Chapter 276 Investigation Files Peeping in the Dark
“Are you afraid of alerting the enemy?”
Huo Jixing stood quietly on the stone by the river, looking deeply into the Piart River.
The broad river in front of you is formed by the cold water of the Sea of Watchers, surrounding the island where the Stillwater Prison is located.
As the night gets darker, the fog gets thicker.
The dark Jingshui Prison became increasingly hazy under the moonlight.
In such an environment, prisoners in the prison basically have no chance of escape.
I fell deeply into the endless darkness and coldness, unable to extricate myself.
"The information we have now is just speculation." Huo Jixing whispered softly.
"But do you think they won't be aware of our actions? Or the actions of the Piltover Council?"
Upon hearing this, Camille's expression became solemn, and a fierce aura appeared in her gem-like eyes.
As the chief spy of the Feros family, she knows very well how many unknown secrets and powers are hidden between Piltover and Zaun.
She couldn't help but think of Professor Heimerdinger.
The forces behind the Eye of Zaun are lurking secretly and have already silently infiltrated into the Yodel Academy of Science and Progress.
The parliament ended not long ago, and the forces behind it should not have received the news so quickly.
But Camille also knew in her heart that this did not mean that they could take it lightly.
After all, the methods and technology of the forces behind the Eye of Zaun are somewhat difficult to estimate.
"Is Caitlin here?"
Huo Jixing looked back at the brightly lit Piltover and asked.
He originally wanted to sneak into Daojingshui Prison alone.
But someone in the council suggested that he and Caitlin act together.
Huo Jixing understood who was proposing this, but he didn't care in his heart.
Considering that Caitlin had entered Stillwater Prison and had a certain understanding of the internal situation, he finally agreed to the proposal.
"On the way, come right away." Camille replied.
Huo Jixing nodded.
Looking at the Jingshui Prison in the darkness, his eyes glowed with red-gold light.
[Suzaku·Red Eyes and Fire Eyes]!
The next moment.
Under the dim sky, many evil auras rise into the sky like red flames, filling the field of vision.
This is the innate ability given by the Suzaku Star, the Star of Zhen.
The sky and the earth are clear, and the evil and dangerous place is here!
"It really is a place where criminals gather." Huo Jixing was thoughtful.
After a while.
There were soft footsteps coming from behind.
Caitlin walked over in a heroic manner wearing the Sheriff's uniform during the day, carrying a Hextech precision rifle on her back, adding a bit of chill to the night.
The two nodded to each other, said a simple hello, and walked to the wooden boat parked by the river together.
The wooden boat is not big, but the interior is simply decorated and clean.
Soft lights lit up in the cabin, bringing a touch of warmth to the dim night.
The two boarded the wooden boat and stood at the bow, ready to start their action.
The night was dark, and the wooden boat slowly sailed away from the shore, heading towards the Jingshui Prison.
On the quiet lake, cold water vapor blows towards your face, bringing the chill of the lake.
The river water gently laps the hull of the boat, making a slight sound, like a whispering melody, which is extremely clear in the silent night.
"Vi is innocent."
Caitlin suddenly spoke up, breaking the silence on the lake.
She turned sideways, looked at the handsome man in front of her, and expressed her inner thoughts.
In the parliament during the day, as an observer of the meeting, she saw Huo Jixing's unfazed manner and was well aware of the power that the other party had.
"Whether he is innocent or not requires parliamentary investigation, doesn't it?" Huo Jixing answered with a chuckle.
The emergence of Source Plan·Judgment.
It really put Wei into the center of the storm and became the focus of everyone's attention, coupled with her identity as a former Dicheng person.
No matter whether there is a problem or not, we still need to wait until the end of this incident.
When Caitlin heard the answer, her expression paused, and her clenched fists slowly unclenched.
Of course she believes that the parliament can investigate fairly, and she also believes in Wei that everything will come to light.
The surrounding environment fell into silence again.
There is only the sound of the wooden boat moving forward and the whirring sound of the white sail.
Until a light comes on in the distance.
Then, a dark gray building complex appeared in the field of vision, unusually large and heavy.
Looking from a distance, they look like ferocious beasts crawling on the island, bringing invisible and terrifying pressure.
On the top of the dark gray building, there is a white light like a full moon, shining alone.
It is its existence that pulls the wooden boat closer and closer.
When the wooden boat arrived at the shore.
Huo Jixing and Caitlin stepped off the boat at once, keeping their feet on the ground.
Huo Jixing looked up and saw smooth dark gray walls in front of him, which was a bit daunting.
He looked carefully and found that the style of Stillwater Prison was somewhat similar to the architecture of the Noxus Empire, solemn and solemn.
Has a very strong sense of oppression and defensive properties.
Huo Jixing and Caitlin walked side by side and climbed up the stone steps.
In the process of climbing.
Huo Jixing noticed that the stones used to build the Still Water Prison seemed to have been specially treated to make them smoother and harder, able to withstand strong impacts.
At the end, they saw a tall and heavy iron gate, like a mountain, standing in front of them to protect Jingshui Prison.
The tall iron gate is made entirely of steel, cold and cruel.
Caitlin skillfully pushed open the giant steel door.
What comes into view is a flat road extending in all directions.
The road is wide and straight, leading to the depths of the prison. The sky above is filled with a blood-red light, infecting the vision.
It flows slowly, as if it has life, bringing an inexplicable sense of depression.
In addition, in the center of the road, there is a stone platform that looks like a service desk.
Behind the stage, stood a sturdy prison guard with some items placed in front of him. "Miss Gila Mann, it's nice to see you again." The prison guard saw Caitlin and said with a smile.
"What are you here for?"
The prison guard looked past Caitlin and landed on Huo Jixing, his metal prosthetic eyes glowing with a cold sheen.
"This is an order signed by Councilor Talis. We need to check the prison files."
Caitlin took out the letter signed by Jace and placed it on the table.
The prison guard picked it up and examined it carefully.
After a while.
"No problem, Miss Gila Mann, you and your companions can go in."
The prison guard leaned forward and said slightly curiously.
"Did something big happen? Why did Senator Tallis suddenly want to check the files of Stillwater Prison."
"It's just a routine inspection." Caitlin looked at the prison guard and replied.
"Really? I hope nothing happens." The prison guard shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile.
"Then I won't delay you, this is the key to the archives."
He opened the drawer, took out a metal key, heavy and covered with rust, and handed it to Kate Lin.
Caitlin took the key, nodded to Huo Jixing, and walked towards a metal door that flashed with rainbow light.
Looking at the two people leaving, the prison guard's metal prosthetic eyes moved slightly, wondering what he was thinking.
Suddenly, the handsome man beside Caitlin turned his head, pointed at the top of his head, and reminded him kindly.
“You’re wearing your hat backwards.”
The prison guard couldn’t help but look stunned when he heard the reminder. Then he quickly adjusted his hat and looked at the man who entered the metal door again.
The two people's eyes met in the air, and the atmosphere became a little subtle for a while.
The prison guard seemed to read something from Huo Jixing's calm eyes, but he was not sure.
Wow! Wow!
A bright red light filled the elevator, and the sound of broken chains could be heard.
Huo Jixing and Caitlin took the metal elevator and slowly sank.
Caitlin noticed Huo Jixing's reminder and wanted to ask something.
But I heard a voice ringing in my ears.
"Don't talk, keep quiet."
Caitlin raised her eyebrows slightly and subconsciously turned her head to look at Huo Jixing.
This is his voice!
To her surprise, Huo Jixing's face was calm and his lips were motionless, as if he didn't make any sound.
But the sound rang clearly in Caitlin's ears, ignoring the noise of the metal chain, and passed directly into her mind.
Caitlin's heart moved, thinking of Huo Jixing's status as a transcendent.
Perhaps this is one of his extraordinary abilities.
Huo Jixing did not pay attention to Caitlin's reaction, but concentrated on extending his perception to the surroundings.
From the moment he stepped into Stillwater Prison, he sensed that someone was watching in secret.
Not extraordinary means.
Then, only Hex Technology is left.
Huo Jixing let out a sigh of relief. After fighting against the Yuan Project warriors, he was well aware of the power of Hex Technology.
He secretly guessed that some beings in Stillwater Prison may have used Hex technology equipment to monitor every move in the prison.
Cang!
The elevator stopped slowly and made a dull sound.
Huo Jixing followed Caitlin, and the two of them walked out of the elevator one after another and headed towards the archives room.
What you see along the way is a gloomy and dark prison scene.
Under the dim light, rows of numbered cells came into view.
The huge stone doors of these cells were tightly closed, blocking most of the light and making the space appear more depressing and dull.
Huo Jixing noticed that although there seemed to be many prisons, there should be many prisoners inside.
But in fact, most of the cells were empty.
On the way to the archives room, they also met several patrolling prison guards.
The prison guards wore uniform blue uniforms with indifferent expressions on their faces, as if they were accustomed to everything here.
Huo Jixing and Caitlin did not talk to them, they just walked by silently and continued to move towards their destination.
In front of the old archives room.
Huo Jixing and Caitlin stopped and stood.
In front of them was a heavy and solid iron door, stained with some dust.
Caitlin took out the metal key from her pocket and gently inserted it into the keyhole.
With a slight sound of mechanical rotation, the iron door slowly opened, revealing the dark and quiet space inside the archives room.
The two entered the archives room and found that it was unattended and silent.
The surroundings are filled with tall bookshelves, with various files and documents neatly arranged on them.
The air is filled with the smell of paper and dust.
Caitlin and Huo Jixing looked at each other and started doing their own things.
Huo Jixing walked around, his eyes quickly scanning the file.
Caitlin searched for the files about Wei, and at the same time took out her camera to take photos of the files to collect evidence.
Her movements were quick and precise, and she obviously had a lot of experience in this area.
Still Water Prison, a dark room somewhere.
There are lights shining on the dome, bringing a faint light to this dark space.
Two figures were observing the situation in the archive room through the metal instruments in front of them.
They recorded the movements of Caitlin and Huo Jixing respectively.
[Caitlin is looking for files related to Wei and taking photos to record them. ]
[The other person seems to be wandering around, and his specific purpose cannot be determined. ]
[Half an hour later, the evidence collection was completed and they left the archives room. ]
“Report the information.”
Cold words sounded in the dark room.
Rhythmic footsteps followed, and then everything returned to silence.
