Section 02 came to report the crime in a hurry, and hurriedly left the bullpen

In June 1996, the weather had already begun to heat up, and along with the beginning of the heat, there were cases of theft of rural farming cattle, and the cases broke out one after another.

On the morning of the 18th, Lei Zhengfeng, a villager from Leijiawan in Xiaoquan Village, Jiangnan Town, hurriedly came to the Jiangnan Police Station to report the case, and soon Lei Zhengfeng was sitting in the office of our criminal team.

According to the normal procedure, after asking about the simple basic situation, Lao Lei introduced the situation of the case: The two ploughing cattle that were locked in the cattle pen last night were missing, a yellow bull was three years old, and a water bull was four years old.

Lao Lei was talking to me about the situation, while tears flowed down, and from time to time he wiped his eyes with his wrinkled hands, and after wiping them, he wiped them on the corners of his clothes.

Looking at Lao Lei's pitiful and sad appearance, my heart hurts; But I know that in handling cases, I can't be emotional, it will affect my correct thinking, and it will also affect my emotions. Later, there were many surnames of this kind of reasoning, and it gave others the feeling that they were a little insensitive, and they were actually very wronged.

It was my first time in contact with a rural case, and it was the first time I had come into contact with a case of theft of cultivated cattle, so I asked more about the situation.

"Master Lei, is this cow very valuable?" I asked, although I am also from the countryside, but I have been studying outside all these years, and I have basically not engaged in agricultural activities, and I really don't know the value of cattle.

"Comrade Li, it's worth a lot of money, a cow is worth a few thousand yuan, and a bigger cow is tens of thousands. Worth money is one thing, on the other hand, the key is that we farmers can't do without oxen, you see, this plough land, which one can do without oxen? Old Lei replied, continuing to wipe his tears.

"Oh." I replied.

Seeing that I hadn't figured it out yet, Lao Lei stopped wiping his tears and continued:

"Now they are all divided into households, basically several, or even more than a dozen families with a cow, as soon as they encounter farming, because everyone wants cattle to do things in the field, and they are all very urgent, to catch up with the season, so that sometimes, several families will meet together, it is inevitable that there will be quarrels, and there are also cases of fighting.

I couldn't get used to this kind of neighbor fighting, so I gritted my teeth and borrowed some money from a relative's house to buy these two cows. First, it is convenient for you to grasp the season of cultivation when you are busy with farming, so as not to delay the season; On the other hand, it is also at this time of year to rent out the ploughing cattle and make some money. ”

"Oh." I continued to answer.

"Comrade Li, you're not from the countryside, are you?" Old Ray asked.

"I'm from the countryside, and we also share a cow with several families, but no matter who owns the cow, it's easy to talk about and discuss, and there has never been a dispute over the use of cows." I replied.

"Alas. Our people's hearts here are not as good as those of yours, and we can quarrel over the use of cattle and the release of water. Old Lei sighed.

I couldn't ask about any special circumstances, so I found Team Leader Ah Jian and told me about the report.

After the team leader Ah Jian heard about the theft of the ploughing cattle, he didn't say a word, and immediately pushed out the side three-wheeled motorcycle from the garage, let me sit behind him, and gave up the position of the side bucket that belonged to me to Lao Lei, saying that he was afraid that Lao Lei would sit behind him and accidentally shake off the car, which would be troublesome.

After sitting down, Team Leader A Jian drove a side three-wheeled motorcycle, set off along the machine farming road, and rushed all the way to Leijiawan.

I'm curious, the case of the theft of more than 100,000 yuan of storage hemp on West Street, after I reported it, I didn't see your team leader Ajian personally went to the scene to see it, why is this 10,000 yuan of farming cattle theft case so urgent?

Two ploughing cows, worth more than 10,000 yuan, for farmers, no matter what, it is also a big deal, and now it is almost the season of summer planting and summer harvest, which is also the season of using cattle, at this time to lose cattle, how can farmers not be anxious? Therefore, I think that after listening to the introduction, Team Leader Ajian set off immediately, and it is for this reason.

Leijiawan is located at the junction of Dongyang and Zhening, although the area belongs to Jiangnan Town, in fact, it is a place where two things don't matter, and the police station can't go once a year, and I went for the first time. First, because there are very few cases of villagers reporting to the police, there is no reason for the police station to go. This may be because there are fewer cases and fewer cases are reported, or it may be because it is far away from the town, which is closer to Xiaoxi Town, Zhening County; Besides, the masses are too lazy to report the case, just report the case, they have to run around, it's very tiring, and they have to make a record, and they have to accept questions and questions from the police station, which is quite annoying. In addition, the police station may not be able to solve the case, and it is in vain to run.

The second is that even if there is a public security case, it is a dispute between neighbors, it is a trivial matter, either you occupy my house foundation, or I release the water from your field, this kind of thing can be solved within the village, and it is basically digested by the village cadres, and it will not make trouble at the police station, and the police station will also be idle and relaxed. In the distance, a village party secretary is equivalent to the executor and representative of the law, and the villagers have to listen to the village party secretary for everything.

Two hours later, when I arrived at Leijiawan, Team Leader Ah Jian took me to check the cattle pen, where the two cows lived. The cattle pen is located on the edge of the village, next to the machine farming road, on the west side of the road, standing alone, away from Leijiawan.

It was a low house, a little more than two meters high, with a straw roof, adobe bricks on all sides, and not a single window, but a door, not even a panel, and the door frame was empty, isolated there, full of traces of wind and rain and silver.

As soon as I went inside, the light immediately dimmed, and the smell of dampness, the smell of unpleasant cow feces, mixed with the smell of straw, formed a mixed breath, quickly filling every space on my clothes, mouth, nose, etc., stimulating my senses, I only stayed for three or five minutes, and then I quickly ran out of the bullpen, bent down, gasped for breath, and kept swinging my hands in front of my nostrils, fanning the wind, driving away the smell, I really couldn't stand the smell inside! Besides, it's black inside, what can you see?

Team leader Ah Jian came out a few minutes later than me, obviously not as strong as I reacted, and when he saw that I was still panting and waving my hands, he said to Lao Lei:

"When did you bring the cow in?"

"At six o'clock last night, I was brought in." Old Ray replied.

"And when did you find out that the cow was missing?" Team leader Ah Jian continued to ask.

"When I got up at five o'clock in the morning, I was about to lead the oxen to plow the field, and as soon as I entered the cattle pen, I found that both cows were gone." It was Lao Lei's voice again.

"Is there anything suspicious?" Ah Jian asked deeply.

"I was looking for cattle today, and I touched Ah Xue in the bay, and said that when he came home at twelve o'clock in the evening, he passed by the cattle pen and heard the sound of cows grazing in it." Lao Lei hurriedly replied.

I think it's almost certain that the time of the crime was in the middle of the night, that is, in the early hours of the morning, and the specific time was between 0:00 and 5:00.

"Why can't it be said that the cow has escaped?" Ah Jian asked.

"It can't be! Team Leader Ajian, this is absolutely impossible! "The rope on the cow's nose is tied to the iron ring on the ground, and the iron ring is still there, but no rope has been found, and if the ox breaks free from the rope, at least half of the rope should be left on the iron ring." Lao Lei repeatedly emphasized that he tied the cow rope last night, and he pulled it after tying it, and tried it to confirm that it would not fall off before leaving.

It seems that the cattle were really stolen, not like the case of escape, I thought to myself.

"Then you call Ah Xue, and I'll ask about the situation." I say.

Ah Xue came soon, and the situation he said was basically similar to what Lao Lei introduced.

I looked at Ah Xue from head to foot, from foot to head, and looked at and looked, a thin and weak person can fall down when the wind blows, and he doesn't look like a thief. If this kind of person is a thief, he will be found out or he will be able to run around when he touches someone!

"What are you doing in the middle of the night?" I was still not at ease and asked.

"I'm releasing water in my field, and I'm afraid that others will release my water, so I'll go and see it." Ah Xue hurriedly explained.

"Do you see anything suspicious?" I'd like to find some clues.

"No, I didn't see anything." Ah Xue answered truthfully.

"Oh." I let out a weak sound.

Seeing that I couldn't ask anything, I didn't bother to pay attention to Ah Xue, and looked at Ah Jian, and he signaled that Ah Xue could go.

After Ah Xue left, Ah Jian took me, accompanied by Lao Lei, to visit several houses near the bullpen.

The villagers are relatively honest and answer whatever they ask, and they don't take the initiative to say what we don't ask. I visited more than 10 people, and I also questioned many passers-by, but I didn't know anything about the situation related to the case, and I couldn't provide any good clues. (To be continued.) )
