The other female prisoners left the canteen with mixed feelings of envy, jealousy, and gratitude.
On the way to the infirmary, Bonnie couldn't help but ask the police officer beside her some questions.
The policeman knew that Bonnie received special treatment in the prison, so he was happy to oblige.
“Sir, do you know who the woman numbered fifty-six is?“
The woman that Bonnie had mentioned was the one who had been sitting near her when the incident happened. After careful observation, Bonnie had noticed that when those female prisoners had been making trouble for her, all of them had glanced at the woman numbered fifty-six.
Hearing that, the officer was a little shocked. Then, he asked, “Why? Did she cause you any trouble?“
Quickly, she shook her head and denied it. “No, no. I was just curious. It seems that everyone is scared of her.“
Upon hearing that, the officer smiled and answered, “The woman numbered fifty-six is the leader of the women's prison. Naturally, all the female prisoners fear her. If she doesn't bully you, maybe you can try to befriend her and have a good relationship with her. We are capable of protecting you, but there will be times when we're not there to do so. It would be good for you to be friends with her.“
It was forbidden to develop any superior-inferior relationships inside the prison, but so far, the female prisoner numbered fifty-six hasn't done anything wrong. So, the police officers just let her continue to establish her dominance over other female prisoners inside the prison.
Deep in thought, Bonnie nodded. Even though the woman hadn't personally harmed her in any way, she still felt as if she was hostile towards her.
After receiving treatment at the infirmary, Bonnie walked back to her cell.
There was no privacy in the cell. Even though Bonnie stayed alone in a separate cell, there were still other female prisoners staying in the cells next to hers.
When she returned to her cell, she saw several female prisoners glaring at her.
It made Bonnie anxious. Their stares were intense. In a desperate attempt to calm herself down, she decided to lie down and cover her eyes with her arms.
She thought that she would be fine as long as she didn't look at them, but how could these envious female prisoners make it easy for her?
“Hey, whore. Did you go and sleep with that man again?“ a cold voice called out. Upon hearing this voice, all the other female prisoners stopped glaring at Bonnie right away.
Bonnie sat up curiously and looked at the direction in which the voice came from. She wasn't that surprised when she saw that it was the woman numbered fifty-six.
As soon as this woman spoke, all the other female prisoners around them shut their mouths at once. After all, none of them dared to interrupt the leader of the prison.
“What do you have against me?“ Bonnie asked, choosing to ignore her malicious words. She just didn't understand why this woman seemed to have a vendetta against her. Bonnie couldn't remember when and where she had offended her.
The woman sneered, “Do I need a reason to be against you? Each woman in this prison was bullied one way or another. If you kneel and beg for mercy now, then I will tell everyone to stop bullying you and even take you as my follower.“
Hearing this, Bonnie frowned. It seemed that this woman was unreasonable. Bonnie didn't see the point in talking to unreasonable people.
Besides, the police officers were standing guard just outside their cells. With the presence of the officers, Bonnie believed that the other female prisoners would not dare harm her. To minimize the chances of the other prisoners causing trouble to her, she could just stay inside her cell and only go out during mealtime.
