Chapter 43: Testimony (2)
On the third day of Ansu's arrival in Lhasa, Ge Yuqing and members of the criminal police team went to Xiang Hui's law firm. Due to the sudden death of his friend Peng Dongjun www.biquge.info Xiang Hui has endured his grief and been busy in and out of Peng's house these days. On this day, I finally collected my emotions and went back to the law firm to have a meeting with my colleagues, but as soon as I walked out of the conference room after the meeting, I was blocked by the criminal police at the door.
Although Xiang Peihong was double-opened, everyone can't imagine how deep the water behind the person who can climb into such a position is. The intertwined web of relationships is not something that can be shaken casually. Considering Xiang Hui's reputation in the judicial system and Xiang Peihong's former chief prosecutor of the provincial procuratorate, they politely asked Xiang Hui to go back to help investigate a murder case, and said nothing else.
As soon as he entered the public security bureau, Xiang Hui was immediately detained on suspicion of murdering Tu Yunxi. Only then did he know about Tu Yunxi's death. This news made Xiang Hui almost collapse. Because his other good friend Peng Dongjun just passed away a few days ago, and now he heard the news of Tu Yunxi's death, he lost two good friends at the same time in a week, which made him really unable to accept it for a while.
Regardless of whether Xiang Hui can accept this reality or not, the interrogation of him by the criminal police will still be carried out immediately. People are easily influenced by subjective consciousness, just like when Jing Ming was suspected of participating in a campus theft case because of his fingerprints on the broken screwdriver, although there was no follow-up to the case at that time, but he was examined, and he was not completely cleared of suspicion, so he was inexplicably considered to have a criminal record. Although Xiang Peihong's power is the most important point, there is still a part of the case-handling personnel who are affected by subjective consciousness. During the trial of his murder case, faced with the fact that students from several key middle schools were involved, the investigators first believed that the person suspected of theft was very likely to commit murder with a knife, coupled with the conclusive testimony of the witnesses, so he was inexplicably judged to be a murderer. Now Xiang Hui is also facing such a problem.
Before Chen Dashan shouted injustice in the provincial satellite TV program, and then Xiang Peihong was double-opened, Xiang Hui's speculation that he killed people when he was young spread on the Internet, and the people of the criminal police team had already taken the lead in thinking that Xiang Hui, who had killed people, was the murderer of this murder case. Ge Yuqing was there, but as soon as he left, the criminal police were not polite to Xiang Hui.
The interrogation began for a while before Xiang Hui came back to his senses. In the face of the aggressive interrogation of the criminal police, he did not panic, after all, he had been in the judicial system for many years, and the most important reason was that he did not kill Tu Yunxi.
Tu Yunxi received a report from the police station on the second day after his death. After a preliminary examination, the cause of death was an injection drug overdose, and at first the public security department believed that it was caused by his personal behavior, but later after the autopsy results came out, it was found that he had serious head injuries, which did not rule out the possibility of his murder. It is likely that someone hit him in the head first, causing him to be drugged and killed without being able to resist at all. If that's the case, it's a murder case entirely.
After listening to a few questions asked by the criminal police, Xiang Hui quickly analyzed them in his brain.
First of all, Tu Yunxi must have been killed. Because the reason why Tu Yunxi hates their family is because the bar was framed for drug involvement, Da Zhong took all the charges for him, and because of his father's intervention, Da Zhong was sentenced to death. Tu Yunxi also mentioned to him that their bottom line is to resolutely not touch drugs. He believes that Tu Yunxi is a human being, so he thinks it is impossible for Tu Yunxi to take drugs. And the cause of his death was an overdose, and there is only one possibility, and that is that the drugs were injected into his body by someone else.
Secondly, Tu Yunxi's time of death was the night he went to the bar to look for him, between 12 and 2 a.m. And that is after leaving the bar. He was already at Ansu's house at that time. And he is believed to be suspected of committing the crime with a motive for committing the crime, and the time of the crime is roughly the same.
The motive for the crime was Chen Dashan's testimony, and Tu Yunxi had promised to testify for Shi Jingming's reversal of the case, and if the reversal of the case was successful, Xiang Peihong and his son would inevitably go to prison. In order to defend himself, the reason for killing Tu Yunxi is valid. On the day of the crime, Xiang Hui went to the scene of Tu Yunxi's murder, and one more important thing is that Xiang Hui's fingerprints were found at the scene of the crime. Xiang Hui is the most suspicious of Tu Yunxi's murder. If convicted of murder, he will surely die.
Xiang Hui has also been in the judicial system for so many years, and he knows the interrogation procedure very well. He behaved calmly in the face of the accusations made against him by the criminal police. As long as he presented evidence that he was alibi on the day of the crime, it all worked out. Ansu was the best witness, and she could prove that he was at her house at the time of the crime. And that night, he was at her house all night. But is she willing to testify for herself?
If it was someone else, he would be sure to persuade, but it would be another matter if this person was Ansu. To testify for him would be to admit that the two spent one night, and that would have an impact on her honor. Although women nowadays are more open and don't attach as much importance to this name as before, Ansu is different. A woman who has spent sixteen years alone guarding her memories and deceiving herself must have valued honor above all else. Lonely men and widows who are in the same room all night, saying that nothing has happened, who will believe it? To be honest, even he didn't believe it. Although Ansu promised to forgive him, forgiving him does not mean that he is willing to testify for him. If he said that he was with An Su that night, maybe not only would he not be willing to testify for him, but he would hate him to the core. Thinking of this, Xiang Hui was a little frustrated.
At the same time, he remembered a possibility. That is, Tu Yunxi's death is inseparable from his father. Because Tu Yunxi told him before he died, Chen Dashan traced that his father's driver had been in contact with the gang that framed him. In this way, Xiang Prosecutor General is also suspicious. His motive for killing is also consistent with the analysis of the criminal police. Although this is hypothetical, he knows that it is not impossible. Originally, his father intervened in the drug-related case in the bar to cause Tu Yunxi to die. Just thinking about how likely this is makes him shudder.
He also thought of Peng Dongjun, but how could it be that others had been in G City all the time? The person was gone, and he still doubted him, Xiang Hui really wanted to slap himself hard. Although he is cruel to Tu Yunxi, he is 100% sincere to himself. I remember that he has been running behind him since he was a child, and has accompanied him through his childhood and throughout his youth. His best brother was gone.
After planning to return to G City and start making relevant arrangements, Xiang Hui, who went to surrender, also put it aside due to Peng Dongjun's sudden death. After Peng Dongjun knew about his desire to turn himself in, the two friends had a big quarrel and broke up unhappily.
Peng Dongjun said angrily and sadly: "It was we who intervened in the drug-related case in the bar, but for whom? Now I've got the punishment I deserve. I have nothing to say about this. But Ah Hui, isn't it enough for me and your dad to get in? Are you going to destroy your future? ”
But at that time, Xiang Hui felt very angry when he thought that Peng Dongjun could actually deal with Yunxi ruthlessly. No matter what Peng Dongjun said, he couldn't listen to it. Peng Dongjun's last words to him were: Ah Hui, I am doing this for the good of everyone. Why don't you understand?
When Xiang Hui went to see him for the last time, it seemed that his last words were still ringing in his ears. Thinking of his helplessness when he had to defend himself, Xiang Hui's tears couldn't help but gush out. Peng Dongjun is gone, Tu Yunxi is also gone, from now on, he will have no good brothers. Thinking of this, he was saddened.
The interrogation process was long and grinding. Faced with the repeated interrogation of the criminal police, Xiang Hui began to feel tired. Whatever he asked, he answered truthfully, but when asked if there was any evidence of his alibi, he was silent. Suddenly, he wondered if An Su would come to his rescue if he knew he was in prison. He wanted to gamble, with his life. If you lose, you should return your life to Shi Jingming.
At first, Xiang Hui was very calm, which made the criminal police very disgusted. They saw a lot of murderers pretending to be calm when they first came in, and they had a way to get him to confess. Later, Xiang Hui instantly became negative, and they didn't know how to deal with it for a while. Sure enough, it was a well-known barrister, but they underestimated it. In the subsequent interrogation, Xiang Hui remained silent, no matter what they tried to do, they just didn't speak. (To be continued.) )
