Chapter 196 Borrowing Your "Sixth Sense"
Deputy Warden Leng Meng?
Wasim looked at Lin Feng with suspicion and uncertainty, silently mouthing, "What do we do?"
It was highly unusual for the deputy warden to visit alone in the dead of night.
Lin Feng did not answer immediately.
He immediately closed his eyes and silently chanted in his mind: 【Infinite Deduction, Activate!】
The simulation unfolds:
He got up, walked to the door, and cautiously peered through the peephole.
Under the dim corridor lights, it was indeed Leng Meng's aloof face, only it looked even more chilling than during the day.
Lin Feng opened the door.
Leng Meng's sharp gaze swept over Lin Feng and Wasim, then landed on Lin Feng's face. There was no hint of apology for disturbing him in her eyes, only urgency and determination.
"Lin Feng, come with me. I need your help with something." Her words were concise and left no room for argument.
Wasim tried to speak: "Deputy Warden, it's so late..."
With a single glance from Leng Meng, Vassim swallowed back the words he was about to say.
Lin Feng stopped his deduction, opened his eyes, and a look of understanding flashed in them.
He sat up in bed, threw off the thin blanket, and went straight to the door.
"Brother Lin Feng!" Wasim couldn't help but warn, "There's a risk! What if he's an imitator or..."
Lin Feng shook his head, his voice calm yet resolute: "The deputy warden is just outside the door. Don't worry, everything will be fine."
He walked to the door, turned the lock without hesitation, and opened the door.
The dim light from the corridor outside the door streamed in, illuminating Leng Meng's tall and slender figure.
Her face was expressionless, except when she saw Lin Feng open the door so quickly and without any surprise on his face, a knowing look of "I knew it" flashed across her eyes.
He seemed to have somehow confirmed that the person outside the door was indeed himself.
Leng Meng glanced at Wasim, then her gaze fell on Lin Feng's face, and she said succinctly, "Let's talk in my office."
At 10 p.m., the deputy warden came to summon him personally—this was no small matter.
Recalling the accusations of "Blank" during the day and the thrilling sealing process, Lin Feng had a rough idea of Leng Meng's intentions.
Lin Feng nodded, didn't ask any more questions, and only made a "don't worry" gesture to Vassim, who looked worried behind him, before turning to leave and gently closing the dormitory door behind him.
The corridor was deserted.
Leng Meng turned and left without saying a word, with Lin Feng following closely behind.
The two moved nimbly and quickly through the quiet corridors of Ward D, arriving at the open courtyard in the center of the prison.
The prison courtyard was even more eerie at night, with searchlights on the high walls sweeping across the walls in a regular pattern.
Leng Meng seemed to know the patrol routes and blind spots of the surveillance like the back of her hand. She led Lin Feng skillfully around the main paths and lights, and like two shadows, they quickly crossed the courtyard and arrived at a small door on the side of the administration building.
She swiped her access card to open the small door, and the two slipped inside.
The interior of the administration building was equally quiet, with only the emergency lights emitting a faint green glow.
Upon entering Leng Meng's office, Leng Meng locked the door behind her and turned on the desk lamp.
She didn't sit down, but turned around, her gaze sharp as she looked at Lin Feng, getting straight to the point:
"This afternoon in Zone Δ, you had clearly evacuated, but then suddenly returned. Did you foresee that the prison guard's mind would be controlled, thus launching an attack on me?"
Lin Feng met her gaze and remained silent for a moment.
He knew there was no need to hide it anymore, since he would have to tell Leng Meng the details once his abilities were activated.
Moreover, the system notification clearly stated that Leng Meng's favorability towards him had reached 100 points, and it was only a matter of time before she became his wife.
It's only right to inform your wife of the necessary skills.
Thinking of this, Lin Feng let out a soft breath:
"I do have a kind of 'sixth sense' ability. If I concentrate, I can briefly see some... scenes that are about to happen."
A hint of understanding flashed in Leng Meng's eyes, and at the same time, a feeling of being completely trusted resonated gently in her heart.
She didn't let any emotion show; she simply took a step forward, her voice remaining calm:
"Now I need you to use that 'sixth sense' again."
Lin Feng immediately asked, "Are you planning to go to the warden's office?"
A hint of appreciation flashed in Leng Meng's eyes: "Talking to smart people is so effortless!"
"That's right, the accusation of 'blankness,' whether true or false, is like a thorn in our side."
"I need to open the safe in the warden's office and verify it myself."
Lin Feng pondered for a moment, then nodded: "I understand, I'll give it a try."
Without wasting words, he immediately closed his eyes, concentrated his mind, and activated [Infinite Deduction] again.
Consciousness sinks into the flowing illusion—
In the scene, Lin Feng and Leng Meng, like two shadows, quietly approach the heavy double wooden door of the warden's office.
The corridor was deserted.
Leng Meng's fingertips were now holding a thin, long tool, as thin as a cicada's wing, that gleamed with a dark blue light.
With a steady flick of her wrist, she made a soft click from inside the lock, and the physical lock disengaged.
She then gently pushed open the wooden door.
The two slipped inside.
The office was dark, with only the faint light from the streetlights outside the window barely outlining the furniture.
However, the moment their feet stepped onto the indoor carpet—
The alarm has been triggered.
Almost at the same second, the simulation screen began to shake violently.
Just a few breaths later, Cyrus Mohn's figure seemed to solidify from the shadows themselves, standing silently in the doorway they had just entered through.
A sinister smile played on his lips, and between his pale fingers, the dark red gemstone seal slowly rotated, reflecting a dark, blood-red glow.
Those azure eyes shone brightly in the darkness, staring directly at the two figures in the simulation.
"Good evening, Deputy Warden Leng, and... trainee prison guard Lin Feng."
His voice was still hoarse, with a metallic, abrasive quality, slowly seeping into the deathly still air.
"Coming to my office so late, are you here to enjoy the night view, or... are you looking for something?"
The moment he finished speaking, Lin Feng forcibly severed the simulation connection.
He suddenly opened his eyes, a cold sweat breaking out on his back.
He whispered urgently, "No... going in through the front door will immediately trigger the alarm. The warden... he appeared almost instantly, as fast as... as if he could teleport!"
Leng Meng frowned, not surprised by the result.
Cyrus Mohn was far more cautious than the average person.
"If the front door doesn't work... then try going in through the window. Try activating your 'Sixth Sense' again?"
Lin Feng shook his head, his face pale, revealing obvious fatigue:
"I can only go all out one more time; my stamina is almost at its limit."
Leng Meng nodded, noticing Lin Feng's unpleasant expression.
"Okay, just once. This time we'll go through the window; I need to know if it's feasible."
Lin Feng took a deep breath, forcing himself to concentrate his somewhat scattered mind, closed his eyes again, and activated [Infinite Deduction]—
In the darkness, Leng Meng led Lin Feng to a shady spot behind the administration building.
There are no patrol lights shining directly on this place, making it relatively concealed.
Leng Meng gestured for Lin Feng to come closer.
"Hold on tight." She whispered, and before Lin Feng could react, she reached out and wrapped her arms around his waist.
