The execution ground is in front of a hillside in the suburbs. The criminal vehicle approached slowly and stopped, and the three condemned prisoners were escorted out of the vehicle and taken to the place of execution. Although he is thirty-one years old and has been a policeman for almost a year, this is the first time that Li Binliang watched the execution live, and he watched it from a special angle and with a special identity, and saw it in detail: From the beginning to the end, the prison cell proposed to the public sentencing meeting to pronounce the sentence, until the gunfire of the execution ground, from the beginning to the end, a link was not missed.

The video camera in his hand silently recorded everything in front of him. He pointed the camera at the three prisoners who were about to die, and intentionally or unintentionally stayed on one person for a longer time. This is because he knew him, and speaking of it, there was a little bit of fate. His name was Ji Xiaolong, but Li Binliang used to call him Ji Baozi—that was his name when he was in junior high school.It was him, even though I hadn't seen him for more than ten years, I still recognized him, it was him.It's just that his face is paler than before, a beard has grown on his chin, and he looks older than before. This is the result of time and life in the prison cell.At this time, he was tied up and passed in front of the camera lens of the video camera.

Li Binliang took a step forward with the video recorder on his shoulders, wanting to record it more clearly.This guy, who was famous for fighting in school, was a well-known villain in the city before he was caught, fighting to death.This time, because the victim resisted because of roadblocking, he became angry and took out a sharp knife to kill him.Thus, he came to the end of his sinful life. At this time, he was smiling, and that smile seemed to be somewhat relieved, and his eyes looked around greedily, revealing his nostalgia for life.There seemed to be a little blush on her pale as snow cheeks.He greeted everyone silently with friendly eyes, and said his last farewell.

When he was in junior high school, his name was Ji Bao, and his classmates called him Ji Baozi. Later, he changed his name and became the current Ji Xiaolong.I heard people say that it was changed after watching some movies of martial arts stars in Hong Kong.He thinks he is a dragon. Now, the dragon is about to be executed. What goes around comes around.At this time, Ji Xiaolong was finally full of evil.If you take someone's life, you have to pay with your life, even though the two lives are not equal.However, he deserved it. Li Binliang's video camera left Ji Xiaolong's body and turned to the panorama of the execution ground.He saw that dozens of police officers in charge of security had already arrived, each of them was standing solemnly and fully armed, one a few meters away, forming a semicircle of nearly 100 meters, and the onlookers following the execution vehicle were stopped far away. outside.

Ji Xiaolong was pushed out of the car, and Li Binliang found that he was still smiling, still looking at the onlookers, and greeted the onlookers with friendly eyes, while the other two criminals were already out of their wits. He was dragged down by the police like a dead dog.Only he is still standing still, his eyes are still looking around, is it nostalgia for the world, or is he hoping for some miracle to happen? No miracles. Below the hillside is a patch of gravel.Ji Xiaolong and two fellow travelers were taken to the hillside by the criminal police, and they were asked to kneel down facing the hillside, with their backs to the guns that were about to take their lives.The order to execute was issued, the gun rang, one shot, two shots...

Red flowers flew from the heads of the two criminals, each fell down, and it was his turn. Li Binliang has heard that sometimes, for the heinous criminals, the gunmen on mission will deliberately slow down the rhythm of pulling the trigger to increase the terror of death.Perhaps it was an illusion, Li Binliang felt that the shooter stopped at this moment.Li Binliang pointed the camera at Ji Xiaolong, ready to record a close-up of him being shot.However, at this short pause, Ji Xiaolong's body suddenly moved, his legs wanted to stand up, he struggled to turn his head around, and his mouth moved towards his own video, as if he was saying something...

Just then, gunshots rang out. Red and white viscous liquid splashed, and Ji Xiaolong fell headlong to the ground. Li Binliang was stunned for a moment, then rushed forward quickly, pointing the camera at Ji Xiaolong who fell on the ground: he was dead, the bullet passed through his forehead, and a hole appeared in the back of his head, and the brain and blood flowed out together, which made people look nausea.The forensic examiner turned the body over for an examination.Li Binliang saw that Ji Xiaolong's eyes were still open, and his mouth was also open, as if he was talking to himself.

Li Binliang was attracted by this expression.Ji Xiaolong is dead, but there is still a smile on his face as white as paper, and his dilated pupils seem to be still looking at people and himself.He felt that there seemed to be another pair of eyes behind Ji Xiaolong's frozen eyes, and those eyes were looking at himself through Ji Xiaolong's eyes, from the eyes to the heart, to the depths of the soul.He couldn't help shivering, a kind of terror that he had never felt before came out of his heart... "What, are you scared? Let's go, everyone is dead, what else to record, it's disgusting, let them collect the corpse!"

A person came over, it was Qin Rong, the captain of the criminal police, no, he is now the deputy director in charge of criminal investigation.Not long after he was promoted, Li Binliang couldn't change his name all of a sudden. Back at the bureau, Li Binliang checked the video tape again, and felt that the recording was very good. The important links of the execution process were all recorded, and they were still very clear.He hastily wrote a TV news release, paying special attention to using words such as "you deserve it, you are happy", and finally sent it to the TV station together with the video tape, and suggested to the editor of the TV station to use more scenes of Ji Xiaolong, especially the scene of being shot, This will have a deterrent effect on some criminals.

However, Li Binliang did not see the scene of hope in the news program of the city TV station in the evening.The shots of the leaders at the sentencing meeting took up most of the time, especially Mayor Wei Min's impassioned speech took up a long time. Ji Xiaolong's shots only flashed, and they were all telephoto shots.Later, I heard that Mayor Wei instructed that the TV publicity should pay attention to the orientation, and it is not appropriate to exaggerate the details of the death penalty. That night, Li Binliang had a dream.In the dream, he returned to the execution ground and experienced the process of Ji Xiaolong being shot again.The beginning of the dream is exactly the same as the real experience in life, but it changes at the end.Li Binliang saw that the dead Ji Xiaolong was lying on the ground, staring at him, unable to hide. His eyes were empty and mysterious, and there seemed to be eyes behind them...Suddenly, his eyes moved and he laughed. Ji Xiaolong suddenly came to life, sat up slowly, stared at himself with a smile, and slowly raised a pair of bloody hands, and then stood up again... He was terrified, turned his head and looked around, and found that the policemen were gone, and he There were many women and children behind him, including his own mother, wife and daughter... They all showed expressions of extreme terror.Although Li Binliang was terrified, he knew that he must not shrink back and run away, he couldn't... He grabbed Ji Xiaolong's bloody hand and shouted: "What are you going to do, you are dead, you are dead..."

He wrestled with him...
