At this particular time, in the cell during the night, a group of prisoners took turns using the cold shower in the bathroom.

Their motivation for queuing up for these chilly showers stemmed from Charlie’s request to do whatever they could to combat their overpowering body odor. Originally, this assembly of prisoners had been a bunch of inmates who paid little heed to personal hygiene. Moreover, they were devoid of any deodorant. A dozen of them gathered together, and when they closed their eyes, they might as well have imagined a septic tank explosion.

In this moment, Gustavo approached Charlie, his hair still damp, and with an obsequious expression asked, “Mr. Wade, did you meet with Bruce just now?”

Charlie replied coldly, “Remember, don’t inquire about things you shouldn’t.”

“Yes, yes, of course…” Gustavo nodded repeatedly, then with a worried tone continued, “Mr. Wade, I have something to ask, if it’s not too inconvenient.”

Charlie responded calmly, “Go on, tell me.”

Gustavo hurriedly began, “Mr. Wade, to be honest, I have no knowledge of the charges against you, whether there was a trial or not, and what your sentence might be. I might spend the rest of my life in this prison. If you ever manage to get out, what will become of me here? What if my wretched son decides he wants me dead? It’s only a matter of time before I meet my end in here.”

Charlie inquired curiously, “So, what do you propose? Do you want me to stay imprisoned alongside you?”

Gustavo waved his hands anxiously, “No, no, Mr. Wade, I would never presume such a thing. I just believe you possess considerable influence. Can you help me find a way out of this predicament?”

Charlie shook his head casually, remarking, “I don’t have any easy solutions. I can only guarantee your safety for one more day in this place. If I’m free tomorrow, it will signify our paths have diverged. Your future is your own concern.”

Gustavo implored with a fearful expression, “Mr. Wade, please help me brainstorm a solution. Look at my age, I can’t simply die in this prison.”

Charlie regarded him and asked with interest, “Since you’ve broached this topic, I assume you must have some preferred course of action in mind. Why don’t you share your plan, and we can assess its viability?”

Gustavo’s face lit up with hope, and he moved closer to Charlie, speaking respectfully, “Mr. Wade, here’s my proposal. I’ve thought of two plans—one more audacious and another more cautious. I’m wary of both and need your assistance.”
