"No matter what I do, I can't let this country abolish the death penalty. Now, what the abolitionist faction really wants to pursue is not democracy, or the so-called government having no right to judge the lives of citizens, but to use the abolition of the death penalty to allow those who
The interest groups behind the lawsuit are manipulating. Only if the death penalty continues to exist is the spirit of the rule of law in our United States of Chia."
At this time, Zhu Yuyan was holding her mobile phone and reading the comic "Kingdom of Evil Spirits".
In the comic, a middle-aged man is talking at this time, and the dialog box is full of words. In front of the middle-aged man, there is a young man wearing glasses, who looks like Xia Xia, who looks much younger than he does now.
Li.
"Xia Li... looks and has the same name..." Zhu Yuyan looked out the car window at this time. At this time, the bus was jammed, and she planned to go to Qingtian Park first to check out the spots.
The main reason why she went alone was because she hoped that if she could make a special discovery, she would have the capital to claim credit in front of Xia Li. Although it would be faster to go by subway, but now she
The absolutely closed space of the subway makes me increasingly resistant inside.
Under normal circumstances...if you find a fictional character in a comic with a name that is exactly the same as someone you know, you will probably think that this may be the prototype of the comic character. However, when entering a place like an apartment, you will
When she saw that there were special blood records like "Black Ghost" in the blood records, she couldn't help but have an incredible idea -
Could Xia Li be a person who came to reality from comics?
In the past, she had watched a Korean drama "W Two Worlds". The protagonist of the story was a fictional character created by a cartoonist, but all his family members were drawn to death by the cartoonist overnight. Years later, the dimensional wall was opened.
, came to reality from the comic book world. She particularly liked this show, so she was extremely impressed. And "The Kingdom of Evil" is a well-known horror comic. This deepened her association.
But this conjecture was too absurd, so she never dared to ask Xia Li directly.
Since she was still stuck in a traffic jam, Zhu Yuyan cast her gaze on the mobile phone screen in front of her.
"Dad, I agree with your idea." Xia Li said in the cartoon screen: "Now in the Legislative Yuan of the United States of Chia, many members have proposed the complete abolition of the death penalty."
"The abolitionist faction's public opinion base is much larger than I thought." Xia Li's father said: "The United States of Chia has had no actual death penalty for more than ten years. In the past ten years, most of the death row prisoners have been
They are just imprisoned like ordinary life-sentence prisoners."
Zhu Yuyan pulled the phone screen to the left and turned to the next page.
The picture on the next page changed into another picture.
The blood-soaked banquet hall.
Countless bodies fell to the cold ground.
This day was originally Xia Li's wedding. His marriage partner was Shen Weishu, the daughter of the Shen family, a prominent family in the United Kingdom of Chia.
The author Qiao Chuyi's painting style is extremely sophisticated. It is said that because she admires Takeru Obata, the characters she draws are extremely realistic, and the various storyboards are superb. It can be said that the characters she drew have reached a high degree of similarity in some scenes.
The level of photos. Because of this, Zhu Yuyan can tell at a glance that Xia Li in the comics looks exactly the same as Xia Li in reality.
"I can hardly remember the plot here." After reading the comic for the second time, Zhu Yuyan couldn't help feeling palpitated when she saw this tragic scene.
Then on the next page, the cartoon scene switched to the world's discussion of the murderous incident known as the "Red Wedding."
"Who did this?"
"Because Congressman Xia didn't want to be extravagant, we chose to hold the wedding in a very secluded hometown in the countryside, and didn't dispatch much security force, otherwise it wouldn't have happened..."
"It should be what the death penalty inmates did, right? Because of the persistence of the death penalty faction headed by Representative Xia, they finally chose to exile the death penalty inmates and let the world judge them personally. Some death penalty inmates, once the death penalty is abolished,
There is hope that he will be released after his sentence is reduced."
"It is said that they were a group of masked thugs with a large number of firearms. The groom was one of the few who survived. If Mrs. Xia hadn't fallen to the ground holding her son and smearing her blood on him, I'm afraid that
There’s no way to escape.”
"The bride was particularly miserable. She was shot in the face by several bullets. If she hadn't been wearing a wedding dress, I wouldn't have recognized her..."
Zhu Yuyan continued to read the comics, but she felt increasingly uncomfortable. Because of Xia Li, she began to treat the comics as a fictional story.
The United States of Chia is a fictional country in the comics. Although the characters on the show all have Chinese names, it implements a legal system similar to that in Europe and the United States. Officials who support the death penalty and hope to abolish the death penalty finally made a compromise.
The decision was made to exile the death row prisoners into society and let the people kill them. The United States of Chia is a country where people can legally hold guns. Therefore, in this country, citizens can hold their own guns and shoot those who have been sentenced to death.
, but a death row inmate who needs to be executed by the citizens.
In the beginning, it was a work with a dystopian style, but as the plot progressed, it evolved into a horror comic.
The male protagonist of the comic, Xiao Tianyi, was framed and unjustly imprisoned. In the end, during the trial, he was sentenced to death. According to the laws of the United States of Chia, the death penalty must be approved by the Supreme Court. At that time, it was
It is the moment when the country is about to amend the criminal law. Due to the change in the law, the article that the death penalty needs to be approved by the Supreme Court has also been abolished. All death row prisoners have been released into society in court, and any citizen has the right to execute them.
"Conform to public opinion".
Although Xiao Tianyi regained his freedom, he was hunted by countless people because of it. The United States of Chia itself was facing a breakdown in public security. These death row prisoners who were sentenced to death lost all legal rights. Therefore, illegal organizations can openly attack them
Human trafficking, organ removal, and a series of darker things. All crimes committed by death row inmates will no longer be traced, but their legitimate rights and interests will no longer be protected by the law.
Many exiled death row prisoners were either shot or captured, and were left with a life worse than death. In order to gain access to positions and attract traffic, some bloggers took the initiative to search for and chase death row prisoners with guns, and broadcast the process of killing death row prisoners live, thus instantly
He became a big V with millions of fans. Later, some TV stations saw business opportunities and made related reality shows, broadcasting variety shows about hunting prisoners. The most frightening thing is that there is also a dark network that offers market odds on the survival time of various death row prisoners.
Gambling, or after capturing the death row prisoners, with the funds paid by the members who subscribe to the video, you can freely watch on the dark web how to deal with these death row prisoners. No matter how heavy the requirements are, as long as you pay the fee, it can be realized.
In the end, most of the death row inmates could be said to live worse than death. In the end, Xiao Tianyi entangled a group of death row inmates, robbed a large number of firearms, and forcibly captured "Bato Walled City", a famous slum in Los Du, the Republic of Chia.
After they captured the walled city, Bato Walled City turned into the most terrifying haunted place. Initially, bloggers who hunted the prisoners in order to attract traffic entered it, but through live broadcast, countless viewers saw what was inside.
There are extremely terrifying evil spirits.
As countless people went to Baator Walled City and died one by one in the end, the various haunted videos spread by a few people after they escaped made people more and more afraid of the place. The government ignored all the crimes of death row prisoners.
Therefore, a tacit understanding was finally formed. Once the prisoners on death row are released, they will flee to the Bato Walled City, and once they escape, almost no one dares to pursue them. This is quite similar to the villains in Gu Long's novel "Peerless Two Prides"
valley.
The Red Wedding took place two years after the fall of the Walled City of Baator.
Xia Li originally only wanted to be a game designer. After the Red Wedding, he inherited his father's legacy and decided to become a prosecutor. He has always wanted to promote legislation so that the government can completely crack down on Bato Walled City, a huge cancer that endangers social security.
.However, even the identity of the murderers who caused the Red Wedding cannot be found out. The only thing that can be found out is that this group of thugs did enter the Bato Walled City afterwards. However, it is almost impossible for ordinary people to survive if they enter it.
came out, but I don't know why the prisoners on death row can avoid all kinds of evil spirits in the walled city and live in it.
However, Xia Li is not the protagonist and does not play many roles in the comics. In recent years, Xia Li has not appeared again. In addition, Zhu Yuyan did not follow the comics after being imprisoned, so she has long been completely forgotten.
This person existed until Xia Li entered the apartment.
At this time, she didn't even notice that the bus started moving again.
After getting off the car, she walked a kilometer to the main entrance of the park. Suddenly she saw Xia Li standing at the entrance, taking pictures with her mobile phone.
"Xia...Xia Li?"
After Xia Li heard her voice, he turned around and saw Zhu Yuyan.
"You came?"
"Um."
Zhu Yuyan walked up to him and said, "Are you taking pictures here?"
"Maybe it will work. Anyway, take some photos first and see."
"This doesn't seem to be the mobile phone you always use?"
"Yes. I bought the cell phone models used by all the residents who carried out this blood letter, including you, and then I can compare the subtle differences in pixels. As for taking pictures here, maybe I will find something when I go back. Wait.
I'll go in as soon as I know. Are you here to check out the spot first?"
"Yeah, but why not come with the others?"
"It's better to be careful when you come to the place where the blood letter is executed."
It was broad daylight at this time, and the park was crowded with people. So even if we knew that this was the location where Scarlet Words would be executed in the future, there was no sense of terror for the time being.
"Xia Li, I want to ask you a question. You..." Zhu Yuyan rubbed her hands, not knowing where she got the courage to ask, "Do you know the cartoonist Qiao Chuyi?"
