Chapter 107 Epilogue: Three Months Later(1/2)
Three months later, Mobei University of Political Science and Law, Graduate School of Criminal Investigation.
Xu Tiannan closed his notebook and said to the three students: "That's what happened. Yang Wanli finally lost to his own arrogance!"
There was silence in the office for a long time. For a long time, Fatty pursed his lips and sighed: "Yang Wanli committed a heinous crime. No matter how tragic his previous experience was, it was never an excuse for his crime. Even if he killed all evildoers,
No, otherwise what’s the point of having laws?”
But soon, another student named Glasses put forward a different view: "I don't think so. There are many people who have broken the law now, but before these people are tried, there is always a scapegoat who will stand up and take the blame.
, even if the police use all their strength to find evidence and convict them, these people will still come out in a few years, and they will still have the huge illegal gains they obtained before going to jail and continue to do evil. Therefore, at certain specific moments, this society
There will still be a need for a team like executioners, which is also a deterrent to those who do evil."
Fatty curled his lips and said, "Ouch? You're a criminal investigation major, so you can say such a thing!"
Glasses said dissatisfiedly: "What's wrong? Brother Nan has spoken freely today. I'm just expressing my own opinions. I always believe that the meaning of the law is to deter those who do evil. Since it is a deterrent, I think that treating certain people
Some extremely vicious people, well... such as those dealing with traffickers, fraudsters, rapists, etc., I think the current punishment is too light for these people, and we should even refer to the ancient methods, such as skinning,
Cracking a car, cutting in half, lynching, etc., these are the best deterrents to those criminals! And this is exactly what the executioner team did in this case."
Glasses said everything he was thinking in one breath, causing everyone in the office to stare at him dumbfounded. Then he did not forget to look at Xu Tiannan and asked: "Brother Nan, what do you think?"
"This..." Xu Tiannan thought for a moment. He originally wanted to answer this question in a tactful way, but in the end he decided to tell the other person directly, so he slowly explained.
——"Glasses, regarding the first question you mentioned, in fact, one aspect of the existence of the law is to deter criminals, but fundamentally, the meaning of the existence of the law is still to maintain fairness and justice in this society, and to serve the society.
Establish a stable order."
——"The emergence of a team of executioners like Yang Wanli may seem to please people for a while and shorten the time when evil will be punished. But don't forget, while I was handling this case, there were already
To commit imitation crimes."
——“People are always willing to believe in what they want to see, such as evil people being punished by heaven, well-dressed dignitaries falling from the altar, and other misfortunes of others. But who knows, when everyone is measured by their own inner weight
When defining this world, when everyone sees what they want to see happen, who is the real 'good' and who is the real 'evil', and who can guarantee that what happens in front of them is real?
, is it fair?”
——"As the saying goes, justice outside the law is by no means justice, but the weight and measure of each person's inner hatred, greed and favoritism."
——"At the same time, as for the harsh punishments you mentioned, such as traffickers being punished, fraudsters being cut in half, and rapists being physically castrated, this kind of punishment seems very satisfying."
——"But have you ever thought about what if there is a miscarriage of justice? How to make up for the irreversible damage caused? Why does our country now need the approval of the Supreme Court for the death penalty? That is because of the consideration of human life.
Above all, we must be cautious, more cautious and more cautious.”
——"Taking a step back, even if there is no miscarriage of justice for these criminals, in addition to maintaining social fairness and justice, the existence of the law should also leave a space. This space is called "giving the victims a chance to survive."
space"."
——"For example, rapists or traffickers will definitely not escape the death penalty if they are caught. So do you think they will give their victims a way out after they notice the trouble?"
After listening to the long words, the glasses were silent for a long time, but in the end they still stubbornly said: "Then... how about this, change the punishment methods that currently apply the death penalty in our country to those cruel punishments in ancient times, don't
Let these evildoers die happily, let them endure a hundred and a thousand times more pain than the victims, and then die without dignity."
As soon as he said this, Fatty said to the glasses uncharacteristically: "Hey! Glasses! This seems to make some sense! If you do this, it will not increase the terms of the death penalty. Anyway, those photos that should be sentenced to death will
The sentence is just a different execution method, but the deterrent effect is like a rocket!"
It was rare that Fatty agreed with him for once, and Glasses smiled proudly, and then asked Murong Shui: "Ah Shui, what do you think?"
Murong Shui hesitated and said: "It seems... makes sense!"
Xu Tiannan took a sip of tea and said slowly: "According to the records of "Zi Zhi Tong Jian", in later generations there was a cruel law that treated common people and powerful nobles equally. How cruel was it? Let me tell you this,
If Shui Gen steals an apple today, then we, as your family members and neighbors, will be beheaded in the same way. Is this law cruel enough? Is it a deterrent enough?"
Seeing that the other party did not speak, Xu Tiannan added: "But it is precisely because of such an extremely cruel law that regards human life so little that a large number of extremely vicious officials were born. Under internal and external troubles, they were wiped out in less than 4 years.
.It can be seen that when treating criminals, even those who commit heinous crimes, it is by no means crueler, the better. After all, human nature... needs to be guided."
After finishing speaking, Xu Tiannan closed his notebook and said to the students: "Okay, today's discussion ends here."
"Hey! Hey!"
The porcelain doll pointed at the glasses and Fatty with dissatisfaction and shouted: "Brother Nan! They have said what they should say and asked what they should ask, but I haven't asked any questions yet!"
"Oh! Sorry for forgetting you." Xu Tiannan smiled awkwardly, sat back on the table, made a "please" gesture and said, "You can ask."
The porcelain doll blinked, first looked at Xu Tiannan, and then fell on Murong Shui's face, asking seriously: "Ah Shui, have you forgiven Brother Nan?"
Murong Shui was dumbfounded, "Huh? Forgive... what kind of forgiveness?"
Porcelain Doll smiled evilly and said: "Think about it, he went to visit your parents when you were not at home without your consent, and he also conducted an investigation into your living situation! Xiang Xiaoli said this is
Invading personal privacy is obviously destined to become a stumbling block in your future relationship!"
"Go go go go!"
Xu Tiannan picked up his notebook and drove the three students in front of him out. After hearing the laughter of the three people walking away, he returned to his seat and got busy.
In the blink of an eye, it was lunch time again. At this time, Murong Shui had already forgotten what Porcelain Doll had just said. However, when she placed a stack of materials needed for the next class in front of Xu Tiannan, she suddenly said in surprise:
"Boss? What...what have you been doing these past few hours? You've even held the book upside down!"
Xu Tiannan suddenly came back to his senses. He straightened the book again, and seemed to have made up his mind at this moment, so he asked: "Then have you forgiven me?"
Hearing this, Murong Shui couldn't laugh or cry, "I said you've been thinking about this issue all morning?"
Xu Tiannan nodded, "It's better if you tell me."
"All right!"
When Murong Shui spoke, he deliberately raised his tone, and habitually put his hands on his hips, making his best "teapot" response: "In view of your previous use of concealment and deception to investigate my private life, this girl has already
Forgive you!"
Xu Tiannan let out a long sigh, but before he could catch his breath, he heard the other party say: "It's just..."
"But what?"
Murong Shui: "But my mother doesn't know about this yet! I can't guarantee that she will be as generous as me when she finds out that she really wants me!"
"Tiannan!"
Wen Sibao seemed to be born with a tendency to appear at inopportune times. At this moment, he suddenly opened the door of the office and said to Xu Tiannan: "Something happened!"
"What's wrong?"
Wen Sibao lowered his voice and said: "Yang Wanli was in the detention center...killing someone!"
Xu Tiannan frowned and said, "Who did he kill?"
Wen Sibao took out a photo. The photo showed a short man with a short haircut and an average appearance, but the joints in his throat were obviously severely misaligned.
"Here's the thing."
Wen Sibao explained: "After the last interrogation last week, Yang Wanli confessed to the crimes he committed. At the same time, because of the intervention of media and public opinion in this case, it is not impossible that the boy will eventually be sentenced to a suspended death sentence."
.But the bad thing is that something happened to this kid yesterday. During the regular break time when he was released from prison every day, he suddenly attacked the man in the photo, causing the man's throat bone to shatter and then died after resuscitation failed."
Xu Tiannan said: "Did the trial reveal the motive for the murder?"
Wen Sibao said: "That's the strange thing. That guy was very cooperative with our police during interviews before, but this time I don't know what happened. He kept saying the same thing over and over again."
"What words?"
Wen Sibao sighed helplessly and slowly uttered four words: "He wants to see you."
…
In the detention center, after passing many checkpoints, Yang Wanli was finally taken to the interrogation room.
He seemed to be in a very good mood today. Not only did his face not have the haze after being imprisoned for a long time, he even asked the prison guard for an electric shaver to take care of himself early this morning.
At this time, Yang Wanli was wearing handcuffs and shackles, sitting at the other end of the table, staring straight at Xu Tiannan as if there was no one else around.
"Yang Wanli, I have brought you the person you want."
While Wen Sibao was talking, he took out a pack of cigarettes, but Xu Tiannan said, "He doesn't smoke."
Yang Wanli smiled and said, "How do you know I don't smoke? Last time you went to the company to find me, I smoked in front of you."
Xu Tiannan: "If you hadn't deliberately avoided the jammer that time, you might not touch that pack of cigarettes now."
"Oh? Can you tell me how you saw it?"
Xu Tiannan: "If you are looking for me just to play reasoning games with me, I am very busy."
Yang Wanli smiled to himself, and finally said slowly: "Do you still remember Eagle Eye?"
The name Eagle Eye is definitely a Category A concern for the current police, because according to the previous video on the night of 13k's death, Eagle Eye is really the biggest drug lord on the border west of Mobei, and he is Lin Wanshan.
The person I want to make friends with over and over again.
There are rumors in the world that Hawkeye is very mysterious, and no one knows his true identity, but making friends with him has been Lin Wanshan's obsession for many years, because he firmly believes that as long as he wins over Hawkeye, there will be a steady supply of goods, and from then on he can
Establish a direct channel from the border to Mobei City, leaving behind all middlemen.
At this time, when Wen Sibao heard the name, he immediately became energetic and asked: "Yang Wanli! Do you know where Eagle Eye is?"
Yang Wanli glanced at the other person and responded unceremoniously: "Officer Wen, if you say one more word, our conversation will end here."
Seeing this, Wen Sibao immediately closed his mouth and listened to the other party gradually telling the truth.
——"Maybe the police have noticed that No. 3 is the daughter of the director of the orphanage that the bank company once occupied. The bank used a terminal cancer patient to kill No. 3's mother, forcing the newly adult No. 3 to have no choice but to
