Hu Jian was stunned by the question. He sized up He Yu and asked, “What crime is he suspected of?”
“First, he is suspected of rape! Second, he is suspected of intentional homicide!” He Yu said.
“It’s that serious?” Hu Jian was taken aback. Although he had heard some information about the case when he received the police report, he did not expect it to be more complicated than he thought.
Yang Guang nodded. “When I arrived at the scene just now, Sister He Hua had already passed out. There are scratches on her neck too!”
He Yu pulled Li Hehua’s hand and said, “There’s still flesh under her fingernails. It must be Fu Zhonghua’s. I think you can take it down as evidence, officer!”
“…” Hu Jian took a look and was at a loss for words.
Xu Ling frowned and looked at him seriously, “Officer Hu, what are you doing? It can’t be that you know this person and want to cover up for him, right?”
“Of course not!” Upon hearing this, Hu Jian quickly shook his head and said, “Hongqi Town has always been safe and sound. I just didn’t think such a vicious case would happen!”
“The evidence is all here. It’s useless even if you don’t believe it!” Xu Ling said, took out her phone, and continued, “How about this? I’ll contact my friends at the County Bureau and see what they have to say!”
“No need. It’s more appropriate for me to report this matter!” Hu Jian quickly stopped her and said to Yang Guang, “I’ll take this person away first.”
After saying that, he looked at Li Hehua and said, “Also, this person should follow me to town and make a statement too. She has to tell me in detail what happened!”
“No problem. I’ll leave the suspect to you. I’ll send Sister He Hua there!”
After saying that, He Yu and Xu Ling supported Li Hehua and left.
Looking at the half-dead Fu Zhonghua, Hu Jian was suddenly in a difficult position.
Fortunately, Yang Guang reached out and lifted the fellow up with one hand. Then he said, “Let’s go. I’ll help you send him to the car!”
Hu Jian was stunned by his actions. After a moment of silence, he nodded and said, “Okay.”
The group of people crossed the river. Although most of the villagers had gone to work, there were some elderly who had difficulty getting about and were still in the village.
When the people saw someone in Yang Guang’s hand, they took a closer look and recognized the person to be Fu Zhonghua. With this, their expressions immediately changed. They did not dare to ask what had happened and could only secretly discuss it.
Under the watchful eyes of the villagers, Yang Guang threw Fu Zhonghua into the police car and said to Hu Jian, “Officer Hu, you go ahead. I’ll take the car in the back.”
“Okay. By the way, what does that chubby girl do? How can she drive such a branded car?” Hu Jian asked.
“She’s from the He family in the provincial capital. She’s my friend,” Yang Guang said.
“Oh,” Hu Jian had never heard of the provincial capital’s He family, so he only nodded blankly. However, he could tell from the way He Yu spoke that she was no ordinary person.
He did not ask any more questions and quickly got into the car.
The police car drove in front while He Yu’s driver followed behind, everyone related in the car.
He Yu and Xu Ling were not the only ones in the car. Mrs. Niu had also come with them.
She was enraged by Fu Zhonghua’s behavior, so she specifically wanted to testify!
On the way, under everyone’s comfort, Li Hehua recovered from her shock, and her emotions gradually stabilized.
He Yu said at this time, “It’s fortunate that today’s incident can be considered as a shock without danger. Sister Hehua, don’t worry. With what happened just now, Fu Zhonghua is dead for sure!”
“Huh?” Upon hearing this, Li Hehua and Mrs. Niu were both shocked!
“It’s not what you think. I mean, he can’t escape this time. He will be sentenced to at least a few years in prison!” He Yu explained.
“You scared me. I thought you wanted to kill him!” Mrs. Niu said.
“If the law didn’t forbid it, I would really want to kill this guy who bullies women!”He Yu said.
“Just let him get the punishment he deserves. There’s no need to dirty your hands!” Xu Ling said.
When the car arrived at the Hongqi Town police station, the group of people got out of the car.
Today was a working day, thus all the police in the police station were around. Seeing such a big scene, everyone came out.
Hu Jian arranged for someone to take Li Hehua to make a statement. Then he looked at Fu Zhonghua, who had come to. He turned to look at Yang Guang and said, “With his injuries, I’m afraid he won’t be able to speak clearly even if we interrogated him!”
“It’s alright, I have a way!” Yang Guang sneered. He reached out and grabbed Fu Zhonghua’s chin. With a light squeeze, the fellow screamed and opened his mouth.
Then, a pill entered his mouth, and Fu Zhonghua was immediately stunned!
“Kil— He wants to kill me!” Fu Zhonghua could not speak clearly but still shouted!
Hu Jian was speechless. He glared at him and said, “What are you shouting for? This is the police station. No one can kill you!”
“If I had wanted to kill you, I would have done so already. There’s no need to wait until now!” Yang Guang chuckled as well. Then, he turned to look at Hu Jian. “In half an hour, his mouth will return to normal!”
He Yu interjected from the side, “If this guy refuses to admit it, then we can only take evidence. Officer Hu, should we also make some witness statements?”
“There’s no need for that,” Hu Jian shook his head. “Let me question this guy first!”
He could finally see that Yang Guang and this girl from the provincial capital had set their eyes on Fu Zhonghua!
Thinking of this, Hu Jian could not help but feel pity for Fu Zhonghua. He thought to himself, “you brat, you’re in big trouble this time!”
Then, he brought Fu Zhonghua into the interrogation room, while Yang Guang and the others waited outside.
Time passed very slowly, and everyone seemed to be a little impatient. Xu Ling even wanted to give Lu Wenwen a call and ask if she could rush over.
However, Yang Guang stopped her and said that they should wait. After all, Hu Jian was still quite a righteous man. Yang Guang believed that he would be fair and wouldn’t mess around.
Half an hour passed, and another hour passed. It wasn’t until it was almost noon when Hu Jian hurriedly came out of the interrogation room.
“How was it?” Yang Guang immediately asked.
“That fellow knows nothing about the law. He admitted everything!” Hu Jian smiled bitterly and continued, “He admitted all of his actions, but he kept saying that he just wanted to be intimate with his wife. He didn’t know that even if they weren’t divorced, such behavior that goes against the will of the woman is still illegal!”
“Since he admitted to attempted rape and almost strangled Sister He Hua to death, then can he be convicted?” He Yu asked.
Hu Jian shook his head. “It’s not up to me. He has to be sent to the Procuratorate and be convicted by Court!”
“I know the procedures!” He Yu said, then asked, “Has Sister He Hua’s evidence been collected?”
“Yes, she’ll be out soon!” Hu Jian said.
“That’s good then!” He Yu nodded and said to Yang Guang, “Let’s have lunch in town to calm Sister He Hua down. Bring me to the mayor in the afternoon!”
Hu Jian was taken aback, “The mayor? I have enforced the law impartially with no favoritism or fraud.. You can’t just complain about me!”
