Chapter 113 I thought he killed people simply out of hatred for the rich...
Captain Yang came back very quickly.
Xu Nian and his men had just taken Wu Xiaozhen to the interrogation room when, within a few minutes, a large group of people came rushing back.
Wow, there really is a large group of people. The whole building was empty originally, but now it’s bustling with activity. Captain Yang has already entered the interrogation room, and the sound of people running up the stairs quickly can be heard from outside.
As external aid, Guan Xia and her companions also played a significant role in this case, so they naturally occupied a corner in the room where they watched the interrogation. Fortunately, Jianyang City, as the capital, was very wealthy and could accommodate so many people.
Guan Xia was sandwiched between a group of tall men, quietly watching the situation in the interrogation room.
Compared with the murderers seen before, although Wu Xiaozhen looked fierce, she was honest when facing the police's questioning. Before Captain Yang and others could use any interrogation techniques, she had already explained everything clearly.
Wu Xiaozhen calmly placed her hands flat, her eyes downcast, as she spoke, as if reminiscing. "The first time I had the thought of killing someone was when I was 21. I remember it clearly. Yang Wende's grandmother brought him to our house to borrow money. His father had killed someone while driving drunk and died himself, leaving him with a mountain of debt. Even selling our land wouldn't cover the cost. The deceased's family members came to cause trouble every day, and they had no choice but to try to scrape together the money to pay the family back. It was the first time I saw that expression on Yang Wende's face."
At this point, Wu Xiaozhen raised her eyes, looked at Captain Yang, and suddenly smiled softly. "That look of confusion, bewilderment, helplessness, and fear is completely different from the expression he had when he burned me as a child, but he was fearless because of his father's support. I suddenly felt that the reason he was so arrogant and unscrupulous was not because he was so courageous, but because he had someone backing him up. But when that supporter was gone, he became timid and suddenly began to fear the world."
Wu Xiaozhen smiled again as she spoke, as if she was savoring the memory.
Guan Xia was confused at first about who Yang Wende was, but she understood after hearing what happened. It turned out that he was the one who scalded Wu Xiaozhen and directly changed her life.
Captain Yang and another female police officer who was conducting the interrogation listened quietly. Even though Wu Xiaozhen didn't say anything and was just chuckling, they didn't interrupt and waited patiently.
It was more than ten seconds before Wu Xiaozhen continued speaking.
Wu Xiaozhen continued smiling, "From that day on, I had one more thing to do every day, and that was to keep an eye on Yang Wende. I watched how his family became penniless, how they were despised, and how they were bothered. When Yang Wende's father was alive, he drove a truck, and I heard he made a lot of money. Yang Wende is the same age as me, and I had already bought him a house in the county, waiting for him to graduate from college and find a partner to get married. But now, that house has been sold, and he can't go to school because his family has borrowed money from all their relatives and friends. They were afraid that they couldn't pay it back, so they didn't dare to lend more. His family can't even pay the compensation, let alone go to school."
"You don't know how happy I was to see him like that," Wu Xiaozhen's eyes lit up the more she spoke. "I saw him break up with his cronies. He thought it was all over again and even dared to say harsh words to others. Of course, he got beaten up. He was beaten terribly. His eyes were swollen and he even lost a tooth. His family had no money, so he couldn't get a tooth fixed. From then on, his speech became lisp. Whenever he spoke, people would laugh at him. From then on, he didn't even dare to speak and had to put on a smile when he met anyone."
"Later, to pay back the debt, he went to work at a construction site," Wu Xiaozhen said with relief. "I didn't see him working there. Later, I wanted to look for him, but I couldn't find him. But when he came back during the Chinese New Year, I went to see him. He was so different from before. He used to be as fat as a pig, but now he's so thin that his face is sunken. I guess it's because he's doing hard labor, and he's a little hunched over. I thought at the time that this kind of person is just like that. As long as no one supports him, he will live worse than others and suffer the hardships he deserves."
"So you killed those people later?" Captain Yang suddenly asked.
Wu Xiaozhen's eyes widened and she shouted, "Don't they deserve to die for raising such a detrimental child? Even the book says, 'If a son is not well educated, it's the fault of the father; if a son's debt is owed by the father, he will pay it.' Since their sons are doing evil, what's wrong with me killing them? I can only blame myself for not raising them well, or regret giving birth to them in the first place."
From Wu Xiaozhen's words and actions, everyone could see that she had her own logic behind her actions, so Captain Yang didn't bother to waste time saying useless words. He just continued to ask, "Then tell me, how did you kill the person at the end of September 2019, and how did you transport the body?"
In the following time, Wu Xiaozhen told everything she knew, and described the murders she had committed over the years in great detail and comprehensiveness.
According to Wu Xiaozhen, in August 2019, on her way home from work in Jianyang City, she passed by a residential community and saw a group of people holding banners and enlarged photos crying and shouting at the gate of the community. She was curious and stopped to watch for a while.
Through conversations with people around, we learned that these people were the parents of the victims. Their children went to a classmate's house to play, and one of the children didn't want to do homework, so he set fire, causing the fire, which resulted in two children suffering severe burns.
The children were still very young and their lives had just begun, but everything was ruined. The most infuriating thing was that the child who set the fire was too young to be brought to justice. The relatives of the child who set the fire seized on this point to delay compensation and even used the excuse that they could not bear the pressure of public opinion. Their child suffered from severe depression and moved away.
They had money to move to a new house but no compensation. The parents of several families had to go through a lot to find their new address, but as of today, the parents of the children who set the fire have not shown up and have not paid any compensation.
As they were both burned and were about the same age when they were burned, Wu Xiaozhen felt very empathetic at that moment and she continued to pay attention to this matter afterwards.
Until mid-September, the parents of the child who set the fire had been in arrears with compensation and began to accuse the victim's family, saying that there were several children together, so why did the other children run away cleverly while only the children of their two families were severely burned.
Could it be that the two children originally had abnormal IQs and didn't know how to avoid it but rushed to play with fire? Children with such IQ problems are suffering in their lives. Instead of this, it would be better not to treat them and let them go directly. The parents of the two children would have to thank them in return. It was their children who freed them from a heavy burden and they no longer have to bear the guilt in their hearts and the moral condemnation from the outside world.
These words that distorted right and wrong made Wu Xiaozhen so angry that she felt like she was back in her childhood.
When she was 8 years old, she was scalded and her parents went to seek justice. Yang Wende's father said something similar to this harsh remark: She was ugly to begin with, and for a girl who was so tall, she would not be able to get married even when she grew up. Instead of having a bad relationship with her later, she could just exchange the scald for some money and make a profit.
Therefore, even though it had been nearly 20 years since she was scalded, Wu Xiaozhen could not suppress the anger in her heart. Finally, one night, she decided to kill the father of the child who set the fire, so that he would lose his support and could no longer be as unscrupulous as before. She wanted to make him lose his protection and let him suffer the hardships he deserved.
Wu Xiaozhen narrated from 11:00 a.m. until almost 3:00 p.m. Everyone forgot about eating and even forgot about their physical fatigue. They stared at the situation in the interrogation room without blinking.
From Wu Xiaozhen, Guan Xia also learned the cause and effect of her confrontation with the murderer who imitated her.
According to Wu Xiaozhen's confession, she had actually felt the murderer's traces and wanted to kill him before the fight that led to her being imprisoned.
It's not because the murderer imitated her. She couldn't bear the fact that she killed people in such a cruel way for justice, while the murderer did it for his own selfish desires. She thought that the murderer was humiliating her by using the same method as her.
She spent a long time tracking down the address of the murderer who imitated her, and observed him for a long time, choosing the right spot. She even simulated the murder plan in her mind, but unfortunately, the incident happened before she could carry it out, causing her to spend 8 months in prison. When she went to look for the person after she was released, the person had disappeared. She had no choice but to wait for the opportunity again.
She waited for more than four years and finally found the man again. However, she didn't expect that the murderer was very cunning and shameless. As soon as he discovered her whereabouts, he turned around and ran away without fighting with her. He even dared to run towards the police station after being beaten by her.
She had no choice but to give up her plan temporarily, but how could she let the person she wanted to kill go? So she kept looking for opportunities in the following time.
It was just because she lived at home and didn't have much free time. When she found the person again, the murderer had already killed another person, a minor with good behavior. She was extremely angry, and that's why what happened last night happened.
Because of the complex environment of the life-and-death struggle, she was accidentally injured. It was the middle of the night and it was difficult for her to deal with the biological information she left behind. In addition, she had a criminal record and would definitely be hunted down by the police, so she simply went all out and killed the murderer and dumped the body at the foot of the mountain where it would be easier for people to find it.
While the police investigating the case were distracted, she killed all the targets she had chosen for the past four years but had never had time to kill.
Just like before, the three people she killed this time were also people she thought deserved to die. One of them was a child at home who pushed a high school girl off the bus stop while waiting for the bus. As a result, the girl was unable to dodge in time and was crushed by the bus, causing her right leg to be amputated and becoming disabled for life.
The second one was that the child in the family lured the child upstairs to the top floor and pushed her down to her death because he was annoyed by the noise. The third one was that the child in the family was educated by his parents to favor boys over girls. Not only did he beat and scold his own sisters, but he also had an argument with a classmate over a trivial matter, and then hid a knife on his body and stabbed the classmate several times at school, seriously injuring him.
According to Wu Xiaozhen, she actually had several more targets, but as the police's pursuit space became increasingly narrow, she did not have time to kill the next person. She happened to pass by the Tong'an Branch, so she simply turned herself in.
As Wu Xiaozhen finished her last sentence, the serial murder case involving her was finally solved, and the halo that had just been recharged was recharged again, but they still had to continue investigating the case of the second murderer.
Although the person is dead, the motive for the murder remains an unsolved mystery. In addition, the internal organs of the last victim have not been found, so they at least want to bury the victim intact.
Captain Yang also asked Wu Xiaozhen about this issue, after all, she had been following the second murderer for a long time.
Wu Xiaozhen's answer was that she didn't know either. After she was released from prison, her parents kept a much stricter watch over her. She often could only sneak out after her parents fell asleep and sneak back home before they got up at dawn. Since she had injured the second murderer last time, when she found him again, the deceased was already dead.
Everyone could see that Wu Xiaozhen was not lying, so Captain Yang did not continue to question her.
Fortunately, good news soon came from the clerk of Tong'an Branch, and the identity of the second murderer was finally confirmed.
Everyone huddled together again to look at a few thin sheets of information.
Name: Chen Yuanwei, Gender: Male, 38 years old, no fixed residence, rents a new house every six months on average in the urban-rural fringe or urban village, unemployed, makes a living by doing odd jobs.
What is particularly noteworthy in the information is that Chen Yuanwei's father was named Chen Maofeng, who was once the chairman of Maofeng Construction Co., Ltd. Later in 2014, the company went bankrupt and liquidated due to a broken capital chain. He was burdened with 200 million yuan in debt and failed to repay it, so he jumped to his death that year.
Seeing this line of words, Pang Le said sarcastically, "Wow, it turns out that this murderer was a rich second-generation. I thought he was simply killing people out of hatred for the rich."
