On weekends, worship services.

As a believer in the church, Catherine did not take advantage of the geographical advantage to rush to the church first, but waited until it was almost noon, and after the other worshippers left, she changed her clothes and went, as her husband, Kyle would accompany her from the beginning, even if the situation was a little special this time.

"Hello Catherine, Kyle, alas...... Poor boy, get on in. ”

Pastor Crow sat in a black robe, holding the "New Testament", he still looked so kind, although it was a little Mediterranean, but it did not affect his temperament at all, the white hair and white beard on the back of his head were still combed by him in an orderly manner, and after seeing the husband and wife, he did not show any strange expressions, but just patted Kyle on the shoulder, proving that there was something about Kyle, and he had heard about it.

Entering the church, Catherine knelt on the futon in front of her, crossed her hands into fists, closed her eyes, recited the Bible with the priest, and prayed for Kyle and herself, and Kyle sat on the last bench as usual, without making any moves, just looking at Catherine until the service was over, and the couple were ready to leave.

"Kyle, I think you should also pray that only the Lord can forgive your sins and it's time to become a believer. ”

Catherine felt Kyle's palm clenched violently, and could only shake Kyle's arm desperately, looking embarrassed and pleading, but Kyle knew that if he really prayed, then his crime was really established, although the police would not use his prayer as evidence, but others may not.

"I'm sorry Pastor Crowe, but I don't think I need to pray. ”

"Listen to Kyle...... The mistake you made is too serious, you are a good boy, you should not have taken this path, I want to thank you for helping me tow the car, so I will also help you, ask the Lord to forgive you for your mistakes, or you will go to hell!"

"If the slander of the people can convict me, then I believe that hell is not so terrible. ”

Hearing Kyle's words, Pastor Crow was unhappy, he really had good intentions, and hoped that he would be forgiven by his faith, and that he would not have to suffer after death in the future, otherwise, the person who committed such a mistake would be absolutely hateful according to the personal feelings of the pastor.

"Kyle, I'm here to help you, don't be obsessed anymore, follow my advice, kid. ”

"Sorry pastor, I really don't need to, thank you for your help, but I don't feel like I've done anything wrong. ”

Kyle refused, this time pulling Catherine to leave without hesitation, and the priest was not so angry that he was angry.

"Kyle, you have committed such a wicked sin, are you really not afraid of the future!"

Anger, not only the priesthood, but Kyle, and the source of his anger is clearer, anger is rising, sin? Whose sin is this?

"If good and evil really are decided by victory or defeat...... Then you win, you are righteous, I am evil! I am evil! I am willing to go to hell! Even if I am labeled evil, my soul is free......

Regardless of the stunned priest, he strode away with Catherine and returned home on foot, but still depressed, and Catherine did not know how to comfort him, so she remained silent until she ...... Sirens sounded.

......

Ever since Kyle was taken away for interrogation, Catherine has lived alone in the most remote corner of Ilcroixburg, and it is only now that she begins to fear and regret why she chose to settle here despite Kyle's advice.

Some of the sources of fear and anxiety are stones or small animal carcasses that break windows and drink at night, when night comes.

It was too hard for a woman to endure these hours, so much so that she would fall asleep every night with tears in her eyes looking at Kyle's picture, and even if there was another glass shattering, she would not dare to get up to check it, so she could only lock her door and use the sofa against the door to ensure her own safety.

As for the alarm...... It always takes more than an hour to get out of the police.

She lost her job, and her supervisor told her by phone that she was fired, which was unreasonable, and she didn't even have a notice of dismissal, of course it was unreasonable, but her current life was unreasonable.

She can only hide at home every day, not going out, hoping that Kyle will come back today, but more than a month has passed, and there is still no news from him.

Eventually, she had to get out of the house, out of fear, because there was no food left in the house.

God knows what a shadow a woman's experience must have been when she was forced into social phobia in a short period of time, but she still didn't complain, because she knew that Kyle's experience must be more painful than hers.

Driving to the bazaar in Ilkrëburg, the moment you get off the bus, your intuition already feels a few cold eyes, and after entering the bazaar, this cold treatment becomes even more obvious.

Asking about the ingredients, no one paid attention, asking about the spices, still no one paid attention, everyone held their hands in their arms and looked at her coldly, at least in her memory.

Until she gave up and was about to drive to Liverpool to buy ingredients, when she just turned around, she collided with another woman, saying that it was a woman...... may have praised her, this figure is at least three women.

"Are you XXX blind? You XXXXXX XXXX, damn cousin! Your man treats my child like that, I really want him to die in prison. ”

It was obvious that she had come on purpose to find fault and that she was a fat woman suffering from paranoia that her child had been killed, but no one on the street stopped her, and even when the woman did it, the crowd erupted in laughter.

Catherine, who was not an opponent in the first slap, was already beaten at the first slap, and even forgot to fight back, just holding her bag tightly.

And when the woman saw that she didn't fight back, she fought more and more, the women around her laughed, and the men even began to support the woman, and at this moment they were all no longer human, more like monsters demonized collectively, smiling sharply, doing what they thought was fighting for justice.

When she remembered it again, her hair was scattered, her clothes had been torn off, revealing her bra inside, she was covered in mud, the seller looked at her like air, and pedestrians stepped over her, and finally she couldn't help it, and no one could hold back, she got up, covered her upper body with her bag, and tears were falling down.

"Are you okay, ma'am? God, what the hell are going on with them? I've called the police for you, let's put on your clothes first." ”

A long-haired man who seemed to be of mixed race showed fear on his face for these indifferent people, he witnessed the second half of her being beaten by the fat woman, he wanted to go to the fight, but was pulled by the people watching the play, he had no choice but to call the police, and when the crowd dispersed, he came to help, he didn't know what happened to the people here, he just felt shuddering.

And Catherine's long-pent-up resentment erupted at this moment, in this case, it is okay to be treated indifferently, but she is afraid of being cared for, and when the grievance erupts, no one can bear it.

She refused the man's move to strip and come over, covered her chest, buried her head in it, reached out to signal the man not to come, and kept sobbing.

"They can't do that...... No one can do that to anyone else...... This is not right, how can they do this...... Day after day, there is no rest, it seems that they are doing the right thing, but why can they harm others in the name of justice...... They...... Why?"

"Ma'am, calm down, are you okay? Do you want to go to the hospital? Put on your clothes first. ”

“NO！NO！”

She refused the kindness again, ignored the man's obstruction, turned to leave, the man had no choice but to watch her slowly get into the car, and then cry on the steering wheel.

"Did you call the police?"

“emm...... Yes, just now someone was beating someone here, and the person who was beaten was in the car. ”

The scene that turned out to be even more hairy happened, and the policeman, who was no different from everyone on the street, laughed, and one of the officers went and knocked on the window of the car, and asked if he needed help, and then, as if he had received some answer, turned around and shrugged his shoulders indifferently, and told Catherine to hurry away.

"Are you really a police officer? How can you do that? Turning a blind eye to violence? She's a victim!"

"Of course we're the police, do you want to see if I have a real gun?"

"Oh God...... People here are crazy!"

......

She was no longer in the mood to buy food, and drove back home, only to see the man she had been thinking about all these days standing at the door, rubbing his eyes...... It's true.

"Catherine, Fake, how can they do this to you? This has nothing to do with you, I'm sorry, I'm sorry...... It's me who is bad, I'm sorry ......"

He hugged Catherine and said sorry over and over again, his eyes desperate and empty, all these days, what he had met and what had happened had destroyed his whole person, his soul......

The bastard killed him.

"Kyle...... Let's leave, I'm fed up! I'm really fed up with everything here! Why make everything look like we're doing something wrong? All the children's confessions are completely different! Even those kids don't know you're married, and they say you're bringing them home and say you've been taken into the basement, but we don't have a basement at all! They know they're wrong, but they're still hurting us! Let's go...... It's good to go anywhere. ”

"I'm sorry Catherine, I can't leave until I can tell everyone that they're wrong......"

"But does it matter right or wrong now! We've been hurt so much, why should you endure it any longer?"

"I want an apology...... I want an apology to me and to you......"

"But they won't apologize! Never! I'll ask you one last thing, I'm leaving, will you come with me?"

"I want an apology......"

"fu·ck you Kyle!What's the use of asking for their apologies?For the sake of your free soul!I'm really disappointed in you!I've never believed you to do that, but before that, I understand that people can change all your opinions with violence!I'm starting to wonder if you really did it, otherwise why would they hate you so much!Now come with me, don't make me hate you too......"

"I ...... Just an apology. ”

"You're so fucking hopeless! I'm not going to live this with you anymore, I'm not going to be beaten again, I'm not going to be torn apart for others to see! I'm not going to be scolded by drunkards anymore, I'm not going to sleep in a ventilated house every night, I hate you Kyle! I'm going to leave now!"

She really went to pack up her things, which is understandable, people's feelings cannot be indestructible, they can be worn out by external objects, which the world has long recognized, so everyone will agree that feelings need to be managed.

It's not that catastrophe is coming, it's just that Kyle is willing to accept it out of fear of a future of visible suffering, but she doesn't.

Kyle watched numbly as she packed her luggage and left the room with her suitcase, during which she repeatedly asked Kyle if he would leave with her, but he only repeated the phrase.

"I want an apology......

"Kyle, your life is already predictable, it must be very difficult, I'm sorry, I can't bear it with you, I'm sorry...... I love you Kyle, but that future is so terrible, I'm gone, I'm sorry......"

She cried and drove away in her car, escaping from the cage where the demons were kept, but leaving her lover there, standing in the doorway, watching her leave.

......

Catherine's departure brought a lot of disadvantages, at least he couldn't cook, and could only live on some fast food and cereal milk, but there was always a time when he needed to go out and buy some food, so he went to the supermarket, which was extremely unwelcoming to him.

I took a few packets of cereal and stuffed them into my shopping basket, and I took a food with a longer shelf life, such as canned food, and went to the cash register to pay in silence under the cold eyes of other customers.

"A total of one hundred and thirty-three pieces of five. ”

He did get drunk and shook himself out of his wallet, but another male employee ran up from a distance, pushed the food aside, grabbed Kyle by the collar and threw him far away.

"Get out, you're not welcome here, and I won't sell you anything, get out of here, or I'll kill you. ”

"I have the right to use my rightful income to buy any goods that are sold out......"

"Huh...... Are you stupid? I told you to get out, did you hear me? Get out of here!"

The clerk pushes Kyle and points in the direction of the door to tell him to leave, and Kyle listens to him and walks out the door, but with a packet of cereal under his arm, and a bag of cereal money thrown down from the counter.

When the clerk found out, he directly snatched the cereal, and even punched him directly, this punch hit the chin, so that Kyle smashed directly to the ground head-on, and it took a long time to get up, face the sneering clerk, pick up the cereal, and then punch him hard in the nose!

"Grass!

It wasn't until his face was covered in blood that he was thrown out of the store along with the merchandise he had chosen, that Kyle lay in the eyes of passers-by for a while, and finally got up, picked up the food, shook his body, and slowly left.

"Kyle......! What's wrong?"

In the open-air parking lot in front of the supermarket, the Kars family is about to leave, and Judy screams when she sees Kyle, drawing everyone's attention.

"Oh my God...... It's really miserable to look at, but he doesn't deserve pity. ”

The family is lamenting Kyle's embarrassment and despair now, only Karls, who is in the driver's seat, has a painful and struggling face, and as if he has made up his mind, his expression has become resolute again, for the sake of his family, this pain...... Sorry, Kyle has to bear it alone, but when he looks at Kyle, he unexpectedly finds them too, and as he walks, he gives the family a middle finger.

This makes the irascible Mrs. Karls unable to bear it anymore, and picks up the glass bottle that has just been drunk by the child, and throws it at Kyle until the bottle shatters at Kyle's feet, only to find that Kyle is indifferent to the secret weapon, as if she had never thrown it, without raising her head, stepping on the glass shards and leaving.

A family of five, three with unforgettable hatred and one with guilt, only Judy was lying on the car window, with a small head and no idea what she was thinking.

......

Four months later, Christmas Day.

The room was full of wine bottles and cigarette butts, and Kyle slept peacefully in the clutter, until there was a knock on the door, he slowly got up and opened the door, to his surprise, someone would come knocking on his door, and to his surprise, it was Judy who knocked on the door, wearing a new trench coat, dressed bright and cute, as beautiful as a porcelain doll.

"Kyle, are you going to church?"

He stared into Judy's eyes, bright, clear, and never seemed to hide dirt, and he hated the culprit for ruining everything for him, but she was a child, and he couldn't get revenge.

Without answering, he pulled the door and slowly closed it, but she opened the door and looked at Kyle innocently.

"I've been studying hard, but I'm tired, Kyle...... Does reading really set the soul free?"

At this time, Kyle's beard was unshaven, his eyes were bloodshot, and his whole body was scarred, and when he heard Judy's question, he finally answered in a hoarse voice.

“NO......”

He closed the door.

......

At Christmas, it was time for him to take a good shower, he immersed himself in the bathtub, as if he was going to drown, and finally got up from the bathtub, shaved his beard, bandaged the wounds with gauze, changed into his most expensive suit, put on a black tie, looked out of the window, the church was lit up, and it was so lively, and he, sitting on a wooden chair, opened a bottle of whiskey, and took a sip.

As night falls, the church's activities begin in earnest, creating a stark contrast between the brightly lit church and Kyle's dirty, dimly lit room, and then ...... The junior choir sang the classic song, "Ave Verum Corpus." (Please open the player to listen)

"Venerated like a true Eucharist. ”

"He was born of the chaste Virgin Mary. ”

"Suffering, making sacrifices. ”

"For humanity, to be punished on the cross. ”

Kyle took a heavy sip of his drink, and he remembered that he had sung this song with Catherine in church at this time, but now, he was the only one left in the dimly lit room, and he was a little drunk, leaning against the back of the wooden chair, looking at the portrait of Jesus Jesus that Catherine had not taken with him, and singing the song along with the choir.

"His body was pierced. ”

"It was his blood that flowed. ”

"For us, tried beforehand. ”

"Judgment of Death ......"

Gradually, in the moonlight, his eyes began to sparkle, and he began to choke, looking at the portrait, distracted......

"You are a safe haven for most people, whether they are right or wrong? Can you answer me, what is my fault? Will what I do really be defined as evil?"

"Is it fair that the Kars family is reconciled again, no longer quarrelling, and understanding each other, but this is at the expense of my happiness?"

"If you're really powerful...... So look at what these people have done to support you, and what have I lost because of it? Can you see it?"

The camera shows the people in the church, they are singing holy songs, their faces are solemn, accompanied by golden lights, and their singing is melodious, but how hideous were these people before that?

Kyle gulped down the wine with tears in his eyes, but he didn't let it go, and finally drank half of the bottle in one gulp, letting out a long sigh full of painful moans.

"What should I apologize for what I have done? Why have I been wronged and I can't clear my name? Look at ...... Look at what they've done! and the pain I've endured!"

His right foot smashed on the dining table, he pulled his trouser leg apart, and inside was an electronic leg cuff, still flashing red, which was why he didn't leave with Catherine, not that he didn't want to leave, but that he couldn't leave at all!

Didn't they know that they were wrong? Didn't everyone suspect after seeing the child's dictation? Wrong, everyone knew they were wrong, but it was the people who sang in the church! After realizing their mistake, they still refused to repent, but instead handcuffed him again, and continued to commit atrocities against him in this village on the grounds that they were still investigating!

For what...... It's to lie to his conscience and really treat Kyle as a criminal, so that everyone in the church can sleep peacefully and not have to apologize for the mistakes they committed to Kyle......

"Am I a beast? Am I their pet? Am I the object of any bullying and venting I can take? Open your eyes and see! Jesus! What the hell am I?shut up!shut up!!shut up!!

The bottles smashed into the walls and shattered into pieces, screaming at the people still singing carols in the church, the eaves blocked the moonlight and blocked half of the portrait, and the upper part of Jesus' head was hidden in the dark shadows, as if blindfolded.

"I want to die! But I'm missing an apology, I'm missing everyone to say sorry to me...... So I can't die, or I'm dead, so what's the point of me still breathing?"

A small cutter was picked up, and Kyle, with hatred and rage, connected the power supply, made a sharp noise, took a deep breath, and placed it on his feet......

After the spark splashed, it cut into the flesh, and the blood gushed out instantly, staining the trousers, but he didn't care, threw the cutter on the ground, and with drunkenness, pushed open the door, and a wind and snow blew in.

The blood melted the snow and formed bloody footprints, and he broke into the church, and in the midst of everyone's screams, he grabbed the nearest supermarket employee, widened his eyes, and asked frantically......

"Do you see my heart!"

Then he grabbed the sheriff who wanted to escape, and roared hoarsely......

"Do you see my heart!"

Principal Shirley, the fat woman, Catherine's supervisor, the parents of the students, the Pastor Crow, he asked everyone until there were Mr. and Mrs. Kars standing in front of them.

"Do you see my heart!!"

A punch slammed into Kars, in front of his wife, pulling him up from the ground, Kyle pointing to his chest and shaking his head.

"Do you see? There's nothing in there...... Nothing...... Ho~phew!"

He laughed and left, no one dared to stop him, let alone beat him, everyone looked at him like a monster, but he didn't know that Kyle was the only "person" in the church......

It's like an interesting effect, the psychologist tied himself up, blindfolded, took sleeping pills, and let people fiddle with him, at first they just touched his face gently, then they got emboldened, kicked him twice, hit him twice, and finally pulled out his pistol......

But when he woke up and was untied at the end of the experiment, the people who were going to kill him while he was sleeping fled in fear, just like the people in the church.

Shameful!

......

Kyle did not leave Ilkrëburg after this, but continued to live there for twenty years, and after Christmas that night, the people did not target him again, but did not dare to look him in the eye, and demanded that their children not associate with him......

Twenty years later......

A man and a woman are walking on a path covered with fallen leaves, holding hands and constantly shaking around, and it can be seen that they are a young couple with a good relationship.

"Is this where you grew up? It's really beautiful......"

The girl smiled and didn't answer, just accompanied him to every corner, for her, being admitted to a good university, meeting an excellent boyfriend, and getting out of the shadow of her father is a great blessing for the rest of her life.

Until the two of them reached the end of the path, a house full of creepers came into view, and in the courtyard, a sloppy man was wielding a hoe vigorously, looking somewhat eerie.

"Who is he, and how does he live here?"

"He heard from his family that he had sinned before, and then he settled here, and he rarely interacted with the outside world. ”

"This ...... What crime have you committed to live alone here?"

"Forgot, it could be murder? or it could be **, in short, it's a big crime. ”

The man seemed to hear the sound, turned to look back at the two of them, and then casually raised the hoe, once, twice, and lifted up layer after layer of dirt.

He ...... It's not going to bury someone, is it?"

"What do you think, if someone in the village is missing, he should have been suspected a long time ago, don't think about it. ”

"That's right, but it looks a little scary, so let's go...... Judy. ”

After the two left, the camera panned in the direction of Kyle little by little, he did dig a big hole, and he did want to bury people, but not others, but ...... Bury yourself.

A hand-knocked tombstone with a name and date of birth written on it, and an epitaph below.

The picture is black, only the epitaph has been preserved, the original tombstone engraved is a little unclear, but now it seems to have been redrawn with a red pen, so that people can see clearly.

It reads:

"People will never pay for the atrocities they have done, and death may be the best proof of the wronged......"

The movie ends.

“......”
