Chapter 32 Weird
Chi Xia watched Luo Xun's car leave, his eyes full of thought. Why was he leaving at this time?
When she returned to the restaurant, Lin Wenjue and Cao Bin had already returned to the table.
"Why did Captain Luo leave? Is there something wrong?" She sat down and asked casually.
Lin Wenjue also had only a vague idea: "I just received a call from Director Chang, saying that there was a case that he had to go to, but he didn't explain clearly what it was. It seems that he doesn't know much about it. It's okay, it shouldn't be under the jurisdiction of the special case team."
Thinking of the phone call just now, Chi Xia had a deep thought in his mind.
Could it be related to Tu Guoan’s suicide?
Lin Wenjue was worried that Chi Xia would think Luo Xun was making up an excuse to leave, so he quickly said, "Chi Xia, Luo Xun is not good at expressing himself. You should have discovered that he usually does things without saying anything, and sometimes he doesn't spare others with his words..."
"I know Brother Lin."
Chi Xia laughed: "Captain Luo is a good captain. I am not angry, nor sad. Don't worry."
Lin Wenjue and Cao Bin, however, thought that she was just being polite. They listed Luo Xun's strengths at the dinner table, which made Chi Xia laugh.
But she was always absent-mindedly thinking about Tu Guoan. Why would a prisoner who was due to be executed in a week commit suicide at this time?
Could it be related to her going to find him?
But during the last meeting, Tu Guoan did not give any suspicious clues...
The voices of everyone talking rang in her ears. While picking up some food, Chi Xia recalled the details of her meeting with Tu Guoan.
On the other side, Luo Xun rushed to the First Prison at lightning speed, and the anxious prison director was already waiting for him at the door.
"You're finally here!"
Xiao Fang, the warden of the First Prison, is also Luo Xun's former friend in the police academy. They are in the same grade but different classes, so they have some friendship .
Luo Xun walked towards him and pulled his hair a few times in the night wind: "Death row inmate committed suicide? Lao Xiao, this is a bit unreasonable. What happened? Tell me in detail."
"Damn it, who said it wasn't true?"
Xiao Fang gnashed his teeth and said, "Why is he so anxious? He will die sooner or later. Why did he have to choose this method to commit suicide? My grandfather is celebrating his 90th birthday tonight and I can't even go back to celebrate!"
Luo Xun paused, looked at the resentful person, and couldn't help but smile.
"What the hell are you laughing at!"
Xiao Fang punched him: "You have to help me find out the truth about this, or I will be punished!"
"I just came to take a look at the situation. Don't count on me too much. This case is not my business. By the way, where did the person die?" Luo Xun asked him.
Speaking of this, Xiao Fang got angry: "This kid, I can't figure out why he did this no matter how hard I try!"
Luo Xun waited for his next words.
Xiao Fang said, "A few days ago, they had a fight in the cell. Tu Guoan was beaten the worst, with a cracked head. The others were all put in solitary confinement. His injuries were quite serious, so the prison area director applied for him to go out for medical treatment. Is there any problem with this process?"
"Um."
Luo Xun frowned and asked, "He committed suicide during medical treatment?"
"right!"
Xiao Fang sighed heavily: "While the prison guards were talking to the doctor, he tampered with the IV tube, and a lot of air entered the vein. This kid didn't say a word!"
Luo Xun couldn't understand it at this moment: "Is he sick?"
“Who said it wasn’t!”
Xiao Fang raised his head and glanced at the moon: "He didn't have any need to do that, didn't he? Luo Xun, you know how painful it is to kill someone with air, right? It's only been a week, why would he choose this method to commit suicide? It's not worth it!"
"Let's do an autopsy."
Luo Xun looked thoughtful: "As soon as possible, and we need to meet the people in the same cell with him."
"Um."
Xiao Fang's expression also turned serious: "I'll arrange it right away."
Luo Xun specifically called Ning Yi to come over for the autopsy, and Ning Yi was so angry that he yelled on the phone: "I think you are really shameless. Do you know what day it is today? Today is my wedding anniversary with my wife!"
"That's fine, you celebrate the anniversary first."
Luo Xun said considerately, "Two hours is enough, right?"
The answer he got was Ning Yi's gnashing teeth and cursing. The other party cursed at him and finally said, "Wait!"
Not long after the phone call, Xiao Fang arranged for Luo Xun to meet with several prisoners in Tu Guoan's cell.
Tu Guoan was in a cell with six people, and they came one by one to talk to Luo Xun.
All the conversations boiled down to this: it was Tu Guoan who took the initiative to provoke, and everyone started fighting because they could no longer tolerate it, but they could guarantee that they definitely did not kill anyone.
To be on the safe side, Luo Xun and Xiao Fang went to watch the surveillance video of the cell again.
To make sure that the prisoners were not lying, in fact, in the cell, except for the toilet which had some private space, everything else was exposed to surveillance, so it was much easier to confirm whether they were lying.
"Look here."
Xiao Fang pointed at the surveillance camera and said, "The prisoner went into the toilet first, and then Tu Guoan went in. The prisoner came out very angry. When Tu Guoan came out, there were no scars on his body, but it was obvious that the two of them struggled. If the other party wanted to bully Tu Guoan, he would wait a while before going in again."
"Um."
Luo Xun said: "The prisoner said that it was Tu Guoan who first provoked and cursed his mother, but he did not do anything at the time."
"This prisoner is called Li Xian, and he is the boss of this cell. He killed someone because the other party bullied his mother, causing her to be paralyzed. If Tu Guoan uses this to provoke others, he will be beaten..."
Xiao Fang looked puzzled: "What on earth does Tu Guoan want to do?"
"His purpose was to provoke a fight and get injured so that ."
Luo Xun repeatedly watched the surveillance camera in the cell: "He has provoked all the prisoners in the cell."
"And look."
Luo Xun zoomed in and slowed down the video of the fight: "Did you see it?"
Xiao Fang carefully looked at it twice and suddenly realized: "Look at his head. The most serious injury is where he hit himself!"
Luo Xun nodded: "I have seen the prisoners in the cell. They are all experienced. Even if they fight, they know the severity of the situation. All this was done on purpose by Tu Guoan."
"Deliberately committing suicide just to get out?"
Xiao Fang almost pulled out all his hair: "Why is he doing this? What does he want?"
Luo Xun was also very curious, why would a prisoner who was about to be executed try every possible means to commit suicide? Or choose such a painful method?
"Has anyone come to visit Tu Guoan in prison recently ?" Luo Xun clicked the pause button on the video and asked Xiao Fang.
Xiao Fang thought about it carefully, then shook his head hesitantly: "A few days ago, the provincial department sent people to question some serious criminals. Tu Guoan was among them, but he was not the only one. Many serious criminals in the prison area were questioned."
"The criminal psychology research activity of the provincial department?" Luo Xun asked.
"Yes, that's it. And this is led by Teacher Zheng. You should know that, right?"
Luo Xun did know that his teacher Zheng Jinghuai had started studying criminal psychology after retiring from the police station ten years ago. The last time Chi Xia asked him if he was at Dongzhou University in the morning, it was because there was no progress in Zhou Yanchen's case, so Zheng Jinghuai made a desperate call to ask him to attend his psychology lectures to change his mind.
Luo Xun had also heard from Zheng Jinghuai about this psychology research course. The provincial department attached great importance to it, and it was normal to send people to various prison areas to collect samples.
"What about his family?" Luo Xun asked again.
Speaking of this, Xiao Fang sighed a little: "This Tu Guoan has a twin brother. The two brothers are worlds apart. His brother is a successful entrepreneur, while Tu Guoan is just a repairman. The two brothers don't interact much. After Tu Guoan was imprisoned, his brother didn't come to visit him. But if there is anything that can make his life better in prison, he will find someone to follow up. It can be regarded as doing his best."
In other words, Tu Guoan's suicide was completely sudden and spontaneous?
Luo Xun thought it was unlikely.
"Let's first find the person who came to collect the sample and see if there are any clues that can be used when they ask questions."
Luo Xun glanced at the time: "Someone will come to perform the autopsy later. I will go back and report to Director Chang first. Maybe someone will take over this case."
Xiao Fang nodded solemnly: "Thank you for your hard work tonight. I'll treat you to dinner later."
Luo Xun chuckled and waved his hand at him: "Let's go."
