Chapter 77

"Let go!" Natalia, blushing, was being carried away by the man for the first time in such a forceful manner.

Lin Yifan raised an eyebrow: "You said it."

"Of course, I can walk on my own." Natalia shot Lin Yifan a glare. It was just a minor injury; did he really have to carry her like a princess?

"Since you insist... Alright."

Lin Yifan slowly put Natalia down, but as soon as her tender feet touched the gravel path, his face showed he was trying hard not to laugh.

To make walking easier, Natalia had taken off her high heels. Her unprotected feet on the gravel were causing such pain that she could hardly take a step.

"How about it?" Lin Yifan teased Natalia.

"Carry me!" Without a word, Natalia extended her arms, feeling both embarrassed and angry, but with her injured leg and bare feet on the gravel, it was too painful.

Lin Yifan picked her up in a princess carry. She wasn't heavy but had a good figure, especially her expression of unwillingness and lack of choice, which made Lin Yifan feel quite satisfied.

Carrying Natalia toward the prison door, Lin Yifan hummed a tune and didn't look at her again, fearing that a few more glances would make her want to find a hole to hide in.

"Could you help me put on the mask?" As they approached the prison door, Lin Yifan nudged Natalia with his chest.

Fuming, Natalia grabbed the mask and, on a whim, took her stockings and put them over Lin Yifan's head: "Hmph!"

With his head covered by the stockings, Lin Yifan didn't show much emotion. Instead, he took a deep breath and teased, "What, your stockings smell pretty strong."

"There's no way..." Natalia's face turned red as she secretly sniffed them.

Besides a faint milk scent, she also smelled Lin Yifan's sweat.

"Ugh! It's not me, it's your own sweat!"

Lin Yifan, with the black stockings on his head, grinned: "Did I say you stink? I said your scent, how does it have a rose and milk fragrance?"

"Do you want it? I'll go home and get you roses and milk, and wash you all day to clean you and your dirty mouth!"

"Not now, I'll remember it. I'll go to your place to wash later." Lin Yifan, with a thick face, "agreed."

As they spoke, Lin Yifan carried Natalia to the front gate. The prisoners had already been locked up by Tokishima Sae and the others, and the open area was empty.

Nan Li Xiang leaned against the wall at the entrance of the cell block, chatting with Kurakawa Shizuka, who was waving a medical gun around. Tokishima Sae stood by another door, eyes closed, resting.

The little girl Saya was pestering Miyamoto Rei with questions.

As for the fat otaku Hirano, he was sitting on the lawn, fascinated by the guns he had confiscated from the cycle travelers, as if those guns were his wives.

When Lin Yifan carried Natalia to Kurakawa Shizuka, she covered her mouth in shock, looking at the man with stockings on his head: "Excuse me... who are you?"

"Ha... hahaha, what kind of kinky play is this, wearing a stocking head cover at night?" Nan Li Xiang burst out laughing.

Lin Yifan's thick skin was nothing, but Natalia, in his arms, buried her head in his chest, her hands not idle as she pinched his thigh hard.

Saya, who was still pestering Miyamoto Rei with questions, suddenly looked up, her eyes flashing with anger, and ran over: "What's going on?"

"Nothing, this delicate prosecutor twisted her noble foot on her first visit to this place. Shizuka is treating her."

Lin Yifan teased, but the blonde's hand on his thigh was pinching even harder.

"Okay! This gun is very powerful, a few zaps and it won't hurt anymore!"

Kurakawa Shizuka happily picked up the medical gun, as if she hadn't had enough fun today, and shot a few times at Natalia's injured foot.

Green light shone on Natalia's beautiful legs, and the swollen red area gradually recovered.

As soon as her leg was better, Natalia eagerly got off Lin Yifan. The grassy ground, with some dry grass, was much better than the gravel.

Natalia had just stood steady when she was startled by the little girl standing in front of her with her hands on her hips.

Saya stared at Natalia and Lin Yifan, who was still wearing the black stockings: "Suspicious, very suspicious."

At first, Natalia didn't react, but under the light, she found the girl increasingly familiar.

She then looked at the doctor who had treated her, her lips slightly parted, and her face showed surprise.

"You... you brought a character back after just two cycles?!"

At that moment, a white-clad girl suddenly emerged from a mirror, waving at Natalia with a smile: "Hello."

Seeing the various girls in prison uniforms, especially Sadako, who had been brought back by Lin Yifan, Natalia felt her brain couldn't keep up.

Natalia leaned close to Lin Yifan's ear and whispered, "Impressive, you brought back so many people in just two cycles! One more beautiful than the other, from lolis to mature women, from humans to ghosts, you really know how to play."

"Thank you, thank you. It's all thanks to everyone giving me face, right?"

Kurakawa Shizuka, standing nearby, raised her hand and joined in: "Right! Hehe."

Natalia, seeing Lin Yifan's smug smile, didn't want to say anything in front of so many people but cursed him in her heart for being shameless.

Sighing, even Natalia had to admire Lin Yifan's ability to lure people. Though she couldn't match him verbally, the fact that so many girls had been lured made her feel a bit more balanced.

Natalia took a deep breath, calmed down, and said, "It's getting late, let's not talk about meaningless things. I want to see the prison."

"Welcome, welcome."

Lin Yifan took off the stockings and put on the mask with a voice changer.

Pushing the door open, everyone except Natalia put on their masks and entered the cell block.

The thirty fraudster prisoners were all shackled and thrown into the detention cells.

Natalia checked the temporary prison, examining the strength of the iron bars. When she saw the cafeteria, she nodded in satisfaction: "Not bad, even though they are prisoners, their basic food needs must be met."

The old accountant who followed added, "We do have a cafeteria, but the prisoners eat instant noodles..."

Lin Yifan quickly covered the old man's mouth and calmly said, "Actually, the food isn't great. They usually have pickled vegetables with rice or some simple meals."

The old man, silenced, spat out a mouthful of blood. The cafeteria was built to serve instant noodles, and when did they have pickled vegetables?

"As long as they don't starve, and give me your account."

Natalia, checking the cells, regained her usual seriousness, speaking with composure.

"My account?" Lin Yifan was taken aback and handed over his phone.

Without a word, the rich girl transferred the money that should have been credited to Lin Yifan and said calmly, "They thought withholding funds would stump me? I'll cover the costs first, and the daily expenses will come later."

Impressive! As a prosecutor, Natalia didn't care about such a small amount. A little money, and they were trying to intercept funds? The rich girl could easily come up with millions.
