffed, you can't open it, didn't you know?"
"Otherwise, why do you think there's not a single message about the police station resource monster in the regional channel?"
"If I had known what was going on inside, I would never have come here!" the person sitting opposite complained.
"Don't worry, you'll be back to normal once you leave the police station," the man reassured him.
Li Sijing nodded, relieved, and then focused on writing her self-criticism.
She hadn't expected the activity to be so strange; not only did she have to answer questions, but she also had to write a self-criticism.
Fortunately, compared to advanced mathematics problems, she was quite adept at writing self-criticisms, having written quite a few herself.
After writing a one-page self-criticism, roughly the length of an essay, Li Sijing felt that was about right.
There's no way to check the time, so I don't know how much time has passed.
Following a fellow inmate's suggestion, I summoned the handcuff resource monster and handed in the letter of self-criticism.
After scanning the entire document, the handcuffed resource monster put away the letter of apology and said:
"The written self-criticism was sincere, and a half-hour reduction in sentence is granted."
"Li Sijing has served her full sentence and will be released immediately. Please follow me."
As soon as she finished speaking, the handcuffs on Li Sijing's wrists disappeared, and the people around her watched her leave with envy.
Following the handcuffed resource monster into the hall, just as she was about to leave this awful place, the monster spoke again.
"Given that Li Sijing was detained for more than 10 minutes, compensation will be provided."
[Congratulations on receiving a pair of walkie-talkies from the Handcuff Resource Monster.]
Li Sijing was dumbfounded when she saw the resources that suddenly appeared. It turned out that being detained for a few more minutes would also bring rewards!
If I had known she would wait longer to submit her self-criticism, maybe I could have rewarded her with the bullet she wanted most by keeping her locked up a little longer! The walkie-talkie seems pretty useless.
Unfortunately, there are no "what ifs." She could only put away the walkie-talkie and leave the police station.
