Chapter 7 - Franklin

Feeling an unfamiliar object invade his body, Cain instinctively struggled.

"If you don't want to bleed to death, then be good. This is just emergency treatment; your injury hasn't fully healed."

With the internal breach sealed, Cain regained some strength and opened his eyes.

"Thank you."

Enduring the intense pain, Cain stood up and looked at the ground in the distance.

The disc had vanished.

"Give me the memory disc."

Cain extended his hand to F.F. His voice was still weak from excessive blood loss.

"Slap—"

F.F. unhesitatingly slapped Cain 's hand away, then tucked the disc further into her clothes.

"Why should I give you anything? And is that how you talk to your savior?"

Just then, urgent footsteps and the voices of Guards suddenly came from the hallway outside the door.

"It sounds like something's happening in the Prisoner Cemetery?"

"Go, quickly, check it out!"

Hearing the voices getting closer, Cain frowned, then quickly said to F.F. beside him, "If you don't want to be taken away by the Guards, help me up."

"Hmph, I wouldn't help such a rude fellow." Cain 's words were interpreted by F.F. as a threatening tone. Tilting her head to one side, F.F. said disdainfully, "As for being taken away by the Guards, I couldn't care less."

Indeed.

The Foo Fighters are not human; it is essentially a collective of planktonic organisms that were granted intelligence and Stand ability by Pale Snake , maintaining its personality and form through its Stand ability.

Human solitary confinement posed no threat to it.

"Heh, then have you not considered that Ermes is lying here severely injured, and you're about to be locked in solitary confinement? Then Jolyne Cujoh will have no help at all."

"If I'm not mistaken, attacking a Guard is a serious crime. Depending on the severity, you could be confined for one month to half a year. By then, the man whose Stand and memories were stolen by Pale Snake won't last until you get out of solitary confinement."

"...Hmph, fine, fine. Just helping you up is enough, right?" After a moment of silence, F.F. finally chose to comply.

Just as he said, Jotaro Kujo wouldn't last until then.

At the same time, the Guards had just arrived.

They were dumbfounded by the messy scene in the cemetery.

"What, what exactly happened here?"

"Did the prisoners clash?"

"But that wouldn't involve digging up graves, would it?"

Soon, the Guards' gazes fell upon the only two standing figures in the room.

"Don't move!"

"Relax, brothers." Seeing the Guards pointing their guns at them, Cain quickly pulled out his ID card and threw it onto the ground in front of them. "I'm also a Guard. This should prove my identity."

"Cain , ID number 12138."

After checking the information on the ID card and carefully comparing the photo with Cain , the leading Guard finally lowered his gun and quickly walked over to Cain 's side.

"Brother, what happened to you?" Taking Cain 's body from F.F.'s hands, the Guard asked casually.

Since Cain was directly placed in the Guard position by the Warden, almost all the Guards in the prison considered him to be well-connected.

"I just wanted to go to the infirmary for some band-aids, but who would have thought I'd run into prisoners clashing? And well, it ended up like this..."

As his voice trailed off, Cain spread his hands helplessly.

Hearing this, the Guard was also indignant and immediately wanted to lock all the prisoners in the room in solitary confinement.

"Hey, what are you doing?!" Seeing the Guards gradually approaching, F.F. also put her hands behind her back, her FF bullets already prepared.

Seeing this, the corner of Cain 's mouth also curled up slightly.

Letting out a slight breath, Cain patted the shoulder of the Guard next to him, "Brother, I don't think this has anything to do with them. It was mainly that female prisoner who lost her life who truly started the conflict. The others just need a verbal warning, what do you think?"

"That's not according to regulations..." The Guard's expression was a bit troubled.

"Is that so?" Cain smiled, then spread his fingers, revealing a glimpse of a Franklin. "I think they still have a chance to turn over a new leaf, don't you, for Mr. Franklin's sake."

"Hmm... I think Mr. Benjamin would agree. In that case, let's withdraw." Smiling, the Guard took the money from Cain 's hand and immediately ordered his squad to withdraw.

"There shouldn't be any trouble for a while."

Watching the Guards leave, Cain breathed a sigh of relief.

But the next second, his backside suddenly hurt, "Hey, what are you doing, woman?!"

"You did that on purpose just now, didn't you?"

"I don't know what you're talking about. Alright, let's send those two to the infirmary first, otherwise they really will go see Franklin."

"Hmph, I'll let you off this time." F.F. stepped forward to help Ermes and walked towards the infirmary.

"Hmm... It's truly worthy of A in both Power and Speed, to still be breathing after a punch like that." Cain walked over to Anastasia and checked for his breath.

Truly worthy of The Lover's boost.

He's tough!

Shaking his head, Cain helped Anastasia up.

He had no intention of killing him.

After all, you can never have too many cannon fodder.

If he killed everyone, wouldn't he have to fight the priest alone then?

Fifteen minutes later.

Infirmary.

"That female prisoner just lost a bit too much blood; she'll recover in a few days. But that male prisoner..."

When speaking of Anastasia , Miss Nurse paused for a moment, then said incredulously, "He has about 7 or 8 broken ribs, thankfully none pierced his internal organs. He also has a slight concussion, so he probably won't be able to get out of bed for a week or two."

"Then I'll leave them to you." Cain handed over a few more Franklins.

Miss Nurse also smiled as she accepted them.

"No problem."

After all this, Cain walked out of the infirmary and headed towards the women's prison.

By this time, it was already evening, and F.F. had returned to her cell due to the time.

The entire corridor leading to the women's prison was also empty...
