The Case of the Body Hidden in the Freezer (Part 2)

The Case of the Body Hidden in the Freezer (Part 2)

Old Chen saw her shocked expression and laughed, "The one who caught the suspect is Gu Fang. He is just like the legend, a detective who solves cases." He raised his eyebrows exaggeratedly and said in a low voice, "It is definitely better for you to follow him than to stay with us. You can learn a lot. When you become rich in the future, don't forget your brother Chen."

Shen Xingyan rolled her eyes, "Why do I feel like you want to go more than I do?"

"When I was young, I also dreamed of becoming a detective, but unfortunately I had the will but not the ability."

Shen Xingyan looked at him deeply and said, "Thank you, Brother Chen."

"Why thank me? I didn't do anything."

"Who is the suspect? Her son?"

This time it was Old Chen who was shocked. "This is incredible. They knew the suspect even when you were not here."

In this case, even if it was not in her grandfather's notes, she could guess that it was Xie Fang's son. In her era, it was not uncommon for mothers to control their children too much, leading to emotional outbursts and children accidentally killing their mothers.

But she didn't understand. Since Xie Fang was already dead, wouldn't it be safer to just dump the body? Why put it in the freezer and in the living room?

She was very curious about what Xie Weijie was thinking when he did this. "Has it been tried?"

"It's still under review."

"Let's go and take a look."

In the interrogation room, Gu Fang folded his arms, crossed his legs, and looked nonchalant. With his handsome face, he looked like some dandy young man. Yang Dawei, who sat next to him, was responsible for taking notes.

Opposite him was the criminal suspect Xie Weijie, who looked very uneasy and kept rubbing his fingers.

Gu Fang: "Why did you kill your mother?"

Xie Weijie shrank back, then his eyes widened in shock, "My mother is dead? Officer, you must be mistaken, my mother is not dead, she is just asleep."

Gu Fang sneered, "Sleeping in a freezer? Xie Weijie, how long are you going to keep lying to yourself?"

"I didn't kill my mother, I didn't! I didn't..." Xie Weijie covered his head and sobbed, "I didn't kill her, she just fell asleep."

Gu Fang was impatient. He had seen many people pretending to be stupid, but he had never seen anyone lying with open eyes. "Okay, just assume she was asleep. Why was she sleeping in the freezer?"

"She...she will rot if she sleeps outside. If she rots, she will be angry and she will beat me and scold me." Xie Weijie burst into tears, feeling wronged and scared.

"Does she beat you often?" Gu Fang adjusted his sitting position and his tone became much softer.

"When I don't listen, she beats me. When I do poorly on the test, she beats me too. She told me that I should go to college, but I don't want to. I just want her to stop beating me and scolding me, like other mothers do."

"You killed her because she hit you... did you hit her?"

"I didn't want to hit her, but she was so scary. She called me a loser and a wimp. She said if it wasn't for me, she wouldn't have married my dad. If it wasn't for me, she wouldn't even dare to date. I wasn't even good enough and only ranked second in the exam."

Yang Dawei paused with his writing pen, looked up at him in surprise, "I'll get beaten for coming second?" If his son came second, he would wake up laughing in his dreams.

"My mother said that I must get first place in the exam. If I get first place, she will make braised pork, braised spareribs, and fried hairtail for me." Thinking of the delicious food, Xie Weijie showed a warm smile on his face.

Gu Fang was stunned for a moment, his eyes wandering, but soon returned to normal, "So you hit her with the vase?"

"No! I didn't! I just pushed her. I didn't use much force, but she fell down. The vase fell on her head and she bled a lot." Xie Weijie's expression suddenly went crazy. "Blood...blood will dirty the floor. Mom likes cleanliness and she will be angry if the floor is dirty. She said that if you make a mistake you have to accept the punishment. She made a mistake and she must accept the punishment!

I kicked her and hit her. It was her fault and she had to pay the price. But no matter how I hit her, she didn't move, and she didn't get up to clean up.

I have to clean up the blood, and if she wakes up and sees the blood, she will be mad, she will think it was me, and she will beat me.

I used a mop and water to wash it over and over again, but it couldn't be cleaned, and the more I washed, the more dirt there was. I got angry and hit her again. Not only did she not get up, she even lost her voice.

But the blood came from her body and it couldn't flow anymore. I remember seeing on TV that freezing can stop bleeding. I took the money, yes, money. He Linghu always asked me for money. I had no money, so I could only ask my mother. My mother gave me the money and told me to spend it frugally.

He Linghu asked for more and more, and my mother refused to give me any money. She asked me what the money was for, and when I couldn't answer, she beat me and called me a little hooligan, saying that I didn't know how hard she worked to earn money and that I was as heartless as my father.

Haha, how can I be like my dad? My dad died a long time ago and has rotted away.

No, no, I can't let my mother die, I have to buy a refrigerator, no, no, there is no room for her in the refrigerator, I have to buy a freezer, a freezer specifically for ice cream. I bought a freezer and put my mother in it, and the bleeding really stopped, haha.

I cleaned the floor and washed the blood off my mother so that she wouldn't scold me when she woke up. ”

Shen Xingyan felt a chill down her spine when she heard this. She had thought that the bruises on Xie Fang's body were the murderer's revenge, but she hadn't expected it to be like this. I didn't expect that the fatal injury would come in this way. But she thought of another possibility, maybe Xie Fang had suffered a heart attack before that.

Old Chen sighed and groaned.

Gu Fang walked up to Xie Weijie and rolled up his sleeves. The bruises on his arms were crisscrossed, no wonder all the closets were filled with long sleeves and long pants.

Xie Weijie looked at him uneasily, "Officer, can I go home now? My mother will be angry if I go back late."

"You'll stay here for now. I've talked to your mother and she won't be angry."

"But……"

Gu Fang held his shoulders and said, "No buts, I'm a police officer, she has to listen to me."

Xie Weijie let out a long sigh and relaxed completely.

Coming out of the interrogation room, Gu Fang told Yang Dawei, "Go find a psychiatrist and give him an evaluation."

When I looked up, I saw Lao Chen standing with a young girl. The girl was wearing a police uniform, her hair tied behind her head, and her eyes were clear, looking at her without blinking.

The gloom in Gu Fang's eyes disappeared immediately, and a smile appeared on his face, "This must be Xiao Shen."

Shen Xingyan nodded, "Hello, Captain Gu."

"Captain Gu is pretty good at handling cases, right? Follow me and I guarantee you'll be exposed to all kinds of cases. I tell you, the moment we catch a suspect is the most fulfilling moment for us. This sense of accomplishment is different from what you get in the logistics department."

"Captain Gu became a criminal policeman because of this sense of accomplishment?"

Gu Fang paused, "That is."

Shen Xingyan smiled, but her smile clearly told Gu Fang that you are lying to me.

Gu Fang coughed strategically and said, "The transfer order will come down in the next few days, so you should get ready." Then he walked away leisurely.

Shen Xingyan looked at his back and shook her head. She had no intention of exploring the thoughts of her future boss. But she was very happy to be transferred to the Municipal Bureau as a forensic pathologist. She always felt that it was not easy to get into the notes, and if she stayed in the police station, she might never find the answer in her lifetime.

…

Xie Weijie's mental examination revealed that he suffered from depression + mania + paranoia, which were quite serious.

But when Gu Fang caught him, he was still attending class at school, just like a normal person.

Shen Xingyan couldn't help but sigh, but she cared more about the father mentioned by Xie Weijie. He said that his father had died a long time ago. So when Xie Fang took Xie Weijie away, was it because they were divorced or because her husband died?

Gu Fang had the same idea as her and had been investigating these days.

Xie Fang’s husband is Cai Haishan, and his registered residence is Pingyuan City, more than a thousand kilometers away from Nanfu City. Gu Fang issued a joint investigation notice, hoping to ask for assistance from the Pingyuan City police.

More than a week later, news came that Cai Haishan had died eight years ago, which coincided with the time when Xie Fang and her son moved to Nanfu City.

Because it has been so long, we can only guess what happened based on people's fragmentary words.

Cai Haishan is a forest ranger. He is polite to everyone, but once he drinks, he becomes a different person and beats his wife and children to death. It is estimated that after drinking, Cai Haishan beat his wife and children again, so Xie Fang killed him.

Cai Haishan's body was buried in the forest he once guarded. Only a skeleton was left. There was a large knife scar on the bone next to his chest, which suggested that he was killed with a single knife blow.

Gu Fang fell into deep thought holding the case report. Perhaps Xie Weijie's psychology was distorted from the very beginning. He witnessed his mother killing and burying bodies, and was exploited by her day by day, so he subconsciously resisted.

His father's death had already planted the seeds in his heart, so he would follow his example.

How pitiful!

Shen Xingyan was also quite emotional. Fortunately, her parents were open-minded and let her make all the decisions. Thinking about the original owner, she grew up under the oppression of her parents, and even her career planning was influenced by her parents.

Sister Zhang wiped her tears and said, "Poor child, I will definitely be nicer to my Bao'er in the future. I won't force her, hit her, or scold her."

Shen Xingyan leaned over and said, "I heard that your Baoer likes to watch detective suspense movies, but you don't let him."

"It's ridiculous for a girl to watch bloody scenes of fighting and killing all day long!"

Shen Xingyan clicked her tongue twice, "Who said we won't force Baoer anymore?"

“This is different.”

"What's the difference? It's her freedom to like whatever she wants."

"Xiao Shen, you can't think that others should be like you just because you like to be a forensic doctor. My Baoer wants to go to college and work in finance in the future."

"Hey, Sister Zhang, be careful that your Bao'er becomes Xie Weijie."

"Pah, pah, pah, you can't spit out ivory from a dog's mouth."

"I'm really not exaggerating. She's still young now. When she's older, if you continue to force her like this, there's no guarantee she'll do something."

Sister Zhang glared at her, and Shen Xingyan smiled flatteringly, "Think about it carefully, it's a lesson for you."

Sister Zhang lowered her eyes. She knew what she said was unpleasant, but it was reasonable. "I'm really afraid that she will become a police officer."

"What's wrong with being a police officer? You are a police officer yourself, so why can't your children be police officers?"

Sister Zhang sighed and patted Shen Xingyan on the shoulder, "Maybe you are right. I am a police officer myself, so why can't my child be a police officer?" But she suddenly changed the subject, "I heard that your mother was also a police officer, but she ended up doing business. How could she agree to you becoming a police officer?"

Shen Xingyan: ...

"Of course he agreed after I argued with him!"

Sister Zhang laughed out loud.

Old Chen suddenly pushed the door open and came in, smiling, "Xiao Shen, go to Xie's office quickly. Your transfer order has come down."
