Chapter 141 Impossible
Gu Shaoqi's professional ability was so intimidating that Xiong Feiliang quickly admitted to the crime of murdering Huang Yanying.
Xiong Feiliang has a voyeurism fetish. Although he always keeps his head down and says nothing, and looks very honest, he actually likes to pry into other people's privacy. He especially likes to hide in the toilet and peek. He gets very excited if he can spy on other people having sex.
Because of this habit, Xiong Feiliang likes to hide in the corner of the public toilet opposite the Bafang Hotel and peep every night.
On that day fifteen years ago, he met Huang Yanying who went to the toilet alone in the middle of the night, and he couldn't help but have evil thoughts.
Taking advantage of the moment when Huang Yanying took off her pants, Xiong Feiliang rushed forward and hugged her from behind, but Huang Yanying reacted quickly, struggling constantly and screaming loudly. Xiong Feiliang was afraid that her voice would be heard by others, so he reached out and covered her mouth.
Huang Yanying broke free from his hand, thrust her head forward, and bit his left cheek hard. That blow was so brutal that Xiong Feiliang was shaking with pain.
In a rage, Xiong Feiliang grabbed Huang Yanying's neck with both hands. Huang Yanying continued to resist and bit his shoulder and scratched his arm with her nails. However, the girl was no match for the adult man in strength. Her throat was strangled and she had difficulty breathing. She soon developed symptoms of hypoxia. Later, Huang Yanying's limbs became limp and she was motionless. She died tragically in that public toilet.
Hearing this, Yu Jing, who was in charge of taking the statement, almost tore the paper with the pen he held tightly in his hand.
Gu Shaoqi retired after completing his mission, while Sun Xianbing, who was in charge of the interrogation, gritted his teeth. The 19-year-old girl was harmed by such an ugly thing in front of him!
Thinking of Xia Mufan's instructions, Sun Xianbing forced himself to calm down and asked, "Who did you meet after you returned? Why did Zhang Hongtu and Meng Sha cover up for you?"
Xiong Feiliang said: "After I returned to my small dormitory in Bafang Hotel, I looked in the mirror and found that my face was covered in blood and my skin was peeling. It looked like I was seriously injured. I didn't dare to tell anyone about such a serious injury. I could only quietly go to the boss's wife to borrow a piece of gauze and get some iodine to disinfect the wound on my face."
Sun Xianbing asked: "Your face was badly injured, didn't Meng Sha ask?"
Xiong Feiliang said: "I tried to cover it up at the time, saying that I accidentally fell when I got up to go to the toilet in the middle of the night and scratched my face."
Sun Xianbing continued to ask: "Did Meng Sha believe it?"
Xiong Feiliang said: "She didn't say anything that night, but the next day the incident happened and the boss's wife knew about it."
Sun Xianbing asked him: "Why didn't I report you?"
Xiong Feiliang shrunk his shoulders, his expression and movements looked very vulgar: "I don't have any other hobbies, I just like to pry into other people's privacy. I would find a way to eavesdrop on what the boss and the boss's wife say in private. I have even stolen the boss's wife's underwear. I know the dirty things that the couple do best. In order to protect their face, they didn't report me, but asked me to leave quickly, and they also tried to cover it up."
Sun Xianbing asked: "And then?"
Xiong Feiliang: "Then? Then I went back to my hometown and waited until the wound on my face was almost healed before returning. By that time, the police had already questioned everyone around me, so my incident was over. But after that, I became timid, so I secretly watched some pornographic movies to relieve myself, and I didn't dare to harm others again."
Sun Xianbing stared at him coldly and didn't speak for a long time.
Xiong Feiliang was frightened by his gaze: "Really, police comrades, I promise you, I only made that one mistake, and I have changed my ways and become an honest person since then."
Sun Xianbing spoke slowly: "There are some things you may have forgotten, right? Yang Jiawei..."
Hearing this name, Xiong Feiliang seemed to see hope, and looked up at Sun Xianbing: "Comrade police, if I can take the initiative to provide information, can it be considered as redeeming myself for meritorious service?"
Sun Xianbing did not comment: "That depends on whether the clues you provide are useful?"
Xiong Feiliang's eyes lit up, and he leaned forward, suddenly excited: "It's useful, it's useful. I have a big piece of information to provide. Aren't you guys looking for the missing Yang Jiawei and Cai Chi? I tell you, I know where they are."
After searching for so long, the case of Yang Jiawei's disappearance finally saw the light of day and the truth was before our eyes.
Sun Xianbing's heartbeat began to speed up, but he remained silent. Not only Gu Shaoqi noticed it, Sun Xianbing also understood clearly that Xiong Fei in front of him had a guilty conscience and liked to imagine things. The less you talked, the more he would talk.
Sun Xianbing’s long silence really made Xiong Feiliang nervous. After admitting to killing Huang Yanying, he only wanted to stay alive and tried desperately to perform well in order to gain the approval of the police and get leniency.
Without waiting for Sun Xianbing to ask, Xiong Feiliang told him everything.
"That foreigner named Yang was rich. He sold a truckload of flour. We estimate that he had at least 10,000 yuan. At that time, the boss and his wife bought the vacant land next to the hotel. They needed money to build a house, and they were still short of money."
"When Boss Zhang saw the two strangers making a lot of money with a truckload of flour, he wanted to hook them and steal all the money back home. But Yang Jiawei and Cai Chi always went in and out together, and they always carried the money with them, so Boss Zhang couldn't do it."
"It wasn't until Yang Jiawei and Cai Chi discussed leaving Huancheng on the first day that Boss Zhang got anxious. He discussed with his wife that since they couldn't steal any money, they might as well kill the two outsiders."
"I remember that day the boss lady's brother Meng Cheng came over to eat again. The boss lady wanted to say something but didn't. I guess she wanted to recruit his brother to join the group. But when she saw Meng Cheng's small body, she thought that the three of them together would not be able to beat Yang Jiawei and Cai Chi, so she didn't say anything."
This matter has nothing to do with Meng Cheng? Sun Xianbing knocked on the interrogation table and frowned: "Just tell me what you saw, don't talk about other things."
Xiong Feiliang nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, yes, I will only tell you what I saw, and I promise not to talk nonsense."
"Later, I saw Zhang Hongtu and Meng Xia, a couple, lingering outside Yang Jiawei's room. There were sounds of people taking a shower in the room. They finally saw the opportunity when they were alone, so they took out their keys and opened the door. There were sounds of fighting in the room."
"I was curious at the time, so I went over to see what was going on, but I accidentally pushed the half-closed door open. When the door opened, I saw the room in chaos. Boss Zhang was pinned to the ground by Yang Jiawei, and the boss's wife had strangled Yang Jiawei with a rope. The boss's wife started yelling at me when she saw me, 'Why don't you come and help? Close the door quickly!'"
"My head was buzzing at the time and I didn't react at all. The boss lady yelled at me and quickly closed the door and helped hold down Yang Jiawei's feet. Soon Yang Moumou stopped struggling. I guess he was strangled to death by the boss lady."
"When Cai came out of the bathroom, the boss and his wife rushed over. I also helped hold down his feet, and then the boss's wife strangled Cai to death. I guess they didn't dare to use a knife for fear of leaving blood in the room. After they killed him, when no one was around at night, the boss's wife asked me to help carry the body to the construction site next door and dump it in a large pit that had just been dug."
"I really just went to watch the fun, and was pulled over by the boss's wife to help. I didn't kill the person, really, it was the boss's wife who strangled him. Afterwards, they only gave me 200 yuan and asked me not to tell anyone. If I dared to tell anyone, they would report me for killing Huang Yanying. I am turning myself in now and actively telling the truth. I am redeeming myself for meritorious service, right?"
Sun Xianbing was speechless.
He is sentenced to death for two crimes, but he still dreams of making up for his crime with merit. How ridiculous.
--
In interrogation room No. 2, Xia Mufan and Meng Sha met face to face for the first time.
Meng Sha in front of him did not show any nervousness.
Because the crime she was arrested for was gambling, the police did not handcuff Meng Sha.
Meng Sha was wearing a loose silk floral dress, with round and shiny pearls on a pearl necklace around her neck. There were only shallow wrinkles on her plump face, and it was obvious that she was living a good life. If it weren't for the rough skin and thick calluses on her hands, it would be hard to tell that she had once worked hard in the kitchen.
Mengsha sat in a relaxed posture. With his hands hanging naturally and his back leaning against the interrogation chair, he looked up at Xia Mufan in front of him, the corners of his mouth twitched and he spoke in a sarcastic tone.
"Comrade police officer, I was just playing mahjong with my friends when I was free. I don't think you need to go to the interrogation room, right? Are you Yang Wenjing's friend? You are deliberately trying to embarrass me. I tell you, police officers cannot torture people to extract confessions when investigating a case. After all, I have been doing business in Huancheng for so many years, and I know some people. Just criticize me and fine me a little, that's enough. Don't push your luck."
Xia Mufan was neither anxious nor annoyed: "You know a lot of people? Why not call them over to meet them?"
Meng Sha smiled awkwardly: "Well, I was just joking, why did you take it so seriously?"
Xia Mufan's face darkened: "Where is this place? This is the interrogation room of the Criminal Investigation Brigade of the Public Security Bureau. This is not a place for you to joke around."
Meng Sha was startled by the severity of Xia Mufan's words. She narrowed her eyes slightly and looked much more honest.
Xia Mufan asked: "Fourteen years ago, Yang Jiawei stayed at the Bafang Hotel. According to you and your husband, a woman took them away in the evening and never came back. Is that right?"
Meng Sha didn't expect Xia Mufan to not mention the gambling incident at all, but instead talked about this old case. Her heart sank, and she nodded: "Yes."
Xia Mushige said: "We invited a criminal investigation portrait artist from Kyoto to draw a portrait of the woman you mentioned, and we found her based on the portrait."
Meng Sha never expected that the woman she and her husband made up would be found by the police. Her pupils shrank and her brows frowned.
Xia Mufan said: "This woman told us that Yang Jiawei and Cai Chi wanted to buy cheap electronic watches and radios, so they came to her. She took him there just to pick up the goods, and after getting the goods, they returned to the hotel around eight o'clock."
Meng Sha's eyes widened and she stood up from her chair abruptly: "Impossible!"
Xia Mushige asked back: "Why is it impossible?"
Meng Sha opened her mouth and some words almost came out.
——There is no such woman at all! That woman was made up by my husband and me. The appearance was exactly like the woman driving the tricycle on the street.
——Without this person, how can you police find him? Even if she was found, she would not have come to the Bafang Hotel at that time, let alone recognize Yang Jiawei and take them to buy electronic products? What a joke!
However, when I regained my senses, all the words were stuck in my throat.
wrong.
How could one really find a woman who made up stories? Unless... the policewoman in front of me is lying! Yes, the police must be deceiving her.
Meng Sha reacted quickly and understood immediately.
After figuring this out, Meng Sha sat back and leaned back in her chair. She changed her shock and put on a mocking smile. "That's not true. It was this woman who took Yang Jiawei and Cai Chi away. After that, Yang Jiawei and Cai Chi never came back. That woman is lying. You should interrogate that woman. Maybe Yang Jiawei and the other two were killed by her."
Seeing that Meng Sha was not fooled, Xia Mufan realized that the woman in front of him was extremely cunning and had a good psychological quality, and it would be difficult to pry her mouth open.
Xia Mufan didn't want to continue to tangle with her: "We will naturally find out who is lying."
After saying that, Xia Mushige left the interrogation room.
Fan Yangping had been waiting by the interrogation room for a long time. When he saw Xia Mufan coming out, he anxiously asked, "How is it? Did she confess?"
Xia Mushi shook his head: "No."
Fan Yangping handed Xiong Feiliang's confession to Xia Mufan: "Xiong has already confessed, are you still afraid that Meng Sha won't confess?"
Xia Mufan said: "This Meng Sha is cunning and calm, has quick reactions, and has very good psychological qualities. If she bites back and only admits to the crime of shielding Xiong Feiliang, then she will say that it was Xiong Feiliang who killed Yang Jiawei and Cai Chi, and now Xiong Feiliang is deliberately framing the couple in order to shirk his guilt. If the two parties' testimonies are inconsistent and the bodies cannot be found for a while, what should we do?"
Fan Yangping thought about it and couldn't help but frown. The truth is right in front of us, so why can't we convict them quickly?
Xia Mufan smiled slightly: "Why are you panicking? Isn't there another Zhang Hongtu? His mentality is not as good as Meng Sha's, so let's start with him and begin the interrogation."
