73: New system rewards

Chapter 73: New System Reward

Inside the police station's detention room.

“You’re always too soft-hearted, too soft-hearted…”

“La la~”

Huang Yu lay comfortably on the communal bed, leisurely propped his legs up, and hummed a tune.

On the bedside table next to him, there was a bottle of '82 Lafite, barely touched.

“This is the life I want!”

Huang Yu opened his eyes and glanced at the empty detention room, feeling a surge of emotion.

“It’s so comfortable without those Dead Crooked Mouth Dragon Kings around.”

He got up, picked up the wine that had been decanting for a while, and poured it into a stemmed glass.

After swirling it twice, Huang Yu drained the red wine in the glass.

The rich aroma of the wine stimulated his taste buds, as if permeating his Soul, finally granting him some respite.

“The joys of life, nothing compares to this.”

Not to mention being accustomed to a life of luxury, even a stint in a cell was a rather unique experience.

Especially this time.

He had specifically made arrangements with that big-chested woman, Han Yuyao.

She had specially arranged a single room for him.

And because Xia He had been apprehended, Han Yuyao was probably in the interrogation room, reviewing and taking statements with other police officers.

This way, not only was Xiao Zhan, that Dead Crooked Mouth, not present, but even that violent woman hadn't come to bother him.

Huang Yu felt he had never been so idle.

It was truly wonderful.

However, the occupants of the adjacent detention rooms were utterly astonished.

They watched Huang Yu enjoying himself immensely in his detention room.

He could even drink red wine?

Was this a detention room or a guesthouse?

Especially a few old alcoholics, temporarily locked up for drunk driving or drunken brawls.

Smelling the rich aroma of the wine, their eyes widened instantly, and they all eagerly pressed against the bars, staring at the opposite room.

They wished they could rush over and gulp down a few mouthfuls.

“Fragrant, it’s so fragrant!”

“This foreign wine is actually so fragrant! It’s almost comparable to Maotai, isn't it?”

The prisoners in the various cells watched Huang Yu swirling his red wine glass, constantly swallowing their saliva.

“Hey, young man, can I have a sip of your wine?”

“Yeah, yeah, let’s be friends!”

As soon as this was said, people in several detention rooms started to stir.

After all, most of the people inside were fond of drinking.

“Scram!”

Huang Yu's single, calm word was his direct response to everyone.

He was in jail not because he had committed a crime, but because he wanted to be there.

He was far different from these criminals who were incarcerated for various bizarre reasons.

“Kid, you’re being ungrateful, aren’t you? Do you know where I’m from?”

“So arrogant at such a young age, don’t you know how to respect your elders?”

“I’m telling you, my second uncle is a Property Manager! If you don’t obediently kowtow to me, you’re dead!”

But Huang Yu remained calm, swirling his red wine glass, occasionally taking a sip, completely ignoring the group.

“Help! Help!”

“Where are the police? Someone’s drinking here, and you’re not doing anything, are you?”

Aside from a small number of people who didn't want to cause trouble or were in the know, many others shouted in anger.

“Why are you giving this kid special treatment?”

“Do you believe I’ll file a complaint against you?”

“Hurry up, where are the police? Where have they all gone?”

Seeing Huang Yu’s special treatment, and then looking at their own cramped detention rooms, the group grew increasingly envious.

“You bunch of idiots, stop making trouble! You want to cause problems, don’t you?”

Just then, a bald, heavily tattooed man with Dragons and tigers on his body in one of the detention rooms suddenly stood up.

He walked to the bars of the detention room, pushed away the people clinging to them, and threw them to the ground.

“Try yelling again!”

Looking at the bald, heavily tattooed man with Dragons and tigers covering his back, the people in the various detention rooms all swallowed hard, their previousArrogant demeanor completely gone.

After all, by the looks of him, he was clearly a gang member.

If they got out and he retaliated, their small arms and legs wouldn't even be enough for him to pick his teeth with.

Seeing everyone quiet down, the bald, tattooed man snorted coldly and cursed.

“Do you know who this is? And you dare to shout!”

“This is Young Master Huang!”

“Young Master Huang, could it be…”

Hearing that title, someone in the detention room suddenly thought of something, and their gaze turned in shock towards the single detention room.

“That’s right, it’s the Huang Family from Tianhai!”

“Are you not dying fast enough by challenging him?!”

The Huang Family's influence in Tianhai City was immense; even if many people didn't know the Huang Family's standing in military and political circles, they knew the Huang Corporation's position in Tianhai's business world.

This was a powerful figure not to be offended.

Those who had initially harbored resentment towards the bald, tattooed man now all withered and quieted down.

Especially with the reputation of the man, and the shadow he cast.

Whether it was the Huang Family or the Huang Corporation.

Their names were nowhere near as formidable as the title of Young Master Huang, the leader of Tianhai's Four Young Masters.

As the most notoriously fierce of Tianhai City's Young Masters, countless people had their legs broken for offending him.

Who would dare provoke this Young Master?

“Young Master Huang, are you alright?”

After silencing everyone, the bald, tattooed man's fierce expression changed, replaced by a fawning smile.

He came to the bars, leaned on them, and spoke softly across the corridor to the single detention room opposite.

“It’s me, we met in Detention Room No. 3.”

Huang Yu, who had been humming with his eyes closed, slightly lifted his eyelids and looked across.

“Oh, it’s you.”

He raised an eyebrow.

This person was none other than the leader of the tattooed hooligans who had been punished by Blood Handed Butcher Nie Xiao to kneel in a row on the floor in Detention Room No. 3.

“Yes, yes, yes, just call me Xiaoqiang.”

The bald man chuckled fawningly, “Well, you just rest comfortably, with me here, they definitely won’t disturb you.”

“Mm.”

Huang Yu nodded, then continued to close his eyes and rest.

The bald, tattooed man, on the other hand, was beaming with excitement, turned around, glared fiercely at everyone, then looked at the other detention rooms, and whispered.

“I'm warning you, who dares to disturb Young Master Huang’s rest? That’s going against me, Scarred Qiang.”

“If anyone dares to offend me, I’ll kill him when I get out!”

After all, opportunities to curry favor with Young Master Huang didn't come around all the time.

Although he was the leader of a group of small-time hooligans, that was nothing compared to the prestige of working under Young Master Huang.

Indeed, driving after drinking today was the smartest thing he had ever done.

Meanwhile, as time ticked by, the clock outside the detention room once again pointed to midnight.

The next second.

The familiar voice echoed in Huang Yu’s mind again.

【Congratulations to the Host for successfully surviving another day without being trampled by any Son of Destiny.】

【Congratulations to the Host on receiving the System reward: Portable Space, with a size of 10*10 meters (upgradable).】
