Deposed Crown Prince: After three years of service on the frontier, the entire court knelt and begge

"I heard that even Da Lei didn't go in. With Mr. Ce's delicate skin and fair flesh, he must have made all the men in the prison drool..."

Hearing Xiaoyue's words, Yin Pan'er immediately understood and chuckled, "Don't worry, since Xiao Ce dares to go, he's not afraid of these things. We've only made things worse."

Once Xiao Ce and Boudica arrived at the prison, they were separated.

This prison is quite professional; they even changed everyone into the same prison uniforms.

After changing his clothes, he asked Xiao Ce to wait in a room.

After waiting for a while, someone came to open the door.

A prison guard in uniform glanced at Xiao Ce and asked, "Your name is Ce, right?"

Xiao Ce stood up and nodded.

The uniformed prison guard stepped forward and looked around.

Seeing his sneaky appearance, Xiao Ce immediately realized that this person must be one of his own.

Sure enough, the prison guard sneaked up to Xiao Ce and said, "Mr. Ce, hello, I am Kimberly, Mr. Kim's godson. My name is Charlie Kim. My godfather asked me to secretly take care of you here."

After reading what the man named Charlie Kim said, Xiao Ce replied, "Alright, then I'll trouble you."

Charlie Kim said, "Because my godfather said I can only protect you secretly and can't let anyone find out. So, I can only help you at crucial moments. I can't be discovered either."

Xiao Ce nodded: "Don't worry, I don't need your help. You just need to provide me with some information."

After listening to Xiao Ce's words, Charlie Jin nodded: "Mr. Ce, that's no problem. What information do you need? If I know, I'll tell you."

Xiao Ce nodded: "You will know that I need you to keep an eye out for anyone outside who might try to harm me. You just need to tell me who they contacted and then let me know."

Charlie Kim nodded: "That's no problem. Right now, the only information we have is from the management committee. They've told us to keep a close watch on you, saying you're serious dangerous elements."

Xiao Ce smiled and said, "Alright! So, will I be in a single cell?"

Charlie Kim shook his head: "That's definitely impossible. These are all large cells. Each cell holds twenty people, and your cell is full of serious offenders. You still need to be careful..."

Charlie Kim glanced instinctively behind Xiao Ce.

Then they handed him a sharpened stone stick.

"Godfather, although you can handle everything, I think you still need to be aware that this isn't a simple matter..."

"I'll stay here as much as I can, shout for me and I'll come to save you... but, you know, I can't..."

Hearing Charlie Kim's hesitant expression, Xiao Ce smiled and said, "Don't worry, Charlie Kim. Since I dared to come, I'm not afraid of them. You can rest assured!"

As he spoke, he handed the sharpened stone stick to Charlie Kim.

Charlie Kim looked at Xiao Ce with some surprise: "You'll need him!"

Xiao Ce waved his fist: "My fist is my weapon. Thank you. However, I do have something I need your help with."

After hearing Xiao Ce's words, Charlie Jin was somewhat surprised: "You said..."

Xiao Ce said to Charlie Jin, "After we send out a cry for help from our cell, try to delay our arrival as much as possible. Ideally, you can pretend you didn't hear it."

When Charlie Jin heard Xiao Ce say that, he naturally guessed what Xiao Ce wanted to do.

He looked at Xiao Ce with some disbelief and said:

“Mr. Ce, in that cell, they all listen to a boss. Those are all serious criminals; their sentences won't be any lighter than yours. So, they're not afraid of death! No matter how strong you are, you can't beat 19 fearless serious criminals.”

“Because they are not afraid of death, we prison guards have to be extremely vigilant when we approach them. Are you sure you don’t want me to hear their cries for help and don’t want to come over?”

Xiao Ce smiled and said, "That's right! I'm absolutely sure, don't worry."

After listening to Xiao Ce's words, Charlie said, "The leader of the cell you're in is a pirate named Frank. At his peak, Frank controlled nearly 100,000 pirates and thousands of warships. If they hadn't driven the entire Twelve Families to desperation, they wouldn't have united and spent a fortune hiring the Lannister Navy to wipe them out."

"That Frank is a notorious criminal. Even the Lannisters took a long time to wipe them out. The Twelve Families were on his wanted list for more than three years and spent nearly a billion sols to completely destroy the Frank Pirate Group! And Frank is ruthless and a mass murderer... Even after being imprisoned here, hundreds of people have died at his hands."

Xiao Ce was still somewhat surprised after hearing Jin Charlie's words: "Hundreds of people? Someone like him wouldn't even have a chance to stay here. Those twelve families would love to kill him. Why would they spare his life?"

Charlie Kim looked around again, then said to Xiao Ce, "Of course, that's true. Initially, after the twelve families captured him, they wanted to ston him to death..."

Before Charlie Kim could finish speaking, this was the second time Xiao Ce had heard about the punishment of stone stoning.

Having heard about Xiao Ce before but not having had a chance to ask, now that she had heard about him again, she naturally didn't let the opportunity pass.

He then asked Charlie Kim, "Stoning? What is stoning?"

Charlie Kim said to Xiao Ce, "Mr. Ce, you don't even know about stone punishment?"

Xiao Ce nodded after listening to what Charlie Jin said.

Although Charlie Kim didn't quite understand, he still explained, "Actually, stoning is simply tying a person to a pillar and then letting others smash them. Of course, an iron bucket will be used to cover their head and genitals. But when stones hit the iron bucket, they make a huge noise that can cause a mental breakdown, while stones hitting other parts of the body can cause fractures, but not immediate death."

"But it is also extremely painful. Moreover, when a person is stoned, their head is covered by an iron bucket. You never know where the next stone will come from or where it will be thrown. In short, this stoning is very cruel, not only in terms of physical pain, but also in terms of mental torture."

As Xiao Ce listened to Charlie Kim's explanation, a chill ran down his spine.

Then, she subconsciously shivered and asked, "So how did Frank manage to survive?"

"Because Frank had been plundering for over a decade, he must have amassed a fortune in the hundreds of billions of Thors, even though his pirate group was destroyed. However, no one can pinpoint the whereabouts of the wealth he plundered!"

"He was tortured alive by the twelve families for months, and no one could get a single word out of him. He only said that he exchanged all the plundered wealth for tons and tons of gold, and then sank it to the bottom of the sea. But in the vast ocean, only he knew where it was. But he wouldn't say... He only said that as long as he lived, he might tell them one day when he was in a good mood. But after he died, the news would disappear completely."

"Everyone knew he was trying to save his life, but all sorts of inhuman torture and interrogation had been used, and it was no use on Frank. Frank was very stubborn. After discussing it, everyone decided that if he lived, he might reveal something someday. Dying wouldn't do them any good either."

"So, after unanimous discussion, the twelve families arrested Frank and handed him over to the court for trial... He was ultimately sentenced to 5,832 years in prison, and he was allowed to be released on bail. As long as he paid more than 500 billion soles, he could be released without charge. But Frank wasn't stupid. He knew very well that as long as he didn't say anything, he could enjoy his old age in peace. But if he did say anything, he would definitely die."

Hearing Charlie Kim's words, Xiao Ce suddenly remembered that Frost had mentioned a strange man in the prison ward who had been sentenced to over five thousand years. "So it was him!"

For a moment, Xiao Ce even wondered if it was fate that had brought him here.

This place is practically a living bank; all we need to do is win over this person.

Do we really need the money to confront the entire West?

Of course, this person is obviously not easy to deal with, after all, even the people of the twelve families couldn't handle him.

They must have used every kind of torture imaginable for money.

But Frank didn't say a word; he didn't think he could get him to speak.

Thinking of this, Xiao Ce said to Charlie Kim, "You first said 100 billion, then you said the bail was over 500 billion. How much money does he actually have?"

Charlie Kim smiled bitterly: "Nobody knows for sure, but what's said publicly is definitely a small percentage. The truth is probably much more, and only Frank himself knows the exact number. Because of Frank, there are organizations throughout the Western world dedicated to searching for Frank's underwater treasure. The Twelve Families have also organized hundreds of research and diving teams to search for it, but to no avail."

After listening to Charlie Kim's words, Xiao Ce laughed and said, "Those people are really stupid. This is like looking for a needle in a haystack. Besides, is it really at the bottom of the sea when he says it is?"

Upon hearing Xiao Ce's words, Charlie Jin's eyes lit up immediately: "Mr. Ce, you're so clever! How come we didn't think of that? It's very likely on land."

Looking at Charlie Kim, Xiao Ce thought, "It seems everyone dreams of getting rich overnight."

Even if it's unrealistic, just thinking about it often makes me very happy.

As Charlie Kim spoke, he realized he was overthinking things, and changed the subject: "Mr. Ce, we've gone off on a tangent. The purpose of me telling you all this is very simple, and there's only one: that Frank is not simple."

"At first, the twelve families were very tough, but over the years, they have all started to curry favor with Frank, trying to win his favor. They can send Frank anything he wants. Outside, money makes you the boss, and here Frank has a lot of resources, so naturally he has become the boss here."

After listening, Xiao Ce smiled and said, "Is your warden also trying to curry favor with him? After all, currying favor with him is very profitable?"

After hearing Xiao Ce's words, Charlie Jin laughed and said, "That's right, that's exactly it! So, you won't get away with offending him."

After listening to Charlie Kim's words, Xiao Ce smiled and said, "To be honest, I like challenges and I enjoy tackling tough problems. Charlie Kim, you've done everything you were supposed to do, and done it very well. I'm very satisfied! From now on, whatever happens to me, you don't need to worry about it. I won't hold you responsible."

Charlie Kim wanted to persuade him further, but the words caught in his throat.

After all, as the saying goes, it's hard to persuade a damned ghost with kind words.

Actually, Kimberly didn't say much about Xiao Ce when he told Charlie Kim.

Charlie Kim had also heard some of it.

However, after getting to know Xiao Ce, Charlie Kim can sum up his assessment in one word.

That's a madman!

He's already said everything he needed to say.

"Alright, Mr. Ce, then I can only wish you good luck. Of course, following your advice, having a chance to save your life and call for help is still useful!"

Charlie Kim continued speaking to Xiao Ce.

Xiao Ce didn't listen to Jin Charlie at all; instead, he was lost in his own thoughts.

"Mr. Charlie King, is Frank the boss of the entire prison block?"

When Charlie Jin heard Xiao Ce say this, he was a little puzzled. He thought to himself, "Wasn't what he just said very clear?"

Charlie Kim then said to Xiao Ce, "Mr. Ce, that's right. He's the boss."

As Charlie Kim spoke so earnestly, Xiao Ce's next sentence completely silenced him, leaving him with no more words to say.

"Mr. Charlie Kim, if I just make Frank my underling, can I then relax and do whatever I want here?"

Charlie Kim still looked at him with the same expression of utter disbelief, then said, "That's right, Mr. Ce. Theoretically, that's true. But hundreds of people have already died trying to do it..."

Charlie Kim offered words of advice.

But judging from Xiao Ce's expression, he didn't listen to a word.

Charlie Kim didn't want to waste any more time; he had already wasted enough time here.

“Mr. Ce, we can go now. I still don’t recommend that you make an enemy of him. I’ve already stayed here long enough.”

Xiao Ce nodded: "Alright, let's hurry. I can't wait to see this famous Frank..."

Seeing Xiao Ce's state, Charlie Kim was helpless and silently thought to himself, "Crazy!"

Xiao Ce couldn't wait to walk towards the door. When he reached the door...

Xiao Ce suddenly stopped and looked at Charlie Kim.

Charlie's eyes suddenly lit up; he thought Xiao Ce had come to his senses.

Xiao Ce said to Charlie Kim, "Mr. Charlie Kim, I have another favor to ask of you. Please be sure to agree!"
