Detective: From the Police Academy

Chapter 230 Tiger poison and food
Fang Yonghui and Yang Bo hurriedly climbed up the stairs. Before they could catch their breath, they immediately asked Qi Lei who was standing by the door, "What's going on?"

Qi Lei pointed to the closed door, from which came the sounds of "ping pong pong" and a woman's shrill roar.

"The fight started!"

Fang Yonghui put his ear against the door and heard the sound of tearing and shouting. Li Mei's voice was particularly intense, as if she was cursing.

Yang Bo frowned: "No one will die, right?"

Qi Lei spread his hands and said, "Luo Da said, if we don't increase our strength, how can we hit the snake at its weakest point?"

Fang Yonghui sighed twice: "Really? The idea of ​​favoring boys over girls is too serious. Do you have to have a son?"

Qi Lei glanced at him and said, "You don't understand. Xiong's three sons all gave birth to daughters, which means they have cut off the family line. They have almost become a joke in the village, especially the elderly. They won't live for many years. How are they going to face their ancestors in the underworld? I tell you, as long as they are elderly, anyone will be angry..."

At this time, the neighbors on both sides heard the sound, opened the door and came out, looking curious.

Qi Lei quickly took out his police ID and explained to them: "The police are investigating a case, so don't just stand there and watch."

The neighbors looked at the four men warily, their eyes full of suspicion. You look like policemen? The family is in chaos, but you are hiding outside the door and eavesdropping. It seems wrong no matter how you look at it.

But because Qi Lei and his men were tall and strong, they didn't dare to say anything and had to retreat.

Besides, this house used to belong to a truck driver named Tai Zhenggang. Not only did his wife cheat on him, but his death was also related to his wife. Not only that, but he also brought a strange man home. As a result, this pair of adults were openly having an affair even before Tai Zhenggang's body was cold.

The neighbors felt the same way. Normally, they would roll their eyes when they saw Li Mei and Bian An, but now they didn't want to bother with this trivial matter.

Yang Bo asked, "When are we going to intervene?"

Qi Lei casually took out his Liqun cigarettes and gave one to each of them.

"Lord Luo has given the order. Let them fight until one side loses."

Fang Yonghui nodded, then frowned and asked, "Is this in accordance with the rules?"

"How can it not be consistent? It's their family affairs. Haven't you heard the saying that even an honest judge cannot judge family affairs?"

Hearing the sound of something slamming inside the door, Yang Bo was startled and said, "Luo Da is too cunning. He can't do anything to Li Mei, so he went to find Bian An's father."

After he finished speaking, the three of them nodded hurriedly, all agreeing.

Qi Lei said, "Just learn from them. This is human nature! If Tai Hui's disappearance is related to this couple, they would have revealed their tracks today."

At this moment, there was another loud noise from the door, like the sound of a vase breaking.

Fang Yonghui said worriedly, "It's too noisy, is there really any danger?"

Qi Lei replied impatiently: "Don't worry, the two brothers of Bian An are here for the purpose of preventing serious accidents. Besides, we have already informed these two people, they will watch over it."

Hearing this, the three of them looked at each other and saw shock in each other's eyes. Luo Da was too good at manipulating people's hearts. But this matter was really exciting. Although it did not conform to the regulations of the case, as long as they found the clues, who cares.

Qi Lei put out his cigarette and said, "I won't waste my time talking to you. I want to hear what's going on inside."

He pricked up his ears, bent over, and put his head against the door, looking like a sneaky person.

Inside the door, it was a mess. The living room floor was covered with broken vases and teacups, and the sofa had been moved.

Bian Xiong sat in a chair next to the dining room, leaning forward, his hands on his knees, staring fiercely at Li Mei who was standing in the living room.

"have you had enough!"

Li Mei, with messy hair, pointed at the old man and said, "Old man, are you going to get out of here or not!"

Bian An frowned, pulled her clothes, and shouted, "Why did you scold my dad? Did you scold my dad?"

Bian An's two brothers stared at the woman with unfriendly eyes. If Bian An hadn't spoken, they would have slapped her twice.

Li Mei insisted: "Get lost! Why are you causing trouble in my house? What on earth do you want to do?"

Bian Xiong pursed his lips, with deep wrinkles on his face. He said angrily: "I won't argue with you, a stinky woman. Just tell me where my grandson is!"

Bian An quickly advised: "Dad, what grandson? You don't have any grandsons!"

Bian Xiong pointed at his nose and cursed, "Shut up, the police came and asked about my grandson's whereabouts. They showed me a photo and he looked exactly like me. I didn't believe it at first, but the police showed the DNA report to the whole village. Oh my god, it really is my grandson! I tell you, if I don't see my grandson today, the whole village will laugh at me!"

Hearing this, Bian An's face turned pale and he cursed in his heart, these policemen are so cruel!

Li Mei's expression froze. She picked up the sofa pillow in her hand and threw it on the ground, cursing, "What do you mean your grandson? Old man, that's Tai Zhenggang's son. What does he have to do with your family?"

The eldest brother couldn't stand it anymore, so he walked over, pointed at Li Mei's nose and cursed: "Watch your mouth, you and my little brother got a marriage certificate, and the old man is still your father! If you dare to curse again, I'll tear your mouth apart!"

"Come on if you have the guts, kill me! Come on, there's a knife in the kitchen, stab me to death with it! What's wrong with me scolding him, old man, old man..."

Li Mei ran to the kitchen, and Bian An quickly pulled her back, shouting to his eldest brother, "Stop talking, this is none of your business."

Li Mei was still cursing, her expression was extremely excited!
Bian Xiong stood up, took two steps forward, grabbed Li Mei's hair, and slapped her twice.

He was born into a peasant family and often worked in the fields, so he was very strong. These two slaps stunned Li Mei.

"Crazy woman, I've been displeased with you for a long time. You never come back to worship our ancestors during festivals, which makes me, the youngest, ashamed. Now, tell me, where did you hide my grandson?"

Seeing Li Mei being beaten, Bian An hurriedly tried to grab the old man, but the boss dragged him away.

The second brother also stepped forward and grabbed Li Mei, preventing him from moving.

The old man nodded with satisfaction. Why do you prefer boys to girls? Why do you want to inherit the family line? That's it. You always need a helper when you fight.

In the countryside, any family without a son will be bullied by those who have a son.

Although we don’t live in groups like we used to, who knows what will happen in the future? After I die, I will have to let my grandchildren hold the tablet for me.

Bian Xiong’s idea is very simple, he wants this grandson, the old Bian family cannot be without successor!
Li Mei had come to her senses, spitted at Bian Xiong's face, and cursed: "Old man, your grandson is dead, dead!"

Hearing this, Bian Xiong became anxious, his eyes turned bloodshot, and he slapped him twice again.

"You crazy bitch, you are talking nonsense, I will beat you to death!"

The old man was so angry that he lost his initial calmness and started slapping people continuously.

Seeing this, the eldest and second oldest did not stop it.

A slap won't kill anyone. Besides, this is a family matter. Even if the police find out, we are still right.

Bian An felt sorry for his wife and shouted, "Dad, stop hitting her, stop hitting her! That's my wife, Dad... If you really want a grandson, let the eldest and second sons give birth to one for you outside. I'll pay for it, I'll pay for it!"

Bian Xiong remained unmoved and continued slapping.

But the eldest and the second son looked at each other and felt a little impatient. If it weren't for their wives' strict control, they would have wanted to find a woman and have another child.

Li Mei had been beaten until the corner of her mouth was bleeding. Every time she cursed, she was hit, and she was dizzy.

She had never been humiliated like this in her life.

"Old thing! I tell you, Tai Hui is mine and Bian Ansheng's, but forget it, he's dead, I killed him, you old thing! If you want to see your grandson, go to the Hades Palace to see him!"

Hearing this, everyone's expressions froze.

Bian Xiong's raised hand froze, and Bian An's shouting also stopped.

But Li Mei was still shouting at the top of her lungs, echoing in the empty living room: "I killed him, I strangled him to death, haha... Old man, how is it that you haven't seen your grandson for a day? Feel good, right? Your Bian family will be extinct, and you old man will be too ashamed to see your ancestors after you die!"

……

Qi Lei left the door, rubbed his neck, and said, "I just heard the slapping sound, and now they have stopped."

"That's good, at least no one was killed." Fang Yonghui breathed a sigh of relief.

He was a graduate of the police academy, knew the police code by heart, had seen few evil things, and had not been severely whipped by brutal criminals, so naturally he did not want to do anything against the rules.

Qi Lei is already a veteran and is not surprised by anything. Besides, formal case handling procedures are one thing, but when there is no other choice, it is also normal to use some tricks. Even if the superiors know about it, they will not say anything as long as there is a good result.

But the prerequisite is that a good person cannot be wrongly accused. This is a must.

He said, "It seems that Li Mei was beaten badly. I just heard Bian An yelling."

Yang Bo nodded: "It's better to be miserable. If it's not miserable, she won't speak. By the way, Lao Qi, have you informed Luo Da?"

With a "slap", Qi Lei slapped himself in the face.

"Damn it, I actually forgot about this!"

He quickly walked to the side, took out his cell phone and dialed the number.

However, at this moment, the door was suddenly opened, and Bian Xiong stood at the door with red and swollen eyes and tears streaming down his face.

Qi Lei swallowed his saliva and stared at him nervously.

Fang Yonghui and Yang Bo rushed forward and surrounded Bian Xiong.

……

In the office of the county director.

Lu Kangming picked up the teacup with a smile, blew on the soup gently, then took a sip, making an admiring sound.

"Luo Rui, was this Rainforest Longjing really sent to you by Director Hu Changyu?"

Luo Rui nodded: "Yes, I just received it. You know Director Hu likes this. Captain Zhu from the provincial department always asks him for money."

"It's really good tea, not bad, not bad."

Jiang Crocodile, who was sitting on the side, also picked up the teacup, took a sip as if it were a drink, frowned, and complained in his heart, "It doesn't taste good. What's the difference between it and ordinary tea?" But he didn't dare to say this out loud.

Lu Kangming put down the teacup and said with a smile, "Captain Zhu also likes to drink tea? By the way, I will ask someone to collect some good tea leaves tomorrow. Can you send some to the two leaders?"

Jiang Gang complained in his heart again, one is a big shot in the Municipal Bureau, the other is a big shot in the Provincial Department. Old Lu wants to make progress, join the Tea Club, and want to move up again?
Luo Rui patted his chest and said, "I was just worried about what to send back. I didn't expect Director Lu to be so thoughtful. It's not against the rules to exchange tea for tea. It's also polite. We are still like-minded. So it's settled. I'll send one to Director Hu and Captain Zhu. By the way, although Director Wu likes to drink plain water, there are tea leaves in Captain Zhu's office. He will definitely ask for some money..."

Jiang Gang blinked and turned to look at Luo Rui. What a guy with thick eyebrows and big eyes. He started to flatter before the appointment was made. With this pulling and pulling, Luo Rui brought up so many big men. His purpose was too strong. Lu Kangming immediately sat up straight and picked up the phone with a smile on his face: "I'll arrange it right away. My brother-in-law is in Yunnan. Let's get some tea from Yunnan. It's great!"

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Luo Rui said, "Director Lu, that criminal team, please take a look..."

Lu Kangming said bluntly: "You are blocking me here, but this matter is difficult. I have to discuss it with Political Commissar Yang. Besides, the funds allocated by the county are not much. It will cost a lot of money to set up this team. For example, those laboratories you mentioned before are too expensive, not to mention poaching those professional talents."

Luo Rui nodded to show his understanding, but added: "At this stage, we need one person."

"Who?"

"Zhao Ming, Director Zhao from the Haijiang Branch of Guangxing City."

Hearing about the Haijiang Branch, Lu Kangming waved his hands and said, "No, I can't afford to offend Wei Qunshan!"

Luo Rui blinked and said, "I have already dealt with Director Wei. I have also dealt with Director Zhao. As long as our county extends an olive branch, Director Zhao can come here legitimately."

Lu Kangming was stunned for a moment and asked, "How did you do it?"

"Don't worry about it. Just give Director Wei a call and have a good chat. Then ask for help from the higher-ups and it will be done. Director Lu, if we want to increase our crime clearance rate by the end of the year, it will be difficult without a technical expert like Director Zhao!"

Lu Kangming pondered and said, "Okay, I'll talk to Wei Fox. He's not easy to deal with and has a deep background. If it weren't for our county bureau, I wouldn't mess with him.

Speaking of which, how is the backlog case you have going on? "

Jiang Gang turned to look at Luo Rui and said, "Yes, you called me here just for the poisoning case?"

In the previous K301 train robbery and murder case, as well as the serial murder case of young girls, because the nature of the cases was too serious and the social attention was too high, and Jiang Gang was too young, the superiors did not dare to let him be responsible, so they handed the case over to a senior prosecutor.

The death sentence will definitely need to be reviewed, so the chain of evidence must be complete, but no matter whether it is Ding Zuo or Lan Hanwen, they will definitely go to hell.

Jiang Gang was suffering from having nothing to do, and when he heard that Luo Rui and his team were clearing up the backlog of cases, he could no longer wait, and rushed over as soon as he received the call.

Luo Rui said: "The suspects in this case are very clear, but because it happened so long ago and there is insufficient evidence, we can't do anything about Li Mei and Bian An. But my guess is that Tai Zhenggang's son, Tai Hui, may not be alive, otherwise Bian An, as a father, would not have failed to look for him."

Lu Kangming nodded: "There is no other way. At that time, due to discipline, I didn't dare to take any action against Li Mei. However, Li Nong has been paying attention to this case. After all, it is a stone in his heart."

Jiang Gang frowned and said, "We must see the person alive or dead. No matter what, if you can't find the child, we can't do anything to Li Mei!"

Speaking of this, Luo Rui was also anxious. He had been waiting for two days and didn't know what the situation was like on Qi Lei's side.

If something happens, I will be held responsible. If all else fails, I will have to withdraw my people and conduct an investigation in the usual way.

Taking an unconventional approach is really not advisable.

Luo Rui was hesitating when his cell phone rang.

He picked up the phone and Qi Lei shouted, "Master Luo, Li Mei confessed!"

"Wait a minute, I'll put you on speakerphone, and you can say it again."

Hearing this, Lu Kangming and Jiang Gang stretched their necks, and Luo Rui pressed the hands-free button.

Qi Lei said again: "Luo Da, Li Mei confessed just now. She was the one who killed Tai Hui! She killed her own son. She was about to jump off the building, but we held her down."

Luo Rui's heart skipped a beat. Although he had already guessed the result, he still felt like a needle stabbing his heart.

Jiang Gang immediately spoke up: "Did she confess where the body was?"

"Not yet. She is on the verge of a mental breakdown."

Luo Rui said: "Wait a minute, I'll be there soon!"

Luo Rui put away his phone and said to Lu Kangming: "Director Lu, I..."

"Go quickly, pry open this woman's mouth and find the child's body."

"Row!"

Luo Rui and Jiang Gang ran out of the county bureau building without stopping.

After taking a sip of tea, Lu Kangming walked to the back of the office, picked up the landline phone, and called Wei Qunshan's office according to the phone directory.

The phone was answered immediately. Lu Kangming put on a smile and said in a flattering tone: "Hello, is this Director Wei Qunshan? I am Lu Kangming from Shahe County. Do you like tea? I have a relative in Yunnan who sent me a bottle of tea. I want to give it to you..."

Before Lao Lu finished speaking, a childish voice came from the other end of the phone: "Get lost! I don't want tea!"

Afterwards, the call was hung up. Lu Kangming's expression froze and his heart sank.

On the other end of the phone, Wei Qunshan went to the bathroom and walked into the office. He shouted to his grandson, "Don't play around my desk, kid. I just heard the phone ringing. Who called?"

Wei Qunshan's six-year-old grandson smiled and said, "Grandpa, a psychopath, probably wants to bribe you."

Wei Qunshan: “…”

……

When Luo Rui and Jiang Gang arrived, quite a few people had already gathered in the corridor.

In addition to Qi Lei, there were also police officers from the police station, but these police officers were just standing aside, seemingly doing nothing.

Qi Lei came over immediately and greeted, "Master Luo."

"Why, the local police station was also alerted?"

Qi Lei whispered in her ear: "I just asked the residents of this floor to call the police. The local police station dispatched officers, discovered the murder, and notified our criminal police, so we rushed here just now. This is in accordance with the procedures."

Luo Rui immediately gave him a thumbs up.

Jiang Gang rolled his eyes. These guys were using all kinds of tricks and yet they managed to do it flawlessly.

However, he pretended not to see it. After all, they were all brothers in the same unit, so he just turned a blind eye.

In any case, as long as the final result is the same, who cares what methods you use.

There were also quite a few people standing in the living room, and Fang Yonghui and Yang Bo had already taken control of the situation.

Bian Xiong was handcuffed and sat dejectedly in a chair. Xiao Wu was pressing on his shoulders to prevent him from moving.

It seems that the old man suffered a great blow. His face is pale and he might fall down if he is not careful.

Bian An sat directly on the floor, his back against the sofa, his legs stretched out, his eyes unfocused.

Luo Rui ignored the two men and looked at Li Mei who was slumped on the sofa. Her hands were also handcuffed, her hair was disheveled, her face was red and swollen, and although her eyes were a little dull, her eyebrows were tightly furrowed.

Luo Rui took one look and knew that this woman was not on the verge of collapse as he had imagined. Her eyes seemed to be moving, calculating.

"Take him back for questioning!"

Upon hearing this, Bian Xiong, who was originally sitting, couldn't bear it anymore and struggled to get up, but Xiao Wu held his shoulders tightly and said, "Don't move!"

"No, officer! This crazy woman killed my grandson. She has admitted it herself. I want his body! I..."

Speaking of this, the old man burst into tears and couldn't stop wiping away tears.

Luo Rui couldn't bear it, after all, he had taken advantage of the other party, so he comforted her: "Don't worry, I will find the whereabouts of the child and send it back to you. However, you are suspected of assaulting others, and the police will detain you."

"Whatever happens, I just want a grandson."

Li Mei was forcibly taken away, and Bian An was also handcuffed. He was in a daze and allowed two policemen to carry him.

In the interrogation room.

Li Mei sat in the chair just like she did five years ago, but the difference was that this time, she was already a confirmed suspect and was handcuffed and shackled.

Luo Rui read out the suspect's rights and obligations, and after asking his name, he asked directly: "How did you kill Tai Hui?"

Li Mei lowered her head and said nothing.

Luo Rui slammed the table and scolded, "Even a tiger won't eat its own cubs. As a mother, are you so cruel?"

Li Mei used her handcuffed hands to push the hair in front of her eyes to her ears.

She looked up and raised her hands, opening them in a semicircle and pushing her fingers inward.

"That's it!"

Her tone was flat, as if she was talking about something insignificant.

Luo Rui swallowed his saliva and confirmed: "Strangle to death?"

"Yes, he screamed very loudly, and I was afraid that others would hear him, so I strangled him to death."

"Why are you doing this?"

Li Mei rolled her eyes: "Why do you do this? Because he called me shameless and a bitch, right? That should be the reason!"

Luo Rui suppressed his discomfort and said, "Don't play dumb. Tell me the specific reason."

"He hates me. This kid hates me, officer. I gave birth to him. If I kill him, is that against the law?"

Li Mei seemed to be a little mentally unstable. The way she spoke was too calm, without any emotional fluctuations.

Luo Rui didn't dare to provoke her and picked the most important question.

"Where is Tai Hui's body?"

Li Mei raised her head, glanced at the ceiling, and said with a shake of her head, "On the mountain, in the abandoned culvert of Baoshan Town, I left him there. The body is too heavy, I can't move it. When I gave birth to him, he was so small and so fragile. He has grown up to be eight years old. It's too hard to strangle an eight-year-old child...too hard!"

……

As night fell, five police cars from Shahe County Police Station, flashing red and green lights, set off for Baoshan Town to bring back Tai Hui, who had been missing for five years, even though it was just a corpse...
