Arknights is too real, right?

Xia Feng had a dream.

He dreamed that he was standing on a vast expanse of white glacier, and what he could see was like an Ice Age.

At this moment, a mini version of the Great Emperor jumped up to him.

You charge.

No charge.

My heart is happy.

Go away, don't charge!

The penguin took out a Qinglong Yanyue knife from under the white snow, and his attitude changed from customer service to landlord.

If you don't top up your money to play nice, brothers, block his account!

With a greeting, thousands of penguins burst out of the snow and rushed towards Xia Feng with howls, as if Xia Feng owed them tens of millions of Q coins.

A good man doesn't want to suffer any loss. Just as Xia Feng turned around and was about to run away, his foot slipped and he landed on his face.

Crack!

The ice cracked and he fell directly into the ice hole.

The next morning.

Xia Feng woke up from his sleep.

As the sun rose, the temperature in the prison gradually returned to normal.

After poking his head out of the quilt, Xia Feng touched his forehead and carefully determined whether he had a fever yesterday. However, there seemed to be nothing abnormal about his body. Well, could it be an illusion?

When the meal was delivered at noon, a strange prison guard came. Xia Feng took the lunch from the gap below and then chatted with him.

Brother, let me ask, what is the temperature in Longmen today?

The man glanced at him and replied coldly.

12 degrees.

Twelve degrees above zero?

Nonsense, when did the temperature in Longmen go below zero?

This prison guard is obviously not very talkative, or he doesn't like chatting with the prisoners.

In the afternoon, the sky outside became cloudy again.

Xia Feng took a basin full of water and placed it in the center of the room. He squatted at the door and stared at the basin of water in a daze.

Time passed by minute by minute.

I don't know how long it took, but suddenly, a biting chill penetrated my heart, making Xia Feng shiver subconsciously.

Xia Feng stood up quickly. Just as he was carefully trying to discern whether this was a sign of danger or something else, he suddenly caught sight of the basin of water in front of him.

The water surface quickly turned white, and the entire basin of water solidified into solid ice at a speed visible to the naked eye. At the same time, the temperature in the air seemed to have reached the north of Sami. The temperature difference alternated, causing goose bumps in the summer wind.

I, I, holy shit!

The coldness made his tongue knotted. He raised his hand and punched the basin. The ice inside cracked, and it was obvious that it was frozen through.

After exhaling a deep breath, Xia Feng shouted loudly with a trembling voice.

Come on! I'm going to die!

A moment later, a prison guard rushed over from the other end of the corridor with a baton.

what happened!

After the prison guards arrived, the chill disappeared inexplicably, and the temperature gradually rose. However, the basin of water that was frozen into solid ice did not thaw so quickly.

Xia Feng's eyebrows were covered with frost, and his teeth chattered as he spoke.

It's cold, it's so cold. What's going on with your broken prison? Are there consecutive cold storages?

After saying that, Xia Feng pointed to the basin of ice on the ground.

Seeing this scene, the prison guard was not too panicked. Instead, he looked relieved and comforted Xia Feng.

It's okay, don't be nervous.

Nervous? Is this a question of whether I'm nervous or not? Are you treating me like refrigerated pork? Are you using air conditioning? Is this torture?

For some reason, the prison guard looked half-smiling.

Xia Feng frowned.

why are you laughing?

Ahem, I didn't laugh.

The prison guard coughed and explained.

You misunderstood. Our prison building is not air-conditioned. There is no air-conditioning in this winter.

What's going on? Why did the temperature drop suddenly? Is it a natural disaster?

It's not a natural disaster, it's actually like this.

The prison guard leaned his face forward and whispered through the iron bars.

Just last month, we received a special prisoner here. We didn't feel anything special at first, but since she arrived, the temperature of the entire prison has become extremely unstable, and sometimes it suddenly drops.

Xia Feng seemed to understand.

Is this the reason why the original prisoners here were transferred?

That's right, we didn't pay attention at first, but one day, four prisoners who were locked up next to that person froze to death. When we saw it in the morning, the bodies were like ice cubes. There was no other way, we could only ignore it. The prisoners will be transferred.

Hearing this, Xia Feng immediately became alert.

What's that person's background?

I don't know. She looks like a little girl from the outside.

Infected person?

When the word infected person was mentioned, the prison guard immediately stopped talking. It seemed that the prison knew that the person was an infected person, but wanted to hide it.

Seeing that the prison guard didn't answer, Xia Feng continued to ask.

Prisoners locked up here are not allowed to carry weapons.

Yes, that man has no weapons on him, but still

Where is the prisoner?

It's the innermost room on the second floor. No one wants to get close except to deliver food.

what is her name?

After hearing Xia Feng's repeated questioning, the prison guard realized that he seemed to have said too much. He coughed lightly and his expression became serious.

You don't need to know this.

Why don't you need it? I was frozen to death and I don't know how I died.

If you don't want to stay here, I can report it to the superiors and transfer you to another prison cell.

Xia Feng thought quickly.

No, there's no need to adjust it. Just give me two more quilts. I'm very strong and can hold on.

The prison guard glanced at him.

Don't be brave. You haven't been convicted yet. Even if you die, we will be in trouble.

fine.

Then the prison guard brought him a few more quilts. Before leaving, Xia Feng confirmed to him again.

That person is locked in the innermost room on my floor, right.

The prison guard didn't answer and left with a cold face.

After the prison guard left, Xia Feng lay on the bed and started thinking.

If this range of cooling is man-made, then there is only one possibility, which is the Originium skill activated through the physical body.

It is impossible for a person locked up here to carry weapons and Originium, so this person must be an infected person, and a severely infected person with an extremely high concentration of Originium in his body.

The Originium technique that causes the temperature to drop suddenly through the release of the body is undoubtedly a type of Ice Originium spell. Searching the memories since coming to Terra, Xia Feng was not completely unable to find any existence related to it.

Moreover, the prison guard's words just now revealed an important piece of information.

This person is a girl.

But based on these alone, he still couldn't be 100% sure of this person's identity.

However, during dinner, Xia Feng got another more important information.

night.

This time it was the kind old prison guard from yesterday who came to bring him food.

But as if he had been warned, he spoke very little this time and hesitated on some of Xia Feng's questions.

Brother, when did the person in the innermost room come in?

Hey, don't ask.

What did that man do?

nothing dealing with you.

I'm not interested either, let's just chat casually.

I don't want to talk. Hurry up and eat. I'll take the plate away immediately after I'm done. I don't want to come here again.

Hey, okay, okay, if we don't want to talk, we won't.

Xia Feng picked up the steamed bun and took a bite, then suddenly his eyes widened.

Damn, there are bugs in your steamed buns. Are you giving these to the prisoners in Longmen Prison? I will file a complaint against you when I get out!

The old prison guard frowned.

impossible.

Xia Feng stood up.

How is it impossible? See for yourself, such a big insect.

As he spoke, Xia Feng approached the iron fence.

Just as the old prison guard put his face over to look for the bug, Xia Feng reached out of the iron bars with lightning speed, grabbed his neck, and then strangled him on the iron bars in a strangulation motion.

The accident happened too suddenly. He was tied to the iron railings, and the old prison guard looked horrified.

you you you you you

Xia Feng's deep voice came.

Brother, I don't want to embarrass you, and I don't know how to escape from prison. I just need you to answer a very simple question.

The old prison guard's face turned purple after being strangled, and he said with difficulty.

This. This is Longmen Prison. Do you know what you are doing!

Xia Feng remained unmoved.

I know, I just need to confirm one simple thing. I don't want to hurt you, let alone violate the rules here. It was your dereliction of duty to be restrained by me. You will also be responsible after being held accountable. You only need to answer me a simple question now. If you have any questions, I will let you go immediately and apologize to you.

The old prison guard gritted his teeth and squeezed out two words.

You ask.

Xia Feng glanced left and right through the iron bars, and then asked in a low voice.

What is the race of the girl locked inside?

This question was indeed not very sensitive. The old prison guard only hesitated for a moment before replying.

Cartes.

This answer made Xia Feng's heart tremble.

Are you sure? It's a rabbit?

That's right, white.
