Chapter 156 - 155: The Surprise Comes Very Fiercely
Yang Yi was struggling to keep up the tough facade; he could only use bluff to intimidate others. But once the bluff was called out, it meant more than just losing face.
Being exposed could be deadly.
Yang Yi pondered for a long time. If possible, he wanted to take Brian, Gweil, and Hank with him, but Rodriguez made him hesitate.
There was no denying that Rodriguez was a good underling. Yang Yi really wanted to bring him along for the escape, but Rodriguez wasn’t much use.
It was a harsh reality, but Yang Yi wasn’t running a charity. Besides, getting Rodriguez out might not actually be better for him than staying in prison. Frankly, Rodriguez could probably survive quite well in jail, whereas following Yang Yi out could get him killed right after the escape.
As Yang Yi was struggling with the decision to include Rodriguez or not, he didn’t dwell on it for too long. He felt it was too presumptuous to think about this when their escape wasn’t even certain.
One benefit of prison life, if it could be called that, was the routine of regular meals: breakfast was followed by lunch, and lunch by dinner.
During dinner, Hank sat down beside Yang Yi and nudged him with his elbow. Then he quickly placed something into Yang Yi’s hand under the table.
It was a cell phone, evident from a single squeeze.
Yang Yi was surprised because the day wasn’t over yet, and Hank had already procured a cell phone. He was incredulous but also pleasantly shocked by the swift acquisition.
