Seeing everyone starting to get busy again, Li Yuanhong led the spearmen and began to move the roadblocks. After what happened just now, they had been delayed in this small village for nearly an hour and a half. It was getting dark early now, and it would be after six o'clock the day after tomorrow. When it got dark, Li Yuanhong really didn't want to spend the night in these mud houses.
The idea was good, but the reality was cruel. As soon as Li Yuanhong moved away from the first roadblock, he saw Erya running over in a hurry and running directly to the armored vehicle where Dr. Han was. Judging from the nervous look on his face, something happened again. Something happened, so Li Yuanhong also followed.
When they arrived at the door of the armored vehicle, they heard Erya shouting anxiously to Han Yuyao: "Doctor Han, come with me quickly to have a look. Several people are seriously injured. I'm afraid they will die soon!" Crying.
Upon hearing this, Han Yuyao quickly grabbed the medical kit hanging on the wall of the car, and ran to the village with Erya quickly, asking about the specific situation as they walked.
Li Yuanhong wanted to follow him, but there were many women involved here, and even a grown man couldn't get involved, so he had no choice but to give up. He returned to the road and continued to clear the roadblocks. When the sun turned west, Dr. Han had not come out yet. It seems that I will be forced to live here today.
The night wind here is already very cold, and most people are hiding in their houses to keep warm. Although it is an adobe house, fortunately, every house has a fire pit, and each house has firewood for burning, so Li Yuanhong can make people burn hard. , and burned the selected better houses warmly. Although he couldn't leave, the work still had to continue. Taking advantage of dinner time, Li Yuanhong asked about the results of the things they handled today.
The first one to speak was Erya. With anger still on his face, Erya recounted the atrocities committed by those villains: blocking cars and carjackings, killing people and grabbing supplies, raping women, abusing women, etc. Anyway, those guys had done all the evil deeds that Li Yuanhong could imagine. . After listening to Erya's angry statement, Li Yuanhong thought for a moment, and then said to Erya calmly: "These statements of yours are very irritating, but this is not the emotion you should have. I asked you to rescue them. Understand Regarding their situation, you only paid attention to how they were victimized, but you did not check their identities, why they came here, and who were the people who persecuted them. Were all the people arrested involved, or just a few people? Participate. Also, you have to ask about the identities of those arrested. This will give us trouble in our next step."
"Are those people very polite? So...I just..." Erya didn't know how to continue.
"It doesn't matter, this is your first time dealing with such a thing. You must be careful in the future. No matter what happens, your emotions should not be influenced by others, otherwise it may cause immeasurable losses." Li Yuanhong comforted Erya. Then Li Yuanhong turned his attention to Wang Jingrong.
"Ahem..." Wang Jingrong cleared his throat first and said: "There are a total of twelve people who were arrested, ten of them were with Zhang Facai at the entrance of the village. Zhang Facai is the guy you wiped on the neck. The other two They were guarding those women in the village. I led people to sneak attack, knock them unconscious and arrest them. Now these people are being detained in the yard next door. I asked Zhao Rui to lead people to guard them in shifts. These people were divided into two groups. There are four villagers in this village, and a few others are Zhang Facai's drinking friends. Before the end of the world, they went to a prairie pasture in Mongolia Province to steal things. As a result, they came back overnight and encountered the end of the world, so they occupied the village together. .”
"It seems that sometimes bad people are not necessarily bad!" Li Yuanhong sighed.
Next, Dr. Han talked about the conditions of the women. A total of eight people were rescued. Most of them had simple skin injuries. The three more serious women were seriously injured. They may not be able to get out of bed in the short term, but they have already been injured. There is no danger to life. However, the trauma is not the most serious. The real damage is the psychological trauma. If they cannot come out of the shadow, they may be disabled. After saying this, Han Yuyao's expression became much darker.
Li Yuanhong thought for a moment, and then said in a firm voice: "Heart disease needs new medicine. These people have been hurt, and there must be justice to help them get out of the shadows. Tomorrow, we will let these victims judge those who have hurt them." people!"
The night wind was cold and cold, and many lives were drowned in the darkness of the apocalypse, but the light will eventually return. The next morning, Li Yuanhong led everyone back to the road. The difference from yesterday was that a row of big men tied up with five-flowered flowers stood at the entrance of the village. , after a night of hunger and cold, these people no longer had the fierceness of yesterday. They all hung their heads, waiting for the judgment of fate. And those women who had been hurt by them were sitting on soft beds and were carried opposite these people. Today they will judge these people who have hurt them.
Li Yuanhong came to the road with the spearmen, and then began to speak loudly to everyone present: "Today, we will hold a trial here. Some people may ask, it is the end of the world, the law is gone, how can we still Why are you doing that formality?" Li Yuanhong paused, glanced around, and then continued: "This is not a formality, but our insistence on the bottom line of mankind. Is the end of the world scary? No matter how many zombies we kill, , every time I face them again, I will feel flustered, but I believe that one day, we will kill them all. But if we humans lose our humanity, then what is the difference between ourselves and the walking corpses. If We humans have really lost our bottom line, and that is the real end of the world. In today’s trial, we will give dignity to the guilty and a warning to the innocent. The end of the world does not mean the loss of conscience. Okay, I’ll stop here. , and then Police Officer Wang will preside over the trial." After saying that, Li Yuanhong walked aside.
Next, Wang Jingrong walked up. This time, Wang Jingrong put on his police uniform again. He solemnly walked to the middle of the crowd, then raised his right hand, placed it on his heart and began to say: "Today, I, Wang Jingrong, Rong, I swear with my heart that I will be fair and righteous, impartial, not condone evil, and will not suppress kindness. Any grievance will be washed away, and any crime will be punished. I swear with my heart!" After saying this, Wang Jingrong said deeply He bowed deeply to everyone.
The formality was over, but the people present did not feel bored. On the contrary, the atmosphere became more solemn, and the following trial became more heated. The injured women painfully counted the crimes of the big men opposite, each murder, one after another. The evil deeds of rape were told in tears. Several women fainted from crying and were rescued by Dr. Han who was standing by. Li Yuanhong and others did not interrupt these women's statements. Li Yuanhong communicated with Dr. Han in advance. However, these women's emotions must be vented, otherwise they will not be able to get out of the shadows, which will be even more painful for them, so Dr. Han can only stay by and pay attention silently.
Most of the big men on the opposite side lowered their heads and raised their heads without shame, but a few of them acted as if it had nothing to do with them, squinting upward from the corners of their eyes and curling their mouths, as if they were still mumbling something. After these women finished their statements, Wang Jingrong turned to these people and asked, "Do you have any other defense?"
"We admit that most of what they said is true." One of the older, stronger men said. This strong man had no expression of remorse from just now: "But we are also forced to do this. If we don't If we do, Boss Zhang will kill us. He has killed several people who opposed him before, so we are really not guilty!"
As soon as the man finished speaking, the people behind him also echoed: "Yes, yes, we are all forced, not of our own free will."
At this time, Wang Jingrong said with a gloomy face: "Can a forced sentence make you crazy? There are so many of you, but you can't beat Zhang Facai alone?"
"We are really forced. He has a gun in his hand, and there is nothing we can do!" the strong man said with a pitiful look. Others also pretended to be pitiful.
"I have said before that sins will be punished here. No matter what reasons you have to defend your sins, your sins must be judged. You just said that you admit the evil deeds mentioned by the women opposite. , this is enough. Now I pronounce the verdict that the criminal opposite has admitted the crime and is sentenced to death for the sake of good conduct and will be executed immediately!"
As soon as the verdict was announced, the strong man who had just pretended to be pitiful immediately became panicked and shouted: "You can't do this, we can kill zombies, we are still useful, but you can't do this!"
Others just cried bitterly and kept mumbling: "Please spare me, please spare me!"
Others showed a vicious nature, full of foul words and constant cursing.
Li Yuanhong was really troubled by what he heard, so he ordered the gunmen to gag these people's mouths, and then twelve gunshots ended these people's criminal lives.
Before that, Wang Jingrong asked Li Yuanhong why he had to execute him by firing squad. Wouldn't it be enough to chop him with a knife or stab him with a gun? Use a gun to return bullets. Li Yuanhong replied: "With guns, the sound of gunfire can serve as a deterrent and warning. At the same time, the sound of gunfire can also comfort the souls of those who died unjustly."
