He was in the army at the time, and his family introduced him to a woman named Wang Qiong.

Later, the two got married and divorced.

Zhang Yixuan just finished writing the materials in his hand, raised his head, and said to Hu Pingtao: "This story is quite bizarre. Wang Qiong's family has always said that Xie Anguo abused her. Later, the two divorced, and one night Wang Qiong

She ran out crying and never came back. Half a month later, someone found a female body by the river. The Wang family went to see it and determined that the deceased was Wang Qiong."

Hu Pingtao frowned and asked, "It's just family identification and no autopsy?"

Zhang Yixuan explained: "An autopsy must be done. But it was different back then! A few decades ago, DNA testing technology was far from what it is now. Besides, doing DNA was very troublesome at that time, so I didn't want to worry about one more thing.

It’s better to think of one less thing, and a lot of eucalyptus as long as some evidence is useful.”

Hu Pingtao heard Zhang Yixuan's voiceover and asked: "So?"

"So the person who was in charge of this incident at the time... believed that Xie Anguo was highly suspected of committing the crime." Zhang Yixuan replied.

The more Hu Pingtao listened, the more confused he became: "They are husband and wife! Besides, Wang Qiong ran out on the night of the incident. What does it have to do with Xie Anguo?"

"The main reason was that when Wang Qiong ran away, he chased her out." Zhang Yixuan explained: "That night, many people saw the couple running out one after the other, including the Wang family."

Hu Pingtao's frown deepened: "This doesn't mean anything! No one saw Xie Anguo commit the murder, and there is not even biological comparison evidence."

Gu Dewei was listening all the time. He also shook his head at this: "Captain Hu... Captain, you'd better keep reading! To be honest, I have dealt with quite a few cases, but this murder is still outrageous.

"

In the past, he was used to calling Wang Xiongjie "Team King", but when he suddenly changed it to "Team Tiger", Gu Dewei found it a bit difficult to pronounce.

Hu Pingtao followed his instructions and continued to read the pieces of material in the file.

Xie Anguo is from Ninghai Village, Gudu District. The local police quickly captured him, but no matter how he was interrogated, Xie Anguo refused to admit that he killed Wang Qiong. At the same time, he continued to complain to the judicial organs.

Because Xie Anguo refused to admit it, the relevant organizations formed a joint department to conduct a comprehensive review of the case and at the same time conducted an autopsy on the female body found by the river.

It was found that the deceased was about fifty years old.

Wang Qiong was only twenty-six years old at the time.

Seeing this, Hu Pingtao couldn't help but cursed: "What kind of trick is this? An old woman in her fifties is getting together with a woman in her twenties. Who was doing this at that time?"

Zhang Yixuan had already learned about this scandal in detail, got angry, and lamented. At this moment, he was very calm and said calmly: "It's normal, not strange. Our country's laws are gradually improving little by little. Do you think

Think about the severe crackdown in 1983. How many people were arrested across the country at that time? Before that, the social atmosphere was really bad. There were idle people everywhere. Not to mention robbery, gangs were mainly gangs. Fighting was common and serious threats.

It affects people’s property safety and even endangers their lives.”

Hu Pingtao was deeply touched by this: "Yes! At that time, our country had just gone through a special period. During the reform and opening up in 1979, many policies were concentrated together, people were impetuous, and many unqualified law enforcement officers sneaked in.

The public prosecutor's office has led to a large number of unjust and false accusations."

Zhang Yixuan said: "At that time, some cases were not investigated at all. The investigators only looked at the surface, and even judged based on their feelings without evidence. Let's talk about Xie Anguo! After the deceased was found at that time, the cause of death should be determined first.

Determine whether it was homicide or suicide

Killed, or caused by an accident. In the end, even the cause of death was not revealed, so they were busy concluding that the deceased was Wang Qiong, and Xie Anguo was the murderer... In such a situation, without knowing anything, they criminalized the suspect.

Setting up a eucalyptus is an extremely imprecise approach."

Hu Pingtao nodded solemnly: "In those days, some people... did do nothing but work. However, this kind of thing has been completely eliminated now."

Zhang Yixuan said: "In short, this case has historical reasons, and there must be elements of injustice and falsehood. But after all, it is an old case from decades ago, and the unclear parts... Well, it's really hard to say."

Hu Pingtao looked down while listening, but the more he looked, the more surprised he became: "Xie Anguo was imprisoned for twenty-three months and then released?"

"Because there is insufficient evidence." Zhang Yixuan explained: "The law enforcement concept at that time was different from now. Catch first and then release. This is to prevent the suspect from running away. Xie Anguo couldn't swallow this breath and has been petitioning since he came out."

Hu Pingtao put down the documents in his hands and asked: "Has the petition resulted in any results?"

"No." Zhang Yixuan shook his head: "But Wang Qiong's family didn't see it that way. They determined that Wang Qiong was killed by Xie Anguo. Since then, they often went to Xie's family to make trouble and rob other people's things. Xie Anguo was forced to do nothing.

The only option is to run away from home."

Hu Pingtao was silent and concentrated.

He has been at the police station for a long time and is very familiar with civil disputes. He also knows that many villagers only make trouble for money.

Especially when the parties are divorced and the woman's death is unclear, the deceased's family will often use this as a pretext to continue quarrels in the man's family for a long time.

If the man has a tough attitude and the family has a large population, the woman will definitely bully the weak and fear the strong and die down.

But if the man's attitude is weak and there are few people in the family, the woman will definitely bully him, even if she is unreasonable, she will still be reasonable, which will make the other party restless and even lead to the bankruptcy of the other party's family.

He tapped the files on the table a few times with his fingers, raised his head, and asked Zhang Yixuan, who was sitting opposite: "Do you have any new clues about this case now?"

"Clues..." Zhang Yixuan hesitated and replied: "During this period, Xie Anguo came to the bureau several times to report the situation."

Hu Pingtao was quite surprised when he heard this: "Didn't you just say that this person couldn't bear the harassment and ran away from home?"

Zhang Yixuan nodded: "This is a previous file record. Xie Anguo left the provincial capital and went to the coast, where he did business with his friends. He came back a few years ago just to find out what happened back then."

"As for what he said...according to what he said, there is something wrong with the Wang family. Wang Qiong is not dead, and is probably hidden by her family members."

Hu Pingtao narrowed his eyes: "Is there such a thing?"

Zhang Yixuan said: "The female corpse found by the river was obviously much older than Wang Qiong. Although the identity was not confirmed, it was definitely not Wang Qiong. Since then, Wang Qiong has never been seen again and has been missing."

Hu Pingtao asked: "You mean Xie Anguo found Wang Qiong?"

"He didn't say." Zhang Yixuan emphasized his tone: "It happened that the eucalyptus we had was in the final stage some time ago, and both parties were busy. It was Xie Anguo who was hosting Xiao Gu at the time. You have to ask him about the specific situation."

Gu Dewei said from the side: "Xie Anguo's words were a bit ambiguous. He did not provide specific clues. He only said that there was something fishy about this case and that neither the superiors nor the people in the village were fair to him. He also said that he had been bullied by the Wang family over the years.

Let us step in and solve the problem for him."

Hu Pingtao asked seriously: "What problem does he want to solve? In terms of personal reputation? Or in terms of economics?"

"All of them!" Gu Dewei said: "He didn't say it clearly, he just kept complaining. That's probably what he meant anyway."

Hu Pingtao thought for a moment and asked: "I just looked at the information. Xie Anguo is from Ninghai Village in our district?"

"Yes." Zhang Yixuan replied.

Hu Pingtao stood up from the chair: "Let's do it! While there is nothing to do today, Xiao Gu, you and I will go to Ninghai Village for a run."

Zhang Yixuan asked curiously: "Why, do you think this guy is behind something?"

Hu Pingtao explained: "Xie Anguo was arrested and released back then. No matter who it is, no one can swallow this breath. There are many doubts in the case, so I won't go into it. If Xie Anguo is a foreigner and a floating population, then

Therefore, it is very difficult to investigate. But he is a local and the people in the village know everything about him, so he can understand many situations."

"In short, some of the mistakes made back then must be corrected on our hands."

"Issues left over from history must be resolved. We cannot ignore them just because they are old issues. If Xie Anguo is innocent, we must give him justice."

…

Ninghai Village is right next to Dianchi Lake.

The Dianchi Lake in the past was not what it is now. The "Five Hundred Miles of Dianchi Lake" written by Sun Yanweng in the long couplet of the Grand View Tower is truly sparkling and vast as far as the eye can see.

The reclamation of land from the sea is also caused by historical reasons. The so-called "asking for food from Dianchi Lake" seems to be just a joke now, but this terrible mistake cannot be changed.

Xie Anguo's home is easy to find - Hu Pingtao and Gu Dewei drove a police car into the village, and they could find out by just asking anyone.

"That murderer lives at the east end of the village."

"Are you looking for Lao Xie's house? Keep walking along this road, turn left when you encounter a fork, then make two right turns in a row. It's the three-story building diagonally across from the small square."

"You police are here to arrest him, right? His house lives next to a small square. The first floor is made of red bricks, and the second and third floors are painted white. It's easy to find."

Most of the houses in Ninghai Village are old, half of them are old adobe houses, and about half of them are flat brick houses. There are also two- and three-story small buildings, but they are not many in number. The total number of them does not exceed ten.

Xie Anguo's home is one of them.

Gu Dewei drove the car, holding the steering wheel in his hand, and slowly drove into the village: "Boss, it seems that Xie Anguo has a bad reputation in the village!"

Hu Pingtao said calmly: "It's normal. Just look at the houses in this village and you will know that there is a huge gap between the rich and the poor. Those who have no money look down on the rich and are envious and jealous. The ratio of the number of people is very important. There are more poor people.

It will suppress the rich, and vice versa. In fact, there is no standard of good or evil in this kind of thing. When I see you having a good life, I get jealous and feel uncomfortable in my heart. Then I find faults to scold you, hurt you, and poke you in the back.

Your spine."

"Didn't Xie Anguo run away from home a few years ago? I guess he did make some money outside. After he came back, he built a new house, and the people in the village found it unacceptable. After all, Xie Anguo had served a prison sentence before, so these people had some concerns in their hearts.

The thoughts are also normal.”

The car drove into the small square and quickly found Xie Anguo's home according to the previous instructions from the villagers.

Hu Pingtao knocked on the door.

Xie Anguo was stunned when he saw two policemen in black uniforms.

Hu Pingtao was also looking at him.

Xie Anguo is thin and tall. Although he is old, he looks very energetic. He does not have much hair, so he simply shaved it all off. He stands upright with a straight back, which is probably a habit he brought from the army in his early years.

Hu Pingtao asked: "Are you Xie Anguo?"

The other party came back to his senses, nodded with his mouth slightly open, and asked anxiously: "You... have something to do with me?"

A gentle smile appeared on Hu Pingtao's face: "Don't be nervous, I just want to find out about the situation from you, I have no other intention."

Xie Anguo was a little unsure, so he hesitated and asked tentatively: "Are you... I've never seen you before!"
