Chapter 195

In recent days, the cells in the juvenile detention center had all been opened. Those who were previously controlled by Jareth and his group were also freed.

Assigned to cook, the youths nervously looked around the prison, now empty of guards and instructors. Their hearts weighed down with fear as they worried about making mistakes.

Yet that evening, the tired boys, weary from setting up the electric fence, still managed to find trouble.

“You can’t even wash the dishes properly? They’re all sticky”

“You want me to eat this terrible thing?”

Quinlyn smiled but didn’t respond. Meanwhile, the adults looked worried.

After three days of hard work, the electric fence was finally finished. The moment the power was turned on, the youths burst into cheers, celebrating their success.

But then, standing behind them, Quinlyn pulled out an electric baton. The sound of the baton hitting flesh went mostly unnoticed until five or six of them collapsed, which made the others realize what was happening.

They asked, “Damn it. Quinlyn, what are you doing?”

“Cleaning house,” she said coolly. Without hesitation, Quinlyn wielded the baton expertly. Even the elite soldiers from the 901 Military Base would struggle against her, let alone this group of moderately strong boys.

“Stop!” they cried out. Instantly, the cheers turned into screams of despair. The electric batons crackled as they knocked out more people.
