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.
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIPcZxp0iUo
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.
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBPlrWWehwu
Emma looked at Lukas angrily. Her face was full of hatred.
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBroboGdev2
Without understanding what was happening, Lukas walked toward the officers and said,
“Here I am… Am I being released, or…?”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQQ0lCGWfg8
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.”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡck2bqg1q91
Lukas said in shock,
“What message? I didn’t do anything.”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWEfhIaCvbT
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.
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbK5ZxBhQrm
———
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAPhCywmB4y
Lukas no longer knew what to say.
No one was left who believed him.
No one…
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn7nFNfnv4q
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.
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcI3K2K7maX
This situation was truly painful, but if he retaliated, things would only get worse.

One month later
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7hq1sGV3GA
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…
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFIqkIsLWTa
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.
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwxpzDpI8WK
Emma: “What happened to you like this?”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE7FKshsUqS
Lukas: “Daily routine.”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUewnFmOj4C
Emma: “What?”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡol31Q672Ij
Lukas: “Never mind. You talk.”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUkgdEmqJCv
Emma: “About what?”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdBzOw60MYf
Lukas: “Has Jake been found? Why did he shoot me?”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSFGYYEnyqH
In a trembling and sorrowful voice, Emma said:
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw1m6wIs4dF
Emma: “Jake… was found dead.”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtlDfI6JAzx
Hearing this, Lukas fainted. Although Jake was not his biological son, he loved him like his own.
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyLzGsSQeLj
After waking up shortly after, he immediately began asking questions:
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEqF9BhS6ZD
Lukas: “How did he die? When? Who did it?”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnHkNIc0nVL
Emma: “He jumped from a mountainous area… He committed suicide. Our son… committed suicide…”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJMtS9W5rbV
Emma began sobbing uncontrollably.
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZKvSOSUQT1
Police: “That’s enough, the visit is over.”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzyIiBNMBhR
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.
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlQxKNw8JhG
At first, Lukas didn’t understand — but then he realized…
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7cAQaF5i0M
There was definitely something behind this.
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJfEqlsinSY
Not knowing what to do, Lukas asked the police to allow him to call an old friend.
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqfKqQCwDb9
“A person should find a friend to lean on when they have troubles.”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPt2OjEeCcC
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.
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNFLLj3ayJt
Lukas: “Why are you laughing?”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0qZ2egfLnY
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:
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL4FZcwpm56
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.
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr20sHIdWa0
Lukas: “I need a phone.”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwahObIcmq4
Frank: “Haha, why?”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTxveoUeCC1
Lukas: “Leave that to me. I’ll do whatever you want.”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeKWYMnZw53
Frank took a phone out of his pocket.
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3SCTEDqCNb
Frank: “Here, take it.”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAQxjJMdLx9
Lukas asked in surprise:
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHMDbDYtXbu
Lukas: “No conditions?”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX8jM24VnWX
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?
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBaarWuc5gc
Frank was probably someone devoted to his family…
I wonder what he had experienced to end up here?
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL7QLcKZiRh
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.
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5XQqLYPkZ2
Alex: “Hello, who is this?”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZxqcUzUD0a
Lukas: “I’m… Lukas. Your blood brother.”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYLhoNYtRhd
Alex: “What?! My friend…”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0EbaWBTcYW
Lukas: “Alex, you have to get me out of prison.”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsUG7Kp2gYn
Alex: “What prison?!”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeXmMs1anAE
Lukas: “I’ll tell you later. I have to get out of this damn place.”
