Detective: Open your eyes, I am handcuffed in the interrogation room.

Chapter 460: Yicheng, Very Good

The case was transferred to the procuratorate, and Liu Chengpu and Ding Yunjie were quickly arrested. After the subsequent investigation shows no problems, the two will face prosecution.

The instigator and the perpetrator are guilty of the same crime. The outcome depends on the debate between the plaintiff and the defendant.

There are still many points that can be debated in this case, not only Liu Chengpu, but also Ding Yunjie, because she is also one of the victims in this case.

There is a glimmer of hope in sentence reduction defense, and there is a possibility of survival.

This is not something the task force should be concerned about.

On the day the suspect was arrested, Chen Yi called the provincial department to report the investigation results of the case. The task force was immediately disbanded and there will be commendations later.

Strictly speaking, these are three cases.

The Liushouwu and Liuzhenmao rape case.

Liu Chengpu's rape case, intentional homicide case, intentional injury case, and corpse destruction case.

Ding Yunjie was charged with incitement to murder, incitement to rape, incitement to injury, and incitement to destroy corpses.

Judging from the charges, the probability of the death penalty is very high, but things here are very complicated and cannot be simply judged as black or white.

In addition, He Shan and the other two will also face certain investigations. This is the procedure.

Is it considered a criminal negligence?

The definition of criminal negligence is as follows:
If the party should have foreseen that his or her behavior might result in harm to society or the safety of others, but failed to do so due to negligence, or had foreseen it but believed it could be avoided, resulting in the result occurring, it shall be deemed a crime of negligence.

Behavior, results.

If it weren't for the actions of He Shan and the other two, Ding Yunjie would never have been gang-raped.

The wooden house and bondage were the main conditions for Liu Shouwu and Liu Zhenmao to commit the crime, and these conditions were brought by He Shan and the other two.

Even if it does not constitute a crime, they cannot stay out of it.

Jiangcheng.

He Shan is ready to be discharged from the hospital. The bandage on her face has been removed, and she wears a large mask to show herself to others.

Her husband Gong Liang was quietly packing up his things. The two of them rarely communicated with each other, and it was unclear whether they were in a cold war.

Apparently, there have been many unpleasant experiences between the couple these days.

The road ahead seems predictable.

The door of the ward opened and Zhao Qiming and his men walked in.

Gong Liang turned his head and stopped what he was doing, with a questioning look in his eyes.

The police haven't been here for a while. What's the reason this time?
Zhao Qiming came directly to He Shan and said, "He Shan, the case has been solved. We need you to go back with us for investigation."

Under investigation?

He Shan was puzzled, and Gong Liang was also surprised.

"Why are you investigating me?" He Shan asked.

Zhao Qiming: "Four years ago, when you and Jiang Lili went to climb Zhongluo Mountain, did you tie up Ding Yunjie and lock her in the wooden house?"

He Shan remembered and nodded subconsciously: "Yes, it happened, I was just kidding."

"Are you kidding?" Zhao Qiming snorted. "It was because she was locked in the wooden house that she was gang-raped by two villagers who passed by. That's why you are lying in the hospital."

He Shan took two seconds to react and her face changed drastically: "Ah?!"

Zhao Qiming: "Let's go back to the bureau and discuss the details."

On the other side, Gong Liang understood what was meant. It meant that He Shan had harmed someone, so the other person sought revenge and raped He Shan in the same way, and even disfigured her to vent her anger.

"So that's it..."

Gong Liang was extremely disappointed with He Shan. He knew He Shan and knew that she was capable of doing such a thing with her character.

He Shan is not a bad person, but sometimes what she says and does is very annoying. That's He Shan.

"Let's go."

Zhao Qiming waved his hand.

He Shan was completely stunned. She went to see Gong Liang first and discovered that her husband was looking at her with a strange look. There was helplessness, disappointment, and mockery in his eyes, but there was no love between husband and wife.

She understood that no matter what the results of the police investigation were, divorce was already a done deal and difficult to change. Even if it was pulled out, it would not be possible to smooth out the deep cracks.

If she loses her marriage, then there is no point for her to stay in Jiangcheng. Her future is bleak as she is already disfigured.

"How could it be... How could she be..."

He Shan followed the police away like a zombie, leaving behind her mumbling voice in the ward.

The city.

Ren Dan and Jiang Lili also came to the Municipal Bureau. They had just learned the whole story of the case. The impact of the news was so strong that it took them a long time to recover. They couldn't believe it and didn't dare to believe it.

Since their actions indirectly caused their good friend to be gang-raped, should they apologize or blame Ding Yunjie?

"It's not us again..."

After a long period of silence, Ren Dan's voice was heard, as if he wanted to defend himself.

"Don't talk about Ren Dan." Jiang Lili interrupted in a low voice, "Think about Bo Ren's story, aren't we right?"

Ren Dan turned around and said, "But... that was He Shan's idea. If anyone is to blame, then He Shan should be blamed."

Jiang Lili: "So she was disfigured."

Ren Dan was speechless. Every grievance has its perpetrator and every debt has its creditor. Ding Yunjie's main target of revenge was He Shan. Although they were also among them, it did not have much impact on their future life.

It's just rape. To put it bluntly, just think of it as a one-night stand with a man. As long as you can think positively about it, it's not a big deal at all.

He Shan was different. She experienced unforgettable nightmares every day and night.

"At least, she didn't kill us..."

Jiang Lili might have felt guilty, so instead of blaming Ding Yunjie, she kept speaking for her.

It has already happened, and it has been several years. It doesn't matter who the suspect is. It's just an answer.

But I didn't expect that the answer would be so unexpected, like a dream, like a fictional story.

"We are the ones who should apologize, not her."

Ren Dan stared at Jiang Lili in a daze. She didn't expect that the other party could be so open-minded.

After a long silence, she sighed and had to admit that it was indeed them who caused Ding Yunjie to be hurt and ultimately ruined Ding Yunjie's life.

The cost of a "joke" is really too high. This is how things are in the world. No one can predict the future.

Chen Yi has done everything he should do, and the rest can be left to Lu Minghe and Zhao Qiming from Jiangcheng.

With such a big case being solved, it was natural for Director Chen to hold a celebration banquet for the task force. The venue was chosen to be a star-rated hotel in Yicheng, and the per capita cost was not cheap.

The celebration banquet is usually paid for by the organizer. Chen Yi roughly estimated that the cost is about two to three thousand yuan, not including drinks.

The wine we drank was not expensive, costing less than one thousand yuan.

Since the research team came to Yicheng, they have not attended any banquets, so Director Chen made up for it under the pretext of celebrating their success.

It was just a normal interpersonal interaction. Chen Yi ate the meal calmly. Whether in the officialdom or the business world, drinking is indispensable. This is a culture formed in the country for thousands of years. At the dinner table, Director Liu fully demonstrated his "advantages" and kept praising Chen Yi for being worthy of his reputation and being able to solve such a complex series of cases within a month.

He was telling the truth and was not exaggerating. Everyone agreed and recognized Chen Yi's abilities from the bottom of their hearts.

Chen Yi returned the favor and praised Director Chen, and in the end he made Director Chen feel embarrassed.

After three rounds of drinks, the two of them got together to chat.

"Look more, walk more, think more. These are the original instructions from the provincial department. I don't quite understand. Old Chen, do you understand what they mean?"

Although Chen Yi drank a lot, he was not drunk and his mind was still very clear. Although the task force's mission was over, the investigation team's mission had to continue.

During this period of time, he met many people and saw many things. Compared with other cities, Yicheng is more sophisticated. The more sophisticated a city is, the more likely it is to have problems.

Perhaps, this is what the provincial department is concerned about.

The sudden words made Director Chen's face look serious. Now that he was mostly sober, he knew that the research team's visit to Yicheng was definitely not just a formality.

Discover problems, analyze problems, and solve problems.

We are now in the stage of analyzing the problem.

In fact, the provincial department has no control over him. He is under the jurisdiction of the county city, but whether he can be controlled or not depends on who is in charge. The research report is on Fang Songping's desk and will definitely be brought up at the meeting.

Now that it's brought up, it's no small matter.

Since Chen Yi has made it clear, it seems that he has a good impression of me, which indirectly tells me that I will not make a big deal out of some things.

"I understand." Director Chen nodded. "Yicheng has a large population and a low crime rate. This is an advantage. Where there are advantages, there are disadvantages. Don't worry, brother Chen. We will discuss the relevant matters and focus on implementation at the meeting."

Chen Yi smiled and said, "In that case, thank you Director Chen for saving me a lot of trouble. Here, toast to you."

The two clinked glasses.

After the sensitive topic was over, Chen Yi mentioned Zhongluo Village. Director Chen said that everything had been arranged. In the next few years, they would focus on solving the issues in Zhongluo Village and would never allow living people to be buried in the mountains. At the same time, they would also consider eliminating the custom of burying the dead in the mountains.

"Someone suggested dealing with the wild wolves. This is not a good idea," Director Chen said.

Chen Yi took a sip of water and said, "This is only a temporary solution. Besides, wild wolves are protected animals. Can we kill them all?"

Director Chen: "Yes, I think so too. Let's take our time."

After dinner, Chen Yi returned to the hotel and called Fang Shuyu, telling her that the work in Fangyi City was almost finished and he might be able to go back before November.

Fang Shuyu was pleasantly surprised. The last time she heard Chen Yi's tone, he had already planned to celebrate the New Year in Yicheng. She didn't expect that he would be able to return to Yangcheng so long in advance. It seemed that everything was going well.

Success comes from ability. She has always believed in Chen Yi and can solve problems quickly when encountering difficulties.

"There haven't been any major cases in Yangcheng, right?" Chen Yi asked.

Fang Shuyu said: "No, don't worry."

Chen Yi: "That's good."

After chatting for a while, the phone was hung up, Chen Yi turned off the lights and went to sleep.

……

Director Chen was very efficient. After Chen Yi gave him a heads-up at the celebration banquet, he immediately began to carry out internal rectification work. The meeting outline was several pages long, and Chen Yi was invited to sit in.

Chen Yi went there happily, didn't say a word at the meeting, just listened with his ears.

I have to say that Director Chen is indeed not a simple person, otherwise how could he be the director? Although he is a chatterbox and likes to joke in front of Chen Yi, he is decisive and resolute when it comes to doing serious work.

The people below didn't dare to say a word, and when the sound suddenly became louder, it could scare some people.

Chen Yi listened very carefully. The theme of the meeting was prevention first and crackdown second, which was actually a warning.

The focus is to improve the legal awareness and moral level of the Yicheng police. A special ideological education class was also set up to organize various units to study and gain an in-depth understanding of practical experience (lessons from the past).

Finally, Director Chen formulated new rules and regulations for the city, clarified the duties and powers of the police, improved the incentive mechanism, and gave appropriate rewards to individuals and groups who performed outstandingly in their work.

In addition, supervision and evaluation have been strengthened, and regular inspections and assessments are conducted on every member of the police force, so that no one can escape.

Upon hearing about the inspection and evaluation, many people looked embarrassed, probably lamenting in their hearts that their future days would be difficult.

What we want is to make life difficult. Being a police officer is not an easy job. Even if no crime has been committed, one must perform one's duties conscientiously.

"I'm personally responsible for reporting complaints, so don't mess around with me!"

Having said that, Director Chen raised his voice and glanced at everyone with a sharp gaze.

"Surprise inspections should also be carried out from time to time, and problems should be corrected in a timely manner. Since you are paid this salary and wear this uniform, you should do your job honestly and conscientiously, and don't do useless things."

"Violators of laws and discipline will be severely punished!"

Chen Yi felt that he still needed to learn more from his predecessors in some aspects. This meeting was very successful, and he admitted that he could not compare to Lao Chen.

After the meeting, the two stayed and Chen Yi handed them a cigarette.

"Old Chen, I admire you. I am relatively young. Please don't be offended if I said something wrong during my time in Yicheng."

Director Chen regained his affability and said with a smile, "My dear brother, you are too polite. To be honest, before you came to Yicheng, I thought a young boy could show off his abilities. But the facts have proved that I was wrong. Seeing is believing. My dear brother is outstanding in all aspects. No wonder the provincial department values ​​you so much."

"You and I are close friends regardless of age difference. I hope to see you make further progress before I retire."

Chen Yi understood what it meant to go up one floor further, that was the deputy hall.

"Thanks for your good words, Old Chen. I think the work in Yicheng is almost done. Let's leave in a few days. We'll see each other again in the future if there's a chance."

Director Chen tried to persuade him, "Don't worry, brother. Although the work is almost the same, you can slow down. The provincial department sent you on a business trip for research, but it also means that you can have a rest. There is no need to rush back."

"The bureau has unsolved cases, but the suspects are all on the run. You can go look for them, brother. Aren't you tasked with clearing up the backlog?"

Chen Yi was slightly stunned.

Director Chen blinked and continued, "It is unlikely that the fugitive is hiding in Yicheng."

Chen Yi: "..."

He is impressed by Old Chen. You may say he is not good, but he does an excellent job. You may say he is good, but he has visible flaws.

Perhaps, this is a flesh-and-blood person, representing the majority of officials.

There is no such thing as being without flaws.

After leaving the Municipal Bureau, Chen Yi did not drive nor had anyone follow him, but chose to stroll alone on the streets of Yicheng.

A strange yet familiar city with busy traffic and crowds of people.

There are few luxurious cars, but more two-wheeled and three-wheeled vehicles. People are not as strict as those in Yangcheng in observing traffic rules, and pedestrians and electric vehicles crossing the road can be seen everywhere.

The vehicles were used to it and did not honk their horns. They just braked and slowed down, waited for them to pass, and then sped away.

We're all used to it.

It is not a wealthy city, nor is it a high-quality city.

However, it can be called a city with a strong sense of fireworks, and the happiness index is visible to the naked eye, which is much higher than Suicheng.

This is the difference between a fast pace and a slow pace. The fast pace has more opportunities and faster progress, but it will also face tremendous pressure and challenges. The slow pace is more keen on a peaceful life, focusing on inner feelings, without anxiety, only satisfaction.

It depends on personal choice, there is no absolute answer.

Yicheng, very good.
