Chapter 274 Aftermath
Xia Lijun held the knife in both hands, raised the blade high, and stabbed it down one by one.
Blood seeped out from the blue hospital gown on You Qiumei's chest, blooming like black and red flowers one by one.
There was an indistinct cry from her throat, like the sound of a chick breaking out of its shell.
You Qiumei looked at her husband with despair in her eyes, muddy tears flowing from the corners of her eyes.
Blood splashed on Xia Lijun's hand, and the back of his hand was warm.
Even so, he did not stop holding the butcher knife in his hand.
Until You Qiumei turned her head sideways and her pupils were frozen, Xia Lijun stopped assassinating as if he was drowning.
He was breathing heavily, his mind went blank.
But when he was clearly making his move, he heard his son calling him and calling his mother. The feeling of despair and helplessness was like the cry of his son who had just learned to speak.
Xia Lijun looked at his wife's body and was stunned for a moment.
Just a few seconds later, the ward door was suddenly pushed open.
When the nurse doing the rounds saw this scene, she immediately screamed.
"It's killing! Come on, it's killing!"
Hearing the shout, the nurses in the corridor immediately gathered around, and the patients rushed to block the door.
One of the doctors in white coats swallowed his saliva and immediately brought a fire extinguisher from the corridor.
The nurses quickly made way for him to stand at the front.
“Put down the knife, put down the knife quickly!”
Xia Lijun didn’t hear anything and slumped down in his chair.
On the white quilt, fell a photo of a family of three, and everyone's smiling faces in the photo were stained with blood.
The doctor didn't dare to move forward and kept trying to persuade him.
At this time, two uniformed policemen ran from one end of the corridor.
Seeing the current situation in front of them, both of them were shocked.
One of the policemen took out his baton and wanted to move forward, but was stopped by another policeman.
The man grabbed the fire extinguisher from the doctor's hand and pulled out the latch.
Xia Lijun's pupils flashed, he suddenly raised his head and smiled outside the ward.
Then he raised the knife and stabbed himself in the throat.
But the policeman had quick eyesight and quick hands. When he was about to stab him, he pressed down the handle of the fire extinguisher.
The fire extinguishing agent sprayed out immediately, and the white mist particles immediately engulfed Xia Lijun.
“Ahem…”
Taking advantage of this moment, policemen with batons came forward and knocked the fruit knife out of Xia Lijun's hand with their batons.
Then, after another policeman saw that the other policeman had no weapon in his hand, he threw away the fire extinguisher in his hand and swarmed up with his companions.
Xia Lijun was arrested...
...
Haijiang Division, Criminal Team.
It has been almost a month since the case ended, and the files have been sorted out long ago. The case was handed over to the court as early as half a month ago.
Tian Guanghan sat in a chair, with his hands folded and pillowed behind his head, looking carefree.
"Let me tell you, brothers, this case has been going on for more than a month, and New Year's Day is coming soon. Should we go to Shahe County to handle the case?"
Hearing this, Yang Bo and Fang Yonghui both sighed, and the latter curled his lips. : "As early as half a month ago, Bureau Lu asked us to go back, but Bureau Wei would not let us go."
Tian Guanghan said with a smile: "There is nothing we can do about it. There are so many cases in Haijiang Division every day." There is a murder and the case will never be solved.”
Yang Bo rolled his eyes at him: "Pull him down, Director Wei went back on what we said. We have been here for almost half a year."
"What? Are you two homesick?"
Fang Yonghui and Yang Bo looked at each other, and then both gave Tian Guanghan a middle finger.
Chu Yang looked at these three people and smiled: "But having said that, our Haijiang Division's crime detection rate this year should rank first in Haidong Province, right?"
Su Mingyuan shook his head: " The city bureau is number one. I asked Captain Du, Qinggui Chen Hao has solved many old cases in the past six months.”
Yang Bo snorted: "Those are all small cases. Our criminal team investigates all major cases. In terms of the nature of the case, we must be number one."
Yang Bo has little contact with Chen Hao, so naturally Take sides.
"Don't underestimate Qinggui, no matter what, he is second to none!" Tian Guanghan said, giving a thumbs up.
Chu Yang said: "The municipal bureau usually does some guidance work, and the criminal police brigade is mainly responsible for investigating and handling cases.
After Chen Detachment took office, he really changed the municipal bureau. In his previous style, whether it was a big case or a small case, he could grasp all the cases and solve them one by one. In terms of ability, I think he is on par with our team leader.”
Hearing this, Yang Bo retorted: "I think Luo Da is stronger."
Fang Yonghui also echoed: "I agree with Yang Bo's words."
"Tch!" Tian Guanghan snorted: " You two are too subjective. The team leader and Chen Zhi have different styles. Chen detachment needs to be calmer. ."
Yang Bo choked: "You are a rip-off guy."
"Don't talk nonsense. This is my objective analysis. Our team leader is very capable and knows the case well. His sense of smell is very keen, but he still lacks a little calmness.
In the past, when Captain Cai was here, she could restrain our team leader and persuade him, but now no one can talk to our team leader.
I always feel that there is a devil living in the heart of our team leader.
If this devil is released, it will be bad. "
Fang Yonghui laughed and said: "I said, Lao Tian, are you telling people's fortunes? Damn it, there is a devil living in Luo Da's heart? If he hears this, you will be in trouble. ”
Fang Yonghui looked at the others, but saw that everyone had serious faces, as if they were deeply convinced.
Tian Guanghan spread his hands: "See, I'm not the only one who thinks so."
Chu Yang and Su Mingyuan looked at each other, thinking at the same time of the serial murder case they had investigated with Luo Rui. .
At that time, Luo Rui was still a student at the Criminal Police Academy and participated in the Guo Yun case as a criminal consultant.
Guo Yun, a woman, suffered a miserable life since childhood and was used by her mother to make money. When she grew up, she became anonymous and wanted to restart her life, but she was imprisoned by Huang Fayong and Huang Biao successively, so that she rose up kill.
At that time, Chu Yang and others who were involved in the case traced all the way to Guo Yun's birthplace.
After Guo Yun took revenge, she rode a motorcycle and took her mother with her, originally planning to die together.
Her mother is the culprit responsible for her tragic life.
However, in the end, she let go of her mother and her hatred for her mother, and died alone.
And her mother, Li Zhifen, after her daughter fell into the cliff.
Her conscience found out and she went to die with her.
At that time, Chu Yang and Su Mingyuan were on the side of the car. Although they did not see the specific situation of the incident from the front, it could be judged from the clues at the scene that Luo Rui was capable of saving the woman.
Tian Guanghan said that there was a devil living in Luo Rui's heart, which Chu Yang and Su Mingyuan believed deeply.
But this secret has always been hidden in the hearts of two people.
At this time, Su Mingyuan sighed: "Hey, it would be great if Captain Cai was here. Our team is full of old men, and I get upset when I look at your greasy faces all day long. "
Tian Guanghan sneered: "Tsk, I feel annoyed when I look at you."
"Old Tian, you said that you wear a bald head every day, just like a suspect. So, I will help you pay and you will buy a wig?"
"Fuck you!" Tian Guanghan took it He picked up a brochure in his hand and smashed it over.
Su Mingyuan laughed and ducked away.
Then everyone started to quarrel, and you and I were making jokes.
Chu Yang was a little more steady, crossed his hands and said: "Stop making trouble, the team leader is back!"
As soon as these words came out, Tian Guanghan and Su Mingyuan immediately looked towards the door, but they didn't see any ghosts.
However, the two stopped fighting.
Chu Yang asked: "It's already past working hours, why hasn't the team leader come yet?"
Everyone looked at Fang Yonghui, who quickly shook his head: "Don't look at me, I Who knows why Luo Da didn’t come?”
“Aren’t you the team leader’s follower?” Tian Guanghan teased.
"Tch, what happened to my followers? You will never learn anything from Luo Da in your lifetime."
After speaking, Fang Yonghui rolled his eyes: "However, Luo Da has been a little worried in recent days. Zhan, I don’t know why? I watched him two days ago. He drove to the detention center. "
Chu Yang blinked: "What did he go to the detention center for?"
Fang Yonghui spread his hands: "How did I know?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the glass door of the office was suddenly pushed open.
Du Feng, the criminal police captain of Haijiang Branch, appeared in front of everyone. He was holding a mobile phone in his hand. After looking around the office, he asked: "Where is your team leader?"
Everyone shook their heads together. .
Du Feng smacked his lips: "I can't get through the phone either. Where did he go?"
The members of the criminal team looked at each other several times, all a little confused.
Du Feng continued: "By the way, this morning, the police station received a report that a patient was killed by his husband in the ward. This victim is from your last case The relevant person’s name is You Qiumei”
"Ah?" Everyone was surprised.
Chu Yang immediately asked: "How could she be killed?"
Du Feng shrugged: "His husband Xia Lijun was just released from the detention center this morning. He was killed directly after he went to the hospital. "
Chu Yang: "You Qiumei participated in the murder of Xia Bing. After all, she was also a suspect half a month ago. After filing the case, we also transferred the case to the court, and the person protecting You Qiumei was replaced by a bailiff."
"The problem is that before the incident, the inpatient department of the hospital was robbed by thieves. The police did not arrive in time, and the family members of the stolen patients directly called the bailiff to deal with it, and You Qiumei's husband took advantage of it.
Okay, this case was investigated by you, and now Xia Lijun has been arrested. Now select one of you to go to the interrogation room with me, so that Luo Rui will not know anything when he arrives. "
Chu Yang raised his hand: "Captain Du, I'll go with you. "
"Okay, just you. "After saying that, Du Feng turned and left.
Chu Yang followed Du Feng, feeling mixed in his heart.
It was he and Su Mingyuan who sent You Qiumei to the hospital in the first place. , I thought she wouldn't survive, but luckily, she miraculously survived.
Regarding this woman, the police officers involved in the investigation of the case did not have a good impression of her.
Tiger poison does not eat its seeds, but this woman is really capable of killing her own flesh and blood.
She just wanted to survive and didn't care about her children's lives.
For her safety, Chu Yang and Su Mingyuan guarded her in the hospital for half a month. The two of them and the police from the local police station took turns guarding her.
Half a month ago, after her injury stabilized, Luo Rui went to the hospital and took notes on You Qiumei.
To this day, Chu Yang still remembers the way Luo Rui looked at You Qiumei, just like the way he looked at Guo Yun's mother two years ago.
Hate, deep hatred, and extreme indifference. You Qiumei could not speak and could only write down her confession with a pen.
When she talked about killing Xia Bing, she was completely brushed off from the responsibility. She kept emphasizing that she was forced to do it, her life was threatened, and she had no choice but to do it. Something like this comes.
When Luo Rui heard this, his eyes were so cold that he wanted to kill someone.
After recording the confession, supplementing the evidence, and transferring the case to the court, the prosecutor who took over said that You Qiumei was indeed forced. In addition to her confession, there were also confessions from two suspects.
Moreover, she was also the victim of this case. She suffered inhuman torture and was almost killed.
For what happened to her, the court will definitely pronounce a sentence at its own discretion. Prosecutors speculated that You Qiumei might be acquitted. Even if she was found guilty, the execution would be suspended and she would not have to go to jail at all.
Hearing this, everyone was a little aggrieved.
At that time, Chu Yang saw Luo Rui's face turned pale. He didn't say anything, but sneered twice.
Now, You Qiumei was killed by her husband, and Chu Yang felt that something was wrong.
When he arrived at the interrogation room, Chu Yang went directly into the observation room.
The people responsible for the interrogation are Du Feng and an old detective.
Xia Lijun sat stiffly in his chair, his eyes no longer shining.
When the interrogation began, Xia Lijun answered the questions mechanically without raising his head.
Du Feng asked: "After you came out of the detention center, you were already ready to kill You Qiumei?"
"Yes."
"Why?"
"No Why.”
Du Feng sighed.
"Xia Lijun, I know your difficulties, and I also know what you think. It took less than three hours for you to leave the detention center and go to the hospital to kill You Qiumei.
It can be seen that you are going to What a great determination, but I still want to ask you, do you regret it?"
Xia Lijun was expressionless and shook his head slightly.
"Officer, I admit everything I did, shoot me, I just want to die!"
For many years, Du Feng has been handling cases, and this is the first time a suspect has made such a request.
Generally speaking, the suspects being interrogated are begging for mercy, speaking incoherently and fearfully.
Although there are suspects who demand the death penalty, they are very few.
Xia Lijun was devastated. If the bailiff guarding outside the ward had not acted promptly, he might have died.
Du Feng has already questioned the arresting police officers and the nurses present.
Xia Lijun was holding a fruit knife. He did not cut his throat, but directly stabbed the aorta in his throat with the tip of the knife.
If he really succeeds, even the gods will be unable to save him.
Du Feng took a breath and said: "According to the regulations, you were carrying controlled knives before and you should still be in detention. Who helped you?"
Hearing this, I waited. Chu Yang, who was in the observation room, immediately frowned and felt anxious.
Half an hour ago, Fang Yonghui said that Luo Rui had been to the detention center...
“No one helped me.”
"If you don't tell us, we will find out. Don't you think you are being taken advantage of?"
At this time, Xia Lijun raised his head. There was gauze on his neck, his eyes were red and swollen, and tears were pouring down his face. .
"Really? Why am I being used by others? My wife killed my biological son with her own hands! I wish I could tear her into pieces!
If someone really takes advantage of me, then In fact, it helped me. If you let me If I had to choose again, I would still do it.
For so many years, I have worked hard to make money to support my family, but this woman, You Qiumei, has a vicious heart and has ruined this family!
Xia Bing, my son...
Woooo...
I...I can't forgive this woman, I can't..."
Xia Lijun burst into tears, The whole body curled up, and snot and tears flowed out together.
"I am guilty, I killed someone, I only have one wish, let me die early so that I can see my son as soon as possible.
I'm afraid...I'm afraid that he will get lost, I'm afraid that I will never meet him again in the next life..."
Seeing that he was so excited, Du Feng had no way to continue the interrogation.
He stood He stood up, walked to the interrogation table, and patted his shoulder: "I can understand your mood. You rest first, and when your mood stabilizes, we can continue talking. "
Du Feng looked at the policeman on duty: "Take him away first. Remember, place him alone and don't live with other suspects. "
"Yes! "The police on duty began to remove Xia Lijun's restraints and put movable handcuffs on him.
Du Feng walked out of the interrogation room, and Chu Yang quickly came out of the observation room.
"Captain Du, what should we do next?"
"Since Luo Rui is not here, leave this case to me."
Chu Yang said immediately : "No, just leave it to our criminal team."
Du Feng stared at him thoughtfully: "So active?"
"Uh..." Chu Yang smiled and said: "The victim You Qiumei is a person related to our last case. The two cases are related and we are familiar with them. If we take over, the case will be concluded faster. .”
Du Feng laughed and shook his head: "Forget it, let me do it. The suspects have been caught, but some doubts have not been clarified yet, so you don't need to come.
Besides, it's New Year's Day soon, Director Wei is ready to let you go There are two days off, and the year-end celebration party will be held, and after that, you will go to Shahe County to handle the case. There are many things to do, so I will leave this case to me."
After saying that, Du Feng waved. Called two of his subordinates and ordered He ordered: "Go to the detention center immediately to find out who has seen Xia Lijun during his detention.
There must be surveillance in the interview room of the detention center. Please give me a copy of the surveillance video.
Also, on the morning of the incident, the inpatient unit was robbed by thieves, which caused the two bailiffs guarding the victim's door to become passive, which led to the tragedy. Go and find this thief! "
"Understood! ”
“Let’s do it now! "
The four detectives left immediately. Du Feng turned around and saw Chu Yang still beside him. He couldn't help but frowned and asked, "What's wrong? Do you have anything else to do? "
Chu Yang's face turned blue and he shook his head hurriedly: "It's okay. Captain Du, am I busy then? ”
"Okay, when you see Luo Rui, say hello to me."
Chu Yang nodded, turned around and strode away.
After returning to the office of the criminal team, Chu Yang sat down in the chair, his back was covered in cold sweat, and his heart was pounding.
Seeing him like this, other people immediately asked him what happened.
Chu Yang’s eyes were dazed, he swallowed a mouthful of saliva and shook his head.
Then, with trembling hands, he took out his mobile phone and dialed Luo Rui's number.
But still no one answered the phone.
Chu Yang suppressed his inner impulse and said to everyone: "We have to find the team leader quickly!"
Fang Yonghui wondered: "Old Chu, what happened to you?"
Yang Bo also said: 'Yes, you were so distraught when you came back from the interrogation room! ’
Chu Yang took a breath, looked at everyone, and said: "Stop asking, listen to me, find the team leader first! Yang Bo and Yonghui, go to the team leader's beach villa and see if he is at home.
Lao Tian and Mingyuan, go to the Municipal Bureau to find Detachment Chen!”
Su Mingyuan! He was so excited that he was startled: "Chu Yang, if you don't tell us anything, what will we say if we find someone?"
"Go quickly! Listen to me and contact me immediately if you find someone. !"
Tian Guanghan blinked: "What about you?"
Chu Yang stood up, looked outside the office, and made up his mind: "I'm going to find Director Wei!"
After saying that, he rushed out of the office.
Others also took action together. Although they didn’t know the ins and outs of the matter, everyone vaguely felt that something big must have happened.
Chu Yang walked to the director's office, took a deep breath, and knocked on the door.
At this time, Wei Qunshan's secretary came out of the room next to the office.
"Hey, what are you doing?"
"Well, hello, Chief Pei, I have something to do with Director Wei."
"Are you in a hurry?"
"Uh... this..." Chu Yang hesitated, not knowing how to speak.
"So you are not in a hurry? Director Wei is not in the building today. If you have nothing to do, come back in the afternoon."
"Okay!" Chu Yang sighed secretly, turned around and left.
As he walked, he took out his mobile phone and made an overseas call.
……
Haijiang subdivision, Xiahewan.
On the muddy bank, two fishing rods were stuck in the mud.
The floats on the river swayed gently with the current.
Luo Rui sat in a chair and looked at Wei Qunshan who was sitting aside.
"Director Wei, you are so in high spirits today, did you invite me to come here to fish?"
Wei Qunshan glanced at him, with a thoughtful expression on his face, and he pointed at the place where he stopped. BMW car in the distance.
“I just heard your cell phone ringing in the car. It seems like many people are looking for you. Why don’t you answer the phone?”
Luo Rui shook his head and looked towards the river.
Seeing that he didn't speak, Wei Qunshan said again: "They say fishing is for self-cultivation and to exercise patience. I don't think so..."
"Oh, what do Bureau Wei think? ”
“I think, in fact, this is a kind of self-cultivation, and you will gain something while waiting. But some people are very anxious and want to be able to protect themselves every day.
As police officers, we must have this patience and abide by the rules. Fishing is similar to arresting criminals. It is all about analysis. Analyze the wind direction, analyze the humidity, analyze a lot of messy things, right? ”
Luo Rui smiled: "What you said makes sense."
Wei Qunshan did not smile, but looked sideways at him: "Luo Rui, we have known each other for so long, I am looking at you When you grow up, Lao Hu is your teacher, and so am I. You’re half a teacher, don’t you?”
Luo Rui looked back at him and replied, “Yes! I will definitely learn more from you in the future.”
Wei Qunshan. She kept staring at him without moving her eyes away.
Luo Rui did not shy away, his eyelids unblinking.
After a long time, Wei Qunshan said leisurely: "Since you regard me as your teacher, then tell me honestly, have you ever seen Xia Lijun?"
