  Dudian went insane and became crazy.

  He shouted out nonsense and beat the cell mates almost to death.

  Two guards became furious when they came over to see Dudian's cell mates lay on the ground almost dead. One of them took out a stick from the craft and opened the cell to attack Dudian. However, Dudian didn't even give him chance as he threw punches and kicks at him.

  Dudian roared as he punched towards the second guard.

  His strength was tremendous. Both of the guards were knocked to the ground. This scene caused all the other prisoners to become stunned. No one thought that with the spikes pierced onto him he could come up with such a vigorous force.

  One of the guards got up and ran. Soon, another five guards came and attacked Dudian.

  He was beaten and later dragged out from the promenade.

  More than an hour later the guards dragged back Dudian's bloody body and threw him back to his cell.

  A few days later as dudian's injury got better he began shouting again. Fatty who had restored a bit of strength in the cell was knocked down to ground and beaten to death. The guards who were bringing the meals saw this scene and rushed to stop.

  Dudian fought back with them and even overturned the trolley while he was scuffling with guards.

  Guards saw that both of them couldn't suppress Dudian so one of them ran away to call for back up.

  This time again, Dudian was dragged out and brought back after the torture. However, the threw him to a separate cell.

  "Damn, this kid has gone insane."

  "Why don't they give him to other section?"

  The guards were angry but all they could do was to torture him. Actually, they would avoid killing prisoners at all costs. In fact, they couldn't treat prisoners as disposable materials. The torture was a small matter as it could be covered up. But in case of a death of a prisoner, the people above them would ask for proper explanations. So in case even if there were people outside who wanted prisoners die, they wouldn't go for it as it didn't matter who or what was the clients background.

  Moreover, they had seen many prisoners like Dudian who couldn't cope up with prison life and gone crazy through the years.

  People would get depressed in this dark prison day after day. It would often take a normal person three to five years for that depression to occur. However, some with weak willpower would go crazy and some would even commit suicide. So it was not surprising to see Dudian act the way he did.

  Moreover, no matter how tough or power Dudian was, they were aware of his age. At the end of the day, for them Dudian was a child. Inevitably his heart wouldn't be as strong as an adult's.

  Guards reduced Dudian's daily food to only a black bread while he was in solitary confinement.

  Dudian's body gradually thinned down. His cheeckbones were protruing and his face was similar to a skeleton.

  Fortunately, he wasn't missing water.

  Because of availability of water rarely someone starved to death.

  Dudian was still acting insane while he was held in solitary confinement. He was beating steel columns or tearing mats from time to time. Over time his symptoms gradually eased down. He would occasionally attack but would curse at others.

  The prisoners were aware that Dudian had gone made and didn't care much about his cursing. But at the same time they looked at him with regret as if seeing their own future in Dudian's present.

  After he became a bit stable, the guards assigned him back to weekly work. After all, prisoners were not meant to stay idle.

  Another six months passed and its was acutally second year of Dudian's imprisonment.

  However, Dudian's madness become more serious. Sometimes he would hit his head against the wall and self-mutilate himself. Other times he would threw back the bread at guards and curse them.
