Chapter 714: The Shawshank Redemption
The two dined in a high-end restaurant, and after dinner, Jiang Hao was taken to a dance hall, the dance hall was very lively, Johnny called a few of his subordinates to accompany him, everyone drank and chatted together, Johnny held a cigar, lay on the sofa and said to Jiang Hao:
"Do you have a fancy to the girls on the dance floor, as long as you like it, I'll send you directly to the room tonight." Johnny said.
"No, I'm not interested in them." Jiang Hao shrugged.
"Haha too, your girlfriend is the heroine of the movie, and she is indeed beautiful."
"I think Marilyn must have been very happy to hear it."
The two lit cigars, took a sip of their glasses, and Johnny said: "I used to know a guy from New York, that was when I was in prison in Shawshank, there was a guy named Andy from New York, he said he was a banker, and his previous office was on Wall Street."
Listening to Johnny's words, Jiang Hao was stunned.
Shawshank,
Andy
Banker.
Damn, isn't Shawshank Prison a fictional place made up by Steve King, and there is a banker named Andy, is it Andy Dufren, the banker who was unjustly imprisoned in "The Shawshank Redemption".
Jiang Hao has watched that movie and watched it several times, he knows that Andy was indeed wronged, he never gave up fighting for his freedom, but because of the greed of the prison warden, his only chance to clear his grievances was snuffed out, and finally he had to dig a tunnel to escape from the prison.
A pickaxe, a rice spoon, for 19 years, Andy finally dug through the tunnel with an incomprehensible will.
"Where is Shawshank Prison?" Jiang Hao asked.
"In Ohio."
played until late Jiang Hao returned to the hotel, and after returning to the hotel, Jiang Hao immediately asked the front desk to bring a big yellow page, and after rummaging, he finally saw the name of Shawshank Prison, and the location was Ohio.
He had been suspicious before, but now it seems to be true.
Lying in bed, thinking about Shawshank and Andy, the world is really interesting, a lot of movies from the 50s are strung together.
Marilyn Monroe's Seven Year Itch, Mike Corleone of Godfather 2, Noodles from America's Once Upon a Time, and now a Shawshank Redemption.
He met Monroe, had some indirect intersection with his godfather Mike Corleone, noodles became his subordinate, and now he knows about Andy's existence, Jiang Hao has a strong interest in Andy's affairs.
Do you want to save him?
Absolutely!
How to save?
This needs to be carefully considered.
Close his eyes, and carefully go through the movie of the Shawshank redemption in his mind, he has the ability to never forget, as long as he remembers the movies he has watched, he can remember every detail and every picture.
Andy is wronged, and later in the movie, there is a thief Tommy who once tells Andy that he had a roommate named Elmo when he was in prison last time, and once told Tommy that it was he who robbed and killed Andy's wife and her lover.
Just find the burglary and you'll be able to rescue Andy.
Jiang Hao got up from the bed and walked to the table and sat down, took out a blank paper and a pencil from the space, the burglary named Aimo appeared in the movie, and with his memory, Jiang Hao drew the appearance of that person.
With his current painting skills, he can completely draw a person like a real person, looking at the guy with teeth on the portrait, Jiang Hao tapped the drawing paper with a pencil, his brows furrowed slightly, according to the movie timeline, this guy will only go to prison in 8 years, and now he is still running around the world, it is not easy to find such a person, it is like looking for a needle in a haystack.
Well, let's start with Andy and find out if there really is such a person.
Following
Jiang Hao found the largest law firm in Miami through Huang Ye, Jiang Hao dressed up as Iron Man Stark, and came directly to the law firm.
"Sir, what is the matter with you?" The receptionist asked.
"I have a case where I need the best lawyer here, and money is not an issue." Tony Stark has nothing else, but he has a lot of money, and Jiang Hao can't insult this surname.
The smile on the face of the reception lady was as bright as the Miami sun, and the rich clients were their favorite, "No problem sir, Mr. Field is the owner of our law firm and the best lawyer in Miami, please come with me." ”
Jiang Hao met with Field's lawyer, and the two sides exchanged a few polite greetings, and Field's lawyer asked, "I don't know if Mr. Stark has anything that I need to solve?" ”
"I have a friend, his name is Andy Dufran, he was held in Shawshank Prison on the charge of murder, and he was supposed to be in prison in 1947, and now nine years have passed." Jiang Hao said.
Field, somewhat surprised, asked, "Mr. Stark, what do you need me to do?" ”
"Go see him, and gather everything about his case, all." Jiang Hao said.
"Are you planning to overturn the case for him, but nine years have passed." Attorney Field asked, puzzled.
"You just need to do what I ask, don't worry about the rest, for his case, the information must be collected, this is my request." Jiang Hao said.
He couldn't tell Andy anything now, he was afraid that Andy wouldn't be able to resist going to the warden, it would only be bad.
"No problem, you're God." Attorney Field said cheerfully.
"How much is the lawyer's fee?"
"For the time being, you have to pay $5,000 in advance, you know, I need to go to Ohio, and then I need to go to New York to get the case file, and this trip will take a long time." Attorney Field said.
Jiang Hao took out a wad of money from his pocket, separated half from the middle, and put the other half on the table, "This is 5,000 US dollars, I have work to do during this time, you investigate by yourself first, and report the situation to the law firm at any time, I will call the law firm to inquire about the progress when I am free." ”
Seeing the banknotes, the smile on Attorney Field's face became more kind, "No problem at all, you can call my secretary and ask." ”
He has seen a lot of customers who make quirky requests, and as long as there is money to be made, everything is not a problem.
Following
The train taken by the film crew of "Passionate" finally arrived in Miami, and Jiang Hao began to arrange the filming of the film.
On the set, Johnny came over with a group of subordinates, which made the crew nervous again, but seeing Johnny and Director Hall familiar with each other, everyone was relieved.
Many people say that the boss is powerful, and he easily handled the kidnapping of Jack Clement, and now in Miami, there is a gang boss here coming to town, it seems that there should be no accident this time.
It's true, the movie went very smoothly during the shooting, and no one came to make trouble, Miami, because of the role reversal, which was full of jokes and conflicts, which is why this film was selected as the first place in the 100 American comedy classics.
A few days later,
Jiang Hao took the time to call the Field Law Firm and ask about Andy.
"Hello Mr. Stark, I am the secretary of Attorney Field, my boss called back yesterday and said that he had met Mr. Andy, Mr. Andy was very surprised, but the two still talked a lot, about the case and about life"
Shawshank Prison.
When the prison guard came to tell Andy that someone was visiting, he was very surprised, his eyes were stunned for a few seconds, his parents had long since died, his wife had also died, there were no other relatives, and no one had come to see him in the nearly 10 years of prison.
"What's the matter, let's go Andy." The prison guard said.
"Oh, okay, Mark, who's coming?" Andy asked the prison guard.
"It's a lawyer."
Lawyer!
Could it be that the letter of redress I wrote to the court has taken effect and the investigation has been restarted?
At this moment, Andy's heart suddenly became hot.
When he came to the reception room, Andy saw a middle-aged man wearing glasses, who looked shrewd and capable, and this person smiled at Andy and said, "It's Mr. Andy, I'm Field, from Miami." ”
Andy was stunned, he was from Miami, if the court wanted a retrial, shouldn't he be from New York.
Andy squeezed out a smile and reached out to shake Field's hand, "Hello Field." ”
"Let's sit down and talk."
"Okay,"
The two of them sat down, and Andy asked with some curiosity, "I don't know what Lawyer Field is looking for me." ”
Field smiled, "A friend of yours asked me to visit you." ”
"My friend?"
"Mr. Tony Stark."
Andy frowned slightly, searching for the name Tony Stark in his mind, he didn't seem to have such a friend, and Andy was also a very smart guy, otherwise he wouldn't have become a banker at a young age.
"Don't you have an impression?"
"yes, I can't remember." Andy shook his head slightly.
Field smiled, "That's not the point, can you tell me about your case?" ”
"You're here to investigate my case?" Andy asked.
Field shrugged, "That's what my client, Mr. Tony Stark, asked me to tell me that you were in prison for the murder of your wife and her mistress, and I want to know all the details of your case, and after meeting with you, I'm going to go to the New York State Court to get your case file." ”
Andy swallowed hard, and said with some excitement: "That Tony Stark, is he going to help me overturn the case?" ”
"My customer didn't say anything, he just told me I wanted to know about the situation."
Andy stabilized his mind for a while, slowly fell into memory, and said in a low voice: "My relationship with my wife was in crisis, she got involved with a baseball player, we had a big argument that day, she said she didn't want to be sneaky, and she had to go to Renault City for a divorce. ”
Then she packed her bags and moved straight to live with the baseball coach at the country club named Glenquentin.
"That night, I first went to the bar to get drunk, I drank a lot of alcohol, my brain was dizzy, I went to his door, prepared a gun, but in the end I didn't do anything, slowly cleared my head, I drove home, on the way, threw the gun into the river under the bridge, went home to sleep, but the next day the police arrested me, and the prosecutor charged me with murder."
"I can swear to God that I really didn't do it, but no one listened to me, and they didn't find the gun, so they convicted me of two life sentences because I couldn't deny that I didn't shoot it."
Speaking of which, Andy's affection is very sad.
