"Reid?"
"Oh, it seems that you still remember me." Reid's voice came through the iron fence, leisurely: "What you did today was really pleasing, but, Wu, forgive me for saying that."
"Have you thought about the consequences of doing so?"
Wu Xingzhi smiled: "To be honest, I didn't think about it at the time."
"However, where can it go?"
Rhett was silent for a moment, "Indeed, after all—"
"Sorry, I'm not a talkative person, but I've never seen someone like you in Shawshank for so long."
"To be honest, you don't seem like the one who should be here."
"Whether the people of Shawshank are vicious or go with the flow, they all bear the Shawshank brand after all."
"Oh?" Wu Xingzhi was very interested: "How do you say it?"
"The walls in prisons are really interesting, when you first go to prison, you hate the walls around you; slowly, you get used to living in them; eventually you find yourself having to live by it. That's the system change."
Reid's tone seemed to come from a very distant place, "The longer you are here, the closer you will be to Shawshank, and the farther you will be outside."
"Is it institutionalized?" Wu Xingzhi thought for a while: "It's an interesting theory, but it's not suitable for me."
Wu Xingzhi never felt that he would stay in Shawshank forever.
"It's really not suitable for you." Reid seemed to think of something and said, "People like you will either burn up like fireworks, or live in the crowd forever."
"you?"
"Oh, sorry, I just thought of a friend of mine." Rhett said slowly: "You may not know that I'm not a talkative person, let alone someone like you-"
He paused and said, "The prison guards like to call your actions riots, but I prefer to call them resistance."
"He always resisted, but he often said he resisted because he knew that if he didn't resist, he wouldn't resist next time."
"You are very similar to that friend of mine, but you are more direct and more reckless."
Reid did not continue to speak. In his heart, this Asian named Wu could only be fleeting like a Shawshank fireworks after all.
Wu Xingzhi naturally knew what he didn't say, but he didn't care. If he didn't have a system, he might think like Reid.
"I'd really like to meet your friend."
"I hope there is a chance." Reid said in a low voice: "He is still in the confinement room. I really don't know if he can survive the month of confinement."
Wu Xingzhi moved in his heart.
I remember when I was in the confinement room before, the person next to me was locked up for a month.
For half a month, from beginning to end, Wu Xingzhi didn't hear the slightest sound from there. If it wasn't for the prison guards delivering meals every day, Wu Xingzhi even suspected that the other party was dead.
"Is the person you're talking about called Du Fulan?" Wu Xingzhi asked involuntarily.
"How do you know?" Reid looked particularly surprised: "Before you went to prison, he was locked up."
"Hey, it's a coincidence." Wu Xingzhi explained: "Speaking of which, he is my neighbor in the confinement room."
"Is he all right?"
"I'm not dead, I don't know about the rest." Wu Xingzhi replied, and then there was no sound there.
It is not yet time to turn off the lights in the prison, inmates can do their own thing in their cells.
Even people who have no hobbies will develop some hobbies under the torture of endless time to send their empty souls away.
Whether it's reading, studying, or following the Warden's teachings, study the Bible.
Wu Xingzhi was not interested in these, he hung upside down on the iron fence and began to crouch frantically.
About an hour later, Wu Xingzhi heard a long sigh coming from the side.
"So, hope is a dangerous thing."
Chapter No.16 I am willing to help others
Wu Xingzhi came down from the iron fence lightly.
In fact, with his current physical fitness, ordinary exercise is meaningless.
But Wu Xingzhi prefers the feeling of exercising, which makes him feel fulfilled.
Strangely, he had never liked to exercise before, preferring to lie around doing nothing.
The cell was fairly quiet. Although there were discussions in twos and threes, the volume was kept low, which is probably the habit of the prisoners—if it was too noisy, it might attract the prison guards.
"Hope?" Wu Xingzhi heard Reid's sigh, and smiled: "If a person has no hope, what is the difference between death?"
"..." Reid was silent for a moment: "Andy once said the same."
"But in Shawshank, hope doesn't help, it just drives people crazy."
Wu Xingzhi moved in his heart and remembered the sentence in the basic task description of the system.
He asked, "Ryder, you should have been in Shawshank for many years."
"Have you ever met someone who wanted to escape?"
"Prison break?" Reid was probably shocked by the word: "The newcomers who just came in may think so, but as time goes by, they will know that this is an impossible thing."
"Including your friend named Andy Duflan?" Wu Xingzhi asked slowly.
"Andy?" Rhett sighed.
"Maybe Andy had this idea when he first came to Shawshank." Reid said word by word: "Wu, you may not know that Andy has been in Shawshank for nearly 20 years."
"Twenty years is enough to wear down a lot of things. At least in my opinion, Andy has gotten used to life in prison, and even feels like a fish in water."
"I admire his resistance and the hope he still holds until now, but we all know that there are only two ways to leave this prison, die inside and let the soul go out, or go out with the body and keep the soul inside. "
Wu Xingzhi frowned and didn't give up: "I heard that you have strong channels in prison, and you can even communicate with the outside world, have you never thought of breaking out of prison?"
"I said it, it's impossible." Reid's tone was decisive.
However, there must be someone in Shawshank trying to escape, otherwise the system would not be able to send such a task to itself.
Could it be Andy Red said?
But the other party has been locked in the confinement room for a month, and if the other party is really capable of escaping from prison, I don't know how many times he can try in 20 years. As Andy's friend, even Reid thinks that the other party is impossible to escape from prison.
Forget it, wait until the other party comes out and touch it to know.
When Wu Xingzhi was thinking, Reid's voice came again.
"You know what you want to ask. After all, in your current situation, it is normal to want to escape from prison."
"I can only tell you that the security at Shawshank is stricter than you might imagine. On the outer high wall of the prison, there are prison guards with guns on patrol 24 hours a day, and the living areas of the prisoners are always under their watchful eyes."
"At every point in time, the prison guards will count the number of people. You don't have time to leave the living area, let alone escape from prison. Even if you have supernatural powers to climb over the high wall, the prison guards will quickly kill you. After all, all around Shawshank, It's an endless wasteland."
"Those people will never show mercy."
Jailbreak?
In fact, Wu Xingzhi didn't consider the issue of jailbreaking now. After all, even the basic tasks have not been completed yet.
but--
Wu Xingzhi suddenly flashed an electric light.
Yup!There are so many prisoners, and it is indeed a needle in a haystack to find one by one, but what if the other party can find you?
"You're right, Rhett." Wu Xingzhi said righteously, "I really want to escape."
"So you need your help."
"I said, this is impossible!" Reid said quickly.
"Everything is possible." Wu Xingzhi interrupted Reid's dissuasion, "If you don't even have the courage to try, that's the saddest thing."
Rhett was silent for a long time before he said, "What do you want me to do?"
"Tell the prisoners that I want to escape, preferably all prisoners know."
"They won't be involved, there is no hope at all, no one wants to kill themselves." Reid said.
Wu Xingzhi chuckled: "No need for them to participate."
"You should know that I have no choice. In a few days, maybe not a few days, Hadley will be discharged from the hospital, and I will be in a very bad situation."
"Since death is on the left and right, I would rather die on the road to freedom than be tortured to death."
"You tell them that I will make a scene and attract the attention of the entire Shawshank. If anyone wants to escape from prison, they can contact me. I believe this will be a good opportunity for them."
"..." Reid felt a little incredible and asked, "What good is this for you, using your own death as a wedding dress for others?"
"Take me as a good person who is willing to help others." Wu Xingzhi paused: "If you can block these damn prison guards, why not do it."
"Besides, who said I was bound to die?"
"..."
Reid wanted to say that Wu Xingzhi underestimated Shawshank Prison's defenses too much, but on second thought, what if he didn't underestimate it?
In Reid's eyes, Wu Xingzhi is a dying person, just as he said, die on the road to freedom, or die in Hadley's endless torture.
Reid couldn't help but admire.
"I'm actually a businessman." Reid said: "In Shawshankerry, I believe in equal-value transactions, helping others, others will pay the same price."
"So, what do I need to pay?"
"Hey, Wu." Reid's tone became lighter: "You have already paid."
"You're paying for a story that you'll be able to recall often at night, and I think it's a good deal."
"Hahaha, it's interesting." Wu Xingzhi was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "So, happy cooperation?"
"Happy cooperation, don't worry, before noon tomorrow, the entire Shawshank prisoner will know the news that you want to make a scene."
"Then I'm looking forward to it."
