Chapter 16 Mysterious Spontaneous Combustion
On the day after the case was solved, I returned to school. Chen Ling also sent me a text message informing me that if He Xiaofei and Roy had time, they would go to the court to listen to the verdict.
I did not refuse and went to the appointment as scheduled a month later.
The day of the appointment was ruled by the Supreme People's Court of the People's Republic of China in accordance with the law.
The defendant Bai Xiaodie was sentenced to death for intentional homicide and was executed immediately and deprived of political rights for life.
The defendant Song Yang was sentenced to death for intentional homicide and was executed immediately and deprived of political rights for life.
Bai Xiaodie and Song Yang did not choose to appeal and pleaded guilty in court.
After leaving the court, Team Huo and Shen Ling were waiting for me at the door.
"Lu Huan, you are in your junior year, and you know that it is difficult to find a job now. Do you want me to report directly to the higher authorities and let you join the police force. With your ability, you can handle special matters." Team Huo looked at me with a smile.
"Yes, Lu Huan, this case was solved 24 hours a day, breaking the records in our bureau, and even the department praised you." Chen Ling added beside him.
I hesitated for a moment, not knowing whether to agree. The reality is indeed as Team Huo said, and the job is really hard to find now, but if I join the police force, it also means investigating the truth of my grandpa and taking revenge for my grandma and parents will slow down, which I cannot agree.
So I chose to refuse. Fortunately, Team Huo and Shen Ling also expressed their understanding, but I still hoped that I could go back and think more.
On the way back to school, He Xiaofei said to me: "Brother, after graduation, you go directly to the public security bureau to be a policeman. You don't need to take the exam and directly provide civil servants. How can you refuse?"
I shook my head and said, "My situation is quite complicated, forget it."
"Okay, brother, since you don't want to enter the system, I won't go to the exam anymore. Why don't we start a business together?" He Xiaofei hugged my shoulders and talked about his thoughts on entrepreneurship.
"Don't think about it anymore. When you become the boss, the grass on my grave will grow more than 2 meters high." I joked.
But who would have thought that just a joke at that time, He Xiaofei actually made me look at him with admiration in the future.
"Okay, wait, Lu Huan, I must see what the business elite Boss He is." He Xiaofei clenched his fists and threatened me.
"Is Heshen's harmony? Haha." I burst into laughter. This was the first time I have laughed seriously since my grandmother and my parents passed away.
Just as He Xiaofei and I were teasing each other, Chen Ling's phone call arrived.
"Hey, Xiao Banxian'er, are you here at school now?" Chen Ling asked on the phone, and seemed a little anxious when she heard her voice.
"Not yet. I just sent Roy back to her unit and am rushing to school now." I didn't know what Chen Ling had to do, so I didn't joke with her.
"Okay, don't go back to school. Come to the Ouya Garden on Suzhou Road immediately, and I'm rushing there too." Chen Ling said anxiously, "For the absenteeism, I'll talk to Team Huo and ask him to say hello to your school leaders."
"Okay, thank you, Xiaofei and I will go there right away." After hanging up the phone, He Xiaofei and I said, there is probably a new case.
"Master, Ouya Garden on Suzhou Road, I won't go to the University of Technology."
Half an hour later, He Xiaofei and I rushed to Ouya Garden, while Chen Ling arrived 10 minutes earlier than us.
"Some people in this community get married. It's really unlucky to encounter funerals." He Xiaofei pointed to the dragon gate at the entrance of the community and said.
"Okay, stop talking, let both parties hear it, and you won't beat you up." I said to He Xiaofei with a smile.
Before we could get off the bus, we saw Chen Ling greeting us from afar.
"What happened? Sister Chen." After getting off the car, I looked up at the name of the bride and groom, and I went straight to Chen Ling.
"Lu Huan, that's right, the corpse is mysteriously ignited, and forensic doctor Zhu refused to come, so I want to invite you to have a look." Chen Ling said embarrassedly, "I didn't expect forensic doctor Zhu to hold such a grudge."
"It's okay, there's no butcher Zhang, so why don't you eat a pig with hair?" I said with a smile, "Wait. Once the case is solved, we will get the bonus. He wishes the forensic doctor regret it."
After saying that, Chen Ling led He Xiaofei and I to the scene of death.
"Look, that's where the corpse was in his lifetime, but because of fear of scaring the masses, the corpse was brought back to the bureau in advance." Chen Ling said, pointing to a burnt place in front.
"Well, has the identity of the deceased been confirmed?" I asked.
"It's confirmed that the deceased is the bride. Today is the day of marriage. Many people are on the scene, so there is no need to investigate more." Chen Ling said.
"Wedding scene?" I vaguely felt that the bride's spontaneous combustion might have been a deliberate murder.
"It's so miserable. The marriage has not been completed and I've lost my life." He Xiaofei stood in the corridor and said, "This is the bride's family is really rich. You see the corridor covered with the word 囍.
"No, this is the groom's house. Our marriage customs here do not have the custom of worshiping heaven and earth in the woman's family." I corrected He Xiaofei's statement.
He Xiaofei nodded and said, "It's true, that's why the groom's family is very rich."
"Let's go, go to the corpse location to take a look." I said to Chen Ling.
When I arrived at the location where the corpse was just placed, I looked carefully, but found no valuable clues.
"No one has moved the scene. It is very close to the Shigu District area. The nearby police can arrive in 5 minutes." Chen Ling looked at me and frowned, thinking that I thought someone had moved the scene.
"No, I think there seems to be no clues at all except for the burning traces of the corpse. It's a bit strange." I looked at the dark ground and thought to myself what was wrong.
"Can it be the clue on the corpse, not here?" He Xiaofei glanced at it and said.
"It is possible that there are no valuable clues here. Let's go and see the corpse first." I stood up and said helplessly.
In the afternoon, after a meal between He Xiaofei and I went directly to the Municipal Public Security Bureau, and Chen Ling was waiting for us at the gate early.
"It's really inconvenient. It takes a long time to register when entering the door." He Xiaofei complained.
"There is no way, the law enforcement agency is relatively strict. Otherwise, I would ask Team Huo to get you two a special consultant certificate. It is similar to the assistant police certificate. We can do it in our own bureau." Chen Ling thought of a solution.
He Xiaofei immediately agreed: "This is a good idea."
I smiled bitterly and said, "Then we will sell our lives to you Miss Shen."
Chen Ling laughed when he heard this and said, "I dare not accept your little fairy's life. By the way, don't call me Sister Chen in the future. If you are too frugal, just call me Ling'er."
"Then the pirate ship can only get on." I said helplessly.
"Congratulations on joining my pirate ship." Chen Ling smiled and reached out his hand.
