Thud!

"Now, the court has officially announced that Li Zhuo's crime is manslaughter, and he is sentenced to five years in prison. The place of his sentence is Section S of Sargos Prison!"

As the sound of the gavel hitting the table rang out, the judge wearing a white wig gave the final verdict.

Li Zhuo's defense lawyer's face turned red. He stood up from his seat in excitement and protested, "I object. I think this verdict is too hasty. There are still many suspicious points in the case. The defendant clearly..."

"Silence. Objection is invalid!"

Before the lawyer could finish his sentence, the gavel hit the table in front of the judge again.

"Defense lawyer, please take note that the final verdict has been handed down! If you continue to make a racket here, I can sue you for disturbing the order of the court!"

As the half-threat, half-warning words were spoken, the agitated lawyer finally calmed down. He sat back down on his chair, feeling weak.

The whole process of the verdict seemed to have been planned in advance. Without any further hiccups, it all came to an end according to procedure.

As for Li Zhuo, who was standing in the defendant's position, did not say a word throughout the entire process. He looked coldly at the farce in front of him that proclaimed to be 'justice'.

Li Zhuo had known all along. Someone had forcefully pinned the crime of manslaughter on him. However, he did not have any ability to resist.

He was just a student who had just come of age. His parents had died in an accident when he was young.

He had no one to rely on, so he could only silently accept the 'truth' of his manslaughter.

In Li Zhuo's view, in the entire court, it seemed that the only righteous person was the lawyer who was willing to defend him for free.

However, in this court, 'justice' seemed so insignificant and powerless.

The lawyer adjusted his glasses, which were slightly slanted from his agitation agitated. He walked over dejectedly.

However, two security guards beside the dock stopped the lawyer before he could get closer to Li Zhuo.

The lawyer stopped in his tracks and looked at Li Zhuo helplessly from between the two security guards.

"I'm sorry, I really didn't expect things to turn out like this."

Li Zhuo frowned slightly when he heard this. Li Zhuo was already very touched that this lawyer was willing to defend him for free. He did not expect the lawyer to blame himself like this.

Li Zhuo looked at the lawyer. "Mr. Smith, you don't have to apologize."

"I should be the one thanking you for being willing to defend me for free. As for serving five years... at least they didn't end my life."

Li Zhuo was clearly the one who was was wrong, but now it was Li Zhuo who was comforting the lawyer. This scene seemed a little strange.

However, Smith shook his head and revealed an extremely serious expression.

"I'm not apologizing for the defense, but for the failure of the final objection."

Hearing this, Li Zhuo did not understand what Smith meant, and he revealed a puzzled look.

However, in the next moment, Smith's expression changed from a seriousness to one of fear.

"Section S of Sargos Prison... I'm afraid you won't be able to survive there.

"You're just an ordinary student, so it's normal that you don't know, but our industry has some understanding of the situation there."

"That place is called... the most dangerous prison in history!"

The... Most dangerous prison in history?

The security personnel grabbed both of Li Zhuo's arms at the same time and brought him out of the courtroom.

As this was not a public trial, there were no observers. When the jury and clerks left their seats, only Li Zhuo's defense lawyer, Mr. Smith, and the judge were left in the courtroom.

The courtroom immediately fell into silence.

Soon, the judge looked at Smith's back and nodded in satisfaction.

"Well done, Smith."

The two people who had been at loggerheads a moment ago were surprisingly harmonious now.

Smith slowly turned around and adjusted his glasses with his index finger. He revealed a smug smile. "Naturally, I will handle the matter that you have entrusted to me."

"That silly boy probably thought that I was helping him."

"I really don't know what kind of big shot that student offended to send him to Section S of Sargos Prison."

"That's not something you should be thinking about." The judge's expression immediately returned to indifference, and the smug Smith became cautious.

"Have you said what I asked you to say to him?"

"Don't worry, I've done as you asked."

...

The sturdy prison bus escorted Li Zhuo through the bustling city and sent the young man to a remote location in the suburbs.

After Li Zhuo got off the bus, he looked at the huge Sargos Prison in front of him without saying a word.

This prison was even taller than he had imagined.

Looking at the metal walls that were dozens of meters tall, the words 'steel fortress' came to in Li Zhuo's mind.

As a student, he had no idea that there were prisons of this size in the world. However, he still remembered the words of Mr. Smith, the lawyer.

It was called the most dangerous prison in history!
