That day, early in the morning, the skylight of the Land of the Fallen opened. The prisoners could see the real sky through the skylight, which they had not seen for a long time; this was not the scenery simulated by the system.

The sunlight passed through the skylight and shone on the floor. The seven-colored halo spread out. Yue Xin reached out and the warmth of the sunlight stayed in her palm, but she felt inexplicably uneasy. She looked at No. 12 and asked, “No. 12, is there anyone stronger than Leng Chen in the prison?”

No. 12 had an imperfect smile on his face as he replied, “Yes, people like me and

Yue Xin understood. Only Yi Chengxuan was better than Leng Chen. In other words, no one could hurt Maya from Leng Chen’s hands unless Maya did it on purpose. She used logic to suppress the uneasiness in her heart, but she forgot that Maya had also told her that there were many things that could not be explained by logic. If she could not convince herself with logic no matter what, she had to believe in the guidance of her heart.

Yue Xin had never trusted her heart, so she let go of the sunlight in her hand and retreated to the dark. Now was not the time to look at the blue sky. After reading the cases in Building No. 6, she still had to bring lunch back for Maya.

But on the way back to Building No. 1, Yue Xin got colder and colder. She didn’t hear Maya boxing or anyone moving around. She went straight to Maya’s room. She had long since gotten used to living with Maya, sleeping in the same bed and eating at the same table.

“Maya, I’m back. I brought you the spicy rabbit meat you’ve always wanted to eat,” Yue Xin said as she placed the dishes on the dining table as usual.

However, after waiting for a long time, she didn’t hear that familiar voice.

“Maya?” Was she out the door?

Yue Xin turned into the bedroom and saw Maya sitting by the window with a smile on her face.

Yue Xin thought that Maya was playing a prank, so she walked over and shook Maya’s shoulder. She said softly, “Maya, I’m back.”

There was a moment of silence.

Yue Xin sensed something and reached out to hug Maya to stop her body from falling.

“Maya, I’m so cold. Can you hold me?”

This time, her reply was still silence.

Building No. 1, at 12:12 P.M., Maya Anastasia Kryuka was found dead in her bedroom on the thirty-fourth floor. There were no visible wounds on the physical appearance of the body, no signs of a struggle, and the preliminary assessment was that she had died of a drug overdose.

Yue Xin stared at Maya for a long time. She felt that this might be fate. If you were destined to be in pain, you shouldn’t have hoped for happiness that didn’t belong to you. Otherwise, when you thought that you had seen light, fate would mercilessly push you into the darkness without any warning. And you wouldn’t have any room to fight back.

Yue Xin sat quietly beside Maya and held Maya’s hand which had gradually lost its warmth. She suddenly felt pain. The suffocating feeling from the bottom of her heart was like a hammer that hit every inch of her body. But strangely, even so, she still didn’t feel like crying. The last time she cried, it was because she was afraid of losing her. But now that she had already lost her and wasn’t afraid, there was naturally no need to cry.

Yue Xin sat next to Maya for a full thirty minutes and did nothing until the thirty-first minute. She gently put Maya’s hand down, stood up, pressed her earpiece, and called No. 12 as usual.

At this moment, No. 12 was sitting on the sofa in the prison guard’s lounge, listening to the gossip people in Building 3 talk about the recent love triangle drama in the prison. A familiar notification suddenly sounded in his earpiece. At that time, it was Yue Xin’s notification music.

No. 12 sighed and ended the communication with Happy in Building No. 3. He picked up Yue Xin’s call. “What can I do for you?”

No. 12 said a formal reply, but he knew very well that Yue Xin should have just finished lunch with Maya at this time. She must have contacted him to ask him to clean up the dishes and wash their dirty clothes. If he was lucky, he could even see Maya changing Yue Xin’s clothes excitedly and asking him which one looked good.

His personal opinion was that Yue Xin looked fierce and valiant in her short black leather jacket and extremely short leather pants. At first glance, she looked like a character not to be trifled with in prison! However, Maya liked to make Yue Xin wear dresses, especially white dresses. Every time, she would praise Yue Xin for looking good in a dress and mock him for having such vulgar taste. Every time, he would silently roll his eyes in his heart, but there was an annotated smile on his face. He was a veteran prison guard in prison and had seen too many tricks. He naturally knew why Maya would do this. Maya was trying to rope him in.

He was the person closest to Yue Xin in the entire prison. Other than Maya, he was the other one who knew Yue Xin’s true personality. More importantly, he was smart and strong. As long as he wanted to, he could even hide it from outsiders. It was not a bad thing for Yue Xin to rope him in..
