A few days had passed. The police identified the owner of the number that sent the message and moved toward the location.
This location turned out to be the coordinates of the prison cell where Lukas was held.

Indeed, when they arrived, the place was correct. Assuming that Lukas was responsible, they opened an investigation on him.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7XXplHxXOz
The police called out, “Is Lukas here?”
Lukas got up from the ground. He was surprised to see the police and his wife Emma. For a moment, he felt joy — maybe he would be released…
But instead, a new investigation was to be opened against him.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYlMGAVk903
Emma looked at Lukas angrily. Her face was full of hatred.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfNKb14sqR8
Without understanding what was happening, Lukas walked toward the officers and said,
“Here I am… Am I being released, or…?”
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhZ7ZaGWcMT
One of the officers replied,
“No. You will serve more time. You are sentenced to a heavier punishment for impersonating your son and tricking us with that message.”
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGFdKUycpBt
Lukas said in shock,
“What message? I didn’t do anything.”
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNUYpQJDNgL
The officer looked him up and down. Judging by his appearance and condition, he looked at Lukas with disgust and didn’t believe him at all.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLMgIyDmhUI

444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnINyItsGK1
Lukas no longer knew what to say.
No one was left who believed him.
No one…
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZgqwvRGCqJ
Days seemed to stop passing. Lukas had gotten used to the torment he faced in prison.
Wake up, prepare breakfast, tidy all the beds, massage Frank’s head… so many tasks. If he didn’t do them, Frank would abuse him.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2a9X1nJeyR
This situation was truly painful, but if he retaliated, things would only get worse.

One month later
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjC7hLONoV7
It was Monday. Lukas would usually wake up early and do his tasks, but today was visitation day with Emma. So he did nothing.
Frank had bruised his eye and split his brow. He was going to the visit in that condition. Despite everything, he still loved his wife Emma…
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKomUX9Rcjd
Emma hadn’t seen him for a while. This time she felt pity for her husband; his condition, the wounds on his eye, the dullness on his face… She was sad for the first time.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpnb9xZeHB5
Emma: “What happened to you like this?”
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDZCM84vnbh
Lukas: “Daily routine.”
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQsvniykX6B
Emma: “What?”
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSXoapgnvVW
Lukas: “Never mind. You talk.”
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWY7zL302ie
Emma: “About what?”
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsm0y77VPRp
Lukas: “Has Jake been found? Why did he shoot me?”
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4SqsdpcHcQ
In a trembling and sorrowful voice, Emma said:
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Tj3ZHR62X
Emma: “Jake… was found dead.”
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnlzTIMIKH0
Hearing this, Lukas fainted. Although Jake was not his biological son, he loved him like his own.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwMrDO5uLpj
After waking up shortly after, he immediately began asking questions:
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQawdM6ywju
Lukas: “How did he die? When? Who did it?”
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGESBLvGzDK
Emma: “He jumped from a mountainous area… He committed suicide. Our son… committed suicide…”
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡamfV9lJiYy
Emma began sobbing uncontrollably.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3TLG5ngSdr
Police: “That’s enough, the visit is over.”
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCnQxzccvcw
As Emma left, she winked at Lukas and made a hand sign. When they first got married, they used to show each other a ‘lock’ hand sign. Whenever something happened, they did that. So there was definitely something going on, but they couldn’t speak because of the police presence.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCFXCjg0eqA
At first, Lukas didn’t understand — but then he realized…
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe6eoxns7oo
There was definitely something behind this.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6POWb2omzP
Not knowing what to do, Lukas asked the police to allow him to call an old friend.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7KotaW9gd6
“A person should find a friend to lean on when they have troubles.”
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo28kqEczZI
Lukas’s friend Alex was his blood brother.
One day while playing a match in the neighborhood, Lukas fell and cut his hand.
Alex started laughing. Lukas didn’t understand why.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH0aYiuiTUS
Lukas: “Why are you laughing?”
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnyQhlaWEB2
Alex: “Now we’re blood brothers,” he said and took a piece of glass and cut his wrist.
Lukas looked on in surprise, not understanding.
Alex held Lukas’s hand and pressed his bleeding wrist to Lukas’s bleeding hand, saying:
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLC851BOna0
Alex: “No matter what happens, we are blood brothers.”
From that day on, their friendship lasted a lifetime.

Since Lukas had just met with Emma, he wasn’t allowed to call again by phone. But he needed to call.
He decided to ask Frank for something for the first time.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9AkVRDdpto
Lukas: “I need a phone.”
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCwe8sPIfoL
Frank: “Haha, why?”
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvy1ooBOvT5
Lukas: “Leave that to me. I’ll do whatever you want.”
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4CIQfL5twK
Frank took a phone out of his pocket.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT6pLs40e9y
Frank: “Here, take it.”
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUg39GcUTKy
Lukas asked in surprise:
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHpfP6jKbMC
Lukas: “No conditions?”
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLkNIf2b8jZ
Frank: “I heard your conversations. You’re in a tough spot. Family is everything,” he said quietly, holding back tears and walked away.
How did he hear the conversation?
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrIan8f3SIF
Frank was probably someone devoted to his family…
I wonder what he had experienced to end up here?
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhoQl4g39fZ
As soon as Lukas took the phone, he immediately went to the restroom and started calling.
No one answered the phone.
He had lost hope…
Until the phone rang a while later.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtpFh8aslE7
Alex: “Hello, who is this?”
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLka9tcskVl
Lukas: “I’m… Lukas. Your blood brother.”
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4z4aVz8V5D
Alex: “What?! My friend…”
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP6UkqtzZDj
Lukas: “Alex, you have to get me out of prison.”
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMxdfxhQ5Jn
Alex: “What prison?!”
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqNLRTWDVvZ
Lukas: “I’ll tell you later. I have to get out of this damn place.”
