Prison Island

Chapter 3: Those who resist will be killed without mercy
There are flocks of birds on the beautiful seaside.

But upon closer inspection, it was actually pecking at a corpse floating on the sea.

At least a dozen people died in the sea, all of whom were poor swimmers.

The white sand beach was also full of people lying on it. Some of them stood up after a short rest, while most of them were gasping for breath and unable to get up for a long time. Some were even motionless, and it was not known whether they were dead or unconscious.

Gao Xin was also exhausted at this moment. He was a good swimmer, but he still needed to give it his all to cross the sea for hundreds of meters.

Just as he took a breath and was about to stand up, a hand suddenly reached out.

"Brother, I see you are swimming very fast. What's your name?" The speaker was a shirtless man with a lean figure and beautiful muscle lines. There were more than a dozen people following him.

"My name is Gao Xin, Gao means tall and Xin means hardworking." Gao Xin held his hand and used the force to stand up.

Then he added: "I didn't swim very fast, it's okay..."

"I grew up by the river and I have no problem swimming for a whole day and night. This is my first time crossing the sea, so I'm a little uncomfortable and slowed down."

Gao Xin's first reaction was to be humble, but when he saw that the other party had already gathered more than a dozen people to join him in such a short time, he realized that he must not be humble at this time.

This is an island, and being good at swimming should be considered a skill, which might come in handy.

"Oh?" The naked man smiled and said, "Little brother, my name is Luo Yan. Since you are also Han Chinese, then follow me from now on."

"We were all exiled to this damn place together. We are all unfamiliar with the place, so we should stick together and help each other."

"Okay!" Gao Xin nodded immediately. It would be a good thing if someone took the lead in organizing everyone.

Although these people are criminals, they are all newcomers here and no one knows what the situation is on the island, so it is always a good idea to stick together first.

This is probably the easiest group to integrate into.

Luo Yan nodded, without further ado, accepted Gao Xin, and headed towards the next target without stopping.

Everyone hurried to catch up and soon recruited a few more.

Gao Xin discovered that he didn't approach everyone. He didn't actively recruit people from other ethnic groups, and obviously only picked Han people.

As more and more prisoners swam ashore from the sea, Luo Yan's team continued to grow.

A huge group of people followed him, making him very conspicuous on the beach. Later on, he no longer needed to recruit them personally, as people would spontaneously follow the team.

Gao Xin roughly counted them and found that there were about sixty people. Almost all the Han people gathered here.

The remaining two hundred or so prisoners were scattered around the beach, still confused. They belonged to different ethnic groups. Although the government had popularized a common language and there were no communication barriers, no one among them stepped forward to organize them.

There are even more than 30 radiators among them. Even though they are radiators, they seem to be full of fear of the Sin Prison Island.

They all stayed on the beach, shrinking back and not daring to go deeper.

After all, the Island of Sin is full of hidden talents. All the terrible criminals who could be caught in the past 20 years have been sent here. Who wouldn’t be afraid?
"The scenery is really beautiful. It is worthy of being a famous tropical island in the western Pacific Ocean."

Just as everyone was hesitating, Luo Yan suddenly admired the scenery.

This made everyone turn their attention to him. After all, this was the legendary hell-like place, and he still had the mind to praise the beautiful scenery?
Luo Yan was seen bending over to pick up shellfish on the beach. He first looked at the color, then broke them open and ate them raw.

While eating, he said: "The ingredients here don't seem to be polluted too much. At least it's much better than the seafood in the city."

"Try it!"

After hearing what he said, some people actually tried it. Luo Yan asked them how it tasted, and everyone who had eaten it said it was good.

Suddenly the atmosphere began to relax, and some people even started to go fishing and caught two coconut crabs.

If you ignore the name of the Sin Prison Island, the scenery here is pleasant, the climate is warm, there are no problems with animals, and there is an abundance of food. It feels like a resort.

"So what?" A blond-haired and blue-eyed radiator finally couldn't help it and came up to ask Luo Yan.

Luo Yan smiled: "This stretch of coast looks completely undeveloped, which means that the island either has a stable food source, such as one provided by the government."

"Either there's no one around here at all, and none of the exiles on the island are gathering in this area."

"No matter what happens on the island, no matter what happens when we encounter them, at least we should be safe now."

Everyone thought about it and it did make sense.

All of a sudden, the other radiators gathered around and asked, "Brother, what do you think?"

Seeing that everyone was focusing on him, Luo Yan immediately said loudly: "I have already counted the number of people. There are 303 of us in this group."

"Before we even got to the island, we lost fifteen people, leaving two hundred and eighty-eight people. It seems that there are thirty-eight people who survived the radiation attack. But there is no doubt that those who survived are good swimmers."

Hearing this, Gao Xin counted them and only saw thirty-seven radiators.

Hmm? What about another one?

Gao Xin looked around and finally his eyes fell on Luo Yan, thinking that it could only be him.

Because Luo Yan was shirtless from the moment they met, she couldn't see the nameplate on his prison uniform, nor could she see his name, number, and radiation type.

Thinking back, Luo Yan seemed to be the one standing in the first row and the first one to jump into the sea.

And at that time, he had already thrown away his clothes.

At first glance, it seemed normal to take off clothes while swimming, and no one paid attention to it at the time, but now it seems that he was the only one who did it, so it seems a bit unique.

"Hide my radiation type?" Gao Xin thought to himself.

He is a glass man and has only a vague understanding of the radiators. He only knows that the types of radiation are divided into N, R, SR, and SSR, and the number of each type is one in a hundred of the former.

But I can't figure out why Luo Yan hid this. Is it too high or too low? That's why he didn't want people to know?

At the same time, Luo Yan was still talking, making a big circle with his hand in the air: "Although we are prisoners, we are not sentenced to death, but the people who escorted us treated us like this, which shows that the moment we were exiled to the Prison Island, our lives were no longer important."

"So I prefer the second possibility, that there is no one living nearby."

Everyone nodded. Officer Adams was unwilling to even get close. He was like this when escorting prisoners, so how could he deliver food steadily?
So this place looks undeveloped, and there is a high probability that no one lives nearby.

Luo Yan continued, "In that case, we should just stay here and get food here. Don't go in too deep, and don't separate. Let's wait until we understand the situation on the island."

"We are all in the same boat. No matter what we have done in the past, since we have the good fortune to be exiled here together, we can be considered cellmates."

Everyone thought it made sense, especially the Han people he had gathered earlier, who all agreed. Seeing this, the more than 30 radiators also acquiesced.

Only the one named Xia Heng said in a hoarse voice: "We are both wanderers in this world... Well said, have you ever been to school?"

Luo Yan said calmly: "I graduated from a technical school, Jinling Mechanical and Electrical Vocational Technical College."

Many people present were shocked. A high-level intellectual! Those who could afford to go to a technical school these days were truly extraordinary.

Tuition fees are expensive and it’s hard to find a job. After all, most technical jobs have been handed over to AI by giant companies.

In this case, it is useless to spend huge amounts of money to graduate, unless one achieves extremely high achievements and is appreciated by the top 20 companies. But how can these poor guys afford this?
Gao Xin sighed secretly. He was just a poor guy who couldn't afford to go to school. The official community education only taught him common characters and some arithmetic, that was all.

"You studied at a technical school. Can you find a job?" Xia Heng asked in surprise.

Luo Yan raised his head and said, "I just don't understand. Does going to a technical school have to be for work? Isn't going to a technical school for the purpose of enriching yourself?"

“Fuck…” Everyone stared at Luo Yan, wondering what kind of family this guy came from?
Xia Heng was surprised and said, "So you are an educated person. I will call you Technical School Brother from now on."

Luo Yan said he didn't care: "It's up to you, then I'll call you Brother Husky?" Xia Heng said hoarsely: "No, no, no, I have a nickname. My name is Chicken Gizzard because I like to eat chicken gizzards."

Luo Yan blinked and said nothing. Gao Xin felt that this man was a little crazy.

The blond and blue-eyed radiator from before was obviously of a straightforward character. He couldn't help but ask, "Technical school brother, you let so many people eat coconut shells here?"

Luo Yan spread his hands and said, "If there's not enough food on the shore, there's still food in the sea."

"I can use palm bark to make a net to catch fish. Many of my brothers are good at swimming, so I think we won't starve to death."

"What do you think, Gao Xin?"

Gao Xin was startled when he was suddenly called out.

But he quickly realized: "I have no problem. As long as there are fish nearby, there will always be a way. But I definitely can't do it alone."

Luo Yan seemed to have expected him to say that, and immediately started to call out names: "Su Le, Liu Di, Cao Yang, Xu Feng, Cheng Men Li Xue..."

He read out the names of twenty people in one breath, and finally said, "You will be responsible for fishing with Gao Xin."

The people who were called out were standing in the back row of the team and could not see their nameplates, but Luo Yan blurted out their names. Could it be that he wrote down the names of everyone he had come into contact with?

When these people were called, they thought that the group in front were chatting enthusiastically, and Luo Yan obviously had the final say.

People like us are just made of glass, so we dare not refuse and can only agree.

"Gao Xin, most of the food for more than 200 people depends on you. You have worked hard." Luo Yan patted Gao Xin's shoulder.

Gao Xin said: "Technical school brother, I will do my best."

Luo Yan was stunned. It seemed that he could not get rid of this nickname.

But it didn't matter, he joked: "Then I will call you Hardworking Brother from now on."

Gao Xin's mouth twitched. What kind of weird nickname is this?

But the people around him also called him "hard-working brother", so he had no choice but to agree.

Seeing that he had gained momentum, Luo Yan immediately struck while the iron was hot and arranged for some people to cut wood and some to go fishing.

Although there is a lack of tools, there is strength in numbers, and he can provide technical guidance, so there is no big problem.

The thirty-odd radiation victims were happy to see that they were not assigned any tasks and agreed.

Once they agreed, the glass people had nothing to say and gathered according to the groups assigned by Luo Yan.

Twenty people gathered around Gao Xin at once, all of whom belonged to his team and listened to his work arrangements.

"We will all be working together in the future, so we need to get to know each other better. Let's talk about our respective specialties."

"Thank you for your hard work, brother. I'm a forest ranger in Daxinganling. My swimming ability is actually not very good." The young man named Sule spoke first.

Seeing that he really called him brother, Gao Xin was secretly happy for a moment. Although the task was arduous, it seemed that he had become a small cadre in this team of more than 200 people, right?

I didn't expect that I couldn't find a job in the society and was just waiting to die, but now I have to manage people here.

However, there were no tools on hand for the time being and he had to wait for other groups to make the fishing nets, so Gao Xin started chatting with the twenty people in his own group to get familiar with his team members.

However, just when he had just gotten to know the person and nothing happened.

Suddenly there was a commotion in the woods, and a group of people in charge of collecting wood ran out in panic.

Judging from the situation, we encountered the enemy.

Gao Xin immediately led his men to Luo Yan's side, and just then he heard Luo Yan say, "Everyone, I didn't expect to encounter an accident so soon. All the radiators, come with me to take a look."

Luo Yan's eyes looked a little serious. After all, according to his previous judgment, there should be no one living nearby.

But he was still very calm, maybe one or two scattered ones.

His shirtless upper body muscles were tense as he took the lead.

The rest of the radiators followed suit.

Obviously Luo Yan had not assigned any work to these radiators and had been chatting with them, intending to make them the protectors of the team.

This matter seemed to be going smoothly, which made Gao Xin very moved. Luo Yan was indeed a cultured man and was really capable. He had brought together nearly three hundred criminals in a short period of time.

However, before they had taken a few steps, these people were suddenly stunned, as if they saw something, and stood still.

The other prisoners were so frightened that they dropped what they were holding and retreated towards the coastline.

They saw people, a lot of people, strutting out of the woods.

In a continuous line, from the woods on one end to the high sea cliff on the other side, strong men with weapons appeared one after another.

There are about a hundred people!
They were all wearing kimonos, had ugly hairstyles, and were holding knives. They pressed forward step by step and surrounded them along the coastline!
This is a group of Japanese. Although there are not as many people as them, it is obvious that they have no good intentions and they all seem extremely fierce.

The leader was a burly man. Although he was not tall, he had strong muscles and a cold look in his eyes.

The loose black kimono was bulging on his body, and he had a terrifyingly large knife on his waist.

Next to him, there was a thin and beautiful boy hunched over, wearing thin and bright clothes. He was the only humble character in the group.

"Everyone, stand in a row!" the thin boy shouted at the top of his voice, conveying the words of the strong man next to him.

"Those who resist will be killed without mercy!"

Luo Yan frowned, the situation was completely unexpected.

How come there are so many exiles? And why are they surrounding us in an organized group?

Looking again, the radiators who had just promised to protect the team had all retreated to the back, leaving only Xia Heng by their side.

In response to this, Luo Yan took a deep breath and was still very responsible. He stood out from the crowd and stood shirtless in front of everyone.

He said in a loud voice: "My name is Luo Yan. You should be the seniors from the Prison Island, right? There are a total of 38 radiators and 250 ordinary people here. They are all newly exiled people sent by the government."

"We are new here and don't know the rules. We are very willing to join you and hope you can take us in..."

He didn't say any polite words. Judging from the performance of his own radiator, he knew he wouldn't be able to win.

It would be nonsense to tell the other side to let them go, after all, they have surrounded them. Therefore, Luo Yan made his position clear and direct, hoping to join.

It can be said that he is quite aware of the current situation.

However, a Japanese rushed up and slapped him: "Baka!"

Luo Yan was knocked to the ground, and a mouthful of teeth and blood burst out.

Luo Yan's head was buzzing and his eyes went dark. He couldn't get up. The blood spurting out of his teeth dyed the gravel red.

"Who the hell are you? How dare you act like a boss!"
