Chapter 1264 Death of the Counselor

"Kill him! Kill him!!!"

A tsunami-like shout came from the distance, and there was a dead silence in the courtroom.

The judge who pushed in the door sat at the top and looked down: "The comprehensive trial of more than 900 cases involving the lawyer's terrorist attack begins here."

Court session.

"Kill him! Kill him!!!"

Those reverberating sounds gradually grew. As the prosecutor finished his speech, the judge banged the hammer and solemnly asked: "Suspect Huaishi, do you have anything else to say?"

The judge in the wheelchair just smiled and closed his eyes tiredly.

"kill him!"

Outside the court, the surging crowd was still shouting wildly.

From early morning to noon.

Huai Shi leaned on the wheelchair and exhaled tiredly under the oxygen mask.

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"

It seemed like countless people were shouting in unison. In the procession on the street, faces turned red. They raised the signs in their hands and waved excitedly towards the camera lens.

"The whole team is in place."

In the crowd, on high buildings, and in the streets, plainclothes or heavily armed guards and private soldiers looked around with vigilance at every face around them.

“All departments are on alert, don’t relax – screen all facial data…”

The hoarse voice echoed in the communication channel.

"Judgement! We want to judge!"

In the angry parade, uniform shouts were heard: "Death penalty! Death penalty! Death penalty!"

And Huaishi looked at the dust dancing in front of the skylight in the afternoon sun.

Startled and lost in thought.

The prosecutor spoke, submitted the dossier, listed the evidence, questioned witnesses, the jury asked questions, and the defendant spoke... It seemed like all the tedious links passed by in the blink of an eye.

The final step is already around the corner.

Countless noisy shouts and roars gradually approached from outside, like a tide, drowning everything.

In this almost frozen atmosphere, everyone held their breath subconsciously, and only the judge struck the final hammer.

"In the name of the great Holy City, the laws and courts of the Holy Holy City, I hereby declare that in view of the defendant's numerous criminal records and extremely bad social impact..."

The deep voice pronounced:

"——The death penalty shall be executed immediately!"

In the brief silence, countless people stared wide-eyed.

Immediately afterwards, the sound of ice cracking spread in the hallucination, because there was a sound like a bursting embankment, echoing in the streets and alleys of the Holy City.

cheer.

Shouts of excitement, hoarse roars, ecstatic celebrations.

Under the huge screen in the square, in the cubicle of the office, in the dark low-rise area, every pair of eyes widened, leaning towards the screen, trying to confirm the authenticity of the news.

"Death penalty! Death penalty!! Death penalty!!!"

Those excited voices echoed among the crowd, and finally turned into uniform shouts, conveying inner joy between every smile.

It was like seeing justice being done.

Sharing this joy and happiness with each other, no matter the reason or the past.

In the living room on the lower floor, the TV screen was turned off.

Guo Shouque dropped the remote control and stood up without interest.

"Well?"

Mo San, who was immersed in cleaning the barrel of the gun, raised his head in confusion, "Uncle Zong, don't you want to read it?"

"They are all meaningless things. If you have this time, why not go around the fields twice."

The old man clasped his hands behind his back and walked slowly towards the shallow lake in the darkness. However, after going out and turning the corner, his steps hesitated slightly.

His eyes turned to the young man sitting on the steps, bending over to sharpen the edge of his gun.

Sweat fell from his naked upper body, and his hair became wet. His muscles bulged from his back with his movements, and his lowered eyes were so focused.

"Huh?" Guo Shouche asked, "What are you doing?"

"I haven't practiced for a few days. My third sister helped me find one today, so I wanted to catch up on it. As a result, I got so absorbed in it that I lost track of time."

Yuan Zhao raised his sword, and the mirror-like blade illuminated his calm eyes: "I thought it must be unfamiliar, but I didn't expect that it is much smoother than before."

"No, I'm surprised that you're still here."

Guo Shouque smiled and said: "According to the past, I might have carried a lot of things to the robbery field."

Hara Teru's sharpening movements paused for a moment, and after a moment of silence, he replied: "He is seeking his own death. Can I still stop him? He chose it himself."

He said, "It's none of my business."

Guo Shouque lowered his head, looked at the reflection of the pair of eyes on the tip of the gun, and nodded slightly.

"You have grown up, Yuan Zhao."

He smiled, turned and left.

Yuan Zhao didn't seem to hear anything, and just lowered his head and continued his work. After a long time, he picked up some water and washed away the residue on the blade. Just between the outstretched arms, Tie Shu was raised, swinging out a round of clear light.

It silently advanced, contracted, swept, and finally stagnated in the thrust that had been practiced hundreds of millions of times since childhood. The meaningless scream and power had all disappeared at some point.

All that remains is the forward protrusion without return.

Have you grown up?

perhaps.

I have no idea about the original photo.

The only feeling I had was anger that I had never felt before.

Also, I was so humiliated that I almost cried, and I was unwilling to give in!

"Still, it's too slow."

He whispered softly, and the gun tip vibrated again, piercing out of the darkness.

Come again.

Then, again, and again...

Just like it has been taught countless times.

Abandon confusion, cut off hesitation, give up hesitation, and swallow the bitter pill.

Put everything into this thorn that has been tempered and radiant.

——Until one day, all the unwillingness will be pierced through!

.

Under the blazing sun, the gallows was erected once again.

Amidst countless excited cheers, when you stand on the high platform and look down, you can only see an endless black tide, with pairs of excited eyes looking forward to the final result.

Waiting for the climax of the ‘sacrifice’ to arrive.

Either old or young.

The rich and powerful, the idle wanderers, the workers who had nothing but to make ends meet, and even more, it was as if the entire Holy Capital was gathered together in one place.

Looking forward to it eagerly, urging for the final result.

Even the shields and threats from the Holy City guards could not make the crowd disperse. Instead, they made the anxious waiting people even more impatient.

"Death penalty!" "Death penalty!" "Death penalty!!!"

A high-pitched sound rose, swallowing everything up.

"Did you see it, Huai Shi, this is the end of the lawyer-"

From an excellent viewing position, Temperance put his hands behind his back, overlooking the scene below, and sneered: "The people you want to save, the souls you are committed to protecting, are all waiting for your corpse to celebrate the suffering. It's over.

Don’t they know that your presence will make their lives better?

Don't they understand your hard work and thoughts?

But in the end, how many people really follow and believe in you? "

In the wheelchair, the criminal waiting to be punished slightly raised his eyes,

"One day, they will understand," he said.

"Understood? Ha, maybe, but so what?"

The ruler asked coldly: "Once they get used to the freedom of beasts, they will never return to the category of humans. They will only instinctively bite and fight for food. Even if the savior standing in front of them is the savior, they will not be able to return to the human realm. Will open his mouth and try to swallow.

Even if they receive your gift and see the light of day because of you, they will want more, more things that you cannot give. If you cannot respond to their demands, they will simply abandon you. "

"Even now, have you not given up on those foolish and naive ideas, Huai Shi?"

Temperance said: "They are already gone and no longer need redemption!"

In the final silence, the eyes of the dying prisoner moved slightly.

He seemed to be looking at him.

But under the oxygen mask, the corners of the mouth on that pale face were slightly raised.

As if he didn't care.

Smiling mockingly.

Redemption?

"I gave up long ago."

Huai Shi closed her eyes, "From the beginning."

Don't speak anymore.

Let the time pass by, quietly waiting for the scheduled time to arrive.

And amidst the cheers of the crowd, the chaotic curses, ridicules and invisible cries, the prisoner in the wheelchair was pulled up, injected with the final stimulant, and under the threat of sharp blades and guns. , staggering, stepping forward.

Step by step, stepping on the stairs.

Towards the towering gallows.

There was no sadness or indignation, no despair. His expression was so calm, overlooking everything gracefully, as if he had arrived in his own palace.

On his seat, Temperance had raised his head, looking around vigilantly at all the abnormalities, repeatedly checking the reports in the communication channel, looking for any ominous signs.

However, even now, there is still no sign of any attack.

The more normal it was, the more it made his heart tighten. Some kind of intuition told him that things were getting worse, and the ominous meaning was getting stronger and stronger, but unfortunately, he couldn't find any trace.

All symptoms indicate that the lawyer is about to meet his own death.

He has personally eliminated this serious problem.

But even so, he still found it difficult to settle down, his breathing gradually became rapid, and even in the sound of the countdown, he became unbearable and restless.

It was as if the man walking towards the gallows was himself...

But what exactly went wrong?

Security at the scene? A covert attack? The executioner? Or is it a hidden danger among the onlookers?

Checking over and over again, in the end, it was all in vain.

Until finally, he suddenly realized that at some point, the manic shouts filling his ears had stopped abruptly.

Silence, sudden.

Right in front of Huai Shi.

When he stepped onto the last step, the lawyer stood at the highest point of the Holy City.

It was as if the king had ascended his own throne.

Top down, once again, overlooking everything.

Even though he fell to the ground under the executioner's rough movements, when that pale face lifted up, the whole world suddenly ushered in silence.

The restless noises were all frozen, and everyone subconsciously froze in place, sluggish.

It seemed to be trembling, waiting for his inspection and supervision.

But nothing can be seen clearly.

Even if I try my best to look, I can only see a blur of people.

Those fanatical and hungry expressions still remained on their faces, and there was no trace of grief, anger or pain, they were just excitedly waiting for their own death.

Not knowing good and evil, forgetting shame, greedily plundering all nutrients and benefits, not caring about salvation or hell, never thinking about the future.

Like beasts.

But living like beasts, is it their fault?

In this city without tomorrow, is there any so-called "hope" left for them?

I can't have expectations for the future, I don't have the courage to live under the sun like a human being.

Only by fighting and fighting like wild beasts can we barely survive. Until one day, he was buried in the belly of other beasts...

It is obvious that he has gradually become completely different from his appearance, but he has no chance to look back.

When you stare at the ugly face in the mirror, you can no longer recall everything that was good in the past.

This is not their sin.

This is not the hell they made.

But they have no choice.

"How pathetic, you guys."

Huaishi murmured softly.

The hoarse and weak voice was transmitted in all directions through the microphone hidden on the executioner's body.

When the thunderous sigh echoed in everyone's ears, the temperance in the seat suddenly stood up and roared at the executioner:

"Tell him to shut up!!!"

He can't be allowed to speak.

His voice must never be allowed to appear in this world again.

The moment Huai Shi's farewell sounded, some kind of substantive fear had already squeezed his heart, causing him to roar and issue orders desperately.

"Kill him! Now!"

But the hoarse command had been dissolved into the echo of a sigh.

There are only the last words of the molester under the gallows.

The dying prisoner just raised his eyes and finally told everyone: "You must remember that today, I forgive your sins -"

boom!

The words stopped abruptly.

Huai Shi's body shook, and a scarlet blood hole appeared on his chest.

Behind him, the executioner under the command of restraint kept moving, pulling the trigger repeatedly towards the victim on the ground. Until the last bullet flies out of the magazine.

Just like that, the adjuster fell into a pool of blood.

With his last breath, he looked towards the world, staring at the faces that were either dull or confused, and seemed to smile.

From now on, you will be like beasts, greedily eating each other...

All evil consequences are in my hands.

This is the last mercy I can give you.

So, blessed and relieved, I closed my eyes.

Breathing is cut off.

Right at his fingertips, blood slowly spread, winding down along the high platform, and landed on the face of a blank face.

A bright red drop.

He raised his hand and touched it in disbelief, looking at the remaining color on his fingertips.

So sweet.

When the brief silence of less than ten seconds was broken by the sound of falling blood, there was a violent tremor and buzzing sound from the sudden lifting of countless glass windows around the silent square.

cheer.

Excited shouts, excited screams, fanatical roars.

The entire Holy City was immersed in unprecedented joy and waves.

Not even the guards could stop the crowds from rushing forward. The ocean was rippled, and everyone rushed forward, stretching out their hands, like a boiling herd of beasts, hungry and thirsty, eating and dying!

Celebrate the end of suffering and chaos, and enjoy this so-called victory and glory...

They laughed from the bottom of their hearts, and after overcoming all the hardships, they welcomed the arrival of a new life.

At this moment, everyone knew.

——The lawyer is dead.
