Chapter 804: Chapter 809: Yan City Prison (2)
Yan City Prison.
After getting off the Cadillac SUV, Ling Chen was escorted forward by several people. With a hood over his head, Ling Chen’s vision was obstructed, unable to see anything of his surroundings.
After walking for a short distance, Ling Chen suddenly felt a chill rising from his feet, a piercing coldness engulfing his body.
Prison!
Feeling this coldness, Ling Chen immediately realized where he was. Only inside a prison would one feel such bone-chilling cold.
Ha! How interesting, they actually brought him into a prison, were they planning to hold him captive for a long time?
While pondering this, a push from behind made Ling Chen stumble forward a few steps. Immediately after, he heard a ’clang,’ like the sound of an iron door closing.
"Alright, take off the hood."
Upon hearing the voice, Ling Chen raised his hands and removed the hood. As light returned to his eyes, he looked around, seeing only an iron door and cold walls on the remaining three sides. There were many sprinkler heads on the ceiling.
Before Ling Chen could react, a spray of water suddenly came out from the sprinkler head above, drenching his body instantly.
"Ling Chen, you should know the rules of the prison. Hurry up and take off your clothes for a proper shower, so we can arrange your new accommodation later."
Seeing the suited men outside the iron door, Ling Chen shrugged and without resistance, took off his clothes and pants, and rinsed his body.
With his skills, he could escape anytime if he resisted. However, Tang Yuan had told him over the phone to endure for a while and not be too impatient. He Ziyun and the old General would help him operate at a higher level to try for a lighter sentence. By then, he would be released after just a few months.
So, to avoid causing trouble for the old General, Ling Chen chose to obey obediently.
After his shower, Ling Chen changed into a clean prison uniform as required. From the moment he put on the prison uniform, his name here ceased to be Ling Chen but rather number 33438.
Looking at the gray prison uniform on his body, Ling Chen gave a helpless, bitter smile. To think he used to send numerous serious offenders to prison, and now it had come to this.
Under the custody of those suited men, Ling Chen was assigned to a cell.
The cell was a double room, and beside Ling Chen, there was another person living in it. The other person was a typical muscular man, standing at a height of about one meter, very robust, with fists as big as cooking pots, exerting an intense pressure.
Once the cell door closed, the muscular man immediately strode to Ling Chen, looking down at him and said in a big brother’s tone, "You’re the newcomer?"
Ling Chen slightly raised the corners of his mouth, nodded with a smile, and said, "My name is Ling Chen, may I have your name?"
"What are you talking? Since you’re new here, you should follow the rules."
"Rules?" Ling Chen asked with a half-smile, "What rules?"
"Kneel down and call me grandpa, then kowtow to me three times. Remember, in this room I’m the boss, and you have to listen to me in everything. Got it?"
"Really? So...how should I serve you now?"
"Start with a shoulder rub for me." As he said this, the muscular man sat on the bed, patting his shoulder, indicating for Ling Chen to come over.
"No problem." Ling Chen smiled and walked behind the muscular man, placing his hands on his shoulders and began to gently knead. After a while, the muscular man’s face started changing, growing paler, and his body began to tremble uncontrollably.
"Bro... brother..." The muscular man swallowed his saliva and said with a trembling voice, "You... I..."
Ling Chen asked with a smile, "Buddy, how’s my technique and strength?"
"Enough... enough..." The muscular man pleaded almost in tears.
"Alright." Ling Chen released his hands and sat down beside him, looking at the muscular man, "Buddy, who’s in charge here from now on?"
The muscular man, rubbing his shoulder, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead with one hand and said fearfully, "You, you are."
"Good, then I’ll reluctantly accept. Here, give me a back massage." Ling Chen comfortably sat with his legs crossed, wishing for a cup of tea just then.
After chatting a bit, Ling Chen learned that this was Yan City Prison and also discovered the muscular man’s name was Qin Genglong, who had just turned thirty and had been imprisoned for seven years.
"Yan City Prison..." Ling Chen raised an eyebrow, thinking to himself that this was not good.
He only thought he was imprisoned, not realizing he was in Yan City Prison. He knew Yan City Prison too well; back when he served Ghost, he had sent numerous serious offenders to this prison. Those offenders were either ruthless murderers or leaders of international crime organizations. In Yan City Prison, probably about ten percent of the serious offenders were arrested by Ling Chen.
If those guys knew he was imprisoned here, who knew what they would do to him.
"Qin Genglong, what crime did you commit to end up here?" Ling Chen asked.
Yan City Prison, Ling Chen knew too well. Some serious criminals who should be sentenced to death but still had value would be imprisoned in Yan City Prison for life.
So, Ling Chen was curious, what kind of crime had Qin Genglong committed to end up here.
Being imprisoned for seven years meant he was imprisoned at 23. Looking at Qin Genglong, he didn’t seem like a vicious person; on the contrary, he had an honest face.
"Um..." Qin Genglong scratched his head and said embarrassedly, "I was framed by a friend."
"So you’re an honest man, huh?"
Being framed by a friend suggested Qin Genglong really fit the phrase ’simple-minded, well-developed limbs.’
"What crime did you get convicted for?"
"Arson."
"Arson?" Ling Chen asked puzzled, "But arson alone wouldn’t get you imprisoned here, right?"
"More than a dozen people died." At this, Qin Genglong lowered his head, looking very sorrowful.
Sigh!
Ling Chen sighed softly.
No wonder he ended up in Yan City Prison, if not for Qin Genglong’s... he would probably have been sentenced to death long ago.
"Buddy, you seem honest enough, you should stick with me from now on."
"Stick with you? Why would I stick with you? What’s the benefit?" Qin Genglong patted his chest and said, "I’ve done quite well here already."
Ling Chen said with a smile, "Stick with me, and I can get you out of here someday."
Upon hearing this, Qin Genglong’s eyes lit up, looking at Ling Chen with anticipation and asked half-believingly, "Really?"
"Of course it’s true, it depends if you want to stick with me."
