Good-looking, not allowed to farm

On the day of Jamie's 'telling'.

Treasurer Levine left the prison in a hurry.

Then Jamie knew that the first step of his plan - to lure the treasurer away - had succeeded.

The reason for his success is that he guessed correctly the real purpose of the treasurer's visit to this prison.

Before this,

He just vaguely felt that the financial officer Levin's identity was not ordinary.

Although this person was very low-key during his time in prison, and he didn't intervene much in prison affairs.

But due to frequent visits to his office, Jamie noticed some unusual details.

For example, the prison guards generally showed an attitude of awe to the financial officer but did not dare to approach him; and the warden, the well-known person in charge of the prison, has hardly shown himself in recent times, and it seems that he has completely delegated power to him. financial officer;

In addition, the expensive wine in the office wine cabinet, the exquisite pattern embroidered on the dark side of the shirt, and the unique healthy eating habits in this era when most people only care about eating enough...

no doubt.

It could be a nobility.

Even if not, he should be someone who has a close connection with the nobles.

Why, then, did such a man come to a small local prison as treasurer?

Thinking of this, Macomb's figure immediately appeared in Jamie's mind.

Malcolm once mentioned that the reason he was imprisoned was for hurting others, and the general process was--be brave and hurt people too much.

But when the treasurer sent him to collect information, he directly said that Macomb was a member of the reactionary gang.

Obviously, Macomb had no idea that his identity had been exposed.

In this way, using the identity of the prison treasurer as a disguise, he instigated an innocent poor man (himself) who has nothing to do with all aspects, a clean background, and was imprisoned for offending nobles to defraud information...

It is needless to say what the real purpose of the treasurer Levine is.

"He mentioned the king's wedding many times, and repeatedly said that his patience can only last until the eve of the king's wedding. Therefore, the time of the king's wedding should be a deadline! And the setting of this deadline..."

After reviewing the whole matter, Jamie made a bold guess again: "There are two possibilities, one is that the financial officer's superior also set a deadline for him; the other is that the financial officer wants to seize the opportunity, Show credit to the king. Well, if he can wipe out the so-called reactionary gang before the king's wedding, it should be considered a big credit, right?"

But in short, no matter which possibility, as long as there is a time limit, there is room for manipulation.

It takes time to verify the true and false information given, however, the existing time is simply too late to send someone to verify it...

In this way, there is only one faster way left - to go in person.

Of course, there are still many uncertain elements.

For example, the financial officer feels that the time is tight, so he simply gives up and does not meet the deadline. Jamie has nothing to do about it.

Fortunately, Treasurer Levine is strong in action.

Although time is limited, he is more willing to make an effort than simply give up.

And so the most savvy and hard-to-handle man in the prison left.

Next...

Jamie began to walk up and down the corridor from the cell to the treasurer's office.

Here, I have to thank the financial officer for the gift before he left, so that he can have the opportunity to move freely and let the wind go.

At first some people wondered about his behavior, because the treasurer was no longer in prison at this time, and he had no reason to be there.

But soon, this doubt was dispelled.

Just because people prefer gossip stories and dirty gossip to hidden truths.

Jamie had anticipated this, and chatted with Joseph, who always liked to spread gossip, in advance, about the nasty words like 'the financial officer has only been out for a day, and I started to miss him'.

Joseph comforted him on the surface, then turned around and spread the news everywhere.

After everyone got a reasonable explanation, although they secretly laughed at him for being like a woman, and even privately and maliciously speculated about his miserable end when he was abandoned by the financial officer in the future, they were no longer curious about his behavior.

Therefore, Jamie was able to wait for the person he wanted to wait for smoothly and unobtrusively.

"Good morning, Mr. Fred."

He greeted a passing guard with a broad smile.

This prison guard named Fred can be regarded as a small and powerful prison guard.

He should have some background so that he can win over some people among the prison guards and organize some activities.For example, he was the one who took the lead in the unsuccessful group attack against the big thief Kukrops.

In fact, the purpose of that operation was not just to bully the prisoners.

On the contrary, Fred is ambitious. He wants to establish his status by suppressing the most powerful and prestigious prisoners in the prison. This is what happened to Cook. If you want to live a better life in the future, you have to pay me honestly'.

Alas, Cyclops is not an easy chicken to kill.

Although this powerful thief was attacked and beaten by a group at the beginning, and was at an extreme disadvantage, he still succeeded in fighting back at the last moment, which led to the failure of Fred's plan.

Although out of the awareness that the strong dragon does not suppress the local snake, afterward, Cyclopes found a middleman very well, and reconciled with the prison guards by paying a part of the money.

But this result is obviously not what Fred wanted... Liwei's goal was not achieved, and the money was too little.

But the matter is a foregone conclusion, and the prison is not his own, so it is impossible to go too far.

Fred could only hold back his breath.

But in private, he couldn't help harboring a grudge against Cyclopes, but he just didn't have the chance to retaliate for the time being.

This resentment is actually very unreasonable.

It was because he wanted to use force to threaten, ask for bribes from others, and when others resisted, he also used money to bribe for reconciliation, but he obviously received the money, but he thought it was too little money, and hated others for resisting and not giving face...

This behavior can be said to be very shameless.

Fortunately, although this person is shameless, he still treats Jamie friendly because of the financial officer's face.

So, after hearing the voice of greeting, he smiled back cooperatively, pretending to be very friendly: "Oh, it's Jamie, are you here to wait for the treasurer again?"

"Yeah, I miss him so much, I don't want to be separated from him for a minute. You don't know, he treats me well..."

Jamie pretended to be stupid and made up a bunch of stories about himself and the treasurer looking at the moon and stars together.

Prison guard Fred listened with gusto, and even had a kind of secret happiness in his heart of "accidentally spying on the privacy of his boss".

As he listened, he thought happily in his heart: "What? Is Mr. Finance Officer so romantic in private? Oh, Mr. Levin looks calm and rational, but he is also very good at pampering people secretly! Tsk tsk, on the surface Talk about the rules, but when it comes to coaxing beauties in private, how come the principles are gone?"

After saying this, Jamie effortlessly changed the topic to the amnesty order: "Levin said it."

He looked forward with happiness and said: "When he comes back from his work, he will sign an amnesty for me and take me out of here."

Fred did not suspect fraud.

It was because the prisoner had to pay [-] pounds to buy an amnesty, but for someone like a financial officer, as long as he didn't buy too much, it would be easy to get one or two amnesties.

But who knows, Jamie put on a terrified expression: "Oh, I accidentally slipped my mouth! Just pretend you didn't hear this, and don't ask me what an amnesty is. Levin said it was a secret, it was just It's for me, the only one...you forget about it, I won't tell you the details."

"What else do you want to tell me? Haven't you already said it all? However, Mr. Finance Officer is really good at deceiving people, so you still have the only one?"

Fred couldn't help laughing to himself, thinking that he had seen through the trick of the treasurer to coax the little lover.

Out of a bad taste, he comforted him on the surface, but actually exposed the lie of his boss on purpose: "Don't worry, I will definitely not tell it. It's just that the amnesty order is not new. There are always a few copies every year." , It’s not the only one. In fact, it’s not just you, some prisoners in our prison also want to use it to get out.”

"Ah? Am I not the only one?" Jamie pretended to be disappointed.

Fred was worried that he would arouse the financial officer's dissatisfaction by exposing the scam of the financial officer's coaxing lover, so he hurriedly added: "Although it is not the only one, it is equally precious. It is only because His Majesty the King is merciful and willing to rehabilitate A chance for every prisoner. But this kindness cannot be used indiscriminately, and a relatively high threshold must be set so that all prisoners will not receive this honor."

"A relatively high threshold."

"Five hundred pounds."

"God, so many!"

"This is the only way to show the sincerity of the prisoner's willingness to reform himself."

Jamie nodded, and then pretended to be curious and asked: "Then who is buying now... Well, I mean, who has shown sincerity to reform?"

Fred didn't think there was anything worth keeping secret about it, so he read a few names to him.

Most of them are not good people, but prisoners with certain power and property.Among them, the one-eyed thief Kukrops is naturally included.

But unexpectedly, when the name of Kukrops was mentioned, Jamie suddenly became filled with righteous indignation: "Wait a minute, it's okay for others, this thief is very bad, how can we let him out? I heard that he is a real Someone who killed someone."

"That's right." Fred, who had secretly harbored a grudge against Cook, suddenly felt a confidant.

He also said indignantly: "An unrepentant bastard like Cyclopes, who is only worthy of the gallows, really does not deserve this opportunity. Alas, unfortunately, the threshold of five hundred pounds may not stop him. .”

"Stop it if you can't stop it!" Jamie said.

Then, under Fred's perplexed gaze, he said earnestly: "Please don't blame me for being too talkative, my friend. Actually, I've seen you before. Before that, the time you got into a fight with him, I happened to be there."

Fred's face suddenly turned ugly: "Oh, are you there?"

Jamie pretended not to notice his displeasure, and continued to look filled with righteous indignation: "Yes, it was because of my presence that I realized how bad a person can be. I saw with my own eyes that you have gained the upper hand, and he Hold your thigh and beg for mercy."

"Uh, this is what you saw?"

Fred subconsciously agreed: "Yes, he begged for mercy."

Jamie continued: "You are kind-hearted, and you don't want to kill people. Under his pleading, let him go."

Fred murmured, "Ah, am I? Yes, yes, I'm too kind."

"However, not just anyone deserves to be forgiven, that despicable villain!"

Jamie clenched his fists and said angrily: "That despicable person sneaked up on you, from behind!"

Fred couldn't help feeling angry: "Yes, yes, that bastard! Sneak attack! Sneak attack!"

Jamie continued: "Of course, this still doesn't detract from your bravery. You fought hard, but it's a pity that you can't compare with his shamelessness."

"Yes, it's me."

"You didn't give in to him in the end, and you even gave him a warning!"

"Yes, it's me."

"After that, you were magnanimous and never bothered with him."

"Uh, not really, it's just that the money he gave is not too little..." Fred whispered to himself.

Jamie pretended not to hear and went on to say, "It's just a small matter to you. It's enough to see that this man is ungrateful and vengeful. You let him go, but he still insists on it." Rao sneaked up on you... My good sir, have you thought about it? Now he is fine in prison, but if he goes out! He is in the dark and you are in the open. If he wants to take revenge on you, what should you do? ? He is a thief, or a big thief with a gang. You are only one person, no matter how brave you are, you are no match for four hands."

Fred couldn't help but startled, really considering this possibility.

He has a small belly and a vengeful character, and he judges others by himself, so he naturally doesn't think that anyone will be willing to put down his hatred lightly. In this way, it seems that the revenge in Jamie's words is really not just talking about it!

Jamie glanced at his expression, and added anger: "Actually, Cyclopes is not the only one in the prison who has the sincerity of reforming himself. It is time to investigate in many ways and choose reliable candidates to live up to him." A kind heart from His Majesty the King."

Fred felt right.

Although he didn't immediately express to Jamie, "You're right, this amnesty cannot be given to Cyclopes", but the obviously moved expression, as well as the hasty look of saying goodbye and leaving, saying that he has something to do, are obviously What to do.

Jamie was very satisfied with this, and stayed for a while to make sure that no one was paying attention to him, then pretended to be nonchalant, and bounced out of this corridor.

Then, he decided to wait a little while to find the one-eyed thief Cyclopes, and pretend to be indignantly to report-the amnesty that you walked out of the prison in good faith due to the help of the bad prison guard Fred... Alas, it is gone!

So, if you still want to get out of prison...

Let's do something that suits the thieves' personality together!
