Night came slowly.The prison didn’t sleep—It just grew quieter.Dim lights flickered along the corridors, guards rotated in steady patterns, and the distant echoes of metal doors became less frequent.Inside the cell—Lucas sat still on his bunk.Across from him, the quiet inmate finally moved again.He stood up, stretching slightly like nothing unusual was about to happen.Then he walked over.“No sudden movements,” he said under his breath.Lucas nodded faintly.“I’m listening.”The man crouched slightly beside him, his voice low enough that no one else could hear.“The route starts here.”Lucas frowned.“…Here?”The man tapped lightly against the wall beside Lucas’s bunk.“There’s a maintenance panel behind this section.”Lucas’s eyes narrowed.“I didn’t see anything.”“You’re not supposed to.”A slight smirk.“It’s sealed from the outside, but loose from this side.”Lucas glanced at the wall again.“…And then?”The man continued.“Once we open it, there’s a narrow passage.

Authorities confirm that two of the escapees were shot dead during pursuit. Three individuals, including Brown, remain at large.”The screen shifted, displaying the blurred but distinct faces of the two other fugitives still missing.“Pol
