Chapter 289: Two Goes to Prison
Pokhara Prison, one of the largest inland prisons in the Barron Kingdom, has a history of about 100 years, since its inception to the present, there have been countless escapes, but none of them have succeeded, it is a rare miracle in this world, the Barun Kingdom has spellcasters and bloodline knights, and they want to escape from ordinary prisons is very simple.
More than ten meters high walls and iron wires cut off the prison from the lively street outside into two worlds, which is enough to make ordinary prisoners desperate, the prison continues to run a magic array for surveillance, any use of special abilities caused by the fluctuation of the ether element will cause an alarm, the magic array is a high-level mage spent several years carefully arranged, generally speaking, unless it is a spellcaster whose strength exceeds the upper class, it is impossible to deal with the automatic attack system of the magic array, but there are only a very few high-level casters in the kingdom, Even if they commit a crime, they won't be imprisoned here.
Harvey took a fancy to this, Pokhara Prison is very famous in the Kingdom of Barron, and is known as the two major prisons in the kingdom together with Reef Island, where the Count of Monte Cristo escaped from prison in the phantom of "The Count of Monte Cristo".
After a long hesitation between the two films, Harvey still decided to shoot "The Shawshank Redemption" first, this film is the same as "The Count of Monte Cristo" in all senses, but as long as it is given a completely different environment and the atmosphere of the times, then a completely different film can be made, and the same will only be the two films that show the ideas of human dignity, the pursuit of freedom and hope, and these are the spiritual core pursued by countless works.
Now, Harvey is in this prison as a prisoner.
Harvey is familiar with the plot of "The Shawshank Redemption" and will definitely be able to shoot it, but Harvey wants to shoot the culture and atmosphere of the times that belong to the Barron Kingdom, in order to achieve such an effect, Harvey must go deep into Pokhara Prison and experience prison life as a prisoner, so that Harvey can create a character who has lived in prison for more than ten years - Shawshank.
In Pokhara Prison, in the luxuriously decorated prison office, a slightly chubby male aristocrat paced back and forth, and hurriedly persuaded Harvey, who was wearing prison uniform, worriedly: "Mr. Adrian, don't you really need to send someone to protect you?" This is a prison, and it is full of some of the most vicious prisoners, who are irrational and kill people with their bare hands on impulse, and I think it would be better to tell the guards who you are, so that if something happens, they can protect you as soon as possible. ”
"Baron Mike, rest assured, I value my life more than you think, and don't forget that I'm not only a writer but also a spellcaster, if you're not at ease." Harvey came to the desk of the prison warden, Baron Mike, and easily lifted the solid wood desk with both hands, and the thick desk formed a strong visual impact with Harvey's not muscular body.
"Can you rest assured?"
"Uh..."
Baron Mike wiped his eyes, having been in this office for more than ten years, and knew the weight of this solid wood desk, which had only been carried in by three or four porters when he bought it.
A flattering smile hung on Baron Mike's face: "Of course, I don't have the idea of doubting your ability, so do you need me to arrange special treatment for you?" This is a prison, and when the poor are starving, the food for the average prisoner is not much better, and it is difficult to swallow. ”
"No need, I'm just here for a week, and during this time I can be treated as an ordinary prisoner, um~ Please give me some more paper and pen if you can, I need to write my script and inspiration with this thing."
"Okay, okay." Baron Mike, the prison warden, nodded again and again, wiped the sweat on his forehead with his sleeve, and made up his mind that although Harvey was unwilling, he still let the guards take it easy, with Harvey's current identity, what happened in the prison, and he was afraid that his little baron status would not be able to eat and walk around.
Changing into tattered prison uniforms, Harvey was taken to the inside of the prison by the guards after coming out of Baron Mack's office, except for the prison director Baron Mike, no one in Pokhara Prison, including the guards, knew Harvey's identity, in order to prevent others from recognizing him by his appearance, Harvey messed up his hair and smeared some stinky mud, and the whole person became dirty, no different from a beggar on the side of the road.
Pokhara Prison is very large, triangular, surrounded by walls on three sides, the walls are similar to the city walls and are extremely thick, so it is no problem to call this prison a castle, and the inside of the city walls can also hold prisoners, Harvey was arranged to the corner prison on the third floor, which is considered a VIP seat in Pokhara Prison, and you can see the free movement area outside through the prison bars.
"Let's go inside!" The guards were so brutal that they pushed Harvey, who was looking around, into the cell.
The prison was pitch black, unlit, and filled with the stench of toilets, which the Barron Kingdom did not reach the point of preparing toilets for prisoners, but the prisoners were in a wooden barrel and then poured into the septic tank every morning.
Harvey almost couldn't control himself retching, and smiled wryly, regretting the decision.
"It's a bit big, it's okay in a modern prison, but it's similar to a medieval prison."
Pokhara Prison is relatively good in the Barron Kingdom, not as modern as the more modern prison in "The Shawshank Redemption", and many conditions and treatments are similar, such as the prisoners here are allowed to read books and move freely for an hour a day, of course, in this era of labor shortage, it is inevitable to work every day, and the content of the work will change every once in a while, depending on what the factory outside entrusts.
Harvey casts a spell to clear the stench of the spicy eyes in the prison, and lies on the hard stone bed with paper and pen to conceive the phantom plot of "The Shawshank Redemption".
The time in prison was even more difficult than Harvey had imagined, and it was never a good idea to write scripts and inspiration in prison, and the mosquitoes in the sky could easily interrupt Harvey's thoughts, even in the early summer, the prison was filled with a biting cold.
Harvey asked Baron Mike to take care of himself a little, to give himself more free time, and to arrange some jobs that seemed bad to the inmates, so as to observe the prison environment.
At night, Harvey took out the gem ring that Louise gave him, rubbed it on the gem a few times to activate the internal magic array, a faint light red glow was released, and a protective magic array continued to be constant, Harvey used this gem ring mainly to isolate the harassment of mosquitoes, as for the constant magic array of this prison, it seemed that Harvey easily invaded and cracked when he stepped into this prison.
After all, he is only a high-ranking spellcaster in the Barron Kingdom, and his level of constructing a magic array may not be as good as that of the regular median caster of the Magic Association, and Harvey's ability in the field of constructing a magic array is not inferior to that of a title-level caster.
"It's been a long time since I've tried a normal meditation method." Harvey closed his eyes and sighed inexplicably, since the construction of the Crescent Tower, Harvey has been meditating there every time, and now, his mental power has improved significantly, reaching the extreme of the middle caster, and he can step into the hall of the upper class spellcaster at any time.
