The Tale of a Death Row Inmate

About this story

There were still two hours until the execution, so I entered the cell and provided psychological counseling to the death row inmate. The inmate said, “I’m about to be shot, and everything will be over. This ending is truly meaningless. Should I struggle a little longer? Who knows, maybe I can change this ending?” “Shall I tell you a story, Dr. Luc?” His inexplicable smile made me shudder. Only two hours left—does he still want to overturn the case?
