A “Forbidden Item” that could be ripped apart by hand was definitely not real.

The thousand-people chase ended with a shocking disappointment.

The prisoners looked at the falling pages of the book and started trying to read the words on there.

Their seriousness in reading almost seemed as if they were trying to study health knowledge and plan ahead for their future.

The originally tense and chilling atmosphere suddenly became absurd and funny.

A prisoner squatted in the crowd and picked up a torn piece of paper from the ground, and saw that it wrote, “Eating more vegetables can effectively prevent constipation in middle-aged and elderly people…”

What the fuck is this??

In this mad chase, nearly a thousand people were from the consortiums, but there were also more than three thousand people who didn’t know anything.

When the chase started, they watched hundreds of people rushing out of the crowd, as if they were going to grab something important.

Immediately after, they looked dumbfounded. So, the consortiums sent hundreds of people here just to come after a middle-age health knowledge manual?

Didn’t some people just say that they were after the Forbidden Item ACE-002? Was this it?!

Du Hao and Xie Yinggeng, the two masters sent by the consortiums, suddenly looked at Guo Hucha, “How dare you trick us? Where’s the Forbidden Item?”

Being stared at by hundreds of pairs of eager eyes, Guo Huchan suddenly looked seriously at the remaining pages in his hand, “Look, the book says that if middle-aged people go bald early, they should properly supplement milk, fish, lean meat…Isn’t this more useful than Forbidden Items?”

While talking, he tried to move out of the way.

Before he was able to move more than a few steps, the bald man was surrounded again.

“Where’s the Forbidden Item?” Du Hao said coldly, “If you don’t explain this matter clearly right now and here, you won’t be going anywhere!”

Guo Huchan threw away the paper helplessly and said, “When I ran out of the cell room, I didn’t say that I was taking the Forbidden Item ACE-002, did I? Could it be that you made a mistake?”

Du Hao recalled what happened earlier. Indeed, Guo Huchan did not say anything about the Forbidden Item ACE-002!

“Then why are you holding onto it so tightly?!”

“I’m almost a middle-aged man. Is there anything wrong with studying a little about health?” Guo Huchan lied with a straight face.

“Xu Linsen must have used him to divert everyone’s attention, and then secretly took away the Forbidden Item,” Du Hao analyzed.

“Where’s Xu Linsen?” Xie Yinggeng couldn’t find Xu Linsen either.

Suddenly, everyone slowly pushed toward the bald man, as if they wanted to kill him.

Guo Huchan said sincerely, “Aren’t you afraid of the metal storm above your head if you kill me here? And, will you believe me if I tell you that I am tricked as well?”

“What do you mean?” Xie Yinggeng frowned, and the prisoners stopped their approach. It wasn’t the time to actually take the Forbidden Item yet, so no one wanted to activate the defense mechanism of the prison before that.

Du Hao looked at Guo Huchan, “You said you were tricked too?”

“Someone is pretending to be my boss,” Guo Huchan said, “Although it was chaotic just now, the only alloy gate connecting the prison to the outside didn’t open. If you’re claiming that he’s the one stealing the item, then how did he leave?”

Xie Yinggeng said angrily, “Couldn’t you tell that there’s something fishy about that person? Did you fail to notice anything?”

“I did think it was a bit strange when he handed me that book,” Guo Huchan said, “but I was in the moment…”

“Which fucked up moment were you in?!” Du Hao cursed angrily.

“I’m furious too!” Guo Huchan said.

Now thinking about how he even asked this strange person when humans grow hair, he really wanted to dig a pit and bury himself!

At this moment, the alloy gate of the prison square opened again.

A middle-aged prisoner was escorted in by six mechanical prison guards outside the door.

Many people were stunned because they recognized the identity of this middle-aged man. It was Chen Yu from the Chen Family!

Chen Yu was convicted of murder 11 years ago. He could have been exonerated that year, but the Qing Family found evidence to prove the crime. Abruptly, he was sentenced to 170 years in prison.

This was one of the few members of the consortium locked behind bars, and he was also in charge in Prison 7 for the Chen Family, specializing in doing the dirty work.

He was also one of the few high-leveled masters of the Chen Family.

However, after Chen Yu was escorted in, he first looked around calmly, and his eyes stopped on Xie Yinggeng, “Xiao Xie, come and report the situation.”

Chen Yu seemed relaxed and comfortable coming to the prison, as if he came back home, even though he just got transferred here.

After the mechanical prison guards took off the shackles on his hands and feet, the middle-aged man moved his hands and feet, but found that Xie Yinggeng was still standing where he was, refusing to obey his orders!

“What’s wrong?” Chen Yu frowned, “You don’t know me anymore?”

“Shouldn’t you be in Prison 7 right now?” Xie Yinggeng asked hesitantly.

“Prison 18 is not too peaceful today. The family is afraid that you will not be able to handle everything, so I came to check,” Chen Yu said indifferently.

Guo Huchan whispered next to Xie Yinggeng, “The person who pretended to be my boss before said the same thing… If I were you, I would pinch his face to see if he is wearing a human skin mask.”

At this moment, someone in the crowd suddenly shouted, “He may also be fake, be careful!”

While talking, Xie Yinggeng slowly walked towards Chen Yu, then suddenly stretched out his hand, wanting to pinch his boss’s cheek, “You fucking want to trick me a second time!?”

However, Chen Yu raised his right leg calmly and kicked it out like lightning. Despite being prepared, Xie Yinggeng was still knocked back more than 20 meters!

“Do you have a death wish?” Chen Yu sneered.

“Ouch!” Xie Yinggeng spat out a mouthful of blood, “It’s really Boss Chen. It was a misunderstanding!”

At this moment, Xie Yinggeng really wanted to curse that imposter/ Because of that person, he got fooled twice!

Chen Yu said calmly, “What’s going on?”

Du Hao added an insult to twist the knife, “Xie Yinggeng has been with you for so long in Prison 7, yet he can’t even tell if you’re real or not. I won’t let that slide if I am you.”

Du Hao served the Li Consortium while Chen Yu and Xie Yinggeng served the Chen Consortium. He was naturally happy to watch them fight right now.

Xie Yinggeng still had blood from the corner of his mouth, but when he heard this, he immediately shouted, “Du Hao, you villain!”

“To me, it seems like the Chen Family is the true villain.” Du Hao sneered, “The Qing and Chen Families made an agreement not to send top fighters, but you didn’t keep your word. Chen Yu must have been nearby for a while now, but to keep us Li Family in the dark, you waited until the last day to send him in.”

“Don’t speak so harshly,” Chen Yu glanced at him lightly, “I came to make sure everything will go smoothly, and I don’t plan to participate in your fight to obtain the items.”

Du Hao sneered, no one would believe those words. When the time comes, Chen Yu will definitely make a move.

“Tell me what’s going on first,” Chen Yu asked calmly.

Xie Yinggeng’s subordinates helped explain, “Just before you came in, someone pretended to be Xu Linsen and managed to make quite a scene, so now that you came, Xie Yinggeng must have thought that the person pretended to be you. Moreover, we weren’t told earlier that you’ll be here today…”

“I see. Who told Xie Yinggeng to be careful just now?” Chen Yu frowned and looked at the prisoners, “Step out.”

However, they waited for a long time but no one dared to come out. One prisoner said that the voice came from beside him, but when he turned to look, there was no one around him.

Everyone suddenly thought, could it be the person who pretended to be Xu Linsen?

“Wait,” Guo Huchan said suddenly: “That person should still be in prison! He must be hiding in the crowd!”

As soon as he said so, Du Hao roared loudly, “Whoever finds a stranger here will be rewarded with 100,000 yuan!”

But after searching for a while, they didn’t find any unfamiliar faces.

There were a few people reporting clues during this, but those were later proven to be false.

Things got weird…

Thousands of people searched everywhere, but there was not a single stranger in the crowd?!

In fact, not to mention that Du Hao and others didn’t find Qing Chen, even Lin Xiaoxiao and Ye Wan couldn’t find him!

Just when the drama happened, the two hiding in the security room almost died laughing, but when they recovered, they found that Qing Chen had disappeared.

“Boss, where did Qing Chen go?” Lin Xiaoxiao looked around in the crowd and just couldn’t find him.

Li Shutong calmly pointed in one direction and said, “He has changed into the appearance of his classmate.”

Among all the people present, only this master has been paying attention to his student, never taking his eyes off for a moment.

Lin Xiaoxiao followed his fingers and suddenly found that ‘Yu Junyi’, who had been transferred to another prison, was standing in the crowd looking just as confused as the others.
