"It's also luck, this kid wasn't specifically caught by us, but sent to the door on his own initiative......"

It stands to reason that in the investigation period of the case, especially the criminal case, insiders are not allowed to disclose any information about the case, but Xia Yutian's identity is relatively special, even if something really leaks from him, no one may dare to pursue it, let alone find him.

After patiently listening to Nanlihe's story, Xia Yutian suddenly felt that he was simply hugging the thigh of the goddess of luck, and such a low-probability coincidence could be met by him, and he couldn't help but get excited, and said, "You mean to say that the kid named Li Mengnan killed someone?" Now under investigation by your police? ”

"No, at present, our police do not have sufficient evidence to prove that he is the murderer of this murder and mutilation case, at best, he can only be regarded as the number one suspect...... If the case cannot open a breakthrough in him within 48 hours, then according to the regulations, we police must release him. ”

Nanlihe couldn't wait to lock Li Mengnan to the ground, but the Sanshan City Police Station was not his father's Yiyantang after all, and there was the annoying fat old man of Anguo on it, and he couldn't do anything he wanted to do.

"What? Forty-eight hours to be released? How does this work? ”

Xia Yutian's hatred for Li Mengnan is no less than that of Nanlihe, since he was a child, except for his father Xia Guofeng, no one has ever slapped him, but he didn't expect to be slapped hundreds of times by a wild boy who came out of nowhere, which is simply a shame for him.

If it weren't for the fact that he couldn't figure out what the strange methods that kid used last time were, he would have hired a few characters on the road to do it to the other party in the past, and now that he had a more secret chance to kill this kid, how could he let this God-given opportunity slip away in vain?

"Lihe, you are from a professional background, can you help me analyze it, is there any way to kill this kid directly without telling the truth?"

"Killed? On a rainy day, it's not a big problem to be disabled, just kill it if someone is held accountable, even the old man of our family can't afford to take this responsibility, don't forget that Wu Ansu's slut's dead ghost father is still a little thin in the bureau......" Nan Lihe reminded with considerable embarrassment.

"No, if you don't kill this kid, it's hard to solve the hatred in my heart!" Thinking of the shame of that day, Xia Yutian's face, which had been half swollen, began to ache faintly again, "Lihe, when did your guts become so small?" It's just a powerless grass people, are you still afraid that he can go to the sky? I can do what I have to do, and I'll carry it when something happens! ”

Nanli River on the other side of the phone couldn't help but turn up the corners of his mouth, and a cold cold light flashed in his eyes, what he was waiting for was Xia Yutian's words.

Hmph, Li Mengnan, if you want to blame yourself, you don't open your eyes, offend a big man you can't afford to offend at all!

……

"What? Li Mengnan is going to be escorted to the detention center? ”

Wu Ansu almost couldn't believe his ears, the place in the detention center was a place where the evidence was conclusive but the prisoner had not yet been tried by legal procedures, and the identity of the deceased Mi Tong had just been confirmed less than a day, how could the case that was originally almost clueless be announced in the blink of an eye?

The round-faced little policewoman who came to ventilate the news had always had a good impression of Li Mengnan, and she didn't believe that Li Mengnan would be a murderer, so she frowned and said, "Who said it wasn't...... But the task force said that several witnesses had been found, and they all said in unison that they had seen their brother-in-law throw his body into the sewer, Sister Ansu, you should also know that your brother-in-law had the time and motive to commit the crime, and if there is no more favorable evidence to prove the innocence of the brother-in-law, then with the existing evidence, it is enough to make this case an iron case! ”

"Yes...... Don't they find it strange? The notice soliciting clues has been posted for so long, and no one has provided any clues, and as soon as Meng Nan was taken away for investigation, someone immediately jumped out to testify against him? ”

Even Wu Ansu, an outsider, sensed that something was wrong, and she didn't believe that her colleagues in the criminal police team didn't notice anything.

"I also think there is a problem here, but the identities of all the witnesses have been verified, and all of them are ordinary citizens without any criminal records, and they do not know each other, which fully meets the standards of testimony...... By the way, there is also a transcript of the testimony here, the original I can't bring out, I secretly took it with my mobile phone. ”

As she spoke, the round-faced little policewoman turned on the Bluetooth function of her mobile phone and passed the photo she had just taken secretly to Wu Ansu.

Probably because the candid shooting is more urgent, I can't focus accurately, the photo looks a little blurry, and after being sharpened many times by the image processing software that comes with the mobile phone, I can barely see the handwriting on it.

As the round-faced little policewoman said, there were three witnesses, two men and one woman, all of whom were ordinary residents living near the location where the body was found, and the testimony was similar, probably getting up at night to go to the toilet or not sleeping at all, overhearing a sound outside, and then peeking out the window to find someone sneakily pouring something into the manhole.

Judging from the details of the location, time, and physical characteristics of the suspects described above, there is no problem with the testimony of these people, and it is completely consistent with the clues of the case that have been learned so far.

However, Wu Ansu still found something unusual in it.

The testimony of these people seems to be flawless, but the problem lies in this "flawlessness".

Generally speaking, unless you are gifted with excellent memory, it is difficult for ordinary people to remember all the details of a thing that they have not paid special attention to, let alone almost a week in between.

And the details described in the testimonies of these people are surprisingly clear, almost like standing in front of the criminal and watching each other throw the corpse with his own eyes, although from the perspective of probability, it is not excluded that some people will remember such details, but the three people are like this, it is a little too unbelievable.

What made Wu Ansu feel the most problematic was that it was clear that the time of the crime was late at night, and the closest distance between the three people's homes and the crime site was about 20 meters, but the three of them accurately pointed out Li Mengnan who was mixed in many photos when identifying the suspect's face!

This is completely counterintuitive! There must be a conspiracy behind it!

Nanli River!

The only person Wu Ansu can think of behind the scenes at the moment is Nanlihe, because only he has sufficient motivation and has such energy.

"Nanlihe, bastard!"

Wu Ansu was furious, and turned around to go to Nanlihe to discuss the law, but was anxiously pulled by the round-faced little policewoman and said, "Sister Ansu, calm down!" Although Nanlihe is indeed suspicious in this matter, you have no evidence to prove that he did it, so what can you do if you go? ”

The words of the round-faced little policewoman were like a basin of cold water, which instantly sobered Wu Ansu up - indeed, relying only on her own guesses and so-called motives, she couldn't bring down Nanli River at all.

"No......" calmed down, Wu Ansu suddenly found something unusual, "This case has not been officially closed, how can the suspect be escorted to the detention center?" ”

According to the regulations, if the suspect does not confess and admit guilt, the case cannot be closed on the basis of human evidence alone, and there must be at least one key physical evidence.

And in this case, the most critical physical evidence is the sharp weapon used to dissect the body, and the case should not be closed so quickly in theory until this thing is found.

The round-faced little policewoman is also from a professional background, so she naturally knows what Wu Ansu refers to, so she bit her lip and said with difficulty: "Sister Ansu, it's useless...... I heard that this time it is the above meaning, saying that the social impact of this case is very bad, and in order to stabilize people's hearts, we must close the case as much as possible and give an explanation to the general public. ”

Hearing this, Wu Ansu's face instantly turned pale, took a few steps back, and sat down on the bench in the corridor dejectedly, his hands and feet as cold as if he had just been pulled out of a snow cave.

As an insider of the police system, she couldn't be clearer about the deep meaning behind this statement, which can be summed up in two words - maintenance = stability.

In this world, there is no black or white, and sometimes in order to achieve noble goals, some despicable means have to be used.

The law is fair, but in essence, its original purpose does rely on this fairness to maintain the stability of the state, and when there is a contradiction between fairness and stability, the cruelty of the state will be vividly expressed, at the expense of a very small number to ensure that the majority does not have problems, even if it tramples on fairness under the feet.

This is also known as "maintenance = stability".

Although over the years, the word "maintenance = stability" has become a fig leaf used in many places to control the people, but from an objective standpoint, Wu Ansu is not easy to evaluate the rights and wrongs of this approach, after all, sacrificing the minority to preserve the majority is a universal survival law recognized by the entire human society.

But for the outcasts, and even for their loved ones, it is undoubtedly an extremely cruel thing.

"No! It's not fair! I'm going to reason with Director An! I don't want to fight my police uniform, and I can't watch Meng Nan be wronged like this! ”

At this moment, Li Mengnan's identity is irrelevant, and Wu Ansu's righteous and upright character cannot allow such an unjust case to happen under her nose!

"It's useless, Sister Ansu." The round-faced little policewoman shook her head again and again, "Do you think that without the nod of Director An, those people in the criminal police team would dare to close the case so hastily?" ”

"What? How can Director An be so careless of human life? ”

Wu Ansu couldn't believe it, in her impression, the chubby Director An Ke has always been a generous and kind elder, a fighter who never bows to evil forces and ** phenomena.

"Sister Ansu, don't blame Director An...... I heard my dad say that the mayor has had a physical problem recently, and it is likely that he will no longer be able to meet his current position, and the deputy positions of the municipal party committee team are fighting very hard, this time my brother-in-law's case seems to be just an ordinary criminal case, but it is likely that it has become a tool for these factional struggles behind it, and the immortals fight mortals suffer, and Director An has no choice! ”

Wu Ansu was completely desperate this time, she knew very well that in Huaxia Kingdom, nothing was bigger than the word "政zhì".

If it is just "maintenance = stability", as long as he tries his best to find favorable evidence, Li Mengnan still has a great hope of being acquitted; But once it comes to "politics", it depends on whether the big names above can remember this little chess piece that has been used after deciding the winner.

"Sister Ansu, you have to mourn about your brother-in-law...... At best, at least the victim's family is also the family of the brother-in-law, and it is impossible for them to ask the court to severely punish the brother-in-law, according to the current law, the brother-in-law will be sentenced to more than 20 years at most......

The round-faced little policewoman also knew that she couldn't be considered a comfort at all, Li Mengnan was twenty years old this year, and even if he was released from prison in fifteen years, he would be thirty-five years old, and he wasted the most important young time in his life, no knowledge, no skills, and he was charged with being a murderer, and this life would be considered useless.

And what is even more painful is the relationship between the two.

If Wu Ansu couldn't let go of Li Mengnan in his heart, the long years of fifteen years would definitely be a cruel ordeal; If Wu Ansu forgets to start over, then on the day Li Mengnan is released from prison, what face will Wu Ansu, who has become a wife and mother, face this first lover who once gave up his life for her?

"No, there must be a way, there must be a way......"

Wu Ansu covered his face heartbrokenly, and tears the size of beans kept rolling down from the gaps between his fingers.

She didn't understand why God was so cruel to her, and finally met a man she loved deeply, but she had not yet felt the sweetness of love, but she had to face such a difficult choice.

"Sister Ansu, don't embarrass yourself...... If you want to help your brother-in-law, unless you can have a person at the level of the mayor to speak, but how can we, ordinary people, know such a big person? ”

"Big shots?"

The seemingly ordinary words of the round-faced little policewoman suddenly reminded Wu Ansu, although she was not sure whether this method was effective, but at the moment she had no other choice, no matter what the result was, she tried it.

Wu Ansu took out his mobile phone and connected to the wireless network in the bureau, quickly sorted out the language and wrote an email, and sent it to an unfamiliar email address.

"Mr. Wei, I'm Wu Ansu from the Sanshan City Police Station, do you remember Li Mengnan? He's in big trouble right now and needs help urgently......"

……

Looking down at the cold handcuffs on his wrists, Li Mengnan finally felt that something seemed to be wrong.

"Officer, can you tell me where we're going?"

The driver in the front row didn't seem to be an insider of the Sanshan City Police Department, and he was very impatient with Li Mengnan asking this and that, and said in an unkind tone: "Don't talk so much nonsense!" What did you do that you don't know in your own mind? Now take you to the detention center, where do you think you can go? A sanatorium for veteran cadres? ”

"Detention center? Officer, this program doesn't seem right, right? I'm just here to help with the investigation......"

Although Li Mengnan did not know much about the legal process, he also knew that the kind of place in the detention center was for the kind of prisoners who had already had conclusive evidence and were about to enter the trial stage, and his situation should not be here.

"It's useless for you to tell me this, I just escort you over, if you have any grievances, you better wait until the court and tell the judge......"

The police officer in charge of escorting had seen a lot of similar things, and he was not moved by Li Mengnan's words at all.

Li Mengnan realized at this moment that he might have been framed, although he didn't know how a single Nanli River could have such great energy, but out of prudence, he had to start sitting there thinking about countermeasures.

For him, it is not difficult to leave this police car at all, but the problem is that once he does this, it means that he acquiesces to the charge of murder and dismemberment, and the original police investigation of the case will be changed to arrest him, which is extremely detrimental to clearing his grievances.

Li Mengnan is not afraid of anyone, but he is not stupid enough to think that he can confront the violent apparatus of a country on his own.

And the most important thing is that he finally found a warm home again, and he didn't want to give up his family and wander the world alone.

Therefore, unless it is absolutely necessary, Li Mengnan will not consider the last step of taking risks.

However, it is still necessary to be on guard, Li Mengnan's handcuffed hands crossed as if usual, and when he opened it again, the "Lei Jing Ring" on the middle finger of his left hand had disappeared.

This is the root of his turnaround, and it must be hidden.

About two hours later, a gray complex surrounded by a towering wall appeared in Li Mengnan's line of sight.

The heavy black iron gates, the barbed wire fences around the walls, and the ubiquitous surveillance probes and searchlights all shrouded this place in an extremely oppressive atmosphere, which seems incompatible with the picturesque green mountains and green waters around it.

After showing the relevant documents, the black iron door slowly opened with a piercing creak.

At the moment when the car drove over the wall, Li Mengnan saw the name plate hanging on the wall at the door -- Sanshan City No. 1 Detention Center.

After the police officer in charge of the escort went through the handover formalities, Li Mengnan entered the interior of the detention center under the supervision of two prison guards.

Although he was guarded by the prison guards from left to right, Li Mengnan did not have the consciousness of becoming a prisoner at all, but was like a tourist traveling with a group, no matter where he went, he would look east and west with great interest, and only felt that every qiē here was so incomparably novel.

He thought that the detention center should be like the prison often shown in movies and television, with a small space divided by countless layers of iron fences, and the bare playground was full of barbed wire.

But when I actually came in, I found that the environment here is much better than expected, if you ignore the iron fence along the way, it is actually similar to the school building, and the environmental sanitation is even better.

"Don't look at it! Let's go! There will be time for you to watch later! The prison guard impatiently pushed Li Mengnan behind him.

In a separate room, Li Mengnan had everything on his body taken away and changed into a set of gray-blue clothes in the uniform style of the prisoners in the detention center, presumably to be eye-catching, and a very bright orange vest was put on the outside.

After changing his clothes, the prison guard led him around several corridors to a small inconspicuous iron door, opened the door and said, "Go in, you will live here from now on!" ”
