Chapter 66 Guo Junshan interrogates Chen Honglu
In the dim interrogation room, a beam of dazzling light shone on Chen Honglu's face, making it impossible for him to open his eyes. He could only lower his head and remain silent.
Sun Yuanchao slammed the table heavily and said in a cold voice, "Chen Honglu! Look at these eight characters above my head! Leniency for those who confess, severity for those who resist!
If you resist to the end, once convicted, you will be given a heavier sentence! You know exactly what awaits you!"
Chen Honglu pretended not to hear and continued to lower his head pretending to be dead.
Du Juan snorted impatiently, took a breath, and began to persuade him: "Chen Honglu, you are a cadre after all, you understand the big principles, you don't need me to lecture you!
You have to know that there are only two options before you! One option is to confess quickly and explain clearly what you did.
That way, when sentencing, the judge will have the discretion to reduce your sentence! Another option is to remain silent as you are now. You know the consequences yourself.”
"Boom boom boom——"
Guo Junshan pushed open the door and walked into the interrogation room.
"Comrade Dujuan, please go out and rest for a while. Let me take over!"
Du Juan felt that her patience was about to run out, so she stood up, picked up her water cup and walked out of the interrogation room.
Guo Junshan sat down on the chair, looked at Chen Honglu with a serious expression, and said, "Wei Chunhong has already said that it was you who proposed the matter of Xing Fangcao!
It was you who pushed that person down the hill! Oh, and Wei Chunhong also said that you raped her and forced her to have a lover relationship with you. Do you have anything to say?
Chen Honglu suddenly raised his head, slammed the table angrily, and shouted, "She's bullshit! I didn't rape her! We are good friends, it was all her own will!"
Guo Junshan pressed the tip of his tongue against the roof of his throat and said nonchalantly, "Really? But Wei Chunhong is now accusing you of rape! And you have no evidence to prove your innocence!"
"Bullshit! Ask Wei Chunhong to come over and tell her to say that again in front of me!"
Chen Honglu had truly fallen in love with Wei Chunhong, otherwise he wouldn't have been secretly in love with her for three years! Three years!
He had thought Wei Chunhong would fight to the end just like him. Even if things got any worse, she would share the responsibility with him. He had never imagined that Wei Chunhong would sell him out!
Guo Junshan leaned lazily on the chair, looked up at the ceiling, and said calmly: "You can't meet! And her confession is consistent with what Xing Fangcao said!
Xing Fangcao insisted that you killed her because you were afraid that she would tell your affairs. The current situation is very unfavorable to you!
If you continue to remain silent, you will most likely be convicted of rapist and attempted murder."
Chen Honglu became even more furious. He roared, "Xing Fangcao is a liar! She was clearly threatening me and asking Wei Chunhong and me to buy her meat buns and make her a new cotton-padded jacket, so we took action!"
She is so greedy! She wants this and she wants that! A new cotton-padded jacket! Even if my daughter wants one, I have to think twice. If she asks for it right away, how can I give it to her?
Every household was poor, and Chen Honglu had nothing more than others. How could he just take out a new cotton-padded jacket so easily?
Besides, Yang Daping was in charge of the family's finances. Last time, he took out a dollar, Yang Daping had a fight with him. If he took out money again, would Yang Daping let him off?
Guo Junshan sat up straight and said with a serious expression, "Then tell me! How exactly did Xing Fangcao blackmail you?"
Chen Honglu suddenly calmed down from his rage, his forehead was covered with cold sweat, and he realized that he had fallen into Guo Junshan's trap!
Guo Junshan didn't care about his reaction and said calmly: "Now that things have come to this, it's useless for you to hide it!
"Speak now! Start from when Xing Fangcao discovered you and Wei Chunhong! Don't hide anything!"
Sun Yuanchao advised, "Chen Honglu, there must be a reason for you to do this! Tell us clearly as soon as possible so that we can help you get leniency!"
Chen Honglu has just confessed the truth and knows that hiding it is useless. If he doesn't say anything and lets Xing Fangcao and Wei Chunhong say whatever they want, he will only end up dead!
"I mean... it all started when I discovered Xing Fangcao secretly going to the cowshed to deliver something to Wang Simin..."
"Who knew she'd told Wei Chunhong about this... I was just explaining... and she suddenly showed up!"
"First, she took Chunhong's cotton-padded jacket and blackmailed me, asking me to buy her meat buns..."
"..."
Guo Junshan looked at Chen Honglu expressionlessly and asked, "You couldn't satisfy her demands, so you tricked her out and wanted to kill her?"
Chen Honglu shook his head and said, "From the beginning, we just wanted to teach her a lesson! After we pushed her down, she stopped moving, and we got scared!
Wei Chunhong and I both thought she had fallen to her death! We didn’t dare to go over to see her and hurried home!
"Then what?" Sun Yuanchao asked.
"Later, the people at the educated youth site couldn't find her, so they went to the village to look for her! This matter became a big deal!
I didn't want anyone to find her body, so I deliberately delayed time and went against Chen Erlai!
Who knew she was so lucky and survived? "
Chen Honglu regretted it in his heart! He hated himself for not being soft-hearted enough, and also hated himself for not being hard-hearted enough!
If I had been a little harder, I would have gone down to check on Xing Fangcao's condition. If she wasn't dead yet, I would have killed her and nothing would have happened today!
If I had been a little softer-hearted and turned a blind eye from the beginning, pretending not to see it, Xing Fangcao giving Wang Simin gloves would not have come to this!
Guo Junshan sighed. To be fair, Wei Chunhong and Chen Honglu were indeed at fault, but Xing Fangcao was also responsible! She was too greedy.
"Officer Guo, Officer Sun, how many years should I be sentenced to in this situation?" Chen Honglu asked hopefully, "Didn't Xing Fangcao survive? So I shouldn't get the death penalty, right?"
Sun Yuanchao replied, "We'll have to wait until the court session to find out the specific verdict. We're a police station here, so we can't determine your sentence."
Chen Honglu's face was filled with despair! He was going to court! It seemed like he couldn't escape!
"Don't be too pessimistic. As long as you tell the truth, we will explain your situation to the court." Guo Junshan's tone was calm.
Sun Yuanchao's tone also became much calmer: "Do you have anything else to add?"
Chen Honglu was silent for a moment and slowly shook his head.
Guo Junshan finished writing the transcript and whispered to Sun Yuanchao, "Take him into custody first! I'll report to the director!"
Han Zhenguo takes this case very seriously! He has been working at the Dahe Town Police Station for ten years, and in those ten years, no such vicious case has ever occurred!
"Junshan! How's the situation with Xing Fangcao?"
Guo Junshan replied, "She has multiple abrasions all over her body, a fractured left hand, and several frostbite wounds. The doctor said there will be sequelae. Du Juan is taking care of her in the hospital."
However, according to Xing Fangcao's confession, the fracture in her left hand was caused when she fell into a pit, and it has nothing to do with Chen Honglu!
Han Zhenguo nodded and asked, "What do you think about this matter?"
"What I think is not important. What is important is that this incident has had a very negative impact! It is a foregone conclusion that Chen Honglu and Wei Chunhong will go to jail.
They are easy to handle, we can just hand them over to the court. But our work at the police station has just begun!"
Han Zhenguo looked at Guo Junshan with admiration and said encouragingly, "Oh? Tell me more about it!"
Guo Junshan sat down on the chair opposite Han Zhenguo and said calmly, "Popularize the law! The people in Dahe Town have such a weak legal consciousness!
Although Xing Fangcao was a victim, she committed blackmail, which was the main reason why Chen Honglu and Wei Chunhong wanted to harm her.
Not to mention Chen Honglu and Wei Chunhong! Anyone who's not stupid knows they've broken the law! "
Guo Junshan paused for a moment and continued, "I propose that each village elect a representative to come to our police station to learn legal knowledge.
Come here to study during the day, and go back to the village to explain it to the villagers at night! It happens to be the slack season for farming now, so it won’t delay anything~”
Han Zhenguo nodded in satisfaction and said, "I agree with what you said! Dahe Town is a remote and poor place.
Not many ordinary people can read, let alone understand the law! We should take this opportunity to educate the people about the law!
Junshan, you're from Beijing, so you know more than us! I'll leave the legal education to you!
Then let Sun Yuanchao follow you and help you!"
Guo Junshan frowned, somewhat resisting: "Director, isn't it appropriate to hand it over to me? There are so many people in the institute, and none of them are older than me!"
"Don't try to play that on me! If it's based on seniority, can you join the criminal police team?"
