Chapter 133 - Visit to Prison
“Mr. Loong Shen, care to join me for a tour?” Bright and early, Zuo Yi arrived at Loong Shen's quarters, eager to guide him through the prison, though he remained unaware of its contents.
Despite his lack of interest in the prison's offerings, Loong Shen, observing Zuo Yi's enthusiasm, decided not to dismiss him outright. With nothing else occupying his time, he acquiesced to accompany Zuo Yi on the walk.
“Is there anywhere specific you'd like to visit, Mr. Loong Shen?” Along the way, Zuo Yi acquainted Loong Shen with the prison's facilities and recreational amenities, including the cafeteria. However, noticing Loong Shen's apparent disinterest, Zuo Yi, fearing boredom, inquired if there was anything in particular he wished to explore.
Loong Shen cast a casual glance at the expansive basketball court and replied nonchalantly, “No.”
Despite its designation as a basketball court, it was enclosed within iron fences, confining the inmates. A mechanical guard stood sentinel at the entrance.
Several prisoners, upon spotting Zuo Yi passing by the fence, approached and greeted him.
“Xiao Yi, what brings you here today?”
“Aren't you usually cooped up in your little laboratory dissecting corpses?”
“Care to join us for a game?”
“Hey, Xiao Yi, we'd be lonely without you at the court!”
“Absolutely!” “With the Warden's recent patrols, we've been on edge.”
… …
Evidently, Zuo Yi shared an amicable rapport with the inmates, likely due to his role as a prison physician, affording him frequent interactions with them.
“My brother might be in a foul mood today. Be cautious, guys,” Zuo Yi cautioned them with genuine concern.
“Things got worse; I just incapacitated a troublemaker over at the second stadium.”
“Inmates usually give the Warden a hard time, but today, not a soul dares to speak up.”
“The Warden appeared as though he'd been visited by a demon.”
…
Despite the collective complaints from the prisoners, their gaze remained fixed on Loong Shen, his back turned to them. With his long hair and slender frame, they couldn't help but speculate about the kind of person led around by Zuo Yi.
However, when Loong Shen turned to face them, the convicts were collectively taken aback, never anticipating Loong Shen to be male, let alone a strikingly beautiful one. They were utterly dumbfounded.
“Wow! This man is truly exquisite!”
“What's happening? New guard? Lucky us!”
“Could it be Little Wing's assistant? Looks like I need to pay more visits to the infirmary!”
…
A surge of agitation swept through the convicts as they began to shout, eyeing Loong Shen as if he were a piece of meat.
Zuo Yi, aware of their thoughts, approached them with a smile and whispered, “This is my elder sister-in-law. If you continue staring, my elder brother will catch on.”
Zuo Yi's words didn't intimidate them; they knew Zuo Bo could indeed enforce it. Hastily, they covered their eyes, murmuring, “I can't see a thing.”
Nonetheless, they stole glances at the composed Loong Shen through their fingers, marveling at the fact that only Loong Shen could prompt such a declaration from Zuo Yi. The nature of their relationship was undeniable, but what truly astounded them was the warden's unexpected sincerity and integrity.
