After the pleasant female voice finished speaking, it was silent.
Brandon could hear a hydraulic hiss from the metal cell door as it opened.
He looked out of the door.
Outside the cell, there was a circular corridor.
The prison cell seemed to be a square building. There were seven floors in total. Each floor was densely packed with cells. Strangely, the higher the floor, the fewer cells there were.
It looked quite different from the cells in the movies.
However...
Much stranger things, like transmigration and escape games, had already happened. This was quite normal by comparison.
Brandon took a light breath, steeled himself, and walked out of the cell.
As he walked out of his cell, he would welcome a brand new life.
He was ready to welcome the storm!
Just as he stepped out of the cell, Brandon felt his scalp go numb.
He realized that the moment he walked out, all the prisoners turned to look at him. Such a strange scene made him feel a little uneasy.
What was going on?!
Why were they all looking at him?!
"Breakfast time. All prisoners are invited to the dining hall for breakfast."
The female voice sounded again. The prisoners finally shifted their gazes away from Brandon.
However, Brandon didn't know if it was his mind playing tricks on him, but he felt like these prisoners were still paying attention to him, intentionally or not.
'Why are they all looking at me like that?! Do I look like a dinosaur or something?' he ridiculed in his heart.
At the same time, he also made some new discoveries as he walked out of his cell. He was on the sixth floor, and there were only ten cells. Including himself, only four people walked out, which meant that the other six cells were probably unoccupied.
As for the seventh floor, he didn't see any cells.
On the first floor, there was a large square, which was probably a place for prisoners to move freely.
At this moment, Brandon noticed that the other three prisoners on the same floor were still looking at him. But what made him feel strange was that the way the three of them looked at him wasn't mocking or malevolent toward the newcomer. Instead, it was pure hostility!
This made him feel extremely strange.
Could it be that these three people knew his previous self?
Brandon could not help but consider the possibility, but he did not entertain this thought for long.
Although the memories of his previous self were hazy, he still retained traces of his memory. The faces of the three people in front of him were completely unfamiliar, so it was impossible for them to be people he used to know.
Since he could not figure out why they seemed so hostile to him, he couldn't be bothered to think about it.
Whether it was hostility or mockery, the result was the same.
Fortunately, he had exchanged his survival points for [all-martial arts mastery] and [all-weapon mastery]. Even if someone had bad intentions toward a newcomer like him, he wasn't afraid anymore.
When the three people saw his calm face, they became even more vigilant and hostile toward this newly-arrived S-class superhuman.
After giving Brandon a scrutinizing look, the three of them took the lead and went downstairs.
Brandon took a few deep breaths. As a newcomer in the prison, he couldn't be too cowardly or too arrogant, or he would risk drawing the attention and ire of the other prisoners. Although he had two more rewards to protect himself, he still had to be very cautious.
Only after going down to the first floor did Brandon realize that the square on the first floor was much bigger than expected from what he could see upstairs. In fact, it was the size of a few football fields.
The square was open, without any barbed wire blocking it.
At the same time, he also noticed that the square was divided into several areas: a restaurant, a fitness area, a reading area, an audio and video area, etc. There was even something resembling a casino.
There were no partitions between the areas. It was like a large entertainment center.
This seemed simply absurd to Brandon.
Could this still be considered a prison?!
However, he did not show any signs of his surprise.
On each of the four walls of the square, there were two large locked doors.
Suddenly, Brandon's expression froze. He saw a person wearing a black uniform sitting at the dining table.
The most amazing thing was that it was a woman!
There was a woman in this prison?!
Brandon was stunned. He was already on guard, but he did not notice when the woman had sat down at the dining table.
At this moment, the woman was enjoying her breakfast at the dining table.
She seemed to be oblivious to everything around her. Brandon was utterly shocked: a woman in a prison was as eye-catching as a dinosaur in Times Square.
However, the other prisoners acted as if they didn't see her.
Brandon looked at her carefully. The woman's figure couldn't be seen because of her loose prison uniform, but it must be pretty good.
As for her face, he was so stunned that he didn't know how to describe it.
He only felt that even if he gathered all the adjectives for beauty in the world, it wouldn't even compare to one-thousandth of this woman in black.
Without waiting for Brandon to guess the woman's identity, the prison's speakers made another announcement. "All prisoners, please line up and go to the dining hall."
As soon as the voice finished speaking, Brandon saw all the prisoners turn left at the same time and head towards the dining hall.
Interestingly, the three prisoners who lived on the sixth floor with Brandon each led a group of prisoners to the dining hall in an orderly manner.
But what made Brandon feel strange was...
There were also some prisoners who stood still and were all looking at him!
In their eyes, there was actually...there was actually reverence?!
What was going on?
Brandon was completely confused by the scene in front of him. He didn't know what to make of it.
But he understood the meaning from the eyes of these older prisoners.
'Let me take the lead? Why?! I am clearly just a new prisoner. Why did these older prisoners want me to take the lead when they went to the restaurant?!' Brandon thought.
Recalling that the other three teams lived on the same floor as him, he had an inkling of the situation.
Could it be that the prisoners on the higher floors were the leaders?
Brandon concluded that it was just a strange rule in this prison. So, he suppressed the anxiety in his heart and started to take the lead.
Throughout the whole process, the prisoners in the four teams did not make any unusual movements. No one cut the queue, no one left the line, and no one even spoke. Everything proceeded smoothly like a computer program.
As Brandon expected, the food in the restaurant was luxurious to the point of being extravagant.
He was sure that even a five-star hotel chef would feel ashamed if he saw the food here.
Once the meal was served, the order was broken again.
Once again, Brandon could clearly feel the hostility in the eyes of the three prisoners on the same floor as him.
His heart tightened, and he quickly walked toward the woman in black.
Looking at Brandon's actions, the three people on the same floor as him suddenly realized what he wanted to do. They were both surprised and enlightened.
As expected!
How could an 18-year-old S-class superhuman be arrested by ordinary police officers?!
The reason why he was in this prison was because of that woman, wasn't it?
With that thought, their hostility toward Brandon lessened a little.
Brandon, who now stood opposite the woman in black, asked, "Excuse me, miss, may I have breakfast with you?"
As soon as he said that.
The square fell silent, and everyone's expressions became very interesting. No one had expected that Brandon's first words to that woman would be like this!
