Chapter 22: Reporting the Source Crystal
Hua Si had no idea that her weak, helpless and pitiful image had already been established in the minds of all the prison guards.

She was pressing her forehead against the wall, silently performing breathing exercises.

Soon, the door of the confinement room opened.

Fang Qiuqiu and Lao Liu walked in.

"7077, after verification by the prison investigation team, you are now fine. You can leave at any time if you want. Officer Fang is here to pick you up." Old Liu bowed slightly, with a kind look on his wrinkled face.

Even though Hua Si was facing away from him and couldn't see him, Lao Liu still had a faint smile on his face.

Fang Qiuqiu rubbed her hands unconsciously and nervously leaned forward to look at the flowers, as if she was a piece of fragile porcelain that would fall apart at any time.

Hua Si rubbed her eyes and turned around. She raised her head and looked at them with fear in her eyes. "7044 and 7039 are here to kill me too, right?"

Looking at the girl's red eyes and listening to the faint tremor in her voice.

Fang Qiuqiu felt that she really deserved to die!
How come when I saw Hua Si, I saw that she was the same as before. I felt that the girl had escaped death twice, but in the end she killed the other person with her own hands. How come she didn't have any psychological trauma?
The girl asked her to lend her some labor time.

She was unwilling to lend her even 100 points.

He even went so far as to avoid inviting the little girl who had escaped death to eat in the cafeteria.

She also lied to her!

"7044 admitted that she had known about Chen Jie and 7012 for a long time because she knew the doctor who sent 7012 to the institute that day. The doctor was a distant relative of hers and knew that she had a good relationship with 7012, so he revealed the news to her."

Old Liu carefully observed Huali's expression, fearing that she would collapse in the next second, and softened his tone again:
"We have also carefully investigated and verified her words. It is indeed as she said. The news was revealed to her by the doctor at the medical station. She admitted that she hoped that you would be hated and excluded by the people in Ward 7, but she did not admit that she knew you had the source crystal, nor did she deny that she wanted to rob you of your money and life. For the time being, we have not found any evidence in this regard."

When Lao Liu said that he couldn't find any evidence, he felt a little guilty.

But he also clearly believed that 7044 was innocent.

"What about 7039? She seemed to have bad intentions towards me as soon as she saw me. She also protected Chen Jie so much. Does she want to kill me to avenge Chen Jie?" Hua Si pinched the little bear's feet tightly, and a thin layer of mist appeared in her eyes.

Old Liu sighed silently, always feeling that if he told the truth, it would hurt the girl's self-esteem.

After all, it wasn't nice to deny her feelings, especially when it made her feel like a sensitive, suspicious person who couldn't stand the slightest disturbance.

But out of duty he still had to say: "7039 was in a bad mood because someone visited her this morning and found out that her husband, who said he would wait for her to be released from prison, was going to marry someone new and had drafted a divorce agreement for her to sign. Chen Jie was the only person who had been kind to her since she went to prison, so she protected Chen Jie and made trouble for you. She also denied it..."

Before Lao Liu could finish his words, Hua Si interrupted him. Her voice was very soft, but it was filled with indescribable sadness.

"But what did I do wrong?"

After saying this, a tear silently slid down from the corner of the girl's eye.

Fang Qiuqiu and Lao Liu were both anxious and frantically looked for tissues.

Fang Qiuqiu quickly handed the tissue to Hua Si, "Don't cry! You didn't do anything wrong. They have been in a closed environment for a long time, so it's inevitable that they will have some psychological problems."

Old Liu also chimed in, "Don't worry, we have already punished them. We will first put them in solitary confinement for three days and then deduct 500 labor points."

Hua Si was very satisfied with the result.

Originally, she relied on the fact that she had almost lost her life due to the prison guards, and she had just graduated from the institute and was still in the novice protection period, so she knew that she would probably be fine, so she pressed the emergency call button. But her watery eyes were full of worry: "Then...what about me?"

Hua is like a good student who is criticized by the teacher for the first time. She wants to listen obediently, but she can't help feeling nervous and helpless.

Seeing this, Old Liu smiled so much that his face wrinkled a little: "Didn't I just say it? If you want to leave, you can leave anytime now. Let Xiao Fang take you back to the cell."

Fang Qiuqiu quickly replied: "Yes, I have submitted the application for you. You don't have to participate in daily labor today. I will treat you to lunch in the cafeteria at noon!"

When these words came out, even Lao Liu looked a little surprised, "Xiao Fang, today you can change your name to Da Fang, can you add me as well?"

Fang Qiuqiu naturally rejected Lao Liu's proposal.

……

……

The three of them left the confinement room together.

Hua Si did not return to Ward No. 7 immediately, but asked about the declaration of valuables. Without asking, both of them knew what Hua Si wanted to declare.

La Huasi sat down on a lounge chair in the office area, and Fang Qiuqiu used the communication bracelet to hand over a valuables declaration form for Huasi. Soon, a mechanical prison guard who was responsible for item inspection came to the office.

Witnessed by everyone, Hua Si took out the box from the little bear's pocket, opened the box and took out the source crystal inside.

The surface of the milky white translucent crystal has a faint fluorescent glow under natural light, which makes people feel peaceful and comfortable.

When Hua Si handed the source crystal to the mechanical inspection prison guard, everyone in the office paused for a moment.

Then, I heard a somewhat disappointing electronic voice:
"No. 7077, your reported item is a source crystal. If you need to conduct an in-depth test on the properties, grade, purity, etc. of the source crystal, you will need to pay 200 labor points."

Seeing that Hua Si was hesitant to speak, Fang Qiuqiu advised: "If you don't do this test, it's the same as not reporting it. But after reporting it, even if it's lost, we will help you find it back. We will find out who it is and ask him to compensate you with a piece of the same quality."

What she didn't say in front of other people was that she would directly absorb the source crystal. Although there was a risk of energy riot, many evolvers were not afraid of this risk in order to become stronger. What's more, the source crystal had no attributes and could be absorbed by any type of evolver.

This is undoubtedly a piece of fat meat for everyone.

This everyone also includes her colleagues.

Even if Yancheng Prison has the ability to suppress the evolvers, it cannot prevent the evolvers from absorbing energy.

"Number 7077, poor people buy lottery tickets, rich people buy insurance. You can't buy a loss or be cheated with 200 labor points. What you buy is this precious source crystal, which belongs to you now and will be your guarantee in the future."

Hua Si listened to the sudden lame sales talk with a sad expression: "We poor people live by luck and destiny. If we want to have a future, we need good people willing to help us."

The flower-like hint couldn't be more obvious.

Fang Qiuqiu, who had just decided to be generous, felt the veins on her forehead throbbing, and then she heard the flower calling her name.

"Sister Qiuqiu, can you lend me 200 labor points first?"
