Chapter 41
Legally, a mature fetus that has not yet breathed independently is not even a natural person.
Even if the mother is mentally ill, she is still a person without civil capacity under the law.
That's also a person.
Why was she brutally dismembered by a stranger with hatred because she couldn't give birth to a child after enduring rape, begging and other tortures?
This world seems to be particularly cruel to the unfortunate people.
Hearing Lin Anyu's sigh, Pei Jingji smiled indifferently and said vaguely: "Sure enough, a person's personality is formed after birth."
Lin Anyu came back to his senses and stared at him sideways: "Huh? Why do you say that?"
"If it were in the past, Song Luo would never have such feelings." Pei Jingji continued.
Lin Anyu couldn't help but wonder: "If it was Song Luo, what would she do?"
Pei Jingji: "If no one stopped her, she would have just taken a kitchen knife and physically castrated the rapist."
"Hmm?" Lin Anyu asked casually, "Isn't that illegal?"
"It's against the law," Pei Jingji said with emotion, "So every time we go out on a police call and encounter a rape case, Old Ye will stop her."
Lin Anyu had heard about Song Luo's past experiences.
Isn't it said that she has a bad temper?
How can it be stopped?
Lin Anyu asked: "And then they stopped him?"
"It's impossible to stop him. It's impossible to stop him at all. If Song Luo gets angry, he can tear down the roof of the Interpol office," Pei Jingji said as if he was telling an insignificant story. "But Old Ye taught her a method, which is to collect evidence frantically after catching a rapist, and nail the criminal to all the evidence, leaving him no chance to turn over or refute."
"In this way, other police officers would sentence rapists to three to ten years in prison at most. But for Song Luo, the sentence starts at five years and ends at ten years."
Pei Jingji sighed: "Song Luo really hates this kind of prisoners."
As he spoke, Pei Jingji couldn't help but fall into memories: "I still remember what she said when we picked her up at the door that day when she left the International Court of Justice."
"What did she say?"
Lin Anyu had no recollection of her previous experiences, and she was also unfamiliar with the experience that Pei Jingji mentioned.
But the amazing thing is that she didn't want to be anyone's substitute, and this time she actually wanted to know about what she had experienced with them abroad.
As if thinking of something funny, Pei Jingji said with a smile: "She said that the thing that is most in short supply in this world is men. On the contrary, eunuchs are in great short supply. She hopes that one day the international community can come up with a law that is common to the whole world, so that these rapists who walk on the bottom line of the law can enrich the third gender."
"This not only protects human flourishing, but also enriches the diversity of the human species."
Lin Anyu, who hadn't smiled for a long time, raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
Sure enough, that was Song Luo!
After a long while, as if casually, Lin Anyu changed the subject and asked, "Who is Old Ye? Was he important to Song Luo in the past?"
Pei Jingji was stunned for a few seconds and said, "It's not that important, he was just our former captain."
Lin Anyu repeated: "Captain?"
For some reason, she felt extremely unfamiliar with the words "Captain-General".
Pei Jingji said nonchalantly: "He's just an old man in his forties, nagging all day long. He's very annoying. We are all annoyed by him, especially you."
Lin Anyu was puzzled: "Me?"
"Yes, he used to tell you every day that he wanted to train you to be Sherlock Holmes, and you were really fed up with him." Pei Jingji continued, "Every day, I was secretly planning with him how to kick him out of the position of captain."
Lin Anyu couldn't remember any of this. She asked calmly, "Where is he now? Has he returned to China like you did?"
"No," Pei Jingji lied, "He married a foreign white woman the year before you returned to China. The child is probably over four years old now."
Lin Anyu simply said "Oh".
Not knowing how much she believed Pei Jingji's words, she closed her mouth and did not ask further questions.
—
A week passed, and Lin Anyu finally had his first weekend off in two months.
Meng Qirang got up early and made an appointment with Lin Anyu to come out before the city center shopping mall opened at nine o'clock.
Seeing that Lin Anyu was in low spirits, Meng Qirang skillfully took her arm and comforted her: "Don't be unhappy, you have to believe in the laws of our country. The court will make a public judgment on Su Cheng's case."
"I'm not doing this for Su Cheng's case." Lin Anyu said.
Although Su Cheng's case made her sad for several days, she gradually got over it after learning that several people related to the case had received corresponding judgments from the court.
"Then why are you here?" Meng Qirang was curious, "Are you worried about Captain Jiang who is still recovering at home?"
Lin Anyu wanted to cry but had no tears: "Haven't you heard? In a month, we will play a league game with colleagues from Zecheng. At that time, colleagues from the Imperial Capital General Administration will be referees. The winning branch can attend the year-end summary meeting."
Meng Qirang thought it was something wrong, she breathed a sigh of relief: "What's the matter?"
Lin Anyu was aggrieved and seemed to be about to cry in the next second: "But I can't do it."
Hit the gun, hit the gun will not.
Climb, climb will not.
Criminal investigation skills, criminal investigation skills will not.
The only thing she knows is the professional ethics of a police officer, and she is confident that she will be number one.
But the key point is that this league does not test professional ethics.
It's impossible for her to pray to God on the day of the league and let the muscle memory she developed when she was Song Lue help her.
"You can't do that. We have Captain Jiang and Captain Gu. It's not you who decides the life and death of our entire team," Meng Qirang consoled him. "Besides, even if you decide the outcome in one round, your former colleagues in Zecheng won't let you lose too badly."
"Even if they don't give in to you, you can still pretend to be your old self and scare them."
"Scare one for each one you give me."
Lin Anyu: "Maybe it won't scare you."
Meng Qirang: "If we can't scare you, we'll just withdraw. There's no need to force ourselves to do this kind of game that we're bound to lose."
Lin Anyu stared at her blankly: ...
After a while, she murmured dully, "You are so good at comforting people."
-
The two of them walked around the city center shopping mall close to each other for several laps.
It was morning and there were not many people in the mall. Lin Anyu and Meng Qirang were getting bored while shopping.
Meng Qirang asked curiously, "There are so many shopping malls in our city, why did you choose this one in the city center? The women's clothing stores here are not as beautiful as those on the West City Pedestrian Street."
"I heard Jiang Nan said the hotpot here is quite authentic." Lin Anyu said casually.
Meng Qirang perked up: "When did Jiang Nan become so knowledgeable about food? Doesn't he like eating that sesame cake just like you?"
Lin Anyu: "People always need to change their tastes."
Meng Qirang: “That’s right.”
The two of them hadn't walked a few steps when a male voice suddenly called out from behind, "Officer Lin."
Hearing the voice, Lin Anyu and Meng Qirang turned around and saw a well-mannered man in a neat and clean white shirt with a dark brown sweater on his shoulders. He looked kind and gentle.
He smiled faintly, as if without any aggression.
They are completely different from Gu Beizhi, who often has a fox-like "cunning" smile.
"Who is this?" Meng Qirang asked first, "She looks pretty good."
Lin Anyu introduced: "His name is Xu Jinshu, and he is Song Luo's friend."
"Song Luo?" Meng Qirang obviously missed the point. She said in shock, "You really know Song Luo."
"Yes." Xu Jinshu replied quickly.
"Awesome." Meng Qirang gave two thumbs up.
Lin Anyu looked at Meng Qirang's exaggerated movements and she felt a little embarrassed for a moment.
She really wanted to say - Song Luo, not only does he know him, you know him too.
Meng Qirang asked curiously: "What is your occupation?"
"A sleep aid," Xu Jinshu answered, "I am also a professional anchor. I often broadcast live on the Kuhu platform. If you are interested, you are welcome to come to my live broadcast room."
"Okay, I'll go when I have time," Meng Qirang seemed to feel something was wrong. She asked, "You're a sleep aid, and Song Luo is a criminal policeman. How did you two know each other?"
Lin Anyu also stared at him curiously, as if he was also curious about what answer Xu Jinshu would give.
Xu Jinshu's face was calm, and he said slowly, "I broke the law before, and it was Song Luo who caught me and asked me to turn myself in."
Meng Qirang was shocked for a second and asked, "You turned yourself in?"
Xu Jinshu said: "Yes, after Song Luo let me go, I was sentenced to two years, and now I am out."
Meng Qirang: "Song Luo let you go? Why?"
Xu Jinshu's eyes fell on Lin Anyu idly and said, "Because, just as she put the handcuffs on me, a fire broke out in a nearby warehouse. The fire was so big that in just a few minutes, the black night sky was burned red."
"Song Luo originally wanted to wait outside the fire scene until the fire brigade arrived, and then she would take me back to the police station. However, at this time, a man rushed out of the fire scene with flames all over his body. In order to save people, Song Luo let me go without hesitation."
That was the first time Xu Jinshu felt such a shock from the bottom of his heart since he was a child, and it was from a policeman who was determined to capture him and take him to the police station.
Xu Jinshu continued: "I asked her why."
"She told me that before the court issued a ruling, she would defend everyone's right to live. Even if I was a suspect."
The more Xu Jinshu spoke, the more confused he became. "In order to prevent an innocent suspect from being implicated in the fire, she released the suspect she had caught with great effort. And in order to save people, when she saw a figure rushing out of the fire, she ran into the fire alone without any protective measures."
"This is an absolutely perfect sacrifice of one's life..." Xu Jinshu looked at Lin Anyu, as if expecting her answer, "Is it really worth it?"
Lin Anyu met his eyes calmly without saying a word.
Her eyes were round and without any complicated emotions.
It was as if everything I just heard was just a story.
Only Meng Qirang, who was listening to all this quietly, said anxiously: "How is Song Luo now? Where is the person she saved?"
Xu Jinshu simply uttered two words: "Dead."
I just don’t know what question Meng Qi was asking about with this answer.
