Chapter 397 - Xiong Des Ending (III) (1/2)

Then he heard the officer in front of him muttered, ”A criminal with the sentence of life imprisonment wants to have some fresh air? As if we will allow them.” Then the officer turned to him, ”Even you, criminals, used an excuse like seeing a doctor to get a pass on us, we will not allow you to step outside of here. Of course, except for your monthly jail visits.”

Xiong De's hearts skipped a beat. Why telling it to himself? He would not stay here anyway. This officer should know that, right?

However, he did not ask as he was afraid of something.

He just wished that they could get out of this stinky hallway.

They finally arrived at the farthest room. The officer stopped and looked at him.

”This will be your room from now on.”

”...”

Xiong De looked at the door that was the same as every other door he passed by in this section.

Surely, he did not mean that, right?

The officer fished out his keys and opened the cell. As soon as the door opened, a strong foul stench assaulted his nose.

The dark room was barely the height of a person, two meters long, and one and a half meters wide. This was a tiny room with a very thin and dirty mattress full of holes on the floor. There was a toilet hole on the ground that was muddy with something disgusting inside in one corner. There was no washroom or faucet. No pillow, no quilts. There was no window. Only this door and the small vent where food was to be pushed in was the source of ventilation.

Xiong De could never, ever possibly live in this place.

”T-this…what kind of cell is this…?” His voice was shaky of the possible thoughts that had ominously rang ever since he walked in here.

The poor facility. The underground prison with isolated rooms…and the terrible howls…

'No, it couldn't be. There must be some kind of mistake…'

”Which penitentiary was it?” Xiong De wanted to confirm that.

The officer answered in deadpan manner. ”Congratulations to your entrance. This is the Shangguan Prison. Welcome to the worst prison of the country.”

Xiong De paled.

'No… There's no way...'

”T-there must be some mistake here. I w-wasn't told I will be sent here. I should be in Gangguan Prison in the G Province, not here in L Province! You've made a mistake!” Xiong De shouted in desperation.

He made a deal…he made a deal! The Five Kings could not do this to him…he held his end of deal!

The officer got irritated with his shouts, which echoed in the corridor. He picked at his nose and said, ”For people like you. With the sentence of Life Imprisonment, this place is the best for you. It saves a lot of resources. You see the man before? He just arrived here with the same sentence as you. As a matter of fact, this section was for the people who was so lucky to avoid 'execution'. This is the redeeming place for you to repent for all your sins.”

Xiong De's body shivered.

No! This was not the place! He could not even last here for a day!

He was Xiong De! He was a man who could change the direction of business trades in this country! He could not fall like this!
