Monster Volume 7 : Richard Chapter the Fifty-Sixth Execution - Page 117 - Gillen: This boy here... Chapter 56 : Execution Gillen: Don't you recognize him, Jurgens? Haven't you met him somewhere before? - Page 118 - Jurgens: Don't know him... Gillen: I see... So your "friend" Johan only sent you letters, and never met you face-to-face. But Johan knew you very well... Jurgens: Will you let me borrow a pen...? Gillen: Huh...? I'm sorry, but I am forbidden to hand you any objects. - Page 119 - Jurgens: A pen... (scribble) (shaka shaka) - Page 120 - Jurgens: The park... Gillen: Huh? Jurgens: The park... The day after I killed her... Let's stop... let this be the end of it... That's what I thought, going in to the park... He brought a lot of kids... Gillen: Wait a minute!! I forgot to flip over the tape! Start that over again... (kacha) Jurgens: "You come too"... Gillen: What? - Page 121 - Jurgens: "You come too." "You come too." "You come too." "You come"... - Page 122 - Chapter 56 : Execution - Page 123 - Richard: Wha... What do you want?! Johan: We met at Mr. Schuwald's residence. I am Johan Liebert. - Page 124 - Johan: I called your house several times, but never got an answer... So I came to your door. Reichwein: Hello, Dr. Gillen?! How did it go when you showed Jurgens the pho... Dead...? Gillen: Yes! I'm here at the hospital... - Page 125 - Gillen: I can't do anything at the moment because of the police questioning. I foolishly gave him a ballpoint pen, and this happened... he was an important reference... But, Professor Reichwein... His suicide was clearly... a reaction to the photograph of Johan! As soon as the questioning is over, I will rush to your house immediately... Reichwein: I understand! I'll call Richard. (click) (bip)(bip) Richard... (rrrrring)(rrrrring) - Page 126 - Richard: College report...? Johan: Yes... I'm doing research on the 1989 international agreement for the "Treaty of Childrens Rights"... And comparing the ideal of the protected rights of all children to the handling of certain juvenile criminals. Would you like a drink, Mr. Richard? Richard: I'll be fine! - Page 127 - Johan: You've... quit drinking, haven't you? That's right. Because you executed that young man while you were drunk. Am I right? Richard: Y... yes. I've done something more unforgivable than mere alcohol could cause. Johan: What I want to ask you is something regarding that case... That boy you shot... Stefan Jost... age 17. What was his crime? Richard: Boy...? That 17-year old BOY committed the crimes of a demon. 9 cases of rape and murder, and two further attempted murders... - Page 128 - Johan: And that's why you executed him? Richard: It was no execution!! Johan: Oh... sorry. By the way, did you know that under the "Treaty of Childrens Rights", section 40, they are to be innocent until proven guilty of a crime? Richard: Yes, I know that. I was a child once, too... Johan: I see. Then, section 37... That anyone under age 18 must not be given the death sentence or life imprisonment without possibility of parole? Richard: The majority of those points are rights given to any person in this country, whether adult or child!! - Page 129 - Richard: When I killed him, it was not an execution! It was a drunken mistake. I know that I did something which can never be erased... and I've felt the social stigma for it... Johan: Now now, please wait. I wanted to meet you to do research for my college thesis. I just want to study this problem from every angle possible. If I put you in a bad mood, I apologize. Why don't we go on a little walk for some fresh air? I'll take this bottle of whiskey. It's going to get colder tonight. - Page 130 - Reichwein: Ah, Dr. Gillen!! I still can't get hold of Richard. He was saying he might see his daughter, but it couldn't be at this time of night... Gillen: Well, once you find what he's doing, let me know at once!! I'll come over to see you now!! Johan: Are you familiar... with Stefan Jost's personal history? Richard: Yes, he was in some East German orphanage at a young age... - Page 131 - Johan: I think you ought to know more. It's an extremely important point to keep in mind when talking about him. The orphanage... Was a terrible place... He was a good kid. But the horrible treatment he was given at that orphanage... The way his mind must have been twisted while he was there... The "Treaty of Childrens Rights", section six... the right to exist, and to develop... Section eight, the preservation of identity. Section 19, protection from oppression... - Page 132 - Johan: There's no use in mentioning those things about that place. It was like a nightmare. At the place called Kinderheim 511... (tmp)(tmp) Are you going to see your daughter? Richard: Wha... why... how do you know that?! Johan: Was it your daughter who called you at home? - Page 133 - Johan: Will you be able to see her tomorrow? (tmp)(tmp)(tmp) Richard: What is it...?! What do you want...? Johan: To write my college report. - Page 134 - Richard: Not that!! Your purpose for being with Schuwald!! Johan: (tmp)(tmp) Richard: You... Who... Who are you...? Johan: (tmp)(tmp) (batan) - Page 135 - Johan: You said you shot that boy when you were drunk. Richard: Answer my question first!! Johan: True, you were seen at a bar later that day, after you shot him... But, something's not right. According to my research, not one person ever saw you drinking BEFORE you shot him. You weren't drunk at all when you shot him, were you? - Page 136 - Richard: Wha... Johan: You were sober... And calm. You wanted to execute him, and you calmly pulled the trigger. Am I wrong? Richard: YES, YOU ARE!! - Page 137 - Johan: Why are you trying to forget? Or are you lying? Are you lying to others? Or just to yourself? Did you confirm that boy's crime? Did you have the right to execute him? Do you think that by lying, your crime will disappear? - Page 138 - Johan: What a heavy crime. Can a man bearing such a heavy crime meet his daughter and say he has turned his life around? - Page 139 - Johan: Well, would you like a drink? Reichwein: Gillen?! (tmp)(tmp) Is that Dr. Gillen?! - Page 140 - Agent: Police. Your patient, Richard Brown... Has died... - Chapter 56 Owari -
