Swallowed Something Strange

1399 Words
At midday, Aiden returned to the Rosebud Iron Prison and settled into his chair.   Flanda and the other supervisors of the prison districts had already taken care of everything they could on his behalf during the half day he was away, leaving a portion of the documents that needed to be reviewed by him in person to be neatly yarded in the centre of his desk.   Aiden obediently began to deal with the documents, and when he flipped to the documents related to personnel, he couldn't help but think back to the conversation he had with Rebecca in the morning.   "You are now the warden of the Rosebud Iron Prison!?" Rebecca exclaimed.   "This is something that you should have known as well." Aiden looked calm.   "That's so ......" Rebecca's expression became a bit odd for a moment, "But now I really don't have any impression at all."   "Why do you suddenly want to work in a prison?" Aiden dryly asked the reason.   "I've heard that the work there is a bit cleaner. It's not very realistic to return to the front line at the station now that I'm what I've become, and I'd like to get an easier job."   "You probably have some kind of misconception about the job of a prison guard, honestly it's not as dangerous as a first line trial officer, but it's not that easy either." Aiden smiled, "Prisons have to be manned throughout the day, and when they're short staffed, the workload is still pretty heavy, the duty hours are irregular, and the content is a little boring."   Although Aiden did make the work in the Rosebud Iron Prison slightly easier through reforms, that at best only made an unbearable working environment a little more normal.   In his previous life, he had also encountered a considerable number of people who had the inherent impression that his job was "free and pensionable", but the truth was that compared to a normal nine-to-five job, this job definitely did not fall into the easy category.   "Anyway, if you're there, there's a way for me to transfer there." Rebecca said half-jokingly.   "Where's the doorway? I'm just poking my nose in when someone transfers in, it's all about whether or not the old man will let you go." Aiden said in a serious tone, "You should also think about it a little more before making a decision."   ......   The words were still ringing in my ears.   Rebecca looked like she was really planning on transferring to work at the prison, but honestly, Aiden wasn't too brave to take her over.   Director Harold was already quite upset about him transferring away from the Heresy Judgement Bureau to work in the Rosebud Iron Prison, and if Rebecca, who was a rising star, was poached by this unit again ......   That old man might be the one who would personally come here with a sword to kill.   Moreover, from Aiden's observation today, it seems that the loss of memory has a greater impact on the current Rebecca than he had imagined. Not to mention work, it seems that even living on her own has been affected a little.   Prison work, on the whole, had a low margin for error, and a slight oversight could easily lead to serious consequences. As far as he was concerned, the current Rebecca couldn't go back to the Heresy Judgement Bureau for the time being, but it wasn't suitable for her to come to the Rosebud Iron Prison either, and she was afraid that she really needed to recuperate for a period of time to adapt to the state of her amnesia first.   Not only that, after seeing Rebecca, Aiden has always had an indescribable sense of incongruity......   At this time, the office door was knocked on.   "Come in." Aiden casually responded.   Flanda opened the door and came into the office, reporting to Aiden, "Warden, there's someone from the Heresy Judgement Bureau!"   "What!?" Aiden was shocked in his heart.   That old man wouldn't really kill over because of Rebecca's matter, right!   But on second thought, he thought that Rebecca hadn't formally applied for a transfer yet, and he had mentioned it to Harold a long time ago, so that old man would at least have to wait for Rebecca to apply before he could kill him.   "It's the prisoner you mentioned before, the captured S-class wanted criminal, Precia." Flanda made the clarification, "The Heresy Judgement Bureau brought the person here ahead of schedule."   "Now? They only notified yesterday, shouldn't it normally be a day or two away?" Aiden was a little surprised.   "The prisoner seemed to be a bit unwell and needed medical attention, so that side said to simply send us here early for a checkup." Flanda sighed.   "It's pushing this kind of chore onto us." Aiden kind of understood.   Prisoners can't be left alone when they have a physical condition, but a high-risk prisoner like Precia, who is an S-class wanted criminal on the outside and would be marked red when she enters the prison, would have to be prepared for a considerable degree of countermeasures to be sent to the hospital for a consultation, which would be quite a chore for the Heretic Judgement Bureau as well.   So they simply sent the prisoner ahead to the prison they were scheduled to go to, which had some degree of medical facilities anyway.   "So what are her symptoms now?" Aiden asked for details.   "Tummy ache." Flanda replied.   "Tummy ache?" Aiden immediately frowned, this kind of symptom was a common excuse when the prisoner was pretending to be sick, but if it was just pretending to be sick, the Heresy Judgement Bureau shouldn't have been able to see it at all, and be alarmed enough to send the prisoner over early.   "As far as I can see it should be true, when the prisoner was sent over, his face was a little pale and his face was covered in sweat ...... " Flanda described, "When the pain flared up the person was a little unsteady on his feet. "   "Has it been sent for examination?"   "Already sent over, now waiting for the results from the prison doctor's side-"   Flanda was only halfway through her sentence when the office door was pushed open.   Aiden and Flanda looked over at the same time, both a little surprised, it was rare for a prison guard to enter this office without knocking on the door, unless there was something really urgent to report.   Warden Isabella hurriedly barged in, "It's no good Warden, Warden, the new inmate ...... who was just sent to the infirmary for examination has suddenly started vomiting blood!!!"   "Spitting blood?" Aiden's face immediately darkened upon hearing this.   It seems that what the Heresy Judgement Bureau pushed over today wasn't even a chore, but a not-so-small trouble.   After exchanging a glance with Flanda, he immediately stood up from his seat, "Take us over to take a look!"   After striding to the infirmary, the first thing Aiden saw was the new prisoner lying half-dead and moaning, with a trace of blood hanging from the corner of his mouth.   "Warden." The prison doctor saw him.   "What's the situation?" Aiden asked towards her.   "I suspect she swallowed something strange earlier." The prison doctor said with a grimace, "She has a scratch on her throat and inflammation that looks to be a few days old. I'm guessing she swallowed it and it was probably fine at first, then it got stuck in something stuck for a while before it started bleeding today ......"   "Gastrointestinal foreign body?" Aiden was stunned.   It's been a few days ......   That means this foreign body should have been swallowed by Precia when she was in the custody of the Heresy Trial Bureau ...... No, it's also possible that it was swallowed before that.   I'm afraid that the Heresy Judgement Bureau's side is completely unaware of this matter, or else they would have definitely investigated what Precia swallowed anyways.   The digestive tract was now bleeding, which meant that an ulcer had appeared, and if it perforated, it would be life-threatening.   "Warden, I'm afraid this can't be expelled naturally, it needs to be operated on. We can't handle it on our side, we have to send her outside." The prison doctor suggested.   Aiden thought for a moment and turned to Flanda, "Call prisoner 3340 over to take a look first."
