Chapter 55: Reason
Tang Guo listened to Qin Cang's words, and felt speechless, although measured by the "political correctness" standard of the judicial circles nowadays, what Qin Cang said was obviously wrong, but Tang Guo felt that what he said was impossible to refute. There is only one human life, Shi Liquan killed Aunt Jia's niece because of his behavior at that time, for Shi Liquan, if he really reformed himself in prison, changed his mind, and truly became a good person who was different from the past, then no longer dwell on his past, not looking at him with colored glasses, and tolerantly giving him a second chance, let him start again, which is fair. But if you look at it from a different perspective and consider it from the perspective of Aunt Jia's niece, after such an incident, it brought unbearable humiliation to the young girl of the year, and made her lose the courage to live. Never again.
"You're quite right, I used to think that as long as you sincerely repent and ignore the reform, the past can be turned over, the past is not to blame, start over, after all, those days in prison, these criminals are also paying the price for their past behavior, so they shouldn't always hold on to the past, after you say this, I think it doesn't seem to be the case, it's one thing for criminals to pay the price in prison, but the victim can be remedied, This is another matter, not all mistakes have been made, and there is still a chance to make up for the loss! She sighed and admitted that what Qin Cang said made sense, "If a life disappears, then it can't be made up for no matter what!" ”
"You can be taught, you are much more humane than those top experts who are high up!" Qin Cang seemed to be teasing, looking Tang Guo up and down, and gave her a weird compliment.
Tang Guo didn't feel inexplicable or confused this time, and the answer Qin Cang gave at that time suddenly appeared in her mind when she asked Qin Cang why she didn't continue to do the college job that was obviously more decent and easier, and even had a better income, but she was going to suddenly and inexplicably quit her job and run to be a policeman.
"What does it have to do with me whether others envy me or not? I just live my own life and take responsibility for myself. What's more, do you think things are as simple as they seem? How many dark sides beyond your imagination are sanctimoniously hidden beneath the so-called 'decent scenery'. In contrast, I would rather live a more positive, pure life. ”
That's what he said at the time.
After thinking about it like this, Tang Guo basically had a guess in her heart, she didn't say her thoughts immediately, for fear that if she accidentally said the wrong thing, Qin Cang would not be very happy, after all, since the beginning of cooperation, Tang Guo has also seen some clues, Qin Cang has never liked to discuss his own private affairs, even if he is involved, he has to mention, he will try to downplay it, and then completely block all the opportunities for the other party to get to the bottom of it. So as to why he chose to resign and change careers, Tang Guo had a guess, but he didn't dare to say.
"Say whatever you want to say, just say it, and stop talking with a look on your face, looking upset." Just when Tang Guo was still struggling, planning to restrain his curiosity as much as possible, Qin Cang suddenly opened his mouth to her.
Since he said so, Tang Guo simply put aside his previous concerns and asked: "It's nothing, it's just that I have always wondered why you left the school and chose to come over to take the police exam, and I also think that this is a 'positive' job, and now I feel as if I know the answer...... Oh, I didn't mean to think about you, it's just that things suddenly came together, so I just had feelings, and I didn't want to inquire about your personal privacy, so you can't say that you're not happy! ”
"Don't talk so much nonsense, but you said to hear it, why do you think that?" Qin Cang was still relatively patient at this time, as if he suddenly became a little interested, and asked Tang Guo.
"I think you should be more inclined to protect the interests of victims, and think that in legal practice, we should consider and look at problems from their side, right? Although I'm not from your major, I studied in this related major during my studies, and I was more or less marginal. Tang Guo said his thoughts and speculations in one go, "In recent years, the mainstream thinking in the legal profession seems to be more inclined to protect the human rights of criminals and other rights, and not enough attention has been paid to the victims. ”
"It's not that it's not enough, it's quite insufficient." Qin Cang shook his head, the expression on his face became a little serious, but judging from his tone and attitude, Tang Guo should be right, "What criminology really needs is a kind of neutral justice that overrides the perpetrator and the victim, and the macro overall situation, and it must be impartial to be qualified." What is the meaning of the law? Maintain social order, punish the criminal behavior that has already occurred, so that the perpetrator can learn a lesson and dare not commit it again in the future, and by the way, warn potential offenders to know what the cost of crime is, so as to protect all law-abiding citizens who abide by the rules of society. In other words, they are either impartial and neutral, or they are used to fight crime, punish the perpetrators, and protect the injured parties and the general public, am I right? ”
"That's right." Tang Guo shook his head busily, and he didn't have any objections to what Qin Cang had summarized.
"However, do you think your so-called 'political correctness' meets these two points?" Qin Cang asked, of course, he didn't mean to accuse Tang Guo in his tone, after all, those views were not Tang Guo's personal views, so they had nothing to do with Tang Guo, "Now in the professional field, in the academic world, the position of the group of people who control the right to speak has obviously been biased, not only can they not be impartial macro neutrality, but they have even forgotten what the social significance of the law is formulated. The party that has made a big fuss in these aspects, but has really been harmed, has not achieved anything about how to protect and compensate. I don't bother to use my wisdom and mind to devote myself to how to protect a group of criminals, and I know that no matter how unreasonable these things are, I can't reverse them by myself, so the only thing I can do is not to go along with them, and choose to be a front-line criminal police officer after leaving my job, so that at least within the scope of my own duties, I am really relying on my own ability to do something for the victims and the victims' families to seek justice. ”
After Tang Guo heard his words, she didn't know what to say for a while, she was just a rookie who had not been away from campus for a long time, and she didn't have a particularly deep feeling for many things in the workplace, but after listening to Qin Cang's reason why he chose to give up his original job, there was an inexplicable heaviness in her heart, and a sense of helpless frustration, and she felt more empathy for Qin Cang.
Indeed, no matter how strong a person's sense of justice is in his heart, and no matter how strong his personal ability is, reality is still reality, and it will not be reversed because of a person's own strength, not to mention the right to speak in the hands of someone, which also determines a lot of things, this kind of atmosphere in the judicial circle is not a day or two, and it is claimed to conform to a certain international trend, when Tang Guo was studying in school, he also listened to the teachers of professional classes express some similar feelings, but most of them are just talking, After that, he still used the "political correctness" model to teach his students step by step, and there are really very few people like Qin Cang who choose to give up their original jobs and choose to leave because of this kind of thing.
Originally, he chose to stay in the university as a teacher engaged in academic research and teaching, he should also like that profession and that major, right? With his mind and the achievements he has created in a short period of time, he should also be full of hope for the future, right? In this case, if you can resolutely choose to give up, how much courage does it take to give up everything in the past before you can start anew?
Tang Guo felt that her vision of Qin Cang seemed to be a little different, originally she only thought that Qin Cang was a strange person, and he was unexpected, so no matter what unreasonable things he did, it was understandable, but now, she had another layer of understanding of Qin Cang, and it was naturally impossible to talk about how much she knew, but at least Tang Guo knew that this man, who seemed to behave as extremely self-centered, actually had a compassionate heart and a great sense of justice.
After saying that, Qin Cang seemed reluctant to say anything more, for his usual actions, this time he said so many words in his heart was already very abnormal, and he had no intention of analyzing himself more in front of Tang Guo, after the two of them left this community, Qin Cang immediately announced that the day's work was over, the two of them went home to rest, and the rest of the things were said early the next morning, after all, for him, The most crucial move is for these square dance aunts to spread the kind of conclusions they have deliberately misled, so that they can reach the ears of the real murderers as soon as possible.
Tang Guo didn't have any different opinions on this, she just opened her mouth a little uncertainly and asked Qin Cang tentatively, "Then let's finish it like this?" Don't you need to have a meeting with someone else to exchange information? ”
"There's no need for that, I told you before, what kind of meeting with a bunch of fools is just a waste of time and a waste of life in the end." After finishing Fang Cai's conversation, Qin Cang returned to his usual cold and arrogant appearance.
Tang Guo sighed, although he knew that he shouldn't do this, he still couldn't restrain himself, and muttered in a low voice: "Yan Lifu is a famous detective, how can he be a fool......
"He's not a fool." Qin Cang's ears were very stealthy, and he immediately heard Tang Guo's words, and he responded coldly, "But if you expect him to share his harvest and experience with you, then you are that fool." ”
