Chapter 294 Backlash
The investigation of the skull case took half a month.
Today, the suspect was arrested.
After school, Shi Tingyu followed Zhao Qiansun to the police station to check the situation.
She drew the victim's portrait, so she had to know the process and the result.
Four adults, a child, and a dog went to the police station.
The suspect was being interrogated.
Shi Tingyu asked the big sister in the logistics department to take Shen Shen and Li Jian to play, while he and Zhao Qiansun listened to the interrogation outside the interrogation room.
A policeman passed by, and Shi Tingyu stopped him and asked about the identity of the victim.
The young policeman said, "The victim is a member of the Sanhe Brigade near us."
Speaking of this, the young policeman became excited. He lowered his voice and said, "The victim's name is Yang Da, he is 30 years old this year. When we went there, the people in the brigade hadn't seen him for four months. But no one reported the case. After asking around, we found out that it was Yang Da's wife who said that he eloped with a woman outside."
Shi Tingyu's eyes widened slightly.
I always feel that this elopement is a bit strange.
Nowadays, even if someone cheats, they will sneak into a cornfield in the middle of the night. Not many people will elope. Now you need a letter of introduction to go anywhere, not to mention that you have to leave your home and job. How do they live outside?
Especially now there are no private enterprises for them to work.
Thinking of this, Shi Tingyu asked his doubts.
The policeman said, "Yang Da's wife's story is untenable, but everyone in the brigade believes it."
"Why?" Qian Xueqiang couldn't help asking.
The policeman sighed and said, "Yang Da's wife is also pitiful. Since she married Yang Da, she has been abused from time to time. Yang Da beats her when he drinks, beats her when he comes back when he is unhappy outside, and beats her when he is not satisfied with the food. In short, there is no peace every day. Everyone in the brigade knows the other party's character, and they all think that it is good that the other party eloped, at least Yang Da's wife will not be beaten to death."
Shi Tingyu couldn't help sighing and asked, "The suspect is Yang Da's wife?"
The policeman was surprised, "How do you know?" Shi
Tingyu smiled and didn't give the other party an answer.
The policeman had other things to do, and seeing that Shi Tingyu had no intention of continuing the conversation, he left to do his work.
Shi Tingyu thought to himself, if the story of Yang Da's elopement was false, then Yang Da's wife, who spread the story, would naturally be the prime suspect, not to mention that Yang Da had committed domestic violence before.
You know, even rabbits bite when they are angry.
Sure enough, in the interrogation room, Yang Da's wife cried and explained what happened.
That day, Yang Da was drinking at the home of a friend of his in the next brigade. It was past nine o'clock in the evening and he hadn't come back yet. Yang Da's wife saw that it was getting late and didn't dare to go to bed, for fear that Yang Da would come back and see that she had fallen asleep and then punch and kick her.
So she took a flashlight to Yang Da's friend's house to check.
On the way, she met Yang Da, who was walking crookedly.
Yang Da saw his wife coming up and started punching and kicking him, saying that it was so late and she would not pick him up.
Yang Da's wife endured it silently, with a numb face.
But because it was dark, the flashlight had already fallen to the ground when Yang Da hit his wife. Yang Da was not careful and did not stand firmly, so he fell straight down, hitting the back of his head on a stone, and immediately his head was bleeding and he could not move.
Yang Da's wife was startled and quickly picked up the flashlight to see his condition. When she saw the pool of blood on the ground, her mind went blank.
But seeing the other party's wide eyes and pale face, Yang Da's wife felt happy for no reason.
At that time, there were not as many entertainment activities as in later generations. Everyone went to bed early at night. The shadows were so dense in the woods on the roadside that you couldn't see your hand in front of you. The darkness gave people great courage. She didn't want to be beaten every day anymore. She wanted him to die here.
Yang Da's wife didn't stop his bleeding, but dragged him into the woods. While he was unable to move, she vented all the resentment and fear of these years.
The moment she kicked the other person, Yang Da's wife felt happy deep in her heart.
By the time she stopped, the other person was no longer breathing.
Reason suddenly returned to her. Yang Da's wife was a little scared, but seeing the other person motionless, she became happy again.
It would be better if she died. If she died, no one would beat her anymore, and she would no longer have to live a life worse than pigs and dogs.
In fact, things were fine when they just got married, but because she had not conceived a child, Yang Da's attitude towards her became increasingly cold, until he beat her wantonly.
Yang Da's wife's parents adhered to the principle that a daughter who is married off is like water spilled, and because their daughter could not have children, they could not raise their heads in front of their in-laws, so they would never stand up for their daughter.
They just let their daughter suffer all kinds of grievances in her husband's family.
In fact, Yang Da's wife could ignore Yang Da. If he bled too much and she called for help, he would probably not survive.
But she was always afraid that the harm would last for thousands of years. If Yang Da did not die this time, her life would return to the previous dire situation.
That's why they dragged him into the woods to deal with him.
Yang Da's wife trembled and felt his breath. After confirming that he was not breathing, she silently shed tears, but with a smile in her eyes.
Taking advantage of the dead of night, she quickly used the light of a flashlight to cover the bloodstains with soil, then stripped Yang Da's clothes and prepared to take them back to burn them. Then she went home and found the saw that Yang Da used for carpentry, and separated his head from his body.
She had been doing farm work for many years and had a lot of strength, so she didn't think it was difficult.
Few people went to this forest, so she dug a deep pit and threw the other person's body in to bury it, but she was a little hesitant when dealing with the head.
She was worried that if the body was found one day, she would be suspected, so she had to dispose of the clothes and head that could prove the identity of the deceased.
So she wrapped Yang Da's head with the clothes she had taken off him, walked for more than an hour, and buried the head in a deserted earth slope.
Seeing that it was almost dawn, Yang Da's wife was afraid that people would find that the pit was not dug deep enough, so she hurriedly buried Yang Da's head.
She thought that it was mid-July, the hottest time of the year, and as long as there was enough time, the head would probably rot soon.
By then, even if he was found, he would not be recognized.
Returning the same way, Yang Da's wife washed the saw by the river and returned home before dawn.
After returning home, it was getting light and soon smoke rose from the brigade. While making breakfast, she stuffed the man and her bloodstained clothes into the stove and burned them. Then she packed up and went to work with peace of mind.
When the team leader found out that Yang Da did not go to work, he found Yang Da's wife and asked her about it.
Yang Da's wife only said that he had gone to the next brigade to drink with friends last night and did not come back.
Seeing that the other party was not anxious about the man who did not return all night, the team leader did not doubt it. Everyone in the team knows that
Yang Da often beats his wife. Who knows, maybe she even hopes that Yang Da will not come back.
