Chapter 193: Self-Redemption

Later, Liang Jiahui began to do things again.

This time he snuck into the room where the radio was playing, and then played a song for the prison inmates.

At the moment when the song sounded, whether it was a prisoner walking in the playground or a prisoner working in a labor camp, they all raised their heads with him and looked at the place where the song came from.

Although many people can't appreciate this song, although many people don't even hear what the lyrics are, and some people even think it's not good, they still look at the sky in a daze, and hope flashes in their eyes.

As Liang Chaowei said: "I have never understood what they sing, in fact, I don't want to understand either, at this time, no words are better than words." They... sings an indescribable beauty, and the beauty is heartbreaking. The song soars into the clouds, surpassing the dreams of amnesiac prisoners, like a bird flying into the cell, making the walls disappear without a trace. At this moment, all the prisoners felt free. ”

Liang Jiahui leisurely put his hands behind his head, closed his eyes and enjoyed the beauty of music, even after he was later arrested and confined to confinement, he did not show a trace of sadness.

When he came out, he touched his chest and said to his fellow inmates, "Although they have taken everything from me, they cannot take away what is in my heart." ”

Yes, it's like locking up the master, but not the heart.

......

Later, Liang Jiahui continued to do things as always, writing letters to the government every week, writing for an unknown number of years, and finally drove the government crazy, from the city government, to get financial support, as well as old book support, and finally succeeded in establishing a large library in the prison for all inmates to read.

After the incident was exposed, many media outlets interviewed the prison warden. The warden unceremoniously took the credit for himself, and said that he would take the prisoners to do more "meaningful" things in the future.

After all, these prisoners are free labor.

What manpower, materials, there are loopholes everywhere, and oil can be rubbed everywhere. And behind every black money, there is Liang Jiahui, and it is all his account.

He and Liang Chaowei revealed that after the prison warden retires, he will be a millionaire!

This was an unimaginable astronomical amount in the 60s.

The audience couldn't help but feel stunned, this is so special, it's too good, isn't it? A small prison is so corrupt!

The key is that Liang Jiahui also made up an identity, and he was not afraid of being found out at all.

This has further encouraged the warden's corrupt heart to grow.

This went on for many years, until 66: the 19th year after Liang Jiahui was imprisoned!

At this moment, Liang Chaowei has gray hair on his sideburns, and when he reads, he still has reading glasses on the bridge of his nose. After he set up the library, he helped many of his fellow inmates obtain diplomas over the years.

This year, many new prisoners came to the prison, one of whom was named Li Mi, a thief who liked to tell jokes, and soon became one with the prisoners.

He went to Liang Jiahui to learn from him and started learning from the spelling of the alphabet. Liang Jiahui is willing to teach him not only because of Li Mi's likable personality, but also because of the necessity of prison life.

Life in prison is too slow, and the inmates have their own way of passing the time. Some people collect stamps, some people build match houses, Leung Ka Fai used to carve stones, then build a library, and now, he has a new plan, which is to help Li Mi get a diploma.

In prison, you have to find something to do if you have nothing to do, otherwise you will be worse off than dead if you waste your time...

But unexpectedly, Liang Jiahui's unintentional move to pass the time brought him an unexpected surprise.

The young man, Li Mi, had been in other prisons for stealing a car. In that prison, he met a fellow inmate who said he had lurked at a golf club and targeted the rich. In one mistake, he killed the manager of the golf club and his mistress.

The prisoner also boasted to Li Mi, saying that the mistress's husband, the big banker, had also taken the blame for himself.

Wow!

At this moment, all the audience was in an uproar, although everyone had expected that he did not look like a murderer through Liang Jiahui's usual performance, but they didn't expect the truth of the matter to be so weird and full of drama.

Liang Jiahui was really wronged and took the black pot for others.

In the past 20 years in prison, I really sat in vain, and I was tortured by perverts in the early years...

Later, Liang Jiahui, who found the truth, came to Chen Daoming's office and told him that he was wronged, hoping that he could help him overturn the case.

But this was ruthlessly rejected by Chen Daoming, and said that Li Mi's words were a lie.

seems to feel that this is not enough, Chen Daoming simply did not do anything, and directly killed Li Mi.

After Li Mi's death, Chen Daoming breathed a sigh of relief, and now the whole world was clean. Ya, just launder the money for Lao Tzu, do you have to overturn the case? And you little shrimp, just stay honest, you have to tell Liang Jiahui the truth of the matter?

Why bother, he buried his own life.

Seeing this incomparably dark scene, the audience's hearts instantly cooled.

Reality, is it really that dark?

Some viewers couldn't stand it and began to scold:

"Damn, it's too dark, isn't it? In order to prevent Liang Jiahui from overturning the case, he directly killed the innocent witness?"

"It's so vicious!"

"I knew this guy wasn't a good thing!"

The prison director was also afraid that after Liang Jiahui was released from prison, he would tell him about his money laundering. ”

"Hehe, I bet that the year the prison warden retired was the year when Liang Jiahui lost his use value, that is, the year he died. With the prison warden's consistent urine nature, it is absolutely impossible to leave Liang Jiahui as a potential safety hazard. ”

......

As soon as the camera turned, Li Mi, the little dragon who revealed the shocking secret, became the second prisoner to be killed in the movie.

Compared with Li Mi, Liang Jiahui's experience is even more chilling. He was really wronged, twenty years in prison, I really don't know how he survived.

Some viewers thought that it was better for this Li Mi not to appear, and it was better not to tell Liang Jiahui the truth of the matter.

Give him a little hope, and then the reality sends more despair, and sometimes it is a good thing to not know.

Some viewers suddenly thought of what Liang Chaowei once said to Liang Jiahui: "Friend, let me tell you, there is hope before it is dangerous, hope can drive people crazy, hope is useless, you better not have hope." ”

That was what Liang Chaowei said to Liang Jiahui after Liang Jiahui made a song storm. At that time, after saying this, he went to apply for bail after 30 years in prison, but the result was still denied. At that point in time, it has been nine years now.

In Liang Chaowei's eyes, in a desperate place like a prison, you should never have any hope for it, just get by, because the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment, and in the end, there is no hope...

This is the conclusion that Liang Chaowei has come to after years in prison, just like every time he hopes to apply for parole, but in exchange for rejection. Over time, Liang Chaowei no longer had any hope...

It's a very negative idea, but in prison, it's the most applicable, especially for inmates who are imprisoned for life.

Liang Chaowei was very negative, he felt that he had been completely numb, and there was no cure.

But Liang Jiahui is not.

Just like before he parted, he told Liang Chaowei that he was going to Sanya, Hainan to spend the rest of his life, because it was close to the sea...

Liang Jiahui wants to go to this place where he once had unbearable memories and spend the rest of his life.

But Liang Chaowei obviously doesn't understand this idea, it's a long way from Sanya, not a few steps, and you don't have wings, how can you go?

Then Liang Jiahui told Liang Chaowei: "That's right, although it is far away at the ends of the world, people always have to make a choice, busy living, or busy dying!"

These words made Liang Chaowei stunned, and also hit the hearts of many audiences.

Busy working, holding on to hope, living a more meaningful life.

Busy dying? disheartened, not concerned about anything, feeling that life is meaningless, it is better to die.

Liang Chaowei wandered on both sides, he once didn't have any hope, but after being in contact with Liang Jiahui for a long time, his attitude was slowly changing....

Before parting, Liang Jiahui asked Liang Chaowei to go under the big locust tree after being released from prison on parole, where was there anything left for him.

Then, Liang Jiahui disappeared from everyone's sight one night.

It wasn't until Chen Daoming accidentally discovered the big hole behind the poster on the wall that he realized that Liang Jiahui had escaped from prison.

The audience was also stunned for a moment, it turned out that Liang Jiahui bought a hammer to dig out a passage, and bought a poster just to cover up the hole, this guy must have watched the American drama Prison Break, right?

On the screen, the climax of the whole film!

On this night of lightning and thunder, Liang Jiahui lifted the poster, climbed into the hole, then climbed outside the house, and then crawled down the sewer pipe to the outside of the prison, crawling towards freedom.

That's almost five basketball courts!

But Liang Jiahui endured the stench and crawled outside little by little, compared to the long years of the prison, what is this... In this way, I climbed all the way to the river outside the prison.

Facing the stormy night, he opened his arms and raised his head high, as if embracing the pouring rain and the freedom that had been lost for twenty years.

A relieved laugh came from Liang Jiahui's mouth, which was a mockery of fate and a satire of the prison system!

You can lock up my body, but you can never lock my heart that yearns for freedom!

At this moment, all the audience were boiling, watching the scene of Liang Jiahui hugging the heavy rain, watching the water stains slide down his face, I don't know how many people also want to learn from him immediately and embrace the freedom outside the fence with him.

.......

As soon as the camera turned, Liang Jiahui appeared in a suit and leather shoes in major banks, pretending to be the entity with no physical identity, and ran away with the prison warden's money. When he left, he did not forget to report the crime of corruption of the prison warden.

When the police came to arrest him that day, the old guy chose to kill himself, and shot himself through the jaw in the whole head.

Later, Liang Chaowei received a postcard from Liang Jiahui, although he did not write his name, he knew that it was sent by Liang Jiahui. Because he remembered that the place on the postcard was the ocean of no memories that Liang Jiahui was going to.

Facing this old friend, Liang Chaowei not only missed, but also praised: "Some birds should not be kept in cages, and every feather of them shines with the brilliance of freedom." ”

Soon after, Leung was sentenced to 40 years in prison and applied for parole.

This time, perhaps because he is old, he has no use value, and he can't cause harm to society. Or maybe it's because of his indifferent attitude that he caught the attention of the auditors.

Because he knows that he is used to everything in prison, and it may not end well if he goes out.

So this time, his parole application was approved.

He lives alone in a big room, goes to the supermarket as a packer, can't pee without reporting, and can't sleep without the atmosphere of prison constraints.

He has prison syndrome, is out of step with the new world, and can't fit into the new life...

It wasn't until he remembered what Liang Jiahui had left him that he didn't hang himself like the first person on parole.

.......

In the last scene of the movie, Liang Chaowei digs out a gift under the locust tree, which is the money and a letter left by Liang Jiahui.

The most memorable sentence in the letter was the one sentence: "Remember, Red, it's a good thing to have hope, maybe the best thing to do." If you have hope, you will always have hope, and as long as you have a breath, you will never give up!"

At this moment, Liang Chaowei was silent for a long time.

He once told Liang Jiahui that hope is dangerous, it will drive a person crazy, and it will bring more disappointments and even death.

But now, he faltered.

Do you choose to redeem yourself, or do you choose to continue to sink?

The audience also watched this scene nervously, is it self-redemption, or is it going to sink to death like this?

In the end, Liang Chaowei chose to go to Liang Jiahui.

He chose salvation!

As soon as the camera turned, the words came to a seaside, Liang Jiahui was wiping the hull of the boat, and Liang Chaowei walked over barefoot and stepping on the sand.

The two saw each other from a distance, then looked at each other and smiled, and walked over.

The camera keeps zooming up until the two people hug each other, becoming a small black spot on the beach, but like a ray of hope...

At this point, the movie also ends......
