Rebirth of Minister Qi
Chapter 91 Excavation Site
Qi Tongwei followed the Criminal Investigation Brigade and Director Huang of the Shangqiao Police Station to the crime scene.
The subordinates lit up the room with searchlights. The three suspects were all controlled and handcuffed and stood aside. The shortest of them was only 1.5 meters tall in his school uniform, not even as high as Qi Tongwei's chin, but what they had done was already earth-shattering.
Two guys dressed like gangsters with dyed yellow hair were beaten so badly that they couldn't even stand up straight. The one in school uniform, on the other hand, looked nonchalant and stood aside.
Li Bo, captain of the Criminal Investigation Brigade, is questioning three people.
"Is anyone buried here? Speak."
The two hooligans nodded, but the short guy in school uniform sneered.
"I do not know."
Director Huang standing by kicked him. The police officer next to him wanted to stop him, but when he saw Qi Tongwei's cold eyes, he stopped. There is no such thing as civilized law enforcement these days. Every suspect who comes into the police station will be given a beating to intimidate others. It's just that this guy looked too small and it was a bit difficult to beat him.
"I ask you, is anyone in here?"
Chief Huang grabbed Zhang Chusheng's hair and asked, then kicked him hard again. The size difference between the two was too great, and the strength difference was even greater, so the suspect was almost kicked away.
"Okay, once you confirm this is the place, dig."
The police officers who had already cordoned off the scene were standing by with tools in hand. When they heard Qi Tongwei's order, they immediately started digging.
In less than two minutes, the discovery was made.
"Director, we have discovered something!"
As the soil was dug up bit by bit, the forensic doctors saw the victim's body and went up to take over the scene.
Made a preliminary judgment.
"He was a male of about 16 or 17 years old. He was injured by a blunt object. He had multiple wounds on the back of his head. His skull was probably completely shattered, and his face was also smashed.
There were multiple sharp wounds on his body and dirt in his nasal cavity. The initial assessment was that he was suffocated to death after being buried alive after being seriously injured. However, judging by the amount of bleeding, it was also a fatal injury and he would not have survived for more than a few minutes.
Prepare for autopsy."
These days, people do things in a very rough way, and autopsies at crime scenes are a very common phenomenon. However, Qi Tongwei couldn't let them do that at the scene, because the victims' families and villagers had surrounded the place, with hundreds of people coming. If an autopsy was performed on the body on the spot, the family members would probably go crazy when they came in and saw it.
"Wait, cover it with a cloth and take it back to the police station for autopsy. The forensic personnel at the scene will stay to collect evidence. The murder weapon must be found."
The forensic doctor was still a little unconvinced and wanted to question Qi Tongwei, but was stopped by Director Huang standing nearby.
"Are you crazy? You dare not obey orders. The outside is already surrounded by villagers. If you perform the autopsy on the spot, it will immediately stimulate the villagers and cause a mass incident.
Go back and carry out the order."
Qi Tongwei glanced at Huang Liangyong, nodded secretly at his political sensitivity, and called Li Bo and Chen Guangwei over.
“The scene is now handed over to you two, you must do your best in the next step of the case.
I'm going to appease the people.
Also, this case needs to be reported to the Municipal Bureau. Guangwei, you call the Municipal Bureau's Criminal Investigation Brigade and ask them to join the task force.
Although this case is not complicated, the impact will be huge. If we make a mistake, we will be blamed. Do you understand?"
Qi Tongwei took off his cap and grabbed his hair fiercely. The miserable condition of the child just now made him feel uncomfortable even for a veteran like him. However, he was the director. If he showed any unnecessary expression, it would affect the combat effectiveness of his subordinates. He could only remain expressionless, keep calm, and try his best to comfort the family members.
Qi Tongwei came to the family members. Several women were supporting each other with a glimmer of hope in their hearts. Father Wang was looking at the familiar Director Huang and Qi Tongwei with hope.
Director Huang told the parents in a trembling voice.
"Mr. Wang, don't get excited. The child is gone."
This statement set off an explosion at the scene. All the women could not stand and started crying. The village cadres standing by could not hide their anger either.
"Where are those three beasts, are they in there?"
"Calm down. It has already happened. You should trust our public security organs. You are also a village cadre. You should help calm the family members."
The person who spoke was the secretary of the sub-district office who had just arrived. Most of the cadres from the sub-district office had arrived, and many of them were trying to stop the villagers from coming in.
"Secretary Zhao! Village officials are also human beings. The one who died in there was my nephew. How can you ask me to stay calm? I don't want to be a village official anymore. I want to avenge my child."
This sentence again ignited the emotions of the crowd, and hundreds of villagers began to push the police officers present.
At this time, Qi Tongwei took out a big loudspeaker and spoke from a high place.
“Comrades, calm down. This is a society ruled by law, and you will not be allowed to resort to lynching.
Think about the people who are still alive now, is it worth it?
If you beat them to death, you still have to arrest and sentence them. We all have lives to live.
Let's leave the matter to the police, please. Everyone should trust the government."
Some rational street office cadres also began to speak out to dissuade them.
"Fellow villagers, this is our Public Security Bureau Chief Qi, he is the one who eliminated the evil forces in this town.
Last month, the child of the Wu family in Xiaqiao Town was kidnapped by gangsters, and it was Director Qi who led people to rescue them.
We have to trust him.”
After hearing the village cadres talk about what Qi Tongwei had done for everyone, some villagers began to calm down and think about the consequences of the matter.
"Director Qi, you must give us an explanation. Our child cannot die in vain."
Qi Tongwei was still a little embarrassed and could only try his best to comfort them, because according to the current law, the youngest of these suspects was only sixteen years old, and the two older ones could indeed be sentenced to a longer term. They were said to be eighteen according to the local custom and were not yet eighteen years old in actual age. Judging from the scene, the two of them were probably accomplices, and the main offender was this minor, so in total they would be sentenced to about fifteen years.
The principal offender is only sixteen years old. He cannot be sentenced to death no matter what. The best outcome is life imprisonment. Considering the juvenile status, the sentence will be lighter, so fifteen or sixteen years is the maximum.
"I can only guarantee that everything will be done in accordance with the laws and regulations, and there will be no bias."
Qi Tongwei himself felt these words were pale and powerless. Age was a dead end. The law would never execute a criminal under the age of eighteen, no matter what he had done.
It was precisely because of this sense of guilt that Qi Tongwei ignored Huang Liangyong's beating of Zhang Chusheng. If it were under normal circumstances, he would never watch a child who was only 1.5 meters tall being beaten.
The villagers at the scene gradually calmed down and went home after being comforted by the village cadres and street office cadres. They were not from the local village, so it was quite troublesome for them to go back at night, so the local cadres found a few buses to send them back.
