Chapter 088: The End of the Skinning Case
When I went to the police station again, the atmosphere at the police station was still very depressing. Early in the morning, Jiang Jun did not go with us, and when we woke up, Jiang Jun had already gone to the police station. Wang Xin still sat at the dining table for breakfast, and after breakfast, he slowly drove us to the police station.
Although the murderer has been identified in the case, there are still some suspicious points that require further interrogation and evidence collection. Instead of being relieved by the identification of the murderer, the police officers in the police station were even busier, because everyone was thinking about another thing: Zhou Xiaoyu was under the age of fourteen when he committed the crime, is there really no way for the law to punish him?
As soon as we entered the police station, we heard Xie Jing's angry roar, which came from the police officer's office. Before I could hear Xie Jing screaming, he stepped out of the police officer's office in a rage. At this time, we were preparing to enter Wang Xin's office.
Xie Jing almost bumped into us head-on, and after seeing that it was us, Xie Jing vomited bitterness. Xie Jing called the captain of the criminal police corps before 12 o'clock last night to wake him up, and the other party did not expect such a major development in the case at all. The captain called the people in the team up for a meeting overnight, and after the discussion, everyone could not argue.
According to Wang Xin's "military order", he can resign without taking the blame, the team always urged Wang Xin to solve the case, but after last night's incident, the team slowed down. The captain of the team told Xie Jing not to be in a hurry and to sort out the evidence as thoroughly as possible.
I understand what the corps is thinking, the media in Guangdong City are always paying attention to this case, and the residents of the entire Guangdong City are aware of this tragic case, and everyone hopes that the police station can give an explanation to the masses. At this time, if we tell everyone that the murderer is not criminally responsible because he was under the age of 14 at the time of committing the crime, not only the police department, but also the procuratorial and judicial organs will be under unprecedented public pressure.
"Team Wang, Professor Li, you see, is there really no way for Zhou Xiaoyu to be criminally responsible?" Xie Jing asked us.
Wang Xin didn't answer, and motioned for Xie Jing to ask me, I thought about it, said the same opinion as the general team, and asked Xie Jing to sort out all the evidence in detail first. I didn't do this because I was afraid that the criminal police brigade would suffer from the pressure of public opinion, but there were indeed many facts that had to be re-evidenced, such as the incident that happened between Zhou Xiaoruo and the old man in the corridor.
Xie Jing had already sent someone to the chemical store that Zhou Xiaoyu said to retrieve the surveillance camera, and Zhou Xiaoyu had indeed gone there many times to buy relevant chemicals. Zhou Xiaoyu is very smart, he has been there many times, and the amount of each purchase is not much, so as not to make others suspicious.
It is also for this reason that some people question the possibility of a child who has just turned 14 years old to kill someone. Zhou Xiaoyu's method of killing people is too cruel, and the method is very clever, just from the skin, although the human skin has a large damage, but this still requires more superb techniques, as well as its such as leaving no fingerprint traces, using chemical methods, killing and transferring corpses, passing bamboo poles through the body of the deceased, etc., no one dares to believe that a fourteen-year-old child can do it.
I roughly calculated that there were several hours from Zhou Xiaoruo leaving the community to Zhou Xiaoyu returning to the community with his family. Zhou Xiaoruo's community to the small waterhole where the crime occurred, the fastest speed of walking, it takes more than an hour to go back and forth, that is to say, after Zhou Xiaoyu kills someone, he must quickly peel the skin, use chemical reagents, and then penetrate a bamboo pole from under Zhou Xiaoruo's crotch, and finally drag the body to the second scene, there can be no too much interval between this series of things, so that it is possible to complete it within those hours.
The most terrifying thing is that after Zhou Xiaoyu killed someone, he could still be so calm, and he barely showed any horses' feet, which made people feel even more incredible. So Xie Jing decided to start with whether someone instigated Zhou Xiaoyu or whether Zhou Xiaoyu was an accomplice, and then check it carefully.
After the conversation, we didn't find Jiang Jun, Wang Xin asked where Jiang Jun went, Xie Jing also said he didn't know, only said that he came to the police station to learn about the decision of the corps, and then went out in a hurry.
Sitting in Wang Xin's office, Wang Xin asked us what we planned. I understand what he meant, Wang Xin decided to let Jiang Jun follow me, Jiang Jun has not fully known, Wang Xin is afraid that we will leave in too much hurry, and he will not have time to communicate with Jiang Jun and go through the formalities for Jiang Jun.
If Jiang Jun wants to follow me for a long time, he will definitely have to resign from the criminal police brigade in Guangdong City, and it will take a little time to go through the formalities.
I reassured Wang Xin that I promised him that I would not regret what I promised. I'm not in a hurry to leave Guangdong City, firstly, the beginning and end of Zhou Xiaoruo's skinning case has not yet ended, secondly, Shen Nuo has not brought me the news that his superiors have set up a task force for the woman in red, and most importantly, I have to go and investigate the abandoned factory.
After asking to see Sun Zaiyun, Xu Yi and I went to the detention room again. When I saw Sun Zaiyun, he was no longer as indifferent as before, he held my hand and thanked him a thousand times, saying that I cleared him of the suspicion of murder. Sun Zaiyun is unwilling to bear criminal responsibility that does not belong to him, let alone being sentenced to death.
After sitting down, I told Sun Zaiyun that although Zhou Xiaoruo's death had nothing to do with him, he still had to squat in a cell for a short time. Sun Zaiyun's crime is relatively difficult to define, but whether it is a large amount of fraud or organizing a cult, and after the punishment for the crime of intentional injury is combined, the punishment will be relatively severe.
Sun Zaiyun waved his hand and said that he didn't care at all, and it wasn't the first time he had been in prison anyway. Speaking of this, he sighed, Sun Zaiyun is not young anymore, he said that after he comes out of prison this time, I am afraid that he will not be able to support himself, and he also joked that he might as well squat in it for the rest of his life.
Sun Zaiyun has no wife or children, and his only relative is his brother. But I came in and talked to Sun Zaiyun for so long, and Sun Zaiyun didn't mention his brother. Xu Yi sat next to me and did not speak, and since this meeting was not an interrogation or questioning, there was no other record of the criminal police present.
Xu Yi was nervous, she knew the purpose of our trip, we were going to ask about the abandoned factory. Since Xu Yi came back, I have asked Xu Yi more than once about what happened in the years when she disappeared, but Xu Yi's memory of those years is too vague to remember many things at all.
As long as Xu Yi thinks about it seriously, her head will be as uncomfortable as a fire, and her chest is also very stuffy. Xu Yi is very strange at times, and I know that all this has something to do with Xu Yi's disappearance, and those years must have left an unusually heavy shadow on Xu Yi's subconscious.
No one loves Xu Yi more than me, and if Xu Yi remembers, she will definitely tell me, and I will find out everything.
"You said you and your brother used to work in that abandoned factory?" I asked Sun Zaiyun. When talking about the abandoned factory, Xu Yi's two hands crossed on the table trembled slightly, and she stared nervously at Sun Zaiyun, waiting for him to answer.
After I mentioned Sun Jae-yun's brother, Sun Jae-yun's face froze.
"Don't mention him to me, I don't want to mention him!" Sun Jae-yun was obviously upset, and he turned his face sideways to prevent me from seeing his expression.
I thought for a moment and said again: "Sun Zaiyun, you can not mention your brother, but please be sure to tell me the information about the abandoned factory in detail, this is very important to me." ”
Sun Zaiyun turned his head and frowned. He said that if he mentioned an abandoned factory, he had to mention his brother, so he didn't want to say anything.
Sun Zaiyun's performance made me feel even more wrong, but I asked many times, but Sun Zaiyun just refused to say, and finally became angry. I also decided not to make it difficult for others, and if Sun Zaiyun didn't say anything, I could also find out the information about the abandoned factory and his brother through other means.
I remember that the criminal police said before that they called Sun Zaiyun's brother to inform him that Sun Zaiyun had been arrested, but Sun Zaiyun's brother not only ignored Sun Zaiyun, but also hung up the phone in a fit of rage.
Xu Yi and I immediately found the criminal policeman who said this.
