When Westmoreland heard this, his expression changed sharply and became fierce. "Boy, you better be joking!"
Nolan shook his head: "Sorry, it's not a joke, and it's not good news about your daughter, but I'm sure you want to know."
At these words, Westmoreland's body trembled, and evident panic appeared on his face. "What's wrong with my daughter?!"
Nolan shook his head again. "First you have to give me what I want."
Westmoreland did not hesitate and asked directly: "What do you want to know?"
"The more details you give me about the outside world, the better." Nolan paused and then added: "What interests me most are the different criminal gangs and anything that can generate a lot of money."
Westmoreland understood, he did not waste time and began to speak, Nolan listened silently and asked questions from time to time.
Time flew by and finally, before recreation hour ended, Nolan got what he wanted.
This world is indeed a crossover world, not just "Prison Break."
At this moment, the popular enemy in the United States is mainly marijuana, most of the marijuana comes from Mexico.
The owners of the big plazas in Mexico have relied on it for years, however, the good times seem to be coming to an end, Mexico began to crack down on this business this year, but it's not a big problem.
Because next door, in Colombia, comrade Pablo seems to be getting lucky and is about to forge his own legend.
As for the United States, there is nothing special, only capital struggles of all kinds, high-level affairs, Westmoreland has only heard of that and doesn't know details.
"Now tell me what's wrong with my daughter." Westmoreland was very anxious, almost biting the words.
Nolan was about to nod when he suddenly thought of another person, he was sure that man had to exist there.
"One last question, what do you know about New Mexico, have you heard of a guy called Heisenberg?"
Westmoreland shook his head without hesitation. "I haven't heard of him."
Nolan was not surprised, that was fine, that guy was probably still just a bored chemistry teacher.
Knowing the old man was impatient, Nolan didn't drag it out any longer: "Your daughter has esophageal cancer, in the terminal stage."
"For now she should be receiving treatment at Sacred Heart Hospital in Indianapolis, she doesn't have much time left, about three months."
"I don't think you will get out, but maybe she can still move, maybe you should try to see her."
On hearing this, Westmoreland's face turned pale, his whole body seemed to deflate, he collapsed and could not speak for a long time, seeing an old man fall like that, Nolan couldn't help but feel pity.
When Westmoreland regained a bit of composure, he stared at Nolan, clenched his teeth and said: "You'd better be lying!"
"Unfortunately, no, deep down you already know it, because a few calls to the hospital would be enough to confirm it."
On hearing that, Westmoreland lost his strength, staggered and almost fell to the ground, luckily, Nolan held him in time.
"Thank you." Westmoreland murmured.
"Don't thank me, I'm not a good person, because I have another request." Nolan took a deep breath, but continued: "It's about those five million, I have a request."
Westmoreland frowned. "What request?"
Nolan leaned down and whispered: "In a few days I'll leave, I know where your five million are, I expect you to tell your daughter that more than half is mine, the rest I will give to her."
"??!"
Westmoreland's eyes opened wide, his whole body shook, that tremor was so strong that even the cat he held in his arms shuddered.
"You… you… you…" Westmoreland couldn't articulate anything else, repeating those words again and again.
Nolan sighed. "Sorry, as I told you, I'm not a good guy."
"But when you calm down, you'll think about it, it's the best plan for you, your daughter doesn't need that much money, that amount will only bring her trouble in her last three months."
"Although from a certain point of view, it's like giving you more opportunities to see her." With that said, Nolan stood up and left, he didn't want to keep hitting the old man, nor keep seeing him broken.
…
Shortly after, recreation ended, under the guards' supervision, all the inmates of area A were taken to the cafeteria for dinner, even though it was not yet dark.
"Prison life is a mess." Before arriving here, Nolan had dinner at seven or eight at night, sometimes later, now he seemed like an old man.
The dinner was not tasty, but not inedible either, prison food, that's all you need to know, then it was shower time.
A large group of tough and violent inmates, piled into a common bathroom, just imagining it gives you chills.
"This looks a bit dangerous." Nolan noticed right away, he is attractive and slim, the perfect prey.
"It's likely I'll have to kick some asses to ward off trouble.." Nolan thought with dead fish eyes, sighed silently and resigned himself.
He was right, not much time passed when a huge guy, almost 1.90, called El Gato, whom a thief nicknamed Tuna had left lying, approached directly.
The other inmates in the shower began to move aside, Nolan thought, he could run today, but what would happen tomorrow, the day after, and all the time he was in prison?
Therefore he stopped hesitating, wrapped himself with a towel and smiled at El Gato, who was only two or three meters away.
"If I were you, I'd turn around right now." El Gato smiled and kept walking.
Nolan sighed, adopted a fighting stance, imitated Ip Man and challenged him with his hand. "Come."
The inmates around laughed, El Gato also smiled. "I'll be gentle." He advanced and stretched out his hand.
…
About two minutes later, El Gato was lying on the ground groaning in pain, Nolan lifted his foot from his face and left, the others quickly dispersed, not daring to get in his way.
