It is absolutely impossible for an ordinary person to witness the entire process of execution. Most people only know about this kind of punishment from movies and TV series.
It is because of this impossibility that the execution process of the death penalty is coated with layers of mystery, and of course Lu Sheng is no exception.
Unlike everyone else, Lu Sheng was even full of anticipation for the upcoming execution, an almost pathological expectation.
The current death penalty should be carried out by bailiffs, which seems to be a poisonous injection. This would be more humane.
After all, in addition to being majestic, the law should also be humane.
Sitting in the electric chair like that, if the 30,000 volts of high voltage accidentally scorches the person alive, it would be quite miserable! There is also hanging, if the neck of the death row prisoner is hard enough, he will probably have to suffer for a long time.
In Lu Sheng's subconscious mind, he doesn't seem to recognize these three methods of punishment. He prefers the most primitive kind of shooting. Maybe he has watched relevant documentaries or watched related films. After all, in his
The world of artistic conception can only project the scenes he knows.
Lu Sheng knew that executioners in the past were usually selected from the armed police. After the body of the person being shot was identified, an armed policeman would shout a command, and then the execution would be executed. Finally, a forensic doctor would come forward to check whether the prisoner was dead.
Although it is a legal execution of a criminal life, it is not easy to execute a death row prisoner, and the atmosphere on the execution ground is also very terrifying.
Unlike other death row prisoners, Lu Sheng was in a very high mood the night before his execution, without any instability at all.
After issuing a notice to Lu Sheng, the prison correctional officer said to him out of humanitarianism, "Now we will meet some of your requirements. You can eat whatever you want. You can also smoke if you want, but alcohol can be provided unconditionally."
You can’t drink it.”
Finally reaching this stage, Lu Sheng thought seriously. After thinking for a while, he said, "Then make me a bowl of fish ball noodles."
"You can eat whatever you want, just a bowl of fish ball noodles?"
"Yes, that's what I like."
The correctional officer continued to follow the procedure and asked, "Do you need to write a letter to your family before you are sentenced?"
"I don't have any family, I only have myself now," Lu Sheng looked at the person in front of him, who may have been a correctional officer who appeared on TV, and joked to him, "If I write it, I will probably be in trouble.
You burn it for me."
The correctional officer had a serious look on his face, and he obviously ignored what Lu Sheng said just now, which was not funny. The correctional officer stopped talking, but he had no intention of leaving.
Finally, someone with whom he could chat appeared in the artistic conception. Lu Sheng opened the conversation and continued to say with a smile, "I know why you haven't left. You are afraid that I will harm myself or commit suicide, haha..."
Laughter echoed in the empty cell. The correctional officer stood outside the cell, looking at the heinous murderer in front of him.
"I said that you, a man, killed two people, committed such a serious crime, and is now about to be executed. Don't you still have no regrets? You still smile and keep saying these things, but you don't realize it?
My own sin?"
"I kill people, and I take the initiative to accept punishment, but the people I kill are all deserving of death. I don't regret killing them. I am guilty of breaking the law, but I realize the sin in my heart, so I can be so calm now."
The correctional cadre did not really agree with Lu Sheng's words, but he did not want to waste his words with him anymore. The reason why he did not leave was because of the regulations. Indeed, as Lu Sheng said, it was to prevent the death row inmates from doing something that would harm themselves.
the behavior of.
This night passed extremely long, not because of suffering, but because of waiting and expectation slowing down the passage of time.
Early the next morning, the bailiffs were about to take Lu Sheng away. The correctional officers stepped forward and tied up Lu Sheng's trouser legs with hemp rope.
Lu Sheng knew this link. It was very necessary for some criminals. They were extremely vicious when committing crimes and regarded human life as nothing. But when he was really faced with death, the extreme fear in his heart caused the facial features to be distorted and
Mental breakdown is also very scary. When the final verdict was handed down, many death row inmates looked ashen, their legs and even their whole bodies were shaking uncontrollably. It was not uncommon for them to wet their pants.
I heard that one person collapsed immediately at the sentencing meeting, frothing at the mouth. When the bailiff pulled him up, he was so frightened that he turned into a puddle of mud.
Many death row inmates completely lost the madness they had when they committed crimes when they faced death. At this time, in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, their trouser legs were often tied up with hemp rope to deal with conditions such as incontinence of urine and feces.
"I know what you are doing. No, you really don't have to do this."
The words Lu Sheng said the night before had already made the correctional officers a little tired of Lu Sheng. He didn't reply and was still tied up.
Lu Sheng didn't say anything else, and walked out of the cell after tying up. As soon as he walked out of the cell, he suddenly turned his head and shouted to the correctional officer of the detention center: "Boss, thank you for taking care of me. I will come back to you for a drink another day."
The correctional officer had witnessed too many death row inmates, but had never seen someone like Lu Sheng. His face instantly turned pale, whether because of fear or anger.
Lu Sheng had no ill intentions. After all, he knew that he was not really going to die.
About to be taken to the execution ground, Lu Sheng was escorted into the execution car by four armed policemen. As soon as Lu Sheng got on the execution car, he discovered that there was another death row prisoner in the car. His face was heavy and lifeless.
, as if the God of Death had already taken away his life.
One of the four armed policemen in the car looked very young. Lu Sheng guessed that it was his first time to perform this kind of mission. Today, Lu Sheng, like last night, was very talkative.
He looked at the armed police and said, "Comrade armed police, may I ask, where are we going to execute the execution?"
The armed policemen sitting in the car ignored Lu Sheng, because they didn't know where to go to enforce the law, and there were regulations that prohibited them from interfering.
But what is certain is that the execution ground was on the outskirts of Huangzhou. Most of the people on the bus had no idea where the execution ground was until they got on the bus.
Lu Sheng smiled, looked at the young armed policeman escorting him, and continued to encourage him: "Don't be nervous."
Seeing that the other party didn't reply, he joked with him again, "If you get nervous, it will make me nervous too!"
The atmosphere in the execution car was very awkward. The person who was about to be shot was in a calm mood, but the executioner seemed a little nervous.
"I tell you, little comrade, remember never to commit a crime and never be an enemy of the people!"
After a while, the criminal car arrived at a remote mountainside on the outskirts of Huangzhou City. It was far away from the highway and the place was empty.
Another criminal was dragged from the torture car and was basically paralyzed. The armed police held him and knelt on the ground.
Lu Sheng was not dragged down by others, but walked down on his own and knelt on the ground as well.
