6 Badu Island Secret - part 2 (2/2)
”What are you standing there for?! Come here and get your bracelets checked before you start with your work!”
The two of them had finally reached the front of the queue and didn't realize that it was finally their turn. There were four lines and four guards were individually checking each prisoner's ankle bracelets before letting them go through the small door on the side. Wuxing still wondered what could be inside there that needed such a huge wall around it with an even bigger metal door as the entrance.
He approached the gate and a skinny guard said, ”Quickly show me your bracelet. Don't hold the queue.”
”I am new here, so I don't have a bracelet yet,” Wuxing replied calmly while lifting his pants, showing his naked ankle.
”Oh, it's you! There is only one person coming outside of the weekly transport so it has to be you.” The skinny guard changed his rude attitude after realizing Wuxing's identity. ”Were you really from Seven Stars? It would be a pleasure to guide you today!”
He checked his touchpad excitedly for additional information, but then he frowned.
”Someone already assigned you another guard to explain your duties, so he should be here in a bit to pick you up... ” the guard informed him with a confused look on his face. It was the first time he heard of someone having such special treatment. He was also sad that he lost an opportunity to ask various questions to someone from the Seven Stars Special Forces. After all, joining Seven Stars was a dream for him.
”Okay, show me your leg.”
He quickly took a monitoring bracelet before sticking it above Wuxing's ankle. It closed itself before tightening to match the leg's size. When the skinny guard was just about to stand up, he glanced to the side and frowned once again seeing who was coming.
He pretended he was still checking the bracelet and said quietly, ”Try not to talk too much to him.” He then beckoned the next prisoner in line.
Wuxing had not yet even processed the message the skinny guard left him when he heard someone calling out from the side.
”You are Prisoner Number 42960? Follow me!”
Wuxing turned and saw the back of a man in military clothing who didn't even wait for him to confirm his identity. The man had a massive build with abundant muscles but he noticed that some of the man's short brown hair had turned grey already. He was definitely a veteran as the passing guards greeted him respectfully.
Having no other choice, Wuxing followed the man towards the door leading inside the hidden place. As the door was open, even from a distance, he could already see what was inside.
”What the f—”
Wuxing wanted to curse but his words got stuck at the back of his throat.
