Chapter 59
"Aaaaah!"
The Glasses Man threw his head back and let out a blood-curdling scream.
His face was disintegrating at a visibly rapid pace.
The bridge of his nose had turned to mush, constantly sloughing off.
His lips detached from his face, exposing the teeth underneath.
His cheeks looked as if someone had violently torn off the skin, leaving a bloody mess that emitted a foul, burnt odor.
He wanted to touch his face but didn't dare.
He fell to his knees in agony, screaming his lungs out.
Soon after, he died from the pain, collapsing stiffly to the ground.
By now, his face was completely unrecognizable, a horrific sight to behold.
Even his own mother wouldn't have been able to identify him.
Most of the people present recoiled several steps at the gruesome scene.
"Third Brother, he's the younger brother of Master Jiang's right-hand man. You've done this to him - won't Master Jiang give you trouble for it?"
"What's there to fear? Do you really think Master Jiang would punish me over a useless waste who can't do anything?"
Li Sanqing sneered, his face full of arrogance.
Zhang Zhao, the Strength-type Ability User, shook his head.
"That settles it then. Drag the body out and feed it to the dogs. We'll say it was done by those people from before. If any of you dare to speak of this, you'll be the next one to end up like him, understood?"
Li Sanqing shot a vicious glare at the others present, frightening them into silence.
"Alright, I'm going to report to Master Jiang about what just happened. You lot increase the manpower and search the surrounding areas again."
"Yes, sir."
Li Sanqing was quite pleased with the group's fear of him.
He left with a cold snort.
Two burly men were cleaning up the scene while chatting in hushed tones.
"Tsk, tsk. When Li Sanqing was serving time in prison before, he wouldn't dare make a peep when others bullied him. Now look at him, drunk on his little bit of power, throwing his weight around."
"What can you do? Who'd have thought he'd have such dumb luck, suddenly developing the ability to release poison? That power is no joke!"
"Hey, by the way, why was he in prison before?"
"I've only heard rumors, mind you. They say his wife despised him for being short, ugly, and poor, so she had an affair."
"He endured it for a while, but his wife not only didn't come to her senses, she even became bold enough to bring her lover home. They did... you know what, right in front of him, and even mocked him together."
"Well, that drove him mad, you see."
"He went straight to the kitchen, grabbed a cleaver, and hacked them both to death."
"When the police arrived, the whole room was covered in blood. Those two had been chopped into mincemeat."
"Hiss~ That's terrifying!"
"That's why they say you shouldn't bully the quiet ones. When they snap, it's deadly."
"Absolutely terrifying! Let's stop talking about this. If someone overhears and tells Li Sanqing we were gossiping about him, we're done for."
"Right, right. Loose lips sink ships..."
Meanwhile, in a civilian house several hundred meters behind the right side of the prison.
"Kid, are you sure you want me to dress up like this?"
Nie Yizhou pointed at himself, his expression one of utter despair.
Lu Chen glanced at him and immediately raised a fist to his mouth, coughing lightly.
A flicker of an unnatural expression crossed his face.
Seeing Lu Chen trying to suppress his laughter, Nie Yizhou's face darkened even more.
"Kid, do I really have to wear all this?"
He tugged at the wig on his head, wailing.
"And by the way, what kind of weird stuff have you been collecting? How do you even have a wig?"
"I think you look great in it,"
Yun Xiaoxiao said, folding her arms and rubbing her chin, nodding in satisfaction.
Dressed in a tight-fitting leather dress, with long, wavy chestnut-colored hair, and a pair of red high heels, Nie Yizhou had transformed into a long-legged beauty.
Except for his slightly dark skin, everything else was perfect!
"Oh, did you put on what I told you to earlier?"
"Of course I did. How else would they be this big?"
Nie Yizhou rolled his eyes and cupped the two large mounds on his chest.
"Oh, I almost forgot. Here's this too."
Yun Xiaoxiao took out a bottle of perfume and beckoned Nie Yizhou to crouch down.
"What now?"
Nie Yizhou rolled his eyes again. "I don't want to spray on that girly stuff."
But catching Yun Xiaoxiao's big-eyed gaze, he irritably ran a hand through the wig and bent down.
"Just a little bit, okay?"
"Relax, relax. I promise not to overdo it."
Yun Xiaoxiao sprayed a bit on his neck.
"There! All done!"
"Brother Yizhou, if I were a man, I'd be totally smitten by you!"
Yun Xiaoxiao pressed her lips together and raised her eyebrows.
Nie Yizhou's mouth twitched.
Yun Xiaoxiao smiled sweetly again. "Brother Yizhou, I'm sorry for putting you through this. You shouldn't have any problems with this mission, right?"
Even though he knew her flattery was poisonous, hearing that soft "Brother Yizhou" made Nie Yizhou give in.
"Don't worry, I'll definitely complete the mission."
He sighed.
"Well... I'm off then."
"Go on, go on. Come back soon, okay~"
Yun Xiaoxiao waved with a beaming smile.
Nie Yizhou resignedly looked down at his chest, then put on an expression of tragic heroism, as if marching to his death. He took a deep breath and vanished.
Inside the prison, in a deserted corner.
The cross-dressing Nie Yizhou suddenly appeared.
He had barely steadied himself when footsteps sounded behind him.
"Hey, you there! Stop!"
Nie Yizhou's first instinct was to run, but remembering his mission and current disguise, he quickly steadied himself.
"What are you doing out here? Get back inside!"
A man carrying a gun approached.
Nie Yizhou suddenly started crying in a falsetto voice.
His shoulders shook as he sobbed, looking quite pitiful.
The man frowned, "I didn't do anything to you, why are you crying?"
Nie Yizhou took the opportunity to lean on the man's shoulder, rolling his eyes and making a disgusted expression as if about to vomit.
But when he spoke, it was in a coquettish falsetto.
"I... I miss home. Big brother, I'm so scared. Can you protect me?"
He cried as he spoke, intentionally pressing his cotton-stuffed chest against the man.
The alluring perfume scent, combined with Nie Yizhou's deliberate nuzzling, quickly made the man's voice turn husky.
"Little sister, you smell so good."
The man grabbed Nie Yizhou's bottom.
Nie Yizhou almost jumped, desperately wanting to slaughter the man for his wandering hands.
He held back again and again, barely managing not to lash out.
He said in his falsetto, "Big brother, I heard there was a thief here tonight. Does that mean we won't have anything to eat from now on?"
"How could that be? We only lost one truckload of supplies that we'd just recovered. Don't worry, you won't go hungry. If you secretly spend some time with big brother a few times, I'll make sure to save you a portion of food in the future. I promise you won't go hungry."
As he spoke, the man's hands started wandering again.
Nie Yizhou nearly threw up.
He quickly held the man's hands still.
Feigning confusion, he asked, "Really? But I just saw a small dark figure heading towards where the supplies are kept."
"Are you telling the truth?!"
The man immediately stopped his wandering hands, his eyes widening.
Nie Yizhou nodded sincerely, "Absolutely true."
