This speech got straight to the point.

Liu Zhizhong nodded. It was the same voice of Liu Dongyuan from before, not much changed, just slightly hoarser.

Liu Dongmei could feel even more clearly that it was indeed the voice of Liu Dongyuan when visiting him in prison.

Indeed, Liu Dongyuan was not lying; his hearing loss was severe.

Why on earth was that?

Liu Zhizhong and Liu Dongmei were puzzled, eagerly awaiting an answer. They felt upset inside about Liu Dongyuan's misfortune!

Next, it was indeed time for Liu Dongyuan to open up. Aside from some military secrets he couldn't disclose, he talked about everything he could.

It turned out...

After Liu Dongyuan was sentenced, he was indeed serving his time in Haixi Prison.

The two sentinels he accidentally killed were truly unlucky. They were indeed relatives of a certain General at the base, one was a son, the other a nephew. These sons were just experiencing life at the base and were expected to rise quickly through the ranks later.

Unexpectedly, on their first day experiencing life as a sentinel, barely an hour into their post, the incident happened.

When Liu Dongyuan first entered Haixi Prison, he was indeed quite honest about reforming himself, yet he endured a lot of suffering.

What can I say?

Although the deceased's families received compensation, their anger couldn't be quelled, and they always found ways to torment him.

Moreover, Haixi Prison was a military prison, and it was exceedingly easy to torment him there.

The grueling physical labor was the lightest form of torture, leaving Liu Dongyuan so exhausted that he couldn't even turn over in bed, just sleeping until the wake-up call sounded.

The key is, batches of special prisoners would be transferred to Haixi Prison, each time about ten people, confined separately.

They didn't really do much work on ordinary days; their main activities were eating, sleeping, and beating Liu Dongyuan.

Under such circumstances, Liu Dongyuan was truly played with miserably. These prisoners who attacked him were all extraordinarily strong.

Whenever they pretended to have farmyard free time, they would always run into Liu Dongyuan, which would result in a beating.

Liu Dongyuan's fighting spirit was gradually awakened; he fought to death.

However, though he managed to knock down many, he himself fell down even more times.

His hearing loss happened bit by bit from the beatings. Even when he was injured, they seldom treated him, only disinfecting with some alcohol and giving some anti-inflammatory pills. His ears? They said it was better if he couldn't hear.

Yet, his combat skills and willpower were honed bit by bit.

He was well aware that those so-called prisoners weren't prisoners at all, you understand.

These guys who repeatedly beat Liu Dongyuan rarely escaped unscathed; some were lightly, others severely injured.

Liu Dongyuan thought that such days would probably continue until one day when he couldn't hang on any longer and would be beaten to death.

He lacked neither willpower nor combat ability, but hope for life, he never had it; perhaps this was fate, he accepted it, just aiming to manage one day at a time.

Of course, under such deliberate torment, his death penalty was suspended for a year and naturally, was not executed, reducing it to life imprisonment.

The others were also discontent, unable to beat him to death while suffering losses themselves, so they gave him the chance of life imprisonment.

Finally, one day, the turning point of fate still arrived…
