Chapter 539: Chapter 544, freedom

Translator: 549690339

“How can such a small tool escape from prison?”

“Isn’t the title Shawshank’s redemption? Andy will definitely be able to find redemption in prison to pay for his sins.”

The discussions of the people around him kept pouring into Bishop Kobler’s ears. At first, he was expecting Andy to escape from prison, but it seemed to have failed.

Just like what the character called Rhett had said, ‘if he wanted to escape from prison with that little thing, it would take him at least a few hundred years.’

“Brand, now is not the time to rest.”

A hoarse voice sounded in Bishop Kobler’s mind again, accompanied by a piercing pain that made bishop Kobler immediately stand up.

“You… are you okay?”

This sudden action scared the person sitting next to Bishop Kobler. Bishop Kobler forced a smile on his face and shook his head, then slowly returned to his seat.

Bishop Kobler held his forehead. The sharp pain in his brain began to gradually increase. The effect of the drug could not last for long.

He took a deep breath and watched Andy in the movie continue to do nothing, as if he had accepted life in this prison.

Bishop Kobler shook his head in self-mockery.

Just like what the previous person had said, since the title of the movie was “Shawshank’s redemption,”then the story must be about finding a way to redeem oneself in prison.

Unfortunately, reality was not so beautiful. The prison in reality could not find a way to redeem oneself.

“Mother, what are those people trying to force Andy to do?”

Bishop Kubler could always capture his daughter’s voice at the first moment.

The scene that appeared in the movie was indeed a scene that many young girls present, even boys, could not understand.

A group of men forced Andy into a corner and grabbed him. Andy struggled crazily, and the man in the lead stuck close to Andy’s back and shouted, “The more you struggle, the more fun it will be.”.

Damn it… who was the one who filmed this! Was it that Devil who did this! !

Bishop Kubler was stunned. He looked around and saw many women covering their faces in shame. He even saw a few men smiling strangely and nodding.

“Mother?”

Bishop Kubler’s daughter was still innocently asking her mother what the men in the movie wanted to do.

Damn it! Damn it!

Bishop Kubler held his hand. If he did not have the mark of a heretic judge on him, he would have jumped out and dragged his daughter away from this place.

However, as a slave of the gray fog, he did not have the right to do so.

“You don’t have to understand this. I think we should leave this place.”

Fortunately, Bishop Kubler’s wife understood something in an instant and was about to leave this filthy place with her daughter.

What made Bishop Kubler even more fortunate was that the devil had not made this movie so filthy. Andy had successfully gotten rid of those men, but he was still pinned to the ground and beaten up by them.

“It’s really like hell. Is this the so-called redemption?”

Bishop Kubler looked at Andy, whose face was covered in scars.

Many years ago, he had tried to resist the gray fog, but as the erosion became more and more serious, without those potions, he would have lived every minute and every second in this world.

Bishop Kubler chose to compromise..

Sooner or later, Andy would also choose to compromise with despair.

When Bishop Kobler saw that the prison was going to send volunteers out to work, he closed his eyes tiredly.

He needed to use this method to calm the voices in his mind, but suddenly someone patted his shoulder. Bishop Kobler instantly opened his eyes and found a man suddenly sitting beside him.

A judge..

“You will be punished for being lazy here,”the man said.

“Gray rope, I have been suspected by people for constantly walking around here. There are close to a thousand people here, and a few bishops. If you can touch everyone once before those guys catch you, I can act immediately.”

Bishop Kobler looked at the man beside him coldly. He did not have a good impression of this judge.

Unlike Bishop Kobler’s pain, his job as a judge was the type that he enjoyed.

“Only you can touch the messenger, the brand… forget it, actually this ‘Devil’s creation’is still a little interesting.”He leaned against the seat unscrupulously and said, “I like to see the prisoners struggling on the verge of death.”

”…”Bishop Kobler fell into silence and did not answer him.

“Andy seems to be going against the prison guards. They are all on the roof. This posture… seems like they are planning to push the prison guards down?”He said.

Bishop Kobler also raised his head at this moment and looked at the screen.

In the movie, Andy was lucky enough to get a chance to go out and work, and the place of work was on the roof.

But at this moment, Andy did not choose to work quietly. Instead, he slowly walked towards the prison guard.

This was the most likely chance for Andy to escape, but Bishop Kubler noticed the smile on the man’s face.

The reason was simple. Even if this was an opportunity, the only outcome that Andy would face was death or some tragic ending.

He could not defeat the prison guard!

The judge beside Bishop Kobler was looking forward to the appearance of a second ‘Fat Prisoner’in the movie.

Don’t do something stupid..

For some reason, this thought appeared in Bishop Kobler’s heart. He did not want Andy to end up like the ‘Beaten Prisoner’.

Bishop Kobler clenched his hands tightly. The noise in his mind seemed to have left him at this moment.

“It’s starting.”The man next to him reminded Bishop Kobler.

The prison guard immediately noticed Andy’s abnormal behavior. He grabbed his collar and questioned him loudly about what he wanted to do.

Andy’s words angered the leader of the prison guard. He grabbed Andy’s collar and tried to push him off the roof.

Bishop Kobler widened his eyes. At the last moment, Andy shouted, “You can get 3500 gold coins.”The leader of the prison guard stopped what he was doing.

3,500 gold coins? What 3,500 gold coins..

Bishop Cobler recalled that Andy was a businessman. The prison guards seemed to be discussing the issue of tax payment.

As a businessman, Andy began to teach the leader of the prison guards the method of tax exemption.

After the angry leader of the prison guards heard Andy’s suggestion, he loosened Andy’s collar and accepted Andy’s suggestion.

Bishop Kobler heaved a sigh of relief when he saw Andy’s collar was loosened.

Bishop Kobler was not the only one. He also heard that many people around him had the same reaction as him.

And all of this was just for the sake of giving each of his friends three bottles of ice-cold ale.

“Unfortunately, avoiding taxes is another trick of a big shot. But what is the purpose of only asking for three bottles of Ale?”

Another judge’s complaint came from the side. It seemed that he was disappointed that Andy was not trampled on by the prison guards.

But Bishop Kobler was not in the mood to listen to him.

Melodious background music echoed in the movie. The prisoners who had finished their work sat on the roof, drinking ice ale and looking at the sunset in the distance.

Andy sat alone in the corner. He did not even take a bottle of ale. He just smiled at his cellmates.

Many people around did not understand why Andy wanted this reward.

But Bishop Kobler understood that what he wanted was ‘freedom’. Although it was only for a moment… at that moment, Andy was an ordinary person. He did not have any shackles or brand on his body.

A power surged in Bishop Kobler’s consciousness. It was the hope that he had long given up on.

At this time, Bishop Kobler understood the difference between him and Andy. They were both prisoners, and Bishop Kobler had given up on the pursuit of freedom, but Andy had never done so.

The latter part of the plot could be said to make Bishop Kobler very happy.

After the prison guards learned about Andy’s ability in business, they all came looking for him to calculate tax-related issues.

In a short time, Andy went from an ordinary prisoner to a tax collector that the prison guards could treat kindly. Even the high and mighty warden began to look for Andy to settle his taxes.

“This feeling of being at the bottom but still having a status is really addictive.”

Gray rope seemed to have replaced himself in the role of ‘Andy,’feeling pleased with his rising status in the prison.

Especially the part where the ‘sisters’who harassed Andy were beaten up by the prison guards until they became disabled, he clapped his hands.

“But brand, no matter how high his position is in the prison, he is still a prisoner,”gray rope suddenly said.

”…”

Bishop Kubler, who had a smile on his face, instantly turned cold.

He recalled the plot of the previous episode, which was that the warden brought the prison guards to inspect the cells.

They violently swept the items in Andy’s cell on the floor, as if to remind Bishop Kobler… no matter how useful a prisoner was, he was still just a useful servant.

“Mother! I remember now, the Scripture that Andy took before is called ‘teachings’. The path of redemption is in the first chapter and the fourth line of the teachings. Andy is indeed a devout believer.”

Bishop Kobler did not miss his daughter’s excited voice. The part of the movie that made the audience feel happy and relaxed seemed to have ended.

It started from when the old prisoner named ‘Bruce’began to threaten another prisoner.

“He was about to be released from prison. Why would he do such a Thing?”

“Has the old man suffered from mental problems after being locked up in prison for too long?”

The two sentences that rang in Bishop Kubler’s ears were not from Grayrope, but from the two ordinary spectators behind him.

At this moment, grayrope, who had been chattering non-stop, suddenly fell silent. He stared at the crazy look of the old man called ‘Bruce’, and fell into a rare silence.

“That old man has gone mad!”

“He’s been here for fifty years! A whole fifty years! This is the only place he knows! Here, he’s an important person, and after he gets out, he’s nothing.”

The scene of Reid arguing with another prisoner in the movie made Bishop Kobler notice the change in gray rope’s expression.

This judge who was chattering non-stop rarely showed such a… Silent expression. At least, Bishop Kobler had never seen it when he was on a mission with him.

After all, this guy had always been proud of being a judge.

“Are these walls very interesting?”Gray rope muttered to himself after listening to Reid’s lines.

In the end, ‘Bruce’still left the prison. Bishop Kobler watched silently as the old man staggered on the streets.

Everything was so unfamiliar to him. Everything on the streets was something he had never seen before.

Outside, he even used the term ‘home’to refer to Shawshank Prison.

Bishop Kobler glanced at gray rope beside him. His gaze was fixed on the scene in front of him. He did not pay any attention to Bishop Kobler at all.

In the movie, ‘Bruce’made a choice, and that was to leave.

‘Bruce’took a knife and carved something on the beam of the house. When the camera turned to the chair under ‘Bruce’”s feet, the scene changed.

Bishop Kobler instantly understood what he meant by leaving.

The old man’s feet were suspended in the air. He used this method to leave this world forever.

When Bishop Kobler saw the words ‘Old Boo came here’written on the beam of the house, he felt a shock… a shock in his heart and spirit.

This feeling could not be described with words. He only wanted to ask how the Devil had filmed such a story!

The surrounding audience also stopped discussing. The only thing that could be seen in the entire audience stand was silence, only silence..

“Boring.”

It was gray rope who softly spat out a sentence, breaking the silence.

“Brand, it seems that you have forgotten your duty.”

At this moment, a hoarse voice suddenly jumped out from Bishop Kobler’s mind. The piercing pain once again filled his brain, causing Bishop Kobler to have no choice but to cover his forehead.

”…”

Bishop Kobler did not answer him.

“Brand!”

The piercing pain traveled through Bishop Kobler’s hands this time, and it was exactly the same pain as when his fingernails were pierced through by spikes.

Bishop Kobler held his hands tightly, and his fingernails were even embedded into his flesh and blood.

This feeling gradually made him lose himself, but suddenly, a melodious song broke into his hearing and smoothed out his pain.

“Hymn? That’s not right…”Bishop Kobler held his forehead and looked at the screen with a dull gaze. The pain in his mind seemed to have left him.

This melodious song came from the movie. In the prison’s notification room, Andy risked being punished and found this record that was donated by someone else and played it.

The rune equipment with a sound amplification effect made this melodious song sound in every corner of Shawshank prison.

Bishop Kobler listened to the song in the movie in a daze. The expression of the prisoner in the movie was almost exactly the same as that of Bishop Kobler.

He did not understand the elvish language, nor did he understand the meaning of the lyrics. However, this song was far more beautiful than the hymn that Bishop Kobler listened to.

At this moment, Bishop Kobler truly felt, sitting in this cinema… watching this film, that he was free.
