Chapter 8: Assassinate Me
There are a few fewer prisoners. Is it strange? Outsiders don't know it, but our gang of people who escaped from prison know it very well.
I didn't run away, I held Mad Dog tightly and kept him by my side to protect me.
The mad dog hesitated for a moment, and then he chose to protect me with all his might.
The melee lasted for more than half an hour until a large number of police officers arrived to suppress the situation.
This alarmed the deputy warden, who stood on a high place and asked: "Who started the trouble?"
I timidly raised my hand and said, "That person is stealing my food."
The deputy warden pointed at me and said, "Come here." Then he pointed at the guy I identified and came to his side.
At this time, I committed a major taboo in prison. All the Yue gang wanted to eat me alive.
The deputy warden pointed his baton at me and said, "What on earth is going on? Tell me."
I had to admire my eloquence. With the instructions of the deputy warden, I started with how to get the food. I praised how delicious the food was, and wanted to discuss it with the designated, muscular friend. I kept talking eloquently about why dinner was so delicious, including some jokes, for more than half an hour, and vividly described a huge melee among prisoners as a Christmas carnival.
During this time, I also scanned the expressions of the prisoners and the police.
I must have exaggerated my description. The deputy warden's facial muscles twitched twice and finally stopped my speech: "Have you had enough?"
I asked timidly, "I'm not finished yet."
I never expected that the deputy warden was as bad-tempered as the warden. He rewarded me with a baton and shouted to all the prisoners: "Everyone line up and go back to the cells."
Prisoners line up in an orderly manner and return to their cells under police supervision.
The jailbreak was finally and inevitably discovered. Because there are fewer people in the cell.
There were ten people in the cell I was in. Except for me, Mad Dog, and Lao Liu, the other seven people were missing.
The prison alarm sounded harshly, and at this time, nearly an hour and a half had passed since the melee in the cafeteria.
The next step was a large-scale investigation, and I, Mad Dog, and Lao Liu were strictly controlled.
However, after repeated searches, no one knew when or where the prisoner escaped.
The warden also came angrily.
Police dogs also entered the jail.
Fortunately, the dark hole through which he escaped was never discovered. The mad dog seemed to be sulking a little unhappy, and I wasn't too happy either.
Finally, the mad dog couldn't help it anymore. Seeing no one around, he started complaining to me: "Why are you holding me back and not letting me go?"
"I don't want you to die," I said.
"Fart. I have to admire your idea. How much time has passed now? If I had run away just now, I should have successfully escaped from prison by now."
"If you had left just now and disappeared during a melee, the Chinese Gang would have lost its backbone, and the jailbreak would have been exposed prematurely." I explained.
"Hasn't it been discovered yet? There will be opportunities in the future. However, I believe that the secret of this hole may not be kept." I analyzed.
"I will kill you now." Mad Dog said angrily.
"It's best if you don't take action at this time, otherwise you will be in big trouble. Just trust me for once. It all depends on the outcome tomorrow." I advised.
The mad dog snorted, thinking that if he fell into your trap, he would kill you sooner or later.
It's late at night and it's destined to be a sleepless night, especially for me.
I looked and saw that both Mad Dog and Lao Liu were fast asleep. I carefully groped in my arms, took out a small piece of paper and unfolded it.
It was very dark in the cell and I could not see clearly. I quietly approached the window of the cell door.
Suddenly, I felt the chill behind me. Mad Dog stood behind me, and he motioned for me to hand over the note in my hand.
Can I not pay it? But I haven’t seen the content yet, should I hand it over?
While I was hesitating, Mad Dog snatched it away. Under the dim light of the corridor, the note read, "Prevent assassination."
Mad Dog asked: "Who are you?"
"I am me, who else could it be?" I replied.
"Where did this note come from?" Mad Dog asked.
"Can you give me back what you got from tonight's meal?" I said.
Mad Dog handed the note back to me and said, "Someone is trying to kill you."
I said, "Isn't that why I went to jail?" But I was thinking about other things, why? Who on earth would want me to die like this? How can I prevent this? If you die without even knowing who your enemy is, shouldn't you be able to close your eyes?
Mad Dog said: "Your enemy wants you to die so much. What kind of immoral thing have you done?"
"I don't know either. I am a serious businessman and a good citizen." I said innocently.
"If you don't tell the truth, just wait for death. I can't help you." Mad Dog said.
"Can you help me, how?" I asked quickly.
Mad Dog ignored me, and I quickly added: "My name is Xiao Xiaohua. I am the local general agent of Huaxia Qianjia Company. I am mainly engaged in the clothing business. I will tell you all my situation."
"It doesn't make sense. Could it be your business rival?" Mad Dog said.
"I have always been a businessman and compete legally." I emphasized my innocence.
"Let me check it for you. It can't be as simple as you said." Mad Dog said.
"Thank you, brother." I was very excited.
"Thank you first." Mad Dog said. Our words woke up Lao Liu. He came over and said, "Here, any help must be paid."
"I have this, I have this." I said excitedly, as long as it can save my life, money is an extraneous thing.
Lao Liu asked: "How much money do you have?"
Because I only have my personal account unfrozen now, but in order to reduce my guilt, I have already used more than half of it. Besides, it’s impossible for me to use the company’s public funds. This is the bottom line of my professional ethics. After thinking about it, I said, “Maybe another hundred thousand.”
Lao Liu asked, "Is it U.S. dollars?" I nodded quickly.
Lao Liu said: "To find out the information, the starting price is ten thousand, and the money you have left is enough to keep you alive for a few months. This does not include my commission."
I was caught in a trap. I had to stay in prison for ten years. The money I had now could only keep me alive for a few months. What would I do with the rest of my life? I collapsed on the ground.
As for what Lao Liu said and what account he transferred the funds to, I didn't pay attention at all and just stayed there.
