Chapter 64 Gu Wenjiao
◎If you want to hate, hate to the end; if you want to cut off, cut off completely! ◎
Frame after frame of the images flashed through Gu Wenjiao's mind.
This afternoon, two female police officers from the serious crime squad came to her to investigate the details of the tragic case.
At first, Fan Hongwei was not mentioned at all. It was not until he saw the scars on her hands and asked about Fan Hongwei's name that Zhao Xiangwan began to ask about everything about Fan Hongwei.
Zhao Xiangwan asked her how she and Fan Hongwei knew each other, what was his purpose in deliberately approaching her, and also asked about Fan Hongwei's history of making a fortune, and even encouraged her to divorce.
I went to work in the afternoon and they came over again.
What did they ask? All about Fan Hongwei.
They asked why Fan Hongwei accompanied her to the police station every month to inquire about the case, why he resigned from the transportation company, whether he had mentioned Cai Chang's name, and who his best friend was besides Cao Deren!
Officer Huang Yi just said that the serious crime squad investigates major and important cases!
If Fan Hongwei had committed an economic crime, the serious crime squad would not have paid any attention to it.
Zhao Xiangwan and the others would never ask these questions for no reason.
What does this mean?
This shows that Fan Hongwei committed a serious crime!
Why did you ask Fan Hongwei if he mentioned Tsai Chang's name? He was the police officer who lost his gun and died tragically before the tragic case.
Why did you ask Fan Hongwei if he had any other followers besides Cao Deren? There were two people who killed the police, but there were three people who committed the tragic crime of wiping out the whole family!
Everything points to a fact that Gu Wenjiao is absolutely unwilling to accept.
——The police suspected that Fan Hongwei was the murderer of his mother Zhou Jinfeng!
Was it him? Was it him who killed my mother?
At that moment, the world was spinning and Gu Wenjiao didn't know where she was.
The murderer that he had been searching for for ten years could actually be his bedmate?!
Yes, he had practiced martial arts, was young, was 172cm tall, weighed 135kg, and wore a shoe size of 41—all the characteristics were met.
Cao Deren and Ruan Wu are accomplices.
Why did Ruan Wu disappear?
Because he was the one who told Fan Hongwei that a fingerprint was left on the door frame in the tragic case.
Why did Fan Hongwei go to such lengths to marry her?
Because she was the only one who was constantly pursuing the murderer and had close contact with the police officers at the police station. As long as there was any movement, he would be the first person to know the news.
Ruan Wu, wasn't it you who leaked the information and reported it?
Why did he marry her but refuse to care for her, beat her when he was drunk, and would not stop until he saw her surrendering to him?
Because he was perverted, because he enjoyed the thrill of conquest, because he felt extremely fulfilled watching her desperately searching for the murderer while the murderer continued to torture her and made her give birth to a son.
The extreme pain surged up like a tide, suffocating Gu Wenjiao. She felt as if her throat was blocked by cement, unable to make a sound or breathe in a breath.
Everything went dark before her eyes, and Gu Wenjiao felt like she was going to suffocate to death.
She raised her hands tremblingly and began to grab her throat desperately.
No! I can't die! I still want to avenge my mother!
I have to get rid of the cement block blocking my throat. I have to breathe air!
"Hiss—hiss—"
A strange growl came, and Huang Yi, who was standing next to Gu Wenjiao, was startled. He turned his head and looked at her. His expression suddenly changed. He quickly stepped forward and grabbed Gu Wenjiao's hands: "What are you doing?"
Gu Wenjiao's neck was covered with bloody scratches from fingernails, some of which were so deep that the flesh was exposed. However, Gu Wenjiao seemed to feel no pain at all and was still scratching desperately.
Gu Wenjiao's hands were controlled by Huang Yi, and she began to struggle desperately.
[Don't hold me, don't care about me! I want to breathe, I want to live! I want revenge! ]
She thought she was screaming desperately, but in fact only a few meaningless hisses came out of her throat.
Huang Yi't knew what was wrong with her, and he shouted in fear: "Gu Wenjiao! What are you doing? Are you crazy?"
The movement here started led Zhao Xiangwan, and he ran over quickly.
Xu Songling moved faster than Zhao Xiangwan, and went up to hold Gu Wenjiao down. He noticed that her eyes were dimming, but his strength was extraordinary: "Something is wrong, she needs a sedative."
Zhao Xiangwan said calmly: "Knock her out."
Huang Yi couldn't believe his ears: "What?"
Unexpectedly, as soon as Zhao Xiangwan finished speaking, Xu Songling put his palm together and hit Gu Wenjiao on the back of the neck.
Gu Wenjiao closed her eyes and fainted.
Huang Yi held up Gu Wenjiao's body as she leaned back, and looked at Xu Songling with his mouth wide open: "Xu, Captain Xu?"
Zhao Xiangwan did not explain, but only said to him: "Send her to the hospital and make sure to give her a sedative."
Alas! I didn't expect Gu Wenjiao to be so smart. She quickly connected all of this and discovered the truth. I just hope that once she wakes up, her mood will be a little more stable.
Huang Yi hesitated for a moment, and Xu Songling shouted, "Go!"
Huang Yi replied: "Yes!"
He held her horizontally in his arms and rushed towards the hospital. Gu Wenjiao was less than 1.6 meters tall and weighed less than 90 kilograms. She looked light and fluttery in his arms. Thinking that she had been chasing the murderer for the past ten years, Huang Yi also felt sympathy for her.
The police are most afraid of encountering such a persistent victim's family. Whenever Huang Yi sees her running to ask questions and returning disappointed, he feels guilty. Although he was not the police officer who investigated the case, Gu Wenjiao's behavior really makes him feel guilty.
I always feel that it is because of my failure in doing my job that I disappoint her again and again.
Xu Songling asked Zhao Xiangwan: "She knew? How did she know?"
Zhao Xiangwan sighed, "I didn't tell her. But she has been obsessed with her mother's murder for ten years. How could she not notice what our serious crime team did today? It's also my fault. I asked her too many questions about Fan Hongwei, so she became alert."
Xu Songling frowned and looked at her, lowering his voice and said, "Are you sure it was Fan Hongwei who did it? We have no evidence, we are just guessing, why is she reacting so strongly?"
Zhao Xiangwan felt a pang of sadness in his heart: "She probably knows more about this case than anyone in our team. With just a little clue, she can guess the result. Judging from her reaction, I guess... this is true!"
Xu Songling's eyes widened suddenly, and he blurted out a curse: "Fuck!"
Zhao Xiangwan said, "Captain Xu, I'm afraid we'll have to work overtime today. We need to find evidence before Fan Hongwei is discharged from the hospital."
Xu Songling nodded: "Okay! All members of the serious crime squad will return." The big case is about to be solved, and it is time to get ready. Who would have the mood to rest?
--
At nine o'clock in the evening, the office of the Serious Crime Unit was brightly lit.
Zhu Feipeng and He Mingyu, who were guarding Fan Hongwei and Cao Deren in the hospital, also rushed back: "He's in the operating room under general anesthesia. Doctor Qiao said we can go back before 12 o'clock."
Zhao Xiangwan asked: "How is the situation?"
He Mingyu felt relieved: "When they were sent to the hospital, they were already in a deep coma. They looked scary. The eyes are one of the most vulnerable parts of the human body. With such sharp glass piercing them, Fan Hongwei's left eye and Cao Deren's right eye both need to undergo eye removal surgery. One eye will be blinded for sure. It depends on whether the nerves are damaged and whether there will be other effects."
Ai Hui looked Ji Zhao up and down, a little unconvinced: "He doesn't look like he has practiced martial arts before, how could he beat Fan Hongwei?"
Ji Zhao was neither anxious nor annoyed. He just sat in his seat and said nothing.
Liu Liangju was a little older and more mature. He frowned and asked Xu Songling, "Captain Xu, will Ji Zhao be okay? Logically, he should be detained at the police station. After all, he blinded Fan Hongwei and Cao Deren in public. If Ji Jinmao hadn't persuaded Director Peng to act as a guarantor..."
Xu Songling said: "Ji Zhao's situation is special, and the case is also special. Special matters should be handled specially. Don't worry about this."
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Zhu Peng rushed towards Ji Zhao and quietly raised his thumb: "Brother, I didn't expect you to be so secretive." He was really ruthless. Most people use dirty tricks in a fight, just poking eyes, poking crotches, and stepping on feet. Who would be like Ji Zhao, poking his eyes with a bottle?
The little cutie who needed care suddenly turned into a big tiger, and everyone found it a little hard to adapt.
Zhao Xiangwan didn't want everyone to pay too much attention to Ji Zhao, so he took the initiative to change the topic: "After observing Fan Hongwei and Cao Deren closely, I have more confidence in my previous judgment. In addition, there is a new situation that I want to report to everyone."
Everyone was successfully attracted by Zhao Xiangwan's words, and they all looked at her: "You say."
Zhao Xiangwan walked to the small blackboard.
On the small blackboard, there is still the timeline of Fan Hongwei written this afternoon, in which the two names of Fan Hongwei and Yang Xugang are circled and connected by a line.
Zhao Xiangwan picked up the chalk and wrote a new name on it: Ruan Wu.
"This man is Fan Hongwei's younger brother. We used to have a very good relationship."
Hearing this, He Mingyu also remembered: "Yes, when we investigated Gu Wenjiao this afternoon, Xiang Wan asked her the name of Fan Hongwei's younger brother. I remember Xiang Wan asked: Besides Cao Deren, who else is there? Gu Wenjiao said this name."
Zhao Xiangwan nodded: "This man was once Fan Hongwei's younger brother, but later disappeared. Gu Wenjiao didn't care, but I noticed it. Do you remember that Cai Chang was murdered by two people, one with a hammer and the other with a sharp knife."
"Yes, remember, two."
"But there are three people involved in the tragic murder of the Third Hospital. If Fan Hongwei and Cao Deren were the ones who killed Cai Chang, then who is the other accomplice in the tragic murder?"
Zhu Feipeng responded the fastest: "Ruan Wu!"
Zhao Xiangwan circled Ruan Wu's name and said, "Yes! This person is their accomplice. So the question is, since Ruan Wu committed a big crime with them, where is he now?"
He Mingyu said: "Are you scared? Are you running away?"
Zhao Xiangwan shook his head: "No. He committed the murder in May 1982, but he stayed with Fan Hongwei until the second half of 1986, when he disappeared. By then, Gu Wenjiao and Fan Hongwei had married and had children."
Huang Yuande was relatively cautious and frowned, "Are you sure he disappeared? Maybe he has a better development?"
Zhao Xiangwan said: "I met Huang Yi from Wufu Road today. He said that in October 1986, someone from Ruan Wu's family reported him to the police and filed a missing person case, but he has not been found yet."
No one could sit still.
A perfectly healthy adult is missing? Why is he missing? He must have been killed by his accomplices!
Why kill Nguyen Vu?
The serious crime squad began to have a brain storm.
"Is it an uneven distribution?"
"That shouldn't be the case. If the spoils were not distributed evenly and Nguyen Vu was making a fuss, he would probably have died in 1982. Their relationship wouldn't have been so good that even Gu Wenjiao would know about it."
"Then... is it possible that Ruan Wu became more and more afraid afterward and wanted to surrender himself, so Fan Hongwei and his men took the initiative to attack him?"
"It is possible, but four years have passed. In May 1986, Fan Hongwei was formally appointed and brought Cao Deren and Ruan Wu to the Demolition Office of the Urban Construction Bureau. He was in high spirits at that time and would not have thought of surrendering at that time."
At this point in the discussion, everyone found it unbelievable. Everyone looked at each other, and the scene suddenly became quiet.
He Mingyu suddenly cried out in surprise and stood up from behind the conference table, her face flushed red with anger: "Could it be that Gu Wenjiao provided some important information that forced Fan Hongwei and the others to kill Ruan Wu?"
"Dog stuff!"
He Mingyu, who was always gentle, could not help but pound the table and cursed, "We discussed this last time. The reason why Fan Hongwei married Gu Wenjiao was to find out the latest police news. Could it be that Gu Wenjiao knew something and told Fan Hongwei inadvertently? Then, the speaker was unintentional, but the listener took it to heart, so Fan Hongwei had the intention to kill her?"
Zhao Xiangwan nodded at her, his expression looking a little unhappy.
"Yes, I guess so. Well, then the question is, what important clues are there that we don't know, but Fan Hongwei knows very well and has accurately locked onto Ruan Wu?"
At this point, everyone familiar with the case called out.
"Fingerprints!"
"Fingerprints on the door frame!"
"Half of the fingerprint of the right index finger."
"The fingerprints were left by Ruan Wu."
A chill came over us. It was July, the hottest day in the world, the fan was whirring, and the sweat on our backs hadn't dried up yet, but we all felt the chill.
How could there be such a bold, cunning, rampant and shameless suspect in this world!
First, no one dares to kill the police or steal their guns;
Second, no one would dare to stay there after killing a police officer and continue to commit crimes with a gun three months later;
Third, no one would intentionally approach the victim's daughter, marry her and have children with her after killing someone.
Fourth, no one would have thought of using this method of obtaining information to successfully eliminate the hidden danger.
Most people are guilty of committing crimes and killing people, and would run away without a trace at the slightest sign of trouble. However, Fan Hongwei not only stayed in Xing City, but also joined the Urban Construction Bureau openly and became a national cadre with peace of mind!
Gao Guangqiang slammed the table hard: "If this man is not killed, it will not be enough to appease the anger of the people!"
When Xu Songling heard this, he once again marveled at Zhao Xiangwan's meticulous thinking and bold reasoning ability.
If Zhao Xiangwan's amazing observation skills during the interrogation process and her use of micro-expression behavioral theory to gradually uncover the truth had already astonished everyone, then her performance now made Xu Songling believe even more: This is a criminal investigation genius! She must be well protected!
Xu Songling stood next to the small blackboard and pointed at Ruan Wu's name: "Fan Hongwei is afraid of being exposed, that is our breakthrough point!"
Zhu Feipeng was the first to jump up: "Right! Fan Gou thinks he can destroy the evidence by killing someone? Don't even think about it!"
As soon as the name Fan Gou came out, it was immediately accepted by everyone.
"Fan Gou was guilty of his crime, so he must have left traces after killing Ruan Wu. Let's start our investigation from there."
"Why should we be afraid of a dead person? The fingerprints are still there. As long as someone in Nguyen Wu's family still has Nguyen Wu's daily necessities, we can take his fingerprints."
"Fan Gou thinks he is smart and uses Gu Wenjiao to get information. Bah!"
"So what if he has strong anti-detection capabilities? Fan Gou doesn't understand criminal investigation techniques at all."
Xu Songling acted decisively and began to direct the operation.
"Zhu Feipeng, He Mingyu, you two continue to watch over the hospital, and don't let Fan and Cao escape. Although they can be anesthetized in the hospital, no one treats them as prisoners and won't restrict their movements. If they really want to run, the medical staff won't stop them. You two just keep a close eye on them and don't let them leave!"
Zhu Feipeng and He Mingyu stood still: "Yes!"
"Zhu Kang, Huang Yuande, go to Wufulu Police Station to learn all the details of Ruan Wu's missing case."
Zhu Kang and Huang Yuande stood still: "Yes!"
"Ai Hui, Liu Liangju, go to Ruan Wu's home to understand the situation and collect fingerprints."
Ai Hui and Liu Liangju stood still: "Yes!"
"Xiang Wan, you and Ji Zhao are responsible for accompanying Gu Wenjiao and paying attention to her mental state. I am worried that she will suffer from severe psychological trauma and do something extreme."
Her husband was a murderer who killed his mother. Most women simply cannot bear such great pain. Just now, Gu Wenjiao's mental state was not right in the restaurant, and Xu Songling had to knock her unconscious. But the pain did not disappear, and she still needed psychological counseling.
Zhao Xiangwan nodded: "Okay."
Gao Guangqiang saw that everyone had a task, but he hadn't been assigned any yet, so he was a little anxious: "Captain Xu, what about me?"
The case of Tsai Chang's murder finally came to light, and Gao Guangqiang was more anxious than anyone else. Even though he knew that Tsai Chang had done something illegal, his crime was not punishable by death. The person who killed him deserved to die!
Xu Songling glanced at him and said, "Lao Gao, you are familiar with the people in the Legal Department. You will be responsible for restarting the case investigation procedure."
Gao Guangqiang was a little reluctant. The formalities could be handled in minutes. How could it be compared to the sense of accomplishment of participating in a case investigation?
Zhao Xiangwan suddenly thought of something, and his eyes sparkled: "Officer Gao, aren't you familiar with the people from the Serious Crime Unit 3?"
Gao Guangqiang patted his chest and said, "Yes, I came from the Serious Crime Unit 3."
Zhao Xiangwan said: "Regarding the case of the body dumped in the reservoir, I have a bold idea, I don't know..."
Gao Guangqiang didn't know what she was thinking, but because the case had come to this point entirely because of Zhao Xiangwan's bold idea, he didn't wait for her to finish and urged her, "Just go ahead." Young people are smart and energetic, and they should be encouraged.
Zhao Xiangwan narrowed his eyes slightly, and a cold light flashed across them: "Do you remember the time in the hot pot restaurant when Fan Hongwei and Cao Deren made fun of Ji Zhao, and Cao Deren even came over to touch his face?"
Everyone wanted to laugh but didn't dare to. They all kept their mouths shut and nodded.
"Later, in a small restaurant across from the Provincial Third Hospital, I pushed down the beer crate and revealed myself. When Fan Hongwei saw us, he immediately showed his interest in Ji Zhao. He came over with a beer and wanted to share the table with us. He asked Ji Zhao's name again in an almost teasing tone."
Ji Zhao heard Zhao Xiangwan calling his name and looked up at her.
【You called me? What's the matter? 】
Ji Zhao's unique clear young voice echoed in his mind. Zhao Xiangwan waved his hand at him and said, "I was talking to them about what happened in the restaurant. I didn't call you."
【oh.】
The little skylark hung his head, feeling a little lost.
Zhao Xiangwan asked him, "Why did you suddenly attack me in the restaurant?"
You are bleeding.
"Anything else?"
[His hand touched me. My dad once said that I can resist any touch that makes me uncomfortable.]
Zhao Xiangwan understood.
Ji Jinmao's fatherly love is like a mountain, and he really has good intentions. Ji Zhao suffers from autism and cannot express himself normally. He is also good-looking and easily harassed, so Ji Jinmao finds someone to teach him self-defense skills.
Out of concern that Ji Zhao might hurt someone, Ji Jinmao even prepared a team of lawyers.
However, even Ji Jinmao himself probably did not expect that Ji Zhao had such a strong learning ability that he could even use self-defense skills to fight against a ferocious man like Fan Hongwei.
Zhao Xiangwan nodded to Ji Zhao: "Let's do it this way, it's good."
Ji Zhao made eye contact with her and confirmed that Zhao Xiangwan was not unhappy, and finally felt relieved.
Zhao Xiangwan looked at Gao Guangqiang and brought the topic back to the reservoir dumping case.
"From their reactions, I concluded that Fan Gou and Cao Gou were probably homosexuals, and were deeply involved in this area. They must have done many evil things, but they didn't make it public because the victims wanted to save face."
Gao Guangqiang still didn't understand, but Xu Songling was the captain of the criminal investigation team and was well aware of the progress of the reservoir dumping case. He quickly grasped the key point: "You suspect... that Fan and Cao did it again?"
Zhao Xiangwan nodded.
Gao Guangqiang has been dealing with the murder of Cai Chang all day and has not paid attention to the body dumping case. Hearing this, he was very confused: "Fan Gou and Cao Gou are homosexuals. What is the connection between them and the body dumping case?"
Xu Songling glanced at him and explained, "The results of the forensic autopsy are out. The deceased was between 19 and 21 years old. There were lacerations on her anus and male semen in her body. It is obvious that she had been sexually abused before her death."
Huh? Huh? Huh?
Even after years in the criminal investigation field, people were still amazed.
Sexually abuse men?
dog!
Fan dog! Cao dog!
Zhao Xiangwan's face was indifferent, without any expression: "In our Xing City, there is such a blatant homosexuality, a man was tortured to death and the body was sunk in the reservoir, and it happens to be in the jurisdiction of the Wufulu Police Station..."
Gao Guangqiang understood what Zhao Xiangwan said, and his eyes widened: "Although your suspicion is bold, it is very likely. I will contact Liang Yuankai from Group 3 and take blood samples for DNA testing while the two dogs are undergoing surgery in the hospital!"
After making all the arrangements, Zhao Xiangwan, Ji Zhao, He Mingyu and Zhu Feipeng drove to the Third Provincial Hospital.
The night wind is like water and the city lights are shining brightly.
Children were playing and making noises on the roadside, running around with water guns and occasionally shouting with joy.
Although there are evils hidden in the dark corners, it is undeniable that this is still a beautiful city.
The lights in the operating room were still on. Zhu Feipeng and He Mingyu were standing in the corridor, waiting for Fan and Cao to come out.
Zhao Xiangwan found Gu Wenjiao's bed.
Because she was a hospital employee and grew up in the Third Hospital, Huang Yi sent the unconscious Gu Wenjiao to the emergency department. After hearing about her condition, the doctor immediately arranged for Gu Wenjiao to be admitted to the intensive care unit and used sedatives.
Gu Wenjiao lay on the hospital bed, breathing steadily and with wrinkled brows. Even though she was unconscious, she was still in pain.
Zhao Xiangwan sighed, dragged a chair and sat down, stretched out his left hand and gently stroked her brow.
Zhao Xiangwan's left hand had just smoothed out Gu Wenjiao's frown, but it wrinkled again in an instant.
The ward was very quiet. The "hiss...hiss..." sound of the fluorescent light could be heard. Gu Wenjiao suddenly began to moan.
Zhao Xiangwan leaned close to her lips and heard her mumbling: "Mom, Mom, Mom."
Hearing the calls again and again, Zhao Xiangwan felt a lump in his throat and almost burst into tears.
Zhao Xiangwan lacked maternal love since childhood, and countless times in his dreams he imagined himself being held in his mother's arms, caressing and protecting her tenderly.
Even though her adoptive mother Qian Shufen and biological mother Wei Meihua disappointed her, her first reaction when she was sad was still to hug her arms, curl herself up into a ball, and unconsciously call for her mother.
Everyone's attachment to their mother is formed in the womb and is ingrained in their bones.
Even if the mother-daughter relationship is not good, losing the mother will still be sad.
What's more, what about Gu Wenjiao, who has had a good relationship with her mother since childhood and can watch TV and chat with her mother, and is very close to her?
Watching my mother die in front of me, unable to stop her, is a heart-wrenching pain that I am afraid will never heal in my lifetime.
Ji Zhao sensed Zhao Xiangwan's low mood and gently held her right hand.
【Don’t be afraid, I’m here. 】
Zhao Xiangwan turned his head to look at Ji Zhao. For some reason, he suddenly felt a little envious of him.
Although Ji Zhao has autism and refuses to communicate with others, he has a pair of very, very good parents. Ji Jinmao loves him dearly, teaches him self-defense and painting, and strives to tap his potential. After meeting Zhao Xiangwan, who has the ability to read minds, he lowers himself to please her and reluctantly sends Ji Zhao to the serious crime unit. All of this is to sincerely plan for Ji Zhao's future.
Even if Ji Jinmao misjudged Luo Yihui, it cannot be denied that he cultivated Luo Yihui with all his heart and sent him abroad to study psychology. He also wanted to cultivate confidants for Ji Zhao and ensure that there would be someone who sincerely cared about Ji Zhao after his death.
Although I have never met Ji Zhao's mother Luo Danfeng, judging from Ji Zhao's appearance, he definitely inherited his mother's beauty. I heard that Ji Zhao's talent for painting was also inherited from his mother, so his mother should be an artist. Ji Jinmao was willing to get a sterilization for her and only give birth to Ji Zhao, which must mean he loved her deeply.
Ji Zhao is really happy because his parents love him and take care of him wholeheartedly.
Thinking of this, Zhao Xiangwan couldn't help but stretch out his hand and pinch Ji Zhao's face. Seeing his handsome face deformed under his hands and him being obedient and not resisting, he felt a little relieved.
Zhao Xiangwan smiled and muttered, "What's the point of being so pretty?"
Ji Zhao heard it clearly and looked at her seriously and attentively, his eyes were affectionate and gentle.
[It looks good, isn’t it? ]
Zhao Xiangwan deliberately frowned: "Not good."
[I think it's good. You are prettier than me, you are smart and capable, I like you. ]
Alas, Ji Zhao now knows how to say sweet words.
Zhao Xiangwan's bad mood was completely cured by him.
"ah!"
Gu Wenjiao was suddenly awakened by a rapid shout.
Because of the sedative she had taken, Gu Wenjiao's mind was a little fuzzy for a moment, and her reaction was much slower than usual.
However, a sharp pain in her heart reminded Gu Wenjiao that she must have forgotten something very, very important.
When Zhao Xiangwan heard Gu Wenjiao's cry, he quickly turned around and grabbed Gu Wenjiao's hands that were trying to hit his head.
Gu Wenjiao struggled silently, with despair in her eyes.
[Why am I here? Why am I lying on a hospital bed? I have no strength left in my body. I am extremely panicked. Have I forgotten something important?]
Zhao Xiangwan's voice was low and gentle: "Gu Wenjiao, don't panic yet."
Hearing Zhao Xiangwan calling her name, Gu Wenjiao stopped struggling, her eyes gradually focused, and her brain finally started to function normally: "You, you are Zhao Xiangwan?"
Zhao Xiangwan nodded and said, "Yes, I am."
Gu Wenjiao looked around and asked: "Why am I in the hospital?"
Zhao Xiangwan: "You fainted."
Gu Wenjiao felt her mind foggy. She tried hard to recall what happened before, but she couldn't remember anything: "Why did I faint?"
Zhao Xiangwan said nothing, pursed his lips, and looked at her quietly.
The sedative was slowly wearing off, and suddenly many, many images flooded into Gu Wenjiao's mind.
She looked up at Ji Zhao who was standing beside her: "Ah, I recognize you, you poked Fan Hongwei's eyes out, and you kicked him in the crotch!"
Gu Wenjiao grabbed Zhao Xiangwan's hand and said excitedly, "He beat me, and you guys vented my anger. You don't know how happy I was when I saw him kneeling on the ground screaming with a broken bottle stuck in his eye and blood all over his face. Whenever he drank at home, he would beat me. When he beat me, he was very cruel, it hurt a lot! I wanted to resist, but I couldn't beat him; I also wanted to divorce, but he threatened my son's life."
Gu Wenjiao now looks like a wronged girl seeking help from her mother. She is simple, lively and lovely. This is her true character.
Zhao Xiangwan let her hold his hand, with a look of sadness in his eyes.
——Gu Wenjiao still hasn’t remembered the reason why she fell into a coma.
After Gu Wenjiao talked for a while, she felt the stuffiness in her throat and mouth eased a little, her heart didn't hurt as much, and her mind became much clearer.
She didn't even notice that her voice was slightly coquettish: "I'm thirsty and want to drink some water."
Zhao Xiangwan nodded, withdrew his hand, stood up, poured her a glass of water, and brought it to her.
Hearing the noise in the ward, the nurse on night duty came in and helped raise one end of the bed so that Gu Wenjiao could half sit and drink water.
The nurse said as she moved up to the head of the bed: "Doctor Gu, why did you suddenly faint? The officer who sent you here didn't explain clearly, he just told the doctor to give you a sedative. Oh, by the way, your wife is still in surgery, and Doctor Qiao said it's pretty serious."
The nurse was a young girl who loved to talk. She kept chattering while she was doing her job, and Zhao Xiangwan was powerless to stop her.
Gu Wenjiao drank the water in the glass in one gulp, placed the glass on the bedside table, and looked at Zhao Xiangwan, but she didn't know where her eyes were focused.
【I remember! I remember! 】
[The serious crime team is investigating the tragic case of the murder of a family in the Third Hospital. They started to ask me about Fan Hongwei at noon today.]
[The police came in the evening, and Zhao Xiangwan said that Fan Hongwei and Cao Deren were criminal suspects.]
[The serious crime squad only investigates major cases. They have reopened the investigation of a tragic case that wiped out a whole family. Fan Hongwei is the murderer. They, they are the murderers who killed my mother! ]
"brute--"
Gu Wenjiao used all her strength and finally cursed out this sentence.
She was trembling all over, but having just woken up from a coma, she had no strength left, not even the strength to be angry.
Zhao Xiangwan asked the nurse to leave, dragged the bench to the bedside and moved closer to Gu Wenjiao, his eyes calm.
"Gu Wenjiao, do you have any evidence to prove that Fan Hongwei is the murderer of his mother?"
Gu Wenjiao was stunned for a moment, looked at Zhao Xiangwan, shook her head, and murmured, "I know, I just know."
Zhao Xiangwan said nothing, just looked at her quietly, waiting for her to sort out her thoughts.
Zhao Xiangwan's attitude gradually calmed Gu Wenjiao down: "I know him, I know he is not a good person. Why did he deliberately want to marry me? I have never understood why he wanted to marry me if he obviously didn't like me? But what if he is the murderer? If he marries me, he can legitimately accompany me to the police station to inquire about the case and inquire about the progress. He used to have a younger brother named Ruan Wu, who disappeared later. He disappeared after I told him that the police found a fingerprint on the door frame. How can there be so many coincidences in this world? Unless... he is the murderer!"
Zhao Xiangwan knew that this was Gu Wenjiao's concern, so instead of hiding it, he told her directly, "Yes, our serious crime unit has reopened a tragic case that wiped out a family ten years ago, and we highly suspect Fan Hongwei and Cao Deren are the murderers. You have been looking for the murderer of your mother, and it is very likely that they are the murderers."
Gu Wenjiao got a positive answer from Zhao Xiangwan, and her heart sank suddenly.
After the feeling of weightlessness, my heart suddenly started beating rapidly.
"Why didn't I think of that? Why didn't I think of that! The police investigation clearly showed that there were two people who killed Cai Chang, and three people who killed... killed my mother. Their age, height, weight, and martial arts skills all matched the criteria. Why didn't I ever doubt that he was the one who killed my mother?"
Zhao Xiangwan shook his head: "There are so many people in this vast sea of people who fit those characteristics. No one would have thought that after killing someone, he would dare to act so brazenly and deliberately approach the victim's family. Not to mention you, so many police officers have failed to trace Fan Hongwei, which shows how cunning he is." If it weren't for coincidence that made him encounter this incident, this unsolved case would probably have been drowned in the long river of time.
Gu Wenjiao fell into extreme remorse and could not hear what Zhao Xiangwan said for a while.
"I really deserve to die. I lived with him for so many years without any doubt! I even had a son with him. I had a son with my mother's murderer!"
“Hehe——”
Gu Wenjiao's laughter was so strange and terrifying that it made people's hair stand on end. She clenched her hands tightly, her nails digging deep into her palms, stinging, but it couldn't relieve the pain in her heart.
Zhao Xiangwan interrupted Gu Wenjiao's laughter, held her hand, looked her straight in the eyes, and a strange light flashed in his amber pupils: "This is not your fault."
Gu Wenjiao was forced to meet Zhao Xiangwan's gaze. For some reason, Zhao Xiangwan's eyes seemed to carry some kind of magical power that made her gradually relax and reveal everything in her heart.
"How come it's not my fault? This is my fault!"
"I couldn't stand my father remarrying and forgetting my mother, so I fought against all his arrangements. I refused to meet any of the people he asked others to introduce to me, but I fell in love with Fan Hongwei."
"My mother once told me that the first thing to look at when choosing a man is his character, but I didn't listen to her!"
"Since I found out that he has a bad character and treats me badly, I should divorce him and I shouldn't have a son with him! Tianbao...what should I do? You are my child who I carried for ten months in my womb. Can I just abandon you?"
Guiding Gu Wenjiao to speak out the pain that was suppressed in her heart was the first step to untie the knot in her heart.
Zhao Xiangwan held Gu Wenjiao's hand and said in a gentle and low voice: "The person who was wrong was Fan Hongwei, you don't have to blame yourself."
Gu Wenjiao looked up at Zhao Xiangwan, tears streaming down her face: "My, my Tianbao..."
Fan Hongwei is the murderer of Gu Wenjiao's mother, but the two have a common son, Fan Tianbao, which is the source of Gu Wenjiao's painful entanglement.
Zhao Xiangwan spoke faster and asked very simple questions that could be answered without thinking.
"Is Tianbao's last name Gu?"
"No."
"What's his last name?"
"Fan."
"How old is he?"
"Almost six."
"How long until I turn 18?"
"Twelve years."
"If he gets married and has kids when he's 26, how long will it take?"
"Twenty years."
"If you live to be eighty, how long will it take?"
"Fifty years..."
Zhao Xiangwan suddenly stopped and looked at Gu Wenjiao seriously and attentively: "If you don't make decisions, you will suffer from the consequences."
Gu Wenjiao herself felt that the confused thoughts in her head were being pulled up, becoming clearer and clearer, and began to mutter to.
"Fan Tianbao is my child, but he is also Fan Hongwei's son. The Fan family has been a single-line family for three generations, so they will definitely not give the child to me. Even if the court awards Tianbao to me, Fan Hongwei's parents will definitely make trouble, and his sisters will teach Tianbao to hate me. I raised him for six years, yes, but there are still twelve, twenty, fifty years to go in the future..."
If Fan Hongwei was convicted, he would definitely be shot. The Fan family had only one son for three generations, so Fan Hongwei's parents would definitely fight for the custody of Fan Tianbao.
Instead of getting hung up on it, it's better to just give up.
Rather than having your child hate you for helping the police catch his father in the future, it is better to cut off ties with him completely.
If you want to hate, hate to the end; if you want to cut off, cut off completely!
"Just pretend that this child was never born, just pretend that this child was never born?"
Afterwards, Gu Wenjiao's eyes showed a hint of determination. She gritted her teeth and said in a strong tone, "Just pretend that I never gave birth to this child!"
Seeing that Gu Wenjiao had hardened her heart and made up her mind, Zhao Xiangwan was relieved: "Gu Wenjiao, this is your home ground, you don't have to be afraid of Fan Hongwei anymore. Treat him the way he treated you. This is called--"
Gu Wenjiao was thoughtful, and her eyes lit up: "Retribution?"
