There were many computers in the control room, many displays, and at least a dozen guards.
It was an era of automation and electronics, and the control room was the neural center of the prison. All the switches for the cell doors were controlled here, and all the footage captured by the cameras was displayed here. If an inmate made any kind of move, the control room could detect it instantly and then respond and command instantly.
In theory, this critical place known as the control room should never allow anyone other than the staff to enter, let alone a prisoner, but Yang Yi had just walked in.
Pelican Bay Prison was, after all, the highest-security prison in the whole of the United States. However, it was those guards who directly dealt with the prisoners in the cells who were always on edge, fearing an unexpected incident. Here, in the control room of the administrative building, if the guards had to work in a constant state of anxiety, that would indeed be ridiculous.
