Chapter 141 Yun Jie
◎Dad, I was wrong, I know I was wrong◎
As Luo Yihui spoke, every police officer in the interrogation room clenched their fists.
In an age of flourishing laws and advancing civilization, how could such darkness still exist?
An underground killer organization, hidden in Zhu City, has a history of ten years.
From organizational structure, industry practices, how to connect, to how to release information, how to ensure task completion, and timely feedback... every detail has been considered meticulously.
Officer Xiao Zhou, who was in charge of taking notes, was about to break his hand.
Li Mingyang used to be in charge of household registration file management. He took a pen and paper and drew a diagram of the structure of the killer organization called "Dark Night".
Ah Jin is a killer in the killer organization who retired three years ago. This time, he returned to the underworld because his mother was seriously ill and hospitalized and needed money. Because he has been accompanying her in the hospital for many years, he smells like disinfectant; because he drives between Zhu City and Luo County, he inevitably smells like gasoline.
Through these two details, Zhao Xiangwan located him in Zhushi Hospital, and then through special interrogation methods, he finally narrowed the scope of the arrest to Zhushi Tzu Chi Hospital. Cao Guang applied for cooperation with the Zhushi police and set out with the portrait, believing that the killer Ajin would be arrested soon.
After eliminating Luo Yihui as a possible murderer, the person with the greatest motive for murder is Yu Huimin.
The news just came that Yu Huimin will arrive at Luo County Railway Station at 10 o'clock tonight, and he will be greeted by a tight net.
Seeing that Luo Yihui was forced to cooperate with the police and tell the truth, Zhao Xiangwan knew that his mission at the Luo County Public Security Bureau had been completed.
Luo Yihui is the owner of the Jinbihuihuang Nightclub. Even if he is not the killer or the suspect of hiring a hitman, as long as the Zhuhai police intervene, all the pornography, gambling and drug-related incidents in the nightclub will be exposed. He will definitely not be able to escape the crime of harboring and shielding.
What awaits him will be a song called "Tears Behind the Iron Window".
Watching Luo Yihui signing the transcript, Zhao Xiangwan stood up, stretched his arms and legs, looked at his watch and saw it was already 8:30 in the evening, and prepared to leave the interrogation room.
Luo Yihui suddenly called her: "Zhao Xiangwan!"
Zhao Xiangwan stopped and turned to look at Luo Yihui.
Luo Yihui paused for a moment and suddenly said, "Thank you."
Thank you?
Zhao Xiangwan never expected that after he personally sent him to prison, he would actually thank him in return.
Luo Yihui smiled, a shallow smile, but with more sincerity than usual.
"Thank you for arguing with me. No one has ever said so many words to me in one breath, nor has anyone told me that being abandoned by my parents was not my fault, and that I don't have to use their mistakes to punish myself."
Zhao Xiangwan raised his eyebrows and said nothing.
To be honest, the reason why he argued with Luo Yihui was just to let down his guard and get him to speak his mind. Zhao Xiangwan had no intention of educating or helping Luo Yihui, who almost killed Ji Zhao.
Seeing that Zhao Hewan didn't say anything, Luo Yihui smiled even more happily.
[I told you before that I didn't kill him. Do you believe me now?]
【So, I win. 】
[You are right, I won, I am so happy. ]
Zhao Xiangwan glanced at Luo Yihui, pushed open the iron door of the interrogation room, and walked out.
Walking out of the interrogation room, the light from the corridor casts a soft glow on me.
Zhao Xiangwan took a deep breath.
It was really beyond Zhao Xiangwan's expectation that Luo Yihui, a cautious and closed-minded person, would say thank you because he had opened his scars again and again.
Perhaps, there is a wounded child hidden in everyone's heart.
If you can find what this child desires, his heart will open up to you.
Realizing this, Zhao Xiangwan seemed to have some enlightenment.
Cao Guang arranged for someone to send Zhao Xiangwan and Ji Zhao back to the hotel. Before leaving, he shook hands with Zhao Xiangwan and said goodbye: "Thank you very much! If it weren't for you, I don't know how many detours our investigation would have taken this time."
Zhao Xiangwan said humbly, "I just helped a little. You guys are doing all the investigation. I will be back to Xing City tomorrow, waiting to hear your good news."
Although he had been busy all day, Cao Guang was still in high spirits: "Okay! I will definitely contact you if there is any progress."
The wedding was held on the 28th day of the 11th lunar month at the Four Seasons Hotel in Star City.
Zhao Xiangwan, in her wedding dress, looks beautiful and holy.
Ji Zhao, dressed in a white suit, looked like a banished immortal.
Amidst countless blessings, Zhao Xiangwan and Ji Zhao got married.
People from the Xing City Public Security Bureau sat at five large tables, and it was quite lively.
Uninvited police officers from Yao City, Zhu City, Luo County, Kyoto... even sat at two tables, making the police occupy almost half of the entire wedding banquet.
Zhao Dacui's eyes widened, and she said to the brothers Zhao Bowen and Zhao Zhongwu, "Why is the third sister so popular?"
Fan Qiuhan laughed: "This shows that Xiangwan's choice to apply to the Public Security University was a very correct one."
When others toast you, blessings are pouring in.
"A long and happy marriage."
"May you have a son soon."
"When a husband and wife are of one mind, they can cut through metal."
Zhao Xiangwan and Ji Zhao changed into their wedding dresses, and as they toasted at each table, this was their tone of conversation.
"Thank you Officer Zhao for helping us solve a major case."
"Don't rest too long. We'll be waiting for you."
"One week at most. Just let it be a honeymoon for you two."
Zhao Xiangwan and Ji Zhao smiled at each other.
As long as two people are together, whether on vacation or working, it is a happy time.
When they reached the table of the out-of-town police, Cao Guang, who had come to congratulate them in a hurry, picked up his glass and drank it all, saying loudly: "Officer Zhao, Officer Ji, thank you for your help. Now the killer A Jin has been brought to justice, Yu Huimin has confessed all his crimes, and the murderer has been brought to justice. Thank you very much!"
Cao Guang's words made Zhu Feipeng feel itchy.
Zhu Feipeng had heard about Wei Lan's murder before, but he had never had time to inquire about it. When he finally met Cao Guang from Luo County Public Security Bureau, Zhu Feipeng took the opportunity of toasting to come to the table and inquire about the details.
It turns out that Yu Huimin and Wei Lan have long been estranged from each other.
The two may have had feelings for each other at the beginning, but when Wei Lan used her own interests to force her to the throne, Yu Huimin's feelings for her were exhausted.
The relationship between Wei Lan and Zhao Chenyang was not hidden from Yu Huimin, her lover. After reading Zhao Chenyang's story outline, Yu Huimin realized that Wei Lan was going to go solo, and her anger reached its peak.
Jun Yuyi once investigated Wei Lan, and Yu Huimin also did the same.
Wei Lan's sister Wei Qingfang was disfigured and her vocal cords damaged in a fire, and she has refused to see anyone since then. Wei Lan placed her sister in a villa in Kyoto and sent someone to watch over her, which naturally aroused Yu Huimin's suspicion.
Yu Huimin had long known that all of Wei Lan's novels were written by Wei Qingfang, but it didn't matter to him. As long as Wei Qingfang could continue to quietly contribute the pen to Wei Lan, Yu Huimin, as her husband, would be the beneficiary. Not only did he not expose it, he deliberately concealed it for Wei Lan.
However, once Wei Lan decided to break up with him, the situation became different.
Yu Huimin decided to get rid of Wei Lan after the divorce, and then exposed the truth that all her novels were ghostwritten by Wei Qingfang. From then on, he helped Wei Qingfang enter the literary world and firmly occupied the romance novel market under the name of Wei Lan.
If Wei Lan can find Zhao Chenyang to cooperate with, why can’t Yu Huimin do the same?
Therefore, Yu Huimin went to Zhu City in person and met the killer Ajin at the Jinbihuihuang Nightclub. He found someone to impersonate Zhao Chenyang, and after confirming the meeting time with Wei Lan, he left Zhu City and returned to Kyoto.
Yu Huimin's calculations were perfect.
Wei Lan was killed in Luo County. Yu Huimin, who was in Kyoto, had sufficient alibi and would not arouse the police's suspicion at all. Wei Lan had so many enemies. Yu Huimin only needed to put on a sad look, order the police to seize the time to track down the murderer, and say a few sad and angry words to the TV, and said that he would always remember Wei Lan's dream and hoped that readers would work with him to help Wei Lan realize it. This would definitely attract public sympathy and support for him.
At that time, Zhao Chenyang would definitely contact him, and he would take Wei Qingfang to his villa. Zhao Chenyang and Wei Qingfang would join hands to write one fresh and vivid story after another, and Lanyu Publishing House would move towards another glory.
As for Wei Lan, she will become notorious for ghostwriting. When a person dies, it is like a light going out. Who will still remember her era?
Yu Huimin planned everything and waited for news from the killer Ajin.
On the evening of the 11th, Ajin drove to Luo County to scout the area and sat in a bar. Unexpectedly, he met a fool who was drinking and cursing Wei Lan. Ajin found it funny and pitiful. On a whim, he made a joke with Jun Yuyi: If you hate her so much, should you kill her?
Who knew that Jun Yuyi actually agreed and gave him one thousand yuan.
Ajin was originally a cold-blooded killer who was short of money, so he took the money and left.
On the 12th, Ajin walked into the Furong Hotel, went up to the third floor, knocked on the door of room 301, and after confirming that the other person was Wei Lan, he stabbed the person in the throat and hurriedly left from the stairwell.
Ah Jin had not expected that Zhou Haoman was sitting in the stairwell, and he had not expected Jun Yuyi to turn himself in. He had been a killer for so many years, and his actions were swift and decisive, but he had failed miserably in Luo County.
Yu Huimin never expected that when the Blue Man was killed in Luo County, the police would actually suspect him who was far away in Kyoto.
The alibi he had worked so hard to come up with was of no use at all.
Hired murder is the most difficult type of murder to detect.
However, due to Luo Yihui's carelessness, Zhao Xiangwan caught him and quickly solved the murder case.
Hearing this, Zhu Feipeng and other police officers sighed: The net of justice is vast and long, and nothing can escape it.
Immediately afterwards, someone from the Yao City Public Security Bureau said something.
"If Officer Zhao takes action, it must be a major case."
As soon as these words were spoken, they immediately resonated.
"Yes, yes, yes. That last case was a big thanks to Officer Zhao."
“可不是,要不是有趙警官審出關鍵線索,到現在還是一樁懸案。”
“牽扯五個城市,十幾條人命,你說案子大不大?”
京都的、瑤市的、珠市的、羅縣的……多地警方突然意識到一個問題。
——既然趙向晚與季昭的能力如此卓絕,只守在一個公安局是不是有點屈才了?
省廳苗慧立馬發言:“對,所以他倆現在是省廳刑偵專家。”
所有警方代表都眼睛一亮。
“那你的意思是,我們要是有偵破不了的案子,可以請專家出馬?”
“對啊,季昭畫像的本事那麽厲害,殺手阿金只是一個背影都能讓人一眼認出來。趙向晚審訊室裏發威,讓嫌疑人乖乖說出真相。這夫妻倆,是我們公安系統的寶貝啊,光是守在星市公安局多浪費!”
“沒錯!以後我們要是有麻煩案子,就往你省廳借調啊。”
“放心放心,功勞不會少,獎金也不會少,差旅補助絕對按系統內最高标準。”
于是,在趙向晚與季昭的婚禮現場,他倆被這一幫子公安系統的領導安排得明明白白,從此開啓了在各地奔波的“美好”日子。
1996年3月。
蜜月度完,趙向晚與季昭回到重案一組。
兩人一進辦公室,就響起掌聲一片。
“新婚快樂~”
“歡迎回到工作崗位!”
“案子一大堆,就等你倆喽……”
趙向晚與季昭身穿制服,肩并肩而立,眉梢眼底俱是甜甜的戀愛氣息,讓人一看就知道小兩口恩愛和諧。
趙向晚說:“有什麽案子?說來聽聽。”
朱飛鵬哈哈一笑:“我就猜你閑不住。”
祝康向她彙報:“有一樁發生在瑤市金橋區的虐童案,瑤市公安局剛剛給我們發來協查申請,就等你們倆過來接手。聽說是鄰居報的警,七、八歲的女孩,孩子身體并沒有受多少傷,但被囚禁了幾天,整個人精神狀态很差。案件似乎并不複雜,可恨的是那個畜生不肯承認。瑤市公安局的魏局、雷淩和許局通過電話,知道今天你和季昭回來,他們等下應該就會過來。”
“虐童案?”
趙向晚一聽,眉頭立刻緊鎖。
自從偵破衛麗娜拐賣女童一案之後,湘省兒童失蹤案日漸減少。媒體報道也強調過兒童是祖國的花朵,殘害兒童者,死罪難逃。
在這樣的情況下,竟然還有人頂風作案?
趙向晚、季昭在羅縣一戰成名,婚禮上一堆警察聚在一起商量,都認為要好好發揮趙向晚與季昭的專家能力,小案子自己處理,疑難案件就找他倆協辦。
瑤市魏良複局長最積極,第一時間送過來一個案子。
虐童案最複雜的,便是兒童長期處于被虐待的環境下,內心極其封閉,不好交流。再加上施暴對方多是家長,這種血緣依賴讓孩子會選擇隐忍。尤其像這個案子,屬于精神虐待,傷殘性質不好定性,也難怪瑤市警方要找趙向晚求助。
魏良複、雷淩等下就會過來與星市重案一組的人會合,這說明他們非常頭疼這個案件,應該是希望趙向晚能夠發揮她“讀心”的特長,将罪犯繩之于法。
高廣強退休之後,重案一組裏都是血氣方剛的年輕人。
劉良駒與朱飛鵬都是為人父的,聽到有人虐待兒童頓時恨得牙癢癢:“自己的女兒也舍得虐待?不得好死!”
周如蘭咬着牙,氣憤地說:“囚禁虐待?可惡!”
艾輝、黃元德已經有了女友,今年計劃結婚,幸福的人兒最看不得這類案子,搖頭罵了一句:“無恥!敗類!”
“篤篤!”
一群人正在發表觀點,魏良複與雷淩站在重案組的門口,象征性敲了敲門。
趙向晚迎上前,握手寒暄。
魏良複說:“這一次要麻煩你了。”
趙向晚微笑:“沒事。”反正你們在婚禮上就把我和季昭安排好,籌劃着有疑難案件就申請專家援助。
魏良複情商很高,不僅給重案組每一個成員帶來了瑤市特産,還送給趙向晚一面錦旗:“瑤市兒童拐賣案偵破,多虧了你們的大力協助,這是家長們送來的錦旗,表達他們對你的感謝。”
要不是有趙向晚與季昭的參與,胡蝶不知道什麽時候才能抓住。那些被拐賣的兒童,也沒辦法回到父母身邊。
趙向晚接過錦旗,展開來挂在牆上。
“警界翹楚破案神速”八個大字閃着金光。
雖說懲惡揚善是警察職責,趙向晚做本職工作不求表揚。但能夠被大家記住,給予正向反饋,還是很有成就感的。
閑話少敘,步入正題。
雷淩取出卷宗,擺在會議桌上。
朱飛鵬推出小黑板,示意雷淩上前來講。
雷淩沒有推辭,走到小黑板旁,拿起粉筆在上面寫下兩個名字。
雲潔、雲德厚。
随着雷淩的講述,案件逐漸清晰地呈現在大家面前。
雲潔,1987年出生,今年九歲,讀上學三年級。
父親雲德厚,1962年出生,今年三十四歲,瑤市金橋區郵局的業務員。
母親謝琳,1963年出生,今年三十三歲,原本在瑤市金橋區小學當英語老師,後來出國留學,嫁給M國人,定居海外。
雲潔三歲的時候,謝琳便與雲德厚辦理離婚,頭也不回地出國,再沒有回來。這麽多年來,雲潔與父親相依為命,住在郵局的老宿舍樓裏。
據鄰居們說,雲潔性格內向,不太愛說話。也許因為從小就失去媽媽的緣故,她很依戀父親,非常聽話,惹人憐愛,小區裏的老頭老太太看着她長大,都非常喜歡她。
三月天氣寒冷,小學放寒假,白天雲德厚上班的時候,雲潔便在家裏寫作業,有時候會跟着小區裏的小朋友一起出去玩。
上周,鄰居們有幾天沒有見到雲潔,覺得奇怪,便問雲德厚。
雲德厚說:“孩子這兩天有點不舒服,在家睡覺呢。”
鄰居們忙表達關心:“哪裏不舒服?是不是受涼了?我煮點姜湯過來,你喂給潔潔喝。”
雲德厚拒絕了。
住在對面的方奶奶很執着,晚上七點多煮了姜湯,主動敲開雲德厚家的門。
門一開,雲德厚眉毛皺得很緊:“什麽事?”
方奶奶好奇地往屋裏張望了一下:“潔潔呢?”
雲德厚沒好氣地說了一句:“睡了。”
方奶奶問:“這麽早就睡了?是不是病得很厲害?發燒沒有,你得送她上醫院看看啊。”
雲德厚的目光有些躲閃:“多謝關心,沒事。”
方奶奶要将手中姜湯送給他,卻被雲德厚拒絕。
方奶奶覺得沒意思,正要離開,忽然聽到屋子裏有響動,是那種微弱的、像貓咪一樣的“嘤嘤”聲。
不知道為什麽,方奶奶的心裏咯噔一下,問:“屋子裏什麽聲音?”
雲德厚作勢要關門:“沒什麽。”
方奶奶本來就擔心潔潔,現在看雲德厚躲躲閃閃,便拿手抵住門,非要見見孩子,說大男人看孩子不細心,說不定潔潔病得重了他不知道,還是讓她看一眼才好。
雲德厚吼了她一句:“我的孩子,我自己知道輕重,你別多管閑事!”說完,強行關上了門。
方奶奶是郵局的退休職工,也算得上是看着雲德厚大專畢業分配過來,然後結婚生子的老資格。被雲德厚這麽冷漠強硬對待,心裏很不是滋味。
等到第二天,雲德厚上班去了,方奶奶再一次來到對門,試探着敲了敲門。
門裏傳來微弱的響動。
方奶奶隔着門開始喊:“潔潔,潔潔。”
裏頭傳來“梆!梆!”的聲音。
方奶奶的一顆心縮成一團,趕緊叫來幾個老人商量:“怎麽辦?潔潔只怕是病是很嚴重。我好像聽到屋子裏有響動,可是潔潔沒有出來開門。”
幾個老人都是看着潔潔長大的,也非常擔憂。
其中一個人提議:“要不,報警吧?”
馬上就有人反對:“昨天小方說了,潔潔生病在家裏休息。我們報警會不會對小方不好?他會不會生氣?”
一個人附和:“對啊,咱們是不是有點多管閑事?”
最後還是方奶奶拍了板:“有困難,找警察。沒事最好,萬一有事呢?”
聽到轄區老人報警,說室內有兒童病重需要救助,金橋區派出所的人迅速出警,與雲德厚取得聯系,讓他開了門。
好在出警的女警察非常負責,盯着雲德厚的一舉一動,要求必須看到孩子才能離開。
雲德厚只得冷着臉掏出鑰匙,打開緊緊鎖着的北面卧室門,嘴裏解釋着:“孩子不好好寫寒假作業,我訓了她幾句,她就和我犟嘴,我一生氣就關了她兩天。好了,現在你們看到她了,可以回去了。”
女警氣得牙癢癢,但到底雲德厚是孩子的父親,他想要懲罰孩子,警察也只能批評教育,于是喝斥道:“就算孩子不聽話,你也要好好和她說。怎麽能夠這樣虐待她?”
Facing the police, Yun Dehou could only smile and say, "Yes, yes, I was wrong. Police comrade, this is not abuse, right? I just locked her up for two days. Thank you for your concern, neighbors. I will let the child change her clothes and go out to play, okay?"
When he said "Thank you, neighbors, for your concern," Yun Dehou deliberately emphasized his tone to express his dissatisfaction.
The door opened and a foul smell of urine hit my face.
The windows were shut tightly and the thick dark curtains were drawn, making the room very dark.
I pressed the switch, but the light in the cabin didn't come on.
It was a very cold day and there was only a thin quilt on the bed, which didn't look very clean.
Jiejie curled up at the head of the bed, hugging the quilt and shivering.
The "bang! bang!" sound that Grandma Fang heard was the sound of Jiejie banging her head against the wooden board of the bed.
Seeing this scene, Grandma Fang's heart was broken. She pushed Yun Dehou aside and rushed into the house, hugging Yun Jie, who was mumbling with a dull look in her eyes. Yun Jie's body was as light as a ball of straw, and her head drooped on Grandma Fang's shoulder. At this time, Grandma Fang finally heard clearly what she was mumbling.
"Dad, I was wrong. I know I was wrong."
Grandma Fang burst into tears and walked out holding Yun Jie. Yun Dehou reached out to stop her, but was grabbed by the female police officer: "Come back to the police station with us for investigation. We suspect you of child abuse!"
Yun Jie was taken to the hospital for examination. Fortunately, she had no other injuries except malnutrition due to hunger for three days. However, she was in a very bad mental state. She was afraid of light and loud noises, hid under the quilt and sobbed, saying "Dad, I was wrong" all the time, like a wounded little beast.
After Yun Dehou was taken to the police station, he refused to admit that he had abused his daughter. He kept saying that it was not easy for him to raise a woman alone. Now that his daughter has grown up and is not studying hard, the punishment he took may be a bit extreme, but his intention is also for the good of the child.
He also said that he has not remarried since his divorce from Xie Lin because he wanted to raise his daughter and didn't want anyone to treat her badly.
At this point, Lei Ling's eyes stayed on Zhao Xiangwan, and he said sincerely, "As soon as the child abuse case happened, our bureau took it very seriously. Yun Jie is currently receiving psychological treatment, but because Yun Dehou refused to admit the abuse, we visited the surrounding houses and neighbors, and everyone also said that Yun Dehou is dedicated to his job and usually cares for children. I have never seen him beat the children, nor did he scold the children loudly outside. Based on what Grandma Fang and others said, it is probably difficult to establish the crime of abuse."
Wei Liangfu added: "The child is now completely in a state of isolation. She won't say anything the police ask her. She just keeps saying 'Dad, I was wrong.' Therefore, we would like to ask for your support and communicate with the child psychologically to see if you can help her get out of her current state of isolation."
Lei Ling said in a low voice: "Officer Zhao, I also have a ten-year-old daughter, and I can't bear to see her suffer. We all know that you have made contributions in the Wei Lina case and paid attention to child psychological counseling. So... please help this poor child Yun Jie."
