Chapter 470 Returning Home
All that should be confirmed has been confirmed, but the whole case still has that question left, why did Ma Lichuan help Yu Zhanlin.
The order of the case should be as follows:
On-site investigation.
Ma Lichuan concealed the marks on the chest of the deceased Yan Lina.
Interrogation of the suspect.
Yu Zhanlin lied out of selfishness and concealed the fact of the difficult posture.
Autopsy report.
Yan Lina's autopsy report matches Yu Zhanlin's confession, and the two are in a relationship without any contradiction. Therefore, Sun Shuxiang judged that this case was an accident and submitted it to the procuratorate for review. The subsequent matters have nothing to do with the Criminal Investigation Brigade.
Trial.
The Yu family found a very skilled lawyer who won the dispute in which the sentence could be sentenced or not, and successfully acquitted Yu Zhanlin.
So, before the autopsy report came out, who influenced Ma Lichuan.
Yu Po?
It seems that no information can be obtained from Yu Zhanlin.
Afterwards, Chen Yi asked again about the drinking and the preparation of sadomasochistic tools in advance.
Although Yu Zhanlin's mentality has collapsed, his rationality is still there. For such a thing that cannot be verified without evidence, he will certainly answer in a direction that is favorable to him.
There was no act of forcing Yan Lina to drink, and Yan Lina verbally agreed to use tools.
Chen Yi did not ask repeatedly. Normal logic is that Yu Zhanlin had planned it. As long as he doesn't say it, there will never be an answer.
Will it affect the final sentencing? Affect, but not a big impact.
The clues and confessions currently available are enough to convict Yu Zhanlin of manslaughter. The procuratorate will file a lawsuit with the court again based on new evidence.
After the trial of Yu Zhanlin, Chen Yi went to see Ma Lichuan without stopping.
Ma Lichuan is much more difficult to try than Yu Zhanlin. This is already a "coach's end", and his psychological quality is very stable.
"He is talking nonsense. The deceased's chest definitely did not turn purple and red." Ma Lichuan denied Qin Lang's words.
Chen Yi knew that he would face a protracted battle, so he was not in a hurry and prepared to have a good chat with Ma Lichuan.
Unexpectedly, when the conversation just unfolded, there was a knock on the door.
Sun Shuxiang walked in and whispered something to Chen Yi. It was obvious that Chen Yi's face was surprised.
Yu Po chose to confess without anyone looking for him. At this moment, he was "discussing life" with Peng Ju of the Municipal Bureau. The supervision could take him and Ma Lichuan away at any time.
"Captain Chen, Peng Ju asked to let Taicheng handle it himself." Sun Shuxiang said at last.
Chen Yi understood that it meant not to interrogate here, save some face, they have their own place to go.
"Okay, never mind." Chen Yi got up and left the room with Sun Shuxiang.
Ma Lichuan was very smart. He had guessed the general situation through the eyes of Sun Shuxiang and Chen Yi. After a bitter smile, he sighed deeply.
In fact, Yan Lina's case was over. No one would have thought that Chen Yi would suddenly come to Taicheng with a research team and find key information within a day, and get a new confession from Zhanlin.
Yu Po saw more clearly than him. There was no suspension without reason. The investigation after suspension rarely resulted in innocent results. It depends on fate.
As long as there are signs, it is difficult to dodge. It is better to speak out and fight for it than to risk your life.
Very decisive.
He regretted a little. If he had known this, he would have told the truth. Now it is too late.
Chen Yi was waiting in the lounge. Director Peng would definitely come to him after asking questions.
This is the plot of who will give up first, the boss or the younger brother. Generally speaking, the breakthrough is in the younger brother. After getting the younger brother's confession, he will interrogate the boss.
Unexpectedly, the boss chose to surrender at a very fast speed. It is estimated that he made the decision after careful consideration.
Very smart.
It is impossible to dodge. The problem of time is that the punishment for actively confessing is lighter. After all, it has not caused serious consequences. Yan Lina's death was indeed an accident, but the accident happened because of Zhan Lin.
This is similar to the full responsibility of the car accident causing death. If the compensation is not in place, you will go to jail, and if you compensate, you will also face probation.
In murder cases, motives are extremely important. There is a big tug of war. The upper limit is death and execution, and the lower limit is not even jailed. This is why lawyers like to use motives as a defense point when defending.
The gains of the research team's visit to Taicheng are clear. It is not to bring the vicious criminals to justice, but to maintain the absolute justice of the law.
Yu Zhanlin did not kill Yan Lina intentionally, and he definitely did not want Yan Lina to die. Again, he was unlucky and just caused Yan Lina to suffocate.
If Yan Lina died of illness, then Yu Zhanlin would only need to bear civil compensation. Unfortunately, he directly caused Yan Lina's death, which was a negligence in behavior and he had to face criminal responsibility.
Who can I go to for justice?
There is no way, it's in the mess. Who made him so good at playing that he had to do those perverted tricks? Sooner or later, he will get into trouble.
The Yu family arrived, but unfortunately they did not see the person they wanted to see. After learning that Yu Po was under investigation, Yu Haide immediately realized that something big had happened.
Originally, he wanted to save his grandson, but he failed to save his grandson and also put his son in it. It was really a loss of both the wife and the army.
Chen Yi waited for almost an hour, and the door opened.
Director Peng walked in, with a look of helplessness and residual anger on his face. Without Chen Yi asking, he took the initiative to briefly explain the situation of Yu Po.
The director of the Municipal Bureau had a strong ability to summarize and his language was concise. Chen Yi understood the process without even asking further questions.
The first is time. The interrogation of Zhan Lin and the autopsy of Yan Lina were not carried out simultaneously. The interrogation could simply be done at the bureau and ended quickly. At that time, the comprehensive autopsy had not yet begun.
During this gap, Yu Po and Ma Lichuan had a brief exchange, so ten minutes were missing from the subsequent autopsy video.
These ten minutes were crucial. They concealed the true cause of Yan Lina's death and perfectly matched Yu Zhanlin's confession. The manslaughter became an accident. Just pay some money and you don't have to bear criminal responsibility.
Yu Po was also very entangled at the time, facing a difficult choice. He didn't know what to do due to the plea from his father. In addition, the second child of the Yu family had helped him academically, so he finally took this step.
It can be regarded as repaying a favor, but he should not sacrifice the interests of others.
As for the relationship between Ma Lichuan and Yu Po, it is very simple. Yu Po once helped Ma Lichuan, and it was a matter of work. Yu Po even pushed him behind in terms of his position.
There is a suspicion of pulling the mountain.
Ma Lichuan knew Yu Zhanlin and had met him.
Because of this, after Ma Lichuan found out that Yu Zhanlin was involved in the case, his first reaction was to cover it up first, no matter what Po said.
If necessary, then help, if not, then perform a normal autopsy.
This is what happened.
People really bring out the best when they are unlucky. Yu Zhanlin accidentally caused the death of Yan Lina. I thought everything would be fine with an acquittal, but I didn't expect that Yu Po was also involved in the end.
"It was my negligence to make fun of Team Chen," Director Peng said sincerely.
Chen Yi: "Director Peng is serious about his words. Just solve the problem if it exists. Fortunately, it has not caused irreversible consequences."
This case is just a retrial and re-sentencing. It does not have a particularly significant impact on the victim's family. It is not too late to make amends.
Chen Yi will not inquire about the follow-up matters, and Bureau Peng will be responsible for handling them.
After Ma Lichuan is gone, the vitality of the Tieping Branch has been severely damaged, and this issue must also be taken seriously.
"I'm afraid it will be difficult for a forensic doctor who has just become a full-time employee. Try to find a way to recruit a few, or transfer them from other places." Chen Yidao.
Director Peng nodded: "Of course, the Tieping Branch is responsible for a large area, and there are usually many cases. We will discuss it after the matter is over and see how to solve it."
The two chatted briefly, and Chen Yi declined the invitation to the wine shop, saying that he would leave Taicheng immediately.
Before leaving, Chen Yi went to see Bureau Li and chatted with him about Qin Lang.
Qin Lang has flaws, but he can be regarded as a talent. If he can be given more opportunities to practice, he will become the backbone of the Tieping Branch to assist in case handling in the future.
Some details don’t need to be explained too clearly.
As young people, there is still a lot of room for growth.
What's more, if he hadn't taken the initiative to help Liu Ping, there wouldn't have been a series of things that followed, and at least he would have been safe.
Director Li understood what Chen Yi meant. He was interceding for Qin Lang.
To say that this kid hid important information about the case, and even did not tell the truth immediately when the investigation team came, he really showed no responsibility in Bureau Li, and punishment may not be avoided, so why should he be given another chance?
Considering that the other party still has a sense of justice in his heart, and his efforts to this end have yielded good results, and his professional level is excellent. Now that Chen Yi is interceding for him again and has to give him face, Director Li simply exposes the previous matter.
There is no need for punishment. If the performance is good in the future, the possibility of reuse and promotion cannot be ruled out.
"Then thank you Bureau Li."
"Thank you, Captain Chen. You are also cherishing talents for our branch. How can I not recognize you? If nothing else, have a nice trip! See you next time, let's have a drink!"
Chen Yi smiled and said: "Definitely."
Before the Yan family knew what happened, the research team had already left Taicheng.
It is the duty of the police to find out the truth. There is no need to deliberately meet with the families of the victims to receive their respect.
With a clear conscience and no expectation of reward, Chen Yi encouraged Zhuge Cong and others with eight words on the road.
Qin Lang stood alone at the gate of the municipal bureau, looking at the direction of the research team's vehicles leaving without saying a word for a long time. He was somewhat panicked in his heart. He did not expect Chen Yi to leave so quickly, and felt that he had lost his backbone.
When all the truth was found out, Chen Yi left without even waiting for the results or seeing the relevant people again, leaving behind a lot of... mess.
The mess was for him, after all, he was one of the most critical figures in this case.
Without Chen Yi, he would have to face the leaders' questions alone.
Upstairs, Director Li stood in front of the office window and looked at the young figure below. After thinking for a moment, he went downstairs and came to Qin Lang's side.
"cough!"
Qin Lang's slight cough attracted Qin Lang's attention. He subconsciously turned around and stood at attention: "Li Bureau!"
Bureau Li said with a sullen face: "What are you doing here?!"
Qin Lang didn't dare to lie: "I...I'll see off Team Chen."
Director Li: "No one is around, what can I give you?"
Qin Lang lowered his head.
Director Li: "Why, do you admire people like Chen Yi?"
Qin Lang hummed.
Bureau Li advised: "Then try to get close to him, become him, and surpass him."
Qin Lang complained in his heart, how could I have such ability.
Director Li then talked about the autopsy, and Qin Lang's face fell.
"Originally, you were going to be punished. Captain Chen came to me to plead for mercy. I have to give you face. Forget the punishment. You will do a good job in the bureau from now on. Do you understand?"
Qin Lang was stunned. He didn't know about this and asked Liu Ping to stop the car and complain. In fact, he was already prepared to face the results. He knew very well that he would also be affected after the case was found out.
"Okay, you can send me off as much as you want. It doesn't take too long. The city bureau is still waiting."
Director Li leaves.
Qin Lang stood here alone, silently looking at the road the research team left, feeling that his life suddenly had a clear direction.
…
This case deeply touched Zhuge Cong and others. The boundary between accident and negligence is really very small and difficult to explain clearly. This is the meaning of legal defense.
Just like self-defense, adding the word "excessive" will sometimes make the law lose the fairness it should have in the eyes of the public.
In ancient times, one person decided the case, but now many people pool their wisdom to find the most reasonable answer together, which is for the progress of civilization.
The law is never rigid. It must be dynamic and open to deal with real problems that may occur in the future. If the people think it is just, then it is just.
"Yan Lina has no ruptured hemangioma at all. This Ma Lichuan... is also an outstanding talent."
It was Zhuge Cong who spoke.
Which is more difficult, finding the truth or changing the truth? It was obviously the latter. Changing the truth required a high level of error-tolerant creativity. Ma Lichuan did it so successfully that Sun Shuxiang did not find any problems during the investigation.
Fu Guoyong sat in the back and said in a dull voice: "There are more talents in prison, especially in the past ten years. Look at how sophisticated the criminal methods have become. You can't do it without any academic qualifications."
Zhuge Cong agreed: "That's right, they are two different things."
During the chat, the vehicle quickly got on the highway and drove towards Yangcheng.
This time we really had to go back, and nothing unexpected happened on the way. When Chen Yi stood downstairs at his house, it happened to be seven o'clock in the evening.
In autumn, it is already dark and the temperature is a bit cool.
The lights at home were on, and Fang Shuyu had already gone back.
Go upstairs, unlock the door, and then there are quick and surprising footsteps.
Only the two of them can open the lock.
"Come back!"
Chen Yi opened his arms towards Fang Shuyu.
"Are you hungry?" After a long time, Fang Shuyu left Chen Yi's chest, and the sound of cooking came from the kitchen. The two had contacted each other on the way, and Chen Yi said he would come back for dinner.
Chen Yi nodded: "I'm really a little hungry."
Fang Shuyu immediately went to cook: "Sit there and take a rest. Soon."
At the dining table, the two of them were enjoying a warm dinner with rice bowls. Fang Shuyu was very happy, and the smile on his face never stopped, and he kept asking about the strange things he encountered during the research.
You ask, I say, I say, you listen, simple and unpretentious family life, happiness permeates the whole room.
Chen Yi felt truly relaxed when he returned home. He is also an ordinary person, and nothing is more important than the well-being of his family.
Only ordinary people can do a good job as police officers.
