Chapter 117:
<b>It''s Not Impossible</b>
In the evening, Aiden, apanied by Franda, inspected the core area.
"Come at me, you waste! Watch how I skin you alive!"
"Trash boss, crawl for me!"
"Strongly demand more food in the cafeteria!"
Tonight, Veronica was not on duty, and after Aiden had spoken to Carmi before, she had not paid much attention to this matter. The core area had once again returned to its chaotic state.
But today, Aiden wasn''t concerned about them.
"Has Prisci been moved to the prison cell?" Aiden asked Franda beside him.
"Yes, in the evening, the medical office said there was no need for her to continue lying there, so we followed the procedure and brought her to the cell. As you instructed earlier, we ced her in room number twelve," Franda replied.
Aiden strode through the corridor and arrived directly at room twelve.
"Ah, Warden, good evening," Dailey greeted Aiden as he stood at the door.
"Where is Prisci?" Aiden asked Dailey, noticing only her leaning against the gate.
"She..." Dailey hesitated, turning aside to let Aiden see deep into the cell. "She''s still curled up inside."
Aiden fixed his gaze and saw Prisci huddled on her bed at the back of the cell, staring warily at Dailey, her eyes full of hostility.
However, upon seeing Aiden, her gaze noticeably softened.
"I don''t know why, but since she arrived, she doesn''t want me near her. No matter how I try tofort her, it doesn''t work," Dailey said helplessly.
"she has no memory after all. Suddenly being locked up in the core area from the infirmary, and sharing a room with strangers, it''s normal for her to be nervous. She''ll get used to it," Franda remarked calmly.
Perhaps it''s not just for this reason... Aiden thought to himself.
Dailey was an S-ss wanted criminal that the Inquisition Bureau had spent considerable resources to capture, and Reba, had also been involved in the operation to capture Dailey in the past, so she naturally knew Dailey.
If the person inside Prisci now was the Reba who had lost her memory, and if deep down in her consciousness, impressions of certain people and things still lingered, then in Reba''s eyes, Dailey would undoubtedly be someone to be wary of.
This could also exin the unfounded sense of trust that the current "Prisci" held towards him.
"Dailey, please step aside to the wall, I''ll have a word with her,"
Aiden gestured for Dailey to move away from the door, then beckoned Prisci.
Seeing this, Prisci got off the bed and cautiously approached the gate, feeling as if on a thin ice.
"Um..." She hesitated, unable to recall how to address Aiden in this situation.
"Call me Warden," Aiden reminded her.
"Um... good evening, Warden," Prisci greeted Aiden softly, nodding almost imperceptibly.
It was evident she wasn''t quite ustomed to this title, and she might not even have a clear understanding the concept of the "prison" she was in.
"Do you not want to stay in this room?" Aiden asked her directly.
Prisci cast a careful nce at Dailey, who stood with folded arms by the wall, and replied softly, "No..."
"Why do I feel like she''s unnaturally scared of you..." Franda''s also noticed Prisci''s unease and looked suspiciously at Dailey inside, "You haven''t done anything strange to her, have you?"
"How could that be?" Dailey sighed, trying to approach Prisci, "Alright, Prisci, don''t be so nervous. I''m Dailey, truly your friend from before. I won''t harm you..."
She reached out to touch Prisci''s shoulder, but Prisci flinched and pulled away, saying, "Don''t! Don''t touch me! Or else, I won''t be polite!"
She even made a threatening expression, resembling an angry cat with its fur standing on end.
"It''s really strange, what could be the problem?" Dailey pondered, unable to figure it out.
"Please let me change rooms..." Prisci softly requested Aiden.
"You''ve just recovered from a serious illness, with no memory, living alone is simply not convenient. And It''s rare to find someone willing to protect you here. You''re already lucky. Don''t be too stubborn! This prison area is full of ruthless individuals. Who else do you want to room with?" Franda impatiently advised Prisci.
"Um..." Prisci thought for a moment, then hesitantly raised her hand and pointed at Aiden.
"Me?" Aiden raised an eyebrow.
"I feel like I can trust you," Prisci said confidently.
"Prisoner 3397, don''t be unreasonable!" Franda immediately reprimanded Prisci.
"It''s not impossible. Should I let you out now?" Aiden suddenly responded.
"Exactly!" Franda instinctively agreed, then paused, "Huh?"
"Warden!?" She turned abruptly to look at Aiden, with a look full of surprise on her face.
"It''s fine, go ahead and let her out," Aiden signaled for Franda to open the door.
Franda hesitated for a while but eventually opened the cell door as instructed, allowing Prisci to step out.
"Warden, what are you..." Even Dailey was a bit stunned.
"Don''t worry, for today, I''ll take charge of her," Aiden reassured them with a wave of his hand.
"Wow! Lord Aiden, you''ve finallye around!" a surprised exmation came from room thirteen across the corridor.
The Subus Fei leaned against the bars, gazing intently at Aiden, her tail wagging excitedly.
"Lord Aiden, I want toe too! Let me join in!! Since you''ve found one already, why not add me too!!" She grabbed the bars, bouncing up and down enthusiastically, urging Aiden.
Aiden turned his head, "Well, I was just about to call you. Come out as well."
"Oh, don''t say that..." Fei habitually tried to be persuasive, but then realized something was off, "Huh?"
She stared at Aiden in disbelief, her expression one of astonishment.
"I said youe out too, Franda, open the door for her," Aiden instructed his subordinate.
"Warden? Are you serious!?" Franda sought confirmation from Aiden.
"No problem, open the door for her," Aiden insisted.
Franda, with a head full of question marks, opened the cell door, and Fei immediately sprang out like an arrow, "Lord Aiden!!"
Aiden swiftly maneuvered behind Prisci as Fei lunged forward and embraced a bewildered Prisci.
"Tsk! Wrong target!" Fei realized her mistake and roughly pushed Prisci away.
"Behave yourself!" Aiden warned Fei timely, pressing down on her as she tried to lunge forward again.
"Got it, got it, let''s wait till we are in your office, right?" Fei said eagerly, "No problem! I can hold back a little!"
