Chapter 59, "Killing Life," contains a potential spoiler? (2/2)



—Evil spirits roam the earth, and Heaven is blind.

Tiger couldn't help but get angry when he thought about how Zhu Laosan still managed to escape into the deep mountains and disappear without a trace.

That's it? Is that all? Is it really impossible to catch him?

Twenty years later, it remains an ironic tragedy that strikes right at the heart of the victims' families, leaving them not only angry but also with a touch of regret.

As the screen gradually dimmed and the credits slowly rolled out with the music, Tiger rubbed his sore eyes and took a deep breath.

Just as he was about to take out his phone to record his thoughts after watching the film, the screen in front of him lit up again—

Twenty years later...

Tiger opened his eyes wide and quickly sat up straight.

Wow, is the production team really that brave? They actually dared to rewrite the final ending?

"A body was found in the basement of a bar in Shanghai's Haibin District early yesterday morning..."

A figure with slightly graying hair but still upright posture appeared in the narrow corridor along with the sound of a news broadcast.

Tiger recognized the figure as the task force leader played by Zhuo Jianhua, though more than twenty years had passed and he had gone from a strong middle-aged man to an old man.

"It is understood that the deceased was named Zhu Deshan, 45 years old, from Lu City, C Province. According to police investigation, he was one of the fugitives who committed the 'Rongtou Slaughterhouse Family Annihilation Case' 27 years ago..."

"Is it confirmed?" The team leader asked, pulling the person next to him, his voice trembling slightly.

Twenty-seven years have passed! Every time he thinks about this case, he can't sleep at night and constantly regrets his caution at the time, for not arresting the three Zhu brothers sooner, which led to the disappearance of the third Zhu brother. The case has thus become a regret in the hearts of many people.

Upon hearing the whereabouts of Zhu Laosan, the team leader was extremely excited.

"Teacher, please calm down." The police officer next to him quickly supported the team leader's arm.

"I'm fine, I'm fine—"

The team leader waved his hand, his steps steady and swift. He walked into the room and lifted the white sheet.

Sure enough, it was him.

The team leader took a deep breath and turned to the forensic doctor: "How has he been doing all these years?"

The forensic doctor said, "He was in very poor condition. He must have been doing manual labor all his life, eating irregularly. He was physically strong on the outside but weak on the inside. There were obvious abrasions and calluses on his shoulders, fingers, and other areas. The condition of his organs was also extremely poor. I also found a tumor in his stomach."

He paused, then continued, "It's malignant."

The team leader listened to the forensic doctor's words in silence, remaining silent for a long time.

Finally, the screen slowly dimmed, leaving only his weathered and heavy voice—

"That beast deserved to die!"

—Killing life!

The screen was filled with large, blood-red characters. The lights around the theater came on, and the sudden brightness woke people who were immersed in the story. As if waking from a dream, everyone blinked and began to whisper among themselves.

Only Tiger sat in his chair, his expression complicated.

Originally, before this post-credits scene, Tiger gave the movie an 8.7 out of 10.

With its suspenseful plot, intricately linked case details, smooth camera transitions, and outstanding performances from the actors, Tiger Brother cannot guarantee this film will be a box office hit due to its subject matter, but he can assure you that it will be one of the best crime films released in recent years!

But……

The director insisted on adding a superfluous ending by forcibly introducing a death scene for "Zhu Laosan," leaving the audience completely confused. This action can be said to have directly triggered Tiger's sensitive topic.

Director, come here, I have a question for you. Did you do this sudden dog poop? Look in my eyes!
