Chapter 174: Case Closed and Righteousness Restored
After Deng Xingwang's description, the matter became very clear.
Meng Xingwen brought his girlfriend to see Li Weimin's father for medical treatment, but Li Weimin's father had already returned to his hometown, so the couple stayed in Li Weimin's clinic waiting to be seen.
Later, Li Weimin's father, Li Shanglong, injured his leg and could not come back for the time being, so Meng Xingwen hurriedly took his girlfriend there.
I also informed my girlfriend's parents before leaving, and the four of us set off together.
Therefore, on the day of the incident, Meng Xingwen should not have appeared in the backyard of the clinic.
In fact, this was also confirmed at the train station.
The day before the incident, Meng Xingwen and his girlfriend's family had already boarded a train to Ontario.
They just turned back halfway. According to his girlfriend Wang Xuanxiu's family, it was because they left in a hurry and the X-rays they had taken at the hospital were left in Anxi. So the three of them went to see Li Shanglong to treat their cervical spondylosis, while Meng Xingwen returned to Anxi to look for something and agreed on a meeting time.
Who knew that Meng Xingwen didn't come for more than half a month, but instead received a call from Li Weimin, saying that Meng Xingwen had feelings for her, but he couldn't resist his family, so this time he helped her cure her illness and they would be even, and they should not meet again in the future.
Wang Xuanxiu was heartbroken, but she also knew that she had this strange disease. He had been with her until she was almost thirty and still hadn't married. It was already a waste of time for him. How could she bear to let him continue to wait for her, and she had a bad relationship with her family.
So no matter how painful it was, we didn't bother him anymore. We just went to Li Shanglong's hometown for acupuncture treatment accompanied by our parents. Now he has completed two courses of treatment, and his headache and neck pain have been significantly relieved.
Originally, her parents wanted to wait until their daughter was completely well before having a good chat with Meng Xingwen's family. Perhaps his parents would no longer object after seeing that their daughter had recovered.
Who knew I would receive such a call afterwards.
Wang Xuanxiu couldn't stay any longer, so she hurriedly took the train back here with her parents.
"We've been living in the backyard for almost ten days, and we haven't even met that man twice. How could Awen have argued with him? Even if they did, it wouldn't be enough to kill him. Awen really wouldn't kill him. Please let Awen go. He's been wronged."
Wang Xuanxiu cried so hard that she was out of breath and immediately knelt down in front of them.
Yao Zhuo, the captain of the third team, was also here, and Wang Xuanxiu was kneeling towards him. At that time, the man in his thirties felt a pang in his heart and hurried to pull her.
After he managed to pull her up, his head ached and he didn't know what to do.
"Captain Yao, Jiang Jiang and I have carefully interviewed residents near the clinic over the past two days, and no one has heard of any conflict between Chen Zhong and Meng Xingwen. So, isn't it strange that Li Weimin said they already had a conflict? And the fact that Meng Xingwen just broke up without hesitation also suggests something's amiss."
After all, he was about to cure his girlfriend's illness, but he didn't give up on her earlier or later. Instead, he broke up with her when he was about to see hope. It was a bit too weird.
Besides, since he testified that Meng Xingwen was the murderer, then as an eyewitness, even if he wasn't afraid of Meng Xingwen, he probably didn't want to have anything to do with Meng Xingwen. So how could he possibly tell these things to his girlfriend?
Anyway, what Li Weimin did was very inappropriate.
"That doesn't prove that Li Weimin was the murderer." Yao Zhuo didn't quite believe it.
After all, the current evidence can only prove that Li Weimin committed perjury, but it is also possible that the murderer had already escaped when Meng Xingwen arrived, and when Li Weimin arrived, he saw Meng Xingwen there, so he misunderstood.
You can't call someone a murderer just because he lied, right?
Deng Xingwang didn't show any hesitation at all. He looked at Qiu Jiang expectantly, as if to say, "Partner, it's your turn."
Qiu Jiang did not disappoint his expectations and directly presented another piece of evidence.
"We thought it was very strange at the time, so we carefully investigated the interactions between Chen Zhong and Li Weimin and discovered a very interesting phenomenon."
She left a suspense as soon as she opened her mouth, successfully attracting the attention of everyone present.
"That's Chen Zhong, his family is from the village. They don't have much money, but after coming to Anxi, they've been very generous, not like they don't have much money at all. And we also discovered something interesting..."
She paused for a moment, which made Yao Zhuo very anxious.
"What? Tell me now."
Qiu Jiang pursed her lips. "This Chen Zhong was married eight years ago, but during a birth at the clinic, one woman died and two women died. His family hung mourning couplets at the clinic, and the incident went on for a long time. In the end, the clinic had to pay a large sum of money in compensation. The owner of the clinic at the time was Li Weimin."
"What???" Yao Zhuo's eyes almost popped out of his head in shock.
Deng Xingwang quickly added, "Not only that, but Li Weimin had just graduated and used the savings his family gave him to open a clinic there. Because of this incident, he couldn't stay there any longer, so he returned to Anxi. Everyone thought the incident was over until three years ago, when Chen Zhong happened to find him. The two of them started seeing each other frequently, so I guess Li Weimin has been blackmailed by Chen Zhong for the past three years and has been wanting to kill him for a long time. He took advantage of the fact that Meng Xingwen and the others were gone and there was no one in the backyard, so he wanted to kill him without anyone noticing and put an end to the trouble forever."
"They never expected Meng Xingwen to come back, and they happened to run into him. So they simply used his girlfriend's illness as a threat to force him to take the blame. This makes sense as to why Meng Xingwen confessed."
His logic was very self-consistent. In fact, he had been brewing and muttering these words for a long time. He also felt that this was the only statement that could connect the entire case, and he even received praise from his partner.
With so much evidence, this case is almost certain.
He strongly requested Yao Zhuo to reinvestigate Li Weimin.
Yao Zhuo was also a veteran detective, so how could he not realize that what they said might be the truth? But...
He scratched his head and thought this was a very troublesome matter.
Qiu Jiang asked considerately, "Captain Yao, are you worried about the files at the procuratorate?"
you do not say.
Yao Zhuo finally met someone who understood his difficulties.
At the beginning, because the murderer did not escape and there were no problems with various interrogations, the case was closed long ago and even submitted to the procuratorate.
Although I can get it back and report it again, it’s not nice to say it out loud.
It's not that he doesn't want to set things right, but he really doesn't want to face the director with a particularly bad temper who he needs to deal with.
This is really easy to solve.
"Don't worry about that. The case file hasn't been reviewed yet, so we can take it back directly."
Yao Zhuo exclaimed "Huh?" in surprise, not understanding what was going on.
No matter how surprised he was, when the file was really taken back from the procuratorate, Yao Zhuo finally breathed a sigh of relief. He no longer had any other concerns and immediately started to follow the procedures and quickly arrested Li Weimin.
On that day, Li Weimin was seeing patients. Sitting on the chair in front of him was a pregnant woman with a big belly. It seemed that she was about to give birth. He was examining the pregnant woman with a stethoscope.
There were several people standing next to her who seemed to be her family members, guarding the pregnant woman closely. There were also other young couples watching nearby. The atmosphere was very relaxed. However, as the police came in one after another, everything changed.
"Li Weimin, you are suspected of murder and fabricating testimony. Now you must come with us for investigation. Here is an arrest warrant."
As these words reached their ears, everyone in the room was shocked.
Doctor Li killed someone?
How is that possible?
They were all in disbelief, and some even stepped forward to ask if they had made a mistake. Dr. Li was such a good person, how could he possibly kill someone?
But no matter how much they believed him, it was of no use. The moment the police came in, Li Weimin knew that the matter had been exposed and he had been discovered.
No matter how scared he was before, he felt a little more relaxed now that his nightmare had come true.
When the police pulled out handcuffs, he took the initiative to stretch out his hands and let them take him away.
They then interrogated him and Meng Xingwen separately, and after repeated confirmation, they finally reached the same conclusion as they had previously guessed.
It was indeed Li Weimin who killed the man. He originally wanted to get rid of him once and for all when there was no one in the backyard, so he gave Chen Zhong sleeping pills. When Chen Zhong blackmailed him again, the drug gradually took effect. Li Weimin knew that the time had come. Even though he was very scared at that time, he hated Chen Zhong more. The hatred accumulated by being blackmailed and bullied for so many years suddenly broke out, and he hit Chen Zhong hard on the back of the head.
Whenever he thought about getting rid of him completely in the future, he was so happy that he wanted to cry, so he hit it again and again.
Just as they had guessed, no one expected Meng Xingwen to suddenly turn back and witness the process of his crime.
Li Weimin used his girlfriend's medical treatment as a threat and asked him to take the blame.
As for why he didn't ask Meng Xingwen to cooperate with him in disposing of the body, so that the possibility of finding him would be lower, he could only say that he was already panicking at that time, and being able to do that in the emergency was the best he could do at the time.
It’s a pity that the validity period of this “best” is only more than half a month, and there is no longer period.
His face was gray and calm, and the only people he felt sorry for were his elderly parents.
As for Meng Xingwen, he undoubtedly resents her.
He was about to get rid of that scoundrel, and he would no longer be coerced and would be able to devote all his energy to the cause of obstetrics and gynecology.
But everything changed.
It's because he left and came back.
Perhaps God didn't want to let him go and had to make him pay the price for the mistake he made eight years ago, which was clearly not his fault.
