Chapter 222 Dead End
One week later.
The autumn wind blows and the sun goes out.
The temperature seemed to get colder overnight.
Luo Rui parked the car on the side of the road and showed his ID to the policeman at the booth.
After entering the reception hall of the detention center, he saw Jiang Gang.
Jiang Crocodile and his partner seemed to have not slept all night. They were listless and their blue shirts became wrinkled.
They were leaning against the backs of their chairs, squinting their eyes, with shabby briefcases at their feet.
Luo Rui walked in front of him. Jiang Gang opened his eyes alertly, looked at him, and sighed: "What? I can't help but come to see?"
Luo Rui didn't say anything, but showed his ID to the policeman behind the counter again and said, "See Lan Hanwen!"
The policeman nodded and asked him to register his ID number and phone number, as well as the reason for the visit.
After completing the formalities, Luo Rui walked over and sat next to Jiang Gang.
"What are you planning?"
Jiang Gang said: "What can we plan? Of course we will prosecute Lan Hanwen for murder, but..."
"But what? ?”
"But I don't know how the court will rule. In this case, it will be difficult to unify the three effects."
Luo Rui frowned. Seeing that he was a little confused, Jiang Gang sat up straight. Body, hold up three fingers.
"Legal* effect, political* effect, social* effect!"
"If these three conflict, guess which effect ranks first? Which effect Ranked second?”
Jiang Gang shook his head with a wry smile. : "Lan Hanwen studied law. He knows very well how to deal with the procuratorate and the court! Not only does he want to make things bigger, but he also suffers from mental illness. This is a very good detonating effect, and public opinion changes overnight. Can be brought up!”
Jiang Gang still wanted to complain, but at this time, a group of people walked out of it.
Wearing suits, they stood at the checkpoint, and the police on duty were returning their mobile phones, keys and other items to them.
Jiang Gang immediately whispered: "This is Zhou Changqing, and the lawyer he brought."
Luo Rui raised his eyes and looked carefully.
Zhou Changqing has gray hair and is wearing a black jacket. His hair is a little gray and he wears glasses on his face. He looks very elegant.
At a glance, this person's personality and appearance are somewhat similar to Lan Hanwen.
Jiang Gang said in Luo Rui's ear: "Does Lan Hanwen look like him? It's not without reason that Zhou Changqing's daughter likes this guy!"
Behind Zhou Changqing, stood There was a woman in a white suit, aged in her mid-twenties, with her hair tied into a ponytail, looking very capable.
Jiang Gang said: "This is Zhou Changqing's daughter, Zhou Xia."
After the group came out, Jiang Gang and his companions stood up, and Luo Rui had no choice but to stand up too.
Zhou Changqing smiled and shook hands with Jiang Gang.
"Jiang Gang."
"Hello, Teacher Zhou!" Jiang Gang lowered his head slightly, the smile on his face was completely different from before, and Luo Rui frowned.
Zhou Changqing looked at Luo Rui next to him: "Who is this?"
Jiang Gang introduced: "Luo Rui, the squadron leader of our Shahe County Bureau."
Zhou Changqing did not reach out, and Luo Rui was expressionless, but looked directly at him.
“Oh, you are young and promising!” Zhou Changqing said something casual and ignored him.
Zhou Xia behind him asked: "Is this the Chinese character you caught?"
The corners of Luo Rui's mouth twitched, and Jiang Gang quickly answered: "The gangster in the K301 robbery and murder case , was also captured by Officer Luo and his squadron "
Zhou Xia said with a cold face: "Officer Luo is very majestic. We have already watched the video of Lan Hanwen's interrogation at the police station. I want to ask if you didn't notice it at the time. Is his expression unusual?”
Luo Rui choked for a moment. The internal police interrogation video, the lawyer said he could watch it?
Zhou Xia saw his doubts and said bluntly: "Don't be surprised. Lan Hanwen fell ill in the detention center after your interrogation, so we have reason to watch the interrogation records at that time!"
< br>But Lu Kangming and Li Nong didn't tell themselves about this.
This week, Luo Rui had two days of rest. Could it be that it was during these two days that these people came to the county bureau?
Luo Rui didn't want to be quick to talk, but he couldn't help but said: "Lan Hanwen is a perverted murderer. If you defend such a person, aren't you afraid that he will come out and continue killing people in the future?"
< br>
Zhou Xia sneered: "Speak with evidence, Officer Luo! Do you think a mentally ill patient suddenly appears on the street and you say he is a perverted murderer? They are in danger, but that is not their subjective consciousness.
Including Lan Hanwen’s confession during your interrogation, it may not have legal effect.”
Luo Rui gritted his teeth, eyes bursting with fire.
Zhou Changqing coughed and looked at Jiang Gang: "Prosecutor Jiang, I understand your judicial stance, but please respect the objective facts. The situation of Lan Hanwen is obvious to all, and for so many years, such cases have not been The first case."
Jiang Gang understood the meaning of his words and said in surprise: "Teacher Zhou, are you really planning to plead not guilty?"
Zhou Changqing said: "This is a matter for lawyers, I am just a teacher."
Zhou Xia and the lawyer beside her nodded: "Of course it is a not guilty plea, and it cannot be established without evidence. If you If the procuratorate can produce definite evidence of Lan Hanwen's murder, we can negotiate further."
Jiang Gang was surprised and gave up his body, meaning he didn't want to argue with you.
Zhou Changqing nodded and led the people away.
Before leaving, Zhou Xia glanced deeply at Luo Rui.
Jiang Gang sat down on the chair, very tired.
“Let’s go, let’s go in together?” Luo Rui said.
“I’m not here to see Lan Hanwen!”
Luo Rui blinked: “Then what are you doing here?”
“Staring at the gang just now Man, I received a call from the director of the detention center this morning, saying that Zhou Changqing was here, and the person they saw was not Lan Hanwen, but Ding Zuo!”
"Ding Zuo?"
Jiang Gang raised his head and replied: "When it comes to the motive for killing, Ding Zuo's motive is the most obvious. Besides, he was the one who struck Wang Jialing with the first axe. Is it true, as he said, that he didn't Kill Wang Jialing ? Does this make sense?
Furthermore, the surveillance was restored with the force he used to kill Guan Xia. Everyone can see that this person is also extremely cruel, as long as he admits to killing Wang Jialing. , Lan-Chinese is not enough Can you get away?
So, these bird lawyers can advance and retreat. I am afraid that Lan Hanwen is now confident. "
Luo Rui asked with a cold heart. Said: "13 There were several passengers in Car No. 1. They can testify that Ding Zuo only hit Wang Jialing with an ax and the wound was on the waist. This was not the cause of death. Should their confessions also be overturned? "
Jiang Gang shook his head: "Don't forget, these people also participated in the beating of Wang Jialing. They were full of lies and their testimony was incomplete. For example, when you interrogated the couple who killed Matt, they said they were just I beat Wang Jialing on the bed and didn't get out of bed. , but when I went to interrogate later, I found that He Zhen had gotten out of bed and even touched Wang Jialing's child.
Also, Zhao Jianguo violated Wang Jialing, but he did not tell you that he had. Followed Wang Jialing into the toilet and He molested her inside, but of course he didn't succeed, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to escape if the autopsy revealed it."
"So the confessions of these people have to be reorganized!"
Jiang Gang paused and continued: "Also, I checked for schizophrenia yesterday and went to see a specialized doctor.
Teenagers are most likely to suffer from this disease, usually between 15 and 25 years old. It is completely in line with the Lan-Han culture.
In addition, one of its symptoms is disordered thinking and speech; the second symptom is delusions; the third symptom is hallucinations.
Lan Hanwen also meets the above symptoms. Luo Rui, have we really made a mistake? Regardless of whether Lan Hanwen committed murder or not, it was not his subjective behavior?
After all, severe schizophrenia can cause hallucinations. At that time, the gangsters broke into Car No. 13 and robbed and committed crimes. This affected his mind to the point that he was mentally disturbed at that time? "
Luo Rui shook his head and said very firmly: "I believe in my own judgment. "
Jiang Gang took a breath and became unconfident: "Really? ”
Luo Rui stared at him. "If he really had hallucinations and was insane, then why would a person who had lost his subjective behavior hold Wang Jialing's child? Under the circumstances at that time, would an abnormal person think of protecting the safety of the child?
There is only one explanation, Lan Hanwen is pretending, he is pretending to be sick! ”
Jiang Gang suddenly felt that Luo Rui was a little paranoid, and said: "What you are talking about is exactly Lan Hanwen's plus point. I have also watched the video. I can guarantee that Zhou Changqing and the others will definitely show this video in court. , This proves that Lan Hanwen did not kill anyone!"
Luo Rui was dumbfounded and couldn't say anything else for a moment.
A week has passed. In these days, Luo Rui has been immersed in investigating this case except for two days of rest. He wants to sentence Lan Hanwen to death, or even if he is not sentenced to death, let him stay in prison for a long time. Even for a lifetime.
However, things never go as planned...
Because it was not a formal interrogation by the county bureau, Luo Rui came to visit in a private capacity, so he was placed in the visiting room with an iron bar in the middle. Separated by a fence.
After Lan Hanwen came out, an imperceptible sneer flashed in his eyes, but the smile faded away immediately.
His hair was shaved off, his head was bandaged with gauze, and his face was pale.
At the instruction of the supervisor, Lan Hanwen sat in the chair and then raised his head.
His eyes were half-smiling, and the corners of his mouth were raised.
"Officer Luo, your surname is Luo, right?"
Luo Rui stared at him closely, trying to see through him.
"Lan Hanwen, do you think you can escape the death penalty?"
Lan Hanwen turned his head and looked at him: "Ha, what are you talking about? I didn't kill anyone, why should I be sentenced to death? ”
"You really didn't kill Wang Jialing?"
Lan Hanwen sniffed, raised the back of his handcuffed hand, and wiped the tip of his nose.
When he looked at Luo Rui again, he blinked, and the meaning was self-evident.
"Officer Luo, everything depends on evidence. I can tell you that I did not kill Wang Jialing, I am innocent!"
"I was hallucinating at the time, but I seemed to see The gangster named Ding Zuo killed her.
When the ax struck at the woman, her neck was as brittle as the root of a rapeseed flower, breaking as soon as it was broken.
I saw her begging Ding Zuo, her eyes showing despair..." Suddenly, Luo Rui stood up and cursed: "Have you said enough? "
The guard frowned slightly, but said nothing.
Lan Hanwen chuckled and said: "Wang Jialing died innocently. I am very happy about this. Agree with you. Officer Luo, if nothing happens, I'll go in first. ”
He signaled to the supervisor, who nodded, and then stood up.
When he was about to enter the door, Lan Hanwen turned around and slightly bent his head towards Luo Rui. The curvature of his head and neck formed a 35-degree angle.
This is the state in which Wang Jialing was chopped to death with an axe!
The blood all over Luo Rui's body flowed back, he clenched his fists and froze on the spot.
After a long time, he walked out of the visiting room, came to the bayonet, and took away the keys and handcuffs placed on the counter.
Jiang Gang hadn't left yet. Seeing that he looked tired, he immediately ran over and asked: "How is it? Did this guy say anything?"
Luo Rui said: "Maybe there are only three people in the world who know Lan Hanwen. He killed someone, one was himself, the other was me, and the last one was Wang Jialing who died."
Jiang Gang felt a little ashamed and patted him on the shoulder: "Don't think about it. That's enough. Now that this case has been handed over to our procuratorate, your work is completed. I will go to see Wang Jialing's family in a while and try to let Lan Hanwen stay there for a few more years as much as possible...
< br>If you are fine, go sit with me for a while and help me sort out the materials I will use for prosecution.”
……
Shahe County Procuratorate.
In Jiang Gang's office, Wang Jialing's ex-husband and sister were already waiting for him.
In addition to these two people, there is also Wang Jialing’s two-year-old child.
After Luo Rui greeted them, he sat aside and did not participate in the conversation.
But every time Wang Jiarong said something, he would look at Luo Rui.
Jiang Gang told them in detail the time of the prosecution and his predictions for the case. But when he heard that the perpetrator's defense lawyer was preparing to make a plea of not guilty, Wang Jiarong suddenly stood up from his chair.
Even Lu Yuan’s face changed drastically, with an expression of disbelief.
"Prosecutor, how is this possible!"
"This..."
Wang Jiarong wiped her tears and said: "It was Lan Hanwen who killed my sister, it was him ! ”
Jiang Gang shook his head helplessly: "There is no direct evidence, and there is no motive for the murder, and there are no witnesses..."
Suddenly, Wang Jiarong shouted: "Yes! There are witnesses!"
Lu Yuan also had tears in his eyes and couldn't stop nodding: "We have witnesses!"
Jiang Gang and Luo Rui looked at each other, and they suddenly looked at the little boy sitting in the chair.
According to the testimonies of all the passengers, the two-year-old boy was irritable, hyperactive and making a lot of noise.
But at this moment, he was sitting quietly on the sofa, neither speaking nor moving for more than an hour.
Wang Jiarong hurried over and picked up the little boy: "Bobo, tell aunt, how did mother die?"
The little boy lowered his head and looked at his fingers without making a sound.
Lu Yuan was also very anxious. He looked at his son and said anxiously: "Son, what did you say last night? Tell your father again."
Luo Rui stood up from his chair. After getting up, Jiang Gang also walked out from behind the desk.
Lu Yuan explained to the two of them: "My son can't speak even when he is two years old. He only occasionally speaks a few words to express what he means. But last night, he said several complete sentences. He said..."< br>
When Lu Yuan said this, the little boy raised his head with fearful eyes. Said: "That man killed his mother. The big brother with glasses killed his mother. He killed his mother..."
"He killed his mother..."
"He killed his mother..."
"He killed his mother..."
The little boy suddenly became excited and kept twisting his body in Wang Jiarong's arms, crying and shouting in a sharp voice.
Luo Rui felt cold and trembling all over.
In this little boy’s first memory, it is the scene of his mother being killed, which may stay with him throughout his life.
Wang Jiarong also began to cry loudly, constantly comforting the child.
Lu Yuan calmed down a little and looked at Jiang Gang.
"My son saw the murderer, he is a witness!"
Jiang Gang sighed, wondering: "I understand your feelings, but the child is only two years old, and his testimony has no legal effect. "
Lu Yuan's voice choked: " Prosecutor Jiang, my son saw his mother being killed. Doesn’t that count? What should we do? Did my ex-wife die in vain?”
After that, Lu Yuan sat on the sofa, buried his face in his hands, and cried loudly.
Wang Jiarong looked at Luo Rui, who was in uniform, and begged: "Officer Luo, please, please seek justice for my sister."
Luo Rui felt as if his heart was being stabbed by a knife. He couldn't nod or shake his head.
Since he was a police officer, he had never encountered a case where the suspect was arrested but allowed to escape justice.
A huge feeling of powerlessness enveloped him.
So much so that, after returning to the county bureau, he sat in the chair for a whole afternoon.
All the policemen in the Seventh Squadron knew that he was in a bad mood, and no one dared to disturb him.
When it was time to get off work, Li Nong came.
He pulled up a chair and sat in front of Luo Rui's desk.
"Um... Luo Rui, don't be discouraged. Our work has been completed. Other things can only be left to Jiang Crocodile. Jiang Crocodile, why do people in our county bureau call him that? You are a person who hates evil, I believe that with him here, Wang Jialing will not die in vain."
Luo Rui nodded without saying anything.
"Also...the K301 robbery and murder case has been merged with the murder of Wang Jialing. The procuratorate will initiate a public prosecution. In other words...Jiang Crocodile should tell you that now Ding Zuo has killed Wang Jialing is the most suspected. The procuratorate asked us to investigate this aspect
By the way, Director Lu asked me to tell you that when this case is over, I will apply for you to apply for second-class individual merit and third-class collective merit for the No. 7 Squadron.
In addition, didn’t Bureau Lu say that you should take a week off? Starting from tomorrow, you will have a rest and relax. After you come back to work, we will clean up the backlog of the county bureau. This work will be carried out at the end of the year. , Pingyang County is already doing it, and we can’t lag behind. "
After Li Nong finished speaking, he stood up and patted Luo Rui on the shoulder.
When he was about to leave, he turned his head again and said: "Well...Meng Jun and the other two Regarding the children's schooling, my cousin came to see me. I have already found a school for my two children. Don't worry about this. ”
Luo Rui forced a smile and nodded.
The next morning, Luo Rui packed up his things, drove all morning, and returned to the Bay Villa in Guangxing City.
Because they didn’t say hello in advance, the Rosen couple and Mo Liguo couple were surprised and hurriedly called Nongshan to cook.
Nongshan doesn’t look like a bodyguard at all. He wears an apron all day long and is used as a chef. He is not angry. He dives into the kitchen and takes out the half of the sheep left in the refrigerator. stew.
Nong Ying was not idle either. In addition to teaching the family self-defense every day, he also helped Feng Ping open an acre of vegetable garden in the backyard, and helped He Chunhua tend the flower beds next to the vegetable garden.
Because it was the National Day, Mo Wanqiu was also at home, but not in the villa, but at the foreigner's house next door, teaching the two children of the foreigner's family to learn Chinese. Mo Wanqiu was originally a normal student, so he received training in advance.
At noon, the whole family sat together to have a meal. Nongshan and Nongying became familiar with the family and did not see many outsiders.
While eating, everyone could notice that Luo Rui was not in high spirits. When he came back, he simply said hello and remained silent while eating.
Rosen and Feng Ping thought their son had been wronged and couldn't help comforting him.
Mo Liguo didn't have any consciousness at all. When he caught Luo Rui, he talked about Bitcoin with great interest.
At night, Luo Rui was in no mood to pay attention to Mo Wanqiu's request to go to the basement.
There is a pool table in the basement, which can be used to lie down, poke out, or cross one's legs.
Ever since Mo Wanqiu experienced this, I felt really itchy.
Luo Rui locked himself in the room, lying on the bed, staring at the ceiling dully.
After Mo Wanqiu took a shower, he sneaked in and quietly closed the door.
“What’s wrong? Listless, sitting on the bench?”
Luo Rui ignored her, and Mo Wanqiu sat on the sofa, playing with her phone.
"If you don't come back, I originally planned to go to Shahe County to find you. This seven-day National Day holiday is too boring. How about we go on a trip?"
"Not in the mood."
“Tch, you’re not in the mood, I don’t have time yet, eh, I have to teach Mike every day Those two little brats are giving me a headache to teach. They are not good at Chinese and I am not good at English either..."
Mo Wanqiu began to complain: "Also, these two children are so naughty that people think they are dogs. Annoying. Especially Mike’s eldest son. Mike is going to send him to a psychiatrist.”
Luo Rui closed his eyes and said perfunctorily: "Why should such a young child see a psychiatrist?"
Mo Wanqiu curled his lips: "But what Mike did was right. Think about it, a ten-year-old child already has He’s so old, do you know what this kid did?”
Luo Rui opened his eyes slightly.
"He catches birds and kills them when he catches them. I saw it with my own eyes. He grabbed the neck with one hand and the lower body of the bird with the other. He twisted it hard and the bird's neck was broken. This guy killed There were more than ten dead bodies buried in the backyard. When Mike found out, he was almost mad! "
Luo Rui suddenly felt something in his heart.
Mo Wanqiu continued: "Mike told me that I need to send my son to psychological treatment, otherwise, this kid will develop into a perverted murderer in the future, such as those foreign murderers, the Zodiac, and the chainsaw murderer. , I’m scared just thinking about it...”
Mo Wanqiu turned her eyes and saw Luo Rui had gotten out of bed and was stuffing clothes into the suitcase.
She frowned and asked: "What are you doing at this late hour?"
Luo Rui smiled and looked at her: "Go and do what I should do!"< br>
