Chapter 19: Island City Prison

After Xu Mo arrived at the place Caesar said, the sky began to gradually brighten, and the first rays of the morning sun appeared on the horizon. Although it is already a suburb of New York City, the number of cars on the seaside roads is starting to increase, and the whole city is about to wake up.

The small island in the distance by the sea was blurred in the misty morning mist, as if a giant beast was lying on the surface of the sea. The place where Caesar tells Xu Mo is a prison, and the state prison in New York is located on this small island.

The island is about two kilometers from the coast, and the buildings on the island are mostly low, and there are no high-rise buildings. The island is connected to the coast by a bridge that arches in the middle and a sentry box at the front, which checks all vehicles and pedestrians passing through the bridge.

Standing at the top of the arch bridge, Xu Mo could use the scanning system on the steel mask to look down on the prison in the distance. The prison is surrounded by a wire mesh like a tennis court fence, and a ring of barbed wire with barbs is wrapped around the fence.

A few dozen meters behind the barbed wire fence are rows of low-rise buildings, which form a large quadrangular shape, and in the middle is a large empty playground, and there are several basketball hoops in the middle of the playground, which should be a place for prisoners to look at the wind.

At the top of the prison gate is a reinforced concrete covered bridge, with a guard tower at each end of the bridge, and a security gate behind the gate. If you want to sneak into such a prison, even if Xu Mo has a stealth system, it is difficult to enter through the main entrance, and you have to walk through the barbed wire fence next to it.

The secret base of the werewolf clan is under this prison, and in fact, this secret lair of the werewolf clan was established much earlier than Caesar imagined. Back during the Civil War in the United States of America, werewolves bought the island through secular agents and expanded it again during World War II.

After the war, the United States passed federal land acquisition laws to reclaim the island from the secular agents of the werewolf tribe, and then built a state prison on top of it. After that, Caesar had no way of knowing if the secret werewolf base on the island was still in operation.

"Cole!" While he was pondering, Caesar's call came to his ears. Xu Mo looked down and saw that Caesar had already chased after him, hanging under the arched bridge, looking at his position.

"Let's go! Let's go to the island first! Xu Mo knew that Caesar didn't see him, but his sensitive nose could roughly identify his location.

"How are you going to get into prison!" Xu Mo frowned and said, his stealth system couldn't get Caesar out of it.

"Hey, come with me!" Caesar chuckled and led Xu Mo towards the island. The two walked for a while, and Caesar took Xu Mo to find an underground drainage passage in a prison.

Black garbage wrapped around the iron fence at the mouth of the pipe, and a thick green moss hung from the mouth of the pipe, which was more than half a man high. Xu Mo slowed down the pace of his breathing and frowned, "Is there no other way to get in?" ”

"I haven't been here in a long time, and I don't know of any other entrances. Besides, even if there were other entrances, they should be inside the prison, and we couldn't find them! Caesar pouted.

"Let's go!" Xu Mo sighed, and as soon as he raised his wrist, the light of the wrist knife flashed, and he cut off the iron fence at the mouth of the sewer, and entered the sewer of the prison with a short body. Looking at Caesar's stinky face, you can know that the smell in the pipe is very unpleasant, and fortunately, Xu Mo's steel face has an air filtration system, so he doesn't have to endure the torture of the stench like him.

After a short walk through the half-human-high drain, the two entered the prison's sewer system. There's a lot of space in there, and the smell is much more comfortable than the drain pipe just now. Xu Mo asked Caesar, "Have you found the entrance to the underground base?" ”

"No, it seems that this passage, Lucian's people have not been used for a long time, and I haven't felt the breath of werewolves along the way." Caesar rubbed his nose and said with a bitter face, "Could it be that they closed this base a long time ago!" ”

"I don't think so, there's a state jail above the base, which is more effective than any cover-up. As long as the underground base below is not discovered during the construction of the prison, Lucian will not give up this base. However, the prison's domestic sewage now passes through here, and they should have changed the entrance to the underground base! Xu Mo said slowly.

"The sewers here are like cobwebs, and the smell is complicated, and we may not be able to find the real entrance even if we look for it for a few days!" Caesar said listlessly.

"Hmph, this island is surrounded by the sea on all sides, and there is only one bridge across the sea in the passage, how do you say that Lucian's people can enter and exit the base without being discovered by the worldly humans!" Xu Mo narrowed his eyes slightly.

"They can buy off the prison guards, or we can do that!" Caesar perked up and twisted his neck.

"There are some agents of the werewolf clan in the prison administrator, but the state prison is the first department after all, these agents will only be a minority, and they will only be used in emergencies, and it is impossible for them to cover for the werewolves in normal times."

Xu Mo smiled confidently, "What's more, there are so many prisoners in the prison, with many eyes and mouths, after a long time, they will definitely find abnormalities, do you think Lucian will not think of this, and they are as single-celled as you!" ”

"That'...... Did they go by sea? As soon as he said this, Caesar shook his head, "Drowning two kilometers at the bottom of the sea is nothing to us werewolves, but I always feel like they won't do it!" ”

"You idiot, of course you didn't drown at the bottom of the sea! Isn't it more noticeable to drown two kilometers every time you enter and exit, and go ashore wet? Xu Mo rolled his eyes angrily, "Lucian, they have found a convenient way to enter and exit without attracting attention!" ”

"In what way? Do they dare to swagger out through the main entrance? Caesar scratched his ears and said casually.

"Yes, they just swaggered in and out of the main entrance of the prison somehow!" A mysterious smile appeared on Xu Mo's face.

"It's impossible, you have to go through several checkpoints through the main gate, not to mention the prison guards, even the prisoners in the square can see this side, if there are suddenly a few more unfamiliar faces, they will be exposed immediately!" Caesar looked at Xu Mo suspiciously, although he was simple, he was not stupid.

Sometimes, people's habitual thinking will hinder their correct judgment. The prison guards will be wary of the prisoners, and the prisoners will keep an eye on the guards, but there is another kind of person who will not attract the attention of the guards and the prisoners, even if they are unfamiliar faces, and can even enter and exit the prison openly! A flash of wisdom flashed in Xu Mo's eyes, "I think, you should take me to those places to see ......"

After a while, Caesar led Xu Mo to the underground of a building, "This is the place you said, do you think they will really use this place?" ”

"Although the Blood Clan and the Werewolf Clan lost the war, the long life of the two races is enough for them to accumulate a huge amount of wealth. Too many years will make the undead tired of everything, not to mention enjoying wealth, sometimes even life will have no sense of existence, so you say, what will they do with these riches! Xu Mo smiled and said.

"You're right!" Caesar sighed silently, as an undead creature, he could feel this feeling, "Even a handsome guy like me who is cheerful and dashing has to open a fight club and some bars to kill time, so the rich big man is afraid that he will set up some big companies and big enterprises to pass the time!" ”

"......" Xu Mo looked at the narcissistic single cell with an expressionless face, "Okay, let's wait here." Wait until evening, and we'll go up and have a look, and I guess by then, your dog's nose will find some clues on it. ”

Xu Mo and Caesar stared wide-eyed, squatting in the filthy sewers, waiting for the night to come......

"Alright, there's no one, come on!" The invisible Xu Mo shouted in a low voice into the tunnel.

"Whew!" When Caesar climbed up, his chest rose and fell, and he took a few deep breaths in a row, "Suffocate me!" ”

Xu Mo ignored Caesar, who was playing with treasure, and turned his head to look around, there were piles of cloth everywhere, all kinds of dyed paints, as well as large and small sewing machines and cloth cutting machines, this was a garment factory.

This garment factory belongs to the Federal Penitentiary Industries Corporation of the United States, and the garments produced by these cannot be circulated in the market, and are basically the uniform of the ** institution and the military. Every day, a large number of vehicles enter the prison in the factory to bring in raw materials and transport finished products. Of course, these vehicles are strictly inspected by prison guards, and inmates in the factory are generally not able to escape from prison through these vehicles.

However, there are blind spots in the inspection of prison guards, such as the drivers and company personnel who accompany the car, they basically do not pay much attention, as long as they have official documents, these people can easily enter and leave the prison. However, there is no way for ordinary people to get into these vehicles, which are closely monitored by the Federal Penitentiary Industries.

However, for the werewolves in the prison's underground base, they have a natural advantage to avoid all these troubles. The vast wealth could not control the Federal Penitentiary Industries, but it had no problem controlling their subsidiaries, which avoided the issue of identity documents in the first place.

Secondly, the werewolf's body is strong, and they can hide where normal people can't hide, which makes werewolves without identity documents also able to sneak into the prison in some vehicles. As soon as they enter the factory floor of the prison, then these werewolves will disappear into the factory.

By solving these two major contradictions, even if there is a small trouble, the werewolves can also cover up the past, so that they can openly connect the underground base to the outside world through the factory in the prison.

"Cole, come on, I've found ......," Caesar suddenly suppressed his excitement and whispered.
