Chapter 257 Finally Knowing Where Qin Jiahuai Went
The things Wu Ming took out of the bag were all sealed in sealed bags, which was very neat and organized.
"This USB drive contains audio and video evidence of him beating and insulting me;"
“Here are the photos of my scars and the hospital certificate;”
"This fragment is from the bowl he hit me on the head with, and it has my blood on it;"
"This is proof of our financial dealings, proof of the car purchase, and proof of my investment. I did receive a 200,000 yuan betrothal gift from him, but I also gave him a 280,000 yuan car as a dowry, and it was registered in his name.
"This is the receipt for my three police reports. The first and second cases were mediated but no cases were filed. Lai Dong also signed a letter of apology. Plus, we were indeed discussing marriage. We had already posted wedding photos on WeChat Moments, sent invitations to relatives and friends, and booked the banquet. The elders on both sides said it would be too embarrassing not to get married at this time and advised me to give him a chance, so the mediation was successful in the end."
"The third time, I directly contacted Captain Qin, and finally successfully filed the case."
Chu Yao and Zheng Wenbo examined the evidence one by one.
The last time Chu Yao met Wu Ming, she had a lot of evidence in her hands and was in an invincible position.
This was the first time Zheng Wenbo had come into contact with Wu Ming, and it was also the first time in his career that he had encountered such a troublesome client!
However, good reporting requires hard truths and soft expressions. No audience wants to just look at these certificates and documents.
So dig deeper into the story.
It just so happened that Chu Yao could check what Lai Dong said from Wu Ming's perspective.
Chu Yao asked, "Ms. Wu, did you and Lai meet through a blind date?"
Wu Ming nodded. "Yes, a relative introduced him to me. He said he's honest and single and has never been in a relationship. On the day of our blind date, he was quite direct and asked me if I had any sexual experience."
"I told him I had been sexually assaulted, and he actually hugged me and comforted me, saying it wasn't my fault. This detail touched me, and we started dating that same day."
This is the same as what Lai Dong said.
Wu Ming continued, "Later, the two families met and had an engagement dinner. Both families were very satisfied and booked wedding photos and banquets... The day the wedding photos were taken, we moved in together."
"His true colors were revealed slowly... He started out by saying 'It's not your fault', but then slowly turned into 'I don't even despise you, even though you're a slut.'"
"Then he started beating me... After I was beaten the first time, I secretly installed a camera and recorded everything I said."
This is the "broken window effect" in emotions. If you tell your closest person about your most painful wounds, when you fall out in the future, the other person will know where to poke you for the most pain.
The rest of the story is about how Wu Ming broke free step by step, collected evidence, and called the police to save himself.
After hearing this, Chu Yao and Zheng Wenbo both felt that she was a very rational woman.
Being rational does not mean that you will never be deceived by others. People always have soft spots that can be touched by others, and once touched, they are easily deceived.
But once she knew she had been deceived, she immediately began to think of ways to protect herself and to fight for her own best interests.
Wu Ming has not yet made his evidence public online.
Because once private matters are made public, many things seem like two people arguing and looking to netizens for justice.
She called the police directly and then sought help from the most credible media.
She also did not respond to Feng Kang's grudge, because in that matter, she received 500,000 yuan in compensation, which could easily be used by others to attack her for being spineless and not a perfect victim.
Once she proved that Lai Dong was a violent maniac and a liar, Feng Kang and Fang Xiang, who were tied to Lai Dong, were naturally grouped together in the public's mind.
After the interview, Chu Yao backed up the evidence she provided.
After finishing all this, Chu Yao asked Wu Ming, "I have a colleague who's working on a special topic on intentional injury cases between couples and spouses. She's very familiar with the relevant policies and can give you a lot of professional advice. Furthermore, all of your self-help actions can be used as positive case studies. Would you like me to introduce you to my colleague?"
Wu Ming trusted her very much, and also trusted the person she introduced. He nodded and said, "Yes."
Chu Yao sent a message to Liu Xinxin, and Liu Xinxin immediately agreed.
"Wenbo, you and Liu Xinxin will follow up on this report. I have something personal to discuss with Sister Wu Ming."
"Okay." Zheng Wenbo immediately took all the information and went out.
After the door closed, Chu Yao asked a little embarrassedly, "Sister Wu Ming, when you reported the case last night, you specifically asked for Qin Jiahuai. Was it because other police departments were unwilling to file a case? He's my husband now. I'm a little curious, but I'm afraid that forcing him to call would delay his work..."
"Half of the reason is this, and the other half is..." Wu Ming lowered his voice and motioned Chu Yao to come closer.
Chu Yao immediately moved over.
Wu Ming said, "I heard that when police get promoted, their crime clearance rate is considered. Do they give more credit to major cases? They don't file some complicated, difficult cases, or small, troublesome cases, to avoid lowering their clearance rate. Is that why it's so difficult for many people to report crimes?"
Chu Yao also lowered her voice: "The crime solving rate is indeed one of the promotion indicators. As for the latter situation you mentioned... I don't know. I haven't investigated it and I won't comment."
Wu Ming nodded and continued, "I'm looking for Captain Qin because there's a case involving human life!"
"The day before yesterday, Lai Dong came home and suddenly brought back a large box of cherries. I asked him where the cherries came from, and he told me not to worry about it and just eat them!"
"I find it very strange because he is usually very stingy with me. He would grumble for a long time when I asked for strawberries, let alone cherries which are more expensive?"
"I just found out where these cherries came from last night!"
"Lai Dong's hometown is in Xinfu Village in the neighboring city of Baijiang, which borders our city. The day before yesterday, when he was returning home, he passed by a village entrance and saw an old man selling cherries on the roadside."
"There were no surveillance cameras or anyone else near the old man."
"He got out and directly carried a basket of cherries to his car! He just drove away!"
Chu Yao couldn't believe it: "Isn't this a robbery?"
Wu Ming nodded: "What's more serious is that the old man got up and chased him, but he tripped over a rock and fell on his head, and died!"
"He got drunk and beat me up last night. For my own safety, I tried to please him and washed his cherries for him. He drunkenly told me the whole story, and I recorded it all!"
"After he fell asleep, I immediately filed a police report, reporting both the assault on me and the death of the old man."
"Captain Qin went to that village overnight to collect evidence. This is a major case involving human life. You and Captain Qin have helped me before, and I hope to help him increase his case-solving rate and get a promotion. If necessary, I will testify in court."
After understanding everything, Chu Yao took Wu Ming to meet Liu Xinxin and introduced them to each other.
The incident of the old man having his cherries stolen had no media coverage at all and was extremely new news.
Chu Yao went to report to her leader and planned to go to Xinfu Village to investigate immediately.
Maybe I could meet Qin Jiahuai there.
