Returning from the abyss

Chapter 191 Noble Death
The exterior of the Old Prison Museum is a middle-aged gray stone building with three floors, surrounded by a fence of about [-] meters, and wires are wrapped around the fence.The museum occupies a large area, and there are many prison cells in it. As the first floor for heavy criminals, it fully reflects the characteristics of narrow rooms and wide corridors.When the iron door slammed shut behind him, Lu Ning could even feel the depressing sense of despair here.

Especially today she seems to be the only visitor.

As the order of the tour, the tourist guide says that it is best to visit in the order of the prison cell, the activity field, the prison inspection field, and the prison guard's office.

As a city where crime is legal, this place does not make any glorification of criminals, nor does it demean the prison guards who died here.They made specimens of all the corpses, and preserved all the scenes that happened here back then. Leaving aside the appearance of bloody horror, the introduction was quite objective.

All the cells have been opened, and Lu Ning can see every felony prisoner here and what they did. Their deaths were recorded and played in a loop, and even the corpses were placed here, with ferocious look.

Among so many, there is but one exception.

His body was placed under the gallows at the end of the first floor, wearing a white robe, with a look of pity on his face, only a slightly golden beard could be seen because his hair was shaved, enclosed in a huge glass cabinet.

(Ricufel·G·Hitophlq)

He is called "Father" by the prisoners here.

He became the only awakened one among the prison inmates.

His death sparked the largest and final escape in history here.

He will remain here forever to commemorate that noble death. 】

The nameplate says so.

Then there is an introduction about the person.He had many occupations in his life, doctor, pastor, writer, teacher, and at the age of 44, he became a philanthropist and helped many children and the elderly.These good names were completely erased when he was 50 years old because of a mass suicide.Risufo and all the people he helped ended their lives in various extremely bizarre ways at their birthday party, and in the end he was the only one alive.

People at the time didn't know why he survived, but Risuvo said nothing, only declared his guilt and put him in prison.The strange thing is that no matter how vicious the prisoner was, he would respect Risufo, who was already old at the time, and his popularity in the prison was surprisingly good.

But a year later, twelve prisoners committed suicide at the same time, and he was still the only survivor present.

Even with superpowers, people still don't know what happened.After much debate, the sentence to execute him was finally handed down, and Risuvo did not raise any objections to it.

The execution was carried out five days after the verdict was handed down, and the sky was so clear that there was not a cloud in sight.When Risuvo went to the gallows and the noose was around his neck, he completed the "awakening" of his abilities.

So much for the record.

There are no video records left here. Underneath the bronze plaque recording Lisufo's life, there are hundreds of signatures engraved. Lu Ning took out her mobile phone to take pictures of all these signatures, and then went upstairs.

The higher you go, the lighter the sentence, and the more spacious the cell.Go around the two iron gates along this side, and you can walk to the activity place and labor area surrounded by iron fences. There is also no one, and there are no corpses on display here.

Lu Ning sat on a stone bench and rested for a while, and soon after, a staff member came up.

When the other party saw Lu Ning, she just greeted her, then opened a small utility room, took out a mop and bucket, and began to clean the area.

"Are you alone in charge of this work?"

Lu Ning looked at the field that was nearly the size of four basketball courts, then at the staff member, and asked.

"Yes, I work four hours every afternoon to clean the place as a whole." The staff member smiled at Lu Ning, "Originally the prisoners were responsible for the cleaning here, but now it's a museum."

"But you can also hire more people?"

"You should understand that one more person equals one more salary." The staff member lowered his head and continued mopping the floor, "The living students here will not be willing to volunteer, only people like us will."

"People like you?"

"No money, no knowledge, no skills." The staff member pointed to himself, "Fortunately, my mentality is relatively optimistic. They seem to value this very much when recruiting people."

"is it?"

"Well, I was repeatedly asked if I was an optimistic person. I said that if I am already like this, I can still say hello to everyone I see on the road every morning. It should be considered very optimistic."

Lu Ning nodded.

"The salary here is good, and I now earn enough money for my adult university courses. Everything is much better than when I first came here... Life will always get better, won't it?"

"Maybe……"

"Haha, I'm afraid your mentality is not suitable for this job." The staff smiled and pointed to the door on the other side, "From there you can lead to the prison guard's office. There are more employees there and they know it better. , If you are curious, you can ask them."

Lu Ning thanked him, got up and walked over there, and heard the young man humming a cheerful tune while walking.

"Do you know Risuvo?"

"Oh, Noble Death, there is an exhibition of his corpse on the first floor."

"Do you know whose signatures are those?"

"I don't know...I've been working here for four or five years, and I've never seen anyone sign there, but the number of signatures seems to have increased. I guess I signed when I wasn't working."

"Thank you for your answer."

Lu Ning opened the door and walked into the slightly brighter passage.She didn't continue to check on the prison guards. After leaving the museum, she went directly to the library in the fifth district.

It's really strange.

All the records are in the form of records, and the dates of birth and death of everyone are unknown, and there is no age mark in the entire museum, which seems to be tacitly tacit that all of these happened before the establishment of the city.

On the other hand, the members of the Council of Heaven don't seem to mind putting some extremely obvious evidence in the open. People who are a little more careful can find a lot of clues, but these side details have a real impact on the entire city. limited.

She came to the library and searched for documents related to the narrative of "Noble Death". Sure enough, most of them were pictures, and even the text was similar to the situation in the museum. As for reports, there were no such things at all.

When I searched for "Lisufo" again, I found a book.

"Death Studies Volume Four - Risufo G. Hightofilco"

This book can still be borrowed at present, Lu Ning immediately used her student ID card to issue a book-borrowing certificate to borrow the book, and then immediately took a taxi home.

On the way home, she received another call from Si Fangle.

"Lu Ning, where did you go this afternoon?"

"Five districts, what's the problem?"

"Bai Mu and Gui found Lao Cheng and me and planned to join forces with us. There is something wrong with him."

"what is the problem?"

"Do you remember Yuichi Kobayakawa?"

"of course."

"He's missing."

Lu Ning's pupils shrank slightly.

The tourists in the scene will always die, which is unavoidable, and everyone is working hard to make the dead not their own.And once people start dying, it means that the previous false peace has torn off its pretense.

"Confirmed death?"

"Not yet. He was temporarily unemployed because of the restaurant explosion, so he happened to do a lot of investigation work, but Kashiwagi and Ki have not been in touch with him for more than a day, which basically means that they cannot be contacted or even died."

"Last known location?"

"He's going to sneak into the perimeter of the research institute in District [-] to observe the surrounding security situation."

"If it was me, it's best not to agree to join forces with the other party now." Lu Ning said.

"It's a pity that Lao Cheng has already agreed. He seems to have some leverage. In addition, he seems to plan to leave in fifteen days. We have already done a lot of tasks, and I have also completed the tasks of the serial murderer."

"What? How was it done?"

"Old Cheng analyzed it for me. It seems that only a serial murderer registered on HELLSPEED is counted for killing. Maybe... it doesn't need to be on the wanted list at all, and anyone registered on HELLSPEED counts."

"Thanks."

"You're welcome. I hope this helps you. After all, if Lao Cheng leaves, I will definitely not stay. I wish you... a smooth survival."

Si Fangle hung up the phone.

To kill a person on HELLSPEED, if this news is verified to be true, I am afraid that tourists will start a fight, right?After all, the previous people did not know who was a registered user, but almost everyone has registered on that account under the compulsory task of tourists.

Lu Ning thought about it carefully, and there are quite a few people who know her identity. If there are other tourists who are going to deal with her, it will be really troublesome.

"Nothing important on Thursday, Friday...school is off."

The Sabbath falls on the weekend, so when Japan's holiday is moved to Friday, it happens that Lu Ning has more things to do on this day.During the day, I need to go to the Queen's Golden Crown casino, and at night, I have to go to Cen Mujian's concert with Han Qing.

After that, Lu Ning felt that there was a high probability that she would not be able to maintain the basic performance of going to class every day, so why not take this opportunity...

After thinking about it again and again, the car drove back to his door.

Shimono Ye Nai prepared dinner. Although the bland Japanese style didn't quite suit Lu Ning's taste, she wasn't particularly picky either.After gradually getting used to the other party's irregular going out habits, Lu Ning found that she was quite able to get along with the other party.

After dinner, she went back to her bedroom and began to read the book.

Risuvo's life is not very dazzling.As a young man born in the countryside of a small country, he has experienced wars and has been displaced between many countries since childhood.When he was about 12 years old, Risuvo was adopted by a kind grocer who gave him a basic education at about the high school level.Risuvo began working as a grocery store servant, self-taught courses in medicine, education and theology, and rose to prominence at the age of 22 for emergency treatment of a town nobleman.

Unfortunately, just as Lisuvo's career was booming, the flames of war once again spread to the area where he lived.An air raid turned the whole town into ruins. Risufor escaped the air raid because he went out for medical treatment, but when he returned to the town, the tragedy he witnessed completely broke him down for a while.While receiving psychotherapy, he met his first wife, a kind and beautiful nurse.

This marriage lasted for six years. Lisufo married the nurse after he was discharged from the hospital. After that, he also worked as a temporary laborer there because he was taken care of by the local church.His rich theological knowledge was quickly appreciated by the priest, and the psychological counseling experience gained from his long illness and medical treatment gradually gathered a group of believers.But at the age of 29, Lisufo learned that the officer who had given the order to destroy the town was retiring, and immediately left his peaceful life full of vengeful anger.Nineteen days later, the officer was found dead in his hotel room with no apparent injuries.

Although a confession was made after that, Risuvo's marriage ended.He accepted the priest's proposal and moved to another remote and poor town where no one knew his name or his past.About a year later, Risufo married a local woman and gave birth to three sons and a daughter.But the good times didn't last long, and a plague swept across the surrounding countries took away all his family members.It was for this reason that Lisufo developed a cure for the plague. The Royal Society of Medicine discovered him and recruited him as an expatriate doctor in the hospital. In the following years, he became a very famous doctor because of his plague-related research. Physician, wrote books, imparted knowledge, and started his own philanthropy.

Until... at the age of 50, the mass suicide incident brought another turning point in his life.

The book uses about two chapters to describe Risufo's life.This person's life is undoubtedly full of tragedies, and whenever he reaches a peak in life, he will immediately be hit by a cliff to the lowest valley.His life experience can be said to be rich, but Lu Ning still can't imagine what kind of person this is just based on the description in the book.

She flipped to the research section at the back.

The author also visited many places in order to study Risufo's life.Many things in the disastrous first half of his life have been annihilated, and after that, Risuvo has no habit of keeping a diary.

But the authors of this book still found something.

[The author visited the old house where Risufo lived as a philanthropist. It was rebuilt after that incident, and some of Risufo's personal belongings in his later years are also preserved here.After negotiating, the author was able to view his research records during his forties.During this period of time, all of Lisufo's research was on the containment and treatment of the plague, which seems to be taken for granted, but it is worth mentioning that during this period of time, he hardly saw anything about the theology he once believed in. Research notes exist.According to the author's conjecture, although Lisufo is still a believer on the surface, he had already turned his back on the gods when the plague took away his happiness again. 】

　Off topic...does anyone know where the comments are updated in the background?I can't even receive the news of the comments on the post (ω) Could it be that this function is not arranged because it is too troublesome?
