Chapter 67 Exercise
"Red Alert activated. All prisoners please return to your cells immediately and close your cell doors. Do not open them until the alarm is lifted."

"Red Alert activated. All prisoners please return to your cells immediately and close your cell doors. Do not open them until the alarm is lifted."

The same broadcast was played over and over again in every prison area of ​​Yancheng Prison.

Ten minutes later, the alloy gate of the prison area was completely closed.

The radio also fell silent.

All prison areas fell into silence.

In the past, there were basketball courts where prisoners were supposed to run, but now there are only two abandoned basketballs. No prisoners can be found in the corridors, small supermarkets, reading rooms, small squares in the Hui-shaped buildings, or on roads leading to various prison areas.

It seemed that in just a short moment, Yancheng Prison became a deserted and empty city.

The ordinary prisoners who obeyed the broadcast and immediately returned to their cells were now filled with great anxiety.

Nobody knows what happened.

But all prisoners who enter the prison are told one thing when they come in.

That is, when the red alarm sounds, if you want to survive, you must obey the alarm broadcast instructions.

Although many of the old prisoners here do not care about this rule.

Because, in all these years, I have never heard a red alarm sound.

But whether new or old prisoners, they all have to recite the Prisoner Regulations every year. Everyone is both familiar and unfamiliar with this regulation.

Now this familiar yet unfamiliar rule suddenly appears in reality.

what does this mean?
Many people don’t dare to think about it.

An hour passed and the alarm was not lifted.

Two hours later, the alarm was still not lifted.

The less sound one could hear from outside, the more anxious the prisoners became, and the more they wanted to know what was going on.
The alarm was not lifted until evening.

However, some sounds could be heard at this time.

That was the sound of some kind of steel beast waking up and escaping from its cage.

Afterwards, sometimes there were the sounds of people falling to the ground with a groan, sometimes there were the sounds of people falling to the ground with a wail, and finally it was always accompanied by the sound of mechanical prison guards moving.

At nine o'clock in the evening, the radio sounded again:
"The alarm has not been lifted yet. All prisoners are requested to stay in their cells. After receiving the arrival notification of the prison guard delivering meals, please remain silent and quickly pick up the meals."

At around 9:10, Hua Si received a notification that the prison guard was coming to deliver meals.

After getting dinner, Hua Si couldn't help but look at the gray wall in the corridor, which seemed flat but actually had countless shooting holes installed in it.

If the prison has not yet gone so crazy that it really wants to carry out a major purge of the prisoners.

Hua Si judged that this should be a drill.

Otherwise, there is no way to explain why the female prisoner next to him was "shot dead" as soon as she opened the door.

It’s just that the length of this exercise is really uncomfortable.

Because it didn't end until the next day.

In order to vent their anger, some unbelieving prisoners couldn't help but yell at the prison guards who were serving them breakfast.

As a result, after a slight electric sound, there was the familiar sound of someone falling to the ground, and then the sound of the mechanical prison guard moving.

Listening to these sounds, Hua seemed to sigh.

How can these people be so unprofessional after spending so much time in jail?

Being unprofessional can be fatal.

The purpose of this exercise is most likely to deal with the unexpected events that Fu Chenyue mentioned.

Perhaps he realized that going out and making noise would never lead to any good results.

As the exercise approached 24 hours, the remaining prisoners quieted down. But Hua Si knew that this was only temporary. The psychological endurance of ordinary people staying alone in a closed environment would not exceed five days, and most people would only last two or three days.

Sure enough, this silence only lasted until the afternoon, and then someone couldn't help but open the door and wanted to go out.

The noises became more frequent.

Until the time comes to 48 hours.

The electronic broadcast sounded again:

"The red alert is over. This alert is a special prison exercise. Inmates who violate the rules during this period will be punished by being confined in their cells for three days."

As the broadcast ended.

Almost all the prisoners in the prison area burst into loud boos at the same time.

"Fuck! It's fake! I would have left if I had known!"

"Is there something wrong with the prison? Not only did they not notify us of the exercise, but they even cut off the internet!"

"What a damn exercise, why are they using rubber bullets instead of paintballs!? It hurts so much."

For a while, there was complaints inside and outside the prison.

And the electronic broadcast continues:
"The purpose of this exercise is to maximize the survival rate of all inmates in Yancheng Prison in the event of a sudden change in the future. The doors of the cells and the gates of the prison area are all made of special alloys. When the red alarm is activated, inmates are requested to return to the prison cells as quickly as possible. If they cannot return, they can find temporary shelters along the roads of the prison areas."

The radio has been diligently reporting on how prisoners should deal with emergencies and the responses the prison will take.

Someone listened to what was being broadcast.

Naturally, some people will turn a deaf ear.

They just thought it was an administrative exercise request issued by the parliament and soon forgot about it.

And Hua seemed to be secretly excited about this matter.

As the saying goes, the bigger the storm, the more expensive the fish.

All she wanted now was to quickly gather enough source crystals to wake up her old friend and build her own boat sturdier before the wind and waves came.

However, when he saw the mechanical prison guard bringing back the people who were being put in solitary confinement in his cell, Qiao Yi was one of them.

Huasi seemed to walk up anyway.

"Sir, I want to talk to her."

The mechanical prison guard's camera scanned Hua Si's face and name tag and approved it.

Including Qiao Yi, the prisoners who were also facing solitary confinement punishment were a little surprised.

When did the mechanical prison guard become so easy to talk to?

"What do you want to tell me?" Qiao Yi raised her chin slightly, looking a little irritated.

"Next time a red alert is issued, don't come out again, you could really lose your life."

"Is that all you want to tell me?" Qiao Yi frowned. "Why?"

Hua Sizhen was wondering if there was something wrong with Qiao Yi's language receptive ability.

Then she added, "I have been abandoned by the Qiao family, why do you still care about my life or death?"

Hua seemed confused for a moment and asked, "Do you have any money?"

Qiao Yi gritted her teeth and said, "Yes, but I can't assign you a designated labor task like before, because the qualification to issue long-term designated labor tasks requires more than just money, so they won't care about me anymore in the future."

The flower seemed to tilt its head.

"Oh, so you can give me money."

Qiao Yi: “.”
