Chapter 465 Wheelchair
Calm down. In any case, let's find the time machine first.

Li Sheng sighed. The good news was that the [Emergency Escape Card] in his inventory was still lit up and could be used unconditionally. However, considering the bizarre teleportation method of this mission and the perverse humor of the Killing Field System,
Let's try to complete the mission normally first, so we don't get tricked by the system again next time.

Let me check my skill list.

With a thought, Li Sheng summoned his personal panel. He saw that the descriptions of all the skills in the skill bar had also changed.

【Dragon's Breath】 has been transformed into 【Children's Version: Milk Dragon's Breath】, with the power of the dragon's breath being similar to that of hot water.

The "Stubborn Stone Rooting Technique" has been transformed into the "Playing with Stone Slag Root Technique," which temporarily turns a part of the body into stone, so that the force of the impact is no greater than that of a metal baseball bat.

The "Summoning Spell: Farmer" is even more outrageous, turning into "Summoning Spell: Fried Chicken and Beer," which summons food and drinks out of thin air, serving no purpose other than filling one's stomach.

Each skill consumes an average of about 10 points of spiritual energy. With the current spiritual energy bar of this body, it can only unleash a skill four times at most.

Similarly, the [Bat Claw Gun] in the equipment bar has been changed to [Kids' Version - Sticky Toy].

It's similar to the sticky hand sanitizer sold at the corner store near an elementary school.

The "Bat Heavy Motorcycle" has been changed to a "Child-Assisted Bicycle".

The automated warehouse has been transformed into a convenience store, with not only the storage space drastically reduced, but even the tanks inside have become remote-controlled toys. The same applies to guns and drones.

"Oh my god"

Li Sheng wanted to complain but didn't know where to begin.

If the system were set to full role-playing mode, it would be much easier, because the battlefield wouldn't issue missions that would guarantee death, which indirectly proves that it's still possible to clear the game even with a child's size.

But this isn't the complete role-playing experience; it also opens up a loophole for players to use supernatural powers, leaving too many possibilities open.

Too many choices can interfere with players' decision-making.

Li Sheng suppressed his distracting thoughts. He only had twenty minutes to complete the first phase of the mission, "Escape from the SVIP Cell," so every second counted.

His hands are currently handcuffed and tied behind his back, preventing him from moving freely. His eyes are covered by a blindfold, and his mouth is stuffed with a cotton towel, so he can only listen with his ears turned to the side.

zizi——

A noise from a faulty light bulb came from above, about 2.3 meters away.

I heard the sound of water droplets hitting the ceramic surface from behind, which seemed to indicate a slight leak from the faucet.

Li Sheng slowly moved his legs, using his socked feet to measure the bed.

The bed measures 1.6 meters by 1 meter; it is a single metal bed placed against the wall. The wall is covered with a layer of foam padding, which provides both sound insulation and protection, effectively preventing suicide by those living inside.

Li Sheng waited quietly for over a minute, making sure there was no other living person breathing in the room besides himself, then adjusted his position, first rubbing his feet together to remove his socks.

Then, leaning against the wall, and using the child's own flexibility, suddenly bend over and use your toes to pull off the blindfold on your face.

Suddenly, his eyes lit up. The room was pretty much what Li Sheng had expected, somewhere between a single cell, a detention room, and a soft-bed room in a mental hospital.

The walls had no windows, there was a toilet in the corner, and the main door was made of steel, which a child could not possibly break through. There was a small, flat hatch in the door, presumably used for delivering food.

Li Sheng shifted his position, and the reflection in the mirror revealed a blonde, blue-eyed girl with distinct mid-to-high latitude Northwestern European features, who appeared to be about eight or nine years old.

There are obvious bruises on my arm.

"I knew it."

Li Sheng inwardly groaned, while the little girl in the mirror simultaneously made a pained expression.

Jeffrey Epstein was a notorious Jewish American businessman who was born in 1953 into a working-class Jewish family in Brooklyn, New York.

In his youth, he first falsified his academic credentials to become a teacher at the private Dalton Academy. During his teaching career in the 80s, he met Wall Street executives and entered the financial world. In the 90s, he became known as Les Wexner, a famous retail entrepreneur and the head of Victoria's Secret.

By managing the latter's financial assets and receiving a large breakup fee, he quickly amassed wealth during the boom of the American internet economy, bought Little St. James Island, and owned multiple top-tier mansions in New Mexico, Palm Beach, New York, Paris, London, and other places.

He has always maintained close ties with the American elite and wealthy circles. His mansion in Palm Beach is only 1.6 kilometers away from the Mar-a-Lago estate of a certain unnamed Trump.

The two had been neighbors for many years and remained friends until 07.

Beneath the facade of wealth and fame, Epstein was actually a pimp with operations spanning the globe.

He and his mistress, Ghislan Maxwell, daughter of the late British publishing magnate and publisher of the Mirror Group, had long maintained close ties with Israeli intelligence. The two were involved in organizing pimping, using the pretext of recruiting massage therapists to lure young girls into providing services to socialites.

Between 2005 and 2017, he was investigated and prosecuted multiple times for crimes including conspiring to traffic underage girls and boys, human trafficking, and illegal imprisonment.

However, because of its extremely strong and complex network of connections, it always received covert protection from top American elites.

(Including but not limited to American Chain Sect, Black Pharaoh, Microsoft's richest man, and former Israeli leader Ehud Barak), resulting in all investigations coming to nothing.

He was arrested again by the FBI in July 2019, and a large amount of evidence was found in his New York residence. On August 10, Epstein mysteriously committed suicide in prison.

No prison guards discovered him when he died, and two minutes of CCTV footage were "accidentally" missing.

The Epstein case, with its long duration, numerous participants, wide involvement of powerful figures, and profound impact, has driven itself like a wedge into the heart of America.

The impact on the foundations of the United States is no less significant than the assassination of Melancholy.

This far exceeds similar cases that have occurred in Belgium, South Africa, and other parts of the world.

The nameless blonde girl played by Li Sheng at this moment is undoubtedly another victim in the unfathomable darkness of Little St. James Island before Epstein's crimes were exposed.

This island is more than just a place for pimping.
Li Sheng was well aware of the critical situation he was in. After looking around the room and finding no hidden cameras, he quietly moved to the head of the bed.

Straighten your back, put all your weight on your thumbs, and press down hard on the metal railing.

His thumb dislocated instantly. Li Sheng shook his hand violently, broke free from the handcuffs, and casually pulled the cotton towel stuffed in his mouth.

Based on the marks on the wrists, the handcuffs had been on for several hours.

There were traces of food residue in the towel that was soaked with saliva.

Combined with the bruises on her arms, one can imagine that a few hours earlier, this little girl tried to escape from the so-called SVIP cell during a break when food was being served.

However, due to limited physical strength, he was quickly captured and brought back, handcuffed and shackled, and his mouth was stuffed with cotton.

"That's not good."

Li Sheng frowned slightly. If he were given the body of a healthy adult, he was confident that he could kill his way through the island with a pencil.

But with a height of 134 centimeters and a weight of 30 kilograms, her delicate body is really a bit difficult to manage—she might not even be able to kick the security personnel's knees when she jumps.

Just as he was muttering to himself,
"Cough cough cough, cough cough cough, cough—"

Outside the metal door, the faint sound of a little girl coughing could be heard.

Li Sheng instantly realized that three short, three long, and three short notes were clearly the SOS distress signal in Morse code.

The only ones consciously sending signals could be the players.

He planted his feet on the ground, stretched them out to the sides, and tightened his anklets as much as possible to avoid making any noise. He quietly walked to the metal door and pushed the trapdoor window open a crack.

The SVIP cells are located underground, with a narrow concrete corridor in front of them, and another row of cells across the corridor.

One of the trapdoor windows was open, and behind it, a pair of large, watery eyes blinked.

In the instant their eyes met, Li Sheng and the other person understood each other's player identities.

The other person stretched out their finger, pointed to the end of the corridor, and then made a gun gesture, indicating that there might be guards over there.

Li Sheng understood and gestured for him to shut up, indicating that he should not make a sound.

Since we can't speak, we can only use lip reading.

'I am an ant, and you are?'

Just call me Oracle.

A divine revelation? Barbara Gordon, the original Batgirl from Batman who suffered a spinal cord injury and spent years in a wheelchair?

For some reason, a subtle sense of familiarity welled up in my heart.
