Chapter 115: Becoming a Non-Staff Police Officer
My brother's wife was already in the interrogation room. She was in her thirties, with her hair tied in a bun, fair skin, a plump figure, and a flickering look in her eyes. She didn't look like someone who would keep to herself.
"Comrade Public Security, I really didn't kill anyone. My pigs are starving to death because no one feeds them. Please let me go back..."
As soon as Luo Xinxin and the others came in, my sister-in-law started crying and begging.
“How many pigs do you have?”
Luo Xinxin asked after sitting down.
"Both."
"How many pounds?"
"Less than 100 pounds, a piglet caught before the New Year."
"The big pig is sold?"
"Yes, the piggy that I sold and bought again."
Luo Xinxin started chatting with her about family matters, and her sister-in-law's vigilance gradually decreased.
"Where do you think your husband might be going? Is he having a lover outside?"
Luo Xinxin lit up a Tingxin card. She was awarded 100 points for the previous case, so she would probably make a lot of money from this case as well.
"I don't know, maybe he went to his lover's house."
My brother's wife has a strong mental state. She remains calm and collected, and not panicked at all.
But I still can't escape the heart card.
[Humph, I already stewed it till it was rotten and fed it to the pigs, and sold the pigs.]
Luo Xinxin raised her eyebrows. It turned out that she was just feeding the pigs. She had the potential to be a detective.
"Who is your man's lover?"
"I don't know. He hides everything from me and doesn't agree with me."
"So you killed him, chopped him up, stewed him, fed him to the pigs, and then sold the pigs?"
Luo Xinxin spoke very quickly. His sister-in-law was stunned for a moment, a look of panic flashed across her face, and she shouted, "No, I didn't kill him. I don't know where he went."
[Old Zhou killed him, I didn’t do it]
[This woman must be cheating on me, I can't admit it]
My sister-in-law was indeed very calm mentally. She quickly calmed down and refused to admit it.
"Yes, you didn't kill anyone, it was your adulterer, Lao Zhou, who did it. Then you both chopped them into pieces. Your husband is tall, so you had to cook them in several pots. You cooked them all night and had to seal the doors and windows for fear that the neighbors would smell the meat."
Luo Xinxin guessed half of it herself. Thanks to her love of watching suspense dramas, she had seen a lot of similar cases and was able to guess a general idea.
"No, don't accuse me!"
My sister-in-law was not as calm as before. Her face was covered in sweat and she was extremely panicked.
This female police officer seemed to have gotten into her stomach. She knew everything she was thinking. It was so scary.
"Your husband was a bricklayer. He went to the next village to help build a house. He didn't come back until dark every day. But that day he injured his hand and came home early. He caught you and Lao Zhou having an affair. You were afraid that the matter would be exposed, so you killed him together."
Luo Xinxin used the heart-listening card to stimulate her sister-in-law.
The panicked sister-in-law was sweating profusely. This woman seemed to have seen it right there, and it was exactly the same.
"Old Zhou originally planned to dump the body in the reservoir, but you felt it wasn't safe, so you suggested chopping it up into pieces and boiling it to feed the pigs. The two of you worked all night to successfully destroy the body, but the law is not perfect. When you chopped the body, a piece of bone spilled under the bed, and it's still there."
He Gongan's expression remained unchanged as he agreed, "The bones have been examined and are from your husband's ribs."
My sister-in-law's face was pale and she looked terrified. She was trying hard to recall whether any bones had splashed under the bed when she was chopping that night.
"We police officers are honest. Although your husband's body hasn't been found, his bones have. If you don't tell the truth, you alone will bear the responsibility and will be shot."
Luo Xinxin's half-serious and half-false threats made her sister-in-law's face turn pale and her mentality collapsed.
She doesn't want to die. She is still young and hasn't lived enough!
It was Lao Zhou who killed someone, not her. Why should she be the only one responsible?
The sister-in-law confessed everything and put the blame on her lover, Lao Zhou, portraying herself as a pitiful person who was forced by Lao Zhou to help dismember the body.
Luo Xinxin sneered secretly. This woman had a vicious heart. Old Zhou was bewitched by her to kill people.
After his sister-in-law was taken away, He Gongan's apprentice Xiao Li excitedly said, "Comrade Luo, you are really amazing. You made the other party confess with just a few words."
"Your master also needs to cooperate well with you."
Luo Xinxin smiled modestly.
He Gongan also smiled, and became more and more impressed with her abilities. He even had the idea of letting Luo Xinxin come to work at the Public Security Bureau.
With this girl helping with interrogations, their crime-solving rate will definitely increase significantly.
"Comrade Luo, are you interested in being a police officer?" asked He Gongan.
"You have to work overtime every day. It's too hard."
Luo Xinxin refused. She said that criminal police work harder than oxen and horses, and overtime is commonplace. She doesn't want to work so hard.
"How about this? You become a non-staff police officer. They'll ask you for help when they encounter a difficult case. You don't have to come to work every day, but you'll still get paid. How about that?"
He Gongan quickly came up with a solution.
"How much is the salary?"
"I can't decide on this, but I will ask the director to give you more." He Gongan said with a smile.
"OK."
Luo Xinxin agreed. Since the money was delivered to her doorstep, she would rather take it.
Then she helped interrogate two stubborn suspects and easily got them to confess. The efficiency of handling the case was extremely high, and the comrades in the Public Security Bureau had never felt so relaxed.
"No need to work overtime today, get off work on time!"
He Gongan also felt relaxed. He hadn't been home for dinner for several days. He had exceeded his task today and had to go home to be with his wife and children.
He took Luo Xinxin to the director's office and quickly negotiated a non-staff job. It was now early August, and it could be counted as one month's salary. The director's salary was higher than that of the farm, and she could get 32 yuan a month.
Public Security He took her to go through the employment procedures. Luo Xinxin filled out the forms and had to attach a photo.
"If you don't bring photos with you, the bureau can take them and I'll paste them on for you after they're developed," said He Gongan.
"No, I brought it."
Luo Xinxin pretended to search in her bag and took out a one-inch photo of her original body before she applied the medicine. Even though it was a black and white ID photo, one could see the original body's beautiful face.
"Is this you?"
He Gongan was stunned for a moment, but he quickly confirmed that it was indeed Luo Xinxin herself. The intact half of her face looked exactly the same as in the photo.
"Yes, I applied medicine on my face, but it wore off after six months."
Luo Xinxin told the truth.
He Gongan understood very well that if such a beautiful girl went to the farm and didn't dress up ugly, she would definitely be bullied. He had handled many such cases before, and beautiful girls were bullied badly, and some even lost their lives.
The procedures were completed quickly, and she was lucky enough that payday came today. She didn't work a single day but received a month's salary.
"He Gongan, if you have any difficult cases, feel free to come to me. I'm always available."
Luo Xinxin was very enthusiastic because she found that she could get more points as a reward for helping the police investigate cases than on the farm. Just by helping with four cases, the system rewarded her with 300 points, which was a considerable gain.
[Those four are extremely vicious criminals. The host is helping the people to eliminate them, so naturally he gets more points.]
The system explained her doubts.
"Then should I become a formal police officer so I can investigate cases every day?"
Luo Xinxin was a little tempted. Working overtime was hard, but the points were great.
[You need to have a long-term vision. There are more ways to earn points than just solving cases. Once you have a winery on the farm, you will earn more points than just solving cases.]
The system quickly dissuaded her from this idea. In the long run, it would be more cost-effective to set up a factory.
"Okay."
Luo Xinxin agreed. She said goodbye to He Gongan and drove the carriage back to the farm.
She didn't plan to tell her family about the non-staff police officer, but she wanted to tell Director Lei. On her way back to the farm, she had to pass by the train station. There were more than a dozen people standing at the station entrance, and they didn't look like locals.
Luo Xinxin glanced at it casually and didn't care. After driving the carriage for more than ten meters, she suddenly braked. She seemed to have seen an acquaintance.
