"If you violate the social code, you will be sent to prison, and if you violate the prison code, you will be sent to Yakala. Unlike other prisons in the United States, each prisoner will be held in a separate room. Prison cell. And the current warden boasts that he is different from his predecessors Jonson and Blackwell. There is no code of conduct, no prisoner committee, prisoners must obey his orders, and it is forbidden to read newspapers, magazines or discuss current affairs. The prison authorities conveyed that work is not assigned, but fought for.” Frank Lee Morris, who had just been transferred to Yakala Prison, was summoned by the warden to give a lecture. The warden's long-winded remarks had only one meaning. There is no rule of law here, only rule of man. The warden said everything alone. Calculate. In the end, the warden smugly declared that "we can't teach good citizens, but we can train good prisoners." The words of the warden's killing power stemmed from the legendary experience of Morris's repeated escape from prison and the evaluation of him in the archives: he was extremely intelligent. Morris returned the warden impolitely, and before leaving the door, he took the nail clipper that the warden had just used.
Human society has always followed the law of the jungle in the animal world, and the prisoners in the prison adhere to the rule of bullying to balance and maintain their relationship with each other. The big Wolf is a brainless idiot. He didn't fully understand before provoking Morris. A relative who has nothing to worry about outside, but has escaped from prison several times. There is only one explanation. Play, it must be a master of both wisdom and courage to do this. As a result, Wolf teased Morris in the bathroom and was beaten up and honest.
This matter quickly spread to Akara, and Morris, who had just arrived, became famous all of a sudden. The prison authorities arranged for Morris to go to the library to deliver books to the cell. It turns out that this is how good jobs are won. There are many benefits of sending books. You can take the opportunity to learn about the interests and hobbies of the inmates, and you can make friends widely. You must know that people gather in groups, and autism is a big taboo for people. One of the biggest benefits of delivering books is that you can move around freely in the prison. For Morris, he is simply dozing off and sending a pillow is very satisfying.
Friends are based on feeling and time. Inglis, a black librarian who was sentenced to 99 years in prison for killing two white men, should be the first friend Morris made. The inmate in the first cell was a racist, and Morris ignored him when he tried to provoke Morris and Inglis. The prisoners in the second cell ignored Morris at all, circling around with their heads down, probably going crazy. The prisoner in the third room was enthusiastic like a salesman. He introduced himself as Baggs. He hadn't seen a newcomer for half a year. When Morris saw a prisoner named Doc in the yard drawing with a drawing board, Doc took the initiative to remind Morris to beware of the retaliation of the big Wolf.
The head of black prisoners told Morris how the prison built on the rock of the isolated island was indestructible, strictly managed, and counted twelve times a day. "Sometimes I feel that the only thing for people in this ghost place is to count, the number of prisoners. In life, the guards count the prisoners, and the warden counts the counts." Listening to the incisive summary of the black leader, and looking at his sad face, he didn't make the audience cry, but made people laugh all of a sudden, where did you find it? Such a living treasure.
The guard gave Morris another job in the carpentry, a fixed job with pay for fifteen cents an hour. The inmate told Morris that there might be a way out if he wanted to escape. It's right above your head, which is the ventilation duct upstairs in the cell, and the guard has the key to the top of the building. Wolf attacked Morris in the yard while the wind was blowing. Morris, who had been prepared for a long time, fought back hard. As a result, both of them were locked in the D area where everyone talked about it. It turned out that the D area was a smaller and empty small room. In the dark room, the high-pressure water gun stabs you all over your body with cold water. Once the door is closed, you can urinate and urinate anywhere. When the door is opened again, Morris, who is stimulated by the strong light outside, covers his eyes. When Morris returned to the ordinary cell, the cellmate Litmas, who was inseparable from the mouse, sent blessings in time with his pet.
The warden accidentally discovered that Doc was stealing a picture for him, and felt offended, but he revoked Doc's painting license through the deputy warden. Nian chopped off three of his own fingers and protested with self-mutilation. Where there is oppression, there is resistance, and the bloody scene makes Morris determined to avenge the warden on behalf of Doc. While eating at the restaurant, Morris accidentally met the Anglin brothers. The two brothers were as smart as Morris and had a hobby. They both liked jailbreaking.
Morris found that the supposedly rock-solid prison was a misnomer. It was in disrepair and dilapidated. The damp air corroded the concrete, the salt rusted the metal, and a nail clipper could be used to pry around the cell's iron bars. open. Rigorous thinking, careful layout, and the perfect plan made Morris a hit with his neighbors, Charlie Butts and the Anglin brothers. A long-lasting and huge excavation project has just kicked off. This is really a big competition of will and endurance. Coupled with the cooperation of a wide range of contacts, there are many whimsical little inventions, and of course there are also pig teammates. The miss caused by the error point. If the job of delivering books is to deliver pillows when you are drowsy, then the job of the carpentry room is to deliver tea when you are thirsty. The woodworking room has all the tools. The difficulty is how to get it out through the metal detector, which depends on your IQ, Morris. Made two metal clips, one was deliberately found and confiscated, and was scolded by the guards because you were stupid, and the other was hidden in the sole and brought out safely. I don't know who is really stupid.
The warden ruthlessly smashed a small chrysanthemum on the dining table, causing Litmas to become emotional and suddenly died of a heart attack, because it was the sustenance of his soul, which was ruthlessly destroyed by the warden, and the warden owed money again. a blood debt. "Goodbye, brother." "Farewell, kid." On the day they were about to escape from prison, Maurice and Inglis sympathized with each other and said goodbye to each other silently. There were still a few hours before the escape. The warden must have smelled something unusual and suddenly brought someone to the ward. They carefully checked Morris' bed and bedding, and the box where the accordion was placed. over walls and iron fences. The warden, who got nothing, arranged for Morris's room to be changed, and the time was set for the next morning of his escape. It was really time-hungry and there was no way out.
But he was busy adding to the chaos. Wolf, who had been in the dark prison in Area D for six months, came back and threatened to settle the account with Morris at dinner. It was a blessing or a curse. After dinner, Wolf secretly took the knife handed over by his accomplice and walked towards Morris. No matter how the two ended, Morris's escape plan would fall short. At a critical moment, the black head dragged Wolf halfway to the black prisoner's territory, and the crisis was resolved at once. This is called the help of the nobles. At a critical moment, Butts backed away from the battle, and finally mustered up his courage, but finally gave up because he couldn't get to the duct vent alone. The guard passed by Morris's cell several times throughout the night, and once bent down to look closely at the fake head for a long time, but did not see any flaws. Although the escape process of the two brothers Morris and Anglin was carefully arranged, it was also full of dangers and dangers. Fortunately, there were no dangers in the end.
The seaside this morning was very lively, with police and police dogs all over the mountains and plains, warships cruising in the sea not far from the island, speedboats shuttled, and frogmen kept diving into the sea to search, but found nothing. Before going to Washington, the warden picked up a small yellow chrysanthemum on a rock by the sea. He seemed to think of something? This yellow chrysanthemum was exactly the same as the one he had crushed in the dining room, and the warden judged them drowned. But their bodies were never found, and less than a year later, Yakara prison was closed.
