Chapter 337: Crime and Criminals
Gu Zhong probably didn't lie this time, but even if he did, we don't know. For example, when the medicine bottle was intercepted and killed, whether the old bird was the mastermind or Gu Zhong was the mastermind, and it was the old bird or the ancient bell who really killed the people, these things have been undocumented with the passage of time.
Because there were no witnesses, one of the two suspects died, and the other lied one after another, and it was not known which was true and which was false.
There are also details of Gu Zhong killing Qu Jiang, whether it is really as he said, it actually doesn't make much sense.
He has turned himself in, and based on his confession, the police have found evidence that supports his involvement in two murders. Legally, he could already be convicted.
"The longer we do what we do, the more we doubt what the truth is." Lin Ying sighed.
Indeed, in fact, it is not only the case, everyone can look back on their own life - do we really live every day clearly and transparently?
What others tell us, what we encounter ourselves, even what we see and hear with our own eyes, everything is just a part of the whole thing, or a fragment.
Because everyone, whether it is a big person or a small follower, we have limited life, limited vision, and limited brain power, and we are all forced to follow our own path, go forward, go forward, and then meet someone, encounter something.
As for why we met him, met her, and met it, we can't fully grasp it, and it's not within our control.
There are thousands of roads and thousands of people in this world, and we are like two-dimensional space creatures, we can only see our own path, we can only stay on the two-dimensional surface, and no one can open a three-dimensional perspective to look down on the world.
That's why the truth is hard to find, because we can't see the whole picture.
But the more we can't find the truth, the more we want to explore the logic and emotions behind the events.
However, Hua Hu has a different view on these.
"In the Shura realm, a crime is a crime, and we don't pay attention to any reasoning and law, and we don't want to know the mental process behind their crimes. If you commit a serious crime, you can just kill them. β
After the Qujiang case was completely cracked, Hua said to me.
I said, her reasoning is not wrong, but this is the world, as a person who studies crime, not only to punish crime, but also to prevent crime, to study the motives and psychology of a criminal, may push him and others, solve some hidden dangers in the mechanism, eliminate potential risks in time, so that people do not commit crimes.
"Isn't that a chicken-and-egg issue? Tell me, did the criminals come first, or did they come first? Hua Hu asked, "Isn't the most effective mechanism to kill chickens and monkeys, and make an example of a hundred?" For those felons, wouldn't it be more deterrent to directly and openly peel and cramp? β
"The method you mentioned has been used by humans before, and it doesn't seem to be very effective. Moreover, it is time to pay attention to human rights. β
"Human rights, hahahaha, eat and support, you human beings have no rights, you are just grass mustard in the world. If the Asura can communicate with you, let alone the earth, even this small world may be robbed to nothing. β
I was a little angry, so I suppressed my anger and said, "So, if the Asura invades our space, we will become your slaves?" β
"Hahahaha, slave? You also think too highly of yourselves, and human beings are just becoming the food of the asuras. Hua Hu said triumphantly.
I was furious and slammed the table and stood up.
"Do you want to eat me too, maybe one day I'll become a snack in your mouth?!"
Hua Yan looked at me seriously, she suddenly opened her "bloody mouth" and attacked me, I subconsciously dodged back, and was kissed by her on the face.
"Hahaha, honey, do you think I can eat you?"
"Now that you're parasitic in someone else's body, of course you can't eat me - if you restore the Asura Primal Body?"
Hua Yan cupped his cheeks and thought for a while, and said, "That-I guess you can only plug between my teeth." But I'm pretty myself, the kind that overwhelms everything, much more amazing than the fairies of the heavenly realm. When the time comes, you'll fall in love with me just by looking at it. β
"Would I love a giantess?"
"Maybe."
I thought about it and couldn't help but worry.
"You didn't come to the human world to be a scout, to feel the situation in the human world, and then lure the Asura over and destroy this place, right?"
"What a joke."
"Then why are you here?"
"I forgot...... I really forgot about ......" As soon as she mentioned this topic, she became sad again, "I just have a vague impression that someone is chasing me, and then I accidentally escaped to the world." β
"Well, good reason."
I thought about it for a while, and then asked, "When you interrogated Gu Zhong today, how did you say it in a set way." β
"Hahaha," Hua Yu took out the tablet from his schoolbag and shook it at me, "It's all the dialogue I remember from the drama, and I just changed the words slightly." β
As she spoke, she suddenly remembered something, and scratched her head.
"I've had a strange feeling lately."
"What does it feel like?"
"I always feel like somebody is staring at me."
I was taken aback - because of this, Shen Yu also said it to me yesterday.
"What kind of person, how do you stare at you?"
"I can't tell clearly, it's like having a pair of eyes hidden behind my hair, and I can't tell whether it's a god or a ghost, a man or a woman."
"Can you find its bearings?"
"It's hard to tellβmaybe it's an illusion after coming to the world."
"What are you two talking about here?" Lin Ying walked over with the car keys, and she said to Hua Yan, "Mr. Shen, thanks to you this time, the evidence was not very sufficient, but the two of us cooperated quite tacitly - do you want to go with me for a case?" β
I was stunned for a moment, because I wanted to call Yecheng in the afternoon, and I also made an appointment with Wen Tingxu, and I also wanted to go to him to discuss going to Xinjiang.
"Can you give us a half-day off?" I asked.
"Okay, then I'll go first." Lin Ying took out her mobile phone and sent me an address, "If you two are busy and have time, you can come here to find me." β
I took the address and slipped it into my pocket. After seeing her drive and disappear into the next intersection, she took out her mobile phone and tried to dial the phone that Shen Yu wanted to make yesterday.
"Hey, hey!" The voice of an elderly woman came from inside.
I'm so happy that this time it's finally connected!
"Excuse me, is Captain Garlic at home? It's Captain Shamushak. β
"Oh, are you looking for old garlic? Wait, wait. β
The person on the phone seemed to slowly lower the microphone, but I could still faintly hear her shouting.
"Old garlic, old garlic! Someone is looking for you! β
