Warden Shawshank and his wife slept at home. In the morning, the woman opened her eyes and found something hanging from the roof in a daze.
When she saw it clearly, she screamed in fright.
"Ahhhhh~~~!"
"What's the matter?" The warden was awakened by the scream.
"Sam, look, our dog~, dead!"
The woman said in fear, covering her mouth.
In their bedroom, the two dogs of his family were hung on ceiling fans and passed through their mouths with iron hooks. Their bodies were covered with scars, blood ticking down to the ground, and the whole scene was extremely **** and terrifying.
The warden was also shocked.
"What's going on, I'll call the police!" The warden Qiang got up calmly and walked quickly to the table to make a call.
"Ring Ling Ling~!"
Just then the phone rang suddenly.
The warden took a moment to answer.
A voice of negative test came from the microphone, "Hello Warden Norton, I should have seen the gift we gave you. When you hung them in your bedroom, your husband and wife slept too soundly, so I didn’t feel embarrassed to disturb you. ."
Hearing these words, the warden's body suddenly tightened.
He heard the meaning of the other party's words, his dog was killed by them, and they can enter their room at will, hang the dog on the ceiling fan without being known by him, which means they can kill themselves at any time.
"Who are you? What do you want to do!" the warden shouted angrily into the phone.
"Think about what you did yourself."
The warden was taken aback.
What he has done, too many things he has done, how does he know how to offend these people.
The person on the other end of the phone spoke again.
But the next words made the warden chill all over.
"The annual maintenance cost of the prison exceeds hundreds of thousands, but half of it goes into your pocket. Dolittle Construction Company just pretends, right."
"Duoli Food Supply Company. The prison food is provided by this company. The prisoners eat very poorly, and the reimbursement price is twice that of the ingredients. You make the difference."
"There are also sundries purchased for prisons, and you also make a fortune from it."
"Corruption, false accounting, money laundering, Mr. Warden, if we submit these evidence to the tax bureau, what do you think will happen to you, ha ha ha ha?!"
The laughter on the phone made him horrified in the ears of the warden.
"You guys, what do you want?"
The warden's voice was no longer angry, and even a little low-pitched.
"It's very simple, to ensure Andy's safety, we can not shake your affairs out, but you remember, if he has an accident, you will definitely end up worse than him, including your family." The person on the phone surveyed. Said the test.
"Of course, if you are obedient, there is still room for recovery..."
The warden put down the phone trembling.
His wife grabbed the warden's arm by the side, "Sam, did you call the police? Let the police catch those bastards. They killed our dog."
The warden took a deep breath.
"You can't call the police, you can only handle this matter yourself."
"Why?" the wife screamed.
The warden was a little annoyed, "Did you not see it? This is a warning. The call was just made by those people. If we dare to call the police, they will send me to jail, and even come in at night and kill you directly."
The warden's wife was also terrified.
"Then, what should I do?"
"What else can I do? I can only do what they say." The warden said dejectedly.
......
The warden returned to Shawshank prison.
Came to his office.
Captain Hailey immediately followed, and after closing the door, he reported in a low voice: "The warden, I have arranged for a guy named Dimon to find a chance to kill Andy. He will get into a fight, absolutely not involved. Come to us."
"Slap~!"
The warden gave Haili a big slap in the face.
There was a fierce light in his eyes.
Captain Haley was beaten up.
"Warden, what's the matter?"
The warden shouted to Haili: "Stop, you must stop, now immediately tell the person you are looking for, you must never kill Andy, everything stops."
"Ah~!"
Hailey is a little unsure.
At first it was you who let yourself kill, but now you suddenly stop.
"But once Andy reverses the case and gets out of jail, what if our affairs are reported?" Hailey asked.
The warden said heartily.
His own affairs have long been known, and now Andy is no longer the focus, the focus is on the people who threatened him.
Killing Andy, the other party will definitely get revenge.
Going to jail or being beaten to death on the street, his family members were killed, but he did not end well anyway, and even if Andy went out, even if he was reported, he would be punished at most, and would not involve his family.
It is also possible that Andy will not shake off. The other party said that there is still room for recovery, which gave him a glimmer of hope.
Now I can only choose to be obedient.
There is no second way.
"Stop talking nonsense, now hurry up and notify the person you are looking for, have you stopped hearing it?" The warden shouted at Haili.
"Okay, I'm going to inform now."
Captain Hailey brought Dimon to his office again, closed the door and said in a low voice: "The thing that I told you before, don't need to go on, stop here.
I warn you, just as if this matter has never happened, you are not allowed to mention it to anyone and forget him. If you dare to disclose it, there will be no good day in Shawshank in the future. "
Dimon nodded.
"I don't know what happened."
Leaving Hailey's office.
A smile appeared on Dimon's face.
People who are looking for themselves can have a lot of energy. The news that I learned only yesterday will settle things down today.
......
Shawshank prison playground.
It's time to let the wind go again.
Andy is not as leisurely as he used to be. He is sitting in the corner, staring at the crowd in the distance. He has been worried when he received the message yesterday that someone wanted to kill himself.
The little brother who sold cigarettes started spinning around again, peddling the cigarettes in his hand, and turned around and came to Andy.
"Do you want a cigarette?"
Andy Xin said, I said that I don't smoke, so how come I sell it to me.
At this time, the little brother lowered his voice and said: "Your business has been settled, you are really amazing."
He patted Andy on the shoulder and left.
Andy was taken aback.
Yesterday, this little brother told himself that someone was going to kill him. Today, he came to tell himself that things have been settled.
Andy was uncertain.
solved,
Who helped me solve it?
Andy sorted out the whole matter, and he felt that the most likely solution to this matter was the Mr. Henry.
Or it is Mr. Hardy, the boss behind him.
Although he has never seen each other, Andy has already sensed that Mr. Hardy's supernatural powers.
Why did Mr. Hardy help himself?
He never figured it out.
......
Five days passed in a flash.
On this day, Andy received a notice that he would be transferred to the state court detention facility, ready to participate in the next trial.
Upon receiving this news, Andy stayed up all night in excitement.
I can finally leave here.
He whispered the news to Old Rhett, and the two sat together and chatted quietly.
"I don’t know what I’m feeling right now, I’m excited, but I’m a little bit sad. I loved my wife very much, but I was not good at expressing it. She always complained that I spent too little time with her, and said that I hurt her. My temper hurts her. The only difference is that I fired the gun. In fact, during this period of time in prison, apart from feeling wronged, I still feel a little bit of atonement in my heart."
"Maybe this is the punishment of fate. Let me stay here for 7 years to punish me for the faults in that marriage."
Old Reid shook his head slightly.
"I don't think your wife is doing the right thing. Enjoying the money and benefits that your work brings, but can't help being lonely to find Xiaobaiface. This is a shameless behavior.
"You are not a murderer. Maybe you are not a good husband and you can regret it, but you are not guilty and you shouldn't stay here."
Andy was silent.
Turning his head to look at Old Reid, "If there is a chance, I will release you on parole?"
Old Rhett was silent.
He was not as excited about being able to go out.
There is even a trace of worry.
"I am different from you. I have really killed people, and I have not been wronged in my heart. After staying here for more than 20 years, I have not adapted to the life outside. I am afraid I can't survive when I go out. You know a caged person Bird, for a long time, it has not adapted to the sky outside and has no courage to soar."
Laurie said slowly.
"Then if there is a chance to go out, what kind of life do you want to live?" Andy asked.
Old Rhett thought for a while.
"Open a hotel and raise a dog. The hotel business doesn't need to be very good. I have contact with customers every day, sitting at the door idly, with the dog lying next to me. Maybe that's the life I want most."
......
Andy is gone.
Leaving Shawshank prison.
When he left the prison with salute, many people looked at him from the fence.
Watch him leave.
The warden stood at the window and watched Andy being taken away by the state court police car. At this moment, he didn't know how he was feeling.
Finally, I don't have to worry about whether to kill Andy.
But then he will continue to suffer.
The sword of Damocles was held in someone else's hand and could be cut down at any time. He didn't know what his future fate would be like.
Such a day of fear all day is so uncomfortable.
Perhaps he is not as happy as the prisoners lying on the playground.
......
The prison room of the state court is much better than the Shawshank prison. The double room has a separate bathroom and the beds are softer. The food is more than one grade better than Shawshank.
Attorney Bob and Henry came to see him again.
Lawyer Bob smiled and said: "Next there will be a process, but I can tell you that your case is well-documented. As long as there is no major accident, you will be released in court next month."
Henry said next to him: "Mr. Andy, wait at ease during this time. You can tell me what you need."
Andy thought for a while, "Can I ask for some newspapers and books. I have been isolated from the outside world for too long and want to know more about the current situation outside?"
"No problem." Henry said.
Andy thought about it again, "Mr. Henry, can I talk to you alone?"
Attorney Bob smiled and stood up and said: "I'll go outside and smoke a cigarette first. UU reading "
After the lawyer left, Andy looked at Henry and asked, "Mr. Henry, I want to ask, did you arrange for the surrendered thief?"
Henry had a meal.
Then I understood what Andy meant.
"We arranged for him to surrender, but that person was indeed the murderer who killed your wife and lover. My boss accidentally knew about this, so he arranged for me to see you and let the thief surrender."
Andy's heart finally let go.
If the thief is fake, he might be very guilty.
"Mr. Henry, can I ask about Mr. Hardy's situation, these days I have been curious about why Mr. Hardy helped me?"
Henry pouted his lips.
"I don't know, maybe it's really for a sense of justice."
