Moon In Hugs

Chapter 247

Aditya just this time realized his life is really funny. I do not know how many times he has disguised himself for the sake of carrying out his mission or duties. I don't know how many ‘peran’ he has played. Only, this time he was like being dragged back into a situation when he had to cheat Old Leo.

Only, the target this time was the Rai Demon who did not say much. Either Aditya doesn't need to know what Rai's real name is. He only knew he had to do everything he could to get Rai to tell him where the last treasure or thing he stole was kept.

Unfortunately, the Rai Demon did indeed shut up.

When he first met, Rai Demon only glanced at Aditya flatly. At that time the middle-aged man was seen sitting in a cross-legged position like he was meditating in a corner of a cell. A prison officer in the most stuffy area pushed Aditya violently.

“Come on you, you snot hacker!” the guard snaps at Aditya. He was not only pushed, but also kicked violently.

At that time Aditya knew he had to follow a play deliberately made by the warden, Jim. He must follow what the will of each of these prison guards and their ways.

So Aditya did not fight.

Aditya toppled over, smashing into the narrow cell wall just in front of Rai Demon.

“Halo, how are you, Dude?” aditya greeted the master thief after the guards who drove him away.

Rai Demon just nodded his head, and did not say a word.

“You're mute, huh? Or, what?” ask Aditya pretending to be confused.

Rai Demon smiled shortly, then returned his concentration to his own thoughts.

They didn't say much but only Aditya's voice was heard in the cell. The inhabitants of the other cells around their cells also do not talk much. It is true Jim said that the inmates here are mostly quiet people who are not much capable, and maybe also genius, and cruel.

Aditya had expected that he would not be cared for by the other inmates, especially by this Rai Demon.

Whatever it is, Aditya still has to run all this in order to pay his promise in the past. And for the sake of being able to immediately end a life like this. He wants to live a normal life with Frita and his uncle.

So, he still tried to talk to Rai a day, two days, three days, still no results.

I don't know how many days have passed. Rai remained silent. Indeed, some other inmates in another cell had Aditya heard talking a word two, although short. Only Rai was completely silent.

One time Aditya annoyedly shouted, “You are all here mute, huh? This prison is a really weird place! Am I the only one who understands human language?!”

In the dining room Aditya throws out those words. A skinny bespectacled prisoner near the entrance approached him calmly, then said, “We are not mute, but just lazy to talk. Anyway here we don't trust each other.”

Another prisoner who was a fat rhino and was busy chewing his burnt toast said, “True, Son. You better be quiet and careful here. Jim's not the one who's gonna let your bacot get away with his absurd ambition.”

“Ambition? Who's Jim?”

“The warden here, Stupid! You don't know his name? Inmates are as stupid as you can be placed in a special prison like this?” tukas the skinny prisoner with glasses.

“Oh, yes? I don't really care about the name, Bro! And I'm not stupid!” aditya replied with annoyance.

Now he began to know how to fish so that the Rai Demon would notice him, then be able to give him confidence. It's obviously a long process.

Aditya be patient for that. For he knew at that moment Rai was staring at him from afar as he and the skinny and fat inmate spoke.

“Aditya, I heard you have a little ability to be a hacker. That's the role you're going to play, isn't it?” ask Jim.

“Yes, Amy had mentioned it a little while traveling here in the helicopter earlier in the morning,” said Aditya.

“Good. Don't forget what your name is here. Your new name I mean.”

“Fery. My name is here Feri. A hacker who has broken into the accounts of many clean companies until they lose millions of dollars,” Aditya said steadily.

“Ya, good. Is there anything we forget?”

“So far my role is pretty good. Rai won't know who I'm working for or if I'm actually in jail or not. I'll act as relaxed as possible, sir. You take it easy,” said Aditya tried to look relaxed, although honestly he was not that calm.

Jim immediately ordered two guards to escort Aditya in a fairly rude manner. Aditya heard that and kept quiet.

“This is the last one, Dit. We're here to treat you to do what I ask. In this charade, I asked you to work with me, be a hacker in my private company. Understand?” said Jim.

“Alright, it's an additional role that doesn't make me in trouble at all. Anything else?”

“No, Dit. I just told you to be careful. Not all of these prison dwellers who look weak are really safe for you.”

“Quiet, Sir. I can take care of myself.”

That is, the dialogue before Aditya was met by Rai Demon.

Now they have been together for two weeks in one cell. Aditya tries to give his fake life story as Feri the hacker to Rai Demon in hopes that they can be close friends.

But Rai remained silent.

“I don't know what makes you so silent, man. Everyone says you're not dumb or deaf. You are healthy, your ears and tongue are healthy. But, why? Don't let me go crazy here because there are no friends chatting,” said Aditya put on a glaring look in front of Rai Demon.

Rai's lips remained tightly closed.

The lips may have just opened up after Jim's latest threats and harsh treatment of them both later.

Oh, yes, here's what hasn't been told about this one secret prison.

Jim routinely threatens and tortures his nurses, lest they say what they haven't said. In this case, only inmates like Rai Demon were given this special treatment. Usually this is useful to uncover new information related to the bodies of murder victims or such as valuables that cannot be found.

Two months passed after Aditya was locked up with Rai.

One time Jim ran out of patience. He decided to shoot Rai Demon dead right then and there.
