If Lecter had not been comforted, the lunatic might have done something at the last moment. Verak could only pray that everything would not develop into the worst possibility, and give him a little more time.
Maybe, half an hour is enough.
In half an hour, this dispute, which has affected thousands of people, will be over.
But without Keating and Dawn by his side, he felt a little guilty. Because next, what he had to face alone was the key to the entire escape plan. It was all up to him to find the right time. When the prisoners just left the square, in two batches
When the prison guards happened to be changing their shifts at the guard post, they launched a riot and blew the horn to break out of the prison.
What if it doesn’t work?
How can he face more than two thousand people who regard him as hope?
Listening to the chatter of the prison guards at the sentry post, Verak's mood gradually became heavy. Without a smile, he looked around aimlessly, but he met a pair of blazing eyes.
There can be countless eyes like this in prison.
This is actually all because of myself.
Verak, who had been deeply uneasy just now, was greatly touched. He closed his eyes and took a deep breath to regain his composure.
"Everyone get up! Get back to work!"
The whistle sounded.
Ten o'clock arrived, and the release of the first batch of prisoners ended.
Verak, who was under tremendous pressure, stood up along with the prisoners and began to walk towards the exit of the square.
The prison guards on the sentry post were also more energetic, waiting for the replacement prison guard to arrive, and were ready to go back and have a good rest.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
Before the whistle blew, Verak came to the place farthest from the exit to rest. At this time, he was walking at the back of the crowd and felt his heart beating on his soul.
As the person behind the scenes and the backbone of the square, he will be responsible for sounding the clarion call for the escape plan to begin.
He was well aware of the difficulty and difficulty of this mission, so his heart beat faster, his palms became sweaty, and every step he took was extra heavy.
As the prisoners left, the five doors in the square leading directly to the work area opened one after another.
One minute.
Two minutes.
Three minutes.
Four minutes.
Five minutes.
The prisoners formed a long queue, and those at the forefront had returned to the work area. At the same time, the prison guard in charge of changing shifts also boarded the sentry post and began to hand over the work.
"Can you hurry up?" Verak urged the prisoner in front of him.
Maybe they were too nervous, so the prisoners walked a little slowly today. After Verac said this, they quickened their pace.
When the prison guards at the sentry post finished their shift and the prison guards responsible for supervising the release of the first batch of prisoners were preparing to leave, Verak struggled to time it and walked out of the square gate as the last prisoner.
Time seemed to stand still as he passed the four prison guards in front of the square gate.
At this moment, every second passed extremely slowly.
The hard work of the past two months and everyone's hopes are now pinned down.
Success is freedom.
Verak slowed down, mobilized all his strength, turned around and rushed towards the prison guard, and let out a heart-shaking roar as if he was about to die: "Up!!! Ah!!!"
"Come on!!!"
"superior!!!"
After Verak roared, other key members also roared, spreading the sound forward quickly, and arrived at the work area in a moment.
As soon as the first batch of prisoners started walking into the work area, Dawn, who had paid 200% attention, heard the sound of "Come on!" and directly broke off a steel pipe on the production line.
, swung at the prison guard nearby who was supervising them: "Come on me!!"
"I fought hard too!" Ross deeply regretted that he was not assigned to fight alongside Verak in the first batch of prisoners. After receiving Dawn's order, he quickly took out the wire he had prepared and followed the instructions he had made while eating breakfast.
As Verak described, he pounced on the nearest prison guard.
But before he could pass, other vicious prisoners around him knocked the prison guard to the ground before him.
Immediately afterwards, one prison guard after another around him was surrounded by prisoners before he could pass by, and was swallowed up in the wave of prison uniforms.
During this period of time, Ross, who had been struggling mentally to escape from prison and commit murder, suddenly felt at a loss.
——
On the ground floor, interrogation room.
Because Keating's legs were disabled, Lecter didn't bother to put handcuffs and anklets on him. He just dragged him to the interrogation chair and sat down: "I think we need to talk."
"What are you talking about?" Keating was calm and looked at Lecter with a smile.
"Gold." Lecter said with a cold face, "What's the point of dragging it on? There's a lot of gold, but you won't be able to spend it if you're locked up here until you die. It's better to speak out and at least get freedom.
.”
"There's no need to talk about it." Keating shook his head.
Just as Lecter was about to speak, there was a knock on the door in the interrogation room, and Adel shouted from outside: "Lecter, open the door."
"No need to talk?" Lecter asked.
"Yeah." Keating said.
"Lecter! Open the door! That's Keating! If something happens to him, your father can't protect you!" Seeing Lecter didn't respond, Adel raised his voice outside, worried that Lecter would do something beyond his control.
"Do you think I don't dare to touch you?" Lecter walked towards the torture rack, "It's been a long time since I've been here. I may make you feel a little uncomfortable later, so don't mind."
Keating turned to watch Lecter select the torture instruments.
When he was first imprisoned, he had experienced torture that was no less severe than that of Verak. At that time, because he refused to let go and was carrying a huge secret, he could not be executed directly, so Adel had to place him in a special place.
, trying to use time to kill his will.
So until now.
"Open the door! Lecter!" There was a violent knock on the door of the interrogation room.
"I don't want to come to this point, why bother, right..." Lecter picked a simple and crude dagger and returned to Keating, "You tell me gold and I will give you freedom, and I can even give you more
A sum of money will help you live more comfortably in the second half of your life, what a good choice is this?"
"That's good," Keating said.
Lecter pressed the back of the dagger against Keating's neck: "Why do I feel that you are as annoying as Chris? You both talk in the same way. You two are becoming more and more alike, as if you were carved from the same mold."
"Yeah." Keating said without fear.
"You really think I don't dare to touch you..." Lecter retracted his dagger, "At worst, I won't bother to be a bullshit warden, and I won't stay in Dymans Prison anymore. I'll kill you before I leave."
, and then push it on Adel, it sounds quite fun, but the pleasure is relatively short."
Keating said nothing this time.
"Open the door! Lecter! Don't do anything stupid!" Adel began to try to shoot the lock cylinder with his gun.
"How's it going?" Lecter ignored Adel. After this period of accumulated repression, he became even more perverted and crazy, with a hideous and terrifying smile changing wantonly on his face.
Keating closed his eyes and listened carefully to what was going on outside.
"Have you decided not to say anything?" Lecter interpreted Keating's behavior as a sign of not answering, lit up the dagger again, and stabbed Keating at the moment when pleasure controlled his brain.
——
For a time, the first floor of the prison was filled with people and gunshots were fired.
Verak quickly knocked down a prison guard, and the other prisoners turned around and attacked the remaining three guards.
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
Two gunshots were fired one after another. The prison guard shot one prisoner in the abdomen and missed the other one.
After the wounded prisoner collapsed to the ground, more prisoners pounced on the guards, successfully subduing them before they could fire a third shot.
Verak didn't care to look at his surroundings. His fists hit the door of the prison guard he had knocked down like raindrops. He punched the prison guard six or seven times in a row until he lost consciousness.
"Close the door quickly! Lock the door! Hurry! Hurry!" After getting rid of the prison guards, Verak then called on the prisoners to close the door.
In fact, he didn't need to say that these had been planned long ago. When some prisoners were fighting with the prison guards, some prisoners had already taken control of the door and locked it.
Everything happened within ten seconds.
After successfully closing the door and blocking the entry of more than 60 prison guards in the square, Verak breathed a sigh of relief. He handed the prison guard's gun under him to the prisoner who knew how to use a gun, and then led others to rush to another door.
The prison guards did not expect that the prisoners would riot at this juncture and cooperated so tacitly, so they were beaten back. In addition, because the riots in various places were almost at the same time, they were completely unable to follow the previous regulations.
The defense was carried out step by step, so it only took one minute for Verak to take control of the five gates.
The first stage of the prison escape was completed. Verak had no time to take care of Dawn in the work area and the backbone of the breakthrough at the exit. He immediately went with more than a dozen prisoners with guns to support his companions who rushed to the second floor.
At present, their biggest crisis still comes from the second floor.
There are more than 150 prison guards resting on the second floor. Verak and others must deal with them before they sense something unusual and break away from their rest to re-arm, otherwise they will face catastrophe.
When Verak reached the second floor, what came into view was a huge melee between prisoners and prison guards. When the riot started, a team of backbones had already rushed up with the fifth group of prisoners, and now they have effectively contained it.
Prison guards.
More than a dozen armed prisoners who followed Verak rushed out from behind him and began to assist their companions who had arrived first to harvest the prison guards who had been resting.
Verak thought of something, picked up a baton and rushed to the door of Lecter's office. He pushed the door open and found that no one was there, then broke into Adel's office next door.
"Damn..." Adel and Lecter were not there, and Verak felt nervous.
Since there are no figures on the first or second floor, the only possibility is that these two people are on the negative first floor, and the only person on the negative first floor worthy of these two people going there in person is Keating!
Keating is in danger!
The prisoners on the second floor had already taken advantage, and Verak had no intention of staying behind to completely establish the victory. He flew down all the way and bumped into Dawn who was about to go up.
"You——" Verak said with concern when he saw Dawn using prison uniform to bandage the wound on his arm.
"It's okay." Dawn held a gun in one hand and looked toward the prison exit.
They controlled three of the seven exit doors of the prison. Starting from the fourth door, the prison guards blocked the passage in time, making them trapped and unable to get out.
The backbone of the prisoners also immediately locked the door closest to the exit that they controlled, and in turn blocked the prison guards outside.
"How's it going up there?" Dawn asked.
"It's basically okay, but I didn't see Lecter and Adel. They are probably on the first floor!" Verak told Dawn his guess, "I guess they are heading towards Keating.
Got it!"
Dawn immediately realized the seriousness of the problem and rushed towards the first floor with a gun on his shoulder: "Let's go!"
Verak followed closely behind and led a group of people down to the negative level.
"Bang!"
When Verak and Dawn rushed down to cell 208, a bullet in the distance passed by their cheeks.
"Hide!" Dawn roared, raised the gun with one hand, and fired a shot in the direction of the interrogation room.
"Not in 208! In the interrogation room!" Verak leaned against the wall and saw from a distance more than a dozen prison guards standing in the interrogation room at the end of the corridor. The tallest among them was the warden Adel.
"Press over bit by bit!" Dawn led the gun-wielding prisoners to suppress the prison guards led by Adel with firepower.
Verak didn't know where Keating was, so he shouted anxiously: "Don't hurt Keating!"
"Be careful when shooting!" Dawn rushed to the front, reminding the prisoners not to accidentally injure Keating.
A hundred meters away, in front of the door of the interrogation room, more than a dozen prison guards were waiting. They didn't know why so many prisoners with guns poured out, but this situation already showed one thing - the prisoners broke out in the largest riot in history!
"Lecter!" Adel held a gun in one hand and patted the iron door of the interrogation room with the other. "The prisoners have escaped. If you don't want to die under random gunfire, open the door!"
Still no response from inside.
"Warden, what should I do?" A prison guard was so trembling that he couldn't hold his gun.
He had never seen this battle before. Fifty or sixty prisoners with guns were pushing towards them in an overwhelming manner. If they could get fifty or sixty guns, what would it look like! Could it be that nearly three hundred prison guards didn't
Is it done?!
Adel also felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar. He kept patting the door of the interrogation room: "Occupy a favorable position and hold the prisoner back!"
"Yes!" The prison guards bravely exchanged fire with the prisoners.
"Adel!" When the situation reached a stalemate, Verak came forward and called Adel's name, and asked the prisoners to temporarily stop shooting.
"Cease fire." Adel heard the cry and also ordered the prison guards to stop, and then looked at Verak who was slowly approaching them in the corridor.
"Stop resisting! We have taken control of the entire prison!" Verak tried to persuade him to surrender, which would not only reduce casualties but also ensure Keating's safety. "As long as you put down your weapons and come over with your hands raised, I can let you go."
A way out!"
Adel looked at Verak, realized something after quick thinking, and said in a deep voice: "You and Keating are in the same group?!"
"That's right! Everything is within our plan! Put down your weapons quickly! This is good for you and me!" Verak was eager to save people.
"Lecter! Come out!" Adel slammed the door of the interrogation room hard, but Lecter still ignored him. He looked livid and stared at Verak, "You madman..."
"Warden..." A prison guard expressed his intention to surrender.
"You are going to kill us..." Adel turned to look at the closed door of the interrogation room and punched the door.
Even he didn't take Verak too seriously, and recently spent almost all his energy on the internal struggle with Lecter. Who would have thought that their internal fighting was all part of Verak's prison escape plan.
Faced with the careful plan laid out by him and all the prisoners, Adel had to face the facts.
With unexpected morale and incredible cooperation, the prisoners defeated the prison guards and completed control of Damans, a prison that was dubbed as solid as diamonds.
Soon, Adel was the first to put down his weapon and led the prison guards towards the prisoners with their hands raised. After ensuring that there were no traps, Daun led people and randomly locked him and the prison guards into a nearby cell.
"Where's Lecter?!" Verak felt bad when he saw that only Adel was there, without Lecter or Keating.
Adel stood in front of the cell door, frowning: "He is interrogating Keating inside, and no one is allowed to open——"
Before Adel could finish speaking, Verak ran towards the interrogation room.
Just hearing the words 'Interrogate Keating', Verak didn't dare to think about it anymore. If that lunatic Lecter really used torture, how could Keating be able to withstand it based on his physical condition!
"Lecter! Open the door!" He rushed to the interrogation room door, pressed against the door and shouted inside, "If you dare to lay a finger on Keating, I will make you pay a hundred times or ten thousand times the price!"
Dawn and others gathered around the door of the interrogation room: "The keys are all in Lecter's hands. If he doesn't open it, we can only find a way to force the door open!"
"Lecter! Open the door! The entire prison is now under our control! Don't even think about dealing with us!" Verak continued to roar, "Teacher! Can you hear me?!"
Verak's eyes were bloodshot.
Keating has unknowingly become a very important person in his life. He is not only a friend, but also a teacher and a father.
They had dreamed about what to do after leaving prison, and it was because of Keating that Verak had the courage to face the Equality Society again.
"Teacher! Can you hear me?!" Verak didn't want to lose another important person.
He banged on the door of the interrogation room harder and harder, but his heart became heavier and heavier.
Everyone knows that the possibility of Keating surviving Lecter's torture is extremely slim.
"Bang!"
Suddenly, there was the sound of pulling out the lock pin from the interrogation room door, and then, the door was pulled open from the inside.
Verak looked at the person who opened the door and froze in place with his mouth wide open.
I saw a lot of blood on Keating's body. He opened the door with a tired look and stood in front of Verak, panting and showing a familiar smile!
Behind him, Lecter had an expression of disbelief on his face, sitting on the interrogation chair, his neck being wiped, and blood flowing down his body to form a pool of blood.
"You..." Verak lowered his head and saw Keating's legs actually standing up, and his mind went blank.
"Sorry, kid." Keating put an arm on Verak's shoulder to support his weak body, "This is my last secret."
