Chapter Ninety-Seven: Sadness
It is said that the birds that hit the muzzle of the gun are stupid birds, but there are exceptions.
The outcome of the investigation and handling of this case has surprised and regretted all of our case-handling personnel.
Upon receipt of the report, we immediately divided into two groups:
A group of me, Qian Fagen, and others conducted an investigation of the three girls who were present at the time.
The other group was led by the parents of one of the girls to guard the scene of the case.
After the arrival of the criminal investigation team of the county bureau, they inspected the scene in detail, extracted some physical evidence, combined with the records of the three people, and basically restored the context of the case: blocking the road and molesting - encountering resistance - violence - taking the opportunity to rob.
After thorough investigation and evidence collection, the key suspects and their accomplices were locked.
Unexpectedly, this person is actually the secretary of the Youth League branch in the village, a young village cadre who focuses on training.
A tall and big young man, whom the girls like and the elders praise.
At the beginning, he was lazy to steal the watch, but after several years of education, he confessed all the facts, and the watch involved in the case was seized from his home.
When the police car took him and his accomplices away from the station, his mother, who had been widowed in his early years and had worked so hard to pull him up, cried profusely.
It's a pity that it's too late.
At noon that day, I left Xu Zhengcai, the director of public security in Tangao Village, to have dinner in the office and drank a little wine, and he also sighed again and again:
"Watching him grow up, a good offspring, he was engaged not long ago, alas!"
During the conversation, we also repeatedly deduced his motives and causes for stealing the watch.
"Picked up on the ground?"
"Masturbation?"
"To give a gift to your betrothed girlfriend?"
But there is a consensus that poverty may be the root cause.
Tangao is a purely agricultural village, and compared with the neighboring Huangsha and Yuao, the living conditions of the villagers are somewhat poor, and the most obvious is that there are very few new houses, all of which are old houses.
But it was also the best feng shui village I had ever seen at the time.
The village is located in the east-facing mountains of the Zhushan Mountains, and from the center of the village to the outside, a stream with water all year round divides the village into east and west, connected by a stone bridge in the middle.
Some old willow trees on the edge of the creek pit are jagged and watch over the villages of the same age as it, allowing the clear mountains and rivers on Zhu Mountain to flow slowly.
Of course, it is also a testament to the village's former glory.
The ancestral hall of the Zhou family in the east of the village is second to none in Xiangshan Township.
When I visited the masses, I went inside to see that the ancestral hall was made of coarse materials, the construction was elegant, the corbels and bucket arches of the moon beam of the main hall and the mountain gate part were carved with historical story characters, etc., and the expression was lifelike.
The family of Lao Xu, the security officer, lives near the west end of the stone bridge by the stream, with two large bungalows made of semi-solid wood and a wing room and a verandah behind the house.
The room where the bed is laid with a thick floor, which shows that the ancestors are not idlers.
He has two daughters and two sons.
The eldest daughter is married, the younger daughter is the same age as me, and the two sons are not much different in age from me.
My son and daughter came back for a while except when they were busy farming, and they usually worked in the Ningbo area.
At that time, the surplus labor force in the countryside had begun to transfer to Ningbo in large numbers, because relying on the development of Beilun Port, Ningbo's urban construction was very strong and required a large number of laborers, and the construction industry in Xiangshan had a good foundation.
I guess it has something to do with the fact that there are a large number of Maozhu Mountains in Xiangshan, but that's my guess.
I had more contact with Lao Xu, and I gradually got to know more about it.
This is a man with a story.
It's still an old police officer!
