Chapter 31 Teenager’s Elegy 09 Do you want to be punished?
Chapter 9
Early in the morning, Lu Changfeng was awakened by the chirping sounds outside.
When he looked up, Jing Jue was no longer in the room. He walked to the window and saw a group of people gathered downstairs.
Something must have happened. After Lu Changfeng put on his down jacket, he rinsed his mouth and washed his face, then quickly went downstairs.
The cold wind blowing in from the corridor wiped away all the water stains on his face.
Lu Changfeng went downstairs and met Jing Jue's eyes at the corner. Jing Jue's eyes flashed with panic, and he quickly pushed Lu Changfeng back, "Don't come down."
As he said that, he pulled Lu Changfeng and went upstairs.
"What happened?" Lu Changfeng asked.
Jing Jue said, "Yesterday the municipal police conducted an autopsy on Tang Wenxuan and the others, but the Tang family did not agree. Yesterday we were visiting the town and the family members got wind of it. All the relatives of the deceased are outside, waiting to find us for an explanation."
Lu Changfeng stopped and said, "Hiding is not a solution."
Jing Jue said: "Yuan Suo's intention is that he will find a way to get rid of the person, and we will take the opportunity to leave."
Lu Changfeng frowned, thought for a moment, and said to Jing Jue, "Take your phone and follow me to record the video."
Jing Jue grabbed him and said, "What are you going to do?"
Lu Changfeng: "Just do as you are told."
At the same time, Lu Changfeng took out his mobile phone, quickly turned on the recording function, and put the phone in his pocket.
Then he walked down the stairs in two or three steps.
The person at the front pointed at him and asked, "You are the high-ranking official from Yancheng, right?"
Lu Changfeng straightened his back and spoke in a sonorous and powerful voice: "I am from Yancheng. My name is Lu Changfeng. I am a criminal police officer who is responsible for investigating the case of five sophomores who died in Yulong High School."
"I don't care what kind of police officer you are or who allowed you to perform an autopsy."
Lu Changfeng looked at the source of the voice and answered him: "It's the law."
"Tang Wenxuan, Ma Shanping and five others died in the school laboratory building at noon on September 15. The cause of death is unknown. The family members of the deceased have repeatedly refused to perform an autopsy on the grounds that the body is incomplete after the autopsy. According to Article 3 of the Criminal Procedure Law, the public security organs have a dominant position in criminal investigation cases. Article 129 stipulates that after approval by the person in charge at or above the county level, they have the right to perform an autopsy on a death with an unknown cause. The family members' refusal to be present or refuse to sign without a legitimate reason will not affect the autopsy."
Lu Changfeng's voice was loud enough for everyone to hear what he said.
"As the family members of the deceased, do you hope that the deceased will die in school without knowing why?"
"You can't just dissect the body without caring about the family's opinion! We haven't even said goodbye to our child yet, and you've already cut him open."
Lu Changfeng said: "The police have given you three days. If you want to say goodbye to the child and send him off, the police will certainly support your reasonable request. The immediate family members of the deceased have been placed in the Municipal Bureau and can say goodbye to the deceased at any time."
"I understand everyone's feelings, and I hope everyone can understand us. This case happened in a school with more than a thousand students. If we can't find out the cause of death as soon as possible and catch the murderer, if he can kill five, he can kill another fifty. Don't you worry about the personal safety of your children?"
Lu Changfeng's words were very contagious, and the crowd gradually calmed down.
Just when he thought he could communicate well with everyone, suddenly a man pointed at Jing Jue behind Lu Changfeng and said, "What are you recording?"
As he said that, he rushed forward and tried to snatch Jing Jue's cell phone.
Jing Jue stepped back quickly, and his phone was not snatched away by the man.
The man who snatched the phone said: "Don't listen to him, he is just scaremongering to find an excuse for dissecting children!"
The stairs were narrow, so Lu Changfeng blocked most of the space and let Jing Jue go upstairs first.
Jing Jue immediately rushed back upstairs.
Looking down through the gap, he saw Lu Changfeng being besieged and torn apart by those people.
Director Yuan and his men were unable to pull those people away.
Jing Jue saw that the hand of the man who snatched his phone almost poked Lu Changfeng's eyes, so he rushed downstairs, pushed the man away, and protected Lu Changfeng behind him.
The man who was pushed away immediately pounced on him.
Lu Changfeng didn't know why Jing Jue rushed down again. If this matter was not handled properly, it would turn into a dispute between the police and the public.
While recording the video to preserve evidence, Lu Changfeng said, "If you do it again, it will be an assault on the police. I can detain you according to the law."
Yuan also took the loudspeaker handed over by the comrades outside with great effort, turned it on and shouted: "Fellow villagers, fellow villagers, don't get excited, don't get excited - listen to me, Officer Lu is here to investigate the case and to give justice to the child. The child can't die in school in vain. Everyone must believe in our police. We will definitely solve the case and catch the murderer and give justice to the children."
"What's the point of justice when the person is dead? Can justice bring the child back to life?"
"You must give us an explanation!"
Lu Changfeng had already noticed something wrong in this conflict. It was obvious that someone was leading the pace, and there was someone in the back row recording the video. He was glad that Jing Jue had just pushed the other person out instead of going up to fight with him. Otherwise, if this video was sent out, Jing Jue might have received a severe punishment.
He took the loudspeaker from Yuan Suo and shouted to the family members who were besieging them, "Brother, what's the point of saying that justice is needed after a person dies? I must refute what you said. If there is no justice after a person dies, then it is a waste of life. Five lives, five families, do they really want the murderer to go unpunished and suffer so much pain? Who doesn't want their children to be successful in the future after being raised with so much hardship? They will soon become adults and be able to venture into society, but they were suddenly killed inexplicably in school. Don't you think it's a pity?"
Seeing that they were much calmer, Lu Changfeng continued, "Brother, I also ask you to put yourself in their shoes. If someone kills a hen that lays eggs in your home, wouldn't you have to ask them to compensate you a little to make up for your loss? Would you be so generous as to not care at all? Moreover, this is the life of someone else's son."
Then he looked at the other older sister who wanted to explain, "Elder sister, our police are doing autopsies on the victims to find out the truth, give an explanation to the family and the society, and catch the murderer as soon as possible so that the murderer will receive the punishment he deserves. Don't you want us to catch the murderer?"
Lu Changfeng looked around and changed his tough attitude. He softened his aura and said, "I understand everyone's excitement. You don't want to embarrass us. You just want justice. Please trust us."
Lu Changfeng directly blocked the way of the person who was trying to set the pace, and that person could no longer set the pace. If he continued to hold on to this matter, Lu Changfeng would definitely question his motives and ask him why he was blocking the police from investigating the case.
Seeing that he didn't dare to borrow it away again, Lu Changfeng said to everyone, "We will leave this afternoon. I will be in the station before then. I hope that if you know any news, you can tell us. It may be helpful to the case. Only by catching the murderer as soon as possible can we close the case and reopen the school so that the children can go back to school. Especially the children in the third year of high school are facing the most critical year of their lives. If they can return to the classroom as soon as possible, they can review one more knowledge point. Who knows, they can use this knowledge point to widen the gap with others. One point can leave tens of thousands of people behind. If they are only one point away from getting a score, the children can go to college, to a first-class university, or to a 985211 university. Children are the hope and future of the town. Which parent wants their children to be trapped in this ravine all their lives? Don't they all hope that their children can spread their wings and fly to a bigger world without having to live the hard life they have lived?"
Jing Jue looked at Lu Changfeng's back and felt that his image was extremely tall.
These people also nodded in agreement with Lu Changfeng's statement.
These few heartfelt words really touched everyone's heart.
After sending this group of people away, Yuan Suo gave Lu Changfeng a thumbs up, "You are worthy of being a leader from Yancheng. You were able to calm down this storm so quickly."
Lu Changfeng was immediately deflated and could only wave his hands. His throat was so sore that he couldn't speak.
Jing Jue came forward immediately upon seeing this. When Lu Changfeng saw him, he had to tell him off even though his throat hurt. "Why are you so impulsive? Do you want to be punished?"
"That guy nearly poked his finger into your eye."
Lu Changfeng swallowed his saliva like swallowing a razor blade, "He poked his hand into my eye and hurt me. He attacked a police officer, it's his fault. If you rushed over and hurt him, it would be your fault."
Chief Yuan quickly tried to smooth things over, "Officer Xiaojing was just trying to protect his colleagues from getting hurt, so it's understandable. Nothing happened, so Captain Lu shouldn't blame Officer Xiaojing."
Seeing Jing Jue lowering his head and not speaking, Lu Changfeng's eyes were full of grievance and distress. He reached out and touched his head, "Okay, okay, this won't happen again. From now on, you should do whatever I tell you to do, and don't do anything I don't tell you to do. Do you hear me?"
Jing Jue nodded.
Lu Changfeng asked: "Are you injured? Is there any pain?"
He said to Yuan who was standing beside him: "I'll take him upstairs to check."
"Go ahead, go ahead. I'll go see if breakfast is ready in the cafeteria. You guys can come down and have breakfast later."
"good."
After Lu Changfeng pulled Jing Jue upstairs and closed the door, he asked Jing Jue softly, "Are you hurt?"
Jing Jue nodded.
Lu Changfeng asked hurriedly: "Where are you hurt? Let me see."
Jing Jue took Lu Changfeng's hand and placed it on his heart, "It hurts."
"I'm sorry." Lu Changfeng apologized to Jing Jue and rubbed Jing Jue's chest, "I shouldn't have been mean to you."
Jing Jue said: "They came here deliberately to cause trouble."
"I know." Lu Changfeng sighed and said helplessly to Jing Jue: "Jue Jue, you have to remember one thing. When enforcing the law, no matter how angry you are, you must restrain yourself. You can be tough in your attitude, but never in your fists. One punch from you may ruin your career. Public opinion nowadays is too terrible and too easy to be taken out of context. Never take action if you can avoid it."
Jing Jue nodded and pulled Lu Changfeng into his arms, "I understand. I will control myself in the future."
Lu Changfeng patted Jing Jue on the back to comfort him.
Jing Jue asked angrily, "That man has been leading the charge. Can we bring him to the police station for questioning on the grounds that he is interfering with the police's investigation?"
Lu Changfeng shook his head: "No."
"His pace was so obvious that he even rushed over to grab my phone. If I hadn't dodged quickly, he would have snatched my phone away."
"He is a relative of the victim. Regardless of whether he is a direct relative or not, as long as he has some connection with the victim, he can say that he was emotionally agitated because his child died in school and was dissected. He was not happy with you taking pictures of him with your phone, so he tried to snatch your phone."
"Then there's nothing we can do?" Jing Jue said angrily.
Lu Changfeng walked to the bed and drank half a bottle of water. His throat felt better. He then sat on the bed and patted the seat next to him for Jing Jue to sit down. "Why do you think they came here so early today?"
Jing Jue thought for a moment and said, "They are coming for us. We are few in number and cannot defeat so many of them. If we fight them, we will definitely be caught. Violent law enforcement will result in suspension and investigation, and we will be unable to take care of ourselves. If we don't fight, we will face such great pressure and have to leave as soon as possible to avoid escalating the dispute."
