The Peremptory Casey Davies novel Chapter 724

"Warden, go to have a look hurriedly. Casey is doing something outrageous again. At this rate, sooner or later, No. 5 Prison will be ruined by him." In the corridor, an old man caught up with Dudley and said with an anxious expression.

Dudley stopped, turned his head, looked at the old man and asked, "What is he doing? Could it be that he begins to slaughter people?"

"No, he didn't. But what he's doing is even worse. Go to have a look, and you'll know." The old man said.

Hearing that, Dudley nodded, turned around and went to the monitoring room with him.

There had already been many people standing in the monitoring room. They were all watching what was happening on the Edith Mountain on the screen.

On the screen, Foley was standing in front of the pile of potatoes and was asking his men to put the potatoes in order. In front of them, there was a long line of people who looked excited.

A piece of cloth hung beside Foley. There were some words on this piece of cloth: If you cast one vote, you can get a bag of potatoes and a bundle of wild vegetables. It was an opportunity not to be missed!

Casey was sitting on the wooden rocking-chair Foley specially made for him, looking very relaxed.

Seeing that, Dudley couldn't help laughing at once, saying, "He's just making others vote for him in this way. It's not outrageous."

"Warden, No. 5 Prison, which is always called purgatory, is made a farmer's market because of Casey. Isn't it outrageous?"

"Besides, the prisoners should really go to vote to get potatoes. Look at the long queue. I estimate that Casey will get the vote from about half of the prisoners after they all vote."

"At that time, according to the rule, we'll have to let him leave No. 5 Prison."

Hearing that, Dudley frowned at once and said, "Unexpectedly, his idea should work. Isn't it that the prisoners always don't trust others? Why do they believe Casey?"

"We have no idea. Before, no one dared to go to vote in exchange for potatoes and wild vegetables. However, later, Caldwell came to this place with a group of people. After they voted, they all got potatoes and wild vegetables. Finding that Casey was honest, others all went to vote."

"Later, the people on List of Malicious People, who had lost to Casey, all came to vote for Casey with their men. So there are so many people queuing up there."

Hearing that, Dudley sighed helplessly and said, "Even if he really gets the vote from the prisoners in this way, we can't stop him. After all, this rule was made a long time ago. If half of the prisoners really vote for him, we have to let him leave the prison."

Hearing that, people present all wore a somewhat complicated look. They had thought that the first person who could leave No. 5 Prison by getting vote from half of the prisoners must be a vicious person who killed a lot of people. To everyone's surprise, the person who had the ability to do so should decide to get the vote by distributing potatoes.

"We can't keep him here." Dudley murmured.
