NovelEnglish"Like you said, Fifth Prison is where many mentally ill criminals are imprisoned. Perhaps that man is also mentally unstable, which
was why he claimed that he was sane." Jonah wasn't too bothered. In a cold voice, he continued, "It's just like how drunk people
would never admit that they've had too much to drink."
"There's a huge difference between the two," Alyssa interjected, drawing both Sean and Jonah's attention. "In fact, people with
mental illness often believe everyone else is insane, while they are the only sane ones in the room."
Sean's eyes lit up. "That makes sense!"
Jonah nodded. "Yeah, that sounds right."
"According to what Sean described earlier, that man was very articulate and didn't seem like he was mentally ill. Moreover, he
seized an opportune tto dash out before Mr. Steven. This suggests he had been waiting for the right moment, indicating he
didn't want to miss his rare chance."

Alyssa then asked, "Sean, what did your brother do in the end?"
"Steven mentioned that the prison guards dragged that prisoner away before he could get a clear understanding of what was
going on. The guards even claimed that the prisoner was absolutely insane. In short, he was more violent than the other
prisoners."
A look of dismay cacross Jonah's face. "That's strange. Since Mr. Steven was hired to provide legal assistance to prisoners,
every prisoner has a right to consult with him and to have their questions answered. Why was that prisoner forcibly restrained?"
Alyssa lowered her eyes and remained silent.
Sean continued, "Afterward, Steven couldn't shake the feeling that something was off. He used a contact from the courthouse to
check the case files on that prisoner. But guess what? They couldn't access the files. It turns out they were only available with the
Attorney General's approval!
"All other criminals’ case files were accessible while his was the only one that couldn't be accessed. Not only that, it's being kept
under strict control. Doesn't this sound really strange to you?"
After a moment of silence, Jonah asked, "What is that prisoner serving tfor? This should be something that we can find out, at
the very least."
"He's in prison for murder, and not the murder of just one person. According to the other inmates, his victims were two women,
and his murders were quite gruesand brutal.
"But Steven's description of the criminal was that he's not particularly tall, he looks thin and sallow, and he has a congenital
disability in one of his legs. He really didn't look like a brutal murderer."
Speaking of a brutal murderer, Alyssa was reminded of Justin's uncle, Zachary, who was also being imprisoned in Fifth Prison.
Coincidentally, that man was also mentally ill and a murderer who had killed two women.
Being the sharp-witted and quick-thinking woman she was, Alyssa always considered things more in-depth than others, especially
when it cto coincidences like these.

This was because she did not believe that there could be so many coincidences in the world.
Subsequently, she had even pretended to be a caretaker at the nursing hto care for Newton so that she could meet with
Jasper and steal a few extra glances at him.
Coincidences and fate?
Those were simply plots that were birthed out of her love for Jasper.
"Sean, find stto go to Fifth Prison to learn more about that prisoner's background. Also, try finding out how Zachary is
doing in prison.
A serious expression cacross Sean's face. "Got it, Ms. Alyssa."
Alyssa curled her lips slightly and narrowed her eyes. "Of course. What if he's actually innocent?"
Jonah paused, his gaze deepening as he understood her unspoken thoughts. In the end, they both thought along the slines.
He seemed to realize the true meaning behind her actions.
