Ashgard: Ambition and Purpose
Solved Case (END) #254

The night before the execution came. Garwig returns to visit the Federal, and confirms the circumstances of Tokyo suspect El Claunius. The dangerous man had nothing changed, not even anything different from his usual expression. After confirming the prisoner who will get the death penalty. Garwig went to a place that would later be a witness to the execution.

A large place like a field, but in the room. In the field there is already a wall that later on the wall the suspect will stand and prepare to receive execution shots. Located quite far from the wall, there is a barrier that cannot be passed, and from behind the barrier there will be several shooters sent to execute shots.

While reviewing the execution ground, a man dressed in tactical clothes named Prime came to him and gave a report on the execution to be carried out tomorrow. Some of the reports also contain the selection of personnel who are ready to carry out executions towards death row inmates. The firing squad was not given any clarity regarding any of their names, as their identities were completely kept secret by the authorities.

Mental, of course, the psychological condition that will be faced by the firing squad, not only suspects who will get a mental attack or mental disorder when the execution time is soon done. Executing someone, of course, is life, is an action that has been ascertained to take someone's life. This will show blood and cruelty. The heart and psychic condition of a person who executes or even just sees can be disturbed.

Garwig receives all the reports of the executions that will be carried out tomorrow, and then takes a trip from the execution ground along with Prime to meet each of the personnel who will join the firing squad. He wanted to make sure of some of those people.

"The rifle to be used there are about ten rifles, some of which are empty, but some of which are filled with live bullets that will be fired directly into the heart of the convict. The personnel in the firing squad were not told whether the rifles they used were empty or loaded." Prime had given clarity about the execution to be carried out tomorrow to Garwig, while walking through the empty and deserted Federal main square with Garwig.

Garwig understood this, and he also knew every ordinance even to the point that there were several methods of death penalty other than by shooting death row inmates.

The atmosphere of the night was cold, silent, quiet, with the wind blowing gently. There were no stars or moons in the sky tonight, it was completely dark and dark. The sounds of crickets or other nocturnal animals are also not heard tonight, completely silent.

Slowly time went on, and the morning sun began to be seen. At exactly five in the morning, Tokyo convict El Claunius was immediately escorted, taken to a cafeteria to be given the opportunity to enjoy his last breakfast. The cafeteria this morning was very quiet, there were no other prisoners besides Tokyo El Claunius, as well as a few bodyguards guarding him so tightly.

The man ate leisurely and calmly, as if nothing would happen. A truly unexpected expression, even though he knew he would face death, the man had a flat expression as if nothing would happen. Of course, this is not so surprising to the tactical apparatus who was guarding Tokyo El Claunius while enjoying his last breakfast.

Some other prisoners who were also death row in the past also did the same thing, no expression at all as if they were ready to accept the death. And now it's happening again in Tokyo's El Claunius, which is just flat expression.

Time continued to pass, the clock showed six o'clock in the morning exactly. Tokyo El Claunius' breakfast time had run out, and he was immediately taken to the execution ground without having to spend any more time. Some tactical officers look so guarded, into a building, and in the building there is a very large field that is indeed a place of execution.

The shooters were ready, with rifles in their hands. Personnel on the firing squad involved some from the military, and some from law enforcement officers. No one knew, and no one was told whether the rifle they were using was loaded with bullets or not. They just run errands.

Everything is ready, the convict is also standing in the position he should, while the firing squad is also in his position. Prawira was in that place because he was given the mandate to be the command of this execution. The man in the uniform stood behind the shooters and checked the time on his watch.

"Prepare!" he said aloud, when the execution time has begun close to the schedule that has been determined.

Seconds passed, until a few minutes passed. Thumped? Of course that is felt by everyone involved in this execution, let alone the personnel from the firing squad. They do not know which of them will take the life of the convict, and they only carry out their duty with their ignorance of the rifle they are wearing.

Prawira sighed, lowered her left arm, finished looking at the watch. He looked at the man named Tokyo El Claunius with a concerned look. One of his right hands is slightly raised as a sign that if he lowers it then the command will come out and a shot will be fired.

Time continued to pass, and showed that it was on the execution schedule that must be done immediately. Prawira immediately made up her mind, slowly lowering her right hand while giving the command, "do it! Shoot it!" he said, loud and firm.

DOR ...!!!

One shot was shot simultaneously, and targeted the convict's left chest. The body of Tokyo El Claunius immediately drooped, fell, and did not live for a moment with a condition drenched in blood. Prawira himself was not strong to witness this, even when the shot sounded he chose to close his eyes.

Psychic attacks seemed to be felt by him, and also obtained some personnel from the firing squad. They were immediately secured, kept away from any firearms or sharp, and immediately taken by the medical team to the medical room for mental and psychological examination. Some medical officials who were also present there immediately rushed to clean up the body of Tokyo El Claunius.

Prawira immediately left the room, and met Garwig in the main Federal square, reporting that the execution had been carried out successfully. Garwig nodded in understanding, especially he could see the body of Tokyo El Claunius that had been evacuated out using a body bag.

"Good work, everybody. We hereby declare the case resolved."
