“I-I … I didn’t mean to do it … Brother J, please forgive me….”Tyson knelt until his head hit the cold floor. He was so nervous that he accidentally dropped a glass of wine and spilled it on the man called Brother J.His hands trembled, and his entire body was weak, but he still begged for forgiveness.“Tsk, this coward,” someone scolded him. “Who cares if it was an accident or not? You still dirtied Brother J’s clothes!”After hearing those words, others shouted in agreement, making the atmosphere even denser and hotter.Although he had no particular background in the outside world, Brother K was the strongest in Prison No. 73. He was greatly feared because of his bad temper, his case, and there were many inmates who loyally served him.Tyson was no exception, he was very afraid of that big man. During his two years of life in prison, Tyson had experienced so much bullying, which had gotten worse after Brother K came in a year ago.“Brother J, let us handle this coward,” the same pe

Tyson blinked slowly and murmured, "… is this the voice of God?"With blurred vision, he looked around and found himself in a strange place. There was no pain in his body, no feeling of breathlessness, and none of those annoying noises, everything felt light.Yes, light.The entire room was very dark, Tyson even thought he couldn't see, and his body... was floating.In the next moment, he blinked in surprise, trying to reach the edge, but it was a void. He wondered if this was heaven or hell.A cold mechanical voice soon echoed.[Before binding, please answer this question: Do you still want to live and change your life?]There was no doubt about the answer: it was 'yes.'"I want to live, I want to start over, I want to change my life."[Alright, answer accepted.][System binding starting 0% ... 1% ....]During the binding process, Tyson's head was filled with various plots.It was the day he was born, and his mother had serious health problems. His father was frantically trying to ca

This wasn't Tyson's first experience like this, during his time in prison, he had faced near-death situations several times. If not for the prisoner's last words or the intervention of the system, he wouldn't suspect that everything happening to him was attempted murder instead of just bad luck.He sighed deeply. The remnants of his physical discomfort had healed, and he felt much better now.Tyson rose from the bed and walked into the secret room usually used by 'certain individuals' for their own enjoyment.The system's voice echoed in his mind."Going empty-handed?""Yeah," Tyson replied nonchalantly. "I've died once with regrets, this time, I don't want to regret again."His posture couldn't be changed overnight, still slightly hunched, his face still looking timid.In front of the special room, several guards stood tall, but Tyson didn't care, he attempted to break through only to be firmly restrained."I want to see Big Boss," he said without glancing at them.One of the guards

Tyson sat listlessly in solitary confinement, the madness in his eyes gradually fading, but the anger in his heart still burning fiercely.He despised the reality that he had been so foolish in the past, oblivious to everything.In the past, to prevent his father from being disturbed, he always acted as if he didn't exist. To avoid threatening his brother as an heir, he relinquished all his opportunities. To ensure his sister wouldn't be shunned by others, he took the initiative to keep his distance.Yet, his sacrifices meant nothing. Worse yet, he was to be killed."Why do you think someone in my family wants to kill me?" Tyson asked the system.Before the system could answer, Tyson guessed first, "It must be my brother, right? He wants to kill me because he cares so much about the De Leon family name, whereas my existence only tarnishes it."[Possibly.]Hearing the system's response, Tyson pondered again but couldn't find another answer.He sighed deeply for the umpteenth time, clos

"What's up? After becoming so powerful, you've forgotten about me?" the old voice chuckled softly, devoid of mockery.It was the old prisoner in the same cell as him. Despite being once gloomy and difficult to talk to, this old prisoner had been fairly kind to him. Thus, Tyson harbored no hatred.Yet, what he had just seen in this old prisoner's memories truly stunned him. Indeed, there was no human without significant secrets."I don't think so," Tyson replied. "It's just that my mind has been a bit elsewhere.""You've suddenly changed, like you've been reborn, attracting many eyes," remarked another inmate.Only then did Tyson look around, indeed, he was being observed with various gazes, but he didn't mind.He sat calmly and finished his meal, overhearing the conversations among those at his table. His mind was elsewhere, especially on what he had just glimpsed through the old prisoner's memories.He had made a decision: if he wanted to get out of this place sooner, he needed to fi

A few days later, the Commissioner General of Police finally came to meet Tyson. It seemed that this case was indeed very serious.Tyson smiled satisfactorily, he hadn't taken on the wrong case.The chief warden personally came to fetch him, happiness radiating from his expression. He said to Tyson, "Come on, the Commissioner General has been waiting for you."Tyson followed without saying a word."Remember to mention my name and involve me in it," the chief warden added.Only then did Tyson speak up, "Of course."He wondered how he could not involve this corrupt chief warden. As for how it would end, Tyson could only smirk. No wonder his career ended here, this person was quite foolish.In the closed and secretive room where not even a mosquito dared to enter, the Commissioner General of Police sat upright, awaiting his arrival.Upon seeing Tyson walking behind the chief warden, a slight crack appeared in the Commissioner's composed and stern expression. He certainly doubted the man,

Not long after Tyson was sent back to his cell, the warden came to see the commissioner general.At this moment, the commissioner general still hadn’t gotten over his earlier conversation with Tyson. Although he had made a promise, he needed to weigh the pros and cons before taking any action.Coincidentally, the warden arrived right then.The commissioner general looked at him without revealing anything. He only responded to the greeting with indifference.“Commissioner General, how did your conversation with Tyson go? Was what he said true?”Instead of answering directly, the commissioner general replied with a hint of sarcasm, “If it wasn’t, why would I have bothered to see him?”“Ah, right… of course,” the warden replied awkwardly.Not wanting to linger any longer, the commissioner general stood up and walked out. Before leaving, he glanced at the warden with a faint warning and said, “This is classified. Don’t let any outsiders find out. As for Tyson, he’s crucial for the ongoing

The Storm Within the Calm“Mr. Frederick, why do you think I would accept your offer? After all, I’m still in prison.”Kindness without reason , even if the other party offered a condition , was something Tyson could not accept. Not to mention, this was someone who had once wanted him dead, someone connected to his own family, the De Leons.Although Tyson had no intention of keeping his eventual release from this place a secret, that didn’t mean he wanted outsiders to know too early and prepare for it.Indeed, Tyson wasn’t sure what his family would do if they found out he was being aided by the commissioner general and would soon be freed , which meant slipping out of their grasp.Big Boss clearly understood his mindset, so he explained, “I’m just trying my luck. Don’t worry, I have nothing to do with your family.”Tyson merely responded with a mocking smile. “I don’t care whether you’re connected to them or not. But let me make one thing clear , even if the warden’s downfall is rela

Miss Anna MendesAnna Mendes?Muttering the name repeatedly in his mind, Tyson grew more certain that he had never heard of anyone by that name before.So he asked the system, “Who is she? I don’t know her.”[It’s natural that you don’t. Less than two years ago, Anna Mendes had just returned to this country after living in Urdanica since she was ten years old.]Tyson nodded in understanding.[I’ll send you Anna Mendes’s data details. Don’t forget to review them.]“Okay, thanks. I’ll sleep first.”Before the system could respond, Tyson had already closed his eyes and fallen asleep. In his dreams, he saw that this world wasn’t truly made for him , that he had merely been found by the system by coincidence and given a second chance.That, in truth, he had died on that gallows, and not a single member of his family had come to claim his body, so he was buried in some random graveyard.The dream was terrifying enough to wake him drenched in sweat.“Thankfully, it was only a dream,” he mut

The AgreementThe moment that voice rang out, everyone who heard it showed a look of surprise. After all, ex-convicts always carried a certain air of intimidation to ordinary people.Fortunately, no one seemed to recognize the name the undercover officer had mentioned.“Causing a scene and getting into a fight just days after being released, seems like you missed prison life,” the officer sneered.Tyson glanced at him indifferently and replied with a half-smile that wasn’t really a smile. “If you’d done your job properly, I wouldn’t have had to step in and save a woman from being assaulted.”“Tsk.” The officer clicked his tongue in irritation.He didn’t want to argue further with Tyson. Despite everything, he still had enough sense to know right from wrong, and besides, Tyson’s current status was rather… complicated.Indeed, ever since his release a few days ago, Tyson had been quietly helping the police uncover several hidden plots related to items found in their investigations.Just
