Consume 400,000 fireworks sticks and upgrade South Hinckley Underground Prison to level 3.

In addition to being indestructible, prisons after level 3 have doubled in size and their internal security levels have been improved. Each door has a separate switch system - there will no longer be the weird situation of hacking into the central control system and releasing all the criminals with one click like in Arkham Asylum.

The underground expanded under the slight earthquake and at the same time slightly increased in height. The roots of the street tree next to Weiwei extended farther. It was attached to the glass ceiling, and its roots were like a net, drilling through the gaps in the glass.

Weiwei looked to the end, and a guy who was eating a sandwich looked down at the expanded prison that suddenly appeared under his feet, and threw another bag of sandwich over to her.

She took it but didn't eat it. Instead, she spent 800,000 to upgrade it to level 4.

The lv4 prison has more internal functional buildings, such as exercise areas and workshops. The workshop has a special effect. If the criminals are driven into this room, they will work obediently as required. However, they are only limited to the interior of the room and must strictly abide by the eight-hour work system.

Upgrading to level 5 requires 1.6 million firework sticks, so Weiwei still has to save some.

After the upgrade, the map was expanded and the original entrance and exit were abandoned. Now, looking over there, three or five public toilets are closely connected, just like the trees, located directly above the glass ceiling of the prison.

The edge of the prison is an upgraded functional building with parking spaces reserved for the prison guards who come to work. At the end of the parking spaces are two rows of elevators with three floors.

Vivi and Jason entered the elevator one after another. The outer shell of the elevator was heavy, but the interior was particularly wide, similar to the elevators in a hospital. This was to facilitate the transportation of criminals with limited mobility and corpses.

Jason glanced at the buttons: "The first floor is where we are, the negative first floor is the prison room, what is the negative second floor?"

Weiwei pressed minus two: "You'll know after you take a look."

The elevator arrived at the station quickly, and as soon as they stepped out, they saw a map posted in the corridor.

The second floor below ground consists of the warden's office, the monitoring room, the morgue, the staff lounge, the library, and the ventilation patio.

The negative level contains cells, workshops, small classrooms and a mixed canteen.

The most outrageous thing is that there is also a map on the ground floor, which includes parking lots, bus stops, public toilets and ornamental trees (colorful street trees).

There is also light on the second underground floor. The light comes from the patio where the prisoners go for fresh air. This second-floor patio is six meters high and has smooth walls, making it impossible to escape directly by climbing. Even if you climb to the top, the prisoners will find that the top is covered with a spliced ​​glass ceiling, which is ordinary glass and cannot be destroyed in any way.

The two walked through here and came to the basement level.

The light here is brighter, Poison Ivy will definitely like it.

The town of South Hinckley is located on an island. Although there is never any sunlight, the prison is located deep in the forest and can often enjoy the sunlight at dawn, which is much better than the gloomy atmosphere of Arkham.

"It's pretty soundproof in here," Jason said.

The only sounds that could be heard in the entire space were their footsteps. Even if it rained heavily, the prisoners here would not be unable to sleep because of the noise... Even if the people from the Human Rights Protection Association had seen the environment, they could not say that the prisoners were tortured in the prison. They turned around the corridor in front of them, and Jason paused slightly.

The cells here were of the one-sided glass style, or rather double-sided - the top and the side facing the corridor were railings and glass. There was a place to deliver food. He stood outside the cell and saw a pitch-black miniature city of Gotham in the central room of this floor.

Weiwei pressed the blue button on the right side of the cell, and the fingerprint was successfully identified. In an instant, the glass door turned into a misty state, and then disappeared completely. She stretched out her hand and passed through the place where the glass was originally.

"To actually open this door, one must control the machine in the monitoring room and obtain the warden's iris authentication approval. Is this a high-tech method of detention?"

"Arkham is pretty high-tech," Jason stared at the city in front of him, "but they can always find a way to escape."

"I've heard about it," Weiwei began to count on her fingers, "hacking into Arkham's computer system, colluding with the men outside the prison, hypnotizing the staff to get the keys, kidnapping the doctors to get weapons when they leave the room for treatment, or simply having problems with internal governance and releasing the criminals... Some of them have ways to escape, but our detention methods have been upgraded."

Weiwei said calmly: "If you want to escape from here, you must hack into the machine in the monitoring room, but that machine is single-threaded and not connected to the Internet. You know how difficult it is to break the walls here. The only feasible way is to control the warden's mind and release the criminals-"

"What do you think?" Weiwei said, "Warden?"

In the miniature city, only the miniature trees are glowing, and many little people are gathered around the trees. This is why Weiwei planted colorful trees right above them. She has observed that after being tortured, these people probably regard the only glowing trees in the dark city as their "spiritual sustenance." There are already problems with their psychology. If they see the trees when they are released from the city, they will probably be more obedient?

She didn't know either, after all, she hadn't been locked up in a dark environment for more than half a month.

Jason Red Hood Todd said, "I didn't get into the police academy."

He is already a criminal and has no right to be a legitimate gun owner.

Dick Grayson might be a better fit.

Even now, Jason still thought Weiwei's arrangement was outrageous. When everyone else was leaving, she stopped him and asked, "Are you going to watch over Xiao Chou?"

——He could only kill Xiao Chou.

"It doesn't matter," the girl said. "If he chooses to escape, the prison guards have the right to kill him on the spot, but what if he fails to escape?"

She smiled her usual smile. "What if he can't escape from prison under your supervision? Will you still kill him? And if you agree to take care of him... then his escape is your responsibility."

"Accept it or not?" she asked.

Jason didn't say he accepted, nor did he say he didn't accept, but Vivi seemed to have the answer in her eyes, so she went on humming a song, only telling Jason to "wait a little longer" and "it's not the right time."

"I didn't get into the School of Political Science and Law, but now I'm the mayor," Weiwei said frankly. When players hire NPCs, they always look at their abilities rather than their academic qualifications, but Jason's words seemed to give her the opportunity to "bargain." She said, "You can use your original identity or create a fake one, there is no difference. You don't have to be the warden either. Our prison is not open to the public and only accepts super criminals."

"Arkham also accepts those criminals," he frowned, "all of these prisoners have a grudge against me."

"Arkham also accepts mental patients," Weiwei said, "It was originally a private nursing home rather than a prison. Arkham was destroyed in the last explosion and is now being rebuilt. After the reconstruction is completed, the original mental patients will be transferred there. The doctors there are still good. Blackgate Prison accepts super criminals such as Black Mask and Penguin. They are mentally normal, but putting them in Blackgate Prison will only cause trouble-"

She thought of the several jailbreaks recorded in Black Mask's prison records and waved her hands: "Anyway, I don't think Black Mask can get Chou to hand him the wrench to dig the tunnel."

Jason: ...Black Mask can't dig tunnels.

Every time Weiwei mentioned "Xiao Chou", a nameless anger burned in his heart. He knew that Xiao Chou was in the small city a few meters away. He was sure that as long as Xiao Chou appeared in front of him, he would shoot him in the head, then the agreement between him and Weiwei would be invalid from the beginning, and he would be locked up in this cell in place of Xiao Chou as a murderer.

He said it subconsciously, but was slapped on the back by the girl. The girl patted his back in a familiar manner - she might have wanted to pat his shoulder but missed: "You think too much, you are already a murderer, you have killed many people! Killers in the Middle East, terrorists on the battlefield, gang leaders... drug dealers in Gotham..."

She counted them off one by one and said calmly, "They are not good people, but you did break the law."

Jason still had that fake face on. He turned his head and stared into Weiwei's green eyes: "...I will kill more people next."

He wasn't joking or swearing, it was just that the thought suddenly popped into his mind and he said it out loud naturally.

"Gotan will be sentenced to death." said the girl.

“Even if there’s the death penalty in Gothenburg,” he said, “other places, other cities—”

Jason swallowed the rest of his sentence.

He remembered the battlefield in the Middle East, staring up at his child, half-naked, sleeping among bombs. He killed people and left in a daze. The wind and sand covered the bloodstains and the suffering in those invisible places. He returned to Gotham and went directly to the East District, where he was born and grew up in Crime Alley. Crime Alley left a mark on him that exceeded Batman's training... Jason wanted to change the city of Gotham in his own way, but when he came back he found that he was one step behind.

He crawled out of hell, supported by the killing of Xiao Chou and Ge Tan. So what happened after that?

He didn't think about what to do next.

He didn't feel like he was really alive.

Weiwei poked him, then pressed a button, the glass reappeared, and then she sighed.

"If you accept this job, you'll have to start right away," she clasped her hands together, looking worried. "These guys don't need to eat or excrete in their miniature goblin--"

It also provides a fear value.

"But after they are released, they will return to their original state," although their mental state cannot be restored, Weiwei thought, she continued, "We need prison guards, chefs, cleaners, psychologists, teachers... and they need to sign a confidentiality agreement to ensure that they will not disclose the news of this prison."

She looked toward the center of South Hinckley and hinted, "If word gets out that this town is holding a little chou...what do you think of the economy of the island?"

If the news leaks out, South Hinckley will be doomed.

Jason: “…” Then don’t lock up Xiao Chou here!

Although the chance of Chou escaping from this prison is lower than other prisons due to the special building, and the three prisons in Gotham can be functionally separated, this means that if the plan in South Hinckley Town goes wrong, the problem will fall on Jason, the warden.

...even though Jason didn't have to take any responsibility at the time.

But damn, if this happens, can he feel at ease?

For the third time, Jason Todd felt that Vicki White was shameless enough.

He looked at the miniature city again, and suddenly an idea came to him: "Wait, if the magic cast on it is lifted, these people will return to their original state, then they..."

Will they all be locked up in this cell?

"How many of them are there?"

"Three hundred?" Weiwei said, "Not much difference."

Jason looked up and fell silent.

Even the largest cell cannot hold 300 people at the same time. Even if the gaps in the ceiling are taken into account, only a little over 100 people can be locked up even if people are packed together. And by then, it is very likely that Chou's face will be pressed against the glass, Black Mask's feet will be stepping on Two-Face's face, and Scarecrow will be pressed into the corner... The point is not this bizarre scene, but where the remaining 200 people should be squeezed.

He grabbed Weiwei who was trying to run away and said, "Don't even think about leaving. Let me solve this problem!"
