Chapter 108: 108 She wants justice, and she wants his life to pay for a life
108 She wants justice, and she wants his life to pay for a life.
"Half and half? What does that mean?"
Zhang Xuefeng really didn't quite understand what she meant.
Tushan Jiu lifted her eyes to look at him and said, "Half done by people, half done by ghosts."
Now Zhang Xuefeng was completely bewildered.
Was it a gang job?
But how could such a gang be paired like this!
Tushan Jiu ignored Zhang Xuefeng's out-of-control expression, said "keep up," and then walked downstairs.
Zhang Xuefeng quickly reacted, greeted Song Guogang, and hurriedly followed along.
Not many in the police station had signed the confidentiality agreement.
So only Zhang Xuefeng was allowed to follow Tushan Jiu, while the others were led by Song Guogang to wait outside for Zhang Xuefeng's action signal.
From here, you only need to cross one big road to reach the factory.
Tushan Jiu wasn't in a hurry either, walking leisurely.
This part of the development zone lacks the bustle of the city center; it's a peripheral area, even quieter.
Only occasionally would a few vehicles pass by.
There weren't many people in the shops along the road either.
Arriving at the factory gate, the factory inside was brightly lit, the security guard booth also had its lights on, and inside sat an elderly man with a full head of white hair.
He wore a security uniform, sitting there listening to the music "For You" playing on his phone.
Seeing someone come outside, Jiang Wu glanced at the visitor, then stood up, took the registration book from the table, and came out of the guard booth.
"Outsiders aren't allowed to enter here. What are you doing?"
Zhang Xuefeng took out his ID and said, "Hello, police. We just received a report that Li Tingfeng from your factory died at home. We need to go inside to investigate; please cooperate."
When Jiang Wu saw the ID, he was visibly stunned, then asked with surprise and doubt, "Li Tingfeng is dead? How did he die?"
Zhang Xuefeng nodded, didn't answer him, and said, "Old man, stop prying. Open the door; we need to go in for a bit."
Jiang Wu frowned and said, "That bastard Li Tingfeng—his death is no surprise; he deserved it."
Hearing that, Zhang Xuefeng looked at him suspiciously and said, "Old man, what do you mean?"
"What else could it mean?" Jiang Wu pressed the button on the remote in his hand, then casually threw the remote through the half-open window onto the table inside.
"I didn't expect you to come this fast. I turn myself in—I killed him."
"My name is Jiang Wu. I am the father of Jiang Zhiyi, who died in an accident at this factory years ago."
"I came to work here in order to lurk and find evidence that Li Tingfeng sexually harassed my daughter. My daughter's death was definitely not an accident; it was deliberate on the part of that bastard."
"Li Tingfeng is a murderer!"
The sudden confession made Zhang Xuefeng narrow his eyes.
On a deep autumn night, the autumn wind rose, blowing a chill into people's hearts.
The singing drifted out through that window, the volume not low.
"If tomorrow you suddenly grew up a lot
would I feel at a loss?
I really want to shield you from wind and rain and confusion.
so that your sky sees only rainbows." (1)
Tushan Jiu beside him remained silent, staring fixedly at Jiang Wu's hair.
Although he is clearly under fifty, his hair has already turned completely white.
This made her think of the saying, "How pitiful are the hearts of parents everywhere."
She didn't move; Zhang Xuefeng saw it, and his doubts and intuition told him that this old man was definitely problematic.
Seeing that Zhang Xuefeng didn't immediately arrest him, Jiang Wu continued:
"I never thought of escaping legal punishment; my goal is clear—to kill that bastard Li Tingfeng. So I've laid my cards on the table: I killed him, and I wanted him dead!"
Tushan Jiu still didn't move, and Zhang Xuefeng likewise stayed still to watch developments.
Jiang Wu, unable to contain himself, shouted: "I already said I killed him—what are you waiting for? Aren't you police? Arrest him!"
Then Zhang Xuefeng finally spoke: "Alright, if you killed him, tell me how you did it."
Just now, when he heard him say Li Tingfeng was dead, he saw the shock on his face and in his eyes.
As expected, when Jiang Wu heard Zhang Xuefeng ask about the murder process, he hesitated for a moment, then stiffened his neck and said, "How else could I have killed him? I just did it that way. Are you being too picky? Someone turns themselves in and you don't even arrest them—are you still police?"
Zhang Xuefeng sternly said: "Be honest! Obstructing police work, covering for others with false testimony—we will detain you criminally according to law!"
Jiang Wu smiled, indifferent, and held out his hands forward, saying, "I said I killed him......"
Suddenly a voice interrupted him.
"It wasn't him who killed him; I wanted to kill him."
A woman in work clothes rushed over, shouting anxiously.
Jiang Wu saw the person, his expression tightened a bit, and said, "Xiuling, what are you doing here? You're not supposed to be on night shift—go back. I handled this myself; I'll take responsibility."
Zou Xiuling, panting, stopped before everyone, ignoring Jiang Wu's words, and said, "I killed him—I smothered him and put him in the fridge. I wanted to freeze him to death, to make him taste that feeling."
Jiang Wu shouted in anger: "Don't stir up trouble—how could a woman possibly do this? It was me!"
Zou Xiuling looked at him and said, "Jiang Wu, the young lady has returned. Last night when I went back to the dorm, I heard that bastard apologizing to a girl, and he personally admitted that he was the one who operated the warehouse door switch from outside."
"He said he was just joking with the young lady and giving her a little 'lofty' lesson, but then the boss suddenly came for an inspection, and he forgot the young lady inside, wuwuwu."
"That bastard—when it comes to matters of life and death, can you just say you forgot and forget? He deserves death a thousand times over!"
Zou Xiuling wiped the tears from her face and continued, "So I found a wire, opened his door, and then killed him!"
Maybe heaven is helping me; I just covered his mouth and he died, his eyes stared wide open, dying with eyes open, hahaha, dying with eyes open is good, he deserves to go down to the eighteenth level of hell!
Although he's dead, I want him to also experience the pain a young woman felt when she died; I want everyone to know this is his retribution!
Zou Xiuling pulled out her phone from her pocket, "Right, this is the evidence I recorded; I'll hand it all over to you, please give my maiden justice."
She isn't afraid of any death penalty; she's just afraid Li Tingfeng won't die.
She also doesn't understand the law; if anything changes, he might only get a few decades, and she feels that's not enough to relieve her hatred.
So she wants both justice and for him to pay with his life!
