Chapter 555 [Chapter of the Fatal Game] Five: On the verge of losing control

"Don't fucking talk nonsense!"

Frank was trembling with fear and almost lost control of his body. He subconsciously covered Chen Yan's mouth with his rubber-gloved hands.

Chen Yan looked at the stains on the rubber cleaning gloves, his hair stood on end, and he jumped back in shock.

The unusual behavior of the two people immediately attracted the attention of the prison guards not far away.

"What are you two doing?"

The prison guard spoke in a gloomy tone, but did not take any further action, because Frank had spent nearly ten years proving his "absolute obedience", while Chen Yan's situation was even more special. The prison guard did not want to interfere too much with him.

Because I don't want to cause trouble for myself.

"It's okay, sir!"

The prison guard looked at the careful apology smile on Frank's face, turned around and left without looking into it further.

Frank turned his head, his expression turned ferocious.

"Who the hell told you..."

His voice is as low as a mosquito.

"You can guess for yourself, Frank. It's not important. What's important is that you have to take me to see it now."

Chen Yan looked calmly into Frank's cannibalistic eyes.

There was not much dialogue between the two, nor any explanation of their motives, nor any unnecessary threats.

After a moment, Frank lowered his head.

He seemed to have figured out something and made a decision.

"I'll tell you when the time comes."

The two started cleaning for the day.

Frank told Chen Yan as usual that the task of cleaning the bathroom needs to be completed three times a day, once in the morning before prison staff go to work, once after lunch break, and once in the evening after get off work.

Their cleaning scope is all bathrooms from the first floor to the sixth floor of the prison, and Frank's cleaning order is also from the first floor to the sixth floor, which has not changed for so many years.

“The office area from the first to the third floor belongs to the prison guards. These three floors are mainly used for [the solitary room for prisoners who have made mistakes], [the reception room for visiting prisoners], and [the isolation room for isolating sick prisoners]

, and [Prison Guard's Lounge], [Prison Guard's Recreation Room], [Prison Guard's Dating Room], etc.

Within the scope of these three floors, outside the office area where prison guards operate, is the [cell area] where ordinary prisoners are located."

During the cleaning process, Frank began to say these words to Chen Yan inexplicably.

He did not ask Chen Yan to clean the toilet, but did the dirtiest work on his own as usual, only asking Chen Yan to clean the sink and other places.

His voice was very low, and he always looked left and right when speaking, speaking only when he was sure there were no prison guards around.

"Above the fourth floor is the activity area for prison civilian staff. You must be extra careful when working in the area above the fourth floor. You are not allowed to stay outside some offices. If you hear something you shouldn't hear, you will disappear directly."

Frank said nonchalantly.

"There was a kid about the same age as you, and he was also a lucky guy. I warned him, but like you, he didn't take it seriously. He parked outside the office on the west side of the fifth floor for a while, and was arrested by the prison guards that night.

I was called away and never came back."

Frank glanced at Chen Yan, who was cleaning the sink with an expressionless face, and then turned his attention back to the toilet. The toilet was obviously very dirty, but he didn't seem to care at all.

"If you stay in this hellish place for a long time, you will know that this prison is not actually used to hold prisoners. Some prisoners are not actually prisoners, but they just need to be locked up here for a period of time."

He continued to speak incomprehensible words.

"People like me are real criminals. If I commit a crime, I will be locked up here to atone for what I have committed."

Chen Yan said:

"Frank, I think you're okay."

Frank paused in his work and muttered in a low voice:

"oh oh……"

When he was cleaning the westernmost bathroom on the first floor, Frank suddenly signaled Chen Yan to go inside.

Chen Yan tensed up and did not go in directly, but looked into Frank's green eyes.

Frank looked at each other for a few seconds, looked outside irritably, and then entered the bathroom.

Chen Yan followed closely behind.

In the innermost stall of the bathroom, Frank moved the toilet away, revealing a hole that could only accommodate one person.

Chen Yan felt the strange-smelling wind blowing under the hollow, and his face became very ugly.

Frank supported the ground with both hands, inserted his feet into it, and tentatively moved downward. After a while, he had entered the hollow and signaled Chen Yan to go down.

"What are you thinking about? Don't you want to see the passage? This is the passage! Hurry up! We only have ten minutes! The prison guards will patrol in fifteen minutes, so we must hurry up!"

Chen Yan entered the void in silence. It seemed that due to the impact of losing control on his body, his hands and feet were much more sensitive than Frank. With a slight jump, he was already standing in front of Frank.

In the dim vision, Chen Yan saw that Frank's face looked even more grim.

"Let's go... let's go."

The two of them lowered their bodies and headed into the depths of darkness.

This is a completely earthen passage, narrow and cramped. I don’t know what tools Frank used to dig it.

After walking a few meters, the passage gradually became wider, the smell became lighter, and the water vapor became stronger.

"Two days ago, I dug up something bad..."

Taking another two steps forward, Chen Yan's rubber shoes actually stepped on the water.

"I dug a piece of groundwater... It seems that the designer of the prison has incorporated it into the sewage system. Part of the prison's sewage is discharged into this place through pipes, so it is relatively dirty."

Groundwater... Could this be connected to the underground watershed of Yanan City?

Frank whispered:

"But this place cannot be used for escape."

"I once went a little deeper and found that the water was getting deeper and deeper. After about twenty meters, I couldn't stand at all."

"If we want to get out this way, we need a small boat...at least a raft."

"and……"

Frank hesitated to speak.

Chen Yan looked at the swaying shadows that seemed to exist in the darkness and understood Frank's worries.

"Moreover, there seems to be something alive in this sewage."

There was fear in his voice.

"I don't know what it is, so even if there is a raft, I can't move forward rashly."

In the dim vision, Frank turned left.

Chen Yan followed, and after a few steps, he came to an earthen wall.

In the dim vision, he saw the shovel stuck in the earth wall.

"This road leads to a certain sewage pipe."

Frank said quickly:

"There is about five meters of distance, followed by masonry poured with concrete. If we can break through this layer of masonry, we will see a layer of plastic board - that is the outer wall of the sewage pipe. The thickness is unknown. I estimate

Not thin.”

"If this road can be opened, we can enter the sewage pipe and go to a river outside the prison through the sewage pipe."

"Also... the end of the sewage pipe, the outlet above the river, is sealed by a steel mesh. I don't know how to open the steel mesh for the time being."

How did Frank know these things?

"Time is running out, let's go back."

The two returned to the bathroom on the west side of the first floor of the prison, and Frank moved the toilet back to its original position.

While continuing to clean the bathroom, the prison guard on patrol had arrived. Frank greeted the prison guard flatteringly, but failed to get any attention from him.

After the prison guard left, Frank whispered to Chen Yan:

"No one usually comes to the bathroom at the west end of the first floor because the prison guards are very superstitious. They think the bathroom at the end of the first floor is the most sinister and will be haunted."

"But this ghost place is already very gloomy, isn't it? Even the sun doesn't shine in at eight o'clock in the morning. Who wouldn't be afraid of this situation?"

Frank looked at Chen Yan with uneasy eyes, which seemed to be pleading.

"We can leave together...so there is no need for you to tell this matter...you also came in for murder, right? You will be sentenced to many years, and you won't be able to survive that time! You don't know that you are here day after day.

How painful the day is!"

Chen Yan just nodded.
