False Court

Chapter 934 Accident

Chapter 109 Temporary Conscription

Su Mo picked up a bagged sandwich and tossed it to him. Long Ke immediately devoured it.

"Where did you guys go?"

Su Mo asked in a low voice.

"Where else? To clear the ruins area."

Long Ke swallowed the sandwich in his mouth, gasping for breath.

"Ruins area? Isn't this a prison? You went outside?"

Su Mo looked bewildered.

"No, let me explain it to you. This prison was built on the foundation of ruins. Later, something happened, and the prison rioted, resulting in a massive explosion that collapsed half of the prison. The area we're in now is the newly rebuilt section, but the other half remains in ruins. The prison's AI, Prisoner, has been developing that area. However, some areas are difficult for machines to operate in, so we prisoners are needed to act as laborers. We get drafted about every ten days."

Long Ke explained to Su Mo.

Su Mo listened with great interest, feeling like he was hearing some explosive inside information.

"Is the ruins area dangerous?"

"Oh, my ancestors! How could it not be dangerous? There's not only strong radiation, but also ultra-high negative energy pollution, as well as special viruses and poisonous gases. There are even various mutated creatures lurking there. Although their ranks aren't very high, we don't have any mechanical armor or mecha on us. Any one of them could kill us. We top-tier criminals are all very skilled, but even so, some people don't make it back every time. Not to mention the prisoners above us, their mortality rate is even higher. This old body of mine almost kicked the bucket in there."

Long Ke said, still feeling the aftereffects.

"Okay, according to you, it's definitely not a good place."

Su Mo shook his head, sighing.

"You don't have to worry, you definitely won't go to that hellhole. I'm really envious."

"Can't I refuse to go?"

"Oh, if it were us, who would dare to refuse? We'd be killed immediately. Do you think everyone is as lucky as you? To put it bluntly, once you enter this prison, don't even think about getting out. It's good enough to survive until now. How can you be so comfortable? You're not here to serve a prison sentence, you're here on vacation to experience prison life, right?"

Long Ke looked at Su Mo with envy.

"Okay."

Su Mo didn't say much.

...

Several days later, Su Mo continued to eat, drink, and wait for death as usual.

He found that he was gradually adapting to the prison. Living here was quite comfortable, not to mention the regular routine.

Plus, the food wasn't bad, and he'd gained a pound or two recently.

Su Mo was a little embarrassed. It really didn't seem like he was here to serve a prison sentence.

"End of work! Everyone leave the work area and return to their cells."

A prison guard shouted.

The many prisoners who were working hard put down their dissection knives.

Many of the criminals still stared at Su Mo with fervent eyes.

Unfortunately, Su Mo had become smart. He didn't leave so early, so these people had no way to get close to him.

However, just as Ti Luo walked past, Su Mo picked up an apple and threw it to her.

"Here!"

Ti Luo raised her hand and caught it directly, glanced at Su Mo, and continued walking forward.

The prison guards nearby pretended not to see it. Anyway, it was just a little food. Su Mo could give it to whoever he wanted.

Su Mo had nothing to do lately and chatted with people often. Since he had become familiar with some of them, he would give them some food from time to time.

It could be considered laying the foundation for his formal imprisonment in the future.

In any case, it was good to be familiar with everyone, so they could take care of each other in the future.

Of course, Su Mo didn't give it to just anyone. He chose people. He would reward those he liked, and ignore those he didn't.

For example, he kept his distance from that SSS-level criminal, Ma Qi.

However, that guy was also very sensible and didn't come looking for him.

"Big Brother, almost everyone's gone, it's time to return to the cell."

Long Ke ran over with a smile on his face. These days could be said to be the happiest days of his life. Following Su Mo, he had food and drink. His originally wrinkled skin had even improved a little.

"Cough, cough, I've said it before, don't call me Big Brother. You're at least a dozen times my age. It feels weird when you call me that."

Su Mo replied helplessly.

"Big Brother, I've acknowledged you. It has nothing to do with age."

Long Ke flattered him vigorously.

"Let's go back to the cell. Do you think it's too much to have some grilled lamb skewers for a late-night snack? It's been a long time since I've had barbecue."

Su Mo thought for a moment and asked.

"Not too much at all, how could it be too much?"

Long Ke's eyes lit up.

"Okay, it's settled then."

Su Mo said decisively.

...

At night, Su Mo squatted in his cell, happily eating grilled lamb skewers.

"So fragrant!"

In the cell next door, Long Ke was eating grilled lamb skewers while tears streamed down his face. He felt like he was dreaming. If he could have a can of cold beer, he would be willing to die.

The criminals in the surrounding prisons were also swallowing their saliva.

"Share some with us!"

"Give us some to eat!"

...

"Shut up!"

"Anyone who shouts again will be sent to solitary confinement."

The patrolling soldiers scolded angrily.

It took a while for the commotion to subside. The captain on night duty couldn't help but sigh.

What was going on? Eating barbecue in the middle of the night, how could it not cause a ruckus?

But oh well, as long as that ancestor was satisfied.

However, at this moment, a row of mechanical guards drove over. They said to the guards, "Temporary conscription of personnel to work in the ruins!"

As soon as these words came out, the originally quiet prison suddenly boiled again. Many prisoners roared.

"Why? It hasn't been ten days yet!"

"What's the basis for this!"

...

"Those who refuse to work after their names are called will be executed without mercy!"

The mechanical guard replied coldly.

The prison guards on the scene frowned slightly, but didn't say anything.

Su Mo was also puzzled. Wasn't it supposed to be ten days? Why was there a temporary conscription?

"No way."

Long Ke, who was happily eating, froze.

At this moment, a mechanical guard walked towards Su Mo and the others.

When Long Ke saw it, he looked as if he had lost the will to live. He said to Su Mo, "Big Brother, I'm going to take a step first. If I don't come back, don't miss me too much. Thank you for taking care of me during this time. I have no way to repay you."

"Don't say such depressing things. Maybe it's not for you."

Su Mo said with a rather heavy heart.

At this moment, the mechanical guard walked past Long Ke's prison door, then stopped at Su Mo's prison door, turned around, opened the cell door, and said to Su Mo.

"You have been conscripted."

Su Mo was dumbfounded.

Long Ke next to him was also dumbfounded. His eyeballs almost popped out. What was going on?

At this time, the guards next to him saw this and realized that something was wrong. They quickly ran up and said to the mechanical guard.

"This prisoner has other tasks to do. Change someone!"

"No, the development of the ruins is the highest priority task. No one can be exempted. It must be carried out."

The mechanical guard refused without hesitation.

Seeing this, Su Mo knew that the situation was not good, so he decisively walked out of the cell.

The guard said to Su Mo in a low voice, "It's okay, you follow the main force first, we will notify Warden Anjie."

"Okay."

Su Mo didn't say much.
