Reborn in 1993, Dark Sea

The police uniform, the key, and the timing—the police uniform and the key have been found; now all that's missing is the right timing.

For Xu Tianyou, the right time was when the prison guards were most likely to relax their vigilance, while for An Xiaohai, the right time was when Qiu Peng was in charge of patrolling the prison area.

For example, tomorrow would be a good opportunity.

November 26th may seem like just an ordinary day to others, but to An Xiaohai, it holds profound significance.

For example, on November 26, 1095, Pope Urban II called for the Crusades in Clermont.

On November 26, 1832, the world's first horse-drawn carriage was put into use in New York City;

On November 26, 1922, the tomb of Pharaoh Tutankhamun was opened to the public.

……

An Xiaohai had a lot of similar things stored in his mind. In the past, An Xiaohai was very annoyed by this kind of random and useless knowledge, but now An Xiaohai doesn't think so anymore.

These things gave An Xiaohai a strange feeling of being in the long river of history!

"Xiao Hai, after we part tomorrow, I don't know when we'll meet again! At this moment, I really want to recite a poem!" Xu Tianyou started to go crazy again.

I freaking...

"What kind of nonsense are you talking about? I'll be out in three years, and you're making it sound like I'm going to be locked up for life! Stop with the useless talk and hurry up and repeat the important points to me again."

"No need, I've already remembered everything!"

"It's absolutely necessary to repeat it again; don't omit any detail! Any detail could lead to failure."

"Yes, sir, my brother An!" Xu Tianyou had no choice but to repeat all the details of the operation that An Xiaohai had told him.

During the free time that day, Hu Jianming and Yang Bo were not around, which gave the two of them a rare opportunity to practice.

Recently, whenever possible, Hu Jianming and Yang Bo would find various excuses not to stay in their cells, and it is unknown what their purpose was.

However, this is just right, as it makes it convenient for An Xiaohai and Xu Tianyou to communicate. The only downside is that, in addition to communicating, the two must also frequently hurt each other.

Listening to Xu Tianyou's retelling, An Xiaohai remained outwardly calm, but his heart was churning like a turbulent sea.

Xu Tianyou's comprehension and logical abilities are top-notch. Even if he were placed in the National University of Defense Technology, he would probably be among the most outstanding students.

I really don't know why he went down this path. I also don't know what that old man was thinking, to be so heartless as to send such an outstanding son to his doom.

"Okay, I've finished repeating it. Were there any mistakes or omissions?"

"No, but please do it again."

……

When Hu Jianming and Yang Bo returned to the cell, the tension was still palpable. An Xiaohai and Xu Tianyou had more new injuries on their faces, though they didn't look serious. Clearly, the two had fought again.

Hu Jianming and Yang Bo exchanged a glance and silently climbed into their own beds.

Because the room was relatively small, room 232 had bunk beds. Hu Jianming and Yang Bo naturally occupied the lower bunk, while An Xiaohai slept on the upper bunk.

After Xu Tianyou arrived, Hu Jianming gave him his bunk. Therefore, Xu Tianyou slept in Hu Jianming's bunk, and An Xiaohai could see him with just a turn of his head.

An Xiaohai's face stung, and he moved his jaw. Xu Tianyou was doing it on purpose; they had agreed not to hit his face, but he insisted on doing it anyway.

An Xiaohai couldn't help but turn his head to look at Xu Tianyou. Xu Tianyou was also staring straight at him. When An Xiaohai turned to look at him, Xu Tianyou laughed exaggeratedly and gave him a victory sign.

This fits Xu Tianyou's character: the more he smiles at you, the more dangerous he is.

An Xiaohai glanced at Hu Jianming across from him, and sure enough, Hu Jianming's eyes were full of sympathy.

An Xiaohai had mentally rehearsed Xu Tianyou's escape plan countless times; it should be feasible. The thought of Xu Tianyou leaving tomorrow actually stirred a pang of reluctance in An Xiaohai's heart.

An Xiaohai never expected that in this cold and cruel prison, the son of a drug lord, who was seen as eccentric by outsiders, would give him the greatest warmth.

The whole thing is quite ironic!

--------

November 26th arrived as scheduled, and no one noticed anything different about the day.

Getting up, washing up, practicing, going to work... everything was so natural.

Around lunchtime, Tian Qiaoguang came to the factory to find An Xiaohai, asking him to go to the reading room during lunch to handle some computer programming issues.

Tian Qiaoguang looked quite excited. It seemed that the design had achieved its intended effect. He hadn't asked An Xiaohai to go to the reading room to deal with computer program problems; he must have been talking about the design.

An Xiaohai didn't pay too much attention to the results of the design drawings.

Success was a certainty; failure would be an anomaly. However, An Xiaohai did not agree to Tian Qiaoguang's request, only saying that they would go during their free time that evening.

An Xiaohai had something more important to do at noon today.

Tian Qiaoguang did not insist and readily agreed. His impression of An Xiaohai had quietly changed a lot. In his opinion, An Xiaohai was a person worthy of respect.

Most people respect status and money, but only those who are somewhat detached from the world of fame and fortune will respect ability.

The wait was incredibly agonizing; a morning felt like an eternity. An Xiaohai sighed, wondering how Xu Tianyou had managed to get through that morning.

Finally, it was lunchtime. An Xiaohai and the others arrived at the canteen under the escort of the prison guards. Hu Jianming and Yang Bo were already eating, but Xu Tianyou was not there!

An Xiaohai breathed a sigh of relief. Xu Tianyou's absence meant that his first step had been successful.

An Xiaohai quietly lined up to get his food and naturally sat down at the table with Hu Jianming and his group. At that moment, An Xiaohai noticed an unfriendly gaze.

An Xiaohai looked up and saw Qiu Peng.

Today, Qiu Peng was on duty, responsible for patrolling the prison area. Thinking about everything Qiu Peng was about to face, An Xiaohai gave him a big smile without hesitation.

Qiu Peng was clearly stunned. In the past, An Xiaohai had never hidden her hatred for him, so why was she smiling at him today? What was going on?!

Just then, an accident occurred. A prisoner who had just gotten his food slipped and fell heavily to the ground. As he fell, the plate in his hand flew out and hit Qiu Peng, showering him with food.

"I'm sorry, discipline officer! I'm sorry, supervisor! I didn't mean to! I really didn't mean to!"

The prisoner knew he had committed a serious crime, and while explaining himself, he tried to step forward to help Qiu Peng deal with the situation, but was pulled away by another police officer next to Qiu Peng.

Qiu Peng was in extreme distress. Although the food wasn't hot, the dishes the prisoners served contained chili peppers, and the spiciness caused tears to well up in Qiu Peng's eyes instantly.

The prisoner kept apologizing, but Qiu Peng didn't care anymore. He waved his hand to let his colleague deal with him, and rushed to the bathroom to wash his eyes.

"They're all talented..."

After witnessing all of this, An Xiaohai began to eat, feeling increasingly emotional.

The prisoner who fell was not doing it by accident; it was arranged by Xu Tianyou. I never expected that this guy's acting skills would be worthy of an award, far surpassing the young heartthrobs of later generations!

After waiting for about 10 minutes, the offending prisoner was taken away, but Qiu Peng still did not appear.

It seems that step 2 of the plan has been successful.

"Xu Tianyou, now it's all up to you..." An Xiaohai thought to himself as he exhaled.

at the same time

Xu Tianyou had already pried open the steel bar on the workshop toilet window, which had been worn down considerably.

"Damn it, couldn't you have ground it a little more? I almost couldn't pry it apart!"

Xu Tianyou carefully put down the steel bar, wiped the sweat from his face, climbed to a high place, and squeezed out from between the remaining steel bars in a fit of frustration.
