Chapter 107 Shattered Three Views
"I originally thought she was talking nonsense, but I didn't expect she was serious," said Xu Jiaguang.
"Go on." Zhou Yi said expressionlessly.
"One night, we were about to do it. I came into the room after taking a shower and found my daughter lying under the covers."
"I was a little angry at the time because usually when she wanted to do that, she would put her daughter to sleep in the small room first. I asked her what she meant, but I didn't expect..."
Xu Jiaguang said nervously: "I was scared half to death by her at that time. I said, are you crazy?"
"But she actually told me that she had put sleeping pills in the milk powder she made for her daughter and that she wouldn't wake up."
Zhou Yi and Wu Yongcheng's faces turned pale after hearing these words.
"And then? What did you do?"
"I called her a psychopath and quickly took my daughter to the small room to get dressed."
Zhou Yi asked suspiciously, "You didn't do anything?"
Xu Jiaguang immediately raised one hand and said, "I swear, I really didn't do anything that night."
"Then when did you start?"
"I don't remember the exact date. I just remember that I got drunk that night... and when I sobered up... I realized I had done something like this."
Xu Jiaguang covered his face, but Zhou Yi could not see any guilt in his eyes. How could any human being do such a heartless thing?
"If you don't remember the day, don't tell me you don't remember the year or month either!"
"Well...I think it was last November."
"Xu Jiaguang, think carefully before you answer. You will bear the corresponding legal responsibility for every word you say."
"Let me think about it again. I think it was around the beginning of last year."
"Xu Jiaguang, do you still have any humanity left?"
"I..." Xu Jiaguang opened his mouth but didn't say anything.
Zhou Yi suppressed his anger and said, "Describe it in detail!"
Then, Xu Jiaguang began to recall and describe these processes.
"Bang", Wu Yongcheng threw the cup in his hand heavily on the table.
"Comrade police officer, I was wrong. I really know I was wrong. I was possessed by a ghost." Xu Jiaguang became increasingly agitated and began to slap himself.
Zhou Yi said coldly: "Stop acting, you've already acted once."
Xu Jiaguang's hand that was about to slap himself froze, "I... I wasn't acting."
"Do you have anything else to confess?"
"No...no, I plead guilty. I will accept the sentence no matter what."
…
After leaving the interrogation room, before Wu Yongcheng could ask, Zhou Yi immediately said, "Captain Wu, I still don't believe what this guy said."
"First, he blamed everything on the now deceased Zhang Hui, who has no evidence to prove his guilt."
"Second, he still insisted that he had killed Zhang Hui by mistake."
Wu Yongcheng took a deep breath and nodded. "He's not even human. Honestly, I don't believe what he says. But at least we discovered this. It's better than not knowing anything. It will also help when sentencing."
"We still have to find evidence that he committed intentional homicide." Zhou Yi murmured.
Wu Yongcheng nodded. "Well, let's follow our agreement this morning and investigate further. It's a revenge killing and a killing for money. Dig up all of Xu Jiaguang's relationships. I don't believe he left no clues."
Qiao Jiali walked towards the two of them.
"Captain Wu, Zhou Yi, the blood test results are in, a match."
"Let the technical department do another blood test on him," said Wu Yongcheng.
"Okay. Oh, and there's one more thing. Xu Xinxin's grandmother is here. According to regulations, we should let them take her away..."
"What's wrong?" Zhou Yi asked.
"Forget it, just follow me and you'll know."
Zhou Yi followed Qiao Jiali to a reception room. Before he saw anyone, he heard a woman with a thick accent speaking loudly in the room.
"You jinx, you're the cause of all the unrest in our family. Your dad is in jail because of your damn mom!"
Lu Xiaoshuang said angrily, "You old woman, watch your mouth."
"Hey, who the hell are you? Why do you care about my own granddaughter?"
Zhou Yi pushed the door open suddenly and saw a short, fat, dark-skinned old woman from the countryside, who was holding up the cloth shoes in her hand as if to hit someone. Xu Xinxin was hiding behind Lu Xiaoshuang, trembling.
"Stop!" Zhou Yi shouted angrily, and the wife stopped hitting him with the shoe in her hand.
When the old woman saw someone coming, she threw her shoes on the ground and put them on while cursing.
"Where's my son? Why are you arresting my son? That woman deserves to die. She seduced my Jiaguang when they were in school. She still seduces my Jiaguang even when she's old. She made him lose his house and his son. I told Jiaguang a long time ago that it's better for such a woman to die outside. That's all."
Zhou Yi felt both sad and angry. He was sad because Xu Xinxin had such a hard life and there was not a single good person in her family.
What makes me angry is that this old woman speaks so harshly and has no legal awareness at all.
This old woman's face shows that she is a shrew. She is even more powerful than Wang Cui'e. She doesn't look at people straight in the eye, but rather with her eyes squinting.
"So, you instigated murder?" Zhou Yi said coldly.
The originally arrogant old woman was stunned.
"You...don't talk nonsense."
Zhou Yi sneered, it seems that he still knows a little bit of law.
"Are you a police officer?"
"Yes, you are Xu Xinxin's grandmother?"
"That's right, didn't you ask me to lead the unlucky star?" The old woman pointed at Lu Xiaoshuang and said, "This damn girl won't let me take people away. What do you mean by this?"
Zhou Yi looked at Lu Xiaoshuang, who was looking at him with eyes full of help.
Of course he knew what this meant.
But he was helpless because apart from this old woman, Xu Xinxin had no other immediate relatives.
My mother died, my father was arrested, and my uncle was also arrested.
Even if he was unwilling, he had no power to stop anyone from taking Xu Xinxin away.
"Brother Zhou." Lu Xiaoshuang called out almost pleadingly.
Xu Xinxin also held Lu Xiaoshuang's clothes tightly, fearing that she would be pulled away in the next second.
Just when Zhou Yi didn't know what to do, Qiao Jiali suddenly said.
"Zhou Yi, didn't you find a new clue? Xu Xinxin is now an important witness and can't leave for the time being."
On the second day of the New Year, everyone, happy new year, I wish you all good luck and prosperity.
