Ten minutes after the virus invasion, Guding looked at the R-rated images appearing on the screens in the monitoring room and dialed the prison's emergency number—it was Old Henry's direct line. "Prison Director, I am the new Guding, currently in the monitoring room. However... I just discovered that there seems to be a problem with the images in the monitoring room..."
"I know, I'll be there immediately. Notify the network technician and have him figure out a solution." Hearing Old Henry's somewhat tense tone before he abruptly hung up, Guding guessed he must have already heard about the virus invasion of systems on other planets. But he knew it didn't matter; this couldn't change the fact that the system was about to collapse.
A few minutes later, Old Henry arrived at the monitoring room, but he too received word from the network technician that the system had been completely breached.
"Unlock all prison checkpoints and confinement devices, and keep an eye on where Uncle Cain is, generate a route map for me." Guding secretly issued new instructions to Sea Emperor.
"Prison Director, I'm going to use the restroom." Guding notified him and left the monitoring room for the restroom. Old Henry, staring numbly at the monitor, had no mind to care about Guding. Once in the restroom, Guding locked a stall and stripped off his intern's police uniform, changing into a dirty prisoner's outfit. After changing, he didn't come out immediately but sat on the toilet lid, watching the events unfold through the surveillance feed controlled by Sea Emperor.
After the prison's checkpoints and Forbidden controls were disabled, the inmates quickly began to riot. In less than five minutes, some inmates were rushing toward the prison guards' office area.
Guding switched off the monitor, and hearing the commotion draw near, knew the inmates were already causing chaos in the office area before he finally opened the stall door.
At that moment, the restroom door was suddenly pushed open, and a prison guard in uniform locked the door behind him, gasping for breath. Guding's heart tightened, and he silently moved behind the guard with a Dark Step, delivering a chop to the neck, knocking the guard out instantly.
Dragging him aside, Guding then unlocked the door and stepped out of the restroom. To his left was the prison guards' office area, filled with noise, so he headed right, toward the inmate area.
Sea Emperor had long since locked onto Cain's position, and Guding sprinted in that direction, chaos surrounding him. The inmates, venting their anger, had smashed almost everything along the way. Water dispensers, coffee machines, vending machines... practically nothing was intact.
He encountered several ferocious-looking inmates, but thankfully in his prison clothes, no one bothered him. He easily found Cain in the crowd.
"Uncle Cain!" Guding shouted.
Cain stood at a fork in the road, hesitating which way to go. Hearing someone call his name, he turned, surprised. In his memory, he only knew Rousi and the others on Sea Blue Star, but this time only he was captured, leaving him puzzled about why he'd find anyone familiar in this prison. Seeing Guding, his expression momentarily froze.
"Little Guding, how are you here?" Cain questioned, looking rather puzzled.
"Come with me, I'll explain later." Guding led Cain toward the prison guards' office building. "This riot is only temporary; we must leave quickly."
While speaking, Guding secretly instructed Sea Emperor to notify Cain's crew to be ready to set sail at any moment.
Aboard Cain's ship, Cavill, surprised by the unexpected message, was about to speak up when someone nearby shouted, "Someone just sent me a message saying the boss is coming out soon and to be ready to set sail at any moment."
"I got it too!" voices echoed as many received the same message.
"Hurry! Start up the power systems, get ready to set sail! As soon as the boss arrives, we leave immediately!" Cavill, as the Deputy Captain of the pirate group, promptly gave the correct orders.
"Deputy Captain, are you sure this information is real?" one person couldn't help but ask.
"I'm not sure, but I choose to trust it." Cavill stared sharply in the direction of the Sea Blue Star Prison.
Guding led Cain through the prison guards' office area; Cain, unfamiliar with the exit, stuck closely behind him.
"We'll first go to the prison guards' office area to change into police uniforms; then we can walk right out the front door," Guding explained his plan to Cain. He chose the office area for the uniform change because, although attacked by prisoners, fewer inmates were there compared to other areas. The prison's only exit required passing through the office area, where other guards could attract prisoner attention, reducing their chance of confrontation.
Soon, they reached the prison guards' office area. Guding slipped into a restroom, with Cain following closely. Guding retrieved two sets of guard uniforms from his Storage Space, tossing one to Cain. "Once changed, immediately head back to the harbor. I've informed Cavill and the others you're on your way; they should have already fired up the ship's systems for departure."
Both quickly changed inside the stalls, and Guding hurried with Cain toward the exit.
Just stepping out of the restroom, they encountered three fierce-looking prisoners. Mistaking them for real guards, the prisoners charged.
Cain deftly sidestepped, his body flickering, as three swift chops struck simultaneously at their necks, too fast for Guding's eyes to track. The prisoners crumpled instantly; admiration flickered in Guding's eyes, yet he didn't hesitate, leading Cain toward the door.
The two smoothly exited the main gate of the Sea Blue Star Prison. Cain raised an eyebrow, "Although I don't know how you did it, I must thank you. They'll eventually find out it was you behind this; come with us."
"No, Uncle Cain, I'll be fine, don't worry. Go on; your partners are waiting for you." Guding waved carefreely, flashing his trademark smile.
Guessing Guding had his own escape plan, Cain didn't press further, waved back, and disappeared in a few leaps.
Just then, two more prisoners burst out of the prison gates. Seeing Guding's uniform, they didn't pay much attention, seemingly avoiding conflict, and swiftly departed. However, one glanced briefly in the direction Cain had just left.
Watching them leave, Guding didn't care, bowing his head to send a message to "Meat Floss" Auntie, "Auntie, Uncle Cain has successfully escaped, so you don't need to worry."
