Chapter 143: Confession
Huaiyin had a particularly intuitive feeling that these policemen were not friendly to her, could it be that their questioning deliberately led her to admit the crime?
She didn't know, her head hurt a little.
Later, she learned that people didn't treat her as a suspect, they had subconsciously regarded her as a criminal, and they had evidence in their hands.
Huaiyin's throat was about to smoke, and the blood in his body was boiling and impetuous.
The male police officer said: "Before interrogating you, the hospital had verified that Li Sisi died at 10:15 p.m. after rescue efforts failed. If you confess leniently, or admit to impulsive killing, for the sake of your good attitude, you may be able to reduce the sentence by a few years, but if you refuse to confess and do not cooperate with our police......"
"Li Sisi is dead?"
Huaiyin covered her aching temples, still unable to accept the fact.
A few hours ago, Li Sisi was a living person who talked and laughed with her, the woman said that Lu Shijing's heart had never wavered, and they only needed to cooperate, and this matter could not be disclosed to her, and she also encouraged herself to give Lu Shijing a little more time, and when the time was ripe, they would dissolve the marriage.
She was so touched that she almost believed it.
However, why did Li Sisi die in a blink of an eye, and the death was unknown.
In the following time, Huaiyin kept repeatedly emphasizing that she had not killed anyone, and that the clues and characters she could provide were all explained in detail, and the two police officers seemed to be against her, and she had to admit that she would not give up.
I used to watch Hong Kong TVB's criminal investigation dramas, and I always felt that the methods of criminal investigation and interrogation existed in Chinese TV, but I didn't expect that today's immersive experience would be so painful. From time to time, she closed her eyes and covered her head, but the indiscriminate bombardment outside continued.
Is the situation really bad for her?
β¦β¦
The next day, the murder at the Marriott Hotel inevitably became a big deal and became the focus of discussion among the citizens.
Due to the bad news of Li Sisi and the arrest of the suspect Huaiyin, Donghui Group's stock price began to fluctuate and continued to decline.
At this time, the most tricky thing is Lu Shijing, his fiancΓ©e was killed, and the suspect turned out to be his ex-girlfriend.
This case has been a hot search for a long time, so let's not mention it for the time being.
Inside the police station, the atmosphere was tense.
"Mr. Lu, Huaiyin is now the biggest suspect, and he can't visit casually." The representative of the police station expressed great difficulty.
Lu Shijing's brows were tightly locked, and bruises were faintly visible under his eyes, and after only one night's work, the stubble around his chin was faintly black and blue.
Although the other party's tone was polite, Lu Shijing clearly felt that the police attached great importance to this case, and because Li Sinian and Li Sisi were not their own nationality, but the nationality of country M, and they were veritable overseas Chinese, so if they couldn't handle it well, country M would have to intervene.
Fortunately, this stalemate did not last long, and it was only after Wang Yang and Haishi's leading lawyer arrived.
Lawyers are definitely different from ordinary people, the laws and regulations are brought out, so that people have no way to refuse, people are originally acting according to the rules, and there is nothing unreasonable about it.
"Huaiyin, your defense lawyer is here."
Huaiyin, who was so sleepy that he couldn't do it, suddenly heard this sentence and suddenly woke up for a while.
She wasn't hungry or thirsty, because the police didn't abuse her, they just took turns to mentally interrogate her, which was definitely a torment for Huaiyin herself, and there was a sense of exhaustion between her eyebrows.
Who hired a lawyer?
"Miss Huai, you don't need to know who I invited you, now that I am your defense lawyer, you can fully trust me and tell me all the truth, and you can't hide it a little."
The appearance of this lawyer brought the last glimmer of hope to the helpless Huaiyin. However, the lawyer told her very cruelly that her current testimony and physical witnesses are very unfavorable to her.
Even though Huaiyin had already expected it, she only had one insistence, she didn't kill anyone, this was her confidence.
The lawyer said: "First of all, the surveillance video, the police have shown me, after you and Li Sisi and Li Sisi's assistant entered the conference room, her assistant came out quickly, and then for 20 minutes, no one went in or came out...... In the end, it was Li Sisi's assistant and the hotel staff who found that the door was locked, so they looked for the key to open it......"
Then it was found that Li Sisi had been killed, and Huaiyin also fell next to Li Sisi's body, and there was no one else.
That's what happened to the surveillance in the hallway.
"And what about the surveillance in the conference room?"
"There are some problems with the monitoring in the conference room, and only part of it can be repaired, but the part that has been repaired is still very unfavorable to you, no third person was found in the video, and the most important thing is that the murder weapon, that is, the bottle of the vase, only has your fingerprints."
Hearing this, Huaiyin's whole person was not good, and sure enough, it was all a fluke before, and all of this was aimed at her.
"Someone framed me, I don't know who it is, I promise you, I really didn't kill Li Sisi." Huaiyin's throat was obscure, and the repeated sentence could no longer represent anything.
Human and material evidence, all the evidence is complete, only she is still insisting.
But she is in a clear mood, she is wronged, she can't let herself be wronged.
"I know, Miss Huai, I don't disbelieve you, if you tell me the details well, I will definitely help you."
"Thank you."
β¦β¦
After the lawyer met Huaiyin, he communicated with the police station, and now bail is impossible, he left the police station and got into Lu Shijing's car nearby.
The lawyer frowned, and only a few steps away from the cool air, his chubby body sweated a lot.
"How?" Lu Shijing didn't look at him, his eyes were slightly dull, and his breath was slightly restrained.
The lawyer shook his head, "The situation is not optimistic. β
"How sure are you?" Lu Shijing's face tightened, and his side face was sharp and cold.
The lawyer still frowned, swallowed his saliva and said: "Mr. Lu, unless there is key evidence or witnesses in the case, otherwise, even if Miss Huai refuses to admit to murder, she will still be prosecuted for intentional homicide in the end, I really ...... this case."
Not sure.
Unexpectedly, in the next second, Lu Shijing said heavily: "Don't forget, you are the best lawyer in Haishi, don't you want to mix here?" β
Frightened, the lawyer sweated coldly, and after a while, he snorted and said, "Mr. Lu, if Miss Huai refuses to admit guilt, she will be sentenced to at least ten years." So my opinion is that manslaughter, so that the sentence can be less......"
"Bastard!"
Before the lawyer finished speaking, he was scolded by Lu Shijing.
Although he was older, he was indeed shocked by the momentum of a young man in his early thirties.
"I believe she didn't kill anyone, you have to help her get away with it, not force her to confess, understand?"
"Mr. Lu, I can only do my best."
β¦β¦
Huaiyin has been in the interrogation room for I don't know how many days, every day after waking up, it is endless interrogation, she is a little tired and tired, but there is no way, she doesn't know when this dark day is the end, whether she can wash away her grievances.
In the past two days, the lawyer has come more and more frequently, but she obviously felt that the lawyer's attitude has changed subtly, she asked him, is there any hope, he was secretive and silent, just told her not to worry, the police invited other trace identification experts to continue the investigation, I believe that new evidence will come out soon.
Such reassurance did little to her anymore.
It wasn't until the fourth day that the lawyer said to her, "Miss Huai, there is something here, you should calm down first, don't get too excited, can you do it?" β
Huaiyin nodded, the worst results are here, what could be worse.
The lawyer's eyes are solemn; "I tell you the development of the case every day, and you know very well that there is no new evidence, and all the circumstances are very unfavorable to you, so I suggest that Miss Huai still plead guilty, manslaughter, plus you take the initiative to admit guilt, I can also give you some mental and physical proofs, and you don't have to be sentenced for long...... You think about it, I'll come back to you tomorrow morning, we have to agree before the court session, okay? Please believe me, I'm here for your good. β
After the lawyer left, Huaiyin's whole person was not good, and he was on the verge of collapse.
Why do you want her to admit something she hasn't done before? If she doesn't admit it, she can appeal, and all the evidence points to her, what exactly should she do.
Huaiyin grabbed his messy hair, his eyes were deeply sunken, and the few pounds of flesh that had finally grown back fell straight down in a straight line after a few days in the interrogation room.
The exhaustion between her eyebrows became heavier and heavier, it was a kind of physical and mental exhaustion that could not be described in words, and she could not withstand any toss and destruction.
In such a torturous few days, Lu Shijing didn't even come to see her once, and she seemed to be so desperate that she couldn't stand up anymore.
That glance in the hotel, will it be goodbye.
Huaiyin's heart was silent, throbbing, boundless.
β¦β¦
After the lawyer finished talking from Huaiyin, he reported to Lu Shijing, and only Wang Yang and Lu Shijing were left in the car. After being silent for a while, Wang Yang chose to ask: "Mr. Lu, since you care about Miss Huai and stay at the police station every day, why don't you go in to see her?" β
On this day, even Wang Yang couldn't look at it, and he was inexplicably distressed and anxious for Lu Shijing.
Lu Shijing's face was expressionless, and his eyes didn't fluctuate and asked, "Wang Yang, do you think I did the right thing?" β
Wang Yang frowned, "Mr. Lu, this matter can't be dragged on, there are people with ill intentions who brush up on negative news and heat every day, which is very bad for the group." You've done your best. β
"Did you do your best? But how I don't feel like I'm taking good care of her. The smile on the corner of Lu Shijing's mouth was a little light, and there was also sarcasm and self-deprecation.
"Mr. Lu......" Wang Yang wanted to say that these might be Wei Yanxiu's tricks, and he sabotaged them many times.
After a while, the phone vibrated and began to buzz, which was very annoying.
Lu Shijing didn't mean to answer at all, Wang Yang thought that if there was anything important, he would immediately pick up the phone, but his face was shocked.
"Who called?"
Wang Yang's expression became indignant: "If you don't take it, it's Wei Yanxiu, this guy is purely here to show off." β
