Marashi completely misunderstood the logic of survival in an American prison.
Here, if you are innocent, the other inmates will bully you to death.
But if you are a felon, and a felon with a background, then the other inmates here, not to say they must treat you like an ancestor, at least they know you are not to be messed with, so they stay away from you as much as possible.
If Ma Lan admitted that she was a drug dealer, the gang would definitely stay away from her.
After all, in America, drug dealers are synonymous with desperadoes, and they never act alone, they have a ruthless, armed-to-the-teeth organisation behind them.
However, Ma Lan was afraid that people would really mistake her for a drug dealer, so when she got nervous, she revealed the truth.
This one was tantamount to personally pressing her place in this prison cell to the floor.
That was why, as soon as the red-haired woman heard what she had said, she slapped her without thinking.
And this red-haired woman was not satisfied after slapping Marashi, she rushed forward with a big stride, staring at Marashi with a deadly stare and said seriously, “I tell you, in my place, if you want to suffer less, be a good boy and ask your family to deposit more money in your account, I have a lot of things to buy, but there is not enough money in the account, this is your chance to show it, if your family deposits enough money for you , you’ll have less to suffer here.”
After saying that, she remembered something, grabbed Marashi’s collar and continued, “Oh yes, a friendly reminder, the prison guard in charge of this cell block, Jessica Brownstone, sells cigarettes privately, she sells American Spirit cigarettes for forty dollars a pack, starting at one, but her cigarettes cannot be purchased through your account in the prison, you need to inform your family on the outside and hand over cash into her hands before she will bring the cigarettes in.”
Ma Lan said with a nervous face, “I …… I don’t smoke ……”
The red-haired woman sneered and slapped Ma Lan across the face again, cursing angrily, “Stupid, you don’t smoke I do! Starting tomorrow, you’re going to get Jessica Brownstone to give me a pack of American Spirit cigarettes every day, remember, three packs! Me and these little sisters of mine, we’ve been having a bit of a tobacco shortage lately, so you’d better have some sense, or I’ll make sure you do!”
Ma Lan instantly cried, “I’ve just been locked up, I haven’t had a chance to contact my family yet, where am I going to get you a packet of cigarettes!”
“Then I don’t care!” The red-haired woman said coldly, “Anyway, if I don’t see an American spirit by tomorrow night, then I’ll beat you to death!”
With that, she added a warning, “Oh yeah, I forgot to tell you, if you dare go to the wardens and tell on me, I’ll stick the sharpened toothbrush handle down your throat, we’ll see about that if you don’t believe me!”
Ma Lan burst into tears of fear.
At that moment, a young Chinese woman came forward and whispered, “Auntie, this redhead is Chloe, she has been in Bedford Hills Correctional Institution for five years and is a well-known prison bully here, not only does she have a lot of followers in our cell, but there are also many people in other cells who work with her. ”
When Ma Lan saw her compatriot, she cried, “She is too unreasonable, why should she slap me with two big mouths? …… Who did I provoke? …… I am so aggrieved… …”
