Chapter 2 Part 1: Prison Break Requirements of Death Row

This is a very unpleasant thing, the spring is beautiful, it is a good season for travel, and I am planning a trip, but, in the morning, before I set off, Jack, the head of the special task force of the police , but suddenly called me, saying that a person wanted to see me, and his name was Luo Zhixun. If it was someone else, I could either refuse, or I could not change my travel plan and see him again after I got back from the trip, but for Luo Zhixun, I couldn't postpone it.Because Luo Zhixun only had a few hours to live, he could only live until four o'clock this afternoon. This is by no means a secret, but something everyone knows, and almost every newspaper publishes the news!

Luo Zhixun is a death row prisoner awaiting execution! He was sentenced to death for murdering his younger brother Luo Zhiqian.It was a sensational case. Luo Zhixun once appealed against the verdict, but the result of the retrial was to uphold the original verdict. Because of the many mysteries and inscrutable aspects of this case, it was particularly sensational. Even I, who had nothing to do with this case, had studied the contents of that case, but could not get the point. The information on this case was all from newspaper reports, and he had no direct contact with Luo Zhixun, so he couldn't research anything famous.

I think this is a very strange case, because Luo Zhisen has no motive for murder at all. Luo Zhixun is a very rich man, he not only owns a rich inheritance, but also keeps another rich inheritance for his younger brother.His younger brother Luo Zhiqian studied in the United States very early. During the Second World War, he was an officer in the American army. He disappeared during the battle. The military believed that he had no hope of surviving. Under such circumstances, if Luo Zhixun wanted to seize property, then he could logically take his brother's property as his own.But he didn't, and nearly thirty years after the end of World War II, he still firmly believed that his brother was still alive.

He sent many people to search for his brother from island to island in the South Pacific. Many people in the society know about this.Many expeditions in the South Pacific have been funded by Luo Zhixun, and one of the conditions is that they find Luo Zhiqian's whereabouts. The most tragic battle in the Second World War was the Pacific Island Battle, and countless soldiers died. To find a person who has been missing for nearly 20 years in such a tragic war is really like looking for a needle in a haystack difficulty. Many people advised Luo Zhixun not to do that, but Luo Zhixun said that he and his younger brother have had a deep relationship since childhood, as long as there is still a glimmer of hope, he must find him back!

The search work continued, and the U.S. military felt Luo Zhixun's sincerity, and even made an exception to lend Luo Zhixun the records of the military's actions at that time, which narrowed the scope of Luo Zhixun's search. Finally, a miracle happened, Luo Zhixun found his younger brother! When he came back with his brother, it was also a big news that caused a sensation in the society. However, the more sensational news was yet to come: Luo Zhixun murdered his younger brother on the third day after his return. He was on a cliff and pushed his brother down. At least seven people saw his murderous act, and twenty people heard his brother Luo Zhiqian's shrill cry as he fell off the cliff. .

Luo Zhiqian's body has never been found, and experts believe that it was washed to a distant and unknown place by the sea. After Luo Zhixun pushed his younger brother down the mountain, he just stood there blankly until the police handcuffed him. After Luo Zhixun was arrested, he hardly defended himself. He said nothing. His wife hired several best lawyers for him, but even the best lawyers were powerless! Not only did seven witnesses witness Luo Zhixun's murder, but also three most famous neurologists and psychologists swore to prove that Luo Zhixun's nerves were absolutely normal.

Luo Zhixun was sentenced to death. The most mysterious aspect of this case is: What is Luo Zhixun's motive for killing? Luo Zhixun is a highly educated person. For a highly educated person, especially to kill another person, to kill his own brother, this is a very important event, and it must not be without motivation. So, what is Luo Zhixun's motivation? He spent so much money, time, and painstaking efforts to find his brother back from the jungle on a small island in the Pacific Ocean, with the purpose of bringing him back and pushing him down from the mountain? If so, then he is crazy.

But in fact, experts have proved that he is by no means crazy. This is also the reason why this case interested me at the time. I collected all the information about this case, and since Luo Zhixun said almost nothing after the incident, Luo Zhixun's wife, Ms. Bai Xiuqiong, became the object of access. Ms. Bai made many speeches, all of which also proved her husband's innocence. She described her husband's painstaking efforts to find her brothers over the years, and her husband's joy after the two brothers came back, very touchingly. And, during many conversations, she remembered every detail.Everything that Ms. Bai said proved that Luo Zhixun had no motive to murder his brother, absolutely not.

However, Ms. Bai's speech could not save Luo Zhixun's fate. At that time, I once had an inference, my inference was: What Luo Zhixun brought back from the desert island was not his younger brother, but another person. When Luo Zhixun discovered this, he was suddenly stimulated, so he brought him The one who came back killed it. But my inference is untenable. All kinds of evidence show that the person brought back by Luo Zhixun is the missing US military officer, Lieutenant Luo Zhiqian.With the same fingerprints and the same appearance, it is absolutely impossible to belong to the second person.

Therefore, why Luo Zhixun wanted to kill his younger brother became a mystery. I thought this mystery would never be solved, but the police informed me that Luo Zhixun wanted to see me!A few hours before his execution, he suddenly wanted to see me. I am not a big shot, just an ordinary person, but I have solved many very difficult and unpredictable things. The reason why Luo Zhixun came to me before the execution was, of course, that he had something extremely difficult to solve in his heart up. I said yes to Jack and gave up the trip. In Jack's office, I met the senior police officer with whom I had quarreled many times, and he opened his hands wide: Welcome, welcome, you are the savior of the dying.

He was obviously dissatisfied with me, I just smiled lightly: I think Luo Zhixun's nerves are somewhat abnormal, who does he think I am, a pastor? Then I don't know anymore, his life time is running out, let's go see him!Jack didn't appreciate my humor. We left the police station together and came to the prison. At the gate of the prison, many journalists gathered. After entering the prison, almost all the first-class lawyers in the city gathered here, making this place not like a prison, but more like a legal conference. same venue. Those lawyers were all invited by Ms. Bai. They are trying to apply for probation and are preparing to appeal again. It seems that their efforts have achieved certain results. In the reception room of the prison, I met Luo Zhixun's wife, Ms. Bai Xiuqiong for the first time.I have seen her photos more than once, and she is thinner and more delicate than the photos.She was pale and sat in a chair, listening to a lawyer. Just as Jack and I walked in, someone whispered something in her ear, and she quickly stood up and came up to me. Her actions are very gentle, and one can tell that she is a very educated woman.Moreover, it can be seen that she is a very restrained person, and she is trying her best to contain her inner grief. Under such circumstances, people feel that she deserves more sympathy. She came to me and said in a low voice: Mr. Wei? I nodded: yes, I am Wesley. She smiled wryly: I'm so sorry to bother you, he didn't want to see anyone at first.Even I don't want to see him anymore, but he wants to see you. In my heart, there might still be some unhappiness, but after listening to Bai Xiuqiong's words, I didn't even feel that unhappiness anymore, because I heard Luo Zhixun in her words. How much I need my help! Luo Zhixun is the protagonist of such a bizarre and strange case, if he didn't have some necessary reasons, he would never come to see a stranger like me when his wife is gone. So, I hurriedly said: You are welcome, Mrs. Luo.I will do everything I can to help him. Bai Xiuqiong had tears in his eyes: Thank you, Mr. Wei, I believe he is innocent. Under such circumstances, I really can't think of anything to comfort Bai Xiuqiong.Besides, Jack was already urging me, so I had to hurry forward. The death row is the most heavily guarded part of the prison. We passed through the dense layers of guards before arriving at the cell where Luo Zhixun was imprisoned. As soon as a jailer saw Jack, he immediately pressed the button. Opened the cell door. The cell was rather dark. After the door opened, Jack just pointed forward and said, "Go in." As I walked forward, I looked inside. There is nothing to describe the prison cell. Every cell in the world is almost the same.When I stepped into the prison cell and the door closed automatically, I had fully seen the protagonist of this strange case! He and Bai Xiuqiong can be said to be a match made in heaven. He looks extremely weak and pale, but he does not give people a pitiful feeling, but makes people feel that he is gentle and very bookish. His face is slightly elongated, and his eyes are very bright, which shows that he is not only insane, but also very intelligent. He is sitting on the prison bed, and he is looking at me with wide eyes. The two of us looked at each other for a long time before he spoke first: You, the one I want to see?I nodded and sat down on the edge of the bed.We looked at each other for a while, but he didn't speak, but I couldn't help it, and said bluntly: Don't waste your time He stood up, took a step forward, came to me, bent down, and said in a very clear voice: "Help me escape!" I was taken aback suddenly. This can be said to be the simplest sentence I have heard in my life, but it is also the most shocking sentence.I asked: You, do you know what you are talking about? He nodded again and again: I know, I know, I know it's a bit late to ask you this! He didn't say it was too much to make this request to me, but just said it a bit late. I really don't know what he meant by saying that, and I don't understand what he was thinking! I stared at him, and he said again: "But there is no way, I didn't feel that you could trust me until the last moment, please help me escape, you have done many difficult things that humans cannot do, so naturally you can help me too escaped from this prison. I sighed, it was necessary for me to reassess whether his nerves were normal or not. I shook my head: I know there are more than 700 ways to escape from prison, and I know quite a few escape experts. For them, it can be said that there is no prison from which they cannot escape! He excitedly said: Okay, have you agreed to my request? I smiled wryly: Whether I promise you or not is a secondary issue. The problem is that in your situation, it is really impossible to escape! Luo Zhixun hurriedly said: Why?Their supervision of me may not be particularly strict. I sighed: Why don't you understand, escape from prison is by no means a simple matter, it requires careful planning, some even need to plan for several years, and you I really don't want to go on, so when I saw this, I rolled up my hands and looked at my watch. He really should understand what my action means. I am telling him that his life is only three hours and forty minutes.In fact, he only had a chance of two hours at most.Because at that time, priests, jailers, and wardens will surround him, and he will have no chance of getting out of prison. Why did he escape from prison? This was the only question I was thinking at that time, because his escape from prison was impossible to implement, so I really wanted to know why he escaped from prison! His complexion became even paler, he twisted his fingers vigorously, making his phalanges make a clapping sound, and he yelled a little sharply: No, I have to escape! I hurriedly said: Why?He said very rudely: Leave me alone, I'm here to ask you, you must help me escape. I stood up helplessly: I'm sorry, this is something that no one can do, I really can't do anything, I see, your wife's lawyers are asking for a stay of execution for you, if you can stay for two months If so, then there may still be a chance. If the request for a reprieve is not approved, I shook my head and said: Then there is nothing I can do! He suddenly held my hand, his hand was colder than ice, so cold that even I couldn't help shivering, he tremblingly said: Mr. Wei, please use these three hours, I must escape, Please believe me, I really must escape, please help me! I looked at him very sympathetically: Please believe me too, I really can't do it! Luo Zhixun shook his head and muttered to himself: I killed him, I am not innocent, I killed him, but I really have to kill him, please help me! I broke free from his grip and retreated to the door. I knocked hard on the door of the cell three times. It was a signal agreed in advance, the door of the cell opened immediately, I stepped back out, Luo Zhixun did not rush out, he just wailed in a very sharp voice: "Help me!"You have to help me, only you can do it, you can do it! His screams could be heard in almost the entire prison, I had no choice but to exit in embarrassment amidst his screams, and the door of the cell was mercilessly closed, separating me from him. I paused for a while outside the door of the cell, and two police officers came towards me in a little panic, asking repeatedly: How are you doing?How about it?But did he hurt you? At this time, Luo Zhixun's cry had stopped. I just felt weirdly uncomfortable and I just said: no, nothing, I'm not that easily hurt. The two police officers said again: It is the most dangerous thing to see the death row prisoners who are about to be executed, because they know that they are about to die, and they can do anything. I smiled wryly, didn't I?Luo Zhixun is finally gentle, but he actually asked me to help him escape from prison. Isn't this kind of whimsical request that he can do anything? I walked out of the prison. In the reception room, I felt that the atmosphere was very strange. All the lawyers were sitting downcast, they were only looking at the documents and not talking. This kind of situation makes people know at a glance that there is no hope for requesting a suspended sentence. Although the order of probation often arrives at the last minute after the prisoner has already boarded the electric chair, it is not successful, and there is a little certainty in advance. I know that the reasons for the lawyers' request for probation are the same as the reason for the appeal. Their reason is: Luo Zhiqian's body has never been found. What if he is not dead? If Luo Zhiqian had not died, then Luo Zhixun would not be convicted of murder, and the lawyers took advantage of this to make a big fuss.Originally, this point was quite beneficial to Luo Zhixun, if Luo Zhixun murdered his brother in another way. But now, Luo Zhixun pushed his younger brother off the 892-foot-high cliff, and seven witnesses witnessed it with their own eyes at a distance of only five to ten feet. The defense lawyer's eloquent argument was rejected by a sentence to the prosecutor. The prosecutor asked: Gentlemen, has any of you ever heard of a person falling off a cliff at a height of 892 feet and not dying? of?Below the cliff is the sea, and of course the body has disappeared with the current! Luo Zhixun's death sentence was decided under such circumstances. Now, lawyers are appealing on the same grounds, with little hope of success. After I came out of the cell, I felt extremely uncomfortable.Because I also feel that Luo Zhixun's murder has hidden secrets and great twists and turns. And I am willing to help him, and I am willing to make him disclose this secret, but I can't do anything! What can I do to make him escape from prison two hours before the execution?So, with a heavy heart, I hurried across the anteroom to leave.However, just as I came to the door, I heard someone calling me: Mr. Wei, please wait a moment! I turned around, and standing in front of me was Mrs. Luo. Her expression was very miserable, which made my heart even heavier. I even wanted to turn around and leave, but I didn't do that. I just politely said: Yes, Mrs. Luo. Mrs. Luo looked directly at me and said slowly: We all heard his screams. I smiled wryly: Yes, his screams were quite frightening. Mrs. Luo said: "I know, it was a cry of despair." She paused for a moment, and then said: "I also know, he must have asked you something, but you rejected him." Mrs. Luo made such a correct judgment either because of her intelligence, or because of her understanding of Luo Zhixun.I nodded: yes. Mrs. Luo didn't say anything, she never blamed me with words like lack of sympathy, let alone compliment me with words like you must have a way. She just sighed faintly: Thank you for coming to see him. As she spoke, she turned around. This made me feel even more uneasy. I quickly stopped her and said in a low voice: Mrs. Luo, do you know what he wants me to do? Mrs. Luo turned around and shook her head: Of course I don't know. I lowered my voice so that only Mrs. Luo standing in front of me could hear my words, and then I said: He wants me to help him escape and escape from prison in the last three hours! Mrs. Luo was obviously taken aback when she heard me say that at first, but she immediately returned to her original appearance and said in a miserable voice: Since he made such a request, there must be a reason. I agree with her: yes, I think so, but there's nothing I can do about it. As I said that, I spread my hands to strengthen my tone, showing that I was really helpless. Mrs. Luo still didn't say anything, she just raised her eyes and looked at me. Mrs. Luo is a very resolute woman. This is a typical example of a person who will not give in until the last second. Under her gaze, I feel even more uneasy. At the same time, in my heart, I began to ask myself, do I Is it really powerless? Mrs. Luo should have asked me this question, but she didn't say anything, just looked at me, forcing me to ask myself this question. Of course, it would be wrong to say that there is nothing to do. With my current position of trust in the police force and the fact that I have met Luo Zhixun once, I can use at least three methods to help Luo Zhixun escape from prison.However, no matter what method I use, I can't make people not know that Luo Zhixun's escape is related to me! That is to say, if Luo Zhixun's escape from prison is successful, then I will definitely have Lang Dang imprisoned.Openly helping a murderer sentenced to death escape from prison, the crime will never be light. And if I don't want to go to jail, I have to flee. Unless Luo Zhixun can clear his murder charge after he escapes from prison, otherwise, I have to flee for eighteen years because the maximum period of prosecution for a criminal case is eighteen years.Eighteen years of fugitive career, that is more terrifying than sitting in prison! Moreover, now I am not alone, I also have Bai Su, my new wife, we have an extremely happy family, happiness surrounds us like colorful lights, how can I leave Bai Su to go to jail, escape? No, no, this is unimaginable, of course I would not be so stupid as to rescue Luo Zhixun desperately. I quickly turned my head away, not to make eye contact with Mrs. Luo. Mrs. Luo sighed: Mr. Wei, thank you very much.He is hopeless. I had to comfort her with words against my will: You don't have to be too sad, maybe there is hope for probation, then you can collect more information to appeal. Mrs. Luo turned around without making a sound, and I looked at her. She took a few steps and sat down. She just rested her head on her hands and said nothing.At this moment, Jack came to me: What is it?The death row wants to see you, why? I opened my mouth, but at this moment, Mrs. Luo looked up at me, and I changed at that moment: I'm sorry, I can't tell you for the time being. Jack shrugged, not caring. However, I could see that he cared very much. When he came here with me, he already had a very unhappy expression. I knew exactly why he was unhappy, it was because Luo Zhixun wanted to see me, not him.He has a very high status in the police. In his mind, no matter what embarrassing matters the death row prisoners have, they should be asked to solve them. Now that Luo Zhixun is looking for me, of course he is not happy. I didn't want to explain to Jack either, so I just walked out, but Jack still followed me and said: Wesley, if you cooperate with the police, you should tell me why Luo Zhixun wants to see you. I was very upset in my heart, Jack is an excellent police officer, but he is very arrogant and disgusting in many places, I just replied coldly: first, I have never been a person who cooperates with the police; second Well, Luo Zhixun has already been sentenced to death and is about to be executed. He has nothing to do with the police anymore!
