Since Li Chenqiu's last interrogation, the location of his confinement had changed. Although it was still a prison cell, the outside of the cell had undergone earth-shattering changes.

Beyond the door was no longer a narrow passage, but a long corridor, with Li Chenqiu's cell at the end.

Along the corridor, a soldier with a gun stood every five meters. The walls, made of high-strength steel, gleamed with a bright silver luster under the overhead lights.

In addition, the ceiling of the corridor had bullet-sized holes. In an emergency, these holes would be controlled by AI to automatically fire bullets.

These were nothing to 096 Calamity Water, but they posed a fatal threat to the Chosen One, Li Chenqiu. Forcibly breaking through would definitely expose his identity as a Resurrector, so he had to outsmart them.

Knock, knock, knock!

The prison cell door was knocked from the inside. The soldier standing at the door tapped the display screen on the cell door, and Li Chenqiu's weak face appeared on it.

"What is it?" the soldier asked coldly and unsympathetically.

In the image, Li Chenqiu clutched his stomach and said with a haggard look, "I'm so hungry. Can you give me something to eat?"

The soldier shook his head. "I'm sorry, Officer Ye You requires meals only every two days."

"Then..." Li Chenqiu bent over and continued with a look of reluctance, "I want to see Officer Ye You."

The soldier said coldly, "Officer Ye You is currently not at the Special Abilities Division. When she returns, we will inform her of your request."

Li Chenqiu gritted his teeth and said with a painful expression, "If I can't see Officer Ye You, seeing Officers He Lu and Zheng Kang will also do."

"I'm sorry, all three of them have gone out together and are not at the Special Abilities Division right now."

Upon hearing this, Li Chenqiu's expression froze, and a subtle hint of joy flashed in his deep eyes.

My luck is not bad!

And so, Li Chenqiu began his performance.

"All... all not here?" Li Chenqiu squatted down clutching his stomach, his already pale face becoming even more bloodless.

"Just bear with it. You won't feel hungry after a while," the soldier casually consoled, just as he was about to close the display screen, Li Chenqiu in the screen suddenly cried out in pain.

"Ah!"

Li Chenqiu grabbed his heart with both hands, lying on the ground with a ferocious look, his eyes staring straight at the camera at the prison cell door.

"This..."

The soldier stared blankly at Li Chenqiu, his hand that was about to close the display screen frozen in mid-air.

"What's wrong with you?" the soldier asked in surprise.

"I... I..." Li Chenqiu raised his hand with difficulty, "I... I'm un... comfortable, save... cough, cough, cough!"

Bright red blood gurgled from the corner of Li Chenqiu's mouth, dyeing his neck and collar red like an unstoppable spring.

Seeing this scene, the soldier's eyes widened, and he subconsciously reached for the fingerprint lock on the door, but stopped when he was still one centimeter away, and Ye You's words to him appeared in his mind:

"Do not open the prison cell under any circumstances. Use the prison cell's window conveyor belt to send food."

For a moment, the soldier's hand seemed to be pulled by two forces, moving forward and backward.

This unusual behavior quickly attracted the attention of other soldiers, and soon more than a dozen soldiers surrounded him.

When they saw the scene of Li Chenqiu constantly vomiting blood, they became uneasy.

"This... what's going on? Zhang Xi, what's wrong with Li Chenqiu?" someone asked in surprise.

The guard Zhang Xi looked helplessly at the others, "I don't know... he just said he was hungry, and then... then he vomited blood. What should we do?"

"What should we do? Of course, take him to the infirmary first!"

"We can't open it! Officer Ye You said, no matter what happens, we can't open the prison cell door!"

"Then what should we do? Just watch him like this?"

"That's not good. What if something really happens to Li Chenqiu? We won't be able to explain it!"

Everyone hesitated, and no one dared to make a decision.

Li Chenqiu, who was coughing up blood frantically in the prison cell, darkened his face. He had deliberately coughed up so much blood, but it was useless? Or was his performance not serious enough?

"Fine, then I'll make it more serious," Li Chenqiu said secretly in his heart.

In the next second, Li Chenqiu's pupils trembled violently, and his face suddenly turned from pale to blood red. Deep red lines appeared under his skin, moving like small snakes.

Then, Li Chenqiu closed his eyes, tilted his head, kicked his legs, all in one go.

"Damn, what... what's going on?"

"Should we open it?"

"Open it quickly, or he'll really die!"

At everyone's urging, Zhang Xi stretched out his finger and pressed it.

Beep—unlock successful!

Click!

The moment the door opened, a group of people rushed in and ran to Li Chenqiu's side.

Zhang Xi, who was at the front, knelt on the ground, bent down and put his ear to Li Chenqiu's chest. The next second, he raised his head in astonishment and said in a trembling voice, "It seems... the heartbeat is getting weaker and weaker..."

"Get out of the way!" A soldier pushed Zhang Xi away, crossed his hands and pressed on Li Chenqiu's chest, performing CPR, while shouting loudly, "Find a stretcher, quick!"

"Okay!"

The soldier standing at the door responded and ran out anxiously.

Zhang Xi asked nervously, "How is he?"

"I'm not a professional doctor, how would I know? But the situation shouldn't be very good, I can feel his heartbeat getting weaker and weaker."

Zhang Xi said with some solemnity, "Then... then... then should I give him artificial respiration?"

"Cough, cough!"

Li Chenqiu, who was lying on the ground, coughed violently twice. The originally weak heartbeat gradually became louder, but it was still very weak compared to a normal person.

"My CPR is working, quickly, strike while the iron is hot, quickly do artificial respiration!" The man turned his head and shouted loudly at Zhang Xi.

"Okay!" Zhang Xi nodded blankly and hurriedly knelt beside Li Chenqiu.

Li Chenqiu frowned. Just as he was about to open his mouth to vomit blood, a long-awaited voice came from the prison cell door: "The stretcher is here!"

"Don't do it yet, send him to the infirmary!"

Soon, Li Chenqiu was carried onto a stretcher and left the prison cell.

...

...

On the crowded road, cars were moving slowly, one after another.

The An Tong Si trio's vehicle was also among them.

Zheng Kang sat in the driver's seat, impatiently honking the car horn, complaining, "We've been running around these past few days, and in the end... sigh!"

He Lu, who was sitting in the passenger seat, patted Zheng Kang on the shoulder and comforted him:

"The Strategic Command has spoken, which means that the Li Chenqiu we investigated is definitely fine. Didn't they eliminate the wrong answer for us? What's there to complain about? Maybe the real Calamity Water died in that Netherworld."

Ye You propped her head up and looked out the window, and said coldly, "No matter what, Li Chenqiu still has many suspicious points. We must continue to investigate after he is released. If he really has no problems, then we can say that Calamity Water died in the Nether..."

Ding-ling-ling... Ding-ling-ling...

A ringtone interrupted Ye You's words.
