Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Ten minutes after the introduction of the virus, Gu Ding looked at the age-restricted scene that was showing on the security feeds in the monitoring room. He dialed the ergency number that connected him to Old Henry. “Um, Mr. Chief Warden, I’m the newcor, Gu Ding. I’m in the monitoring room now, but... I just discovered... that there’s sothing wrong with the security feed...”
“Understood. I will co imdiately. Inform the network technician and get him to co up with a solution.”Old Henry hung up the call urgently. Gu Ding guessed that he must have known about the news of the virus infection on other branches of Skyriver Prison.
He was not worried that Old Henry knew about it. It did not change the fact that the system was about to collapse.
In a few minutes, Old Henry arrived at the monitoring room. At the sa ti, he received news from the network technician that the system had already collapsed.
“We’re ready to unlock all the doors and restraints. Pay attention to Uncle Cain’s position and find an escape route for .” Gu Ding covertly told Neptune his new instructions.
“Mr. Chief Warden, I’m going to the washroom,” Gu Ding inford Old Henry and walked toward the washroom. Old Henry’s eyes were transfixed on the security feed and did not pay attention to Gu Ding.
In the washroom, Gu Ding locked himself behind a cubicle, took off his prison guard uniform and put on a filthy prison uniform. He did not imdiately step out of the washroom after changing, but rather sat on the toilet and observed the evolution of the situation through the security caras under Neptune’s control.
After the restraints and doors were unlocked, the inmates started to riot. In less than five minutes, so inmates were rushing toward the office block of the prison.
Gu Ding turned off the security feed. He heard that the chaotic noises were already near and he knew that the inmates were drawing in. Only then, he pushed open the door to the cubicle.
At this mont, the door to the washroom abruptly slamd open. A prison guard in uniform rushed in and locked the door, panting heavily. Gu Ding’s heart skipped a beat. He took a Silent Step and quietly slid behind that guard, then delivered a karate chop to the back of his neck. The prison guard fainted instantly.
Gu Ding dragged him aside, then unlocked the door and exited the toilet. To his left was the prison office block. It was loud and chaotic there. Gu Ding turned right and walked toward the prison cells.
Neptune had already determined Cain’s position and Gu Ding ran all the way there. Broken equipnt and machines were strewn all over the corridors. The inmates had destroyed everything along the corridors out of anger. Water coolers, coffee machines, auto-vending machines... nothing was in working order.
Gu Ding had also t many inmates with vicious faces. Fortunately, he was in prison uniform and no one bothered him. He quickly found Cain among the crowd.
“Uncle Cain!” Gu Ding shouted.
Cain was currently frowning, wondering which way he should take at a junction. He heard soone calling his na and turned to look with so suspicion. He rembered that the only people who knew him on Cerule were Rose and her crewmates. He was the only one captured this ti, so he was doubtful that he knew anyone in this prison. When he saw Gu Ding appear in front of him, he was shocked.
“Lil Gu Ding, why are you here?” Cain was confused.
“Follow and I’ll explain on the way out.” Gu Ding led Cain along the corridor that led to the office block. “This commotion is only temporary. We have to escape as soon as we can.”
Gu Ding covertly told Neptune to inform Cain’s crewmates to rendezvous with their leader at any ti and imdiately set sail.
On Cain’s ship, First Mate Cavill was surprised to receive a ssage from a stranger. He was about to say sothing with soone next to him shouted. “I received a ssage saying that the boss is escaping. It’s telling us to set sail at any ti.”
“I received the ssage too!” Many others were shouting at the sa ti.
“Quick! Start the engines and prepare to sail! Once we rendezvous with Boss, we leave imdiately!” As First Mate, Cavill made a quick decision.
“Are you sure this ssage can be trusted, First Mate Cavill?” Soone asked.
“I can’t tell if it’s true, but I would trust it.” Cavill looked toward the direction of the Cerulean Prison with shining eyes.
Gu Ding brought Cain and walked toward the office block area. Cain did not know where the exit was and could only follow closely.
“Let’s change our clothes at the prison office block, then we can swagger our way out of this place.” Gu Ding told Cain his plan. He chose to change the clothes at the prison office block because the number of violent inmates there was less than the other regions of the prison, even though it was under attack by a mob. Furthermore, other prison guards were attracting the attention of the violent mob, so they had less chance of being attacked.
In the prison office block, Gu Ding sneaked into a washroom and Cain followed closely behind. Gu Ding retrieved two sets of prison guard uniforms from his Inventory and tossed a set at Cain. “Change up, then you can head toward the port. I’ve already told Cavill to prepare for your arrival. They should already have the ship’s propulsion systems ready by the ti you get there.”
They changed their clothes in separate cubicles, then Gu Ding brought Cain toward the main entrance.
Just as they exited the washroom, they bumped into three vicious-looking inmates. They thought the two were real prison guards and rushed toward them.
Cain took a sidestep and his body flashed. Three karate chops landed on three necks, the speed was faster than Gu Ding could discern. The three inmates collapsed silently on the floor. Gu Ding had a hint of admiration in his eyes, but he did not slow down or hesitate while escorting Cain to the exit.
At the main entrance to the Cerulean Prison, Cain raised his eyebrows. “I don’t know how you did it, but I thank you for saving my life. They’ll eventually find out that you’re the one who did it. Why not follow us?”
“No worries, Uncle Cain. I’ll be fine. You’d better go, your crewmates are waiting for you.” Gu Ding waves his hand coolly and smiled his trademark smile.
Cain did not press on the matter. He guessed that Gu Ding might have so other ans to escape. He waved toward Gu Ding then disappeared from sight after a few leaps.
Two inmates arrived at the prison entrance. They were not bothered with Gu Ding’s prison guard uniform. Rather than picking a fight with him, they escaped quickly. However, one of them glanced at the direction in which Cain’s ship departed.
COMNT
Gu Ding did not bother with these two people escaping. He sent a ssage to Auntie Roastbeef. “Auntie, Uncle Cain has already escaped from prison. You don’t have to worry now.”
