Sir! Don't close the net!

“Everything in this Teresa prison,” August turned and walked past Li Yili’s side, standing in front of the painting of the One Lord, his hands behind his back.

"These are incredibly outrageous yet cheap conditions. Is it because they're unwilling to accept that they're the only ones who can't be saved?"

Li Yili raised her hand and pressed it against the floor-to-ceiling window, which had become cold due to the torrential rain.

August did not answer Li Yili's question, but simply looked at the painting of the only Lord in front of him.

“However, I have no reason to refuse,” Li Yili tilted her head to look at August, “Right, let me think…”

Li Yili tilted her head to the side.

"Actually, I've always wanted a dog."

The censorship symbols appearing in the chapter description

It's absurd that a name that doesn't violate the rules in the previous chapter is completely blocked in the next chapter that does. Even if I change "奥" to "奥神奇", the backend still recognizes it as a name starting with "奥" that violates the rules, and it won't even refresh the page.

I don't know what to say. By the way, when the ban was first posted, I was complaining to others that it would definitely be delayed. Well, it was delayed until the 30th. I originally thought that the recommendation I finally got could help me stay active for a few days, but it just died out.

Chapter Twenty-One: I Just Want to Put Him in a Powerless Position

"Miss Rebecca, this way, this way!"

"Lady Rebecca, please accept my deepest respect!"

"You bastards, get out of the way of Miss Rebecca of the Yellow Shirts!"

Theresa Prison is more cruel and ruthless than nature. To live in peace, one must risk one's life to earn respect. If one does not earn respect, one will become food for the other respected prisoners in Theresa Prison. Earning respect is not an easy thing.

In Theresa Prison, prisoners determine whether they are worthy of respect primarily by their floor level. The higher the floor, the lower their status and the less of a threat they pose. The way to gain respect for those on higher floors is to beat or kill them, forcing Theresa Prison to reassess their danger level and downgrade their status.

Of course, this also means that we are one step closer to hell.

Rebecca was very unhappy.

She earned the respect of these low-ranking prisoners, but she knew very well that they were not afraid of her power, nor of the Yellow King, which was hardly an organization. What these prisoners feared was the Yellow King who had left a terrible handprint on Theresa Prison.

Damn it—aren't you afraid of me?!

Rebecca gritted her teeth in frustration, but she couldn't yell out loud, after all... she had also scurried out with her tail between her legs last night.

"Get out of here—"

Damn it—his voice cracked!

Rebecca growled and sped up, deliberately shoving aside the prisoners who were trying to move aside, and disappeared into the dark alley.

As an elusive nightmare, although her cell was unlocked, she still enjoyed special treatment as a dangerous prisoner, living in a specially customized cell. To limit her speed, a straight and narrow path led to her cell, and the walls were made of special materials and with a frighteningly smooth surface, covered with some kind of special oil film to prevent her from climbing. Moreover, this oil film emitted a strange smell that masked most of the other smells.

Normally, Rebecca would never enter a cell that looks like it was prepared to trap her to death.

But thanks to these tailor-made benefits, she gained the respect of the prisoners at Theresa Prison as soon as she arrived, after all... the cell doors weren't locked.

"Hmm?" Rebecca sniffed the air around her.

Today, the air leading to her cell seemed to have a different smell, but the strange odor emanating from the oil film prevented her from exploring further. She felt like she would vomit if she smelled it any more. Fortunately, her sense of smell would be impaired for a while every time she walked this path.

"hateful--"

To prevent her from having enough distance to speed up, the narrow path leading to her cell was not long, so she arrived at her dark cell in just a few steps.

Rebecca shook the cell door on her body and was about to sit down when she felt a chill run down her spine. In the darkness, a man's face silently appeared.

"Ah...ah! It's you!"

Rebecca's eyes widened as she saw Li Yili, the very person who had ruthlessly strangled her and kicked her nose twice, standing in the center of her cell, smiling brightly.

Before Rebecca could make any move, two more prison guards appeared behind her and silently blocked the exit.

The silence put Rebecca on alert, her animal instincts constantly reminding her not to make any move.

[Will die]

"Oh—Miss Rebecca?" Li Yili smiled brightly, raised her finger, and poked Rebecca's nose, gently wiggling it from side to side.

Human reason forcefully suppressed Rebecca's urge to bite or dodge.

"Miss Rebecca, do you understand the current situation?" Seeing that Rebecca had held back, Li Yili's actions became even more outrageous. She no longer just poked Rebecca's nose, but instead used her right hand to gently tickle Rebecca's chin with her index and middle fingers bent.

"Ugh—you bastard! What are you doing! Are you trying to humiliate me! I'm telling you! I'd rather die than submit!"

Rebecca angrily raised her hand and shook off Li Yili's hand.

The two jailers standing behind Rebecca had somewhat subtle expressions. Logically, they should have been yelling and pinning Rebecca down at this moment, since this cell was designed to restrain her. But they noticed that Rebecca's tail had just swayed from side to side.

That doesn't seem to mean an attack.

“Rebecca, Miss? You’ve misunderstood something. I’m not here to humiliate you,” Li Yili waved her hand. “Actually—I’m in charge of Theresa Prison now.”

The two jailers standing behind Rebecca instinctively opened their mouths, exchanged a glance, but said nothing.

Rebecca was taken aback, recalling Mamaka's theory of relationships.

She recognized the two guards blocking the door; they held a high position in Teresa Prison. These two guards were assigned to block the door, and they didn't say a word from beginning to end, behaving as obediently as two powerful guards.

"Damn it—you who got in through connections! What are you trying to do!"

"Well... I'm also troubled by this."

Li Yili paced back and forth in front of Rebecca, pretending to be troubled, her chin resting on her hand.

"Simply put, I want reform."

"Huh?" Rebecca tilted her head.

The two guards standing behind Rebecca stared wide-eyed; the warden hadn't mentioned this to them.

"Hmm? Did I not explain myself clearly enough and cause you to have an unnecessary misunderstanding? I'm sorry, I'm not good at embellishment," Li Yili lowered her head apologetically and spread her arms. "Actually, I want to transform Teresa Prison into my personal property."

"Cough-cough-"

The two jailers standing behind Rebecca couldn't help but cough loudly.

“Turn it into your personal property…” Rebecca’s lips twitched. “Do you know what you’re saying? The warden here is… that guy. Even if you have connections, you can’t get Teresa Prison from him.”

The two jailers standing behind Rebecca nodded quickly.

“Ah~ I didn’t plan to be the warden. I just, well, to put it simply, I’m going to be a figurehead warden,” Li Yili smiled brightly and held up her finger. “These two will also help.”

As she spoke, Li Yili raised her hand towards the two prison guards behind Rebecca.

Rebecca glanced over instinctively.

The two jailers nodded subconsciously, but immediately realized what they were doing and shook their heads vigorously with stiff expressions.

"Pfft, hahaha—you're much more interesting than I thought," the jailer's embarrassed expression made Rebecca burst into laughter.

They've gone so far as to turn Teresa Prison into their personal property and sideline the warden. Even after all this, the two guards still haven't shown any intention of taking down Li Yili. Clearly, she's no ordinary person with connections.

"Okay, what do you want me to do?"

Li Yili pulled out a collar from behind her back.

Chapter Twenty-Two: Hold on! Not showing your belly is a victory!

"Could it be..."

"Isn't that Rebecca from the Yellowcoats?"

"An elusive nightmare..."

The prisoners at Theresa Prison stared in disbelief at what they were seeing.

"Don't look! Don't look this way! Guh-ah—"

The aggressive roar sent chills down the spines of the surrounding prisoners, but few were actually frightened away, because Teresa could do nothing but scare people now.

A muzzle that prevented the fangs from fully opening, and anklets thicker than an adult male's thigh connected to a sphere emitting a strange light. Each swing of the arm inevitably brought up countless fleshy limbs covered in black gel. Of course, the most eye-catching thing was the collar that gleamed with a cold light. The other side of the thin chain connected to the collar was firmly held in the hand of a prison guard he had never seen before.

"Ah...ah!" Mamaka, who had squeezed in, opened his mouth wide.

It's that person with connections!

Mamaka subconsciously winked at Rebecca, trying to communicate with her through eye contact, but unfortunately, Rebecca only had eyes for Li Yili.

The two prison guards following behind Li Yili had their hands behind their backs and coldly surveyed the strangely-looking prisoners who had not yet dispersed.

"Cough—cough cough cough—" Li Yili coughed heavily a few times, and deliberately raised her hand to wave the chain in her hand at the other prisoners. "Let me introduce myself. I am new here. I am your supervisor. From today onwards, I will be in charge of your daily life and everything else."

The two prison guards standing behind Li Yili felt a jolt of fear and tensed up.

Although the prison should decide the daily lives of prisoners, this is Teresa Prison, and the prisoners here are not ordinary prisoners, they can't even be called human beings, especially the low-level prisoners. Their inner thoughts, like their outward appearance, cannot be judged by common sense.

Therefore, it's not impossible that these prisoners might suddenly attack them in a moment of madness.

"Ugh, they look so unhappy," Li Yili pinched the bridge of her nose and turned to complain to the two prison guards behind her, "Your education is inadequate. How can these prisoners show such expressions to me, their administrator?"

Mamaka, who had already retreated back to the other lower-level staff, stared at Li Yili nervously.

He recognized the two prison guards behind Li Yili; they were veterans among the guards at Teresa Prison, known for their ruthlessness. So ruthless that some inmates joked that these guards were the ones actually imprisoned in Teresa Prison.

And now these two

The jailer didn't even glance at Li Yili's complaints, clearly indicating that Li Yili's connections were far more extensive than he had imagined.

From today onwards, I will take care of your daily life and everything else.

Even the warden never said this. Since Li Yili said it now, there must be something that made her say it. In order to intimidate the prisoners, she first took down a big shot among the prisoners. But why Rebecca?

Mamaka subconsciously glanced at Rebecca, the tattered yellow raincoat covering Rebecca's body being incredibly glaring.

The King in Yellow!

Mamaka looked up sharply. The traces left by the summoning of the King in Yellow last night were extremely conspicuous. Even now, Teresa Prison has not sent anyone to repair them. However, this is normal. The traces left by the King in Yellow are too extensive and too large. Repairing them is not a small project, especially since there are still many dangerous prisoners in the prison.

Now they've specifically targeted Rebecca from the Yellowcoats...

Demonstration!

To show these prisoners that Teresa Prison is not afraid of the King in Yellow.

But this demonstration was telling them that Teresa Prison did not want to bear the consequences of summoning the King in Yellow.

Mamaka's eyes flickered. If the King in Yellow were on their side, they would probably be outwardly compliant but inwardly defiant, or even directly mock him. But they couldn't grasp the King in Yellow's thoughts. This morning, they had coerced and bribed a prisoner on the top floor to confirm the King in Yellow's cell.

As expected, the cell was empty.

In other words, if they want to contact the King in Yellow now, they either have to wait for him to appear at their cell door during the restricted time, or...
