Chapter 120: A Case Outside the Case
The news that Leng Shiguang's case had reached an enforcement settlement was only known to Chen Molei when he went to work in the afternoon.
When he learned the content of the agreement from Liang Zhongxin, not only did he not feel relaxed at all, but he felt that something was pressing in his heart: Isn't this the alliance under the city, what is going on with Leng Shiguang? How could he have signed such an unequal treaty? This is so unconscionable!
According to Liang Zhongxin, there is nothing bad about such a result, the settlement agreement between Leng Shiguang and Gong Yanliang was reached voluntarily, and when the agreement is fulfilled, even if the case is concluded, the enforcement police will have one less trouble, isn't this the case we are pursuing.
To be honest, Chen Molei also thought so, but his conscience jumped out again and again and said that this kind of passable practice is not in line with a judge's judicial conscience.
Chen Molei wanted to go to Leng Shiguang to ask for an explanation, but after thinking about it, today was his daughter's birthday, so it was better not to spoil his fun.
Early the next morning, Chen Molei drove his own car to the North Park Community.
Yesterday Leng Shiguang celebrated his daughter's birthday at home, but today he is not at home necessarily, Chen Molei thought that he would rush over earlier, he should still be able to see Leng Shiguang, and ask him in person what the settlement agreement is all about, if he goes late, I am afraid he will never know the truth behind the settlement agreement in his life.
When he arrived at the gate of the North Park Community, Chen Molei found that he still didn't know the specific address of Leng Shiguang's parents. He asked the doorman, who didn't know either.
The doorman said, do you have a phone? Call him to come out and pick you up.
Hearing this, Chen Molei remembered that when he went to Qishun Carton Factory that day, he asked for Leng Shiguang's mobile phone number from Liao Qichang. So, he pulled out his mobile phone number and dialed it.
The mobile phone was dialed, but only a beeping sound could be heard, and Chen Molei called three times in a row, each time.
Probably because Leng Shiguang saw that it was an unfamiliar number, so he didn't answer. So, Chen Molei sent a text message to Leng Shiguang, saying that he was Chen Molei, the executive director of the court, and wanted to talk to him about the case.
After anxiously waiting for more than 10 minutes, he finally received Leng Shiguang's reply.
Leng Shiguang said that he was already at the Dongzhou Railway Station, and in half an hour, the ticket inspection would begin.
Railway station! Ticket! Could it be that Leng Shiguang is leaving Dongzhou again? Chen Molei immediately set off and rushed to the train station, he hurried all the way, and finally saw Leng Shiguang before the train left.
Leng Shiguang and his wife sat in the northwest corner of the waiting hall, both wearing baseball caps and sunglasses, as if deliberately covering their faces.
Chen Molei said straight to the point: "I really don't understand, why did you sign that settlement agreement with Gong Yanliang?" I don't understand, why do you still want to leave Dongzhou even though the case is closed? What the hell is going on? Do you have something unspeakable? ”
Leng Shiguang did not answer directly, but said in his words: "It is not so much that it is difficult to hide, but that it is more appropriate to say that it is forced to do so." He looked at his watch and said, "There's still some time, let's go outside." ”
Chen Molei followed Leng Shiguang out of the waiting hall and sat down in the shade of a tree in the northeast corner of the railway station square.
"Director Chen, I have heard of you for a long time, and I am not afraid to tell you the truth. Since you're here, I'll tell you everything. After speaking, Leng Shiguang told Chen Molei the truth behind the settlement agreement.
Chen Molei listened, and then he knew that Leng Shiguang was not the kind of old man he imagined, but had other difficulties.
But Chen Molei still disagreed: "That's why you signed the settlement agreement?" Is that why you left Dongzhou? You should know that now is a society under the rule of law, and those people don't dare to mess around, is it because you owe a lot of gambling debts, you don't dare to leave Dongzhou and come back? That's too much fuss. ”
Chen Molei continued: "In my opinion, you might as well stay, report the case to the public security organs, and cooperate with the public security organs to find out all the things about their opening of casinos and illegal debt collection." You must know that gambling debts are illegal debts and are not protected by law. As long as the matter is clear, you will no longer have to be frightened, and you will no longer have to hide in Tibet. In addition, according to what you said, you signed a settlement agreement with Gong Yanliang under duress, as long as the facts are clarified, you can apply to the court to revoke or change the settlement agreement to reduce the undue losses. That's the best way to solve the problem! ”
Leng Shiguang sighed and said, "Director Chen, I believe in your professional answers, and I believe that you are for my good, but do you think Dongzhou is really peaceful in the world?" ”
He paused for a moment and continued: "You are a law enforcement officer, and it may not be appropriate to talk about Dongzhou's problems in front of you, but in fact, Dongzhou is really not a peaceful world. ”
Leng Shiguang's tone seemed to reveal all kinds of helplessness: "Let's take gambling debts as an example, although the current creditors don't dare to blatantly use knives and guns, they still have a lot of means." You have been a judge for so many years, you should have heard of Chang'e running to the moon, Su Qin's back sword, buckle oil, these methods are enough. My parents are old and their daughters are still young, and those people don't dare to do anything to them, because if something happens, none of them can afford to take this responsibility. But my wife and I are different, the more time we stay in Dongzhou, the more dangerous it will be. Director Chen, I'm really not making a fuss, I'm forced to leave Dongzhou! ”
Hearing this, Chen Molei suddenly didn't know what to say.
He worked as a clerk and judge in the Criminal Court, and of course he knew what Leng Shiguang meant by these three words:
These are very clever tricks, and the clever thing is that the tortured person will endure physical torture and pain, but will not leave scars, so it will be difficult for the case-handling personnel to obtain evidence, as long as the torturer bites to death and does not admit it, the case-handling personnel cannot do anything to them.
This has always been a long-standing and difficult problem that has plagued law enforcement and case handling. In addition, reminiscent of the fact that in recent years, the criminal division of the Dongzhou Court has tried nearly 900 criminal cases every year, so it is true that Dongzhou cannot be said to be peaceful in the world, and Leng Shiguang's worries cannot be said to be unreasonable.
After being silent for a while, Chen Molei spoke: "Okay, since you have to leave Dongzhou, I won't persuade you." However, I don't think you should just leave Dongzhou, and before leaving, you should go to the police to report the case. Think about it, you are also in your forties, old and young, you can't always hide like this, right? If you want to hide like this, when will it be a head? ”
Leng Shiguang smiled bitterly: "Why didn't I think about it? But do you find it useful to report the crime? He shook his head and said, "It's useless." I have been involved in gambling and know that gambling is not easy to catch, not only is the location hidden, but there are also people who want to catch it, and it is almost impossible to catch it. Even if they are caught, no one admits to opening a casino, and in the end, it is at most a public security punishment. ”
He took a sip of water and continued: "There is also the matter of illegal debt collection, and I have consulted a lawyer before. The lawyer said that those tactics would only cause minor injuries at best, and if there was no real evidence of illegal detention, they would be detained for up to 15 days, and when they came out, they might retaliate even more violently. If you say so, what else do I report? Isn't this provoking them? I'm not afraid of your jokes, I've already thought about it, and since I can't afford to provoke it, then I'll hide far away. All I can do now is take it one step at a time, and as for the future, I'll leave it for later. ”
It is difficult to change the ideological understanding, Chen Molei knew that he could not convince Leng Shiguang, so he decided to change his strategy, he asked quietly: "Do your parents know about your business?" ”
"I didn't know it at first, but then I couldn't hide it. However, they all hid it from my daughter for me. They told my daughter that her parents didn't come home all year round because they were busy with business outside. My daughter is still young, and I don't want her to worry about it. You should be able to understand that. ”
Speaking of this, Leng Shiguang smiled a little happily: "Thanks to the equity dividends of Qishun Carton Factory, I can buy whatever my daughter wants, otherwise, my daughter may not be able to hide it." This is also the only thing I can do for her as a father. ”
Chen Molei was waiting for this sentence, and he immediately seized the opportunity and said, "Then aren't you afraid that when your daughter grows up, she will say that you are a coward?" ”
Chen Molei used the agitation method, he wanted to use the image of his father in his daughter's mind to stimulate Leng Shiguang, but it seemed that the agitation method did not work for Leng Shiguang.
Leng Shiguang didn't answer, but looked down at his watch and said, "It's almost time, I should go to the waiting hall." He stood up, took the initiative to stretch out his right hand, and said, "Director Chen, no matter what, thank you very much for coming to see me off in person, thank you." ”
Chen Molei shook his hand, but he didn't know what to say, so he had to wish him a smooth journey.
Leng Shiguang let out a long sigh, put away his heavy heart, and said with a smile: "I heard that the snow scene of the Songhua River is very beautiful, and I have wanted to see it for a long time. I think it won't be long before my wish comes true. Goodbye, Director Chen. With that, he turned around and hurried in the direction of the waiting hall.
Chen Molei stood where he was and didn't leave, he was unwilling to leave it at that, he was still racking his brains about how to solve the problem Leng Shiguang said.
Qin Huaiyuan always said that Chen Molei was an old and angry young man, and at Ben Wu's age, there were still many things that he couldn't see.
In fact, Chen Molei is not unaccustomed to it, but unaccustomed to it. He admits that there are still many injustices in this society, and he also admits that it is difficult to change these injustices on his own, but as long as he sees it, he will do his best to change it, and change as much as he can.
This is not only because he is a judge, but also because he came from an era when the legal system was not perfect, when he was almost expelled from school because his sister's birth violated family planning. If he has suffered injustice himself, he does not want others to suffer injustice.
Walking to the door of the waiting hall, Leng Shiguang's mobile phone rang, he took out his mobile phone and saw that it was a text message from Chen Molei: If you don't want to go to the public security organ to report the case, you can write an anonymous report letter, don't underestimate the current case-handling ability of the public security organ, besides, you are in a foreign place, there is no safety worry, it is better to do this than to do nothing.
After reading the text message, he turned around and waved at Chen Molei, and then lined up into the waiting hall.
Three days later, Chen Molei received a courier mail from Harbin, he opened it and saw that it was two letters sent by Leng Shiguang, one was a letter of thanks and the other was a report letter.
The thank you letter was specially addressed to Chen Molei, and the letter read: Director Chen, thank you! If it weren't for you, maybe I would have been hiding like this for the rest of my life, it was you who mentioned my daughter and stabbed my dignity as a father, and it was you who rushed to the train station to persuade me and let me see your determination to do justice. Therefore, I have decided to believe you, believe you, please help me forward this report letter to the public security organs. I wish you a safe life!
After reading the thank you letter, Chen Molei picked up the report letter. The content of the report letter is written in great detail, when and where Leng Shiguang participated in gambling, who were present, who won and who lost, and whose gambling debts he owed, and when and where the creditor collected debts from him, Leng Shiguang explained these details clearly.
On the same day, Chen Molei handed over the report letter to Zheng Xudong and repeatedly told him to keep it confidential. He thought that it would take two months to get a result, but he didn't think that only ten days later, Zheng Xudong rushed over and said that everyone had been caught and the case was solved.
Chen Molei was surprised and delighted: "How did you solve the case?" That's too fast, isn't it? ”
"How dare we neglect the tasks assigned by your Director Chen?" Zheng Xudong said as if he was making a report: "After receiving the report letter from you, our bureau attached great importance to it and immediately became a task force, with me as the team leader......"
"Alright, don't be poor." Chen Molei interrupted Zheng Xudong's report and said, "Just say it directly, how to solve the case." ”
Zheng Xudong smiled and said proudly: "It's very simple! Leng Shiguang's report letter is very detailed. Based on the details of the report letter, we found one of the gamblers, turned him back, and asked him to secretly record when he went to gamble again. Later, the confession and recording of our gambler arrested all the people involved in gambling. ”
Zheng Xudong became more and more energetic: "At the beginning, the gang only admitted to the gambling that was recorded, and no one admitted to opening a casino, let alone asking for gambling debts in the form of illegal detention. In this case, we used a strategy of individual breakdowns.
We told them separately that the person who only participated in gambling was detained for a maximum of 15 days, but if we could provide major clues about the case, we could make up for the mistake and reduce the punishment, and of course, we would also keep the information confidential for the person who provided the clue.
Those people know what is a major clue, and they also know that if they say it, some people will be involved in criminal cases, so they are very strict at first.
So, we used psychological warfare again, so that those who often gamble and lose feel wronged, first they can't bear it, and then they start to scramble to report others, and then they start to bite each other, and when they finish biting each other, the case will be solved. ”
Speaking of this, Zheng Xudong said with a little emotion: "But I really didn't expect that in just ten days, the amount of gambling by these people was as high as 10 million, which is definitely a big case in Dongzhou!" After speaking, he raised his eyebrows and asked Chen Molei: "How is it, doesn't it sound exciting?" ”
Chen Molei nodded, chuckled and said, "Well, it's not only wonderful, but also bloody." By the way, the gambler who was rebelled by you must have a very bad idea, right? ”
"Isn't that nonsense?" Zheng Xudong said: "Have you ever seen a gambler who won money take the initiative to denounce himself? ”
Chen Molei smiled and said, "Then you must have spent a lot of effort to choose this target of rebellion." ”
Zheng Xudong was suddenly stunned: "You didn't follow us to handle the case, how did you know about this?" ”
"Isn't that easy?" Chen Molei analyzed it honestly and said: "If you want to determine whose idea is the back, you have to track and observe the changes in his clothing, food, housing and transportation, who wins and who loses, which can be best reflected in these aspects." Isn't it necessary to make a lot of effort to collect and judge this information? ”
Zheng Xudong listened, slapped the table, and said, "I'll just say that you are suitable to be a criminal policeman." When you applied for law school, you chose the wrong door. If you had chosen the police academy, maybe the position of our chief would have been yours now. ”
Chen Molei leaned back in his chair and said, "It's not too late now, you go back and ask you Director Meng Fanbin to see if he is willing to abdicate and make way for Xian." ”
Zheng Xudong laughed: "Pull it down, I don't dare to ask, if I ask, he will have to pick my skin?" ”
He waved his hand and said, "Forget it, I won't talk nonsense with you." I'm coming to you today, but there's another thing. As he spoke, he took out a photo from his bag and put it in front of Chen Molei: "I think you might be interested in this person." ”
Chen Molei picked up the photo and saw that it was a man, in his early forties, holding a sign on his chest with his name - Ma Biao.
"Ma Biao? What does this man do? Chen Molei asked.
"He's the one we caught in this operation, and he's a lookout." Zheng Xudong explained: "During the interrogation, didn't we say that providing major clues could reduce the punishment, and a suspect who opened a casino had nothing to offer, so he provided a clue outside the case." According to his confession, this Ma Biao used to be a driver for Liao Wenchang, and Liao Wenchang also handed over the errands of giving gifts to leading cadres to Ma Biao. I wonder if you're not working on the Yongchang case, and this person might be of help to you. ”
Chen Molei put down the photo and said, "Whether it helps or not, I want to thank you." If there are dates or not, hit it first. ”
"Alright, I'm done, and I should go." Zheng Xudong stood up and said, "By the way, there is one more thing. Regarding the case of Leng Shiguang's refusal to carry out the crime, since he has already taken the initiative to fulfill his obligations, there is no criminal responsibility. Go back and arrange for someone to go to the criminal police team to go through the procedures for withdrawing the case. ”
Chen Molei nodded and said, "Okay, I'll arrange it when I get back." ”
Before leaving, Zheng Xudong patted Chen Molei on the shoulder: "The old director's business, I will thank you alone another day." Let's not talk about whether the settlement agreement is taking advantage of people's danger, just because you all find Leng Shiguang's shares, Gong Yanliang's creditor's rights will be guaranteed. I have made a note of this favor, and if the Executive Board needs help in the future, I will absolutely cooperate. ”
Chen Molei was not polite to Zheng Xudong, and said with a smile: "Wow, I will definitely trouble you in the future." ”
