The warden who guards the witches

The next day, Veronica came to the core area and went straight to Sophie's cell.

As soon as Sophie saw her, she showed a vigilant look, like a mouse seeing a cat.

"Don't be nervous, I won't interrogate you today, just work normally." Veronica saw the other party's thoughts and opened the cell by herself, "Lie down on the bed first."

"What?" Sophie was stunned for a moment.

"Do it." Veronica replied.

After hesitating for a second, Sophie lay on the bed.

Veronica approached, which made Sophie subconsciously tense her whole body.

Veronica ignored the other party's reaction and took out the key to unlock her shackles.

"Get up and stretch out your hands." Veronica continued to order.

Although she was a little confused, Sophie sat up obediently and stretched out her hand: "Do you want to change clothes?"

"No, it's just to make it easier for you to work temporarily. If you behave honestly today, you don't have to wear it." After saying that, Veronica took the shackles, stepped aside, and motioned Sophie to walk in front.

The sudden lenient treatment made Sophie suspicious for a while. After leaving the cell, she glanced back at Veronica every few steps, worried that the other party would have some new moves.

After repeating several times, Veronica couldn't help frowning: "Don't look back, walk faster!"

"Can I apply for someone to monitor me?" Sophie asked.

"Do you think you are eating in the box? Can you change the waiter?" Veronica's face darkened.

Sophie had no choice but to turn her face back.

"Go left in front, weed the playground today." Veronica commanded.

"Outdoor work?" Sophie turned her head in surprise.

"Don't worry, it's cloudy today, I'm taking good care of you." Veronica replied.

After arriving at the playground, Veronica asked Sophie to get gloves and tools, and directed her to go to the corner to pull out weeds.

In addition to Sophie, there were three other prisoners from the core area working together on the playground. Veronica replaced the original prison guard on duty, directed four prisoners to be responsible for different areas, and walked around nearby to ensure that everyone was within her sight.

She turned around a long circle, and when she passed the area in charge of Sophie again, Sophie spoke and talked to her in a voice that only the two of them could hear clearly: "It feels like the surveillance has become looser. Yesterday, you were the only one watching me."

"You still have the interest to gossip, and think the work is too easy?" Veronica replied calmly.

"Don't be so rigid. Just chatting won't slow me down." Sophie said slowly, "You removed the shackles and let me work with other prisoners. Can I understand that you are a little more relaxed about me? Please give me a definite answer. I don't want to be startled."

Veronica thought for a moment and said, "The warden told me that you have special abilities, but now we have prepared corresponding countermeasures."

"Countermeasures?" Sophie was stunned for a moment, and then she realized something. She was frowning and staring at Veronica and asked, "Can I try it?"

Veronica turned her head and looked at the window of the main building of the prison in the distance. Aiden was standing by the window and watching the playground.

"Please, but I advise you not to do anything else." Veronica put her hand on the gun expressionlessly.

Sophie opened her mouth and was about to speak when an order immediately popped up in her mind: "From the moment the rules are written, it is forbidden to change your appearance for the purpose of disguise. Violators will be punished with corporal punishment."

"So that's how it is. The warden is finally willing to spend some money on me." Sophie understood.

"Get to work." Veronica urged.

"Wordless Code", one person can only write or modify it three times a day.

But if two people use it, the space for operation will also be larger.

After trying to let Veronica use the "Wordless Code", Aiden was not too stingy about the number of times he wrote rules on the "Wordless Code". Some rules can be written by Veronica, and then even if there is any emergency on the day, Aiden can modify the rules in time by himself.

Sophie squatted down and continued to deal with the weeds growing in the corner. Veronica glanced at her and was about to check on the work status of other prisoners. At this time, Sophie whispered again: "Do you like the warden?"

Veronica's body suddenly stiffened, and she immediately turned her head to look at the window. Sophie's voice was very low. Given the distance between the main building and this corner, even the werewolves might not be able to hear it clearly, but Veronica still panicked for a moment.

Aiden's figure was no longer by the window. It seemed that he went to work after confirming that there was no problem.

"You don't have to hide it. In fact, you are still very-" Sophie continued to speak without noticing, but when she turned her head and saw Veronica's creepy expression as if she was considering whether to silence her, she subconsciously swallowed the word "obviously" back.

"I don't mean anything else... just asking." Although cold sweat had begun to seep out of her forehead, Sophie still managed to maintain her composure.

Veronica calmed down in time and realized that she shouldn't be easily shaken in front of the prisoner.

So what if you like someone? It's not something to be ashamed of.

"It's not a good habit to pry into someone's privacy." She gave a safe response.

"I'm just curious about your relationship. Why can he trust you with the only authority? It's not something that can be easily handed over to others."

"It's just based on the right judgment. If I didn't have that thing at the time, you might have overreacted and bit off your tongue." Veronica replied.

"That's not what I'm talking about. I just want to know why he trusts you so much? Because you like him? Or because he saved your life... Ah, sorry, I haven't told you yet. I have investigated some things and know that he overturned the case for you."

"He trusts me only because I am trustworthy." Veronica held her hands up. "If I were the kind of scum who would stab my benefactor in the back, even if he saved my life, he would not entrust the matter to me."

Sophie glanced at Veronica and asked another question: "If he is in danger of his life, would you be willing to sacrifice your life to save him?"

"Of course." Veronica answered without hesitation.

After a moment of silence, Sophie let out a long sigh: "I really envy you."

"What do you envy?" Veronica was confused.

"Miss Prison Guard, can you tell the warden a message?" Sophie did not answer the question, but made a serious request, "I have something I want to talk to him about again."
