Chapter 1379.1: Skein
The cell door opened, and Su Xiao walked out of the cell under the envious gazes of the other prisoners.
Several soldiers behind the chief stepped forward, holding handcuffs and shackles in their hands.
An unpleasant clang echoed down the prison corridor.
— Just in case, " the boss said, and pulled the collar of his clothes tighter. Although his face was covered in scars and he didn't look very good, he didn't have a disgusting aura and didn't look like a bad person. Moreover, given what country he lived in and how many scars he had, he was most likely very popular with women.
A few soldiers felt uneasy. All these shackles, which they put on him "just in case", weighed a total of 168 kilograms, as they were created from a special metal.
There were no ordinary things in this prison. Only heavy, time-tested devices.
A young soldier with a few pimples on his face took off the belt from his waist and very quickly tied it around Su Xiao's wrists.
The chief looked at the young soldier with obvious satisfaction in his eyes.
Why did the boss decide to do this? Did he want to put Su Xiao in a better light? Oh no, he wanted to give the people from the ministry a " surprise».
— Let's go.
A few soldiers were in the front, the chief was in the middle, and Su Xiao was at the end of the column, with six soldiers bringing up the rear.
Such a formation had already become something natural to them, making them ready to engage in battle at any moment.
They were currently on the third underground floor of the prison, the lowest and also the most protected floor. Sitting in the cell, it was difficult to feel it, but when Su Xiao reached the exit, he found that there were at least dozens of soldiers and two heavy machine guns stationed at the exit.
The power of weapons in this world was a bit abnormal. If those two heavy machine guns opened fire, the entire third floor would most likely immediately become empty and lifeless.
After the inspection, the warden led the column up. No matter who wanted to enter or leave the prison, they had to pass the appropriate inspection, and even the alliance president was no exception.
After passing through many checkpoints, Su Xiao went up to the first floor, and the security of this floor was even stricter.
Although it was already evening and it was already very dark outside, Su Xiao could see at least five watchtowers through the glass window in the prison courtyard. Searchlights on these towers slowly combed the prison grounds, not forgetting to look through the glass windows..
When the spotlight hit his window, Su Xiao immediately felt that at least three people were aiming at him.
The danger made Su Xiao tense up. He didn't know anything about this world yet, so he didn't fully trust this prison and the local warden.
— Don't be so vigilant, they're just doing their job, " said the warden, who was walking in front with an unfiltered cigarette in his mouth.
Soon Su Xiao was brought to the door of the warden's office.
Laughter kept coming from the office.
The boss picked up a half-smoked cigarette and crushed it out. "Those two bastards...
The soldiers rolled their eyes and stared at the ceiling as soon as they heard this.
At such times, they all became deaf and dumb.
Su Xiao immediately realized that there was some kind of grating going on between the warden and the people from the office. But it was quite understandable. The Alliance was clearly not a single entity, since even its laws and selection principles assumed that people with very different opinions were in power.
The alliance's military hated politicians, and politicians only saw the military as reckless maniacs. The alliance's businessmen hated the military, as they only saw them as a bunch of robbers. And in such a situation, the president acted as a mediator who tried to direct these three different groups in the right direction.
Businessmen weren't supposed to mess with politicians, and politicians weren't supposed to mess with the military. The military were tigers, and tigers released from their cages would start harming people, so they needed to be contained. The President and his inner circle represented the highest point of command, which also controlled the army.
The warden took a deep breath, put on a polite smile, and opened the door.
