210 Executions
After yesterday's topic was over, Li Tianyang couldn't sleep well when he went home, and he always thought of Lipton's calm expression at that time, knowing that everyone was discussing his life at that time, and finally unanimously passed the resolution to hang him, and he didn't defend himself. It was only when Li Tianyang said that he wanted to compensate Philip's family, he looked at Li Tianyang a few times worriedly, thinking that Li Tianyang was going to find trouble with his relatives, and finally when he heard Li Tianyang's words, he put his mind at ease and sat down quietly on his knees.
Although the matter had been defined in the JISC building yesterday, Lipton was still not at peace today, and was taken by the JISC to the square outside the camp and publicly briefed him on his case in front of many natives, so that everyone in the camp knew the whole story. To say, if you do this, it is really a bit inhumane, they are all people who are going to die, and they still toss people like this, but there is no way to do it: as the first camp murder case, Anqing is so typical, Li Tianyang and they have no choice but to ignore Lipton's will, hoping that the thousands of people in the camp can learn lessons and warnings through this case, and stop doing stupid things.
For example, for two days, the Lipton murder case in the Bengang camp can almost be said to be known to everyone, and even a five-year-old child can tell the story of this case.
Early in the morning of the third day, Li Tianyang got up, climbed to the wall of the camp and stayed, observing every move inside and outside the camp until Lipton was escorted out of the camp cell. When Lipton was escorted out, it was not actually noon, but in the middle of the hour, and it was before he was executed that he was dragged around the residential area of the camp for a while, and finally sent to the beach outside the camp for execution.
The gallows on the beach had been erected on the day Li Tianyang and the others passed the resolution, and it had been erected the next day, and now it was standing alone on the empty beach. As Lipton was escorted to this side, more and more natives and homeless people came here to watch the excitement, and the originally empty beach was encircled.
As for Li Tianyang, he only watched Lipton and his team leave the camp and return to their residence. Although the walls of the camp are high, he can't see the situation on this side of the beach, and Li Tianyang doesn't want to see this indigenous person who was pushed to the guillotine by him alive.
"It's noon, execution!!" It was not Li Tianyang who presided over the execution today, nor was he a member of the camp, but someone who was handed over by Li Tianyang to the Supervisory Committee.
As soon as the words fell, Lipton was pushed onto the gallows with a knotted rope hanging from his head. He glanced nostalgically at the crowd below, especially in a corner of the crowd, his gaze was there for a long time, and finally he smiled and muttered something in his mouth, but the room was too noisy, and I was afraid that no one could hear what he said.
In the corner where Lipton's eyes stayed, standing were his relatives who had rushed over from the Black Earth Pass tribe, his wife and two children were looking at him with tears in their eyes, although others didn't know what Lipton had just said, but as his wife, she heard it clearly: "Live well and take care of our children." ”
In private, Lipton and his wife and children have actually met a long time ago, Li Tianyang is not an unkind person, although Lipton deserves to kill people, but he has never quibbled or covered up his behavior. Of course, Li Tianyang also admires such a man, so he has arranged a final reunion between him and his relatives every night in the past few days, so that they can live their last time.
The final parting time was always so short, and when Lipton wanted to look at his wife and children a few more times, the executioner behind him did not give him this chance again, and with a push of his hand, he pushed him off the high gallows.
Then, Lipton's feet shook vigorously in the suspended air, and then his face turned blue, his eyes widened, and he died of exhaustion in a short time. His corpse swayed like a swing on the towering scaffolding.
The originally noisy and chaotic crowd suddenly became silent at the moment of execution, and everyone's eyes widened, watching Lipton turn into a walking corpse dangling in front of them, and their hearts were full of different feelings. Maybe some people once felt that he deserved it, and some people were upset about him, but at this moment, everything before was a thing of the past for Lipton
"Daddy!!"
"Father!!"
Of course, there is always a heartbreak for his passing, and as Lipton's breath faded, Lipton's wife and children, who were already full of tears, finally couldn't help crying. Perhaps Lipton killed someone, and in the eyes of many people he was a damned man, but in the eyes of his relatives, he was a qualified husband, a kind father, and a filial son, and their love for him did not change in the slightest because of what he did.
And at the moment of the execution, although Li Tianyang was not present, but he also had a heart, looking at the direction of the execution from where he was, through the many obstructions, he couldn't help but sigh, and whispered to himself: "Go all the way, don't blame me, if you don't do this, you can only live like this ignorance in the future, and your children will never be at peace!" ”
As the execution ended, the crowd of onlookers gradually dispersed, except for Lipton's relatives, who remained by the corpse and stayed with him on the empty beach.
Although the execution was over, Lipton's body could not be put down immediately and handed over to his relatives for burial. In order to make a negative teaching material for everyone, Li Tianyang and the others could only hang Lipton's body on the gallows for three days in a very inhumane way to set an example.
On the day Lipton's body was put down, Li Tianyang and the others had already left Bengang early, and with a group of Bengang team members, they continued their great cause of conquest and marched towards the next pirate target.
For Li Tianyang, I think it is a person, especially a person who has crossed over from the afterlife, and it is very difficult to change his nature all at once, just like his seemingly weak psychological changes in this chapter.
