Episode 154
“Did you hear? They said prison guards are coming from Korea today.”
A young prison guard who still had a youthful look on his face spoke to a middle-aged prison guard who was patrolling with him.
“What is that?”
The middle-aged prison guard gave a harsh answer.
The young prison guard scratched the back of his head, as if his reaction had been unexpected.
“No, what is it… I heard there was a hero prison guard there, so I was a little interested.”
“What kind of hero prison guard are you? What kind of superman are you?”
The middle-aged prison guard’s reaction was still cynical.
“…I heard that he is also a prison guard in charge of awakened people. He was also active in the Gate disaster, and formed a guild with released prisoners, and the recidivism rate has been zero for several years….”
“Hmph, are there any decent awakened people in that small country? They all seem to be as docile as idiots. If you deal with these truly evil people, you won’t even be able to come to your senses.”
“….”
The young prison guard was silent, as if speechless.
This is because it is true that America’s special prisons are where people who are more vicious than you can imagine come to.
There were some truly crazy people who couldn’t be described simply as being vicious.
Suddenly, a middle-aged prison guard walking in front stopped.
He picked up the prison baton that was hanging on his belt.
Then he banged on the metal grid of the cell in front of him.
“Hey, there! Why are you still sleeping? Sit up quickly!”
A middle-aged prison guard shouted in a loud, deep voice.
The glassy-eyed prisoner lying in the cell slowly stood up, frowning.
“Oh, it’s really noisy… I’m not in a good mood today and I’m really tired, so please just ignore it in times like this.”
“Why are you talking nonsense like that? Wash your face and come to your senses.”
The middle-aged prison guard said this and knocked on the steel grate again.
“Ah, please! It’s noisy, so stop knocking.”
Snoopy grumbled and glared at the middle-aged prison guard.
“And you are my boss? Why do you keep saying this and that?”
The middle-aged prison guard snorted, not at all intimidated by those words.
“Then what is it? You, who came in after committing a crime, are you my master? Are you my master? If you’re a prisoner, act like a prisoner. It looks like you want to be treated like a B-class, but all the things here are B-class. Don’t freak out about how amazing that is. .”
“I just saw your face. If you leave here, I won’t let you go.”
Babseonun said as if threatening.
“You’re such a loser, you’re so bad. Either that or not. He’s standing up straight. If I see him again later, I won’t just ignore him.”
The middle-aged prison guard banged the metal grate again as if warning and then walked away.
The young prison guard who was standing behind and blankly watching this series of events quickly followed behind the middle-aged prison guard.
He glanced back once and opened his mouth.
“As expected, you are amazing.”
“what?”
“I still have a hard time dealing with the prisoners here, but you handle them so skillfully.”
It wasn’t that difficult to catch awakened people below C level.
The guards made up their minds and came out strong against them.
If there is a prison guard who fails to do so and acts timidly, the senior will be the first to receive the silent treatment.
The atmosphere itself made it difficult for them to confront the guards.
I have clearly seen fellow inmates being properly punished for fighting back.
However, level B and above were another story.
They knew very well that they were strong and had a high social position.
Even the prison guards couldn’t help but be aware of it.
It wasn’t just that.
Grade B and above had a certain basic aura that small children below grade C did not have.
At first, the young prison guard thought it was nonsense, but after coming here, he painfully realized that his thinking was wrong.
Even just looking into the other person’s eyes gives you a feeling of being intimidated.
That wasn’t an illusion, it was real.
For those reasons, it was very difficult for the young prison guard to deal with the prisoners imprisoned here.
Even pointing out one wrong action was not an easy task.
“If you gain experience, you can do anything.”
The middle-aged prison guard said as if it was no big deal.
However, the young prison guard’s eyes were filled with respect.
They went up the stairs to the upper floor, the fourth floor.
It was a place where Class A awakened people were imprisoned.
The young guard swallowed dry saliva, as if he felt nervous just looking at the entrance to the Sadong building.
The middle-aged prison guard also did not look as relaxed as he did when patrolling the lower floor.
Beep.
When the middle-aged prison guard placed his finger on the fingerprint recognition area, the door opened.
However, it was not completely open; only the outermost door was open.
Beep beep beep.
This time he started pressing the number keys.
Soon another door opened with a mechanical sound.
But still not all doors were open.
The middle-aged prison guard finally took out the key pack and began looking for the right key.

The last door was locked in a fairly old-fashioned way.
Crash.
After finding the key and opening the lock, all the doors to Sadong were finally opened.
The young prison guard did not think that this seemingly excessive lock was excessive at all.
The 4th floor was a place filled with people who were A-class awakeners and murderers.
Class A awakened people were undoubtedly a very prosperous group in society.
Normally, he would not have committed a serious crime like murder that could bring such a prosperous life into ruin.
Nevertheless, committing a murder could be interpreted as enjoying the murder itself, unless it was accidental.
They are truly dangerous people who can commit such acts again at any time if they return to society.
The door was closed again and the middle-aged prison guard began patrolling as before.
The young guard followed suit.
It may not be an illusion that their steps somehow feel a little fast.
Under the gaze of a young prison guard, a prisoner came into the cell, lying down and rolling around.
However, the middle-aged prison guard did not point out anything this time.
He just glanced at me and walked to the next cell.
The young guard fully understood the actions of the middle-aged guard.
Even the guards who had just arrived knew that nothing good could come from messing with the inmates on the fourth floor.
Because it was such an important matter, seniors made sure to educate them.
“Hey, guard.”
Someone called them.
When they turned their heads, an inmate with a snake tattoo on his face was looking at them.
“What’s going on?”
The middle-aged prison guard asked.
“this.”
Snake Tattoo raised his finger and tapped the magazine on the floor.
There was a picture of a naked woman on the outside.
It was a p*rn magazine.
“I’m sick of it now, so get a new one.”
In the United States, many states have banned the introduction of pornographic magazines into prisons on the grounds that they cause people to become more violent and aggressive, causing difficulties for correctional administration.
California also ostensibly did not allow pornographic magazines to be brought into prisons.
However, since prisons are also places where people live, they did not strongly discourage the inmates from bringing in information and passing it around among the inmates.
However, prison guards did not openly provide pornographic magazines to inmates.
This could also cause problems with the authority of the prison guards.
However, the snake tattoo was very openly requesting this from the prison guard.
It was an attitude as if he was making a request to a subordinate.
Despite this, the middle-aged prison guard did not show any sign of displeasure.
I just answered with an expressionless face.
“Okay. I’ll bring you a new one next shift.”
“Next shift? When is that?”
“two days later.”
“Two days later? Shit, it’s too late.”
Snake Tattoo cursed and grumbled.
Then, he suddenly gazed at the young prison guard with a sharp gaze with a strange glow.
“Hey, there’s a prison guard there.”
The young prison guard flinched unconsciously and looked at the snake tattoo with nervous eyes.
“You’ve lost your body so thin, right? If you put it in bread, there won’t be any butt left, kekekekekeke.”
“….”
The young prison guard could not get angry despite the blatant s*xual insults.
His body trembled slightly, not with anger but with a look of complete discouragement.
I was completely overwhelmed by the strange yet sharp gaze of the snake tattoo and the breathtaking force emanating from its body.
It was a feeling of intimidation on a completely different level from the intimidation felt by B-class people.
That’s what Class A was.
“Hey, f*ck your ass. This guy needs to take a step back, huh? That way he can survive for two f*cking days.”
“….”
“Are you dumb, you bastard? f*ck your ass right now, you stupid bastard.”
“You’re joking too far. Stop it.”
A middle-aged prison guard stepped forward and spoke.
“I’m serious?”
The snake tattoo now glared at the middle-aged prison guard with a gaze that felt like madness.
“If it’s not a joke, I guess I’ll have no choice but to tell the director.”
A middle-aged prison guard sold the warden’s name.
The two people who did not have a large number of Class A prisoners were the warden and deputy warden.
In this case, the only way to respond was to borrow their authority.
“Huh, well… okay, stop.”
The snake tattoo twisted the corners of its mouth into a wry smile.
Only then did the suffocating feeling subside a little.
“Anyway, please bring me something nice, okay?”
“I’ll take care and get it to you.”
With that answer, the middle-aged prison guard took a step forward.
There was nothing good about staying longer, even for the young prison guard.
The young prison guard was still sweating coldly with a displeased expression on his face.
◈ ◈ ◈
“Whoa, whoo….”
A young prison guard who left the fourth-floor building wiped the sweat from his forehead and took a deep breath.
I hadn’t been patrolling that long, but I felt like I had lost all my energy.
I didn’t even know I might have really lost weight.
“…Why on earth doesn’t the government execute those bastards?”
The young prison guard, who had calmed down a little, complained.
In the United States, some states have the death penalty and some do not.
California was a state. And it was actually executed.
However, I had never heard of a death row inmate on the 4th floor being executed.
“Isn’t it obvious?”
The middle-aged prison guard opened his mouth.
“What is it?”
“I guess you think it has some value.”
“No, what use do those crazy bastards have?”
The young prison guard spoke in a voice full of resentment.
“How do I even know that?”
The middle-aged prison guard answered bluntly.
Beep beep.
At that time, a sound came from the radio that the young prison guard had in his upper pocket.
The young prison guard quickly took out a walkie-talkie and put it to his ear.
-Notify the prison guards of Red Sadong. An inspection team from Korea will be visiting there in 20 minutes, so get ready.
“Huh? Korean prison guards are coming here?”
The young prison guard muttered.
“what?”
At those words, the middle-aged prison guard made a bewildered expression for the first time.
“No, what on earth are you thinking, Director? Letting you see this place.”
Why would they let us see a place full of high-risk, violent criminals?
However, it was not possible to show that it was thoroughly managed.
If you want to show off to the outside world the appearance of a thoroughly managed building, the remaining buildings are sufficient.
No, it wasn’t enough and I had no choice but to show those movements.
This red building was a building where even experienced prison guards had a hard time.
“Wow, I’m a bit shocked too. I didn’t know they’d let me come here.”
The young prison guard also shook his head in surprise.
“this….”
A middle-aged prison guard suddenly thought of something and opened his mouth.
“yes?”
“I think the warden is trying to give me a good scare?”
“Wow, no way….”
The young prison guard opened his eyes wide.
I felt it again from the snake tattoo earlier, but the energy emitted by the inmates here was no joke.
Especially Class A.
It’s not just A grade.
This is grade A food with proper flavor.
No matter what kind of prisoners I would have dealt with in Korea, it was clear that they would be qualitatively different in a bad way.
“Well, it’s none of our business. Let’s get ready.”
The middle-aged guard gave the young guard a look urging him to go.
◈ ◈ ◈
“here is?”
The head of the security department raised his eyes and asked, looking at a building that appeared to be about five stories high.
“Haha, if you look at it with expectant eyes, there is nothing special… This is also Sadong. The difference is that it is a collection of B-level and higher inmates.”
Alcatraz Deputy Director Dean said with a smile.
“ah.”
Even in Korea, inmates of Class B or higher are housed separately on the top floor, so Sihyeon and his group immediately understood what was being said.
However, in the United States, it seemed like a large building was built and housed separately.
“Then shall we go in?”
Dean said and took the lead.
Sihyeon and his party followed him as they had done so far.
‘the feeling is… .’
Sihyeon tilted his head.
This is because an unpleasant sensation came from the building.
This was my first time visiting Alcatraz before.
“Brother? What’s wrong?”
As Sihyeon stood lost in thought looking at the building, Kangbaek, who was next to her, called out to her with puzzled eyes.
Sihyeon’s eyes turned to Kangbaek.
His expression had returned to normal.
“No, let’s go in.”
