Chapter 24 Eat Melon
Seeing that Fang Qiuqiu didn't want to stay here any longer, Hua Si felt that the purpose of this trip had been achieved and she had no intention of staying here any longer. She followed Fang Qiuqiu out of the prison guard office obediently and sensibly.

She knew when to quit and was very sensible about the situation. She didn't even mention having lunch before 11 o'clock, which didn't fit in with her meal schedule at all.

I was just about to change the topic from Ward 9 to the young man just now.

Fang Qiuqiu asked first: "What do you think of the boy just now?"

Hua Si recalled carefully. The boy had delicate features and fair skin. If one ignored the look in his eyes and replaced it with another expression, many people would probably drown in the boy's eyes.

"If he killed someone? Do you still think he's good-looking?"

Hua Si nodded: "Yeah, it looks good, and doing bad things won't make you ugly."

Hearing Hua Si's as-it-is-a-right answer, Fang Qiuqiu almost couldn't control her temper.

But then the girl continued, "However, if he dares to touch my people, I will send him back to the universe, no matter if it looks good or not."

Just like she didn't take Hua Si's words about repaying her after becoming an evolver seriously, Fang Qiuqiu didn't take Hua Si's words seriously either.

"What if those people he killed had nothing to do with you?"

Hua seemed puzzled: "What does he have to do with me?"

Just when Fang Qiuqiu was about to ask whether the young man had killed many people and why all the prison guards were so angry just now, he sighed heavily.

"Forget it, let's not talk about this. You only have Master Fu in your heart. I shouldn't ask you this question."

Huasi: “…”

So, is she destined not to be able to eat this melon?
However, she was neither obsessed nor regretful about it. She even quickly put the melon behind her because she and Fang Qiuqiu came to the cafeteria.

As a country bumpkin who was visiting here for the first time, Hua Si's eyes never left the huge electronic screen at the ordering entrance.

Braised pig's trotters, peppered pork tripe and chicken, steamed grouper, sweet and sour carp, Lingnan roast goose, white-cut chicken, dried scallops and shark's fin, Maoxuewang, Longjing shrimp, hot and sour pork intestines.
Staring at these pictures, Hua Si's eyes turned red, as if she was afraid of disturbing these delicacies and making them fly away. Hua Si asked very carefully: "Sister Qiuqiu, can I eat all these delicious foods?"

Fang Qiuqiu: “!!!”

Does she look like a rich enemy?
She understood that Fang Qiuqiu had lent her 200 labor points. Now any one of these dishes would cost or labor points, and she definitely couldn't afford to cook all of them.

Hua Si didn't even think about it and immediately plucked Fang Qiuqiu bald.

I felt very considerate and said, "Sister Qiuqiu, I remember you said that dinner in the cafeteria is expensive. Now you are treating me to lunch, but don't order too much and waste it. Just order that, that..."

Looking at Huasi's little hand nodding continuously, Fang Qiuqiu couldn't stand it anymore, so she grabbed Huasi's hand and pressed it down hard.

"you shut up!"

In the end, Fang Qiuqiu didn't even give Hua Si a chance to order food. She immediately ordered a few dishes and pulled her to sit at the dining table.

In order to divert Huashi's attention, and seeing that there was no one around, she became serious: "Why didn't you tell me that Master Fu gave you the C-level source crystal? You let everyone know the news, didn't you consider that there would be trouble?"

Hua nodded honestly: "I've considered it."

Fang Qiuqiu glanced at Hua Si as if she had seen a ghost: "If this is the result you considered, I would rather you had not considered it." What's wrong with this result?
This result is exactly what she wanted.

"Sister Qiuqiu, I heard that there are many big turtles in the deep pool of Yancheng Prison. Do you know where the big turtles are?"

Not long after Hua Si finished speaking, Fang Qiuqiu reached out and touched Hua Si's forehead.

"What big turtle? Are you feeling unwell?"

Hua realized that Fang Qiuqiu's expression was not fake. She was really nervous and didn't hear the hidden meaning in her words. She felt a little frustrated.

It seems that I have to put the matter of finding the big turtle aside for the time being and just go fishing for small fish and shrimp to supplement my nutrition.

Soon, their dishes were placed on the dining table by the food delivery robot, along with towels and tableware.

Fang Qiuqiu said: "In Yancheng Prison, as long as there are enough labor points and you don't break the rules in front of the mechanical prison guards, it's actually the same as outside."

"Are the Evolvers in Ward 9 the same as well?"

"Yes." Fang Qiuqiu nodded, "But their activity areas and daily labor tasks are different from yours, so you usually don't see people from Ward 9. Didn't Master Fu tell you that there are also Evolvers imprisoned here?"

After Hua Si cleaned her hands, she grabbed a pig's trotter and chewed it. At the same time, she did not forget to get to the point: "No, is this a secret? I can only know if he tells me."

Seeing Hua Si's ungentlemanly eating manner, Fang Qiuqiu seemed to have found a resonance and also grabbed the remaining pig's trotter and started to chew it.

While chewing, he did not forget to answer the questions that came out of the flowery language: "The fact that there are evolvers in Yancheng Prison is just like the ordinary prisoners here. They either have some connections with aristocratic families or are very capable of making a living outside. More or less, they have had some identities. They are not deliberately concealed, and they are also not disclosed to the public."

Fang Qiuqiu smacked her lips.

As if he thought of something, the pig's trotter in his hand no longer smelled good.

The flowers seemed to have a premonition.

Her melon seemed to be coming back on its own.

As expected, Fang Qiuqiu said, "But because of that kid just now, a group of people are protesting outside and demanding that the prison release him. Now everyone in the entire alliance knows that the Evolvers are detained here."

Hearing the resentment in Fang Qiuqiu's tone, Hua Si quickly ordered a few more dishes for herself and ate while listening to her.

"That guy relied on his good looks, frequent appearances in the Star, and a bunch of brainless fans. Even though he killed more than 30 people, he pretended to sincerely repent in court, explaining that he was awakened by strong stimulation and his spirit was damaged, so he couldn't control himself. A bunch of people pleaded for him."

Although Hua Si was very happy, she still remembered to be a good listener and responded to Fang Qiuqiu at the right time: "Is his case open to the public?"

"No! It was the Bai family of Huadu City who were behind this, leaking the video of him confessing in court. Evolvers don't have the death penalty in the first place, but the Bai family put pressure on everyone and used public opinion to hijack the judiciary, causing the life sentence to be commuted to 20 years. Those idiots outside actually dared to shout for his acquittal!"

Then Fang Qiuqiu said a lot of scattered things, such as how much inconvenience those people's protests had caused her and her colleagues at work, and the boy's bad attitude in prison.

But Hua Si, who was happily eating melons throughout the whole process, only grasped one key point——

If she becomes an Evolved, no one will let her die in the legal sense.
