When the No. 1 community of Guandi arrived, Fang Chaoyang did not show his documents, and talked to Miao Zelin on the phone at the doorman, and then he was allowed to enter.

Taking the elevator to the twentieth floor, Miao Zelin's door was hidden, and when he heard the sound of the elevator door opening and closing, a little girl in her early twenties with a simple appearance immediately opened the door.

"It's a law officer, right?"

"It's me. ”

"I'm the nanny of Miao's hometown, just call me Xiaohuang, please come in. ”

Fang Chaoyang nodded and walked into the house, at this time, the door of the study also opened, and Miao Zelin walked out on crutches, his steps were slow, and his complexion was even darker than last time.

Fang Chaoyang's heart was sour, and he hurriedly stepped forward to support him, and said, "Old Dean, sit down." ”

"The doctor said that my body is much better than before, but this is the stuffiness in my heart!" Miao Zelin pounded his chest, revealing a sad look, and tears slid in his eyes.

"We, the juniors, should come and accompany you more. Fang Chaoyang said apologetically.

"No, you're all busy with work, come and sit in the study!" Miao Zelin said.

"Miao Lao, do you need to cook right away?" asked the nanny Xiao Huang.

"Okay, Chaoyang will stay here for lunch. Miao Zelin agreed.

Fang Chaoyang didn't object, he didn't want to hurt the old dean's heart, so he agreed, and helped the old dean into the study.

The two sat down at the desk, and Fang Chaoyang saw some torn manuscripts, which were thrown into the trash, and the handwriting on the spread manuscript was messy, which showed that the old dean had been uneasy.

The noon sun shone in through the wide glass window, making the white hair on Miao Zelin's head dazzling, he first sighed lightly and asked, "Chaoyang, has the 625 corpse crushing case been decided?"

"At present, it can basically be determined that the real culprit who killed and broke the corpse back then was Shang Zaijun. Fang Chaoyang nodded.

"It was my fault that brought the serious law to shame and the courts to blame. Miao Zelin reviewed.

"Old dean, you can't say that, you were not the presiding judge back then, besides, you are also very busy with work, and omissions are inevitable. Fang Chaoyang persuaded.

"Wrong, it's wrong, you can't make excuses for yourself, it's not fair to the wronged. Miao Zelin shook his head and said quietly, "I've been thinking about whether the loss of my granddaughter is a kind of retribution in superstition these days. ”

Fang Chaoyang was taken aback, these words came out of Miao Zelin's mouth, indicating that his heart was on the verge of collapse, and he hurriedly comforted: "Old Dean, you can't think like that, there is no connection between the two, and it has not been found out yet, why Lei Fumin pleaded guilty back then." ”

Nanny Xiaohuang knocked on the door and brought in two cups of tea, Miao Zelin took a sip gently, and then slowly recounted some memories of the case.

That year, coinciding with the state's crackdown on organized crime and evil, the police carried out operations almost every day, the appeal files submitted by the procuratorate were piled up, and the court side also caught up with the institutional reform, and both jurors of the criminal court were transferred to the lower courts, and there was a shortage of personnel.

At that time, Miao Zelin was very busy, attending special meetings held by provinces and cities in three days, and he was very busy, and there were many case files, and there was negligence during the review.

He had an impression of Lei Fumin's case, because it was very sensational at the time, and the call for a speedy investigation and judgment was very high.

The most striking feature of this case is that the murder weapon was not found. However, the murder weapon described by Lei Fumin is exactly the same as the form produced by the broken corpse.

There are also cases where the murder weapon is not found for trial, and when it comes to the court, the criminal case must be sentenced is the norm that needs to be followed.

It is said that during the trial, Lei Fumin always admitted that he did the case, because he had long harbored ill intentions for Wu Lanfang.

After the death sentence was pronounced in the first instance, his sister said she did not accept it, and Lei Fumin also agreed to the appeal, which is said to be very reluctant.

The Provincial High Court was very busy at the time, and did not hold a trial, believing that the facts were unclear, and directly sent it back for retrial, and the process was not compliant. Judge Wu of the Municipal Intermediate People's Court at that time insisted on his attitude and sentenced Lei Fumin to death again.

"Alas, this is a confused case, and in this process, if one party can handle it carefully and abide by the system, this result will not occur. Miao Zelin sighed.

"Our judicial work has been improving and is working towards a more standardized and efficient approach. Fang Chaoyang said.

"I had to do a deep review of this matter, and when it was written, I would send someone to it. Miao Zelin said.

"The facts have not yet been finally investigated, and the old dean should take care of his health first. ”

After having a brief lunch with Miao Zelin, after Fang Chaoyang returned to the court, he reported the situation to Dean Li Xiang again, but Dean Li Xiang didn't say anything, but his face remained gloomy.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, Shang Yong called and invited Fang Chaoyang to go to Fuyu Village together.

Driving into the car, Fang Chaoyang picked up Shang Yong in front of the city bureau, accompanied by a police car and his two colleagues, and the two cars drove one after the other towards Fuyu Village in the northeast.

"Deputy Director Liu Xianghui has been temporarily suspended. Shang Yong said, and sighed in annoyance.

"Did you ask him about the case?" Fang Chaoyang asked.

"I can't help but ask!"

"What did he say?"

"How else can I say that Lei Fumin confessed back then, and the case was committed by him, just like Shang Zaijun, the description is very clear, except for the murder weapon was not found, the rest of the characteristics of the case are consistent. ”

"No torture?"

He swore that there was absolutely none, Lei Fumin's confession attitude was very good, and he came up with all the tricks. ”

"Assuming that Liu Xianghui didn't lie, Lei Fumin is also strange, how could he take the initiative to take it on himself? This is a homicide case, the nature is extremely bad, he doesn't know that he may be sentenced to death?" Fang Chaoyang said.

"It doesn't make sense, and there are a lot of doubts, so let's go to Fuyu Village to investigate again and see what kind of person Lei Fumin is. Shang Yong said.

"At noon, I went to Dean Miao's house. Fang Chaoyang said.

"With his character, he will not shirk responsibility. ”

"I didn't shirk it, I have been reviewing, and the control was not strict back then. ”

"It's a pity that the old dean has been honest all his life, and he still ends up in a late season. Shang Yong expressed regret.

"Dayong, to tell you the truth, I also feel a lot of pressure on my shoulders. Being a judge is really not a good job, and no one will remember doing justice, and once you make a mistake negligently, it is a stain that cannot be washed away for a lifetime. Fang Chaoyang said.

"The three of us are the highest administrative level in you, and we should bear the greatest responsibility. Shang Yong smiled.

"Don't gloat, I'm serious, when I saw the old dean, I thought about myself. ”

"You, who are more cautious than anyone else, will not have a wrong case. Shang Yong said.

After talking all the way, two hours later, the car drove into Fuyu Village. With the development of the times, the economic situation here has also changed greatly, the income of the villagers has increased significantly, and the fields near the neighboring villages have been covered with plastic greenhouses.

There are brick houses everywhere, and there is no shortage of small two-story buildings, and each house has a large yard. There is also a family that got married, with a big wedding word pasted in front of the door, and there are scraps of firecracker red paper on the ground.
