A separate interrogation room is set up in the office building of the regional police station. Du Lin's interrogation alarmed many police officers. As long as they had no work at hand, almost all of them crowded outside the door of the interrogation room and listened to the interrogation process inside. Everyone is very curious about the interrogation of a "big man" like Du Lin who has a unique identity and status. Such big figures rarely get to be interrogated "alive". They either die from various accidents or end their lives in various ways.
For example, Godol not long ago.
The police officers have concluded that once a person with a more complex background and communication enters the police station for certain matters, if he cannot get out immediately, he basically does not need to go out. They know too many secrets, and these secrets are destined not to be discovered by ordinary people, so they can only protect those secrets with death.
Dulin is different. His background is quite simple. The only rumor now is that Dulin is Haidler's man and specializes in doing some dirty work for Haidler. Handler is not a local, nor is he from this state. Coupled with his race and some other reasons, he is not yet strong enough to get into the police station, and there is no way to make a detained person commit suicide. As for the accuracy of the news, it is not part of everyone's information collection. On the contrary, when they spread the "secret news" they know, they often add fuel to the fire.
"Do you know this person?", the deputy chief of the police station, a middle-aged man who looks a little sickly. His face is abnormally gray-white. Even in the cold late autumn, there are still some stains on his forehead and temples. beads of sweat. His arms were shaking slightly, so much so that the photo he held up was shaking constantly. "This family has disappeared, and now their property has become your territory. Do you have anything to say about this?"
Du Lin looked intently and saw that it was the man from a family of three on the farm. He nodded and said calmly: "I know him. He sold his farm to me."
Deputy Chief... His name is Steven, a very common name, and he lacks a sense of presence in the police department. His physical condition has never been very good and he takes leave at home almost all year round. Fortunately, Director Prondo is quite generous to his "own people", and he gave a good portion of his monthly salary and "subsidy" to this sick man, so that he would have enough money to spend even if he didn't work. For raising a family and seeing a doctor.
He rarely comes to the police station and only appears in the interrogation room of the police station when investigating some major cases. Some people say that this is a very powerful policeman. He has a smart mind and very keen observation. Very few criminals can escape his interrogation and investigation. As for whether this rumor is true, no one knows.
Steven put the photo down, picked up a handkerchief and wiped the sweat on his temples, "You killed him and his family..." Dulin raised his head slightly and looked at the deputy director. The deputy director had no fear or fear. Anyone who flinched met his gaze, "You pretended to buy his farm in order to seize it, and then after completing the formalities, you killed the family and took away the money that no longer belonged to you."
Du Lin smiled lightly and shook his head, "If you have evidence that can directly prove this, I may not be able to refute it, but before that, all these are your assumptions."
Steven also laughed, and he changed the topic, "You are very calm, to be honest, I have been a police officer since I was fourteen, and it has been thirty years... Thirty-one years, I have seen many criminals , some are violent, some are calm, some are crazy, and some are perverted, but they all have one thing in common, that is, they have enough age and social experience. I don't want to say that the world has forced them into that situation. , but I’m curious about what kind of environment created a person like you.”
"Calm, calm, and bold. You don't seem to care whether I can search for evidence, and you are very sure that I will not be able to find any clues..." When he said this, he picked up a pen and recorded some information in the notebook on the table. , "To be honest, I am already certain that you are the murderer. When a normal teenager faces the accusation of intentional murder, even if he is really innocent, he will show nervousness and a series of psychological reactions, because they I don’t know what I will face next, but you are so calm, so calm that it’s scary!”
"I think you seemed to have made all the plans some time ago and confirmed that you could clear yourself of the charges. So you knew you would be fine, that's why you were so calm, is that right?"
Dulin shrugged his shoulders, "If I say yes, will this sentence be used as one of the evidence against me? I'm sorry, I don't understand what you are talking about."
Steven put down the pen in his hand, tilted his head and looked at Prondeau sitting aside, and said with a smile: "A very cunning boy, and very smart. I believe these accusations should be true..." He picked up the pen. The approximately one-inch-thick file placed on the corner of the table on the right contains some evidence accusing Du Lin and the hometown association of crimes. "But if we want him to plead guilty, it may take a long time, and it will also be very difficult." "
Steven said it very straightforwardly and did not avoid Dulin. According to imperial law, the intervention of the suspect's lawyer must be after the first interrogation. This is to prevent the lawyer from obtaining or changing some information through certain channels from the outside world. , and then handed it over to the criminal suspect and asked him to lie during the interrogation.
Four years ago, a prominent actor was accused of brutally killing his wife and his wife's parents. After he was arrested, he refused to reveal anything related to the case, repeatedly emphasizing that he needed to be accompanied by a lawyer. Open your mouth. His first meeting with the lawyer was two months later. After a long period of time, the lawyer who was working outside established all the connections that needed to be made. Then during the meeting, he explained how he should face the interrogation, so that in the end With a series of evidence, the actor was acquitted in court.
In two months, the lawyer forged real mental illness certificates of "mania" and "paranoia" for him. Of course, the first diagnosis and treatment were a year before the incident. He also used money to bribe, not necessarily intimidation or use of power, etc., so that all the witnesses who testified in court agreed on the same story - the actor's wife had "actually" cheated on her long ago, and her father had been an alcoholic for many years and often threatened the actor to kill him...
With so much evidence and the "help" of half the jury and the judge, he regained his freedom.
Although everyone knew what was going on, he successfully exploited a legal loophole. For this reason, the Imperial Parliament proposed an amendment to the "Defense Act". The lawyer's intervention in the case must be after the end of an interrogation.
There are loopholes in seemingly targeted laws and regulations. As Kevin said, the more detailed the provisions, the more loopholes there are. This time, the loophole lies with the police department. The police in the police station have the final say on how the interrogation is conducted and the intensity of the interrogation. In the past they needed lawyers to bribe witnesses, but now they need lawyers to bribe police first, who... are the criminals.
If other factors are put aside, the first interrogation is indeed very important. The criminal must be in an unbalanced state of mind after being arrested. Since he can be arrested, it means that the police have a certain amount of evidence. But as to what evidence they have, whether it is important or not, the guy sitting in the interrogation position will definitely not Know. Under such circumstances, it is very likely that some words that should not be said will be said, and these words will be used as the most direct and favorable testimony in the final trial.
Du Lin is different. Steven has watched Du Lin sit down until now, and he has discovered the difference between Du Lin and others. He was so calm and calm when he walked in that he didn't look like a suspect about to be interrogated. It was like he was just going through a formality. Therefore, he decided to test Prondo. Prondo's silence made Steven understand that there may be other details in this case, so he decided to "give up" this interrogation temporarily.
The next step was just like going through the motions. He continued to use some of the collected evidence to accuse Dulin of possible criminal acts, but Dulin avoided his responsibility in his calm and rational answers. The more this happened, the more Steven felt that there was something wrong with this interrogation. At the same time, he also had some doubts in his heart about what role he should play now.
This is a question worth pondering. Living in this city, Steven has certainly seen too many dark things. He never thinks that he is the party upholding justice and justice, even if he has a representative on his head. Fairness and justice police badge. Be serious when you should be serious, and pretend to be confused when you should be confused. His health is very bad, and he doesn't want to die by a bullet instead of dying in a hospital bed.
He has seen too many young people ruin their lives because of their sense of justice, so he rationally chose the most appropriate way and pretended to be confused.
As he said to Prondo, this case was not easy to try, which showed his serious attitude and also paved the way for his subsequent confusion. After the interrogation, Steven's notebook was filled with three pages of written material, but if you look carefully line by line, you will see that what was written was all nonsense and empty words, without anything substantive.
The interrogation, which lasted for more than an hour, came to an end. Steven completed his work according to the procedure and quietly breathed a sigh of relief. He has to go to the hospital early tomorrow morning to get medicine. He doesn't want to waste his possibly limited time on this case that he can't do anything about. When he closed the notebook, Dulin also stood up. He walked to the interrogation table and looked at Steven, who was still sitting.
Inexplicably, this made Steven feel full of pressure. He looked at Dulin cautiously, and Dulin also looked at him.
"Would you be interested in working for me?"
As soon as Du Lin spoke, the tense atmosphere immediately dissipated, but it also made Steven a little dumbfounded. He shook his head with a dumb smile, "I'm sorry, I have no idea of changing my job for the time being."
Du Lin smiled nonchalantly and stretched out his hand, "One day, you will!"
Steven stood up, held Dulin's hands together, and then separated quickly, "Maybe, who knows?"
