At 8:20 in the morning, in the restaurant of Nansha Island Happiness Hotel, a conversation continued.
After analyzing the whole process, Song Wen said, "I think this evidence should be enough."
Li Ting'er sat in front of the table, scratching on the table with her slender fingers, silently.
Song Wen continued to ask: "And you did this, should it have something to do with your father's death? Let me guess, does your mother have a good relationship with the baker? And they... are sucking those laughing gas. ?"
His words were like sharp needles, stabbing Li Ting'er's chest.
Li Tinger took a breath and finally said, "My family has been living on this island since I can remember. It turned out that my parents owned a farmhouse. At that time, the family was poor, but I was very happy."
She still remembered that time when there were few people on the island, and their family lived here. Although busy, they were very happy. This is a pure land far away from the city, like the original Eden of human beings.
"Later...the family was short of staff, my dad recruited a chef, the man came to the island, he persuaded my dad to let dad change the shop into a cake shop. The business of the cake shop was very good, and then he found out that the supervision on the island Not strict, when I went outside to buy goods, I brought the laughing gas over here..."
"Following this, there are also some people who are fascinated by this kind of thing, and those tourists who are not very aware of prevention, have little resistance to it... So, the business at home is getting better and better... "
When Li Tinger said this, she raised her innocent face: "You have probably only seen scenes where some people are smoking, right? And I see those every day, when I eat, and before I go to bed. See, those adults, holding those colorful balloons, it's like holding the most delicious candy."
"They described Yang Ling as the man who brought happiness. My dad, mom, and many, many others quickly joined in. From the first happiness, to the subsequent addiction..."
"I also thought about asking my parents to quit the balloons, but they value those things more than eating... More important than my daughter... I persuaded my dad to give up running this kind of thing, but Dad said that I was a child and didn’t understand anything. He made more and more money, expanded his cake shop, and even searched for Shuijun on the Internet, turning it into an online celebrity shop…”
The girl's words had been suffocating in her heart for a long time, and at this time she was in a hurry to spit it out.
This kind of thing is not done in one day, but changes gradually, which is probably the scene drawn by the two paintings hanging in the cake shop. It looks like a happy life, but it is actually in danger...
Li Tinger blinked her eyes and continued: "I hate the expressions of those people who suck in laughing gas. At that time, they were no longer enough to be called human beings. That kind of stupid and obsessed state scared me and made me sick."
"One time, the adults even brought the laughing gas in front of me and asked me to try it. I took a sip, and my brain exploded in an instant. I ran away in a panic, but the people behind me laughed and said, I'm a gutless kid."
"Laughing gas, cigarettes, and alcohol, I don't understand why adults are interested in these things. In my opinion, these are dangerous, smelly, and drinkable. I was only ten years old and knew how to laugh. Qi can erode people's brains and nerves, smoke can make people's lungs black, and alcohol can damage the stomach and liver. Adults think that they have conquered these things, but in fact, they have become slaves to these things, being eaten bit by bit. body."
She raised her head and asked in a childish voice: "Why don't adults understand these principles?"
Hearing this, Song Wen corrected their previous guesses and asked, "Yang Ling is selling those laughing gas here. Hasn't anyone come to inquire?"
For such a long time, so many tourists come and go, how did this thing go unnoticed on the island
Li Ting'er shook her head, and then whispered: "There are some customers here who come here specifically to sell this item, and they naturally won't betray themselves. A small number of customers hide away and pretend not to see it when they see it. , They were afraid of contaminating them. Someone came to ask, but at that time Yang Ling bribed the police who came to investigate, saying that the laughing gas was brought by the guests themselves, and had nothing to do with the cake shop, and the matter was over. "
Laughing gas is different from drugs after all, and anti-narcotics officers are not even willing to make a trip to this remote island for these things. Even if someone comes over, it is nothing more than confiscation and fines. .
Having said this, Li Ting'er lowered her head: "Then, that happened. During the summer vacation, a female student died on the island from an overdose of laughing gas... My parents, and Yang Ling. The first thing that came to my mind was not to call the police, but to deal with the corpse and cover up the truth…”
"I saw with my own eyes that they sawed the elder sister's body into pieces and threw them into the sea secretly at night..." Li Ting'er clasped her arms as she spoke. Now, she can still dream occasionally when she has nightmares. to such a scene.
Hearing these words, Teacher Su lowered his head and clenched his hands...
Song Wen is now basically certain that the bone they picked up may belong to the missing girl at the time. He frowned and asked softly, "Since you already knew this, why didn't you call the police?"
"I called the police!" The girl turned her head and said, "I secretly called the police with my dad's cell phone, but then my dad found out. I can only say that I dialed the wrong number and hung up. Later, the record of the communication It was seen by Yang Ling. Yang Ling became wary of my father, and at that time my father also became afraid, afraid of being implicated... He proposed that he wanted to stop the business of laughing gas, but he was immediately opposed by my mother and Yang Ling."
Li Tinger continued: "I didn't realize until after my father died. Before that, Yang Ling and my mother secretly got together behind my father's back. They were afraid that my father would stop this profitable business and that he would betray him. The partner killed my dad and said he committed suicide. My dad was asking me what I wanted for my birthday the day before, but he cut his wrists the next day. My dad’s death definitely had something to do with them…”
When she said this, she raised her little face, her face was no longer expressionless, but extremely angry, "I don't want such a mother!"
Hearing this, Lu Siyu understood. The shopkeeper and his wife had already had a rift because of the laughing gas. Everything the girl said undoubtedly accelerated the tragedy.
"My mother was already a murderer, and I watched her turn into a pig-like cripple. Every day, apart from eating and sleeping, I often lie in bed sucking in laughter, with a stupid expression, every time I see her and kill her Dad's people kiss me... I can't wait to want them to die! They killed Dad before, and one day, they may kill me... If I don't do it, they will kill more people!"
"I must strike first! I must kill them!"
Speaking of the last sentence, the girl's face was hideous, and she was already roaring.
Step by step, the murderous intention gradually appeared.
The brutal murderer of this bombing turned out to be such a ten-year-old girl.
Maybe this small island used to be a pure land, like a carefree Garden of Eden, but with the arrival of Yang Ling and those laughing gas, everything changed.
The viper lures people into eating that sinful apple, ostensibly symbolizing a sweet cake shop, but actually planting the fruit of greed.
They concealed the truth about the missing girl. Yang Lingjiu occupied the magpie's nest, killed the original boss, got together with the proprietress, and occupied the cake shop...
This place has long since become Paradise Lost.
Ever since Prometheus stole the fire and Cain killed his own brother, mankind has started to sin. Desires, gluttony, greed, laziness, rage, jealousy, arrogance... fill the world.
This small island is far from the world, but it has become the best cover for sin.
Li Ting'er saw the adults lose their minds by smoking laughing gas, watching them go to extreme greed for ill-gotten gains, watching them kill themselves for their own selfish desires, watching them raise butcher knives to their relatives for financial gain...
A girl who grew up in such a world is no longer a pure-hearted person, and her outlook on life has long been distorted.
When the lighter was lit, her mother should have been in purgatory, surrounded by flames in an instant, and every inch of her skin was torn to shreds...
The flame was like the karmic fire of hell, and it also devoured Yang Ling who brought the laughing gas to this small island.
An explosion and fire that burns all sin to ashes in the form of sin.
Now, the murderer has confessed to the crime.
The restaurant was quiet for a while.
Song Wen looked at the girl in front of him: "Your last method is to choose to do it yourself? Did you burn your mother and Yang Ling to death in that way?"
Even if those are evil people, it is never a righteous act to end evil with evil.
Li Ting'er smiled, her eyes were red, and her expression was evil and ghostly: "I'm not an adult yet, how can I compete with adults? If I want to kill them, I can only use the conditions of those external forces. From the news of the flour mill explosion in the newspaper, there was so much flour in the cake house. Since then, I have been thinking about how to kill them!"
"This world is so disappointing to me... If growing up means facing such a world, then let me die now." Li Ting'er raised her head, and her eyes did not see the innocence, she said, "I Don't regret doing these things."
Song Wen continued to ask: "You didn't think that the fire might affect more people, or someone might lose their life because of saving you?"
Li Ting'er's eyes widened: "I can't control that much. Come and save me, that's what you have to come! Even if you are burned to death, you are asking for it yourself, and it has nothing to do with me."
Song Wendao: "Now, you will also be punished by the law..."
Li Ting'er had a grim expression, gritted her teeth and lowered her head, "I'm still young, and you are just a few nosy tourists! Those police officers won't believe your words... That footprint was just left by me when I passed by to check, flour. The incident, the explosion, I don't know anything, and I don't know anything! I won't tell those police officers anything!"
The girl in front of her, like a mouse in a cage, bared its teeth and claws at them, biting hard.
Originally, Lu Siyu had some sympathy for this girl, but hearing these words made his sympathy disappear.
The fact that she killed Yang Ling and Yan Min was another matter.
When Song Wen risked her life to save her, she said such words, in Lu Siyu's view, it was unforgivable!
"It's too late for you to say this now." Lu Siyu raised the phone on the table and looked at her indifferently, as if he was looking at a dead person, "Just now, our conversation has been recorded..."
Li Ting'er was stunned for a second, she felt as if she was being strangled by the person in front of her. There was a trace of panic on her innocent little face. At this time, she finally looked like a ten-year-old girl.
Then the girl changed her expression. Tears came to the corners of her eyes, and she said pitifully, "I... I was wrong. I did it because I was forced to do it. Can you not hand me over to the police?"
Song Wen shook his head and refused seriously: "I'm sorry, we are the police."
Li Ting'er's little face turned pale in an instant...
The size of the handcuffs was obviously too large. Song Wen took the girl out and asked Uncle Wang to lock her in a small sealed room in the hotel.
Then Song Wen turned his head to Teacher Su and said, "Professor Su, you should have found the answer you were looking for, right? You also know the whereabouts of your daughter."
During the second half of the interrogation just now, Teacher Su kept his head down and remained silent.
This kind of reaction just matched their speculation.
After he came to the island, Mr. Su asked about the missing girl. He disappeared for a while in the cake house, maybe he was looking for evidence, and some details after he rescued Li Tinger, who took care of the girl. Actions that children's people can do.
The man in front of him was a father who had lost his beloved daughter.
"It turns out that you already found out..." Professor Su adjusted his glasses, "The story Jiang Jiang told when he was on the boat... The one who disappeared on the island was my daughter... And my daughter took the surname of my ex-wife. , surnamed Zhao."
He smiled bitterly: "She... didn't delete my contact information to prevent fraud, but because her mother divorced me back then, she was afraid that her mother would get angry, so she memorized my number, every time Call me secretly..."
"I was the last to know about my daughter's disappearance on the island... At that time, I felt that her disappearance had many suspicious points. So I made a post on the Internet, listing all the suspicious points, and hoped Someone in the know can tell me the truth... But I haven't found the answer I want, so I organized this expedition and came to the island... "
"I am... my daughter who is not reconciled to my disappearance..." Having said that, Professor Su took a deep breath, took off his glasses, and wiped his tears with the back of his hands: "Thank you for letting me know. What happened to my daughter."
Lu Siyu turned around and asked him, "I want to ask you a question. You should have determined before this morning that this cake house may have something to do with your daughter's disappearance. But after the explosion, why did you Are you going there with us? Do you want to see your enemy die before your eyes?"
Teacher Su shook his head: "Although it has already happened, I never thought about it that way. I was thinking about whether I could rescue more people. Before dinner last night, I walked to the storage room behind the cake shop. Then I photographed the laughing gas...hopefully as evidence."
"I hope to find out everything so that my daughter doesn't die inexplicably. I don't want such a tragedy to happen again. But I still feel that the law should be used to solve everything."
Lu Siyu didn't believe what he said, and asked again, "Have you ever thought about avenging your daughter?"
Teacher Su looked at him and said, "If I use the method of killing the other party to take revenge, I may have a moment of happiness and comfort, but no matter what happens to me in the future, whether I am judged or escape by chance, I will live in the shadows all my life. , become a person as sinful as a murderer. I don't think it is worthwhile to defend justice in my own way. I think if my daughter really has a spirit in heaven, I don't want me to use extreme methods to give Let her take revenge. I will try my best to send those bad guys to prison, and do my best to get them to be punished and punished accordingly. Only then will my life be freed from this, so that I can live a better life without regrets."
Faced with the same situation, everyone will have different choices.
In the face of the enemy, it is easy to take a step forward, but it is difficult to take a step backward.
Teacher Su is a dozen years older than Lu Siyu. He looked calm when he said these words, which somehow reminded Lu Siyu of his father.
If my father was still alive, would he have admonished himself like this
Lu Siyu has always been confused about how to face Moby-Dick, and now after listening to Teacher Su's words, he lowered his head and went through the contents in his mind. Then he found that these words calmed his restless emotions.
Lu Siyu raised his eyes and looked at the man in front of him. What people do has a lot to do with their own experiences. Mr. Su is a well-educated person. He has been kind to others all his life. He doesn't have enough hostility. If it weren't for the disappearance of his daughter, he would not have set foot here at all.
Because of this, he would try to save Chen Zui who was inhaling laughing gas, and he was willing to rush into the fire to rescue the enemy's daughter.
Lu Siyu is not such a person and cannot do such a thing, but he understands that there are such people in the world.
Ever since the Code of Ulnam was published thousands of years ago, there have been people who have followed the rules their entire lives.
There is evil in the world, and there is a hundred times the good that is equal to it.
Every case is a confrontation and confrontation between good and evil.
Lu Siyu felt that he was standing on the edge of good and evil, and he could enter the darkness by taking a step forward. Fortunately, when he was hesitating before, Song Wen hugged him from behind...
In front of the floor-to-ceiling windows of the Happiness Hotel, the three suddenly fell silent at the same time.
Then Teacher Su sighed, "I also know very well that the law is not sound. If I want to pass the law and send the bad guys in, it may be an extremely difficult road. When things develop to this point, I think, let a girl use the It is the tragedy of a legal society to use such a method to uphold the so-called justice and eliminate those laughing gas."
Having said this, Professor Su looked up at the room where the girl was locked, "I don't know how this girl will be treated, whether there are any relatives or guardians at home... If possible, I would like to adopt her. "
For minors, the law is always open to the side. Now Song Wen doesn't know what will be waiting for the girl. He somewhat understands what Teacher Su is doing. This is the father of a dead daughter, and he needs consolation.
But Song Wen still reminded Mr. Su: "Even if Yang Ling and that woman deserved what they deserved, many things are just the girl's words, and the truth still needs to be verified. Anyway, she is a mother-killer. What she has seen and heard is not the reason for her wanton evil, you have also heard what she said just now, she is a scheming murderer with an evil side in her heart."
Professor Su nodded: "I know, because of this, I want to adopt her even more. I have not yet formed the three views of a child, and I have encountered such a thing... I don't think her essence is a bad person, and no matter what, She is also the one who avenged my daughter... Maybe, this is also a kind of fate."
