I'm a detective for Dongchang

Chapter 66 Interrogation
Supervisor Yuan Dachang asked Lu Xizhi to come back for interrogation after lunch on the second day, so she got a good night's sleep after returning home, and had a rich lunch with her parents and aunts at noon, and had a brief chat After talking about this murder case, I sorted it out and went to 'work' easily.

Following the crowd, it was the first time she came to the Dongchang torture room. Every time she came, she would pass by this big room, and she would sneak a glance at the tower standing in front of the door from the corner of her eye. There were always a few men in black walking back and forth on it. It's like patrolling and guarding, but I didn't expect this to be a prison that frightened outsiders.

Behind the prison is the only stone mountain in the capital. The mountain is not high, but it surrounds Dongchang. I heard Beixue explain to her from behind that this was originally an underground ice room. After the ice room was transferred to the north of the city, here It was used to imprison the treasonous criminals of the Jin Kingdom.The prison is divided into two parts: above ground and underground. The above ground is the torture room and the ordinary prison. It is said that there are twenty men's prisons and two women's prisons in the underground.

Around the interrogation platform in the torture room, Lu Xizhi saw the long iron chains, cross locks, sharply shaved bamboo sticks, two large jars filled with pepper water, and the legendary tiger stool that only appeared in movies. "Tiger Stool" is a long stool, and then the hands and feet are tied to the stool, and bricks are piled under the ankles. When the third layer is stacked, the legs are broken, which makes people shudder.

Looking back at the entire outer courtyard, there are not only tower guards, but also men in black who work 24 hours a day. The prisoners are all wearing heavy handcuffs and shackles. If you want to pass through layers of security, it is simply impossible to escape from the prison.

This reminded her of the scene of visiting the 'Zhazi Cave' in her previous life. The whole structure was like a living coffin, one could come in and not get out.

With a soft sound, she was pulled back, everything was ready for the interrogation, Yuan Yanxi presided over the interrogation, Lu Xizhi guided, and a scholar-like person who had never seen before took the record.

Fang Daqiang's complexion was a little more angry than when he was arrested yesterday. Perhaps the arrest made him completely relax his tense nerves. After he was freed, he could sleep soundly.The routine questioning for confirming his identity was completed quickly. Fang Daqiang cooperated very well and answered whatever he asked, but he kept his eyelids drooping and didn't look at people.

He was a thin man, more like his father, with a pointed chin, slightly drooping eyebrows and eyes, and his face was the kind of ordinary people living at the bottom of society, with a mixture of dullness, humility, and guard.

Yuan Yanxi asked the first question: "Fang Daqiang, do you know why we want to arrest you?"

"I know", Fang Daqiang answered quickly.

"Then tell me, what have you done, speak louder and clearly."

"I killed people. I killed many people. I killed Zhang Caixia's family with a knife and set fire to their house. I killed Xiao Zhuang and Xiao Shi. I..."

The tense and suppressed emotions were fully released at this time, Fang Daqiang suddenly burst into tears, tears flowed from his downcast eyes, and dripped on his own chest and thighs.

The entire torture room was silent, only the sound of the man's embarrassing and mournful crying echoed, but whether the tears were regret, hope in vain, or fear of the imminent death... I don't know.

"I was wrong, I was really wrong, I shouldn't have murdered the children, they are not wrong, the children are innocent, innocent, I am a beast, I am not a human..." Fang Daqiang murmured to himself in tears.

Lu Xizhi and Yuan Yanxi exchanged eye contact without interrupting him.

"I hesitated at the time, I really hesitated, they were all dead, Xiao Zhuang and Xiao Shi were terrified, crying desperately, I coaxed them, but they were disobedient, crying and howling hard, very It was so noisy, it made my head hurt, and Xiao Shi was still good at scratching me, scratching my eyes and hair, I was afraid that my neighbors would hear me, so I cut his throat..."

Lu Xizhi clenched his fists and bit his lips tightly, so he restrained himself from going up to slap him.

"I... I just cut him. I thought that if his life was serious, he might survive. Later, Xiao Zhuang cried even louder and ran into the courtyard, so I became cruel..." Fang Daqiang began to cry again.

After crying for a while, he raised his head: "But I didn't pour gasoline on the two of them, I just thought, maybe the child will crawl away by himself, Xiao Zhuang can already walk, and Xiao Shi can also crawl, usually it's very easy to get up. Soon, he crawled to the side, the fire will not be able to burn him, really... I really think so... woo..."

For the first time, Fang Daqiang looked at the people behind the interrogation platform. His face was full of tears and he showed no expression, but his red eyes were full of begging looks, as if he hoped to see Yuan Yanxi believe what he said.

Yuan Yanxi looked at him coldly, but did not speak. Lu Xizhi spoke:

"Fang Daqiang, we understand what you mean. You didn't want to kill Fang Zhuang and Fang Shi, did you? You still hope they can survive, right?"

Fang Daqiang didn't speak, just nodded desperately.

"Okay, we understand, I believe you are telling the truth." Lu Xizhi began to play the role of the patient little brother again, he paused, and asked as gently as possible: "Fang Daqiang, you should already know, right? Fang Zhuang and Fang Shi, they are not your biological sons, are they?"

Fang Daqiang was stunned, he was silent for a long time, but everyone else noticed something, the man in front of him seemed to be undergoing a very subtle change, he stared at them without blinking, as if he was remembering something, The dullness and humility on his face gradually faded away, replaced by a cold disgust and ferocity.

"Yes, I know." Fang Daqiang spoke again, his tone became unusually calm.

Yuan Yanxi glanced at Lu Xizhi and motioned her to continue asking.

Lu Xizhi didn't want to disturb his current emotions, so he asked cautiously: "When did you find out that they are not your own sons?"

"On the fifth day of this month, it's Xiaoshi's birthday."

"How did you find out, can you tell me in detail?"

Fang Daqiang suddenly closed his eyes tightly, the veins on both temples tensed and protruded, his throat was swallowing hard, and it was obvious on both cheeks that he was clenching his teeth.

He is going to...

Just as Lu Xizhi was about to turn his eyes away, his eyes suddenly went dark. It turned out that Yuan Yanxi stretched out his left arm, and the wide sleeve curtain blocked her view.

Sure enough, Fang Daqiang vomited from the other side of the sleeve curtain, huffing, as long as he thought of that disgusting scene, he couldn't help but vomit.

It wasn't until the sound of cleaning was over that Yuan Yanxi put down his hands and continued to listen to the trial with his eyes closed as if nothing had happened.

"That day was Xiaoshi's first birthday, and it rained all day. I came back from work and brought a small bamboo basket made for Xiaoshi, thinking of making the children happy. When I got home, I found that Zhang Caixia and the two children were not there. Maybe I was going to my mother-in-law's old house. I was afraid that the three of them didn't bring umbrellas, because Xiao Zhuang had just had a cold two days ago. I was afraid that he would get sick again, so I walked to pick them up. When I got there, I didn't dare to go in, because Zhang Caixia never Let me into that room, I had to wait for them at a small tea shop at the door.

After more than an hour, I saw Zhang Caixia hugging Xiao Shi, and another man walked out of the house with Xiao Zhuang. The two were talking and laughing. Before leaving, the man even kissed both of them. children.Heh, it looks like that, they are closer than me as a father, they are the real family. "

Fang Daqiang seemed to be talking about things that had nothing to do with him, with a calm attitude and expressionless face, making it hard to imagine that he was the one crying and confessing bitterly just now.

"How is your relationship with Zhang Caixia?"

"I'm not afraid of your jokes. In the past few years of marriage, I have never felt that I and her are a couple, not even friends. I know that she is high-minded and not a lady, but she makes herself look like a lady from a rich family all day long." At home, she talked coldly at me, didn't treat me like a man, and bossed me around like a dog; outside, she was like a passerby to me, and she would walk away immediately if I got closer. Not only did she not let me go to that old house, she even Even when I saw me nearby, I would throw a tantrum unrelentingly when I returned home. The man’s attitude towards the child made me suddenly realize that the rumors and gossips in the neighborhood may only be kept in the dark by my stubborn choice and don’t believe them. "

"Then, did you question Zhang Caixia that day?"

"I didn't ask her about her high-ranking appearance. I asked Li Fengzhen directly, because in this family, she was the only one who was polite to me. At that time, I thought she didn't know about it, but she already knew about it. , when I married her daughter, she knew."

"Did Li Fengzhen tell you all this? Did she admit it right away?"

"Yes, they don't want to pretend at all. Li Fengzhen and Zhang Qingyou still want me to cooperate with them. That Yang Jirui planned to take Zhang Caixia into an outside room, and their family agreed. It's really shameless. Yang Jirui is afraid of him Father knew that he had an illegitimate child outside, so he would cut off his monthly money. Li Fengzhen said, if I am willing to help and don't tell these things, they are willing to give me a sum of money when Zhang Caixia and I reconcile. "

"Reconcile? Zhang Caixia plans to reconcile with you?"

"Yes, I thought that as long as I endured it, Caixia would be able to accept her fate when the two children grew up. In the end, they told me in a serious tone: the child is not mine! Wait for that Yang Jirui to follow his father After getting the dividends from the new store, she planned to make up with me, but now that I found out in advance, she simply understood to have a showdown with me."

The wishful thinking of Zhang Caixia's family was indeed well planned, but they did not expect that making progress would bring catastrophe to their entire family.

Fang Daqiang raised his head and said in an accusatory tone: "I respect their family like an ox or a horse. In the end, even my only hope...is not mine! I hate it! I hate it!"

Xi Feng, who seldom spoke, said: "Why did Zhang Caixia choose you to marry?" His tone could not help showing dissatisfaction and doubt.

Fang Daqiang actually grinned at this moment, and Lu Xizhi suddenly felt his hairs stand on end.

"At that time, I asked her that too." He replied with a sneer.

"Li Fengzhen told me that her daughter was just pregnant at the time, and Yang Jirui was having trouble with her family at the time. She wanted to get rid of the child, but felt that it was too much of a disadvantage. She followed Yang Jirui for half a year, and she knew that the entire Yang family had always valued their grandson. Yes, if the child was born a son, Zhang Caixia would be sure to enter the Yang family. But Yang Jirui was afraid of his father, so he couldn't make up his mind. Yang Jikang made a top bag, anyway, they are two brothers, and the child will not be afraid of being discovered when the child is born. However, Yang Jikang told Yang Gongcheng directly, and Zhang Caixia took a sum of money as a matter of course, and was kicked out of the Yang family. At that time, I happened to meet me and found out that I liked her, so I smoothly concealed all this and married me."

Fang Daqiang spat sinisterly: "Oh, my wife, who I regard as Bao, is actually a whore who can do everything she can!" His face was smiling, but his eyes were as cold as ice.

Yuan Yanxi took over the conversation: "Did you have the idea of ​​killing their whole family at that time?" He tapped his finger on the table and questioned Fang Daqiang.

"Hehe, maybe, I don't know. Later, when Zhang Caixia came back, I wanted to ask her personally why she treated me like this, and how did I feel sorry for her? What is she thinking in her heart now? Is it certain? Make up with me, and even, if she wants, I will raise the two children as my own sons..." Fang Daqiang's narration came to an abrupt end, and he sat there motionless, his body undulating and trembling slightly.

Lu Xizhi and the others couldn't react for a while, so they didn't speak.

"Can you drool..." Fang Daqiang's voice was still a little trembling.

Donghai poured water for him, he took it, drank it immediately, put down the bowl, and before Lu Xizhi could speak again, he immediately went on to say:

"However, that prostitute refused. She said the same thing as Li Fengzhen, and said that since I found out, let's leave. She is willing to compensate me some money. I hope I can bear it for a while until Yang Jirui settles it." , let me leave. I was so angry that I quarreled with the two of them. Zhang Qingyou also got involved and scolded me with ugly words, saying that he has always looked down on me and told me to get out of here. Don't make any noise in their house. Later, that cripple Zhang Caiyu also ran out of her room, saying that we were so noisy that she couldn't sleep, and told us to shut up. She also said that since my sister and I brought After the child moved in, the family has never been quiet, and she told me to get out and leave their house."

Fang Daqiang's eyes began to glow with hatred, "The whole family scolded me, and the two children were crying beside them. I couldn't quarrel with them. My mind was in a mess, so I took my work tools and rushed out of the house."

Lu Xizhi continued to guide: "Since the two parties had already spoken on the fifth day of the fifth day and you didn't do anything, why did you kill so many people on the ninth day? Did you let Yang Jirui go?"

Fang Daqiang suddenly smiled strangely, "That's right, I told him to go."

"why?"

"Because I am a man, in this life, I finally want to live hard for myself once."

　Don't bully the honest man, only for the target
