Rockschreifer and Verak returned to the Security Ministry building to have dinner together. After the meal, they were taken back to the room where he was under house arrest to rest.
Although he had officially cooperated with Rock Shriver and revealed two important sites of the Equality Society to him, Rock Shriver still did not completely let down his guard against him. The two agents responsible for guarding him stayed close to each other, making his
There has been no change in status.
This is completely in line with Verak's prediction.
Being on an equal footing with someone who can easily take your own life is pure wishful thinking.
The room under house arrest had no windows, which made Verak, who liked to stand by the window and blow the air whenever he was worried, a little uncomfortable. He turned off the lights, lay on the bed, and stared at the ceiling directly above in the darkness.
What will greet him next?
He doesn't know.
There is no death penalty in the Republic of Bresci. It is not easy to execute him. Therefore, the first thing he faces is to be tortured or directly sent to prison. Both of these are choices worse than death. The only advantage is that he is still alive.
, there is hope as long as you are alive.
Therefore, Verak did not commit suicide early to get rid of all the troubles in the world.
He is ready to go through any hardships and obstacles, and he will survive no matter how dark the road ahead is.
In fact, Verak's mind is completely blank now. He doesn't know what else he can gain by persisting, apart from physical and mental abuse. He just subconsciously feels that death is an escape and a cowardly act. He can't live another life again.
Compromise easily.
"Verak..." Verak whispered his name again.
The room was extremely quiet. Verak could only hear his own breathing. He stared into the darkness and said, "Live."
"Bang!"
With a loud kick on the door, the light from the corridor shone into the room. Verak was still lying on the bed, but turned his head to look at the kicked-in door, and Rock Shriver who walked in menacingly.
"What do you mean?!" Rock Shriver lost his composure for the first time and asked Verak, looking a little crazy.
The agents followed him in, turned on the lights in the room, lined up behind Rock Shriver, and confronted the lying Verak.
"Didn't I say it before? I will not cooperate with you, nor will I compromise with you." Verak said unhurriedly, his eyes slightly narrowed, as if he was laughing at Rock Shriver, "Idiot.
"
There was only one possibility for Rock Shriver to be so angry, and that was that Boyin had successfully escaped. Thinking of the Equality Society's crisis being resolved, Verak felt happy and did not feel the atmosphere was tense at all.
"You still have one last chance." Rock Shriver said with a cold face, "Tell me, why did Bo come in?"
From Rock Shriver's perspective, Boyin's capture and escape was obviously planned. So if they made this plan but failed to rescue 'Chris', they must have planned something extremely important.
!
What exactly did Boyne and ‘Chris’ discuss in their private meeting?
What plans are they brewing?
Locke Shriver, who was letting people in and letting them go, had a bad premonition. He always felt that this was a fatal mistake.
"We talked about very profound things." It was a little uncomfortable to tilt his head and neck to one side. Verak simply lay on his side and looked lazily at Rock Shriver, whose eyes were like knives. "Music, opera, and
Movie."
"I said this is your last chance. Since you didn't take advantage of it, this will be the last time we meet." Rock Shriver is also a tough man. He didn't ask once and he didn't break his promise. "Finally, I
All I can tell you is your destination."
"Tell me about it."
"You have worn out all my patience, so next I will send you to Damans Prison. As for your other companions, I will assure you that they will not even have a chance to enter the prison. I will send you one by one.
Pull them out of the sewers, shoot them to death on the streets, and then throw their bodies to their parents and their children." Rock Shriver finished speaking viciously, pushed up his glasses, sneered and turned around to leave.
Verak sat up and said to Rock Shriver's back: "I will fight alongside them in prison."
Rock Shriver said nothing.
Verak got out of bed, turned off the broken door and the lights, and returned to the bed. He kept his posture with his hands behind his head and stared at the ceiling. He suddenly chuckled, then breathed a long sigh of relief and closed his eyes with a smile.
Early the next morning, the agents woke up Verak and gave him time to wash up and get dressed. After he tidied himself up, he was escorted through complicated procedures and handed over to other departments.
——
Three days later, that is, September 12th.
Verak, along with more than 20 criminals and political prisoners, have been escorted by relevant government departments to the southernmost port, facing the world's largest bay, the 'Oral Bay'.
After crossing the bay and heading east, you can reach the United States of Dunman. That is almost the same as the route originally planned by Verak, but their destination is not Dunman, but a rocky island dozens of nautical miles away from the mainland.
On the way, Verak heard other prisoners who had some information mention the island.
After the Age of Discovery began, a lighthouse was built on this uninhabited island for navigators to identify directions and routes.
Eighty years ago, the Brexi Empire renovated it and built a nearly isolated prison. Because this prison is far away from the mainland, only ships escorting new prisoners and transporting supplies come and go every month, and there are never any
The criminals escaped from prison, so it was named Damans Prison, which means diamond, which means indestructible.
This prison is notorious and houses more than 2,000 common criminals and political prisoners.
Because it was designed to carry a thousand criminals when it was built, after the criminals seriously exceeded the standard, it was difficult to maintain the infrastructure and the environmental conditions plummeted.
As a result, rats were infested, infectious diseases such as tuberculosis were prevalent, and prisoners often had rotten feet due to gangrene.
In addition, because the prisoners are malnourished, the prison guards are bloodthirsty, and the repressive environment causes a large number of prisoners to suffer from serious mental illnesses every year. Chronic diseases and suicide are the two top causes of death in Damans Prison every year.
All deprived hundreds of lives.
Verak, who had never caused trouble before and was insulated from crime and prison, had never understood that when the criminals who were about to become inmates who often dealt with crime and prison told him the horrors of Damans Prison with ashen faces.
, he realized that surviving in such an extreme environment was not as easy as he imagined.
No wonder Rock Shriver threatened himself with the words "Dymans" at every turn.
At that time, Verak did not know the meaning behind these three words, so he was unmoved. Now, after being handcuffed with anklets and handcuffs by the prison guards who came to the harbor to receive new prisoners, and roughly pushed onto the ship, Wei Lac
Lark frowned, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
