Chapter 50 Pine Tree Seeks Help to Solve the Case (Revised)
The swift execution was unexpected by Gu Yiliu. However, Tang Shishen said that they had been investigating the case of Qiu Yishen and Wang Lutang's gang for a long time, and now the evidence was conclusive, so they carried it out directly.
The evidence is conclusive that Qiu Yishen, Wang Lutang, and their clique extorted protection money from others through threats and coercion.
Of course, this is not the only crime; there are also acts of insult, rape, intimidation, causing death, and many more.
After watching the execution, Tang Shishen told Gu Yiliu that he had already applied for an award for her, and it should be approved within a month at the latest.
Gu Yiliu and Tang Shishen talked about Xiao Yuzheng's daughter.
“You’re the one who discovered this, so we can get involved,” Tang Shishen said, full of energy. “I’ll go investigate right away.”
"However, if you say his sheep are witnesses, but sheep can't talk and you need to translate, even though you've been on TV and in newspapers, I think the suspect might find fault with you." Because not many people watch TV, and even fewer can read newspapers; it's not even certain whether the suspect is literate.
“However,” Tang Shishen said, resting his chin on his hand. After a moment’s thought, he had an idea. “You should get a certificate, something like a police dog instructor certificate, or get some authoritative proof. With the victim’s testimony and witness statements, the case might be closed quickly.”
Police dog instructor certificate?
However, taking the exam now has actually delayed the case's progress. Gu Yiliu went to find Bai Weigang.
Director Bai didn't say anything, but helped her get a certificate proficient in animal languages.
Before leaving, Gu Yiliu remembered Shan Ge's matter and mentioned it to Bai Weigang.
"You want the Dongshan County Forestry and Grassland Bureau to investigate?" Bai Weigang asked, his expression filled with surprise and delight.
Gu Yiliu: "We shouldn't let the good stuff go to outsiders."
"Hahaha!" Bai Weigang laughed heartily. "Xiao Gu, you're the one!" He gave her a thumbs up. "I've got it. If you ever need my help, just let me know!"
If we solve such a major case, Dongshan County might become famous.
No, Dongshan County has already become famous once because of Gu Yiliu.
Bai Weigang happily saw Gu Yiliu off.
Gu Yiliu found a secluded spot, opened a teleportation portal, and left.
As soon as they got back, they went to the Dalong Town Police Station with Tang Shishen.
When I arrived, Xiao Yuzheng had just brought her daughter to the police station to report a case.
However, judging from his bruised and swollen face, Gu Yiliu thought he was in bad shape.
Xiao Yuzheng explained, "When I came back yesterday, I got into a fight with Guan Qiang."
Where is Guan Qiang now?
“I have my family watching him at home, so he can’t run away.” Although he didn’t get away with the fight, Guan Qiang was in the same boat, as he broke Guan Qiang’s nose and didn’t even have the strength to curse.
"Comrade Gu, let's go to Dalong Village together," a policeman from Dalong Town Police Station suggested to Gu Yiliu.
Gu Yiliu had no objection.
Tang Shishen went along as well.
The group of four went to Guan Qiang's house, took Guan Qiang away, and also went to Xiao's house to take away the witness sheep.
At the police station, despite being identified by both Xiao Yuzheng's daughter Xiao Zhen and Yang, he still did not confess.
"A fabricated charge! When did I rape her? I'm not that kind of beast!" Guan Qiang roared, his neck veins bulging with anger. He struggled against the handcuffs binding his hands, but the more he struggled, the tighter the handcuffs became. "Sheep can't talk. Even if you want to find witnesses, don't find such outrageous witnesses!"
Gu Yiliu showed him the proof, and also took out the newspaper article that Nie Wenxi and Yang Yin had written for her.
Guan Qiang didn't even look at her, waved her hand away, stood up (his feet weren't locked), and said, "I want to go back. You have no right to lock me up like this!"
Gu Yiliu looked at Guan Qiang, who appeared to be in his thirties. His eyes were lewd, and it was easy to tell at a glance that he was a scoundrel. She silently put away the certificate and the newspaper, deciding whether to read them or not, since she now had a legitimate reason to act.
Gu Yiliu smiled and watched him smugly for a while.
As Xiao Zhen watched Guan Qiang walk towards her, she fearfully hid behind her father. In fact, she was already scared when she came to this unfamiliar place, and she had been hiding half of her body behind her. Now she was hiding her whole body behind her.
Guan Qiang glanced at her and suddenly stopped in his tracks. "And if I may be so bold, are you sure such a young child can remember these things?"
However, no one paid any attention to his words. A policewoman from Dalong Town Police Station took Xiao Yuzheng and her father away.
Guan Qiang watched their retreating figures and asked Gu Yiliu, "Where did they go?"
Gu Yiliu glanced at him, gesturing for him to sit down, but Guan Qiang remained as calm as if he were at home and refused to sit. Gu Yiliu simply pressed him into a seat and shouted, "Sit properly!"
Guan Qiang's face froze, startled by her reprimand. "Lady, if you want me to sit down, can you speak normally? Don't be so loud. What if I go deaf?"
"I said sit down." Gu Yiliu's tone was gentle, and his expression showed no anger.
If Han Yi were here, he would definitely know that Gu Yiliu was digging a pit for someone, waiting for them to jump in. If you want to be comfortable, you should listen to her and sit down immediately.
But Guan Qiang didn't know, or perhaps he simply didn't care and looked down on the policewoman in front of him.
He glanced at Gu Yiliu, thinking she was just a little girl, and then stood up again.
In response, he was met with a pair of handcuffs. Gu Yiliu pressed him down again, and Guan Qiang felt a sharp pain in his tailbone, as if it were broken.
Then Gu Yiliu and two other policemen quickly locked his hands to the stool under his buttocks.
Because the stool was too high, he was locked up and could only lie on his back in that position.
All you can see is a snow-white ceiling.
Guan Qiang stretched out his toes, trying to get off the stool, but the next second, he heard the sound of handcuffs unlocking. Gu Yiliu had locked his feet to the stool as well.
Guan Qiang: "..."
Did Guan Qiang understand the law? No. But he was bold and arrogant, so he wasn't afraid of Gu Yiliu and his group at all at first.
But now he was like a shrimp, sitting on a stool, just sitting there, unable to move. This feeling was difficult and made him feel very insecure. Moreover, the handcuffs on his hands and feet were tightly locked, reminding him that he had said the wrong thing.
Guan Qiang regretted it.
"Let me go, and I'll tell you anything!"
Tang Shishen glanced at Gu Yiliu, wanting to offer a reminder, but Gu Yiliu clearly already knew.
Gu Yiliu said calmly, "We did not use torture to extract confessions."
Guan Qiang felt his neck was very tired. He moved his neck, but the stool under his buttocks wobbled, which scared him so much that he didn't dare to move for a moment.
Guan Qiang cried out to heaven and earth in vain, "You didn't, you didn't, I was wrong, I'll cooperate with your work, I'll cooperate with you."
Gu Yiliu signaled to the police officers at Dalong Town Police Station that they could begin questioning.
Do you know why I called you here?
Guan Qiang nodded, "I understand."
Did you commit any indecent acts against Xiao Xiaozhen?
Guan Qiang remained silent for a while.
"...Can I say no?"
Gu Yiliu looked at the handcuff key in his hand; sure enough, he wasn't behaving himself.
But they do not use torture to extract confessions.
The police officer from Dalong Town Police Station smiled and nodded, "Okay."
Upon hearing this reply, Guan Qiang looked at the ceiling, leisurely wondering what he would do after leaving the police station.
Such an unlucky thing deserves a good meal to make up for it.
Just as Guan Qiang was thinking about food, he heard a sentence,
"Then how come you have Xiao Xiaozhen's clothes in your house?"
"!" Guan Qiang was shocked and blurted out, "How is this possible!"
Guan Qiang turned his head sharply to look. He looked anxious, and he was actually very flustered, but he felt it was impossible.
"Why not? This is what our police officers found in your house." The police even took out a floral dress and showed it to him.
It's a floral dress for 5 or 6-year-old children.
Guan Qiang tried to straighten up, but he forgot that he was locked up. As he struggled, the stool moved around and eventually fell to one side.
Guan Qiang groaned and couldn't get up.
Gu Yiliu received a signal with his eyes and went over to unlock the door for him.
As soon as Guan Qiang was freed, he went straight to the police officers at the Dalong Town Police Station and said, "Officer, let me see you."
The police officer handed him the clothes, saying, "Look."
Guan Qiang frowned, examining the items carefully. "Where did you find this?"
"There are two pieces of clothing under your bed. Whose are they? Xiao Xiaozhen's?"
"How could that be!" Guan Qiang retorted loudly, "It's not hers, I never did anything to her in the room."
"Whose is that?" The police officer from Dalong Town Police Station narrowed his eyes. "You also molested other people? Who were they?"
Guan Qiang abruptly stopped speaking, his expression shifting several times. He pointed at the police officer and shouted, "You're trying to trick me into telling me something?!"
"This isn't just a platitude; it's a technique for asking questions."
"These clothes definitely weren't found in my room, right?"
The police officer ignored his words and simply asked, "Tell me, who else did you molest?"
Guan Qiang was still thinking about what to say. The punishment would definitely be different depending on whether he molested one person or two or more. Guan Qiang thought a lot about it. He thought that he shouldn't have been so careless at the beginning, otherwise they wouldn't have tricked him into revealing information. He thought about where the problem was that he was caught this time, but he couldn't figure it out.
But what I want most is to keep this life.
He was afraid of dying. Therefore, he could not admit that he had also molested or assaulted others.
"Confess and you will be treated leniently; resist and you will be punished severely." Gu Yilu's voice rang out.
Guan Qiang felt pain in his wrists and ankles.
He gritted his teeth, "I only molested Xiao Xiaozhen."
The police officer asked him three times, "Is this your answer?"
Guan Qiang was terrified by the question, but he finally nodded, "...Yes."
Guan Qiang was locked up, but he was questioned every now and then. These last few times he came out, he didn't see Gu Yiliu or the police officer who took his statement the first time. Each time, a different police officer questioned him, and no matter who it was, he gave the same answer.
After being detained for two days, he was brought out again and taken to see someone.
Upon seeing the person, Guan Qiang's pupils contracted. "What are you doing here?"
"I brought my niece to identify you." The woman opposite Guan Qiang laughed until tears streamed down her face. "Guan Qiang, you're finally going to die, hahaha!"
Guan Qiang shrank back, his face turning completely ashen.
Gu Yiliu led him into the interrogation room, and this time he confessed everything.
He molested three people: two were five or six-year-old children, and the other was a teenage girl.
They were all at an age where they didn't know anything, and they were all acquaintances, so it was easy for him to take advantage of them.
On the day Guan Qiang was summoned to the police station, Gu Yiliu and the others actually found a little girl's dress in Guan Qiang's room, but it wasn't Xiao Xiaozhen's.
It belongs to another 6-year-old girl.
The skirt was left by Guan Qiang's ex-wife. She divorced Guan Qiang because he had sexually assaulted her niece.
Others didn't believe Gu Yiliu, but she had inquired about it and believed it. She knew this was the only chance, so she left her niece's clothes in advance and then brought her niece to testify against Guan Qiang.
She got the 1% positive review for the sheep, and also received an extra 4% positive review from the family. What made Gu Yiliu happy was that she finally got the 1% positive review for the pig as well. She saw that the positive review rate on the progress bar had reached 8%.
She thought the system should be waking up soon.
The system is indeed waking up soon. It senses the energy and its consciousness is returning. However, it feels that there are not enough positive reviews. But it can't be blamed on Gu Yiliu. However, if dozens of positive reviews came at once, he would be happier.
Gu Yilu's anticipation was fulfilled when the system finally woke up on a dry and chilly morning.
Along with its awakening, several pleas for help popped up: "Huang Baimu needs help: Someone is trying to cut it down, Officer Gu, help!"
"Green-feathered sparrow cries for help: Officer Gu, help! There's a fire! The bird is trapped and is going to die!"
“Pine Tree Plea for Help +20: Officer Gu, Officer Gu, is that you? The Green-feathered Sparrow says you can save our lives! Someone is setting the mountain on fire! Please come and save us!”
The system's eyes lit up. Reaching the 20+ request for help, it clicked "confirm" even faster than Gu Yiliu, "Yiliu, work has arrived!"
