After Officer Tan Zhen arrived at the emergency office, Officer Zheng Xin had almost finished his inquiries on the matter.
With the evidence before him, Xue Lei knew he could not escape death, so he simply confessed everything.
Xue Lei and his wife are lovers. They both work in large companies and have high salaries, so their lives are very comfortable at the time.
But since the high temperatures began last year, companies have been laying off employees and they both lost their jobs.
Without a source of income, and with prices soaring after the natural disaster, their savings soon could not cover their daily expenses.
After the last month of the high temperature, the couple’s savings were officially exhausted and they could only start trying to eat sand rattan cakes.
Xue Lei simply couldn't accept such a life. He had been pampered since childhood and couldn't eat such sticky food at all. He often suffered from hunger and stomachache.
Later, a volcano erupted and the earth was shrouded in darkness. One day, he was awakened from his dream by hunger. Looking at the darkness outside the window, a plan quietly took shape in his mind...
Finally, one night three days later, he suffocated his wife to death by smothering her with a pillow while she was sleeping soundly.
The wife broke the bedside ornaments while struggling, waking up the child next door. The child ran over and knocked on the door, directly witnessing the horrific scene of his father killing his mother.
Seeing this, Xue Lei was afraid that the truth would be exposed, so he gritted his teeth and strangled his child again.
After confirming that his wife and child were dead, he took the two bodies to the bathroom.
He spread plastic wrap on the floor and the wall, left a hole where the toilet should be, and began to bleed the two men.
After bleeding them, he emptied their internal organs, found the edible salt he had stored away, covered their bodies with the salt, and hung them on the air conditioner outside.
His family lived on the 28th floor of a high-rise building, and no one lived on the floors above and on the 26th and 27th floors below.
Not only that, the two apartments on the left and right sides of his house were also empty.
Therefore, no one noticed that in the pitch-black night, there were two bodies in Building 12, hung so blatantly on the outer wall of the building for several months...
As for the internal organs, Xue Lei wrapped them in layers of plastic wrap, hid them in a suitcase, and buried them in the hills behind the community under the cover of night.
As Xue Lei was talking, he actually burst into laughter: "Look, the weather is so dry now, it's really suitable for making dried and cured meat. When I'm hungry, I just open the window and take a piece to cook. It's very convenient!"
Because no one lived in the houses next to his house, and he was very careful to block the doors and windows when he stewed the meat, so basically no one noticed the meaty aroma emanating from his house.
The people at the scene looked uglier as they listened. Xia Huiyin even hugged Xia Shige and covered her ears with her hands, not wanting her to hear these things.
Officer Tan Zhen felt his stomach churning again. He suppressed the nausea and angrily slammed the table: "That's your wife and child! How could you have the heart to do that to them!"
Xue Lei just sneered: "I can hardly survive, why should I think about this? When generals in ancient times were short of food, they would kill their concubines and cook them to feed the soldiers!"
"This matter has become a good story, and everyone praises the general for his righteousness! So what if I eat my own wife and children now? If I share them with my neighbors, I will also be worthy of being called a righteous man!"
Officer Zheng Xin's face turned pale. He said in a deep voice, "Don't make a fuss here. This is the 21st century. You killed two people. Don't you think it's cruel?"
Xue Lei shouted directly after hearing this: "Don't use this moral blackmail on me! What's wrong with the 21st century? This society has always been a place where the strong prey on the weak! It has always been like this! Anyone who is weaker than me deserves to be eaten by me!"
Xue Lei even boasted: "I'm telling you the truth. When I was in elementary school, I killed all the stray cats and dogs in the neighborhood!"
"I can skin and bone those animals alive one by one! You don't know, they can turn into a blood clot and run around, it's so interesting! Since animals can be killed, why can't people be killed?!"
Seeing Xue Lei's crazy look, everyone in the room frowned, thinking that he was simply unreasonable.
