Chapter 535: Chapter 519: The Joys of Life Lie In...

Liu Yi, a technical prison guard in the Second Prison, immediately realized his phone had been compromised.

Then, he recalled events from the past few days and remembered that slightly embarrassing anonymous text message.

He was 100% loyal to the Minister and didn’t mind at all that the Minister could use it to locate him 24/7.

He was just ashamed of how he got compromised, wondering if it would lower the Minister’s opinion of him.

At that time, it was really just a slip of the hand, definitely not...

Feng Mu seemed to sense something, slowly opened his eyes, and said warmly:

"Locating each of you is because there are so many bad people outside, and in case you lose contact and encounter danger, I can rescue you as quickly as possible. Don’t overthink it."

Liu Yi hurriedly shook his head, then nodded quickly.

He was so anxious his face turned red, tried to say something several times but ultimately didn’t dare to ask.

In the end, he could only sharply turn his head, glaring at Gong Qi in the front passenger seat with eyes burning with shame and anger.

Gong Qi’s mouth spread into a wide, extremely pleased smile.

Of course, he knew what Liu Yi wanted to ask, but he deliberately didn’t say, simply enjoying the sight of his colleague about to implode.

Nowadays, Gong Qi liked being around his junior brother more and more.

The fun was just endless, not only the fun of killing but also unimaginable varieties of fun, living each day to the fullest, not wanting to go back to the dojo at all.

Liu Yi exhaled a long breath and humbly asked Gong Qi:

"Please, you must teach me this skill too, so I can help ease the Minister’s burden."

Liu Yi didn’t specify which skill exactly, perhaps it was the technique to implant the locator, or maybe the thought process behind creating those text messages, or something else entirely.

Gong Qi observed the changes in Liu Yi’s expression, finding it increasingly amusing.

"The subordinates around my junior brother generally aren’t very powerful, but each one is quite interesting. Strange, why didn’t I notice before how entertaining they are?"

Gong Qi squinted slightly, continuing to ponder,

"Perhaps it’s not that they’re inherently interesting, but my junior brother made them interesting, bringing out a fascinating vitality in their otherwise dull lives."

With this thought, a sly smile, like that of a snake, appeared on Gong Qi’s face as he said faintly:

"Alright, I’ll teach you."

Unknowingly, Gong Qi was also being subtly changed.

Once, in his eyes, killing was the most entertaining pastime in this world.

So, he was always enthusiastically involved in every team-building activity organized by the dojo.

He still found killing to be great fun, and the dojo’s gatherings still held deadly allure for him.

But maybe they’re not the most attractive anymore; gradually, his junior brother was becoming the most captivating thing for him.

Moreover, Gong Qi began pondering that, perhaps, instead of the simple act of killing, transforming a person and giving them a unique new life could be more intriguing?

"We’re here."

Liu Yi said softly, smoothly parking the car.

By now, the convoy was very close to the flashing red dot on the navigation system.

It looked like the two Prison Chiefs were in this high-end neighborhood.

Unfortunately, the navigation could only roughly determine the building range they were in, without accurately showing the specific unit or room.

Feng Mu looked out the car window as the outline of upscale residential buildings stood silently in the night.

Under the cloak of darkness, the buildings resembled upstanding coffins, faintly connected to the massive steel structure overhead.

"Check which high-ranking officer in the prison system lives in this area."

Feng Mu said plainly.

Where the high-ranking officers of the prison system live isn’t confidential; after all, everyone belongs to the prison system, and it can be found out with a bit of inquiry.

Gong Qi couldn’t help much in this regard.

Although he was a veteran prison guard in the system, his personal network within it was best left unmentioned.

"The internal inspection system isn’t perfect yet. I still need to input everyone’s address, information, and related personal data in advance."

Gong Qi’s mind raced as he discovered imperfections in his work.

Gong Qi was undoubtedly a genius in computer technology, instantly coming up with numerous improvement ideas:

"The navigation interface is still too simplistic; it should have more functional modules. Ideally, it should always monitor the target’s phone calls, text messages, and be able to detect sensitive words..."

"I need to design a dedicated app for this, hmm, let’s call it DingDing, signifying nailing everyone down like a nail, leaving them no escape."

Within minutes.

Liu Yi turned respectfully to Feng Mu and said:

"Minister, I’ve found it, it’s Station Chief Lou Duan, he lives here."

While speaking, Liu Yi reported the door number he had learned.

With the door number, Gong Qi was useful once again.

He stretched his neck, looking at his junior brother with eagerness, sinisterly saying:

"Minister, just give the word, dead or alive?"

During work, Gong Qi had started to respectfully address his junior brother’s title. It was necessary to "do as the Romans do" in the fervent atmosphere of the Internal Inspection Department, adopting an immersive role play.

When Gong Qi began addressing him as Minister instead of "junior brother," Feng Mu’s mind was clear as a mirror, instantly understanding how eager his senior brother was to lead the mission.

After some time spent together, Feng Mu had come to understand the personalities of the senior brothers and sisters in the dojo more and more.

In other words, he had become increasingly proficient in their "user manuals."

For instance, Master Brother Li Bashan had the strongest combat ability, with a childlike straightforwardness. He wasn’t suited for overly complex tasks, but anything given in simple terms would undoubtedly be accomplished.

Second Sister Liu Xie was decisive with a sense of ferocity; when tasks were entrusted to her, just the outcome needed to be stated, leaving the process for her to handle autonomously.

Third Brother Zhao Zhixin was the most thoughtful; if a task was to be assigned to him, it was best to explain it thoroughly to prevent him from embellishing it himself.

Fourth Brother Yuan Xidi lacked common sense, mainly knowing only how to fight and kill, so his intelligence and methods should be regarded as one would with a hunting dog.

Fifth Brother Gong Qi had the greatest sense of play and liked challenges, with a bit of a perfectionist streak; he was eager for more complex things.

Sixth Brother Wang Yu had a bit of an artistic touch, making his user manual the most challenging, requiring further observation.

Little Sister Hong Ya was the most sweet and adorable, almost always accommodating, a veritable treasure trove and mascot.

Just like now, Feng Mu instructed Gong Qi:

"Alright, this task is entrusted to Fifth Brother. But, for now, don’t kill anyone or alarm them. First, secretly find evidence of their meeting and conspiring to have Prison Director Qian killed. Can you accomplish this, Senior Brother?"

Listening to the task and its various difficulties, the corners of Gong Qi’s mouth curled increasingly upwards, his expression growing ever more sinisterly excited:

"No problem!"

Gong Qi cheerfully got out of the car, leading a few others toward the building. Feng Mu didn’t ask further, showing absolute trust.

Feng Mu himself wasn’t in a rush to get out of the car, instead estimating the time as he took out his phone and made a critically important call.
