The entire prison fell An Jing upon hearing this.

Dude, wait a minute, what did I just hear?

Your boss's older sister works in a shack service in someone else's business, and you go to experience the service but don't even pay?

What kind of business ecosystem is this?

Is this the Abyssal Volcano?

Cheng Shi blinked in bewilderment, then suddenly turned to look at the Blind Man and asked in a strange tone, "Does the History School know about this?"

The Blind Man's eye twitched, and he was speechless.

"I'm sorry, but History School don't record every trivial anecdote."

What's wrong with unofficial history? Unofficial history is the real fun!

If there were no unofficial histories in this world, then at least 90% of the humor in history would be cut off, and seriousness would truly become the main theme of history.

Cheng Shi pursed his lips, then suddenly became interested. Intelligence was nothing compared to amusement. With a bright smile, he suddenly pointed to another burly man lying on the ground and asked expectantly:

"And what about him? Why was he locked up?"

"He's a prison guard..."

"?" Cheng Shi couldn't hold back and burst out laughing. "Interesting, very interesting."

"And what about this person?"

"Also a guard..."

"..." Even the Blind Man couldn't hold back anymore.

Okay, okay!

Cheng Shi laughed heartily and began pointing to the other people on the ground one by one.

"And him?"

"Those who went to the shack with me didn't have any money to give either."

"And him?"

"He stole some money from the shack, got beaten up, and can't go down into the mine now."

"... And what about him?"

"That's Arad," the burly man said sheepishly.

"???" Cheng Shi's smile froze on his face, and he didn't react for a moment. "Wait, who is he? Is this your captain?"

"Yes..."

"You slept with his sister, and he locked you in here. Now the two of you are drinking together?"

"Yes..."

6.

It's too relaxed. The atmosphere within this organization called the Proxy Hand is far too relaxed.

Cheng Shi was speechless, and for the first time felt a sense of admiration for the ecology of a place. He and the Blind Man looked at each other and laughed for a while before pointing to the last person and asking, "And the last one?"

"He... his name is Yadelik, and he came to the shack with us too..."

"..." Goodness, I've stumbled into a ladybug's nest.

Cheng Shi sighed, thinking to himself that he had heard enough amusement, but not a single useful piece of information. It seemed that the Blind Man was right; the guidance of Destiny was indeed not here.

Just as Cheng Shi was losing interest and preparing to leave to explore other places, the burly man in front of him thought he had angered the adults. He trembled and, in order to survive, blurted out a whole bunch of stories.

"My lord, if we're talking about interesting things, Yadelik's situation is certainly more interesting than ours."

His situation was a bit complicated. He came to the shack with us, but didn't stay overnight. Instead, while drunk, he dragged a woman to the edge of the lava pool for a walk, spouting all sorts of nonsense.

Cheng Shi stopped in his tracks and raised an eyebrow. "What nonsense are you talking about?"

"He said he found love in that woman, which is ridiculous. He never said that when he tried to renege on his debts before."

"...?"

The burly man was oblivious to Cheng Shi's strange expression. He kept his head down, only wanting to please the man in front of him who could take his life at any moment.

"Yadelik was clearly drunk. I don't know what that woman in the shack was thinking. She actually believed his nonsense and said she wanted to leave the shack and quit, and that she wanted to build a warm little home with Yadelik."

Unexpectedly, Yadelik went berserk upon hearing this, severely beating the woman and spouting absurd nonsense such as she had desecrated love...

No, don't do it! Sir, this isn't my story, it's just what's being said outside, and many people have seen it.

This angered the women in the shack, so Arad had no choice but to lock him up, as a way of giving the shack an explanation.

But even after he sobered up, he kept complaining about the woman in the shack, saying he would never get married again in his next life. But the problem is, he had never been married before, and the beautiful love he imagined was probably just in his drunken mind.

This is the most interesting thing we've heard recently, sir. That's all...

"Of course, if you still want to hear more, I have another way. We think the reason Yadelik made such a big fool of himself is because he drank fake alcohol that day. I can find the exact same fake alcohol, drink it, and then make up a story for you on the spot. How about that?"

"..."

Cheng Shi's expression was quite interesting for a moment.

Although the other person's begging appearance was comical, he didn't tell a single lie.

Dude, do you guys really think your friend drank fake alcohol?

Have you ever considered that the problem might not be with the alcohol itself, but with your brains?

Looking at the burly man with the unusual expression, Cheng Shi had a strange look on his face, but soon a glint of light flashed in his eyes, because he found that the story here had suddenly become interesting.

This miner named Yadelik did some strange things to a shack worker. Although he was drunk, who can guarantee that there wasn't something fishy going on?

Most importantly, even after sobering up, his perception still differed somewhat from that of those around him. Isn't this behavior somewhat similar to the question of this Trials?

What a coincidence, there are actually clues in the prison?

Cheng Shi and the Blind Man were clearly thinking the same thing. They exchanged a glance and then looked at the protagonist of the story, each feeling a sense of reflection.

Ah, Destiny! It's truly wondrous! (Indeed, the guidance of Destiny has begun to take effect, seemingly out of nowhere.)

Now that we've found a clue, the first thing we need to do is verify the accuracy of our guess.

The Blind Man had initially intended to use some methods of divination related to "Destiny" to predict this person's past, but after thinking about it, he decided against it and said to Cheng Shi:

"Although I have some [Memory] items, they are not very useful for tracing back Memory."

"Why don't we take him back to the inn and hand him over to Qin Xin? He has enough means to ensure the accuracy of the miner's Memory. What do you think?"

"Not good, the efficiency is too low." Cheng Shi smiled and took out a Scalpel again and held it in his hand. "We agreed to split up. It would be too embarrassing to ask others for help at this time. I can't do this. I might as well do it myself."

"..." The Blind Man hadn't expected where this sudden competitive spirit came from, but after sensing Cheng Shi's "killing intent," she sighed and took out another bottle of medicine.

She thought that what would happen next would be a repeat of what had just happened, but who knew that this Cheng Shi did not throw the Scalpel into the other person's limbs at all. Instead, she squatted down and decisively and quickly wiped off Yadelik's neck.

The miner died, falling asleep in his sleep at Cheng Shi's hands.
