The night was already deep, Xie Yuanyuan was nestled on the beam, staring blankly at the ceiling for a long time, and finally sighed and turned over lightly.
If the female prisoners can still retain some dignity because of their gender, then there is no need to say anything else for the male prisoners. Xie Yuanyuan watched helplessly as the prisoners who were with him had all their hair shaved off and then had to be rinsed and disinfected with harsh chlorine solution. Then, they put on prison uniforms that had been washed white with disinfectant. It looked like they were clothes that had been ripped off corpses and reused. No matter how many pungent chemicals were used to cover them up, the deep-rooted fishy smell could not be eliminated.
Then, each of them was given a number by skilled tattoo workers, like qualified pigs, cattle and sheep in a slaughterhouse. A number was tattooed on the inside of their arms, and they gave up their names, identities, and everything in the past.
This is just the beginning, Xie Yuanyuan thought silently in his heart. He was mentally prepared. This is just the beginning.
Towards evening they were herded into the prisoners' barracks. Here, a room has to accommodate 90 to 300 people. The space is small and the environment is stuffy. Everyone is pressed to the ground, almost lying head to toe and hands to legs. Xie Yuanyuan had to rush to the rafter, his attributes were suppressed. Fortunately, the foundation of stealth assassination was still there. Even a narrow piece of wood was much better than the can of human flesh underneath.
I haven't seen the others yet, Xie Yuanyuan said secretly, I have seen my sister, but the remaining two are still missing, and other players in this world have no chance to meet...
He sighed softly, feeling extremely stressed.
Xie Yuanyuan grew up under the independent care of the Department for the Protection of Vulnerable Groups. He has no parents and no knowledge of his hometown, just like all the orphans with unknown origins in the world. He studied alone, ate alone, slept alone, and lived like a transparent plant. More than ten years passed in a flash. His life is simple and straightforward, so what if his physique is different from ordinary people? Life is not about to go on.
However, in this game, somehow, he accidentally followed the other three people and became a part of the team. In just a few months, he gained friendship and love that he had not experienced in the past ten years, and experienced a magnificent and legendary adventure that he had not experienced in the past ten years. Slowly, Xie Yuanyuan was able to feel some vague emotions that were similar to others.
"Humans are creatures that need freedom, dignity, and love." He put his arms under his head and sighed again, "It's nothing like this now."
The people below couldn't sleep, and Xie Yuanyuan was lying on the beam, making it even more difficult to fall asleep. Even if he is a transparent person that no one can detect, he cannot consider himself a bystander in the fifth world. Moreover, even if he wants to help these people, he has no clue...
"It would be great if there were communication tools." He frowned, looking at the gap in the brick wall above his head, where a small black insect was crawling around inside. "As long as there are communication tools, I can communicate with you." Contact other people, and then learn more about the situation, and then help them know more about the situation... No matter what, it won't be like now, with a black eye."
He turned over and stuck his face halfway out from the beam. He took the opportunity to observe the prisoners below, trying to find the shadow of one or two players among them, but he failed. There were at least a hundred people crammed into this Datong bunkhouse. Of the twenty prisoners' bodies, even if his eyes could see in the darkness, all he could see were strips of flesh like stacked vines, and nothing else could be seen at all.
Xie Yuanyuan turned his face dejectedly and continued to watch the busy track of the little bug - it was really a wonder in the world. Before this, he had never thought that one day, people would actually envy the bug that could only live and die day and night, just because it had air. Something as common as air, yet as essential as air: freedom.
While he was still thinking wildly, a loud and harsh trumpet sound suddenly sounded in the barracks. The silent midnight was suddenly broken. Xie Yuanyuan trembled with fright. He straightened up from the wooden beam and looked blankly at the small window. .
"What...what do you mean, are the enemies attacking?" He was ready, planning to roll down from above at any time. At this moment, a loud noise came from outside the door, and then, the guard held a rubber stick and struck heavily. He hit the door wall and shouted loudly: "Get out of here, you bunch of pigs, your name is called!"
"Roll call?!" Xie Yuanyuan shouted, "But now..."
He clicked on the system and said, "But it's three o'clock in the morning!"
Prisoners who are new to the prison are not used to this extremely harsh wake-up time, so they will inevitably be slapped several times with a rubber baton. They were like a group of domestic dogs that were rushed out to watch the night in the middle of the night. They didn't even dare to say a word. They just clamped their tails and filed out of the room where they had rested for a while. They walked to the barracks and lined up to wait. .
Xie Yuanyuan sat on the beam in silence, staring for a long time, still planning to go down and have a look, maybe he could find new companions.
The bright light of the searchlight illuminated the open space in front of the barracks as bright as day. The prisoners stood there sleepily, being ordered by the prison head to line up according to their height. If they were not careful, they would be punched in the face. Xie Yuanyuan burrowed in and out of the crowd, sneaking from one formation to another. As he glanced back and forth, he saw several men with very different temperaments. He knew they were players at a glance, but he didn't smell the willow and didn't know. He Qin was not found.
"No..." He was a little disappointed and wanted to go to the female prisoner to find Du Zijun. At this time, there was a sudden commotion in front of him. Xie Yuanyuan looked at it blankly and found that it was a young man whose glasses had been knocked off. He crawled on the ground and groped around, so the prison head in front of him also watched his whereabouts and kicked and cursed him. Suddenly, a hand stretched out from the thorn, first handed him his glasses, and then pulled him up, forcing him to quickly stand upright in the team.
"I'm going to kill you..." Xie Yuanyuan heard the owner of that hand mutter and curse, "You're so cruel, I really want to give you two ears of wax..."
This distinctive dialect... Xie Yuanyuan was shocked and couldn't help but said: "Chi... Chi Qingliu!"
Chi Qingliu suddenly raised his head. He seemed to hear someone calling him, but he was not sure whether this was an illusion that he had not yet woken up.
"Who?" he whispered alertly, "Friends on which road?"
Xie Yuanyuan thought for a while, got closer, and lowered his voice and asked, "President Chi, can you hear me?"
Chi Qingliu felt as if he was blind.
He clearly heard someone calling him, but he didn't know where the voice came from, and he couldn't even see a person.
"What is it?" He was confused, and the dialect came out again, "This is..."
"I... forget it, it doesn't matter if you can't see," Xie Yuanyuan scratched his hair, "I'm a member of No Sleeper, you just stand there and concentrate on calling the roll call. I've been looking for a day, and finally I found someone who can speak for me. That’s right, hehe.”
Chi Qingliu frowned slightly. He was wearing a prison uniform and was not used to the life of a prisoner who was shouted at, beaten, and pushed around. Therefore, he ignored the prisoner leader who was watching eagerly in front of him and patrolled back and forth. He opened his mouth and said: "Nothing." People fall asleep? Are you here too?"
It was not that he had never doubted Xie Yuanyuan's identity, but he could not detect the presence of the person coming after he looked around. He understood the evil ways of this young man, and immediately realized that he should be the most mysterious captain in No Man Sleeps. .
"Yes," Xie Yuanyuan seized the opportunity to inquire about the news, "President Chi, have you seen the first and second place in our team?"
He Qin and Wen Zheliu have been the top two players on the rankings for a long time. Even if they were squeezed out by the fire of the world in the fourth world, as long as they are ranked first or second, the players will still default to the identities of these two players. .
"I haven't seen them," Chi Qingliu looked straight ahead and replied decisively, "I will definitely have an impression if I see them. Look again, there are no prisoners among them. Then they are either non-commissioned officers or they are locked up somewhere. , haven’t escaped yet.”
"Ah, why are there still sergeants?" Xie Yuanyuan was a little confused, "I thought everyone was a prisoner!"
"You are so naive, young man," Chi Qingliu said, "People are different. Flowers come in all kinds of colors. Some people are born with good luck. Of the three people in our group, one of them was assigned the status of an official. Now he is with the female prisoner. side… "
"Female prisoner," Xie Yuanyuan's heart moved, "What's her name? We have someone who is also in the female prisoner."
"Du Zijun, right?" Chi Qingliu said, "He is a powerful character. Okay, the girl in our team is Qin Ying, and she is a prisoner. Let's help each other."
Xie Yuanyuan breathed a sigh of relief. After all, he was the leader of a large group and he just knew the general situation.
"Okay, I'll make a note of it and tell him when the time comes." Xie Yuanyuan nodded, "Thank you, President Chi!"
Seeing that he was just leaving as soon as he said it, Chi Qingliu quickly called out: "Hey, little brother! Don't leave in a hurry!"
So Xie Yuanyuan came back stupidly and asked: "What's the matter!"
Chi Qingliu said: "There are three people in our team. In addition to me and Qin Ying, there is also a boy named Gu Xi. He is fair and has a small scar at the corner of his mouth. You can tell at a glance. He is a doctor. I I don’t know if he will be regarded as a special talent and slipped away. When you see him, be sure to tell him... Come on!"
Chi Qingliu shouted at the roll call, and then said to Xie Yuanyuan: "... If you see him, be sure to tell him, don't rush to show off your talents and rush into the enemy. This ghost place is a bit evil. Consider it as appropriate. . And there is... "
"Hmm," Xie Yuanyuan wrote down honestly, "What else?"
"Take care of yourself," Chi Qingliu's voice lowered a few degrees, "I'm not around, don't show off in everything, and don't be stubborn. If someone bullies you, tell me later, and I will let the jade lion crush him to death."
Xie Yuanyuan: "..."
Why do I feel like the atmosphere is weird
However, he was an honest kid after all. After a pause, he agreed: "Okay, if I find him, I will tell him. I'm leaving first!"
In just one breath, when Chi Qingliu tentatively called for someone to come, he had already dissolved into the cool and cold air of early spring like a wisp of silent night wind.
Xie Yuanyuan followed the patrol route of the guards and reached the female prisoners' barracks. On the way, he didn't see the officer that day, nor any other leadership figures. He successfully climbed over the wall and fence and landed in the female prisoner's camp.
The female prisoners here also changed into prison uniforms. In order to facilitate their work and unify their identities, they also wore headscarves on their heads. Xie Yuanyuan looked around and couldn't find Du Zijun, so he had to use the old method and continue to sneak into the square and search one by one.
Finally, he found Du Zijun in a corner.
To be fair, Du Zijun's height as a woman is considered tall for her gender, but he is standing in this inconspicuous corner, as if someone wants to hide him.
"Sister!" Xie Yuanyuan was extremely happy, wagging his tail and walked up to her, "You are here, I have been looking for you for a long time!"
Du Zijun's body paused slightly, his lips did not move, his expression remained unchanged and he whispered softly: "Why are you here."
"I'm here to see if you have any news about anyone else." Xie Yuanyuan told him what Chi Qingliu said, "You have a guard here who is a player and should be able to cooperate. .”
"Okay, I understand." Du Zijun nodded, "Have you found Wen Zheliu and the others?"
"No." Xie Yuanyuan was confused, "I asked President Chi, and he said that if there are no prisoners, then they are either officers, or they are locked up somewhere and have not been released yet. I thought, Do I have to go and have a look around where the officers live..."
"Don't go." Du Zijun said bluntly, "Until the situation is clear, you'd better stay where you are and don't let me run around. Whenever one of them is free, they will find a way to contact them. Ours, you have to wait for me.”
Xie Yuanyuan was not convinced: "But, others can't find me..."
Du Zijun scolded softly: "Idiot! I wanted to say it the first night, you are too easy to get hot-headed, and others can stand still. Why are you just thinking about killing NPCs? Know yourself and the enemy and you will never be in danger. You know your enemy now, Do you know their purpose, means, and specific strength? You haven’t figured out any of them, so you have to rely on your own physical fitness to run around. I think you haven’t learned enough lessons!”
Xie Yuanyuan suddenly didn't dare to say anything. Du Zijun took a deep breath. There was a lot of movement on his side, and some female prisoners had already glanced at the corner where he was.
"In short," he softened his tone, "just wait patiently. If you are not sure enough, it is best not to take action. Even if you want to kill someone, do it in a concealed manner. You are an assassin. You don't need to teach me this. Bar?"
Xie Yuanyuan responded with a dull voice, his head drooping.
"The name of the head nurse guarding the female prisoners is Marcel Knissler. Remember," Du Zijun said, "before she comes to check the number of people, leave quickly. Go back to your place now, quickly!"

Being urged like this, Xie Yuanyuan panicked for no reason. He quickly ran back to the fence. As soon as he turned over, he saw an officer leaning against a house not far away and smoking.
In the dark night, the cigarette butt in his hand flickered, giving off a scarlet luster. Xie Yuanyuan didn't want to get entangled with him anymore, and was about to leave directly, when he suddenly heard a voice, hoarse and smooth like a poisonous snake, and passed around him in a sticky manner. of auricle.
"Hey, over there." Hearing this greeting, Xie Yuanyuan turned around subconsciously and saw the officer straightening up and looking towards him! "You are a prisoner, why are you running around?"
Xie Yuanyuan was stunned as if he had been hit hard by a hammer.
He opened his mouth, curled his fingers sluggishly for a while, and then hesitantly raised them and pointed at himself.
"Are you talking about me?"
On the officer's shoulder, two gold stars shone brightly under the strong white light that shot back and forth. He took a few steps forward, but did not get completely close to Xie Yuanyuan.
"I am indeed talking to you, prisoner," he said coldly. "Is there a second person here?"

By the way, Chi Qingliu’s identity is set as 1嚯嚯嚯 in Sichuan and Chongqing.
