Chapter 620: Leaving This Place

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

There was only one prison in Sky Alpha City, and it was inside the Peace-keeping Bureau.

After w.a.n.g Furong was brought back by the people from the Peace-keeping Bureau, she was locked up in prison straightaway.

■■Big Brother, can I stay with my husband? Please let me be locked up with my husband.” w.a.n.g Furong knelt in front of the deputy manager of the Peace-keeping Bureau and begged piteously.

The deputy manager was emotionless as he got someone to lock her up directly in another cell.

Meng Jiang, who was sitting in a corner of another cell, sprang up from the floor when he heard w.a.n.g Furong’s voice.

“Furong? Furong, is that you? Furong?”

The prison cell was very quiet in the middle of the night. Meng Jiang’s shout quickly reached w.a.n.g Furong’s ears.

When w.a.n.g Furong heard him, she got up from the ground in delight.

“It’s me, Husband. I… I’m here to accompany you.” w.a.n.g Furong had just finished speaking when she was reprimanded by the prison guard.

“Shut up. What are you making so much noise for? Don’t talk.

w.a.n.g Furong was so scared that she kept quiet.

After the prison guard left, Meng Jiang spoke again. “Furong, what’s going on?

Why are you locked up here too?”

w.a.n.g Furong began weeping before she could say anything. “I don’t know why either. When the City Lord arrived at our home tonight, she suddenly tortured me and forced me to confess that I lied. After torturing me, she sent me here to be locked up.”

Meng Jiang was shocked. “What did you say? The City Lord sent you here to be locked up?”

‘■Yes Husband. I think the City Lord has always sided with those bad people.

Why do you think the City Lord would do this? Is… is it because you guys didn’t follow her to Sky Alpha City previously, and the City Lord was actually displeased?”

Meng Jiang was stunned. In his impression, Su Ying had always been a very powerful and domineering existence. If she was displeased because of this, why did she agree to let them stay behind in the Tiger Base?

As Meng Jiang was trying to figure this out, w.a.n.g Furong spoke again,

“Husband, are you alright? Did they make things difficult for you?”

Meng Jiang snapped out of his thoughts and shook his head. “I’m fine. I have implicated you. When Father comes, I’ll beg him to plead for mercy on your behalf in front of the City Lord. The City Lord won’t make things difficult for you.”

“Mm-hmm. Oh, yes, Husband. After you were locked up here, did you meet any strange people?”

“Strange people?” Meng Jiang was puzzled.

■•Mm-hmm. I heard that those people fought with us for the mine. Later on, many people were arrested. I don’t know if they were all locked up in this prison.”

Meng Jiang seemed to have thought of something. “Now that you mentioned it,

I think I’ve seen them before. But they’re not locked up in the same place as us.

They’re locked up in the front, behind that door. I think the security there is much stricter. Maybe those people are locked up in there.

Although w.a.n.g Furong could not see Meng Jiang, she could see the door he was talking about when she turned her head.

She stared at the door in a daze. No one knew what she was thinking. “Furong, don’t be afraid. Put your mind at ease and rest first. Father and Mother will come to save you soon.”

“Mm-hmm. Alright.”

As the night deepened, the prison was so quiet that one could hear a pm drop.

Only the sound of snoring could be heard.

w.a.n.g Furong, who was leaning against the wall of the cell, quietly opened her two eyes and took out a long hairpin from her hair. She quietly picked the lock of the cell door, opened it, and walked out of the cell.

There weren’t many prisoners in the prison. The cells were all empty in this zone. Even if there were people, they were all asleep and no one would notice her movements.

w.a.n.g Furong found the door that Meng Jiang mentioned. She used the hairpin in her hand to open the door and walked in.

Compared to the cells where she and Meng Jiang were locked up, the cells behind this door looked much more secure. Every cell was constructed from stone blocks, and there was only one opening on the iron door that could allow one bowl to pa.s.s through.

w.a.n.g Furong made her way carefully to the front of the cells and pushed open that opening on the door to check what was inside. When she looked through the opening of the last cell, she saw a figure sitting in the corner.

“Your Highness? Your Highness the First Prince?” w.a.n.g Furong called out softly.

The person inside was startled when he heard the noise. Then, he stood up and went to the door to look outside.

w.a.n.g Furong saw the appearance of the person clearly by the light of the torch, and a smile of delight appeared on her face. “It’s really you, Your Highness. Is Your Highness alright?”

A look of astonishment flashed across Xie Rui’s eyes as if he did not expect w.a.n.g Furong to appear here at this hour.

He replied after a moment of deliberation, “Your City Lord is about to execute me, so how can I be fine? Miss Furong, you should leave quickly lest I implicate you.”

When w.a.n.g Furong realized that Xie Rui was thinking of her, a blissful smile appeared on her face. “Your Highness, don’t worry. I will think of a way to save you.”

Xie Rui’s eyes flickered slightly. “It’s too risky. I don’t want you to take any risks.”

w.a.n.g Furong shook her head and said firmly, “Don’t worry, Your Highness. I will definitely find a way to save you. Wait for me, Your Highness.”

As soon as she finished speaking, w.a.n.g Furong heard footsteps coming from outside. She did not dare to stay any longer and quickly returned to her cell.

The instant she sat down in the corner of her cell, two patrolling guards walked past the cell door.

She let out a soft breath of relief. Fortunately, she had asked Meng Jiang about the schedule of the patrol. Otherwise, she would have been discovered.

w.a.n.g Furong clenched her hands. As long as she could save the First Prince of the Jin State, he could take her away from this d.a.m.n place. She had had enough of staying here long ago!

Over the next few days, Su Ying didn’t return to the Peace-keeping Bureau. Instead, she went to the mine to check on the mining progress.

In the prison of the Peace-keeping Bureau, two patrolmen were chatting idly. “How much ore do you think we can dig out from this mine?” -I don’t know, but I heard from the Deputy Manager that the ore vein over there is not small. These few days, the City Lord has gone there to monitor again. If we dig out a lot, our lives will improve.”

“That’s right. It was a pity the City Lord left previously. She chased away those who coveted the mine the moment she returned.”

w.a.n.g Furong immediately grasped the important information in those people’s words.

Su Ying wasn’t in the city right now, so this was a good opportunity!

As night fell, w.a.n.g Furong walked out of her cell just like she did before after the patrolling guards left.

She located Xie Rui’s cell and opened the cell door.

“Your Highness, based on my observations over the past few days, the security is the weakest at this hour. I’ll take Your Highness out of here now.”

However, Xie Rui did not follow her immediately. Instead, he frowned and said, “We can break out of the prison, but we might not be able to get out of the city gate. Have you prepared everything?”

w.a.n.g Furong nodded. “I know of a place to get out of the city.”

Xie Rui didn’t expect her to be so well-prepared. His expression became gentle. “Okay. As long as we can get out of here, I will never let you down.”

Xie Rui told w.a.n.g Furong to release his guards who were imprisoned in other cells. With such a big group of people, they could not avoid the guards at all and could only force their way out.

After getting out of the cell, Xie Rui picked up the torch on the wall and threw it on the straw in the cell. The fiery flames instantly engulfed the straw and the fire broke out at once..
