PRI Chapter 58: Getting Closer to the Goal Bit by Bit
🕑 Added 2025-08-23 10:29:02 +0000 UTC"Boss, we seized $32,500 from the drug-involved bar that the prisoner provided information about yesterday."
"We also destroyed 5 kilograms of drugs."
In the office, the burly James was reporting the latest operation results.
Lind nodded, "Nobody saw you, right?"
"No, we raided at midnight. There were only two underlings guarding the store, and we knocked them unconscious with electric shock."
"Very good." Lind affirmed the tactical squad's mission results.
"How's Alvaro doing?"
James answered, "Alvaro and Wolf, the new boss of the Grande Gang, are currently dealing with drug route issues. No special actions for now."
"Hmm, don't contact Alvaro recently. Wait for him to reach out to us first."
Since Sheriff Smith's death, the Grande Gang's drug routes had encountered problems.
Because the new sheriff was very difficult to deal with. His superior was in opposition to Sheriff Smith's original faction, so they had confiscated a batch of the Grande Gang's goods.
So Wolf had been using money offensives recently, trying to reopen the drug channels.
Of course, this situation would only last for a while at most. Lind didn't believe American police could watch drug trafficking profits slip through their fingers.
Even if this sheriff didn't like drug dealing, his boss would force him to bow his head and open a path for drug dealers.
So after Wolf reopened the drug trafficking routes, Border Prison would still face pressure from the Grande Gang.
In fact, the Grande Gang had already conducted several acts of revenge during this period.
Multiple stores were bombed, multiple villas were burned.
Other rival gangs, or gangs involved in drug business, all suffered major strikes.
Some gang bosses were even directly shot and killed on the streets.
This series of incidents, even without television coverage, everyone could smell the bloody gunpowder in the air.
From Lind's perspective, knowing the inside story, the Grande Gang was preparing to clean up the underground drug market and monopolize it.
He didn't expect that after killing Gian, an even more troublesome guy would emerge.
Lind did want James to lead the tactical squad in a decapitation operation, making this ambitious Wolf meet an untimely end.
Unfortunately, this new boss was extremely cautious, always surrounded by multiple underlings, and never spent the night in the same place.
Even Alvaro, who was trusted by him, didn't know where he slept at night or where he planned to go during the day.
Each time he only received temporary notifications to rush to certain locations.
Sometimes he would even be called up in the middle of the night to help.
As a result, Alvaro now had some neurasthenia and an inexplicable fear of phone rings.
When Lind heard about this, he laughed rather unkindly, because he had experienced this feeling of deadly serial calls when working in his previous life.
Especially when he had finally fallen asleep but was woken up by his boss calling to make PowerPoint presentations, he wanted to twist off his boss's head and kick it like a ball.
"Alright, boss, is there anything else?"
Hearing James's words, Lind snapped back to attention and thought for a moment, "Let's recruit a few more people for the tactical squad."
Currently the tactical squad only had 6 members. Although each had their role, dealing with gangs with many people was still quite difficult.
Especially since Lind didn't have many tranquilizer spray cans in his hands. To snatch food from the tiger's mouth of gangs, he had to rely on hard strength and numbers.
"Recruit how many more?"
"Four." Lind calculated the cost, "For some small tasks, we can split into two small teams."
"Understood, boss."
"Go ahead and get busy then."
James took his orders and turned to leave.
Lind looked at the calendar on the desk. Half a month had passed since the ACA conference.
During this half month, he had been working to improve the guards' loyalty.
Under the dual incentive of bonuses and recognition, 4 people had successively reached maximum loyalty.
Only 2 people away from the mission target of 10 people.
These 4 people were prison doctor Joe Locke, cook Hook Ang, guard Parker Zorn, and guard Gian Dickinson.
Their new professions were also different.
For example, prison doctor Joe Locke unlocked the new profession of Chief of Surgery.
[Chief of Surgery: Surgical diagnosis accuracy +20%, surgery success rate +10%]
Although the numerical values didn't seem high, for a doctor, providing a 10% surgery success rate was already quite impressive.
If Joe Locke returned to work at a hospital now, he would probably quickly become the signature surgeon of a small private hospital.
Cook Hook Ang unlocked the new profession of Pastry Chef.
[Pastry Chef: Pastry deliciousness +20%, innovative pastry success rate +10%]
Besides these two, the professions unlocked by the guards didn't exceed their original scope.
Parker Zorn, the unlucky guy who had once been attacked by the Grande Gang, unlocked the same Guardian profession as Carter.
Gian Dickinson, the C-level guard who joined later, unlocked the same Interrogator profession as Cohen.
However, Gian's upgraded skill was different from Cohen's. He possessed advanced intimidation skills.
This skill was very suitable for educating prisoners who newly joined the prison.
For example, yesterday, Lind personally witnessed Dickinson face a provocative prisoner, using physical intimidation combined with verbal humiliation on the spot, scaring the prisoner until he wet himself and bowed his head in admission of fault.
Lind couldn't help but wonder what the effect would be if Dickinson and Cohen joined forces to interrogate a prisoner together but currently the prison didn't have such extremely vicious characters.
Having finished with the guards' loyalty, it was time for the prisoners' fear values.
Thanks to James and Cohen working together, another 8 lucky individuals successfully achieved completion after enjoying treatment in Interrogation Room No. 1.
Only 5 people away from the mission target of 20 people.
These prisoners had also confessed quite a bit of information, such as bars hiding drugs, black shops privately selling guns, and immigrant trading centers dealing in human organ trafficking.
Lind had already sent James to sweep the first two places, together yielding $80,000 but he temporarily hadn't ordered a sweep of the last one.
Because according to prisoner confessions, this place had more than 15 underlings on guard duty every day, with particularly tight security from the streets to the villa.
The reason security measures were so comprehensive was naturally because the clients for these organ supplies were wealthy Americans.
They were generous with money, with organs selling for anywhere from $50,000 to $1 million depending on their importance.
Therefore, to move against this place required gathering sufficient manpower and finding a good opportunity.
This was one of the reasons why Lind had James recruit more personnel.
Big business naturally required big investment!
Lind sat in his chair thinking while spinning his pen. Just as he was sorting through these matters, the phone suddenly rang.
"Hello."
"Avery, my good friend, I've missed you so much!"
"What good news? Really?"
"That's wonderful! Avery, you must find time to come over, I'll thank you properly."
Hanging up the phone, Lind clenched his fist and swung it, "Excellent, the government finally sent the money!"
After several months of approval processes, Border Prison's prisoner funds, totaling $6.96 million, were finally going to be transferred to the company's account.
