Heroes' Prison-Chapter 1469 - 1397: Assassinating Huang Yi! Special Agent Operation!
The prison guards quickly escorted Liu Gengxin into a cell, which, unlike Huang Yi’s cell, was not a single room but a mixed room for seven or eight people.
At this moment, his cellmates were all lying on their beds, wearing virtual helmets and immersing themselves in the virtual world, without anyone noticing his arrival.
After the prison guards left, Liu Gengxin went to the toilet in the cell and closed the door.
With a solemn expression, he extended one hand, opened his palm, and brought it to his mouth, mimicking the motion of receiving something, while his other hand stuck two fingers into his mouth.
"Ugh~" His throat reflexively convulsed, and he was actually inducing vomiting.
Soon, he spewed out the contents of his stomach, which were caught in his other hand.
He fiddled with the clump of filth for a moment and then extracted a sealed bag no bigger than a fingernail.
Inside that tiny bag, there was a fine white powder.
Liu Gengxin looked at the small bag, a sinister smile appearing at the corners of his mouth.
The white powder in the bag was a potent poison, and just a few grams were enough to kill someone.
This was the assassination method he believed had the best chance of success.
Before entering Rose Prison, criminals had to undergo thorough searches, strip off all clothes they had worn in, and even be dusted with disinfectant and forcibly scrubbed to ensure no foreign items entered the prison.
In this way, weapons and similar items couldn’t be brought in, making many assassination methods unusable.
And poisoning was undoubtedly the most suitable method; by simply sealing a few grams of poison in a small bag and swallowing it, one could evade the stringent search procedures.
Stomach acids would not corrode the small bag, so the poison posed no threat to him; after entering the prison, he could induce vomiting to retrieve it.
Even if he failed to induce vomiting or if an accident occurred, it didn’t matter. The bag would move through his digestive tract and eventually be expelled, allowing him to obtain it either way.
With the tool acquired, the next step was to carry out the assassination plan.
Liu Gengxin washed his hands clean and carefully concealed the fingernail-sized bag close to his body, then stepped out of the restroom.
He lay down on an empty bed, holding the back of his head, patiently waiting like a venomous snake hidden in the shadows.
Looking through the iron door, he could see directly into Huang Yi’s cell.
Liu Gengxin looked up, eyes slightly narrowed, as if his gaze pierced through the iron door’s obstruction to see Huang Yi inside the cell.
He knew this was the last assassination plan of his life; after poisoning Huang Yi, he wouldn’t survive either.
No matter how meticulous he was, others would invariably trace some clues and eventually suspect him.
He was already prepared to die; after all, the World Federation had nurtured him for so long; it was time to repay.
However, he had no expectations for the impact of this assassination; the fall of the World Federation was inevitable, not something that could be prevented by assassinating a single Huang Yi.
Even if Huang Yi died, the people in the Freedom Organization would continue to follow Huang Yi’s footsteps, and there would be a second Huang Yi, a third Huang Yi, persisting in overthrowing the World Federation.
This assassination was more of a desperate struggle by the World Federation, a drowning man’s last grasp at straws, a frantic action before extinction.
"Ring, ring, ring~" A burst of urgent ringing echoed throughout the dark prison.
It was the meal bell, signaling that the criminals should come out for lunch.
In each cell, signs of waking appeared here and there; many criminals took off their virtual helmets, chatting and laughing as they emerged from their cells, heading to the cafeteria in groups.
Liu Gengxin also left his cell and joined the crowd on the way to the cafeteria.
Like everyone else, he queued up for his meal and then sat quietly in a corner, eating alone.
He appeared indifferent, but was in fact listening intently to all the conversations around him, extracting useful information from their words.
"Brother Yi hasn’t logged off yet!"
"Brother Yi is always so busy; sometimes he skips breakfast entirely. We should bring it to him later!"
"Bloodhoof’s Mystery of Death has been investigated for so long without any progress; I heard Brother Yi has already disbanded the Expedition Group."
"Yesterday, it was my daughter’s twelfth birthday, and she got a perfect score of 100; really hope the World Federation collapses soon. I’m eager to get out of here and go home to see my wife and kids."
...
"Hey! Are you new here?" Suddenly, the area around Liu Gengxin dimmed, surrounded by a group of people.
He looked up to see five or six criminals encircle him, placing their legs on nearby chairs and staring at him with ill intent.
"Yes, yes! I’m the newcomer!" Liu Gengxin quickly put down his chopsticks, retracting his head, and feigned an innocent demeanor.
"The newcomer must understand the rules!" a criminal said, picking up Liu Gengxin’s chopsticks, slowly grabbing a few pieces of chicken bones from the table, and putting them back into his bowl. He then handed the chopsticks to Liu Gengxin and ordered, "Eat them."
Liu Gengxin bit his lip, looking distressed, his face pale and trembling all over, not daring to make a sound.
"Hmm? You won’t eat?" A few criminals suddenly turned cold-faced, loosening their finger joints, making a crisp "pop" sound, as if they were about to hit someone.
"I’ll eat! I’ll eat!" Liu Gengxin hurriedly picked up the chopsticks, grabbed the chicken bones from the bowl, and started chewing hard.
One of the criminals smiled, reached out to ruffle Liu Gengxin’s hair, and said, "Don’t think of this as humiliating you. We’re just giving you a lesson to make you behave. You’re lucky; when Brother Lei was here, newcomers like you would get hit with a board. One beating, and you wouldn’t be able to get out of bed for half a month. Now that Brother Yi is the boss, he’s very easygoing and doesn’t like doing this kind of thing."
"Brother Yi is still in the virtual world, hasn’t logged off to eat. When he logs off later, you should go pay your respects to him!" another criminal said.
"Yes, yes, yes! I will definitely go! Definitely!" Liu Gengxin nodded quickly, meekly.
The few criminals smiled and left, not making things difficult for Liu Gengxin anymore.
Liu Gengxin ate his meal slowly, with his head down, and only left after there were hardly any people left in the cafeteria.
Back in the cell, his roommates had already gone back to bed, wearing virtual helmets to enter the virtual world.
Liu Gengxin continued to lie on his bed, staring at the door of Huang Yi’s cell upstairs through the iron bars.
Suddenly, he saw a criminal carrying a tray come to the door of Huang Yi’s cell and put it inside.
Liu Gengxin felt a sense of relief. It seemed that Huang Yi rarely logged off to go to the cafeteria to eat; often, other criminals brought food to his cell. When he got hungry, he would log off and eat directly from the tray at the door of his cell.
This made it easier to poison!
However, Liu Gengxin held back and did not poison immediately. It was just lunch. If Huang Yi didn’t log off to eat, the cold meal would be replaced with a new hot meal by evening.
So, he had to wait until evening to poison the dinner. This way, there would be nothing else to eat all night, and Huang Yi would have no choice but to eat the dinner.
After a long wait, dinner time finally arrived!
During this time, there was no movement from inside Huang Yi’s cell door, which indicated he had not logged off to eat.
The criminal who had brought the food earlier went again to Huang Yi’s cell door, retrieving the cold meal. The food was indeed untouched, not a single bite taken.
Liu Gengxin clenched his fist, deciding to officially take action!
After eating dinner in the cafeteria, he waited nonchalantly for the criminal delivering dinner to Huang Yi.
He shook his hand, took out a small bag, secretly opened a corner, and hid it in his palm.
"Hey~" Liu Gengxin caught up, tapping the criminal on the shoulder, putting on a smile, and asked, "Brother, are you delivering food to Brother Yi?"
The man turned around, glanced at Liu Gengxin, and nodded, "Yes! Brother Yi didn’t go to the cafeteria this morning; he’ll definitely be hungry tonight. I’m bringing it to him."
"Let me do it! I want to do something for Brother Yi," Liu Gengxin said amiably.
The criminal smiled, shook his head, and said, "No problem. I live close to Brother Yi’s cell anyway, so it’s on my way!"
As he spoke, Liu Gengxin’s other hand swiftly slipped around the other side of his back, sprinkling the poison powder onto the food on the tray, fast as lightning.
The criminal, speaking while turning back to Liu Gengxin, didn’t notice this movement at all due to the visual blind spot.
"Oh, next time then!" Liu Gengxin smiled slightly, nodding casually.
The criminal turned back, carrying the tray and heading toward Huang Yi’s cell, soon disappearing into the darkness of the stairway.
Liu Gengxin returned to his cell, lying in bed, gazing at the door of Huang Yi’s cell.
After a while, the criminal with the tray appeared on the corridor in front of Huang Yi’s cell, walking step by step.
Liu Gengxin watched his steps intently from a distance, his heart rising and falling as if his steps were trampling on it.
Finally, the man reached the door of Huang Yi’s cell, squatted down, and gently placed the tray inside through the iron bars, then stood up and left.
A faint, hard-to-notice smile appeared at the corner of Liu Gengxin’s mouth.
The plan had reached this point, already 99% successful!
This time, Huang Yi was doomed!
In the virtual world, he was the almighty God of Slaughter, able to escape dangerous situations repeatedly, and could resurrect to continue fighting even if he died.
But in the real world, he was not the God of Slaughter. He didn’t have so many skills or talents; he was just like everyone else, a mortal body, if poisoned, he would die.
Huang Yi was destined not to see tomorrow’s sun!
