Chapter 127 Small Island (4K)

It's so weird, the situation we have learned so far cannot perfectly explain the abnormalities in the prison, and Shen Fei still needs to conduct more investigations.

However, because of the role he played, he belonged to this prison, so many things cannot be directly asked by other people, but can only be understood through the few words of the prisoner's conversation.

It would be best if a new prisoner could come in soon and learn about the prison with his eyes and ears.

On the first day, Shen Fei didn't take any action hastily, but first learned about the work and rest schedule in the prison.

When the prisoners are sober, they actually participate in labor most of the time and produce some handicraft products, but the remuneration is extremely low, which is completely inconsistent with the high labor costs of the outside world.

But in the morning and in the afternoon, there was a time to let the wind go. During the time to let the wind go, Shen Fei consciously wandered around the edge of the barbed wire fence.

The barbed wire fence was less than four meters high, about three meters seven, if no one was guarding it, it would not be able to trap Shen Fei at all.

However, he observed that the number of prison guards in this prison far exceeds that of ordinary prisons, and the ratio of prisoners to prison guards is even less than three to one.

In addition, sentry posts were set up at the four corners of the prison. The sentry posts were surrounded by barbed wire. When they were locked from the inside, it was difficult for ordinary people to break into them. Moreover, Shen Fei found that the sentry posts were equipped with searchlights and heavy firepower.

In addition, there is another bad news, Shen Fei can see both sides of the outside world through the barbed wire, and can observe that the ocean is nearby, if there is no accident, this place should be a small island.

If it is really a small island, the situation is not good.

According to Shen Fei's understanding, most of the prisons made of small islands in history have been abandoned.

Because the cost is too high, the food, drink and daily necessities of the prisoners and prison guards on the island need to be transported by cargo ship. The cost is not low, and the island usually needs to generate electricity separately.

If it is just to trap the prisoners, it will consume a huge amount of manpower and material resources, which is not worth the loss, so not much can be kept.

But on the other hand, if a separate small island is used as a prison regardless of the cost, the difficulty of prison escape will be directly raised to the ceiling, because just escaping from the prison is not the end, you must cross the strait to reach the land before you can see the sun again .

From the few words of the prisoners, Shen Fei learned that sometimes the prison guards would order some prisoners to carry the goods during work or relaxation time.

The so-called goods should be the daily necessities brought by the cargo ship.

So the first thing Shen Fei thought of was whether he could participate in the cargo handling, and then take the opportunity to sneak into the cargo ship.

However, this plan was quickly rejected by him.

He was the only Asian in the prison. Even if he could enter the cargo-carrying queue, he would be paid special attention by the prison guards. When the cargo was loaded and unloaded, he would find that Fei Shen had disappeared without deliberately counting the number of people.

As long as he realizes that he may escape from prison by a cargo ship, under the cover of a large number of manpower, Shen Fei will have nowhere to hide.

It is also impossible for him to kill all the prison guards. His current strength is 10 points, and his muscles can indeed block some gun bullets, but the heavy firepower on the sentry post is not so easy to deal with.

Even if Shen Fei killed them all, it would be almost impossible for him to pilot a large ship alone.

And once a conflict arises, the prison guards in the prison are likely to call for reinforcements. When the armed ships dock, let alone Shen Fei cannot use the system, even if he can, he will probably be buried here. Never underestimate the power of the state machine .

In other words, any jailbreak plan that may involve a frontal conflict should be avoided as much as possible.

During dinner time, Shen Fei noticed that some of the cafeteria staff were wearing prison uniforms. He found the white man who was in the daytime and asked the reason for this.

The man who was good at farting rainbows during the day was named John.

John told Shen Fei happily: "You know, even though the food provided in the cafeteria is not bad, it is still incomparable with those served in the back kitchen, and the prisoners who behaved well are lucky enough to be able to help in the back kitchen. .”

Shen Fei had an idea: "When you were helping in the back kitchen, didn't you think of hiding and not returning to the cell, and then escaped while it was dark?"

John hurriedly said: "Oh no man, to be honest, life in prison is really hard, but I don't want to die so soon, my sentence is not long enough to die here."

"And I tried my best to transfer to this prison. I came to enjoy a better cell, not to seek death."

Shen Fei pretended to tease: "Try it, what if you escape?"

John didn't take it seriously at all: "Anyone who tries to escape in this prison, the best result is to be caught and put in a small dark room, and the sentence will be extended."

"But even so, I think it's better than being shot and killed by a shark, man, resistance is valuable, but it's better to put it away here."

Shen Fei pretended to be chatting and said: "I read in a certain magazine that it is said that sharks think that the quality of human meat is not tasty."

John shrugged: "They may not like to eat human beings, but for fresh food, they may want to have a bite. To be honest, even if each shark only tastes one bite, I am not enough for them."

"Great white sharks are okay, they always act alone, but flathead hana sharks are social sharks, even Mitchell, the fattest prisoner, is not enough to be a snack."

Shen Fei glanced at him in surprise, this guy really knows a lot about this prison.

John seemed to have realized something, looked around, and said in a low voice: "Dude, you don't want to escape from prison, do you, but don't do stupid things."

"To be honest, although you can fight well, it is not an easy task to swim 2.5 kilometers to reach the coast of San Francisco."

"Especially the seawater temperature here, even in June, is only 10°C. Within 10 minutes after entering the water, your muscles will start to convulse, followed by shock caused by hypothermia. Things that can be overcome."

Shen Fei shrugged: "You think too much, how can you escape from prison, I don't want to die either."

18:30 in the evening.

The prisoners who had dinner started their daily music time, and Shen Fei was also allowed to choose a musical instrument.

He can choose from a series of musical instruments such as large, medium and small drums, guitars, drums, trumpets, and medium trumpets.

Shen Fei now understands that what John said that he deliberately transferred to this prison may not be some kind of falsehood, which makes the office workers who call 996 every day and use their mobile phones during meals a luxury.

Shen Fei is really not proficient in musical instruments. After all, there is a saying: music theory is fire, which lights up the lamp of harmony; ; Polyphony is a pit, burying all music students.

After thinking about it, he picked up a guitar casually, it was fine if he didn't know how to play, he strummed the strings casually, and spent most of the time by roaring, it didn't matter if he was out of tune, he could declare himself a folk singer.

For the next hour, Shen Fei understood what noise hell was, and was also thankful that at least he had a guitar so that he could use noise to fight against noise.

Shen Fei heard before that during the music time at night, the prison guards hardly come back to patrol, now he understands the reason.

These prisoners are not using musical instruments at all, they are purely venting their emotions, that is, the drum set is too big to move into the cell, otherwise it is probably the most popular musical instrument.

After this long hour, he picked out a history-related book and a relatively new magazine from the library.

The history recorded by the former is similar to the United States in the real world. The time-sensitive readings of the latter can reflect the approximate time of the current time and space, and can basically be locked in the United States around 1940.

Taking advantage of the prison guard just passing by, he lay at the end of the bed and studied the room, the most likely place to be regarded as a breakthrough, the air vent.

Below the sink, a rectangular hole was dug out of the green wall. A steel plate with holes was embedded in the hole. The height was less than 20 cm and the width was less than 30 cm, which was not enough for Shen Fei's body to pass through.

Behind the air vent, there seems to be a narrow corridor. Shen Fei lay down and looked in through the finger-thick hole. There are also some pipes intertwined in it, just like the maintenance passage in a modern building. Shen Fei tentatively called it by the same name. .

The maintenance channel generally leads to an exit or can go up to the roof.

Shen Fei tugged at the steel plate with his hands, feeling that with his strength, it should be easy to remove, but he didn't act rashly.

The hardness of this wall cannot be dug through by hand, it must be assisted by metal tools. After thinking about it in his heart, he already has a measure.

Around nine o'clock, the lights and electricity were turned off in the cell area. To be honest, except for the vacuum cleaner, there were basically no electrical appliances that could enter the cell, so whether the power was cut off had little effect on the prisoners.

Silent all night.

On the second day, the life of the first day was basically repeated. The difference was that during dinner, Shen Fei hid a spoon on his body while others were not paying attention, and brought it back to the cell.

The spoon at this time is different from the special short plastic spoon of the later generations. Although this spoon is shorter than the household spoon, it is made of metal.

Shen Fei was going to take advantage of the instrument time to try to dig the wall with an iron spoon, expand the vent, and escape after making sufficient preparations.

He was going to use the noise the prisoners wantedlessly made to cover up the movement of him digging out the wall.

However, a new prisoner arrives, disrupting his plans.

The prison guard knocked on the fence with an iron rod, and all the prisoners gathered at the door of the cell, wailing and yelling, making all kinds of strange howls like howling ghosts and howling wolves. Shen Fei knew that this was a repertoire in the prison.

The cells of this prison are divided into left and right sides, and each side has three rows of cells: upper, middle, and lower. The two sides add up to a total of 600 cells, which means that the upper limit of this prison is to hold 600 prisoners.

The corridor in the middle is called "Broadway Avenue" by the prisoners.

Every time a new prisoner enters the prison, the prison guards will strip off all the clothes of the newcomer, and then let him pass through this corridor naked.

Hence the name.

Generally, when a new prisoner enters the prison, there will be a prison bully explaining the rules to him. The difference is that usually the prison rules are taught in the cell, but this prison is a single cell, so the part of telling the rules is during the release. conduct.

The newcomer who came in recently was Shen Fei a month ago. It is said that the prison bully who told him the rules at that time could not get out of bed for three days after being beaten, so he was a little worried. A lot of good shows are missing.

It's not that Shen Fei likes to watch rookies being bullied, it's mainly because he wants to use this process to gather information.

After thinking about it, Shen Fei decided not to take any action and hid the spoon.

He spent the first two days in prison peacefully.

On the morning of the third day, during the air break, Shen Fei deliberately stayed away, fearing that it would affect the performance of the former prison tyrant, why the former prison tyrant, because the new prison tyrant was Shen Fei.

This newcomer was obviously someone who had been in other prisons. Facing the embarrassment of the prison bully, he didn't take much resistance, and honestly accepted the power of this blow.

Seeing his performance, Shen Fei felt more relieved. The first thing an experienced prisoner did when he came to the prison was of course to inquire about the situation inside and outside the prison.

And in this area where the wind is released, as long as Shen Fei is willing, no movement can escape his ears.

After the newcomer visits the pier, as long as there are some benefits of "filial piety" wisely, old people will naturally come to explain it to him.

Finally, on the third day after entering the prison, Shen Fei finally had a systematic understanding of this place.

This prison was built on a small island in San Francisco, California, about 2.5 kilometers from the land. It is said that it used to be a military base, but it was converted into a prison due to an accident.

At the beginning, the number of prison guards was even more than that of prisoners. Later, as the number of personnel changed, the number of both sides gradually approached 1:3, which was indeed higher than that of ordinary prisons.

Those who can be imprisoned on this island are all serious criminals, and the famous godfather of the mafia: Al Capone, is imprisoned here.

Or a criminal who is very good at escaping from prison, because the difficulty level of escaping from prison here was once rated as the highest impossible level.

All prison guards and guards have the right to shoot when prisoners escape from prison. On the ceiling of the cafeteria, there are many tear gas that can be controlled from a distance. Once a riot occurs, the prison guards can immediately suppress it.

The water near the small island is cold, sharks gather, and there are patrol boats that can be used as maneuvers.

From the time they entered this prison to the present, there have been quite a few people who have tried to escape from the prison, but except for a few lucky ones who knelt and surrendered to save their lives when they were discovered, others were either shot to death or fell into the sea to feed the sharks.

And if he behaves better in prison, he can read books, read newspapers, draw pictures, etc. Shen Fei has already known these through their previous communication, and the follow-up information has little effect on him.

If Shen Fei's plan is strict enough, even using the assassination breakthrough, it is not difficult to complete the task.

Then looking back at the one-month mission time limit given by the system, Shen Fei seemed to understand the deep meaning in it.
