The appearance of the Old Prison Museum is a medieval gray stone building with three floors. There is a fence of about two and a half meters around, and the fence is wrapped with wires. The museum occupies a large area and contains many cells. As a ground floor where serious criminals are held, the narrow corridors of the rooms and the wide width of the rooms are fully reflected. When the iron door slammed shut behind him, Lu Ning could even feel the suppressed despair here.
Especially since she seemed to be the only visitor today.
As for the order of tour, the tourist guide states that it is best to visit the prison cells, the activity field, the admission examination room, and the prison guard's office in this order.
As a city where crime is legal, this place does not glorify criminals in any way, nor does it belittle the prison guards who died here. They made everyone's corpses into specimens, retaining all the scenes that happened here. Leaving aside the bloody and terrifying appearance, the introduction was quite objective.
All the cells have been opened, and Lu Ning can see every serious criminal serving his sentence here and what they did. Their deaths are recorded and played on a loop, and even the corpses are placed here, with a feeling as if they were alive. The ferocious expression.
Among so many, there is only one exception.
His body was placed under the gallows at the end of the first floor. He was wearing a white robe and a look of compassion. Because his head was shaved, only a slightly golden beard could be seen. It was enclosed by a huge glass cabinet.
【Ricufel·G·Hitophlq
He was called "Father" by the prisoners here.
He became the only awakened person among the prison inmates.
His death triggered the largest and final prison break in the history of the place.
Here he will remain forever in memory of that noble death. 】
The nameplate says so.
Then comes the introduction about this person. He had many professions in his life, including doctor, pastor, writer, and teacher. At the age of forty-four, he became a philanthropist and helped many children and the elderly. These good reputations were completely erased when he was fifty years old due to a mass suicide incident. Risufo and everyone he helped ended his life in various extremely bizarre ways at his birthday party, and in the end he was the only one alive.
People at the time didn't know why he survived, but Risufo said nothing except to declare him guilty and jailed. The strange thing is that no matter how vicious the prisoner is, he will always be respectful to Rissovo, who was already an old man at that time. He is surprisingly popular in prison.
But a year later, twelve prisoners committed suicide at the same time, and he was still the only survivor.
Even with the use of superpowers, people still don't know what's going on. After much debate, the verdict of his execution was finally handed down, and Risoufo did not raise any objection to this.
The death sentence was carried out five days after the verdict was handed down. The sky that day was so clear that there was no cloud. Risofo walked onto the gallows and when the noose was put around his neck, he completed the "awakening" of his abilities.
The record ends here.
There are no video records preserved here. Under the bronze medal recording Su Fo's life, there are hundreds of signatures engraved on it. Lu Ning took out her mobile phone to take pictures of all these signatures, and then walked upstairs.
The higher up, the prisoners with lighter sentences, and the cells are a little more spacious. Following the two iron gates, you can reach the activity area and labor area surrounded by iron fences. There is also no one or any corpses on display here.
Lu Ning sat on a stone bench and rested for a while. Soon after, a staff member came up.
When the other party saw Lu Ning, she just said hello to her, then opened a small utility room, took out a mop and bucket, and began to clean the area.
"Are you responsible for this alone?"
Lu Ning looked at the venue, which was nearly the size of four basketball courts, then looked at the staff member, and asked.
"Yes, I work four hours every afternoon to clean the whole place." The staff member smiled at Lu Ning, "Originally, the prisoners were responsible for the cleaning work here, but now it is a museum."
"But you can also hire more people, right?"
"You should understand that one more person means more salary." The staff lowered their heads and continued to mop the floor. "The living students here will not be willing to volunteer. Only people like us will do it."
"People like you?"
"I have no money, no knowledge, and no skills." The staff member pointed at himself, "Fortunately, my mentality is relatively optimistic. They seem to value this when recruiting people."
"Yeah?"
"Well, I was asked repeatedly if I was an optimistic person. I said that I am still like this and can still say hello to everyone I see on the street every morning. I should be considered very optimistic."
Lu Ning nodded.
"The salary here is good, and I now earn enough money to take adult college courses. Everything is much better than when I first came here... Life will always get better, right?"
"Maybe……"
"Haha, I'm afraid your mentality is not suitable for this job." The staff member smiled and pointed to the door on the other side, "From there you can lead to the prison guard's office. There are more employees there and they know it better. , if you are curious about anything, you can ask them."
Lu Ning thanked him, got up and walked over there. As she walked, she heard the young man humming a cheerful song.
"Do you know this man Risufo?"
"Oh, the Noble Death, there is an exhibition of his corpse on the first floor."
"Do you know whose signatures those are?"
"I don't know... I've been working here for four or five years, and I've never seen anyone sign there, but the number of signatures seems to have increased. I guess they came to sign when I wasn't working."
"Thanks for the answer."
Lu Ning opened the door and walked into the slightly brighter passage. She did not continue to check on the prison guards and walked directly to the library in District 5 after leaving the museum.
It's really strange.
All records are in the form of records, and the dates of birth and death of each person are unknown. There is no chronological mark in the entire museum, which seems to be a tacit understanding that all of these occurred before the city was established.
On the other hand, the members of the Heavenly Kingdom Council don't seem to mind putting some extremely obvious evidence in the open. People who are a little more careful can find many clues, but when you think about it, these side details have a real impact on the entire city. limited.
She came to the library and searched for documents related to the narrative of "Noble Death". As expected, most of them were pictures. Even the text was similar to what was found in the museum. As for reports, there were no reports at all.
When I searched for "Risufo" again, I found a book.
"Death Studies Volume 4 - Rissovo G. Hatofilko"
This book can still be borrowed. Lu Ning immediately used her student ID card to issue a loan certificate, borrowed the book, and then took a taxi home.
On the way home, she received another call from Si Fanle.
"Lu Ning, where did you go this afternoon?"
"District 5, what's the problem?"
"Kashiwagi and Gui found me and Lao Cheng and planned to join forces with us. There was something wrong with him."
"what is the problem?"
"Do you remember Kobayakawa Yuichi?"
"certainly."
"He's missing."
Lu Ning's pupils shrank slightly.
Tourists in the scene will always die, this is inevitable, and everyone is trying their best to make the dead person not themselves. And once people start dying, it means that the previous false peace has torn off its pretense.
"Confirmed death?"
"Not yet. He was temporarily unemployed due to the restaurant explosion, so he happened to be doing a lot of investigation work, but Kashiwagi Kazuki hasn't contacted him for more than a day, which basically means being unable to contact him or even dying."
"Last known location?"
"He is planning to sneak into the periphery of the research institute in Area 1 to observe the security situation around it."
"If it were me, it would be best not to agree to join forces with the other party now." Lu Ning said.
"It's a pity that Lao Cheng has already agreed. He seems to have some leverage. In addition, he seems to be planning to leave in fifteen days. We have completed a lot of tasks, and I have also completed the task of being a serial murderer."
"What? How is it done?"
"Lao Cheng analyzed it for me, and it seems that he has to find a serial killer registered on HELLSPEED to kill him. Or maybe...it doesn't even need to be on the wanted list, but everyone registered on HELLSPEED will count."
"Thanks."
"You're welcome. I hope this helps you. After all, if Old Cheng leaves, I will definitely not stay. I wish you... good luck with your survival."
Si Fanle hung up the phone.
To kill a person on HELLSPEED, if this news is verified to be true, tourists will probably start a fight, right? After all, no one knew who was a registered user before, but almost everyone among the visitors had registered on that account under the mandatory task.
Lu Ning thought about it carefully. There were already many people who knew her identity. It would be really troublesome if there were other tourists who were planning to kill her.
"Nothing important happens on Thursday, Friday...school is out."
The Sabbath fell on the weekend, so the holiday that was supposed to take place that day was moved to Friday. Lu Ning happened to have a lot of things to do on this day. During the day, I need to go to the Queen's Golden Crown Casino, and in the evening I have to go to Cen Mujian's concert with Han Qing.
After that, Lu Ning felt that there was a high probability that she would not be able to maintain the basic performance of going to class every day, so she might as well take this opportunity...
After thinking about it again and again, the car drove back to his door.
Jumonji Yena prepared dinner. Although the lightness of the Japanese style did not suit Lu Ning's taste, she was not particularly picky. After gradually getting used to the other party's irregular outing habits, Lu Ning found that she was quite able to get along with the other party.
After dinner, she went back to the bedroom and started reading the book.
Risufo's life is not very dazzling. As a young man born in a small country in the countryside, he has experienced wars and has been moved between many countries since his childhood. When he was about twelve years old, Risufo was adopted by a kind-hearted grocer who provided him with a basic education around a high school level. At the age of eighteen, Sufo started working as a helper in a grocery store. He completed courses in medicine, education, and theology through self-taught methods. At the age of twenty-two, he made a name for himself by emergency treatment of a nobleman in the town.
Unfortunately, just when Risufo's career was flourishing, war once again spread to the area where he lived. An air raid reduced the entire town to rubble. Risufo escaped the air raid because he went out for medical treatment, but the tragedy he witnessed when he returned to the town completely broke him down for a while. While receiving psychotherapy, he met his first wife, a kind and beautiful nurse.
The marriage lasted for six years. Risofo married the nurse after he was discharged from the hospital. After that, he also worked as a temporary laborer there because he was cared for by the local church. His rich theological knowledge was quickly appreciated by the priest, and his psychological counseling experience gained from a long illness slowly gathered a group of believers. But at the age of twenty-nine, Rissofo learned that the commander who had ordered the destruction of the town had retired, and he immediately left his peaceful life full of revenge. Nineteen days later, the officer was found dead in his hotel room with no apparent injuries.
Although he confessed after that, Risufo's marriage ended. He accepted the priest's proposal and moved to another remote and poor town where no one knew his name or his past. About a year later, Risofo married a local woman and gave birth to three sons and a daughter. But the good times did not last long. A plague swept through the surrounding countries and killed all his family members. It is for this reason that Rissouf developed a method to treat the plague. The Royal Society of Medicine discovered him and recruited him as a foreign doctor at the hospital. In the following years, he became extremely famous for his research on plague. Physicians wrote books, imparted knowledge, and started their own charities.
Until... when he was fifty, the mass suicide incident brought another turning point in his life.
The book takes about two chapters to describe Rissovo's life. This man's life is undoubtedly full of tragedy. Whenever he reaches a peak in his life, he will immediately be hit by a cliff to the lowest point. His life experience was rich, but Lu Ning still couldn't imagine what kind of person he was just based on the description in the book.
She flipped to the research section at the back.
The author also visited many places in order to study Risufo's life. Many things in that disastrous first half of his life have been lost, and after that, Risufo did not have the habit of writing a diary.
But the author of this book still discovered something.
[The author visited the old house where Risufo lived during his period as a philanthropist. It was rebuilt after that incident, and some of Risufo's personal belongings in his later years are also preserved here. After negotiation, the author was able to view his research records when he was in his forties. During this period, all of Rissouf's research was on the containment and treatment of plague. It seems natural, but it is worth mentioning that during this period, there was almost no reference to the theology he once believed in. Research notes exist. According to the author's guess, although Risufo was still a believer on the surface, he had already turned his back on the gods when the plague robbed him of another happiness. 】
