Big things
Thorn Flower Prison
3:16 pm, afternoon
Inside the gorgeous office at the top floor the warden Jones and his butler Peter were sitting in balcony enjoying tea A black cat was lying above the table and purring once in a while People ere fa ss were his favorites
He preferred kittens and puppies to a woman One he invited ain the office
Moreover a prison guard once forgot to feed dinner to his hound ‘Cassie’ and a since then no one had seen that guard
“Greedy little kitten … …” Jones touched black cat’s head while there was a kind smile on his face
He was just 38 years old In addition to his huge background, his abilities were not that could be ignored by the others
“It’s raining again,” butler Peter sighed as he looked out theto the rain
Jones indifferently said: “It’s just a drizzle”
“It will turn into a heavy rain maybe even a storm” Butler replied
Jones waved his hand as he looked towards the maid The latter obediently handed over a fluffy cotton-padded jacket “Rheumatism… Your joints and bones will be in pain so put it on” Jones handed the jacket to the butler
Butler Peter quickly got up and thanked as he put on the cotton jacket: “Every rainy season the pain affects me Unfortunately, there is no cure”
Jones was s at hiot close to him She whispered a feords into his ear Jones shtly in understanding He looked out of theand softly said: “You are right A drizzle will always lead to heavy rain…”
Butler noticed the strange expression on Jones’s face and asked: “What’s the matter?”
“A prisoner ran away” Jones whispered: “It’s the little guy as brought three years ago A prison guard have found out that he wasn’t replying to them so they have checked his cell and found a tunnel A jailbreak ”
“Prison break?” Butler was surprised “How did he get the tools? Where would he escape?”
“He should have stolen the tools while the workshops Most probably he have planned to dig under the lake” Jones looked out froently touched the table: “The radius of the lake is around 300 meters… ”
Butler was shocked: “Dig out a tunnel through the lake? How could he have planned such a thing? Hoould he handle the soil?”
The slender wo to the prison guards he has round Because of diuards were not aware of the situation ”
Butler was speechless
Jones raised his hand and stroked the black cat which was eating norant on their conversation as it was concentrated on eating Jones gently stroked cat’s hair and softly said: “Hand down an arrest warrant Immediately deploy the black cavalry to trace the whereabouts of the criminal”
“Yes” Woman replied and was about to turn and leave
“Wait” Jones stopped her He still kindly looked at the black cat and whispered: “The guards responsible for giving theuard as looking after Cassie”
She nodded but her body hair was erect She quickly left
After she left, the butler couldn’t stand anymore and said: “There shouldn’t be any defect in prison’s structure Even the drainage systeuard on the other side How could he run away?”
Jones shook his head slightly: “There are no defects Perhaps the biggest flaw is the construction of the prison in the lake The walls are too thick We always thought that no one would be stupid enough to chisel such a thick wall Not to mention to make a tunnel all the way out of the lake Because of the thickness of the wall this fella was able to dig all the way out and no one was able to hear sounds It was the biggest advantage of the prison but it had turned to a drawback in this case”
Butler sighed: “If so, then it is a reuards can’t be relaxed It would take an enor a tunnel and coh for hih”
Jones nodded, “Fortunately, the little guy was from first section” Then he patted the black cat and so an play”
There was a small factory on a desolate remote street at north of slums
Dudian bought soe to coue that resulted because of non-stop running and stress of few days passed away as his body strength was restored to soree
He got out of the carriage and was about to enter the factory when the sign outside the factory caught his eyes It was actually his arrest warrant
“Its been just one night The efficiency is quite fast for the news to spread all the way to here” Dudian’s eyes flashed However he didn’t avoid but entered the factory There was an old guard at the entrance: “I need to find few people Kroen, Joseph, Barton…”
The old lanced at Dudian: “They are at work What do you need them for?”
Dudian took out three copper coins from his pocket and handed it over,: “Help me and call them out Tell them that an old friend of their have come to see them”
The forone as the old man saw the copper coins He put theet them for you”
Dudian quietly waited while the old nize that Dudian was on wanted list Actually his hair was cut and he was looking totally different to the picture where he was depicted Past three years his hair was long and disheveled Although the prison guards tortured them over and over but they would never take a deep look to their face After all, the prisoners would never comb their hair and no one was interested remember a prisoners face which would die in prison in any case
Moreover, the picture was drawn at time of his imprisonment There were delicate features that were depicted on it which belonged to three years ago But in the last three years his appearance has changed a lot The fastest growing stage of the person is when they are between 10 to 16 years old Now, there was no remains of childish and delicate look that he had in past Because of pain, hunger and torture his facial structure had changed a lot His face more slim and broere a bit heavy Moreover he was a bit ed too
