A Runaway's Guide to Baisha Bay Prison

Jiang Que transmigrated into the tragic heroine of a period novel.

The heroine's family had fallen on hard times. Before her grandfather died, he held her hand and said, "Go to the Yu family in Hong Kong. You're engaged to one of them."

But the heroine's lover was also in Hong Kong.

The heroine gave up her wealthy engagement, chose love, and moved into her lover's home, where she worked like a servant. But not long after marrying her, her lover turned into a kept man living off a rich young lady, and made the heroine stay home as his housekeeper. It was enough to destroy anyone's worldview.

The good news: Jiang Que had a System.

The bad news: it was a corrupted System.

The missions offered generous rewards, but were the kind of troublemaking tasks you'd expect from a prison.

[Mission 1: Help a thief escape. Reward: shooting system]

Jiang Que glanced at the mission, then at the thief.

The next day, the thief successfully escaped from prison.

On the third day, the thief came crawling back to the prison gate in tears and informed on ten accomplices.

"She sent me to the house I'd robbed, and that lunatic chased me down the street with a cleaver for three whole blocks! I'm never leaving again!"

[Mission 2: Counsel a murderer and show him care. Reward: lie detector system]

On the first day, Jiang Que became best buddies with the murderer.

On the second day, Jiang Que and the murderer drank and chatted merrily.

On the third day: ...

Murderer: "Wait, wasn't I only supposed to get ten years? How did I get the death penalty?!"

[Mission 3: Arrange a family visit for a sex offender. Reward: lie detector system]

Sex offender: "I meant my family! Not the victim's family!"

Before long, Baisha Bay Prison became a model prison in Hong Kong.

Every prisoner behaved themselves, and even the most hardened criminals turned into obedient little kittens, lining up to confess their crimes.

The prison's permanent population soared, and all of Hong Kong became remarkably peaceful.

Police Commissioner: "So Jiang Que was their lucky star all along!"

Correctional Services Commissioner: "We're full, we're full! We really can't take any more people! TAT"

Jiang Que conscientiously carried out the missions assigned by the System.

How the mission progress looked to her:

Beep - Progress 10%

Beep - Progress 20%

How everyone else saw Jiang Que:

Prisoner: "You're the only one who believes me. I really didn't kill anyone."

Beep -

Prisoner: "My friend, you have to believe me. I only killed one person."

Beep -

Prisoner: "...Two, two!"

Beep -

Prisoner: "Fine, I killed them all, okay?!"

Everyone: ...

A walking lie detector!

At the bustling harbor, Jiang Que spotted Yu Baizhou at a glance, tall and elegant, with the bearing of a noble gentleman.

His subordinate spoke up on his behalf: "You're the old master's own son. Why should you have to pick up your nephew's fiancée?"

Looking at that pleasing face, Jiang Que had only one thought:

Even cold, hard cash has a warmth to it.

**The heroine never actually helps any prisoners escape. Everyone has a duty to obey the law.

"Neighborhood Committee Chaos and Daily Life [The 1980s]"

Wei Yu, who died in the line of duty in the 21st century, transmigrated into a period novel and was forced to take over the original owner's job.

As a committee member of Chunfeng Lane's neighborhood committee, Wei Yu worked hard every day, trying to fulfill her ideals and ambitions, and then...

The Zhang family lost their braised pork. The Li family lost half a fish. The two families argued furiously, while the cat under the table burped.

Old Wang was reported by his wife for improper conduct, carrying on with Xiao Li. Old Wang felt very wronged: "We were just stealing coal briquettes together!"

A mother-in-law and daughter-in-law argued for three whole blocks, determined to fight to the bitter end. The neighbors gathered to watch, and the theme music for the evening news rang out right on time: "Hurry to the Zhou family's! There won't be any room left if you're late!"

Wei Yu: "..."

What happened to her grand ambitions!

*

The original owner was timid and had been pressured into marrying a twice-married man from the same village. His previous wife had been beaten to death.

Wei Yu would rather die than go through with it. She steeled herself and decided to find the handsome male supporting character whom the original owner had once helped.

So what if she had to guilt-trip him?

After much difficulty, she reached Chunfeng Lane and knocked on the male lead's door in a row of Western-style houses.

Wei Yu: "Help me get out of my engagement."

The male supporting character, who was being pressured to marry, agreed. They hit it off at once, vowing to be a fake couple.

After the wedding, Wei Yu realized that he wasn't quite like the man described in the book.

The male supporting character in the book: sunny and gentle.

The male supporting character in real life: cold as ice.

Looking at that face, Wei Yu gritted her teeth: His coldness is just an act. Deep down, he's sunny and gentle. I'll win him over!

She brought him meals, water, and warmth.

She flirted every which way, even when it took all her courage.

Thanks to her tireless efforts, the fake couple finally became real.

They spent their days entwined and their nights in passionate bliss.

Until one day.

Wei Yu opened the door to find a sunny, gentle man standing there, identical to the male supporting character.

The man said happily, "You and my older brother are together now?!"

Wei Yu: "..."

So he really was cold and aloof?
