Chapter 612 - 10.7 Curiosity Kills The Cat
Christian’s expression was indescribable. It’s like he was talking about someone he hated, yet he also feared them at the same time. "It is—"
His sentence was cut off short by loud incessant beeps. An emotionless voice drifted out from the speaker in the hallway. "First warning for S-27. Don’t spread baseless rumors inside the prison." The sentence was repeated twice more before it became silent. S-27 was exactly Christian’s inmate’s series numbers.
To think that a warning would cut in at such an appropriate time... it seemed like someone had always been monitoring them! Lu Yizhou narrowed his eyes thoughtfully. So Pandora was considered as a baseless rumor for them? No, this demeanor was just like trying to bury some secret matter under the ground!
Christian immediately clicked his jaws shut and his face became ugly. The prisoners who saw this offered one excuse after another before they scrambled back to their cells, leaving Lu Yizhou and Christian alone.
"Satisfied?" The man slammed the door close with his backhand and shot him an icy glare.
Lu Yizhou let out a quiet snort. Satisfied? On the contrary, the doubt and questions he had toward this prison was increasing rapidly. The mystery of Pandora, the strange happenings that the warden said would take place at night and also the song he heard earlier... Alas, in this place, nobody could offer him an answer except Christian, but the man did not look like someone who was willing to cooperate. Not to mention the tight surveillance...
It was surely not impossible to ask 666 to tamper with it for a while. However, it would only generate unnecessary suspicion and bring trouble to himself. Lu Yizhou still had not found a way to deal with the chip on the back of his neck. Judging from the earlier victim, the electricity voltage must be quite high. If he was not careful, he might perish in the warden’s hands before he could get to his lover.
Lu Yizhou shrugged like a naïve newcomer he was. "I was just curious."
"In this place, curiosity kills the cat, newbie..." the corner of Christian’s lips tilted into a dangerous sneer. "...so you’d better live quietly and obediently if you don’t want to be killed." After saying that, Christian brushed past him, bumping into his shoulder along the way, and lay down on the bottom bunk of the bed. "If you grind your teeth, snore, or kick your blanket at night, I will kill you," he added in a threatening tone.
