Si Chengyou originally only wanted the things Shen Hui had left for Shen Yue.
But now he had changed his mind.
He wanted to save Shen Yue first.
His sixth sense told him that if he wanted to achieve the outcome he had been pursuing all this time, he could not ignore Shen Yue.
"Shen Yue, you must now feel that all people's hearts can be controlled through benefits and calculations, but I want you to see another possibility."
Hearing these words, Shen Yue lowered her eyes slightly, not revealing the look in them.
She weighed and analyzed Si Chengyou's motives in her mind, but in the end found that no matter how she analyzed it, Si Chengyou seemed to have only one purpose.
That was she herself.
After a very, very long time, Shen Yue finally said softly, "Okay."
Even Si Chengyou himself did not realize that after Shen Yue gave her answer, he heaved a sigh of relief in his heart.
"Rest well today. Can you come to Building 5 tomorrow? I have something I want to show you."
Shen Yue nodded.
After a while longer, the prison cleaning team finally arrived, handled Tang Yi's corpse, and wiped and sprayed perfume at the entrance of Building 7 again, erasing all traces of Tang Yi's presence.
Whether it was the corpse or the smell, there was nothing left.
After parting from Si Chengyou, Shen Yue first called Haisi to her.
On the day Shen Yue took power, she had spoken to all the people in Building 7 once. Through that probe, she not only determined that Haisi and Ma Sha's deaths were unrelated and eliminated the last irrelevant option, but also learned that Haisi knew about Si Chengyou's past.
At that time, Shen Yue was not concerned with Si Chengyou's matters, so she did not ask further.
But what Si Chengyou had simply said just now made Shen Yue a little curious, so she decided to get some information about Si Chengyou from Haisi in order to better analyze him.
Shen Yue lived on the 35th floor, while Haisi still lived on the 36th floor. Haisi was Ma Sha's man. Shen Yue had also probed that Haisi could be trusted, so she used Haisi as her shield.
In Shen Yue's words, she was afraid that she would die before completing what she had to do, so she had to buy extra insurance.
Unlike other rulers, she would certainly die if someone got close to her, so she had to block danger from afar.
The other rooms on the 35th floor were occupied by No. 14, Mo Aman, and the werewolf brother with extremely strong physical control whom Shen Yue had saved.
When Haisi took the elevator down from the 36th floor to answer Shen Yue’s summons, he suffered the death gaze attack from these three people.
Especially Mo Aman. This woman had a pathological adoration for Shen Yue. Every time Haisi reported to Shen Yue, he would be stared at fiercely.
No. 14 always pretended not to care as he stood to the side, but Haisi knew this man was the most dangerous. He always stood in the best place to take action. If Haisi made any abnormal moves, he would be restrained immediately.
Not to mention the werewolf cub Shen Yue had picked up. A physical ability monster who could be knitting a sweater one second and punch you in the face after rushing up to you the next second.
Haisi was willing to call these three people Shen Yue's bronze and iron walls.
It was no wonder the other prisoners in Building 7 didn't want to come to the 35th floor. Even he, the former royal knight, felt stressed under the gaze of these three people.
Shen Yue was now sitting in front of her cell in a daze. It wasn't until Haisi stood in front of her that she seemed to notice Haisi had arrived and softly said, "Haisi, you're here."
"Boss, what do you want to ask me?" After performing a knight's salute to Shen Yue, Haisi asked.
"About Si Chengyou. I can't buy information about him from Building 3. Tell me everything you know."
So Haisi recounted what had happened when Si Chengyou first arrived at Flightless Bird.
At that time, Si Chengyou was not yet the ruler of Building 5, and Building 5 was not defined as it is now.
At that time, Building 5 was where an extremely intelligent group of people lived. It was called the Flightless Bird Think Tank. Many outsiders would even pay a high price to specifically ask the Flightless Bird Think Tank to help them solve problems.
But later, the think tank made a wrong decision. At that time, the Building 5 ruler pushed Aipeikeli Aonier out to take the fall.
When Aipeikeli returned to Building 5 on his last legs, his only wish was to see the Bordeaux dog he and his sister had raised when they were young again.
And in order to fulfill this wish, Si Chengyou completed the replacement of the Building 5 ruler in half a day. He used his privilege to bring back a Bordeaux dog for Aipeikeli Aonier.
After fulfilling his last wish, Aipeikeli Aonier died.
Aipuli'er O'Neil, the current Building 3 ruler and most powerful information merchant, is Aipeikeli Aonier's younger sister.
She was grateful to Si Chengyou for what he finally did for her elder brother, so she never sells Si Chengyou's information to others.
"In addition to this incident, when I was following the princess, I also heard the princess say that Si Chengyou shared the same misfortune as her and was a trustworthy person."
Haisi did not know much more. These two things were all he knew.
After getting the answers she wanted, Shen Yue let Haisi leave without saying anything else.
The next day, Shen Yue went to Building 5 early.
Si Chengyou was not there yet, so Shen Yue stood and waited at the door.
While waiting, some Building 5 prisoners who Shen Yue had imprinted during the werewolf games even respectfully greeted her when they saw Shen Yue.
"Greetings, Boss!"
Shen Yue noticed that the mental state of these people was obviously much better than when the building battle had just ended. If she had to put it, there was even a kind of idyllic feeling about these people.
Filled with an indescribable strange feeling, Shen Yue asked the prisoners who had greeted her, "You call me boss. Doesn't Si mind?"
Those people did not expect Shen Yue to actually respond to them. After all, the current Shen Yue was not to be trifled with. She had made the killer god in Building 4 commit suicide single-handedly, and even these prisoners who bore Shen Yue's imprint had unknowingly risen in status.
After being stunned for a while, they said, "Si does not mind these things."
Shen Yue noticed that these people only called Si Chengyou by his last name, without any prefix or suffix.
However, Shen Yue did not ask any more questions. Those prisoners soon left as well.
After a while, Si Chengyou walked out from Building 5, as if he had rushed out after hearing the news. Compared to usual, Si Chengyou's hair was a little messy, though this did not rule out that it was deliberate.
"Why did you come so early?"
The agreed upon time between Si Chengyou and Shen Yue was 10 a.m., but it was only 8 a.m. now.
Shen Yue said matter-of-factly, "I could only see your true appearance by coming early."
Hearing this answer, Si Chengyou was stunned for a moment before laughing. "I forgot, you're much more formidable now."
Shen Yue did not respond. She only asked, "Why did you ask me to come?"
"I bought some clothes from outside. I felt they would suit you very well, so I wanted you to come try them on."
