Yue Xin didn’t rush. She just sat there and let Su Yu stare at her. She even had the time to try the light and shadow composition that Denise had taught her. The effect of the moonlight must be better than the sunlight. The moonlight was cold, and the sunlight was warm.
“Can the night yearn for moonlight?” Su Yu asked softly.
Yue Xin looked up at the fake moon in the sky and said calmly, “The moonlight that one yearns for will dissipate, but the moon itself won’t.”
After a short heart-to-heart talk, the two of them didn’t say anything else. They just quietly looked at the starry sky for the entire night. As the sky gradually brightened, Su Yu left an answer before he left, “You are my White
Moon.”
The ceremony of the branch building was held in the square where the assembly usually took place. All the people in power were sitting on the high platform. The prisoners of the Newbie Building stood in ten rows according to their lives. There were 30 people standing in one row.
At a glance, it felt like a school sports meet. This was the first time in many years that the survival rate of the branch battle was so high. The warden felt a headache when he saw so many people waiting to be distributed. The workload was too heavy. He was worried about handing it to his assistant. He wanted to switch to a reliable assistant, but unfortunately, he could not find anyone.
In the past, only those in power and those who passed the branch building battle participated in the ceremony. There were no more than 30 people in total. But this year, not only were there more prisoners who passed the branch building battle, but there was also another problem. As the only winner of the branch building battle, Yue Xin’s request was to go to Building No.7 to be the ruler.
Originally, the winner could only choose the building they wanted to go to. However, Yue Xin won too beautifully. Some rich people spent a lot of money to help Yue Xin become the person in charge. This made the prison have to consider if Yue Xin could bring more benefits to the prison after becoming the person in charge.
Due to various reasons, today, not only were there newcomers participating, but there were also those difficult geniuses in Building No.7.
One of the agendas of the ceremony was for all the prisoners in Building No.7 to vote for the person in charge. They could vote for themselves or the original person in charge. Of course, they could also vote for Yue Xin.
“Congratulations to everyone for defeating the pain and not going to see God. I believe everyone has seen the results of the branch battle. This is the only time in the history of the branch battle that there has been a single winner. Due to such a special situation, after careful consideration by the higher-ups, they finally decided to satisfy the conditions proposed by the winner. Therefore, today, the election of the person in charge of Building No.7 will be held.”
“Let’s not talk too much. Now, everyone in Building No.7, line up and give me your tickets.”
There were not many people in Building 7 to begin with, only about 50 in total, but these 50 people were harder to manage than 100 ordinary people. Among these 50 people, some of them had resistance to all medicine and often ate poisonous things as snacks. If one came into contact with them, they would be tricked into eating a large mouthful of poison.
Some people had excellent lock-picking and evasion skills. They could always easily find the blind spots of the surveillance cameras and run to other buildings to unlock other people’s rooms.
There were also people who had the ability to numericalize. All kinds of people were different data in her eyes. They could determine this person’s next move through the changes in the value. There were also people who were born strong and so on.
These people with extreme talent would never admit defeat, let alone obey others, but they were loyal to themselves.
When two people from Building No.7 passed by Yue Xin, they casually said, “Did you vote for Yue Xin?”
“I did. Building No. 4 said that as long as Yue Xin becomes the person in charge, they won’t bother me anymore. I think it’s not bad.”
“I think so too. It should be quite interesting for Yue Xin to be in charge.
Moreover, she can get rid of Building No.4.”
As their voices got further and further away, Yue Xin already knew what Su Yu meant. Su Yu was not the kind of person who would do good he without leaving his name. As long as he did good deeds, he would ask for compensation. Just now, he was asking for compensation.
Yue Xin looked at the votes on the stage and suddenly felt that everything was meaningless because she had already found the answer. Even if she became the person in charge, she was just testing the validity of her answer.
Soon, the warden finished counting the results. He looked at the votes in his hand and was slightly stunned. Although he had long guessed that many people would vote for Yue Xin, this number still frightened him. What was this? The attraction between lunatics?
The warden picked up the microphone and announced the results. “Yue Xin, 43 votes. From today onwards, Yue Xin will be the person in charge of Building No.7. Come, the newbies, step forward one by one. You can go to the building assigned to you.”
“Yue Xin, come and sit in Building No. 7. Hayne, go down.”
Hayne was the unlucky person who had just been displaced by Yue Xin. A second ago, he was the person in charge of Building No.7.
However, even if he was replaced in public, Hayne did not seem to have any resentment. He generously left the stage and stood with the other prisoners of Building No.7. He seemed to have accepted this outcome long ago..
