I'm building Gundams in America

The King County Correctional Center's activity area is a standard American prison activity area.

A large open space connected to the main prison was surrounded by tall barbed wire.

There is a basketball court, a running track, and some simple fitness equipment in the middle.

Meanwhile, around the activity area are small spaces separated by wire, like cages.

These places are generally where dangerous or aggressive criminals are allowed to roam alone.

In those high-security prisons, such solitary confinement areas are frequently used.

However, in minor offender prisons like King County Correctional Center, most prisoners are relatively well-behaved.

Because if they just endure it, they will be released, so these small cages are usually empty.

Wayne sat on a bench in the main court, which was surrounded by barbed wire, looking at the basketball court in front of him, looking very relaxed.

On the basketball court, a group of prisoners are playing basketball and seem to be having a great time.

After all, for someone living a monotonous prison life, this is probably the happiest time.

It even made them forget that they were in prison, as if they were ordinary free people.

Hugo, Marcus, Raphael, Lyon, and other gang leaders from the prison were sitting around Wayne.

If the original prison ward was divided into three factions—Black, White, and Latino—Wayne is now the one who truly holds power.

They felt a sense of security simply by sitting next to Wayne.

He has been conquered by Wayne both physically and mentally.

Looking at everything before him, Hugo was also secretly shocked.

Free time is usually the most tense time, since the activity area is only so big, and each gang wants to control the largest area. Especially when playing basketball, it is often when the most conflicts break out.

Even the previous group fights were caused by playing basketball.

Even Victor Hugo himself was once locked up for several days.

On the courts now, Black, White, and Latino players are all playing together, showing affection for each other like brothers.

This was certainly not because the prisoners had changed their ways, but mainly because they were afraid Mr. Wayne would break their arms and legs.

Everyone knew the other person wasn't joking.

That was a real interruption.

"Ah..."

A scream rang out as a white gang member collided violently with an opponent while scrambling for the ball, falling to the ground and instantly spraining his ankle. The heavily tattooed Latino who had knocked him down immediately pulled him to his feet, then looked at Wayne with a trembling expression, like a child who had done something wrong.

Wayne greeted him with a friendly smile:

"Come."

The group immediately lifted the injured prisoner up and helped him to Wayne.

A hint of predatory excitement flashed in Wayne's eyes. He twisted the prisoner's ankle and then immediately released the power of the [Basic Witch Doctor (Master)], allowing the gentle energy to surge within the prisoner's body and quickly healing the prisoner's injuries to almost complete.

"Thank God, thank you, Mr. Wayne, I feel much better... Just as they said, you are a true saint!" the wounded prisoner said gratefully.

He had already learned the name of Saint Wayne from Gabriel, who shared a cell with Wayne.

After Wayne single-handedly took on the entire prison block of gangsters, Gabriel was one of the most excited people, using his spare time to tirelessly promote Wayne's reputation as a "saint".

The crowd now looked at Wayne with even greater reverence and hope.

Many of them had personally experienced Wayne's miraculous power, and upon learning that this saint could also exorcise evil and cure diseases, many had other ideas.

Feeling the intense gazes of the crowd, Wayne glanced around and calmly said:

"If anyone suffering from illness comes forward, I will exorcise evil spirits and bestow blessings upon them."

We must not waste the mental energy we have left today.

Upon hearing this, everyone's faces lit up with joy. A thin, Latino prisoner immediately stepped forward and cautiously raised his hand, saying:

"Sir, I... I've had a persistent stomachache, and no matter how much I eat, I can't gain weight..."

Wayne nodded, gesturing for him to come forward.

The prisoner had intricate and ferocious tattoos on his chest, extending all the way to his neck; he looked like a ruthless character.

But in front of Wayne, he was like a child afraid of making a mistake.

Wayne placed his hand on the man's forehead and activated the power of [Basic Witch Doctor]. He immediately felt a tangled mess in the man's abdomen, which was moving around erratically.

This was the first time Wayne had encountered this disease.

The basic witch doctor activated his energy, which enveloped the tangled mess in the other person's abdomen and began to release energy.

The next instant, in Wayne's perception, those tangled messes began to writhe wildly, crawling up his esophagus! The man let out a groan, then bent over and spat out a glob of vomit.

Everyone present couldn't help but gasp in surprise.

Among the vomit, there was a dense mass of thin, worm-like creatures writhing and struggling!

Wayne nodded slightly, finally understanding what it was.

寄生虫。

According to the profile of the man in front of him on the panel, he had traveled through the rainforest of South America a few years ago and struggled all the way to reach the United States. He then rented a child and obtained legal status through various underhanded tactics employed by the Republican Party in previous years.

Who knows what he drank or ate in the rainforest? Parasites are all too common.

However, this scene caused an uproar among the surrounding prisoners, most of whom had only completed primary school.

"An evil spirit! It really is an evil spirit!"

"Bro, Mr. Wayne really succeeded in exorcising the evil spirit for you!"

"Fuck! What the hell did you do? Why is there an evil spirit inside you?!"

"Damn it, get down on your knees, kneel down and pray to Mr. Wayne! He drove the evil spirits of hell out of you, he saved your life!"

"Hey, Doctor Who? I finally know who Mr. Wayne looks like—it's Constantine, Hellblazer!"

To these prisoners, Wayne had merely touched the boy's forehead, and the boy had vomited up a pool of wriggling red worms. What else could this be but an evil spirit?

As for Ascaris lumbricoides (roundworms) and Schistosoma spp (blood flukes), what the hell are those? I recognize each letter individually, but together they sound like an alien language.

It's definitely an evil spirit!

Even Raphael, the leader of the Latin American gang, showed shock and excitement, as if he had made up his mind.

Amidst the gasps and shouts of the crowd, the Latino prisoner knelt down before Wayne on the spot.

Tears streaming down his face, he crawled forward on his knees, kissed Wayne's hand, and said:

"Mr. Wayne, thank you for the exorcism. If it weren't for you, I don't know how much longer I would have been tormented by evil spirits... Please allow me to call you Godfather."

Hugo, standing nearby, glared and burst into a tirade:

"Hey, you son of a bitch, Cholo, this is my godfather! If you need a father, you'd better fucking find one yourself!" Cholo originally referred to a mixed-race group in Hispanic America, but in the United States it has evolved into a derogatory term for Mexican gang members, similar to "nigger."

The Latino prisoner kissing Wayne's hand was only being respectful to Wayne; he would never tolerate the Blood Gang members.

The man was still kneeling before Wayne when he looked up at Hugo and cursed:

"You fucking walking chimpanzee, you fucking nigger, the Godfather is a highly respected and revered boss in gang culture! You should go back to elementary school!"

The cursing immediately caused members of both gangs to stand up and glare at each other angrily.

If Wayne hadn't been there, the two sides would have already started fighting.

Wayne said calmly:

"Next."

The Latin American prisoner, who had just vomited up the parasite, immediately said respectfully:

"Thank you, Godfather Wayne..."

He then glared at Hugo defiantly before reluctantly leaving.

Wayne then continued to "exorcise and bless" prisoners who needed treatment.

It has to be said that anyone who can join a gang in prison must be in excellent physical condition.

Out of dozens of people, only 6 actually needed medical treatment.

By the time the exorcism of the sixth person was completed, it was lunchtime.

By this time, Wayne had become the most respected godfather in this prison area, an undisputed figure.

Even the prison guards were surprised to find that the prisoners, who used to fight every time they ate, were much calmer.

In the afternoon, the prisoners all went to work, and Wayne himself enjoyed a rare moment of peace and quiet.

Ironically, since his rebirth in this body, it's only while he's in prison that he's truly enjoying peace and quiet. Evening arrived quickly. After dinner and reading some newspaper articles about America's preparations to strike Venezuela, Wayne prepared to rest. Just then, a piercing alarm suddenly blared, followed by shouts from prison guards:

"Prison break! Someone's escaped! Damn it, catch him!"

A prisoner is trying to escape from the dark cell; helping him will bring you rewards.
