Bringing Culture to a Different World

Chapter 540: Chapter 545, escape

When the melodious Elvish song stopped, Andy got the punishment he deserved for his mistake. The warden locked him in a solitary cell without any light for two whole weeks.

“This punishment is too light.”Gray rope looked at Andy, who was sitting at the dining table with a haggard face, then, he looked at Bishop Kobler next to him. “If we made such a mistake, the punishment would be much more terrible than this.”

Gray rope used this method to remind Bishop Kobler that it was time to complete his task.

Bishop Kobler stared at the movie screen without saying a word. The man named ‘Red’also began to warn Andy righteously.

‘hope is a dangerous thing. Hope will drive people crazy. It has no effect here. You’d better get used to this idea.’

This sentence echoed in Bishop Kobler’s ears. He stood up weakly from his seat.

This movie indeed gave him a feeling of freedom in an instant. He even wanted to resist the impulse of the heretic court.

But when Bishop Kobler came back to his senses, the cruel reality was still there.

It was exactly the same as what happened to Andy. No matter how talented the young businessman was, he helped build a new library in the prison and gained the appreciation of the warden, he was still a lowly prisoner and had no ability to resist.

Bishop Kubler turned around and carefully glanced at his wife and daughter who were sitting in the second last row. They were immersed in the plot of the movie and did not notice his gaze.

“Mother, what is Andy doing to help the warden launder money… is this allowed by the gods?”

“This is a despicable act, it will never be accepted by the gods.”

“But mother, didn’t you say that the warden was a devout believer?”

”…”

No one could answer this question, not even Bishop Kobler.

All he could hear was gray rope’s mocking laughter.

“Using a loophole in the city’s laws to create a non-existent person to save money, Andy is indeed a very useful slave to the warden,”gray rope whispered.

Bishop Kobler ignored him and once again immersed himself in his work. He walked past the row he was sitting in.

However, during the process of touching, Bishop Kobler’s gaze was still fixed on the screen of the movie.

“Sir, what’s the matter?”

When Bishop Kobler gently patted the last person in the row, he noticed the action of Bishop Kobler patting his shoulder and turned around to ask him impatiently.

“I’m sorry, my eyes aren’t very good. Can I switch seats with you?”

Bishop Kobler randomly gave a reason, but only received a rejection from the other party.

This allowed Bishop Kobler to escape and walk directly to the next row. The surrounding audience also noticed that Bishop Kobler was blocking their line of sight.

Before causing a commotion, bishop kobler could only sit back next to gray rope.

“I suggest that you get rid of all the people in the theater who are in the way. In the chaos, it will be easier for us to act,”gray rope said softly.

”…”

Bishop Kobler remained silent. At this time, the plot of the movie ushered in a new development.

Shawshank’s prison welcomed a young prisoner, and this prisoner actually knew the inside story of Andy’s murder of his wife.

When he sat in the library and confessed the information he knew to Andy, the camera turned to the real criminal. He monolored in front of the audience with a crazy expression.

“Andy is innocent? How can that be? He has been imprisoned for so many years.”

“There should be someone who will help Andy retry the case… so that he can be released.”

The people of the holy city had completely sided with Andy during the movie. Many of them were glad that Andy could be released.

“The warden will not let him off easily,”gray rope whispered in Bishop Kobler’s ear again.

But this time, the nun sitting next to him heard his whisper.

“Andy has helped the warden so much.”The young nun did not seem to agree with gray rope’s idea.

Gray rope did not expect that someone would dare to answer him, but gray rope did not answer the nun. The Warden’s Angry Roar replaced Gray Rope’s answer on the screen.

“Never mention black money to me! You Bastard!”

This sudden roar even shocked many of the audience. The entire hall fell silent once again.

Bishop Kobler glanced at the girl sitting next to Grayrope. She did not seem to have realized why the warden would do this.

However, things took a turn for the better. In the middle of the night, the warden invited the young prisoner who knew the secret out and asked if what he said was true.

“Warden, do you still intend to help Andy…”the nun’s excited voice had not yet ended when a gunshot stopped her words.

Along with the gunshot, the audience in the hall also stopped talking.

“Only dead people won’t snitch.”Gray rope looked at the prisoner who was lying in a pool of blood and patted Bishop Kobler’s shoulder.

Bishop Kobler glanced at the nun sitting next to gray rope. She looked at the corpse on the screen and covered her mouth in disbelief. Her eyes were wide open.

Reality was already so difficult. Was it so cruel even in a fictional story?

Bishop Kobler had already begun to consider gray rope’s proposal, which was to first kill the citizen and cause chaos, and then find the person he was looking for in the chaos.

The warden’s actions in the movie had thoroughly angered Bishop Kubler.

There was no suspense at this part of the plot. His gaze swept around and began to search for the target to attack.

In the end, the conversation between Andy and Rhett sitting by the city wall was the last part that Bishop Kubler patiently watched.

‘either you’re busy living, or you’re busy dying!’

When Andy said this line, he looked at his good friend Rhett with a conflicted expression and asked Rhett to do him a favor if he could get out.

“As expected of the creation of the Devil?”Gray rope slowly clapped. He was the only one who was clapping. “This kind of performance where people who are filled with hope slowly despair is really very interesting.”

“Andy is going to commit suicide?”

“This… seems to be the only way for that man to escape.”

Most of the female audience could not help but cover their eyes when they saw this. Some nuns even began to pray for the virtual movie character.

In this story that lasted more than an hour, the businessman relied on his personal charm to make many audience members view him as a noble person instead of a lowly prisoner.

Unfortunately, Bishop Kobler knew that the producer of this movie was a demon!

It was normal for demons to use this story to mock the Holy Land.

Andy asked his cellmate for a bundle of ropes. When he returned to the prison, the light was so dim that only his dull expression and the thick rope in his hand could be seen.

Bishop Kobler did not want to see the end of the story anymore.

This feeling of despair spread throughout the hall, and Bishop Kobler’s forehead began to hurt again.

“Damn it, has the effect worn off?”Gray rope could not keep calm and stood up from his seat, he took out his pocket watch and looked at the time. “More than an hour has passed? It’s not just half an hour… it’s not the time to dwell on this. Brand! Do It!”

“I… Know…”

Bishop Kubler held his forehead. The surrounding audience had already realized the abnormality here. Bishop Kubler suddenly rushed towards an old man in front of him.

However, a barrier made of magic suddenly appeared in front of the old man. When Bishop Kubler attacked him, the barrier was completely deflected by the magic power.

Gray Rope’s hand overflowed with gray magic power and shattered the barrier that was formed around the bishop.

“Have those old men found out? We’ve wasted too much time, but it doesn’t matter… brand!”Gray rope turned around and looked at the audience seats behind him. The creator of the magic barrier was a bishop.

Gray rope wanted Bishop Kubler to make a move again, but he was staring at the screen.

“What brand are you doing!”Gray rope turned back to look at the screen. He saw the warden standing in the empty cell with a surprised look on his face.

Andy did not commit suicide. He disappeared into thin air.

The warden questioned the prison guards loudly about what had happened.

“How is it possible…”gray rope was slightly stunned, but the next second, the screen turned dark.
