Lv Liang suddenly awoke with a start and, through the flicker of the firelight, fixed his gaze on the corridor where a prisoner was being led in.
Disheveled and dressed in prison garb, the prison guard escorted the prisoner to the outside of his cell, opened the door, and shoved:
"Get in there!"
The prisoner didn't utter a word. With a clang, the government officers departed.
Lv Liang keenly noticed that these few officers were extremely unfamiliar; he had never seen them before.
Furthermore...
Given his status, it was already out of the ordinary for him to be detained in prison without a conviction by now.
According to reason, prisoners should not be placed to co-inhabit a room with him.
"Who are you? What crime have you committed?" Lv Liang asked warily.
But the disheveled prisoner ignored him and only lifted his head, his long, severe knife-scarred face intimidating as he looked:
"Are you Lv Liang?"
