"Hmm~ An interesting plan, I think I already understand the truth of the matter."
Shikanoin Heizou, who had been silent, nodded, a smile playing on his lips.
"You really understand?" Itto looked incredulous.
Being from Inazuma himself, Itto couldn't believe that Shikanoin Heizou could grasp the entire plan when it was being spoken in riddles. This was unfair!
"Since our listener, little friend Shikanoin Heizou, already knows the plan, why don't you explain it? I think it will be clearer than if I, the one who devised it, were to speak."
Shikanoin Heizou paced back and forth, saying, "Having the key but not escaping means that there won't necessarily be a riot within the prison."
"We have the key, which means some people will lose their keys and thus won't be able to get out. And at that time, it will inevitably be a wild carnival."
"Therefore, most of the power and attention will be focused on that, and no one will care if anyone escapes into the sewers from the female prisoner area. Am I right?"
Xavier listened with a look of astonishment, never having expected the plan to develop in this direction.
Zhongli smiled and said, "Exactly, that's the principle. When a person has been unable to exercise autonomy for a long time, but then suddenly gains freedom in a short period, they will naturally treat it as an outlet for their frustrations."
"Even if they know they will be punished afterward, they will still instigate a riot. At that time, our entire male prison will become a carnival, until it is suppressed."
"And during this period, we will have ample time to escape from room 233 and, using the time difference, escort the ladies out."
"After that, we will reach the final stage of the plan."
Xavier quickly asked, "What stage?"
"It's too early to say now. Let's talk about it when we can leave," Zhongli said with a mysterious smile, not revealing it directly.
Everyone didn't understand why Zhongli was being so secretive, but they figured it was so as not to affect everyone and prevent their attention from being scattered.
Next, as planned, the four people in 233 took turns digging.
After reaching the soil layer, their digging speed indeed increased significantly.
During the process, they inevitably encountered some underground rocks, but with Itto, who possessed terrifying strength, they could often achieve miracles through brute force.
After another three days, Itto was digging the tunnel below.
Suddenly, he felt like he had dug into something.
"Hmm? Why is this thing so hard?"
Itto felt that something was very wrong; this was much harder than the rocks he had dug before.
After clearing all the surrounding dirt, he discovered that it wasn't a rock at all, but a pipe!
This made Itto's eyes light up, indicating that he had reached the pipe area.
Immediately after, he continued digging around.
With the last scoop, the dirt surprisingly collapsed downwards.
Feeling a large void beneath his feet, Itto was overjoyed, never expecting to succeed so quickly!
What Itto didn't expect was that there was a faint light within the sewer system.
He followed the passage down, walking on the foul-smelling, damp ground.
Because there were so many pipes here, he could hear water flowing through them every two steps.
He could even occasionally hear footsteps on the ground, which seemed to be those of the patrolling prison guards.
Soon, Itto heard people talking above.
"Oh, my dear Barton, you are too rough."
"Baby, don't be afraid, no one can see us here."
"Oh my, you are as unfeeling as ever…"
Itto shivered immediately after hearing the two people's conversation.
Through their interactions during this time, he knew that the person named Barton was a prison guard.
Although he wasn't very proficient in English, he could tell from their tone and keywords that they seemed to be doing something extraordinary!
Itto clutched his head, somewhat doubting life, saying, "I knew this place wasn't for people. It's one thing for the inmates to have special fetishes, but even these prison guards…"
Itto no longer wanted to stay in this place, fearing he would go crazy if he stayed too long.
After climbing back, Itto immediately shared the news with his three roommates.
The three of them were overjoyed after hearing it and planned to tell the others when they went out for some fresh air.
When everyone heard the news, they were equally happy, and now the second phase of the plan could begin.
"Very good, I didn't expect the passage to be opened so quickly."
"Next, according to the directions on the blueprint, what we need to do first is loosen the screws of the sewer pipes near the ladies' infirmary. Then we can directly receive them."
"And the next step is to create a riot. We can take advantage of the chaos to enter the 233 cell population and leave through the pipes."
Listening to Zhongli's plan blueprint, everyone was excited, scared, and expectant.
The escape plan had reached its most critical stage, and everyone had trouble sleeping at night.
Because everyone had great doubts about Itto's ability, they specifically asked Lyney to patrol the sewer system at night.
One reason was to figure out the direction, and the other was to loosen the screws of the sewer pipes at the same time.
When Lyney had done all this and told everyone, the plan would officially begin.
On this day, everyone was eating in the cafeteria when Lyney, carrying his food tray, passed by a prison guard.
"Sorry, sir, I didn't mean to!"
Lyney "accidentally" slipped, almost falling next to the prison guard.
The prison guard glared fiercely at Lyney: "Kid, be more careful next time, or I'll get serious with you!"
He snorted and then left, not noticing that something seemed to be missing from his body.
After lunch, the inmates would be sent back to their cells and a patrol would be conducted.
When the patrol was over, the prison guard responsible for locking the doors reached for his waistband, only to find that the key was gone!
His expression changed, and he fumbled around, but he couldn't find it.
Taking advantage of this time, Lyney threw the key to the opposite cell.
This cell housed only burly inmates, each one fierce-looking and muscular.
He was stunned for a moment, then excitedly used the key to open the cell door.
"Guys, look what this is!"
He walked out of the room, shaking the key in his hand and laughing loudly.
The other inmates' eyes turned red when they saw this scene: "Quick, quick, let us out too!"
Meanwhile, the prison guard's face changed dramatically, and he roared, "You brat, quickly give me back the key!"
Of course, this big inmate wouldn't easily hand it over to the other party. Following the principle that the law doesn't punish a crowd, he even opened two other rooms in front of the prison guard.
At this point, the prison guard panicked; this group of people clearly intended to have a reckless carnival!
