Chapter 58:
Intercept
Meirujinu led the way, briskly walking down the prison corridor, pulling Evangeline along. followed closely by Ophelia and Dailey.
"This seems a bit too easy, not a single guard in sight" Ophelia looked on their surroundings.
"The chaos in the infirmary drew the riot squad away. With all the attention focused there, our path is naturally clear." Meirujinu voice carried a hint of pride
Dailey, who had recently joined their escape plan, inquired, "So where are we headed now? Can you finally tell me?"
"We're heading to the corridor's west corner near the interview area. We're going to intercept the warden there," Meirujinu replied.
Dailey questioned, "How are you so sure he'll be there? He usually roams around the prison, doesn't he?"
"We sent Arsena ahead to find him, pretending to have valuable intel. And lead him to the interview room. With the infirmary incident, he'll undoubtedly take that route, and we'll be waiting for him," explained Ophelia, her crimson eyes gleaming with excitement.
Aiden, the one who had apprehended her, was coincidentally also the warden that in charge of overseeing her after she was sentenced to Rose Prison.L1tLagoon witnessed the first publication of this chapter on Ñøv€l--B1n.
From the Inquisition bureau to the Rose prison, Having endured years of humiliation under his authority, she, a proud vampire princess, was finally releasing her pent-up frustration today.
She wanted to use his blood to cleanse all the humiliations She had suffered over the years!.
Dailey pondered, "So Arsena has been swayed by you as well... It seems the warden's days are numbered."
"Hmph, He may be a formidable force, but he won't survive, being surrounded by so many." Ophelia sneered coldly.
"After killing him, what's next? Are we going to the infirmary to rescue the other?" Dailey asked.
"No need. The warden has keys and magic items to lift the enchantments. Once he's gone, we can leave directly through the main gate. No need to take the long detour," Meirujinu replied.
"The riot squad should be focused on the infirmary. It's unnecessary to clash with them. And The Inquisition Bureau isn't far from here. If we miss the timing, even with our combined strength, we won't get far."
"The twin you sent in was deliberately injured, and was sent to the infirmary. Simultaneously causing a disturbance with the drug-addicted inmate.
Even if I were foolish, I should have figured out that the circulation of drugs within the prison was orchestrated by you the 'Ant Queen' ," Aiden slowly remarked.
"The records of the Inquisition Bureau state that the children raised by Witch Meirujinu have undergo a long-term drug modifications. It seems your proficiency in pharmacology and magical drugs is indeed well-deserved."
"You are indeed clever," Meirujinu nodded in acknowledgment.
"No, I'm not clever enough. If I were truly smart, I would have suspected you when those twins took drugs and entered the infirmary for investigation. In that case, I could have exposed you to the Inquisition Bureau earlier," Aiden self-deprecatingly smiled.
"On the other hand, if it weren't for the accidental discovery of contraband while investigating the succubus Fei, I probably wouldn't have immediately suspected you."
In the intricate maneuvering between inmates, prison guards, as overseers, often found themselves in a passive position. They could only act when inmates caused trouble.
For instance, in the recent riot, the guards could only suppress the inmates after the unrest had begun.
Aiden wasn't a clairvoyant detective but an experienced prison guard. His only capability was to lay preventive measures early on, which Meirujinu, unfortunately, didn't give him the time for.
Just as he intercepted the drugs, before he could expose the perpetrator, she decisively implemented her riot plan in advance, catching him off guard.
I have to say that this woman is indeed a ruthless character. Fact have proved that her unexpected move really worked.
"Your goal is to break out of prison and take Evangeline with you," Aiden surveyed the scene and commented. "Ophelia, it seems you've also fallen under her influence."
Ophelia retorted with a cold smirk.
Aiden didn't show much surprise when he saw Ophelia, but When he saw Dailey standing at the back, he furrowed his brow slightly. "Dailey, what are you doing here?"
"As you can see, Warden," Dailey flirtatiously threw him a glance. "I simply made a wise choice."
