Chapter 46: The Story
When the police car drove to the scene of the crime, the victim and the murderer were together in front of a small supermarket. Broken wine bottles, victims with bloody faces, and murderers sitting on the steps stunned.
"There's a guy here who killed a thief. The person who called the police stated this, which made Lin Mu a little confused, and the murderer did not run away for the first time.
The arrest process was completed in one go, and the murderer did not resist and allowed the police to escort him into the car.
Sitting in the car, the murderer said in a daze, "Comrade policeman, can you let me tell you a story." ”
"Story, do you think you're the hero......" Zheng Wei was stopped by Lin Mu before he finished speaking, "Say it." ”
The murderer nodded gratefully to Lin Mu and said, "Thank you, comrade police, you are good people, I just want to say it, it's too bitter to hold back." ”
Lin Mu didn't speak, motioning for him to continue.
"When I was 18 years old, I went out to work, and the first time I went out of society, I was stolen money. At that time, I was young, and I didn't think it was great, so I thought about working hard to earn money, and no matter how hard I worked, I could survive. I slept on the road, the overpass, needless to say, in short, I made money later, and it passed.
Later, I met my wife. To be honest, she wasn't good-looking at all, short and fat. But very virtuous. He would cook for me, he would sew my clothes, and he would stand at the door and wait for me when I came home late, it was windy and rainy, and it never stopped. Although the days are still hard, I am very happy and I love her very much.
At twenty-five, we had our first daughter, which was lovely. I can walk before I was three years old, and when I came home from work, she would run over to my dad and ask me to hug me. The little one is very soft to hold, and I secretly swear that no matter how hard and tired I am, I will let my daughter live a good life.
Unfortunately, the good times were short-lived. My daughter was five years old and accidentally fell into the river and drowned. There is no need to mention the sadness, my wife cried when she saw other children in those two years. But then God blessed, and we had a second child in our lives, a son. My husband and wife were worried all day long, for fear that something would go wrong with him again.
The son is very competitive, he will be sixteen in a blink of an eye, and his grades are good, and he is the top student in the class. We don't have to worry about anything, and we also think that He De can have such a good son. ”
"But it's just ......" the man shook his head like a rattle, "my son is sick, hehe, it's his mother's cancer." We couldn't figure out why he got cancer and why it wasn't me. Forget it, what's the way to get sick?
Let's treat him, we will send him to the hospital, and the doctor will examine and see if it is late. What can I do in the later stage? I can't just watch him die, and once we discuss it with my husband and wife, we will have to cure the bankruptcy! So I went to the bank to withdraw money, and I wanted to save my son. The man breathed a sigh of relief and continued
"That was the second time I had money stolen, at the age of forty-nine. I have all my money. My life savings, my son's life-saving money!" The more the man spoke, the more excited he became, he clenched his hand into a fist and hit his thigh fiercely, after venting, he turned his head and asked Lin Mu, "Have you ever seen a big man rolling in front of the bank like that?"
Seeing that everyone didn't speak, he continued, "Later, you don't have to think about it, my son is dead, and my wife is crazy. I have to go to work and take care of her, and I can't help it. I had to lock her up at home.
Then one day when I came home, I didn't see her, and she didn't know how to run, so she ran outside and was hit and killed. Dead, all dead one by one. What reason do I have to live?"
"Even so, you shouldn't have killed. ”
"My wife died just two months ago, and I was in charge of the compensation, and I felt ashamed to death. ”
Lin Mu saw him like this, probably just wanting to spit out the suffering he had suffered over the years for the time being. Sure enough, the man continued to begin his narrative "In my life, I'm sorry for my parents. I'm sorry for my children, I'm sorry for my wife. I'm sorry for anyone, it's not interesting to live.
I saw that the thief was touching the old man's wallet, and if it contained his savings, what about his life-saving money? The thief is on fire, of course he will be on fire, he said that he wants to dig out my eyeballs, dig it, I don't care.
My attitude may have upset him, he was going to beat me, there was no one around to help me, and the old man didn't help me, just like I was at the bank.
I just bought a bottle of wine, the wine is so bold that I picked up the bottle and smashed it on his head, the more I smashed it, the happier I became, all these years of anger, I was wronged and sprinkled on him. Happy!"
The man laughed as he spoke, what have all these years been? It's terrible, he continued, "If only there had been a warrior who could stop the thief like me, but no, there were a lot of people around.
Probably they don't like to get into trouble, like me, I have to go to jail, eat jail, get shot. But don't be afraid, I feel more relaxed than ever. ”
"You don't think about it, that thief also has family, and he's only in his early twenties. Lin Mu's words were as uncomfortable as being choked by his throat, of course the thief's behavior was wrong, but it was not right to kill people.
"You can't say you're in your early twenties, so why don't you steal things? I was only eighteen and I knew how to be down-to-earth and earn food with diligence. The man's calm attitude made everyone in the car fall into deep thought.
"I've never been so desperate and lonely, when all my loved ones are gone, when the thieves are doing it to me. Those were the last words he said in the car.
In just over thirty minutes of travel, the man told him all over his life. His miserable, miserable life.
In the interrogation room, the man told him how he had committed the crime, but he kept emphasizing that the thief did not do it and that he was intentionally killing people.
How sad it is to seek death. Lin Mu looked at his calm appearance and couldn't help but feel a little sympathetic.
The eighteen-year-old thief stole his yearning for this society.
The forty-nine-year-old thief stole his hope for life.
The thief he killed was a relief for him.
In fact, those thieves did not only steal his money, what they didn't know was that they stole the hope of a person's life. And these are just a pitiful source of life for them.
In less than an hour, this is the fastest case Lin Mu has ever solved, and it is also the longest story he has ever heard.
"Qi Life...... "Lin Mu read his name, "the life of abandonment." ”
Mr. Lu Xun said that people's joys and sorrows are not the same. Yes, even if there is empathy, it is only for a few minutes. It's human nature.
Life can draw a circle for anyone and imprison you in it, whether it is pain or happiness. Till death rests.
The only salvation is your attitude towards life.
