Exhaust Pipe rolled his eyes as he walked over. “You think you’re nine-tenths as impressive as me? Please, I’m obviously better looking and younger than you, pretty boy. I’m Exhaust Pipe, the boss of this cell. If you’re willing to listen to me, I’ll have your back from now on.”

Jokingly, Exhaust Pipe even patted Brian Carter on the shoulder.

“Ding, congratulations on checking in with Exhaust Pipe successfully. Reward: Perfect Invisibility Technique. The host can claim it at any time.”

Brian Carter, “……”

From the moment he transmigrated until now, it had been a week before he finally went through the trial process and entered the Lai Chi Kok Detention Centre. Aside from the initial sign-in that gave him Cantonese fluency, this damn Multiverse Sign-In System had been completely silent.

Brian Carter almost thought this thing was a hallucination. What’s going on now?

At this point, the system was truly Brian Carter’s only way to avoid prison and clear his name. He immediately perked up, thought quickly for a few seconds, and then spoke. “My name is Brian Carter. I’m not in any gang. I was framed for robbing a gold shop and got sentenced to five years.”

Exhaust Pipe burst out laughing. “Wow, Vaseline, he’s a robber just like you!”

Vaseline also laughed and gave him a pat on the shoulder. “Five years will go by fast!”

“Ding, congratulations on checking in with Vaseline successfully. Reward: 100 Hong Kong dollars. The host can claim it at any time.”

“……”

Exhaust Pipe gets the Perfect Invisibility Technique, Vaseline gets 100 Hong Kong dollars?? What the hell?

Shocked by the difference in sign-in rewards, Brian Carter still took the initiative to greet Teapot, Curly, and Links.

“Ding, congratulations on checking in with Curly successfully. Reward: 100 Hong Kong dollars. The host can claim it at any time.”

“Ding, congratulations on checking in with Lanks successfully. Reward: Improved Maoshan Daoist Body Transformation Technique, upgraded to Minor Marvelous Divine Power. The host can claim it at any time.”

“Ding, congratulations on checking in with Teapot successfully. Reward: Double base constitution and stamina. The host can claim it at any time.”

Five people, five check-ins—sometimes the other person would laugh and pat him on the shoulder, sometimes it was a handshake, sometimes he’d try patting the other person’s arm.

The five sign-in rewards… were so absurd that Brian Carter was left completely bewildered.

He didn’t rush to claim the sign-in rewards. Instead, he waited until after chatting and socializing, as time passed and the group of five, including Teapot, fell asleep one by one. Only then did Brian Carter begin to study each reward and claim them one by one.

At dawn the next day, Brian Carter suddenly realized—he might actually be able to attempt a prison break!

The story of Lucky Stars and their ingenious schemes was old, and compared to the era he was born and raised in, it felt ancient. But Brian Carter was a real Hong Kong movie buff and still remembered the general plot vividly.

Exhaust Pipe had invisibility? Not at all. That was just a prank in Lucky Stars, where they fooled around and played tricks on each other. But Brian Carter had actually signed in and gotten the Invisibility Technique—and it was the perfect version.

Would breaking out now be too reckless? Should he wait a few more days, get familiar with the environment, and secretly plan a route?

But is there any need to wait? He had the system, invisibility, and divine powers. He could just charge out with his cheats.

Should he just go for it with the system rewards?

Chapter 002: Isn’t This a Bit Too Exciting?

In the Lucky Stars story, after getting out of prison, Exhaust Pipe was really into metaphysics. The first time he tried the Invisibility Technique manual, he put on clothes to test if he was invisible, but Lanks and the others impatiently shooed him away.

They even tricked him, saying, “What invisibility? Even if you really were invisible, your clothes would still give you away.”

So Exhaust Pipe immediately ran around the villa naked, causing a lot of laughs.

But the Invisibility Technique that Brian Carter signed in for only required a thought to activate. He could turn invisible, and anything he was wearing—clothes, watch, even things he was holding—would also become invisible.

With ordinary invisibility, you’d still have to worry about making noise when you walk, or your breathing being heard if you stand still, or your body odor spreading.

The perfect Invisibility Technique that Brian Carter got meant he didn’t have to worry about making any noise while walking, wouldn’t leave footprints, could even run without a problem, and his body temperature, scent, breathing, and panting would all be perfectly concealed.

If you stood invisible in one spot and someone shone a flashlight at you, the light would pass right through your body.

That’s the perfect version!

Of course, the perfect version didn’t make him completely intangible. It was just invisibility—if he bumped into someone while invisible, he’d still feel pain, and the other person would get knocked or even fall over.

The duration of invisibility depended on his physical condition. For example, when an ordinary person runs, even jogging, they eventually get tired and can’t keep going. If it’s a 100-meter dash or a kilometer race, after a few runs, they’re exhausted.

Brian Carter’s Invisibility Technique worked the same way. His stamina determined how long he could stay invisible.

He was only 21. Back in school, when he did morning runs, he could jog ten kilometers in an hour before collapsing from exhaustion. How long he could maintain invisibility—he really wouldn’t know until he tried.

With such a perfect Invisibility Technique, it would be a waste not to try a prison break.

As for the improved Minor Marvelous Divine Power he got from Lanks, it was just baffling.

In Lucky Stars, Lanks was an undercover cop. After helping the Lucky Stars capture Jason Brooks, the counterfeit king, Lanks was reinstated and promoted to Chief Inspector. This guy didn’t have any absurd abilities.
