Central City.

Iron Mountain Prison.

Unlike other prison inmates, Shi Nate has attempted several escapes, only to have them thwarted by the Flash and recaptured. Therefore, he is fortunate enough to no longer enjoy outdoor time while in Iron Mountain Prison.

Furthermore, the small space in the prison he was in was special, with walls made of superconductors, specifically designed to confine criminals with superpowers. Although Shi Nate did not have superpowers, his behavior and numerous egregious escape attempts had extended his prison sentence to 130 years, and only this type of cell could keep him in place.

Nearby, other Midtown superpowered criminals were also present; every Metahuman here had been captured by the Flash.

Almost every one of them gained superhuman abilities, then went on to rob banks and do other illegal things, only to be caught by the Flash and suffer extreme misfortune.

He only robbed a bank to make some money and improve his life; he didn't Destruction the world. What a bastard.

Through the glass superconductor, Ba Di saw the superpowered prisoners looking utterly bored and lifeless.

Heat Wave.

Weather Wizard.

Mirror Master.

Trickster.

Captain Boomerang.

Top.

He had met and dealt with several of them before, though those dealings involved verbal sparring, especially with the Heat Wave, where they were at odds and got into fights – not a good thing.

Ba Di's eyes swept over the villains, including some with superpowers he didn't understand. After all, he had been captured for some time, and it was normal for some newcomers to appear, forgetting his glorious past (several prison breaks only to be caught by the Flash), and not to pay homage to him.

As Ba Di's gaze swept over the numerous villains, several of them glared back fiercely, demonstrating that even in the special superpowered prison, they believed their gaze still held intimidation.

The superconducting glass blocked their voices; speaking here, their voices couldn't get through.

"Dinner's ready."

A loudspeaker was speaking in a corner of the prison cell.

Immediately, food was transported in via conveyor belts from pipes that had been blocked by several checkpoints.

Some stewed potatoes with meat, green vegetables, steamed buns, and a big orange—it was pretty good.

The villains, who had been looking utterly bored and lifeless, snapped out of their daze on their beds, grabbed the food that had been brought in, and started eating.

Ba Di took the plate and sat cross-legged on the bed next to him, his eyes constantly scanning the outside environment, observing the rotation time of the two cameras.

He picked up the steamed bun and ate it heartily. The bun was dry and didn't taste very good. His face was calm, his eyes darting around, observing as he ate his fill.

In the time to come, a lot of energy will be needed.

After finishing lunch, he ate the large orange and left it on his plate. Then, Ba Di placed the plate on the conveyor belt and let it be automatically transported away.

'Knock knock...'

When the camera circled around and didn't capture the image of the Ba Di Prison, Ba Di suddenly banged twice on the superconducting glass wall, drawing the attention of all the bored villains who were staring at each other.

Although they couldn't hear anything, Ba Di's actions were clearly intended to attract their attention.

Heat Wave: "Idiot!"

Captain Boomerang: "???"

"What are you doing?"

The Trickster raised an eyebrow, his eyes gleaming. Shi Nate was a habitual escapee, and the clever man had an idea.

"???"

The Weather Wizard was drenched in water.

When the camera quickly turned to face Ba Di, Ba Di stopped what he was doing and did not move.

When the camera was away from him, Ba Di used his body to block the camera in his cell, quickly looked down, breathed white mist on the glass wall, and wrote the words "Escape" backwards, so that the villains looking at him could see it. Then, when the camera turned back, he wiped it away with his hand and acted as if nothing had happened.

The villains exchanged bewildered glances.

They knew about Shi Nate's escape history; ordinary prisons couldn't hold him, which is why they put him in the super-powered prison.

No one has ever been able to escape from this special super-powered prison, which is unlike ordinary prisons.

This prison is designed specifically to confine people with special abilities; it's so well-designed that there's absolutely no way they could escape.

"Yes, Shi Nate has a great idea."

"I offer my moral support."

"What do you need to do?"

"Take me with you."

The villains, looking at each other in bewilderment, started to have a sudden thought: If we can escape from prison, please take me with you.

Go outside, rob a bank, get rich, eat and drink well, sleep with beautiful women every night. Who would want to stay in Iron Mountain Prison? They are all extraordinary people with superpowers, who consider themselves superior to ordinary people. How could they endure the prison environment?

If we stay here any longer, we'll all rot away.

Seeing Shi Nate preparing to escape, everyone got excited and seemed ready to be injected with adrenaline, their eyes bulging and bloodshot.

We must escape from prison.

However.

The prison break they were hoping for couldn't happen so quickly. All eyes were on Shi Nate, when Shi Nate suddenly collapsed to the ground, convulsing like he was having an epileptic seizure, his eyes rolling back and foaming at the mouth.

This is...

Should they feign illness and transfer to a state prison for special treatment for sick prisoners? Or should they notify the family to apply for medical parole?

That was a really fast act! Where did the foaming at the mouth come from?...

Monitoring room.

In fact, every super-powered prison is equipped with advanced devices for simple examination of prisoners. In the monitoring room, you can see the physical health of these super-powered criminals.

There have been instances of Metahuman feigning illness in an attempt to escape prison, only to be discovered and now placed in a more heavily guarded, segregated area.

The alarm blared shrilly.

"Master, a preliminary examination in R15 Metahuman Cell revealed a prisoner who has collapsed on the ground, with limbs twitching, eyes looking upwards, and drooling. It is suspected to be a sudden epileptic seizure!"

The prison guard in charge of monitoring reported.

On the other side, the chubby prison warden, whose belly was slightly protruding and whose figure was showing signs of obesity, frowned. Epilepsy does not directly cause death, but if there is no timely rescue during an epileptic seizure, there is a chance of death, although the chance is very small.

If it's an act, and it's another prison break, then that's troublesome.

Considering the greater responsibility he had to bear, he did not take any further action.

The prison warden sneered, "He's faking illness to try and escape. Keep an eye on him."

"Director, it doesn't seem like it. His epilepsy lasted for more than three minutes, and his life is in danger. His vital signs are starting to decline. The prisoner's convulsions are gradually slowing down. Director, the patient's vital signs have dropped drastically."

"Director, his vital signs are starting to... disappear..."

The prison guard reported with a tense expression, as if this was... a death sentence.

The police chief watched the screen. Shi Nate was twitching erratically from time to time. Even if he was faking it, he was faking it too well. Where did the foam at the mouth come from? His eyes were almost rolling back, and his limbs were twitching involuntarily with weakness.

His chubby face was contorted with rage as he gritted his teeth.

"Damn it! They're always causing me trouble."

"Bring an emergency medic, bring weapons, prevent escape, open the super prison, and give him first aid."
