Chapter 56 Shameful
Fisher's surrender brought hope to the investigation of the case.
Yes, Xia Mufan’s speculation was reasonable and logical, but he was unable to arrest the suspect. Why? There is no evidence.
You said Fei Qingbai killed Gu Mingkang and Xie Lijiao. Where is the evidence?
Although he had a motive to commit the crime, did he have the time to do it? Where is the murder weapon? How did you get to Hui City from Kyoto? Are there any witnesses?
Six years later, this evidence is difficult to obtain.
Even if I reveal all this in front of Fei Liyan, so what? The chain of evidence was incomplete and the police were unable to convict the suspect. Fei Liyan could only expel Fei Xinmei and her two daughters, but could not bring them to justice.
Just expulsion? not enough! It’s not enough!
Now, Fisher Lan has been successfully instigated by Xia Mufan to surrender herself in order to seek a reduction in sentence or exemption from punishment.
The deadlocked case finally took a big step forward.
——When did you start to doubt Gu Shaoqi’s background? What method is used to confirm? How do three people discuss it?
——What means of transportation did Fei Qingbai take to go to Hui City? How to ask for leave? Does anyone know his whereabouts?
——What weapon did Fei Qingbai use to kill people? Where is the murder weapon? How did he get out of the headquarters staff building? How to leave the chemical plant?
All these questions are answered here by Fisher.
Feng Xiaoyu wrote down several full pages in the transcript and asked Fei Xuelan to sign for confirmation.
Xia Mufan smiled and said, "Thank you, Doctor Fei. If it can be proven that you have confessed your crime truthfully, I believe the judge will make a judgment at his discretion in the future."
Fisher Lan breathed a sigh of relief: "Then, can I go now? I still have outpatient clinics in the morning."
Xia Mufan's smile deepened: "I'm afraid you have to go back to Hui City with us."
Fisher: "Why go to Hui City? I've already turned myself in."
Xia Mufan: "Although you turned yourself in, it was after we interrogated you. Secondly, we cannot prove that what you said is true. You still need to go back to the public security agency where the crime occurred for further processing. I'm afraid you won't be able to return to work at the hospital in the near future."
Feng Xiaoyu put away the transcript: "Don't worry, we will contact the hospital and explain the situation."
Still want to continue working? What a nice thought!
Fisher felt something was wrong: "I was forced. I didn't commit any crime. Why should I go to the public security agency?"
Xia Mufan looked at her deeply and said, "Oh, you are an important witness. This is the normal procedure."
In this way, Fisher Lan was taken back to the Criminal Investigation Brigade of Hui City Public Security Bureau.
As soon as she entered the brigade, an arrest warrant was waiting for her and she was taken to the detention center.
Immediately afterwards, Yue Yuan personally led a team to arrest Fei Qingbai and Fei Xinmei.
As Fei Qingbai is a senior officer in the military region, the police need instructions and permission from their superiors to arrest people.
Fei Liyan soon learned the news and sent people to bring Fei Xinmei and Fei Qingbai back to the military compound. Yue Yuan, Gu Shaoqi and Xia Muchan went to Fei's house.
This is a two-story building with its own entrance and courtyard, and the courtyard is planted with lush flowers and trees.
Fei Liyan and Mu Anchun have retired to the second line. They usually plant flowers, read books, take walks, and lead a leisurely and comfortable retirement life.
The news that Fei Qingbai and Fei Xinmei had committed a murder case made Fei Liyan unable to sit still any longer. He picked up the phone and arranged everything.
With the commander's words, Fei Xinmei and Fei Qingbai, who were in the army, were brought over.
Xia Mufan, Yue Yuan, and Gu Shaoqi, all in uniform, walked into Fei's house together. As soon as they opened the door to the living room, they heard a roar: "Qingbai, tell the truth!"
It seems that Fei Liyan still doesn't know the truth of the matter.
He just thought that Fei Qingbai was involved in an ordinary murder case.
Fei Qingbai stood in the middle of the living room, head bowed and silent.
Fei Liyan was dressed in military uniform and had a solemn expression on his face.
Mu Anchun, wearing a suitable cotton and silk dress, sat on the sofa, his face turned pale with anxiety, and his voice began to tremble: "Qingbai, you are confused!"
Fei Xinmei knelt at Mu Anchun's feet and cried, "Mom, please save Qingbai, save me."
Gu Shaoqi was the first to step through the gate.
He was wearing a beige short-sleeved shirt and army green trousers, tall and straight: "Hello, Chief."
The four people present all focused their eyes on Gu Shaoqi.
Fei Qingbai's pupils shrank and his lips closed tightly.
Fei Xinmei sat back and her body swayed.
Fei Liyan and Mu Anchun were surprised: This policeman looks like Fei Qingbai!
Mu Anchun suddenly thought of something and looked at Fei Liyan.
Fei Liyan has half Belarusian blood, but he looks more like his father, so he has a regular face, but his eyes are deep and resolute, and his skin is fair.
However, Mu Anchun had seen a photo of Fei Xinmei's mother, Fei Liyan's sister. She had fair skin, a high nose, and deep eyes, and was extremely beautiful.
Fei Qingbai looks very much like his grandmother, handsome with a foreign air.
At first glance, the young policeman in front of him was about 70% similar to Fei Qingbai, but his temperament was more refined and gentle.
Is it a coincidence, or is there some hidden story?
In an instant, Mu Anchun thought a lot.
Could it be that Fei Liyan lost his integrity in his later years and had an illegitimate child outside?
Could it be that Fei Qingmei is secretly pregnant and having an affair with someone else?
Fei Liyan stared at Gu Shaoqi's face for half a minute with eagle-like eyes: "Who are you?"
Gu Shaoqi: "Gu Shaoqi, my father Gu Mingkang and my mother Xie Lijiao were both killed by Fei Qingbai."
Fei Liyan: "Are you a relative of the deceased?"
Gu Shaoqi nodded: "Yes."
Fei Liyan noticed something was wrong and turned his gaze to Fei Qingbai: "Why?"
Fei Qingbai flatly denied: "I didn't."
What a joke, killing someone means paying with your life, Fei Qingbai decided not to admit it. Even if that idiot Fei Xuelan leaked everything, Fei Qingbai would never admit it.
Fei Liyan looked at Gu Shaoqi: "You speak."
Gu Shaoqi took the information handed over by Xia Mufan, walked forward, and described the crime process in detail. Although his storytelling skills are not as vivid and exciting as Xia Mufan's, it is more thrilling when told by the person involved.
After the story was told, without waiting for Fei Liyan to express his opinion, Gu Shaoqi began to present the evidence.
"This is Fisher's confession."
"This is a comparative analysis of Fei Qingbai's footprints and the footprints at the scene."
"This is a comparative analysis of Fei Qingbai's military hammer, military dagger, and the wounds on the corpse."
"This is Fei Qingbai's flight ticket from Kyoto to Xing City on October 17, 1990, and his accommodation records on October 17 and 18."
…
Finally, Gu Shaoqi took out a report and handed it to Fei Liyan.
"In August 1990, Fei Xinmei went to Country M and asked a scientific research institution to do a DNA test. The test results showed that the owners of the hair she provided were father and daughter."
Fei Xinmei was originally kneeling on the ground. When she saw the evidence, she was so frightened that she even forgot to shed tears. She just stared at Gu Shaoqi blankly, unable to believe that the police could dig up so much evidence.
They even knew that she went to Country M to find someone to do a paternity test!
Mu Anchun pushed Fei Xinmei away and slowly stood up.
Fei Xinmei looked at Mu Anchun's stiff body. His resistant posture made her heart feel like it was soaked in ice water, making it numb with cold.
She suddenly rushed forward and hugged Mu Anchun's legs: "Mom, mom, don't leave me."
Fei Xinmei is almost fifty years old, and she suddenly hugged an old woman in her seventies or eighties and called for her mother like a child. The scene was really shocking to the eyes.
Mu Anchun was hugged by her and couldn't break free, so he looked at Fei Liyan for help.
Fei Liyan came over and growled, "Let go!"
Fei Xinmei was frightened by her father's prestige and immediately let go of his hand.
She rushed to her father and continued to kneel: "Dad, please help me! I was only eight years old when I came to you. The better you treat me, the more scared I am. I always feel that this is all like a dream. As long as I close my eyes, everything will go back to the past, back to the home where I was hungry, cold, and beaten every day. I'm just scared, I'm just scared..."
Fei Liyan looked down at her and said in a deep voice: "My biological daughter is Xie Lijiao?"
Fei Xinmei turned her head away and dared not speak.
Fei Liyan asked sternly, “Is that so?”
Fei Xinmei was forced to nod, her voice as small as a mosquito: "Yes."
Fei Liyan continued to ask: "After you completed the DNA test in August 1990, you already knew the result, right?"
Fei Qingbai was afraid that his mother would say something she shouldn't, so he quickly answered: "Grandpa, we're not sure either..."
Before he could finish his sentence, Fei Liyan raised his right hand and slapped him hard.
“Bang!”
With a crisp sound, a slap mark appeared on Fei Qingbai's face.
Fei Liyan was over eighty years old, but he was in good health and had great strength. With just one slap, he made blood flow from the corner of Fei Qingbai's mouth.
Fei Qingbai covered his face with one hand and dared not say another word.
Fei Liyan turned around and continued to ask Fei Xinmei: "Xinmei, you go ahead and talk."
When Fei Xinmei saw her son being beaten, the painful memories of being beaten by her father in the past were awakened. She subconsciously crossed her arms and huddled up into a ball to minimize her exposed area.
Mu Anchun was a little reluctant, but Fei Liyan was not moved at all and continued to ask: "Is it true?"
Fei Xinmei replied in a muffled voice: "Yes."
"Why didn't you tell me?"
"I'm afraid. I'm afraid she will take you away."
"so what?"
"As long as she disappears, you will be mine alone."
The love given by Fei Liyan and Mu Anchun was very warm and heavy. Fei Xinmei wanted it too much and was too afraid of losing it. When she knew that she had a cousin, she felt no joy but panic.
Fei Liyan narrowed his eyes and looked at Mu Anchun.
Tears flowed from Mu Anchun's eyes. He sat down dejectedly and muttered to himself: "My daughter, my daughter..."
Fifty years later, Mu Anchun found out that his daughter was taken away by the wrong person at birth.
On the way north, the premature baby girl who died in her arms turned out to be a child of the Xie family.
Xie Lijiao, who was killed by her adopted daughter, was her own flesh and blood. Xie Lijiao, who had struggled to make a living in the countryside, was her own flesh and blood.
Fei Liyan looked at Fei Qingbai and said, "Let me ask you, what is the glorious tradition of the military?"
Fei Qingbai's face twitched: "The interests of the people are above all else."
Fei Liyan said angrily: "Soldiers are born for war and die for peace! The army has trained you for many years and given you excellent skills, but you turn your butcher knife on your relatives?!"
Faced with his grandfather's anger, Fei Qingbai felt like he couldn't breathe.
His lips were tightly pursed, his hands were clenched, and he still stood straight.
Fei Liyan slapped the back of the sofa and squeezed out two words from his throat. These two words seemed to be filled with blood and wrapped in gunpowder, which made Fei Qingbai tremble with fear.
"shameful."
"shameful!"
"shameful--"
