Ning Zhi is the most unsightly like this.

I really won't be able to cope.

Not emotionally, not emotionally.

What's more, it's still facing elders such as teachers.

"Teacher Wen." Ning Zhi lowered his voice and called softly, took out a spare tissue and handed it over, "The previous things have passed, and now, I don't want to mention it." So we're just going to talk about this case today. ”

"You are the victim's class teacher and Director Li's wife, so if you know anything, you may be able to turn the case around."

Ning Zhi's words were not shy about it, Teacher Wen wiped his tears halfway, stopped to look at him, "You doubt him?" ”

"I'm suspicious of all the people involved." Ning Zhi gave this ambiguous answer and politely sent the person back to the hall. Before turning around, he could see clearly that the other party obviously wanted to say something, but held back.

Mother Lin and the teacher left, and the three minors remained in the hall. Ning Zhi sent people out of the compound and didn't ask any more questions.

He knew in his heart that the scene of Chen Xi rushing to the rooftop the day before kept rushing into his mind. Obviously, the other party knows something about the cause of death of the victim Lin Chaolu, at least it can be explained by the word "sympathy" as she said.

The interrogation of Director Li was extremely unsmooth, and it was consumed until after work, when the lights were on, and there was no result.

Most of the police officers have left work on time, and those who remain are voluntary. The dishes and soups in the cafeteria were cold, and Ning Zhi ordered takeout to stop them from complaining.

Those who stayed on the first floor, except for Ning Zhi and Ning Yuan, Lin Zang, Fang Yuan and Fang Ye, were only colleagues who had originally stayed on duty in the team.

Fang Yuan is a girl, so naturally she has to be taken care of, Lin Zang ran in with a bag, and handed it to her first. Then one handed one over. Fang Yuan thanked him and swept around, and found that everyone had it, but there was no Ning Yuan.

"Senior brother, you don't eat, it's past seven o'clock now." Fang Yuan expressed her doubts while disassembling the chopsticks.

"Xiao Fang, you just came here for half a month, I don't know, your senior brother Ning Yuan has never eaten outside, it's been a year, and I haven't seen it once." Lin Zang took a few mouthfuls of rice and jumped tightly, and was stabbed by Fang Ye by an elbow. It's been half a month, and this person hasn't gotten tired of playing the stalk of "Xiaofang".

"It's just a personal habit, I always feel a little greasy on the outside." Ning Yuan smiled and explained to everyone, and soon lowered his head to play with his mobile phone again.

By now, there is nothing to do with this case, it's just that Ning Yuan is just waiting for his brother to get off work together, and everyone has seen it for more than a year, and he doesn't need to explain.

Fang Yuan saw that the two brothers were very close, but they didn't bother, and couldn't help but think of what happened when they were in school, and tried to hold back their laughter.

Lin Zang was half-full, and finally began to complain about the day.

"Every time I interrogate Director Li, I always feel that I have been given a political lesson for a day, and my mind is full of socialist core values. If you want to ask, you're all wrapped up in it. ”

"Anyway, when we were still in school, what was Director Li doing? Is it really about teaching politics? ”

Among the people present, except for Fang Ye, they all graduated from Bichen Middle School that year, and the alumni all gave Lin Zang a look at a fool.

Lin Zang felt despised and silently finished his meal and went to the interrogation room.

Mandatory arraignment, in the absence of conclusive evidence, can only keep the other party for 24 hours at most, and there is not much time left for them.

In the evening, the interrogation room was a different story.

The entire interrogation chair was shrouded in warm light. The place where the police sat was dimly lit, and the rest of the place was hidden in darkness, dividing the small interrogation room into three distinct worlds.

The interrogation chair is very different from the one used during the interrogation, the high stool has no backrest, and Director Li is just the height and leg length of an ordinary man, with his feet hanging in the air and no place to put it.

Ning Zhi came in and replaced Luo Shi out, and Director Li's face changed significantly. The tungsten lamp above his head was not dazzling, but it was bright, and all his expressions could be seen clearly.

"Xiao Ning is here." Director Li took the lead in greeting, leaning forward with his upper body, driving the stool to shake slightly.

Ning Zhi nodded, not savoring whether this sentence was resistance or ridicule. As a general rule, the stability of the interrogator should be maintained as much as possible during the interrogation, especially after the basic trust has been established between the parties. However, Director Li has no trust in them, so it doesn't matter at all.

Lin Zang was extremely tired, but he also cheered up and started a new round of interrogation.

"Name."

"Li Xi."

"Gender."

"Male."

"Origin."

"Bichen City, Shanxi Province, a local."

"Literacy."

"Undergraduate."

These basic sociological materials were asked all the way, and the tone, demeanor, and body language were not much different from before. These basic information can naturally be found on the Internet, but with these information, the person being interrogated has no need to lie, and remembers their various postures at this time, in order to confirm a benchmark value, so as to distinguish whether the other party is telling the truth or a lie next.

"According to the testimony of witnesses, you have sexually assaulted the victim before, what is the explanation for this?" Ning Zhi silently wrote down the baseline, and it was a blockbuster □□.

"It's understandable for a student to see her friend hurt and want justice for her. Our school has always offered courses on legal education, and the teachers are also dedicated, so I am very happy that she can have this awareness. But I can't accept that the person who hurt Lin Chaolu is me. ”

The little confusion that I had seen Ning Zhi at the beginning had disappeared, and Director Li spoke clearly, with a serious taste between his words. Lin Zang rolled his eyes slightly in Ning Zhi's direction, signaling that he was indeed like this again.

"Are you saying that the Witness's words are pure slander?" Ning Zhi tried to provoke.

"The word slander is too serious, Tian Tongtong is just a minor, he just wants to catch the bad guys, he is eager for revenge, there is no malice in nature, I don't want to pursue it."

"Then why didn't you have a camera installed in your school office?"

"Yes, it should have been installed, but considering that the office of the Political and Educational Department is very safe, it has been delayed, which is a dereliction of duty on the part of the school." He changed his look of chagrin again.

"If something like this happens in school, we should be vigilant and we should reflect on it. After I go back, I will install cameras in all the public places of the school to take precautions, and even if something really happens, I will cooperate with you to retrieve the video, which will also be of great help to the progress of the case. ”

"Then can you cooperate well this time?"

"Yes, I'm cooperating."

His words were earnest, but his back was straight, his arms were on his chest, and his chin was slightly heavy. Anyone who comes over to take a look knows it's a signal of defense.

"After listening to the witnesses' confessions, Mr. Wen said that he found some evidence in 403, do you want to see it now?"

Lin Zang had kept his mouth shut before, but now he suddenly appeared.

Director Li's face changed suddenly, he reached out to touch his neck, and when he thought of something, he quickly put it down.

"I don't know what she's talking about." A few seconds later, he added, and his tone didn't change much.

Lin Zang didn't wilt directly when he saw that he couldn't make a plan, but raised his chin in the direction of the door, "Then according to the old rules, let's go up to the third floor." ”

The Psychometric Testing Technique Room is on the third floor, across from the captain's office.

The exterior of the detachment building is embedded with aluminum alloy and dark glass curtain wall, and standing under the building during the day, it is so dazzling that you can't look directly. At night, passing by the corridor of the hall, it was illuminated by the lights, blue, and it seemed a little cold, as if in a dream.

Director Li sat down, and the expression on his face was a little unsightly, but he was quite calm.

The police officer in charge of polygraph did not look at him, and took care of himself to debug the equipment.

The polygraph was the size of a 32-carat book with three antennae on the sensor. Director Li sat in a chair and was fiddled with, with three sensors attached to his fingers, chest, and arm to test changes in skin resistance, breathing, pulse, and blood pressure, respectively.

The police fastened and sat back in front of the host, and almost immediately, a map of Director Li's various data appeared on the screen.

The polygraph has already been done once, and the three types of questions involved have already been set up based on the previous case analysis.

Ning Zhi flipped through the previous records and stayed on a few topics marked in red.

"Tian Tongtong and the deceased were very good friends?" Ning Zhi asked.

"Yes."

"Do you think it is possible for the deceased to tell Tian Tongtong what happened to him?"

"Yes."

"Zheng Mengze is the boyfriend of the deceased, do you think the relationship between them is good?"

"I'm not sure......" Director Li looked embarrassed, he had been told the rules when he did a polygraph before, and he could be silent, but he must answer "yes" and "no" when answering questions. Thinking of this, he hurriedly added yes.

"The deceased often went in and out of Mr. Wen's office, do you think it is possible for the deceased to tell her about his experience?" Ning Zhi didn't look at the host, but Lin Zang could see it very clearly, and the map on the monitor fluctuated greatly in an instant.

This question overlaps with the part that I asked in the interrogation room before, and judging by Director Li's reaction, it is obvious that he suspects that his wife knows some inside information.

Ning Zhi didn't speak again, and after a stalemate of more than ten seconds, Director Li suddenly pulled the sensor tied to his finger.

"The police can only ask me to take a psychological test if I am suspected of being a suspect. As for the evidence, if there is no evidence now, I have to refuse the test and ask a lawyer to come over. I've been locked up in the interrogation room since the morning, and if nothing else, I'm already tired of interrogation. ”

His voice rose sharply, and the policemen on the side were yelled at with embarrassment. got Ning Zhi's signal, and immediately went to disassemble the remaining equipment.

"Regardless of the outcome, polygraphs cannot be used as direct evidence, and are currently used, mainly to exclude the innocent."

Lin Zang hurried to explain, but Director Li didn't reply and pushed the door and left.

"These questions are the most responsive of the previous test results."

Seeing Ning Zhi's black face, the police had to explain cautiously.

Tossing now, it is already more than ten o'clock in the evening.

In order to avoid being labeled as a tired interrogation, this messy day ended.

After sending Director Li in and sitting down, closing the door and coming out, Lin Zang couldn't help but complain.

Ning Zhi ignored him and motioned for everyone to go home and rest.

Ning Yuan's mobile phone was already on the verge of shutting down, but the detachment couldn't just find a charging socket. When I walked back to the dormitory, the red grid in the upper right corner disappeared, and I completely crashed.

Ning Yuan was so hungry that his chest was pressed against his back, and he washed an apple to nibble on when Ning Zhi went to turn on the microwave.

"Even if Director Li's charge of sexual assault is determined, it is not directly related to the cause of death. I don't know what the family is going to do? ”

"Eat something and get some rest, don't think about it."

Ning Zhi saw that he was almost done with apples, and pulled the person in the direction of the restaurant.

When they went back to the bedroom, Ning Zhi glanced at his phone before setting the alarm clock, and it was less than half an hour before the early hours of the morning.

Ning Zhi hung up the phone and saw that it was five o'clock on the mobile phone screen, and immediately woke up.

The time that Director Li can be detained is less than four hours.

Ning Zhi hurriedly left a note and left, one left in the dining room, and the other folded, and passed it through the crack in the door into Ning Yuan's bedroom.

The sky was just dawning, with the unique blue of the early morning.

Ning Zhi ran all the way to the detachment, entered the hall, and looked at the interrogation room at the very edge through the one-way perspective mirror, Director Li sat on the high stool and closed his eyes to recuperate. This kind of stool does not leave room for people to sleep, and after a long time, it will be very uncomfortable.

In the interrogation room next door, the lights were turned on.

Luo Shi had already arrived, sitting on the chair on the left. Opposite was a young woman, wrapped in an overcoat and with a somewhat messy hair. Sitting there, the whole person is capitalized and at a loss.

"You don't have to worry, although I came back to you overnight, but it's just because the case is urgent, so you need to know something, what do you know, just tell the truth."

Ning Zhi waited for half a minute, but didn't hear the opening remarks, and then realized that it was not Lin Zang who was sitting next to him, so he had to take the lead in speaking.

"I didn't mean to run away, I was just too worried, and a little scared." The woman pressed her head so low that her hair fell out, covering half of her face.

According to article 118 of the new Criminal Procedure Law, when interrogating a suspect, criminal investigators should inform the other party that if they truthfully confess, they can strive for leniency. On weekdays, Luo Shi is responsible for these words. He has always been straightforward during interrogation, which is fundamentally different from Lin Zang's endless riot operations.

It's just that it's just an inquiry at the moment, so he just comforted a few words as usual, and the woman's mood gradually stabilized, but in the gaze that raised her head and looked over, Ning Zhi still caught the dazed eyes very easily.

"You asked for leave to leave school because you knew the news that Lin Chaolu committed suicide by taking medicine, and the medicine was prescribed by your doctor, so you were afraid of taking responsibility, right?" Luo Shi asked, straight to the point.

"Yes." The woman replied with a word, and tears fell on the back of her hand. Ning Zhi handed over the tissue, and calmed down to listen to her slow statement.

"I heard from the third class that she died because of an overdose of sleeping pills, and I and Teacher Chen in the infirmary were very scared, and I knew some inside information, and I was afraid that it would affect more people, so I had to leave the school as a last resort."

"What's the inside story? Who are you afraid of? Luo Shi asked again.

"I ......" she paused for a moment, covered her mouth with her hand, Ning Zhi knew that this was a signal to escape, and immediately added, "Although there are audio and video recordings here, I can guarantee that after you go out, no one except the police will know what you said." ”

After saying this, the woman was still a little hesitant, and Ning Zhi simply made her words clear, "Lin Chaolu is suffering from depression, so she went to you for consultation." So, during the treatment process, did you ask the cause of her illness? ”

"I often need to do some similar counseling because of my personal situation, so I know that many times, although I don't have the desire to talk and I feel uncomfortable, I sit there and get asked something every time."

Ning Zhi said such a sentence again.

Luo Shi only thought that he didn't hear this, but the woman on the chair was surprised, glanced at Ning Zhi, lowered her head and thought for a while, and finally spoke. Although she knew that this was just a compliment caused by empathy, and Lin Chaolu's misfortune was indeed related to her.

"When Lin Chaolu first found me, it was about six months ago, and the reason why I was able to remember the time clearly was because it had just passed the National Day holiday......" Half a month late, she finally spoke, and soon fell into memories.

At the beginning, she just said that she was emotionally unstable, and because of her heavy studies, she had been backlogged for a long time, and she was afraid that she would have problems. There are often such students in middle school, but at a sensitive age, there are not many people who take the initiative to go to me for counseling, and Lin Chaolu is more special. But because the conversation is all about shallow issues, I think she is just because of the pressure, there is no big problem, many times I am quietly listening to what she says, and finally do a sandbox game to finish, she also said that her emotions have been relaxed, and she feels that there is nothing wrong with her. ”

Gradually, she came less and less, and many times, she used communication tools to talk to me, and I suggested that she have a sweet tooth, jog or listen to music when she was in a bad mood, and she also said that these were useful. I put this in my mind and thought it was just an adolescent situation. ”

"Until one time, it was already late, and if I remember correctly, it should have been the second period of evening self-study. My office is in the corridor, a little far from the school building. I was scared alone, so I planned to leave a few minutes early, so that when I got to the front of the school building, I should be able to meet the students who had gone to study at night. But as soon as I turned off my computer and before I could finish cleaning up, she ran into my office. ”

"The footsteps were so rapid that they shook the entire corridor, and when I think about it now, I feel terrified. She cried as soon as she entered, the kind that broke down. I was so anxious and scared that I had no idea what was going on. She cried for a long time, and I slowly calmed down, only to realize that her whole body was shaking. Although the school uniform jacket and pants are neat, there are folds on the back, and if you look closely, the collar of the sweater is messy, and I can see some scars on the neck and shoulders. ”

At this point, the woman's emotions were on the verge of collapse, but she came back, sat here, and could only continue.

"I was terrified when I saw the scars. She was a schoolgirl, and she ran to me like that at night, and I didn't dare to ask, but I could already guess what happened to her. She quickly told me what happened, saying that the person who hurt her was Director Li. Although Director Li served in the Political and Educational Department, he was very different from the old-fashioned image in everyone's impression, he was handsome, personable, and got along well with the students. He and Mr. Wen are very affectionate, and the two of them also raised a daughter. At that time, Lin Chaolu accused him, I only thought it was ridiculous, and I couldn't believe it at all. She seemed to have broken down that day and told me everything. said that she had been sexually assaulted for half a year, and was threatened not to reveal the news, otherwise she would stab her parents about her early love. Her early love happened to be in a circle with her boyfriend in the playground, and she was seen by Director Li. He also coaxed her that if someone else found out about it, everyone would isolate her and think she was not clean. I felt sad at the time, and I couldn't figure out what the hurt person had done wrong. ”

I believed her words, but this matter was too big, and if it was not handled well, it would have an irreparable impact on her and the school. She begged me not to tell her parents, so I had to find Ms. Wen, hoping that she, as the class teacher, could help deal with the matter. As a result, Mr. Wen told me that there was no such thing at all. Director Li is her husband, and she knows what kind of person the other party is. ”

Later, Lin Chaolu fainted during recess exercises, and since that time, there have been more rumors in the school. She started to have insomnia and came to talk to me. I don't feel good, but I also hope to cure her insomnia first, after all, she has not been able to rest, and her body will be severely loaded. And if the emotions are accumulated for a long time, it will also have a bad impact on the body. I took the liberty of suggesting that she take some sleep aids, and she listened to me, and after a while, told me that she was much better. ”

"I thought that the matter of her injury could be discussed in the long run, but where did I think that those drugs were actually a lifeline for her."

The woman finally started crying, and Luo Shi simply handed over the tissue box.

Ning Zhi put down the pen that made the transcript and took it to her to confirm the signature.

When Ning Yuan got up, it was already half past eight in the morning.

He was no stranger to waking up so late.

I finished washing, and it was eight forty.

took the small bag handed over by Aunt Li, and went to Ningzhi's bedroom to dig out the charged power bank and go out, at 8:45.

When I got downstairs to the detachment, I just stepped on the point to go to work.

There were a lot of people in the hall again, Ning Yuan had the heart to go over to take a look, and when he saw his brother beside him, he still chose to walk away, just raised the things in his hand and signaled, and quickly went upstairs.

Lin hid into the interrogation room where Director Li stayed, and from the outside, he could see the situation inside very clearly. Although he was still sitting well, the decadence of being forced to stay up all night was still vividly displayed.

The teacher in the psychological counseling room has been brought out by Ning Zhi, and he is now in the hall.

The three minors, Lin Mu and everyone else knew that she had been recovered, and they must have brought back brand new news. As for what Lin Zang will ask after getting a new confession, no one dares to guarantee.

Especially Zheng Mengze, his whole face was pale.

Ning Zhi naturally noticed it, took the person to another interrogation room, and within five minutes, he got a new answer.

He said that before the incident, he did quarrel with Lin Chaolu. And, it's not the harmless kind that I said before.

"Why are you arguing? Something to do with her being hurt? Ning Zhi asked.

"Before the incident, someone told me about her being hurt by the man. I was angry that I had been deceived for so long, and I felt that she didn't even tell me such a serious matter, and I quarreled with her in a hurry, but I didn't know that the next day, that kind of thing happened. ”

The heart of a teenager is always very sensitive, let alone facing such a terrible thing. As he spoke, a silent tear fell on the back of his hand, rubbed his sleeve, and fainted.

Ning Zhi didn't bother to ask him why he didn't say it before, naturally because he was afraid of taking responsibility, so he asked directly, "The person who told you is Tian Tongtong?" ”

Zheng Mengze raised his head to look at him, and after a few seconds, nodded.

A few minutes later, the hall was in chaos.

They are all family members or witnesses, and there is no need for them to be questioned in isolation.

Ning Zhi called Zheng Mengze over alone to ask him out of protection, but he also guessed that he would definitely not be able to help but say it.

"You know that your daughter's family loves your face the most, and it's not to talk to a boy to drive her to a dead end." Lin Muben and Tian Tongtong leaned very closely, and at this moment, they pushed her away.

"I just want to find one more person to figure it out, nothing else. At school, apart from me, what she believes in the most is of course her boyfriend. Tian Tongtong was pushed and staggered, and retorted loudly, with fear and sharpness in his voice.

As for Chen Xi, she stood next to her, looking a little at a loss.

Soon the police came to persuade them, but their voices were lowered, and finally they were dumbfounded.

Ning Zhi went back to the office on the third floor, and in less than a minute, someone knocked on the door outside.

The door opened, and there was no one to see, and the lunch box was seen. Ning Yuan handed the lunch box in, turned around and closed the door.

"Don't tell me you have carrots for breakfast?" Ning Zhi went to lift the lid while complaining, and when he opened it, his whole face was a little green.

"The burrito with carrots still tastes good. Otherwise, let Aunt Li try the juice for you next time. Ning Yuan was unmoved, and handed over the medicine box again, "You didn't take medicine last night, don't be caught by me for the second time." ”
