What happened to Isaac?

Chapter 10 What Happened to Isaac's Troubled Day

The next day, Isaac fell asleep in the infirmary for a while, until another prison guard came in to wake him up and informed him that he didn’t need to go back to the confinement room, but he would start working today—doing transport Workers, move the anvil to the factory, and then come back to pick up the next batch, and the cycle repeats.

There were many guards along the road, punching and kicking at every turn, making all the newcomers terrified, but Isaac was not among the terrified people, and no one came to provoke him.He didn't bother to think about whether he became famous in the first battle or not, he just devoted himself to thinking about the piece of paper that he burned.In fact, there is only one sentence on it: "Put the key in the right pocket."

Perhaps some intermediary of thieves would come and fumble it away, but what was he going to do in such a loose line and under the watchful eye of so many guards?Isaac, who was also very good at stealing, couldn't help being curious.It's a pity that there was no movement for the next few days, until the confinement of the solo horn was over, and the opportunity hit the door by itself.

On this day, Xavier received a notice that a household light-emitting diode with a weird temperament appeared in his jurisdiction.This thing was probably dropped by some dork during the interstellar jump, and anyway, it should have appeared in the 60s at the earliest, and now it has to be dealt with.

Xavier first contacted an organization called the SCP Foundation to send a special person to contain the object, and then, since he himself was also present, Xavier urgently changed into a formal suit, pinched some hairspray to smear his bangs, and put on his thin-rimmed glasses , bent down to polish his shoes, and transformed into a well-dressed civil servant of the heavens.After making sure that such attire would not be picked on by passing leaders, he immediately set off for the crime scene.

……

After dealing with this trivial matter, Xavier returned to the prison, and it was time for the prisoners to move freely.Some prisoners were playing ball in the small square. Xavier saw Isaac sitting on the stairs basking in the sun at a glance, with his head bowed, and he was about to fall asleep.Xavier suddenly thought: Damn, why is he so leisurely?

So he walked up to Isaac in two or three steps, and woke up the drowsy succubus: "Hey, Isaac."

Isaac's drowsiness was suddenly driven away, he raised his eyes, stared at Xavier with strange eyes for a while, stood up without a word, climbed over the railing, jumped down and left.

A move that is too inexplicable will appear mysterious. Xavier stood where he was, and it took a while to recover.He turned his head and saw Isaac sitting down in another place, dozing off.

However, before Isaac fell asleep for a few minutes, he was called up by a servant, saying that he wanted to send all the dirty clothes of the prisoners to the laundry room.

Xavier leaned against the wall with his arms folded, seeing Isaac get up cursing, his mood was surprisingly bright.At this time, Isaac who was taken away took two steps, turned his head suddenly, squinted his eyes to look at him, and did not look back until he was urged to leave.

Xavier touched his hair subconsciously - it's not messy.Does something look wrong?

**

Isaac was holding a large basket of dirty clothes, and the various strange smells inside made him sneeze.There was a small man behind him, who suddenly screamed as he was walking, bumped into him from the right, and fell to the ground. Isaac knocked over his clothes and turned around and cursed.

Immediately afterwards, the little man was kicked by the servant, and he was not angry. He got up and helped Isaac pack his clothes. Their hands briefly touched under the cover of the clothes, and there was no exchange between them.When Isaac picked up the basket again and continued walking, he was holding a small box of matches in his hand, and the key was no longer in his pocket.

While eating dinner, Dujiao was sitting in the old place. As soon as Isaac stepped in and met Dujiao's eyes, the noisy restaurant suddenly became quiet for a moment.

When the prison guard saw him, he slammed his club against the wall in warning. He shrugged his shoulders while holding the dinner plate, but when he passed by that table, he deliberately bumped the unicorn hard on the shoulder.Before the one-horn could attack, two prison guards rushed forward and knocked Isaac to the ground. The prisoners sitting far away could only hear the muffled sound of being beaten with sticks.Immediately afterwards, he was picked up and escorted back to the cell. The bread rolled on the ground and no one picked it up.

Isaac struggled to look back, the face of the one-horned face was full of wind and rain, the hand on the table was tightly clenched, and the veins were bulging; the hand under the table seemed to caress the pocket inadvertently, and the two fingers outlined a square outline .

"What are you looking at!" Isaac received a heavy slap on the back of the head and was pushed away staggeringly.He spat, and frequently glanced at the guy who slapped him out of the corner of his eye, his gaze was gloomy.At this time, the brand mark under the ear scalded him like a warning.

**

When Isaac was kicked into the cell, only the mixed-race young man sentenced to death sat on the bed in a daze.

Because they slept on bunk beds, the two got to know each other very well during this period, and he asked Isaac to call him "Yu" directly because his full name was difficult to pronounce.

"It's really you." Yu said.Isaac laughed twice, climbed onto the bed, and lay down.

In less than 2 minutes, someone knocked on the bed board behind him, and Yu asked, "Are you bored?"

Isaac poked out half of his head from the upper bunk: "I'm so bored. Do you have anything interesting?"

"Yes, give me a coin."

Prisoners are not allowed to keep coins privately, because they can be ground into sharp weapons and poke other people's eyeballs, which are dangerous goods.

"I didn't," Isaac said.

Yu knocked hard on the bed board: "Come on, man. You can't fool me, I saw you cut the unicorn's face."

Damn, those are my nails.Isaac thought, but said, "Okay." He asked if sixpence would work?Yu said yes.So he reached into his empty pocket, and two seconds later, he threw down a sixpence and said, let me see what the hell you're doing, it's interesting and I'll give you the sixpence.

Yu weighed the coin in his hand, and then did a trick for Isaac.He tossed the coin twice like a clown, then clenched his fists and asked Isaac to guess which side the coin is now. Isaac pondered for a while and said, "The right side." Yu spread out his hands and turned them over to him Look, there's nothing; Isaac swindled to break his left hand, and there was nothing in his left hand either. "You threw it away," he said, but Yu laughed and flicked his wrist in front of Isaac, holding the lost sixpence between his index and middle fingers, in his right hand.

"You think I don't know," Isaac laughed. "Push the coin through the gap between your middle finger and ring finger before you spread your right hand upwards, so that you can't see it from the front. Well, let me continue." ?"

Yu made a gesture of surrender, but he obviously had no intention of paying back the money, so he changed the topic casually: "You haven't had dinner yet, have you? I'll give you something to eat." Isaac didn't care, and took a small piece of money from Yu. Bread, didn't ask too much, he knew that the prison would treat death row prisoners a little bit.

"Hey, Isaac," Yu said suddenly after being silent for a while, "You seem to seldom drink tea."

"You call that tea?"

"It's probably the warden's bathwater, too."

"Bastard, shut up!"

"Pfft," Yu laughed, "Do you want to have something good?"

"Huh?" Isaac raised one eyelid and looked at him excitedly.

"Jack Daniels."

"Fuck!" Isaac was taken aback, then lowered his voice, "Where did you get it?"

"There's a whole bottle."

The boards on the top bunk creaked and creaked. It was a difficult decision.Soon, Isaac poked his head out from the upper bunk again and asked, "...what do you need from me?"

"Can't it be that I like you?" Hearing Isaac's contemptuous laughter, Yu said frankly, "The unicorn is the most powerful here, but you can equal him. I have many enemies, and I want you to often Come and help me."

"Okay," Isaac agreed, "this is easy to solve."

"While there is no one here." Yu grinned and waved at him, and Isaac quickly slipped down from the upper bunk.

The bed for the two of them was at the corner, and Yu reached into the gap between the head of the bed and the wall for a while to dig out, the glass and the iron railing rattled, but he didn't see him bring up the wine bottle.Seeing that Isaac was waiting impatiently, Yu said, "Don't stand still, come and help pull the iron fence at the head of the bed, it's stuck."

As soon as Isaac leaned over his upper body, Yu suddenly withdrew his hand, the glass bottle shattered on the ground, and the pungent smell exploded instantly——

"Crack!"

Xavier was originally calmly wiping the reagent bottle in the infirmary, but suddenly, a mark similar to Isaac's on the three fingers below his ear suddenly became hot.With a shake of his hand, he knocked over a bottle of medical alcohol, and the high-concentration alcohol instantly gave off a pungent smell.

……etc.The whole bottle of ether on the side of the alcohol is gone.

The wet gauze covered his mouth and nose, and the rest of his fingers clasped Isaac's cheekbones tightly, as if trying to embed them alive. Isaac immediately struggled, but because of his improper posture, he lost his balance instantly.During the whole process, apart from the initial crisp sound, there was no special movement. The gauze covering his face moved weakly a few times. Isaac gradually withdrew his strength and fell down next to Yu's palm, listening in a daze. To the man's suppressed laughter.

"You'll regret not saying hello to me the first time we met, Isaac."
