Chapter 117
Yan and the Chief Instructor followed the guard, their footsteps echoing down the corridor to the visitation room. Unlike the grim cells, this room was surprisingly tidy, with iron chairs and tables neatly arranged, and a row of potted plants that seemed out of place in a prison setting.
“Your visitor will be here shortly, so no funny business—just sit tight,” the guard said with a cold warning before vanishing from sight.
The Chief Instructor tilted his head in confusion at the unexpected visit. “Is it the Crown Prince who has come to see us?”
“No, it’s someone I’ve called for,” Yan replied.
“You did?” The Chief Instructor frowned, but then a smirk crossed his face as he remembered Yan’s mention of a ‘joker card’ the day before. “It seems the letter I asked Sir Kyle to send has reached its destination.”
“Indeed.”
“Now might be a good time to reveal this joker card of yours.”
“You’ll find out soon enough.”
Yan shrugged off the question with a nonchalant lift of his shoulders, eliciting a chuckle from the Chief Instructor. It was hard to believe this was the same person who had once obeyed his every command.
‘I’ll play along with your tune for now.’
But the moment Yan’s plan went awry, he would take control. Before being dragged to Fargo Prison, he had given orders to some senior instructors to prepare for an escape should the situation call for it. Even now, they would be analyzing the prison’s layout.
