Chapter 155: Prison Visit
Evenmore Prison is a prison directly under the city of Dmingham, and criminals who have violated the law to a certain extent will be sent here by sea by sea by receiving a prison ship.
Anthony is no exception.
As a criminal who was imprisoned for five years, it seemed serious, but in fact it was a rather light punishment compared to what he had committed.
After all, overthrowing the pillar family of a chamber of commerce alliance will face an endless pursuit by some people in many cases.
Under this premise, prison and safe house are the same meaning.
Even so, despite the tireless propaganda of the outside news agencies, a considerable number of people still consider him a hero, and the five-year prison sentence he endured was the suffering imposed on him.
This sentiment is also widespread in prisons.
You must know that most of the people who are imprisoned here are low-level people, and they naturally admire a person who dares to challenge the authority in their eyes.
The same is true for most prison guards.
"So that's why you look a little fatter now than you did when you came in?"
Donald sat on a bench inside the prison, and across a table was Anthony, who looked a little blessed.
He was dressed in an off-white cotton suit, which was the uniform costume of the prisoners, and for this man, who was accustomed to dressing in fine clothes, he even managed it well.
The embarrassing scum, the sturdy and upright body, and the easy action as if a pair of shackles were removed, but it made him more wild and angry like a dead wood in spring.
Donald could even feel that the momentum on his body had broken through compared to before.
Since Anthony was imprisoned, this was the first time Donald had come to see him, and there had been a short interval between them, not because Donald was not available or unwilling to come, but to avoid suspicion.
When the limelight eased a little and the government looked away from Anthony, he sneaked over.
It also turns out that the vigilance against Anthony is being relaxed.
Now the two of them were just separated by a table, without any glass in between, and there were no guards next to them.
It is also a place in the prison for people with lower sentences and less serious crimes.
Don't forget, Anthony is an outlaw, and now it's just a symbolic pair of shackles on his hands.
"Broad-hearted and fat-hearted, you told me this, the only thing I am obsessed with in my life has been completed, and it is quite smooth, there is no reason to be unhappy, not to mention that although my sentence is now five years, there are many ways to reduce the sentence in this prison, I can reveal a little information to you...... My cooking, in many cases, is more effective than any hard work, and now the warden, deputy warden, and guard officer of this prison are all my guests, and the title of excellent prisoner, hey, it's just soft. ”
Anthony put his hands on his lap, his posture was very relaxed, and occasionally he could say hello to a few passing prison guards, like a prison celebrity, and when he waited for someone to pass, he said in a deep voice,
"That guy, is he dead?"
Anthony was referring to Mathil Tate, of course.
Without speaking, Donald just raised his hand and pointed to Osweihai outside the prison, which went without saying.
"That's good, I'm happier now. ”
The index finger scratched the tip of his nose, and the smile in Anthony's eyes grew stronger.
"Your drink, I got it from over there, lemonade. ”
Stephanie carried a small plate with three drinks, and Lilo, who followed her, had one in one hand, all hers.
"Introduction, Stephanie, my girlfriend, has been courting me, and only recently reluctantly agreed, but she helped you a lot before, and she was also my teammate in the Anomaly. ”
Lilo and Finger had met Anthony before, so there was no need to reintroduce them now, and Donald added an additional prefix to Stephanie's introduction, and the two have now confirmed their relationship.
"Ah, what do you mean by me pursuing you? When have I pursued you before!"
In this regard, no woman will let go.
"Haha, you guys in front of me can make me feel very uncomfortable, I won't say much if I thank you, wait for me to go out, make you a dinner party that I am good at, it's very good for girls, beauty and health. ”
Raising the drink glass in his hand, Anthony is not a person who is good at words, he likes to speak with actions, paused, and then looked back at Donald and said,
"How's it going out there?"
"What else, as always, nothing special, I'm still working as an errand in the Abnormal Adjustment Bureau, earning merit, thinking about finding opportunities to be promoted as soon as possible, and at the same time I'm also looking around for materials for talent potions, in addition to seeing you today, I'm going to participate in the auction of the Sea Bazaar later, hoping to find what I want." ”
Although the game on some levels has been very intense both overtly and covertly, for a "small" investigator of the Anomaly Bureau like Donald, these things have nothing to do with him for the time being, and Demingham can see that he is still peaceful and stable.
Behemo Edward was assassinated?
For some, this may be a crucial piece of information, a sign that something might change in the near future, but for Donald, it's just a newspaper story.
Successful or unsuccessful assassination will have no effect on him.
Although Donald has been exposed to some things, such as Nancy, the Owen family, and the tattoo on the back of the woman caught in the Tate family.
There are some amazing secrets hidden behind these things, and he is vaguely aware of them, but because of the low level of personal contact, he can't connect these things together.
That's the limitation that comes with identity.
I have to admit that Donald is now a small character in the eyes of many people, even if he has done great things, he also hides a shocking secret, but in the eyes of those people, below the awakening level is no different from an ant.
Of course, this is not a bad thing, Donald wishes that these things should not be involved in himself, participating in a battle of this level, the enemy is someone who dares to assassinate even a dominant-level existence, let alone him.
"I thought something was wrong with Demingham and you needed my help, to be honest, in this state, if I wanted to escape from prison, it would be very easy. ”
Anthony raised his hand and waved the shackles below, the prison guards him were simply outrageously low, even those who were weaker than him and didn't know how much were bound and fed by dozens of kilograms, and he was simply shackled, and there were no seals.
"Hey~ Don't have this kind of thought, even if I encounter great difficulties or dangers outside, you are not allowed to come out, and it takes so much effort to add this layer of protection to you, if you are stupid and tear it off yourself, don't blame me for turning my face when the time comes. ”
Donald had thought of many ideas to get Anthony out earlier, but robbing and escaping had never been considered.
You must know that Anthony can be sentenced to 5 years because of his heroism, and now such a lenient treatment is also due to this, and once he has the idea of escaping, whether he can run away is another matter, at least his aura will be deprived immediately.
The people like a hero who sacrifices his life for justice, and they are willing to stand in solidarity with such a person, but there are also a considerable number of these people who will jump out of the hero immediately after making some wrong choices and become a faller.
They don't care what Anthony did to escape from prison, in their eyes it is wrong, even if you run away to save the world, it is wrong.
For example, if two people quarrel today, one old and one young, they will support the old man with all their hearts, saying big things such as the order of the young and the old, respecting the old and respecting the old, and so on, and belittled the child, quickly seizing the moral high ground, attracting the attention and echo of others, and they feel that what they are doing is so correct and comfortable.
Suddenly, one day, they found out that it was actually the child who was hurt, and these people would stand on the child's side "without hesitation" and lash out at the old man.
As for the reason, it is natural that they want to uphold justice, even if they have done something wrong before, is it a good thing to know that they can correct their mistakes?
Yes, it's a good thing that they know that they can correct their mistakes, but as for other people, whether they know their mistakes or not, they definitely can't give a chance to correct them, otherwise who will they scold?
Donald used the pressure of public opinion mobilized by this emotion to force the government to sentence Anthony lightly, and made them afraid to do it in private, relying on these people.
In the unlikely event that Anthony escapes from prison, the government will also use public opinion to completely choke Anthony to death, and the interesting thing is that it is likely to rely on the same people.
"I've thought about it carefully, it's the harm to me to let you out now, and until there is no better chance, you should stay in it with peace of mind. ”
No matter how you think about it, Anthony can only leave the prison through the normal process, unless it is specially approved by the government, and there is no need to think about anything else.
"By the way, I heard from the prison guards that Dmingham's new airship is about to ascend to heaven?"
"Ascension....... Your word is not a good word in my hometown, not so appropriate, I will also go up later, by you said this, inexplicably have some bad premonitions, when the time really happens, it will all be counted in your crow's mouth. ”
Donald took a sip of lemonade and put it on his lap, and Finger was already waiting in his arms.
"Haha~ Don't say it, something is really going to happen to this new airship, do you believe it or not, it must be a strong stroke in history? When the time comes, you, as a participant, will be more or less a face, reasonable, and not a loss. ”
"Hey, you have a fucking sense when you say that..... Hahaha~"
The two looked at each other and smiled, and Stephanie was also showing her face next to her.
Donald, who is smiling happily now, doesn't realize that in today's Demingham, as a powerful outlaw, many times he can't be a chess player, so he can only become a pawn.
There are some things that can't be done even if you are eight strokes.
When you take that step, you have actually stepped into the whirlpool.
Go straight or leave the game?
It's all up to you.
