所谓的罪与罚,究竟本质为何?是让犯人听到自己的死刑宣判而感到解脱,还是让他重返自由社会,但用尽一生赎罪?上面这句话是东野圭吾在他的一本书——《虚无的十字架》中抛出来的问题。这本书的创作灵感据说是来源于一起震惊整个日本的入室杀人案(即福田孝行杀人案),一名刚满18岁的少年杀害了一对母女,并且进行奸尸的严重罪案。 What is the essence of the so-called crime and punishment? Is it to let prisoners feel liberated when they hear their death sentence, or let them return to a free society, but at one time their lives are atonement? This sentence was written by Higashino Keigo in his book - “the crux of nothingness” thrown out of the question. The inspiration for this book is said to have originated from a martyrdom (Takatsukuda Fukuda murder), which shocked the entire Japanese community. A young 18-year-old boy killed a mother and daughter and committed a serious crime of hacking corpse.
