Chapter 291: Crane Robbins

Compared with the Reef Island Prison, the environment of Pokhara Prison is much better, the Reef Prison is isolated, the island is small, and almost all the prisoners there are sentenced to life imprisonment or death, although there is no guillotine in the prison, it is not difficult to kill people, stabbing through the iron door, shooting the head with a steam spear, it is easier to dispose of the corpse, and throwing it into the sea like the plot in "The Count of Monte Cristo", it will not take long to be eaten by the creatures that inhabit the reef.

As a result, the prisoners were almost always kept in cold, damp and cold cells for almost 24 hours, except for regular feeding of pigs, waiting for the prisoners to fend for themselves.

Pokhara Prison is located in the inland area, lively, and it is the only prison in the Barun Kingdom that has been designed to be protected by a magic array, and some low-level spellcasters and bloodline knights who have committed crimes will be imprisoned here, and the control of prisoners has not been treated as good with the appeal of the powerful in recent years, at least it will not be treated as a beast.

After a few days of life in the western prison, Harvey was transferred to the east, the environment of the western prison is not much better than the Reef Island prison, where even food is a problem, the prisoners basically have no heart to do things, but the eastern prison has a little bit of the taste of modern prisons in Europe and the United States, and the food here is better than that of civilian families outside.

Human desires can never be satisfied, and after not worrying about food and clothing, prisoners naturally begin to pursue a higher quality of life, but the prison constraints are there, and what can prisoners do when there is no way to change their treatment?

Harvey sat in the corner of the free activity area, seeing the empty mud floor full of people, from time to time there were fierce cheers, in the center of the crowd there were two sturdy men fighting, there were no rules, but it was not allowed to attack the lower body and eyes, until one side was suppressed for ten seconds, it was considered a winner, and the referee was naturally the circle of prisoners around.

Young men always have endless energy to vent, and the lack of working hours in the eastern prisons has made this hobby the most popular activity in the prisons.

Since there is such a primitive fight, it must be indispensable to gamble, and in the conspicuous position of the crowd stands a bookmaker with a barun pound in his hand, and the mud in front of him is marked with stones to mark the odds of two combat prisoners, he is considered the "official prisoner" of Pokhara prison, and basically no one dares to touch him.

The money is saved by working every day, and the prisoners receive the minimum wage prescribed by the law every day, and this money is usually not given directly to the prisoners, but is returned when they are released from prison, so that the prisoners do not starve to death after being released from prison because they cannot adapt to the changes in the social environment.

In fact, despite the rapid development of the Barron Kingdom and the improvement of people's quality of life, it is still impossible to think so much about the prisoners, the money is to motivate the prisoners to work hard, and on the other hand, the money will be seized by the prison administrators. Combat gambling is part of this, and in addition, prisoners can also buy goods at prices that are several times more than the price outside, some cigarettes, snacks, towels and bedding and other best-selling goods.

The chaotic voices did not disturb Harvey, who sat under the shadow of the towering wall to record the inspiration he had gained during this time, the manuscript paper changed from the original one to a small stack now, "The Shawshank Redemption" is now officially renamed "The Shawshank Redemption", and Harvey has preliminarily drawn up the script and the details that need to be noted and revised.

"Hey, what are you writing about?" A young blond man with a hippie smile came up to Harvey and asked enthusiastically, curiously looking at Harvey's words on the white paper.

Harvey smiled back: "Script." โ€

"Script? What is that? Lines from a play or something? โ€

"No, it's a phantom's script."

"Oh! Phantom, is it the phantom that has become popular lately? I've also seen a lot, and my favorite is "The Count of Monte Cristo", can you let me watch it? โ€

"It doesn't matter, but do you know how to read?" There were only a few literate people in the Barron Kingdom.

"I should have asked you this question, I've been watching you for days, I mean you don't look like someone in this prison." The blonde young man sat beside Harvey with a grin, took the manuscript and flipped through it with curiosity.

He read the lines inside: "Poor old Brooks has been locked up in Pokhara prison for too long, his body has been freed, but his soul has been imprisoned forever, he can't sleep all night, thinking about life in prison, the changes in the outside world make him uncomfortable, he misses that narrow world, the freedom he once longed for has become panic, cursed countless days and nights of high walls, but now it has become the only solace in his heart..."

The young man looked up and looked at Harvey in great surprise: "You wrote this?" โ€

"Did you see this manuscript in someone else's hands?"

"No wonder you are a great writer, how can you be imprisoned here? I mean, your identity is certainly not simple, from the very beginning that guy Mike has been observing here in his office, to be precise, observing you, and has been walking back and forth in front of the window for more than half an hour, which is very rare for Baron Mike, who usually doesn't even care about the results of the fight, and his face doesn't look like he enjoys watching the fight at all. โ€

Harvey smiled: "I'm not being imprisoned, I'm going to come in and experience prison life myself." โ€

"Experience life in prison?" The young man looked at Harvey with his mouth open and was extremely surprised, touched his head and said suspiciously: "Then your interest is really strange, oh~ I understand, are you here to create this script?" โ€

"Yes, it's important to me, and it's worth a week of time for me to experience life in prison." Harvey didn't want to live up to this good work, which is known as the first in film history on Earth.

The young man laughed, "I used to have the impression that writers were old-fashioned and proud, but now I think I've changed my mind, and I've noticed that you've been eating the same food as us, which must be uncomfortable for you." โ€

"It's true that the food is overnight, and it's almost spoiled and hard to swallow." Harvey replied with palpitations.

The young man hesitated for a moment, rubbed his hands and asked shyly, "Please forgive my faux pas, I think I must have disturbed your creation, but I am a little curious, what kind of writer would go to great lengths to come here?" If you can, please tell me your real name, and I'll be sure to read it when I go out. โ€

Harvey smiled politely: "That's my honor, my name is Harvey Adrian." โ€

"Oh, Harvey Adrian, that's a good name, my name is Crane Robbins, Harvey ยท ยท Harvey Ed??? As the young man pronounced Harvey's name, his expression gradually stiffened, his eyes protruding slightly, and his lightly picked gaze revealed disbelief in shock.

"Sir, you're not kidding me?"

Harvey Adrian, whose name is probably second only to the current Empress in the Barron Kingdom, is no exaggeration to say that almost anyone who can read knows what this name represents.
