My Cell Prison-Chapter 1251 - 1250: Late Night Visitor

Late at night

Secret Department Pharmacy Division

Han Dong, the newly promoted pharmacist of the Secret Department, was arranged to rest here.

Although Sir Yan considered that the compartment was a bit too small and the accessories rather shabby, not quite befitting Han Dong’s ’status’, he invited him to share his room for rest, and they could continue discussing the matter of the ’rebels’.

However, Han Dong tactfully refused, wishing to rest alone.

Inside the compartment, Han Dong remained awake, clutching the Inheritance Pearl Body that had fallen from Academician Du’s body, contemplating certain matters as he lay in bed.

"Removing the chains is bound to be a major project, requiring not only the use of Togu’s special traits and my authority but also a substantial amount of power for support.

I’ll borrow some manpower from the Tomb Lord tomorrow, or ask the Doctor for help. It should be possible to provide enough steam power through the Ministry of Works.

Once successful, I will be able to fully enjoy the fruits of my labor from these past months... At the same time, it’s also time to consider the matter of Opening the gate.

Every bit of talent I have been assigned should play a unique role when Opening the gate.

I’m quite looking forward to seeing what form the opening of the Fate System will take; I aim to reach the level of an Element Body in one go, borrowing the experience of Opening the gate in the Corpse Country."

Just then.

The bedside candle flickered slightly, and as a shadow flashed past, something eerie occurred.

Sshh sshh sshh~ Strands of black hair, like living creatures, seeped through the cracks of the window into the room.

Like shed hair, they all fell to the floor.

As the hair piled up to a certain thickness, something slowly bulged from the center... As it rose, the brightness of the candles in the room was restrained to a minimum.

Through the gaps between the strands of hair, the bulged object suddenly revealed itself to be a pale female head.

Han Dong appeared unaffected by the situation before him, asking seriously, "What, you’ve detected an intruder?"

"What intruder? The outer yard of the Secret Department is protected by several kinds of Barriers, and there are also a lot of sentient zombie Minions... Not even a fly can get in, let alone an intruder.

So boring, I want to go back to the prison to rest."

The head corresponded to none other than Miss Chen Li.

Chen Li, having completely transformed into a [Ghost] through suicide, was no longer constrained by her physical body and could move around using her hair as a medium.

Moreover, with the experience of Yin Yang Road, and mingling with the residual consciousness of countless fierce ghosts, Chen Li’s personality had changed... She had become much more outgoing from her previous introversion, and even unwittingly emitted a sense of resentment.

Rustle rustle~ The black hair intertwined

Constructing a flawless white body which connected perfectly with the head.

In overall appearance and temperament, she looked like a highly maintained and strong woman who had never been involved with the opposite sex.

Since she hadn’t yet been taken back to the prison, Chen Li climbed onto the bed, bringing her head close to Han Dong.

"Aren’t you going to let me go back? Or do you want to sleep with me... Nicole is watching everything from inside your head, aren’t you embarrassed?"

"I can freely shut off communications between the prison and the outside world."

Hearing Han Dong say this.

Chen Li suddenly felt a strange sensation, and the part of her that symbolized ’Lust and Sin’ began to grow rapidly. Strands of her soft, cold hair began to stick to the other’s body.

"So you really do want to sleep with me... Don’t we have important things to do tomorrow?

Although I myself have never had intimate contact between a man and a woman, the chaotic consciousness mixed in my head contains knowledge of this aspect, and it seems quite interesting.

If it’s feasible tomorrow, let’s do it."

Just as Chen Li was leaning forward and they were about to come into contact.

Bang!

She slammed heavily against the walls of the prison.

Chen Li, inflamed by the sudden change, pulled out a long knife, ready to question what was wrong with Han Dong when a voice came from around the prison:

"Someone is coming, stay in prison for now."

"How is that possible... I clearly set some hair in different areas; I should feel it if any zombies came close."

"The opponent is not a zombie, not even a physical entity, so it’s difficult for me to pinpoint their location; I can only catch some of their aura.

Alright, call me if you need anything."

The call was cut off.

Chen Li felt an unpleasant sensation in her heart.

It meant she had yet another task she hadn’t accomplished well, and the lustful resentment welling up within her was also hard to release... She could only hack away at the prison walls alone.

However, Chen Li suddenly remembered something and quickly glanced toward the third cell.

Nicole immediately felt a chill, following that unsettling gaze... In the first cell, a black-haired woman with a covered face was waving at her.

Shaking her head vigorously.

The resentful ghostly energy emanating from Chen Li instilled an instinctual fear in Nicole.

She preferred playing with Maritzis [Spotted Toad] who had similar attributes; after all, both were demons who liked slimy things.

But Nicole was powerless to resist as strands of hair had already spread into her cell.

...

On this end of reality.

Han Dong watched the window warily, but his thoughts were interrupted by a feminine cry from his head.

"What is Chen Li doing? Could it be that she’s taking her anger out on Nicole... It should just be play, nothing serious."

Han Dong decisively severed the communication link with the prison and focused on the present.

The reason he had discovered the intruder was due to Chen Li’s ’intimate action’ just now.

Because ghosts and zombies share the same ’Yin Attribute.’

As Chen Li’s strands of hair touched the zombie’s body, they actually mingled with the Corpse Energy inside.

Under the influence of lustful resentment, the zombie body actually transmitted signals to the brain, stimulating the secretion of an extremely rare hormone... which compelled Han Dong to heighten his attention and by chance capture the ’Oddity’ in the air.

If not for the presence of the Oddity, he feared that he would lose a significant portion of his energy tonight, which would hinder tomorrow’s actions.

"Sure enough, they’ve come.

To infiltrate even the inner courtyard of the Secret Department, truly the methods of a different world."

Han Dong quickly put away the Element Body and replaced it with ’Regenerative Chains’ from the Locksmith’s body, pretending to ponder related problems.

The Oddity sensation in the air lasted a full half-hour before completely disappearing without a trace.

"Now I can be sure, finally I can get a good night’s sleep... See you tomorrow."

The reason Han Dong hadn’t slept was precisely because he was waiting for the intruder to sneak in.

As long as this was confirmed, he could be reasonably certain that in the audience with the Saint tomorrow, he would meet the intruder.

...

The next day

At the Tai Chi Gate.

Sir Yan, using ’a major breakthrough in corpse bug research’ and ’sampling and analysis of the chain area’ as reasons, submitted a document for an audience with the Saint, and also planned to take Han Dong along for the audience, as both incidents were closely related to Han Dong.

Within less than half an incense stick’s time, the Brocade Robe Guards sent back a notification that the Tai Chi Gate deep inside was opening.

Just as Han Dong stepped onto the steps in front of Taiji Palace.

The Tai Chi Gate behind him unexpectedly opened again, and a wave of heat came rushing out.

"So strong! Such scorching Corpse Energy... It’s my first time seeing it."

Even without turning around, Han Dong could feel the intensity of the other party through the heat wave.

Sir Yan walking in front had an extremely unpleasant expression, recalling what Han Dong had said the day before, which was that a traitor would come for the audience with the Saint.

"Ministry of War - Shentu Yang! Mr. Han, is this person the traitor you mentioned?"
