Chapter: 4999

At this moment, Ma Er wasn't aware that her good days were already counting down.

Currently, she was just finishing the headcount in her cell block, but even though others had already formed lines, Ma Er was still lounging on her bed, reclining with her legs crossed, and reading a Chinese book.

The female guard who did the headcount didn't notice Ma Er's behavior, and after confirming that no one escaped from this cell block, she loudly declared, "It's time to go to the dining hall for lunch now!"

After saying that, she came to Ma Er's bed and said with a smile, "Er sister, today's kitchen made meatballs and shrimp dishes. I've prepared a bowl of braised chicken eggplant for you. If you need anything, just find Claire at the dining hall."

This female guard was so polite to Ma Er because Ma Er was someone whom all guards were told to take care of by the prison warden, and previously, Guard Jessica had gotten into trouble with Ma Er and ended up being demoted.

So, every guard in Bedford Hills Correctional Facility knew that Ma Er's background was extremely formidable, so they all showed her great respect when they saw her.

The warden was looking out for Ma Er primarily because Ma Er was someone whom he had been instructed to take care of by Fee Can Xin. Fee Can Xin's influence in New York was unparalleled, and it was far beyond what a prison warden like him could compare to. So, from his perspective, Ma Er was basically the perfect opportunity for him to climb up the social ladder, and so he would never miss out on this.

It was because of this that the entire Bedford Hills Correctional Facility took extra precautions around Ma Er. And Ma Er wasn't just intimidating in front of the guards; thanks to those three female warriors from the Wan Long Temple, the original troublemakers at Bedford Hills Correctional Facility had almost been completely eliminated, and now none of them dared to cause any trouble.

Ma Er, with these three women backing her up, had long since become the de facto top dog at Bedford Hills Correctional Facility, earning herself a nickname - "Bedford Hills Ghostly Figure." At this moment, Ma Er looked at the female guard and slowly put down her magazine, saying somewhat discontentedly, "Luo, don't tell me, but lately, these magazines that have been sent over haven't been very good. The stories inside are dull and trite, with no nutritional value whatsoever. Can you please bring me a few issues of 'Knowledge Companions' to read instead?"

"'Knowledge Companions'?" The female guard was an American-born Chinese, so she didn't know what "Knowledge Companions" was at all. So she asked nervously, "Ma Er sister, what is this 'Knowledge Companions' you're talking about?"

Ma Er looked at her with a haughty expression and said, "Knowledge Companions is a magazine that's very profound and has extremely strong literary value. It's my favorite literary publication over the years. If it weren't for the biases of American people towards Chinese literature, the authors inside Knowledge Companions would have won the Nobel Literature Prize long ago! Truly, imperialism will not die!"

The female guard said awkwardly, "Ma Er sister, the Nobel Prize isn't judged by Americans; mainly by Swedes..."

Ma Er furrowed her brow and asked, "Is that so? How come I didn't know?"

"Because the Nobel Prize is run by the Swedes... it's a prize funded by him, the Nobel Prize," the female guard hurriedly introduced.

Ma Er realized she was missing something and immediately said coldly, "So what? What about Sweden or Switzerland? Aren't they all controlled behind the scenes by Americans?"

The female guard hastily said, "Arrest sister, this Nobel thing... it's really got nothing to do with America..."

Ma Er impatiently said, "Oh, I'm not wasting my breath on you. Hurry up and think of a way to get me some 'Knowledge Companions' to take a look."

The female guard had no choice but to respectfully say, "Okay, Arrest sister, I'll go help you think of a plan!"

Ma Er nodded and waved her hand, saying, "Alright, just go out then."

The female guard quickly nodded and said, "Okay, Arrest sister, I'll go first then."

After the female guard left, a group of solicitous female inmates surrounded Ma Er, each one chatting away:

"How are you resting, Arrest sister?"

"Arrest sister, let's accompany you to eat?"

Ma Er hummed and then slowly got up from her bed, stretching her lazy arms over her head. Then she saw a group of people, including that timid Chloe.

That Chloe was actually the prison tyrant who had been bullying Ma Er nonstop until now. But in this particular cell block, she had already become Ma Er's punching bag. JrNovels.com
