This was the first time that Cesar felt so regretful for not having read the popular manga "Absolute Talent".

He had suffered from a very rare disease in the New Century since he was a child, and his immunity was extremely poor. He almost grew up soaking in medicine jars. However, just one week before his seventeenth birthday, he received a contract invitation from the will of the comic "Absolute Talent".

——He will wear a high-risk comic and become one of the many nameless cannon fodder characters in it.

As long as his popularity ranks first among all comic characters when the comic is finished, he will no longer have to worry about the disease and can choose to return to reality forever.

Fortunately, this new comic is very popular, so even if he hasn't read it, he can still understand some things, such as the existence of a special ability called [Talent] in this world, and the protagonist's name is Xia Zuo Kaili, who is the only survivor of the Kaili family.

César knew that the male protagonist was in prison at this time, and the conversation with the prison guard also confirmed this. As the male protagonist of a comic, the other party would escape sooner or later, and then he could sit back and reap the benefits and leave in the chaos.

But he always likes to keep the initiative in his own hands.

Instead of expecting the male protagonist to take her with him when he escapes, it is better to take the initiative to approach the male protagonist and appear in the comics.

It's clear at a glance which one is better.

So after getting enough information, he chose to go straight to Xia Zuo Kaili's cell.

Probably because they were imprisoned in the same case, Xia Zuo was not far from his original cell. In addition, he had the experience of finding his way the first time, so he quickly arrived near the other party's cell.

The black-haired boy lowered his eyes slightly.

Now that he has come to the protagonist's side, there is no need to worry about his appearance. The will of the comics is consistent with his purpose, so he won't be too bad after all. As for what to do next, it won't be too late to make a decision after seeing the update.

At that time, he will be able to take advantage of the situation and plan his future path.

The next thing he should consider is what kind of image he should appear in front of the male protagonist.

César listened attentively, and did not hear any extra footsteps. He took off his hat and the large prison guard coat as he walked, and wiped the blood off his cheek with the coat.

He could use the excuse that he was injured if there was blood on his body, but it was hard to explain the spurts of blood on his face.

He didn't know what kind of personality Xia Zuo was, but the male protagonist of a classic hot-blooded comic was always kind, sharp, determined, and probably smart. So, it was better to be cautious just in case.

Xizel lowered his footsteps and came to Xia Zuo's cell door silently.

It was pitch black deep in the cell, and the protagonist he was looking for was sitting with his back to him in a place where the light could reach. It was unknown what he was doing, but he could only hear slight noises.

He seemed to be very focused, and in this situation, one would correspondingly ignore everything outside.

Xizel lightly opened the door lock with the key, slipped in and locked the door again as if nothing had happened, then hid the key in the secret pocket of his clothes, walked silently to Xia Zuo's side, and observed him with his eyes lowered.

The boy with his back to him looked pretty much the same as he knew him, with hard brown hair and slightly red tips, as if they were freshly stained with blood.

This rare and wonderful hair color...it really is the protagonist.

Since the other party is sober, then - wait, what is he doing?

Xia Zuo Kaili, the only male protagonist in "Absolute Talent", a hot-blooded young man who has become famous outside the circle, is now holding a spoon and digging the corner with great effort.

Xizel: “…”

He was silent for a moment, slowly closed his eyes, and opened them again. The scene before him remained unchanged.

Perhaps because the distance was too close, the brown-haired male protagonist finally realized something was wrong and turned around abruptly.

His golden pupils met Xizel's misty blue eyes, which were calm but with a hint of doubt.

The eyes were hazy and gleaming in the dim light, and at first glance they looked like they were covered with a layer of tears.

The brown-haired boy's pupils trembled.

Xizel's eyes darkened slightly, and his fingertips moved slightly. He had already prepared a whole set of words for the male protagonist, but he didn't expect the other party to gasp directly -

"Why are you crying!"

Cesar: “……?”

Tell me clearly, who is crying?

Realizing that the other party had misunderstood him because of his eyes, Xizel said expressionlessly: "You are wrong, I am not crying."

Xia Zuo nodded rapidly: "Yeah, I know, you just had wet eyes."

Xizel: “…”

The male protagonist glanced into the depths of the dark cell, then looked at César, who seemed to have just woken up and walked out from there.

The black-haired boy had beautiful blue eyes wrapped in a layer of mist, just like the rippling surface of a lake under the clear sky. He had a pale complexion and was a little thin. He looked so frail that he needed careful care.

Moreover, that kind of sickly yet noble temperament that is out of place here really resembles those nobles in the central area.

"I'm sorry, it's too dark here. I didn't search carefully. You were wearing all black, so I didn't notice you..." Xia Zuo said with some annoyance.

The male protagonist, who was half a head taller than Xizel, stood up with a determined look and put his hands on his shoulders: "Are you also wrongly imprisoned like me? Don't worry, I will definitely help you escape from this prison!"

The brown-haired boy said seriously, "In the same cell, probably the same case... That's even more reason why I should take you out. We can't let an innocent person take the blame while the real culprit goes unpunished."

After hearing what he said, César realized that this case might be related to the main plot of the comics, and the male protagonist might know who the murderer is.

Not only can I appear on camera but I can also enter the main storyline. This trip is worth it.

However, would the male protagonist of the comic really be so relaxed as to think of a way to leave without even checking the surroundings?

Xizel had reservations about Xia Zuo's attitude.

Realizing that the protagonist's personality seemed different from what he imagined, Xizel changed his strategy and decided to go along with what he said. He lowered his eyes and shook his head gently: "It's okay. I just woke up too."

"What are you doing?"

The black-haired boy looked at the shallow pit on the ground, seemed a little curious, and bent down slightly. The silver cross hanging under the sapphire blue book on his left ear swayed slightly with his movement, reflecting the light from the outside world for a moment.

However, due to cognitive confusion, Xia Zuo directly ignored this special earring. When he heard what Xizel said, he immediately became alert: "I'm digging a tunnel! Don't worry, I observed the soil and it's very soft. This cell is very close to the wall, so it can be dug out before the execution..."

Xizel was silent for a moment and said, "Not a bad idea."

Xia Zuo's eyes lit up and he smiled happily: "Don't praise me, I will continue to work hard!"

Xizel: “…”

Maybe he should consider killing the original male protagonist and taking his place himself.

"By the way, my name is Xia Zuo, what's yours?"

Xia Zuo asked in a friendly tone while working hard on his excavation.

The black-haired boy blinked and said, "Crest. Cecil Crest."

"Okay, I'll remember that, Cesar!"

“…”

Xizel raised his eyebrows slightly, his eyes casually swept across the pit dug by Xia Zuo, and his original plan to cooperate with the male protagonist began to waver.

Not only is he naive and self-acquainted, he also seems a bit stupid. The character of this protagonist makes people doubt his professional ability.

However, he wanted to see how the hero's actions would fail. He didn't think that the hero of a passionate and righteous youth comic would survive a crisis by digging a tunnel. This wasn't a movie like "The Count of Keith" or "The Shawshank Redemption."

He squatted down leisurely and smiled: "Let me help you."

However, before Xizel could reach out his hand, a metallic collision sound was heard in the pit.

Xia Zuo dug the soil twice with his hands in confusion. As the soil was dug away, he discovered a layer of solid metal underneath the soil.

Xia Zuo: “…”

There was a moment of silence in the room.

The black-haired boy curved his misty blue eyes and spoke caringly as if he knew nothing, "Have you encountered any difficulties, Xia Zuo?"

Xia Zuo scratched his head embarrassedly: "...Uh, it seems that we can't get out."

Cesar: “Really? What a pity.”

The brown-haired boy clenched his fist and looked at Xizel soothingly: "I will do what I say. We must escape together."

"It's a pity there's no toilet here." Xia Zuo felt sorry: "Otherwise there would definitely be a sewer pipe, and I could..."

Xizel was silent for a moment, then smiled and changed the subject: "Why don't we think about it from a different angle."

"Look, someone has already escaped from prison, and it's very chaotic outside. We can take advantage of this opportunity to fish in troubled waters. Otherwise, after today, it may not be so easy to escape."

Xia Zuo's eyes lit up: "You're right, this is a good idea!"

In a moment of excitement, he carelessly patted the black-haired boy on the back with his hand, making a "pa" sound.

Xizel, who received a heavy blow from the male protagonist, said: "..."

The weak black-haired boy silently raised his hand to cover his lips. This time he didn't need to use the blade to cut his palm, and large amounts of blood flowed out from between his fingers.

Xia Zuo was horrified: "My friend, what's wrong with you?"

Xizel: “…”

What happened? He almost auto-loaded.

Otherwise, let's put the matter of killing the male protagonist on the agenda.

Fortunately, the protagonist was not really stupid enough. He soon realized that César's body seemed to be weaker than he expected.

Moreover, it seemed that ever since César came here, he could always smell the faint smell of blood.

Could it be that he was injured in the first place?

Xia Zuo suddenly became nervous and criticized himself in his heart. He said honestly: "My talent is [Priest]. It is only D-level now, which has a healing effect. I'm sorry for making you vomit blood just now. I'll heal you QAQ."

As soon as Xia Zuo finished speaking, Xizel felt that the injuries on his body were healed.

"Talents are divided into seven levels from S to F. Starting from level D, each level is divided into three stages. I am at level D, level 2, and will soon be level 1."

Xia Zuo showed a bright smile: "And I'm a super fighter, believe me, I will definitely take you out."

Xizel blinked and chuckled, "Okay."

Although the protagonist's ability is somewhat strange in terms of healing, this ability is very rare, and, since he is a nurse...

The plan of picking up a bound milk seems to be worth considering.
