Bab 45: Electric chair

Dr. Colin Hall couldn't believe that there were only two more days left before the officials would come to see his patient, Sylvester Crowley die. Not through mercy killing, but with torture. 

"Dr. Hall?" Sylvester called for his attention as the alienist had spaced out during the session. "You seem disturbed today. Are you feeling unwell?" he asked in concern. 

"Forgive me, Sylvester," Dr. Hall apologised before offering a smile, "No, I am fine. It is just, work has been a little too much and has occupied my mind."

"If you want, we can take a break and continue some other time," Sylvester stated, and after a pause, he added, "The others agree with me too. Agnes says it is the first time you have spaced out like this and may need a break."
