Chapter 436: Chapter 436 Try Special Flavors_1
Several days later, Rose Iron Prison, core area exercise yard.
"I canāt stand it! Donāt you think itās weird?" Fille yelled at Camilla, who was sitting on a chair.
"Whatās wrong with you now?" Camilla leaned back on the bench, one leg crossed over the other, frowning.
"Think about it, Master Aiden hasnāt inspected for so long, what on earth is he busy with?" Fille complained loudly.
"Oh, the usual spring fever," Camilla smirked, "Poor whore, itās been almost five minutes since youāve been in contact with a man..."
"Hey, Iām serious! Donāt you find it odd?" Fille said earnestly.
"Didnāt you just help him with some business a few days ago, together with me?" Camilla yawned indifferently.
"Thatās one thing, but the pathetic frequency of his appearances is another. These past few weeks heās hardly ever inspected the core area, when he used to come twice a week before!" Fille said, hands on hips.
"Look at those people behind us," Camilla raised her hand, pointing behind her.
"Hmm?" Fille turned her head.
Prisoners walked in pairs or groups around the yard, some laughing and chatting, others conversing at the edges of the yard.
"What about them?" Fille turned back, puzzled.
"Itās so peaceful it makes me want to vomit," Camilla said, tipping her head back, "In the past month, I havenāt heard of anyone fighting, even the newcomers are as docile as rabbits. I canāt find anyone to pick on! Have you asked those two witches in cell twelve? Since your pirate roommate tried to escape, until today, not a single escape! Usually, thereās at least one idiot a month..."
"Normal prisons arenāt filled with escapes," Fille retorted with a pout, "It just means that the discipline in this prison has gotten better."
"Thatās exactly the problem! How often does an inmate in a regular prison see the head warden? If heās not coming around to show force and keep order, whatās the point of his visits?" Camilla said, scratching her ear with her little finger and flicking it toward Fille.
"Yuck! Thatās disgusting!!" Fille flinched away in disgust, "So are you saying that as long as something goes wrong in the prison, heāll start coming more often?"
"Thatās a good idea," Camilla snapped her fingers, "Hey, give me some money, and Iāll beat someone up. Wouldnāt that count as āsomething going wrongā?"
"Why would I make an enemy for myself? If they start an investigation and you rat me out, wonāt I die with you?" Fille refused.
"Thatās simple, Iāll just beat you up, wonāt I?" Camilla smiled.
"Pay someone to beat me up? Am I stupid?" Fille muttered.
"Oh, so youāre not stupid after all."
"Even so, itās weird that he hasnāt even come by the workshops during the day. Whatās he busy with all day long?" Fille folded her arms, "Heās up to something during the day, isnāt he?"
"Doesnāt your roommate do chores in the hallway every day? Havenāt you asked her?"
"Pfft, what should we talk about? Weāre not that close," Fille replied coldly. She still shared a room with the female pirate Annie Drake. After Annieās failed escape, she had learned to keep quiet, but she made no attempts at befriending her roommate, and Fille wasnāt interested either.
"Where is she?"
"Over there!" Fille pointed in the distance.
Camilla looked over and saw Annie squatting idly by the edge of the yard.
"Hey, errand pirate!" Camila called out, full of swagger as she sat on the bench.
Startled, Annie turned around.
"Come here," Camila motioned to her, then gestured a fist-clenching move, "Hurry up!"
Annie hesitated for a moment but still walked over obediently; after all, she had suffered at Camilaās hands before and now she no longer had any backers.
When Annie approached gingerly, Camila, seated on the bench, asked, "Youāve been doing errands in the hallway, right? Have you seen the warden?"
Now Annie was assigned to cleaning duties in the prison, sweeping the corridors of the core area, not exactly heavy work but rather ironicāshe and her father once ran through these places with pirates and escaped female prisoners.
Sometimes, the guards let her clean the offices and the duty rooms while being watched. Although Aiden never let prisoners clean his office, those responsible for chores had opportunities to reach the guardsā working area while other prisoners were out, increasing the chance of encountering Aiden.
Annie didnāt know the purpose of the question and honestly answered, "Yes."
"Have you noticed what heās been busy with lately?" Camila pressed.
"Well, no..." Annie faltered.
"Think hard!" Camila cracked her knuckles, and the joints snapped loudly.
"Uh..." Annie strained to remember, managing to find a clue, "Recently, he seems to often go toward the solitary cells...yes, in the mornings and afternoons. And once, I heard him ordering the guards not to let the cleaning crew near the solitary cell corridor."
"Whatās he doing in the solitary cells? The prisonās so calm, whoās in solitary confinement now?" Camila frowned.
"Damn! Whoās the little bitch?" Fille suddenly clenched her fists, "He goes there both morning and afternoon and doesnāt allow disturbances; itās clearly a secret meeting, right?"
Annie glanced at her but said nothing.
"If you want to teach her a lesson, just pay me," Camila grinned wickedly, "With enough cash, I can take care of anyone!"
"Moneyās not the issue. The problem is, who the hell is that little bitch?" Fille frowned, "Iāve heard nothing about someone screwing up and getting solitary confinement."
"Itās Halo, that lunatic went crazy in the infirmary and got locked up,"
šššš¦šššššš·šš.šøš°š
The abrupt voice carried across from the exercise yardāMeiruki Slave happened to walk by during her lap around the track, overheard their conversation, and casually answered their question.
"Ah! Cell number three has been empty lately!" After a momentās silence, Fille abruptly remembered.
"Shit, the wardenās having secret rendezvous with her!?" Camila was so shocked she nearly leaped from the bench, "When did his taste become so twisted?"
"That, thatās impossible!" Fille laughed unnaturally, "A lunatic woman in her thirties, with ordinary looks and figure, how could my charm lose to that sort of woman? Impossible, just impossible..."
She had just teased Presia about this when Halo went crazy before; she never thought it could turn out like this.
"You never know. Maybe the warden suddenly wanted to try a special flavor." Meiruki Slave sneered coldly, then walked away on her own.
Filleās expression froze on her face.
Then, she turned aggressively toward Camila, "Hey, what we just discussed, about the price being negotiable, later you help meā"
"Iād rather die than do it!!!" Camila flatly refused.
