Chapter 284 - He Does It Again
Jhonny had absolutely no idea about what to do after he got the metal cutters , he had no idea about the layout of the place either.
On one side SMG was progressively making his way to the basement , killing guards after guards , solving problems and on the other side Jhonny just kept fumbling his way to unexpected circumstances.
If someone was to explain the enigma named Jhonny English , they would have only one phrase to describe the man " Expect the unexpected ".
Nothing made sense with Jhonny , who could have ever thought in their wildest dreams that the man would get his hands stuck in a metal toilet which would force the guards to practically escort him to the third floor and give him potent metal cutters .
Like while strategizing before the prison escape event , most would learn skills like lockpicking , or stealth , or how to take out guards while being unarmed and the sort , who would make a strategy like ... Get your hands stuck in a metal toilet and unhinge it from the plumbing system.... The entire thing could only be defined as absurd.
Was Jhonny a mastermind? Was he just a lucky fool? Nobody knew the answer.

( 14 hours into the event )
SMG had finally made his way to the basement , he was the current leader , closest to the exit. He was thoroughly surprised after learning about the layout of the prison. It was a one massive building with only one way in and one way out in the basement.
Apart from that it also had a helipad on the terrace , those were the only two routes one could take to escape. However going to the upper floors was suicide , it required one to move Through floor two , which was basically the most heavily guarded floor of the prison where the solitary confinement blocks were in place for the most nefarious criminals with the highest strength.
The third floor was the recreational floor of sorts , with the bath and a reading room , and rooms for other jobs like kitchen duty , mechanical engineering room , bathroom cleaning and the like. It had the least security. However it was still impossible to get to the terrace . As it was not blocked by seven inch thick steel gate with biometric lock , one cannot get through it without military grade bolt cutters .... Hence SMG chose the basement route.
The problem with the basement route was that , the solo exit was heavily guarded , SMG had spent nearly an hour trying to figure out how to get out , when he suddenly heard gunshots. Surprisingly someone else had made their way to the basement as well , about 20 meters from his hiding spot , someone was shot dead.
SMG did not let this affect his nerves , he patiently waited for his chance , which he got , when a supplies truck rolled into the basement , and the guards started to unload the shipment.
SMG stealthily made his way to the nearest pillar to where the truck was , his plan was to somehow get in the truck as it started to leave.?Calculating carefully , it was a bit risky , and he would need to take out two guards to get in unnoticed.
What he did not know was , that the inmate from country G , the one that called out Jhonny and him before the game started was right across the other side pillar to where SMG was , thinking about the same thing.
Just as the last box was unloaded , they both suddenly sprang into action , taking one guard out each .
Both of them were shocked to see each other , but the transport van was going to leave soon , as they heard the engine start , if they fought here and the van left they would be stranded. If they fought and made too much noise they would be discovered. Pressed hard for options , SMG quickly said " Truce ". And put his hand out , the other man looked reluctant , but he shook it nonetheless as both of them boarded the van silently.
Just as expected , the van drove outside the facility , they needed to go only a few more meters before they would have escaped. Sighing in releif , SMG finally smiled and let his guard down for a second.
It turned out to be his fatal mistake , as the man from country G , suddenly pulled out a gun hidden inside his outfit and shot SMG square in the head. Saying "?Sorry , never trust anyone ".
Hence SMG , because of an unexpected betrayal , died just a few meters before the safe line , however the idiot who shot him did not fare much better either. Because of the shot , the driver stopped the van immediately , and the man was forced to come out of the backside of the van .
He did not expect there to be much trouble , he thought he would just kill the driver and sprint to the safe line , however little did he expect that the driver was also a officer.
The moment he stepped out of the van , 3 bullets penetrated him square in the chest. He died only 17 meters away from the safe line!

Aaron Smith : " Whyyyyy , whyyyyy did the stupid man shoot? , They had a truce , they would have crossed the finish line together , why did he have to play dirty ? ".
Martin Tyler : he needs to watchout Aaron , the driver is also s police officer , an armed one at that.
Aaron Smith :?he comes out of the back of the van , ohhh I don't think he knows where the police officer is at all , he is showing him his back. The cop is closing in , less than 5 Meters between him and the suspect.
( The man turns , only to be shot three times in the chest )
Martin Tyler : There it is , a horrific end , Karma came really quick for him didnt it? Dead before crossing the line , trying to up the Japanese the idiot lost his life as well . I hope he is happy now!
Aaron Smith : Stupid Martin , plain stupid , his twisted sense of self has costed his country a medal , I hear he is a criminal on parole , I don't think things will end well for him after this slip up.
Martin Tyler : Well only a few more hours to go , will anyone manage to win the silver medal ? Or will we only have a single winner for this event?
Aaron Smith : It remains to be found out , stay tuned !
