Chapter VI: Life in Prison
With a movement of thought, the quilt appeared in his hand again, and the entry in the beep boy disappeared accordingly.
"Damn, it's amazing, isn't this the pocket of the blue fat man.... I do feel like I'm getting heavier when I put it in...."
Andy played the "magic trick" a few more times, confirming that anything that could be carried by him could be quickly stored in the Pip-Boy, and that those things seemed to have disappeared out of thin air, and the only proof of their existence was the information in the Pip-Boy.
When he came back to his senses, Lao Fan was gone.
"Alas..... That's it, how long do I have to stay here? ”
Andy collapsed on the bed, bored and began to flip the beep boy on his arm, trying to see if he could find something else interesting.
“...... Game features? ”
Andy's eyes lit up and he immediately clicked in, but then there was a relentless black screen and a hint.
[Note, you need to insert the game cartridge to play.] 】
“...... What's the matter, can't there be a few mini-games built-in? Such complex data can be calculated, and even a small game cannot be stored. ”
He then turned the button to flip through the other options.
"Educational Function ....."
When I checked it in, I found that there were some strange texts stored in it, which seemed to be general education knowledge or something, and it was marked that these courses were humanitarian education courses designed by Tibbetts Prison, specifically designed for inmates.
"Interesting, I'll see what's written in there."
Andy was lying on the bed looking at the beep boy monitor on his arm, he always felt that such a scene was familiar, but he couldn't remember why.
[Prison Introduction: Tibbetts Prison was built in 1895 and was authorized by the SA Congress, and the construction manpower came from the labor camp escorted from nearby Tibbettsburg, hence the name of the prison. It was initially completed in 1907, and the first prisoners to be accommodated were the builders, and the prison was a male prison, with a maximum capacity of 636 people. 】
"Built in 1907..... What year is it? ”
Andy suddenly remembered this important question, not knowing that this year's year was a very embarrassing thing, he quickly rummaged through the Pip-Boy, and finally found that the Pip-Boy had a built-in schedule, which should be connected to Tibbetts Prison.
"This year.... Year 2253? Good guys...."
Andy lay on the bed and looked left and right, it doesn't look like a prison with a history of more than 300 years, it is estimated that it has either been renovated and rebuilt many times or he is in a newly expanded area, although he can only see the current small single room, but the sense of advanced technology is overwhelming.
"Forget it, let's see..."
He decided not to think about the minutiae anymore.
[In 2042, in the safe house program launched by the SA government in cooperation with Poseidon Energy and Vault Technologies, two defense contractor companies, Tibbetts Prison was officially handed over from the government to the company, and Vault Tech used its strong technical capabilities to transform the prison into an efficient factory, and the products produced by Tibbetts Prison were later supplied to shelter buildings around the world. During this time, Vault Technologies has demonstrated its extraordinary management and operational capabilities. The assembly line only requisitioned half of the inmates' labor, and the income from its output had already offset the daily consumption of Tibbetts Prison, and on this basis, even the first major expansion of Tibbetts Prison was completed. 】
Andy read this passage repeatedly, and he had a feeling that this half of the prisoners were probably not "motivated" to love labor so much, and that the other half of the prisoners were assigned to do something suspicious..... This isn't going to happen today, is it? He didn't want to be dragged out of the blue, "volunteering" for more than 15 of the 24 hours to do work like dusting.
[In 2070, Tibbetts Prison completed the automation transformation in response to the needs of society, and the entire prison did not have any human employees and jailers, and completely relied on all kinds of robots to operate, and the prison supervisor was specially developed by the well-known AI scientist Derek Green for several years, and its code name is Odysseus. 】
"I said, why haven't I seen a living person until now..... It turns out that this place is simply unmanaged.... It should be called non-living management. ”
After flipping through it for a while, drowsiness began to sweep over Andy, and he just lay down on the bed and fell asleep all at once.
After he fell into a deep sleep, the faint white light in the room gradually died out, and eventually the entire cell went completely dark.
In a drowsy state, Andy had a dream that was almost always a few flashbacks, and it seemed like he had experienced it himself, but let's be honest..... To put it simply, those clips are quite violent, and they seem to have exploded more than a person's head, whether it's a gun or a stick....
Getting up from the bed, Andy felt a little worried, he was still very sure that he must be a law-abiding citizen, but now he is not sure.
"Beep-beep-"
A strange beep suddenly sounded on the wall next to him, and then, to Andy's surprised gaze, a piece of the wall about 1.5 meters above the ground suddenly retracted, and then revealed a groove, and a metal plate extended out.
There is a bowl on top that seems to be made of eco-friendly materials, and next to it is a small paper bag, judging by the shape, it should be cutlery.
Andy walked over and opened the small paper bag, and sure enough, there was a spoon inside, and the material was also made of environmentally friendly materials similar to bowls, which were not very strong but could be used.
He reached out and took the bowl of food, which he placed on the small table beside him.
To the naked eye, the bowl can be described as mushy, yellowish mush, but it smells almost non-existent, and with a few spoons, it feels as if it has been brewed with some kind of powder.
Andy pondered for a while and felt that this kind of thing was very familiar, and finally suddenly realized that it should be some kind of potato product.
"Breakfast at Tibbetts prison is potato mush? ......”
Andy picked up the spoon and took a bite and ate it into his mouth, the paste can be called bland and tasteless, and after swallowing it, he felt that he couldn't taste anything, and it was not much stronger than drinking water.
Frowning and barely eating the bowl, Andy put down the spoon and bowl and sat aside.
Not long after he sat down, he suddenly spoke from the place where the voice had come from before.
"Reminder, prisoner No. 13, please put the utensils back in place according to the prison regulations, if you refuse to do so, the food supply will be interrupted for 24 hours according to the prison regulations."
Andy smashes his mouth and walks over and pushes the spoon and bowl back into the small space on the wall, and as soon as he retracts his hand, the cubicle closes immediately, presumably the cutlery has been automatically recycled.
