The beginning of a rumor is always due to an ulterior motive and purpose, and its effectiveness depends on how many channels of transmission there will be, and the virtual world undoubtedly gives rumors the possibility of unlimited expansion.
Since zero, the story of "urban management beating people" that has spread one after another has not caused a big sensation. Now that the spectators' nerves are so strong, it's not even news that people bite dogs. But what is surprising is that this unremarkable story is spreading at an astonishing speed. When more and more spectators click on the news with rich pictures and texts, they will feel as if their lungs will be blown away at a glance.
"Qinyuan County Urban Management Surrounded and Beaten Two Two-Year-Old Couples"
"Two owners of a hardware store were beaten and seriously injured by several urban management officers"
Lines of bold characters, accompanied by rich pictures, tell a tragic story: It is said that two old couples who opened a hardware store had a quarrel with the urban management because of the illegal occupation of the store in front of the store. The beating... The beating lasted for an hour, until the two of them fell to the ground dripping with blood. The picture is accompanied by scenes of being beaten, kicked, arms twisted, and head pinned. Even spectators who think this news is not eye-catching will be filled with righteous indignation.
Oh, by the way, the couple's names are Wu Xiangqian and Li Huilan.
Originally, if this matter was carefully considered, it would not be credible, but in this environment where public trust is extremely lacking, the more absurd things are, the more credible they are. Therefore, this story carrying many absurdities, with the countless incidents of the next day Spectators joined in the excitement.
QQ, WeChat, the front page of the small site, and the sub-page of the big site swept the Internet at once. I don’t know how many posts like this have been scattered, let alone how many inconspicuous links there are.
Boiling would not be enough, but the scolding was everywhere, and the direct consequence was that the phone calls of the local county party committee and county government office in Qinyuan County were immediately blown up at the moment of work. The webpage of the county government's image project originally had no traffic, but because of the overflow of visits that day, it directly crashed.
It was 9 o'clock when the urban management department received the news, and they were at a loss. It took more than an hour to figure out what was going on. It turned out that he was shot while lying down, rumors! The director wiped his sweat wildly, picked up the phone and hurriedly reported to the county party committee and county government.
At this time, a new piece of news came out: "The latest development of the incident: the urban management department denied it, and the relevant departments intervened in the investigation." The image that can reach the edge of the conference table, no one doubts its authenticity, is definitely a standard official phenomenon.
But it turned out to be fake. When the leader of the Urban Management Bureau saw this photo, his blood pressure rose on the spot. The photo of the bureau chief waving his fingers and speaking vigorously was a photo of a democratic life meeting, and someone grafted it on.
It was already eleven o'clock when the county government received the detailed report. Just such a ridiculous rumor was actually asked by the municipal party committee office.
Check, dig out this rumormonger!
At noon, Director Gu Shangtao of the County Public Security Bureau made a special trip to the county party committee and the county government to report on the matter in detail. The situation is like this. We just summoned the two suspects’ family members, and this happened against us... This is Put pressure on my handling of the case, we will never give in, and we must find out this black hand behind the scenes.
Yes, you can't give in, you must be caught and punished.
If the leader instructed, even if this happened, it would be dealt with in secret. It's a non-existent thing, are you afraid that you will discredit it
So this matter continues to ferment, and continues to spread to the big place...
…
There was a lot of noise outside, but there was no movement in Qinyuan County, and the errands still went to and from get off work on time, spreading this painful rumor. Those who are in business still open the door on time, listening to today's freshness. But, it's a little strange, the hardware store on Cross Street is really closed, and there are two police cars parked in front of it. Many people knew the details of the Wu family, and privately speculated that it might be related to the old case, which was much bigger than the beating of people by urban management.
Rumors spread quickly, this small place with farts on the street and stench at the end of the street is really not big, it's hard for you not to know.
The criminal police team was left in a place that was quieter than the county. The interrogation here lasted for two or three hours. The four guys from the county team politely invited the family members of the two suspects into the interrogation room. After a steaming breakfast, tea was poured for guests, and Wu Xiangqian, Li Huilan and his wife were stranded here like they were serving their parents.
I have been looking at the Internet for several hours, and after ten o'clock, Yu Zui and Yuan Liang discussed a few details, and it officially started.
Entering the door, taking a seat, gesturing for the jury to turn on the record, Yu Zui sat down slowly, looked at Li Huilan who looked like a clay sculpture and wood carving, just sat down, got up again to add a glass of water, and brought it to the old man respectfully.
He saw that the mother's hair was more than half gray, which was sad; he saw that Li Huilan's face was as rough as the growth rings of an old tree, which was bitter; he also saw that the old man's hands There are cracks all over the body, and the fingers can't be straightened, it's tiring.
At this time, he was a little strangely reminded of a character he had learned at school: Mrs. Xianglin, who lost her son and made her such a virtue.
Clearing his throat, Yu Zui started, and asked softly: "Aunt Li, hello... We came to you this time to ask about your son's situation?"
"You... came to my store to buy things one day?" The old lady's eyes were piercing, and she recognized Yu Zui all at once.
"Yes, but that time had nothing to do with the case, it was bought for someone." Yu Zui lied.
"Then what do you want to do? You guys know the situation better than I do. There is a new situation. You should know about it first. I have been in Qinyuan County and haven't been out of the county for more than ten years... Oh yes, you put My wife caught him, and I visited him, that's all." The old lady said flatly, at this age, she has no personal emotions for most things, even if it is about being treated unfairly.
"Before that, we want to know more about your son's growth experience, can you talk to me? I have seen pictures of him when he was a child, a very fat boy." Yu Zui tried to slow down his tone.
"I haven't seen him for more than ten years. I almost forgot his appearance." Li Huilan said softly, her eyes flashed with strange kindness, she smiled, her face became elongated again, she looked at Yu Zui and asked: "Do you have a son?"
"I'm not married yet." Yu Zui smiled.
"Then you will know when you have it, flesh and blood, what is flesh and blood, it is your backbone, your heart and soul, don't bother with me, I have been suffering for eighteen years, what do you think? , I don't care... You policemen don't care about human kindness, you can't let everyone be as ruthless as you, right? Let the mother, hand over your son, and let you toss..." Li Huilan glared at each other, and slammed the water glass heavily, loudly typical.
Yu Zui and the jury were taken aback, and then they looked at each other, that's right, who is going to judge whom
He suddenly realized that he was still a bit distracted, he only saw how kind the mother was, but he didn't realize how strong she was. I'm afraid that in this matter, she would be much stronger than her appearance.
One trick didn't work, and another trick was changed, Yu Zui's expression became serious, as if he had to say something, he took out the prepared photo, snapped it in front of Li Huilan, and said seriously:
"Aunt Li, you forced me to say that the Provincial Department has already traced your son's traces in the big battle to solve the crime... You see, it was photographed at the train station. Let me tell you, it has been eighteen years, and the legal system has already disappeared. It’s not like killing people like back then. Instead of waiting for the criminal police to bring him back, why don’t you tell him to come back and turn himself in... There is still hope in that way, and you can’t just stay like this and just waste your life? Your second elder, How many years will it take?"
Although there are elements of lies, Yu Zui is indeed very emotional. He stared at Li Huilan motionlessly. He was thinking that the PS photo would definitely hide it from her. After all, he hadn't seen her for more than ten years, and no matter how shrewd she was, she was an old lady in the county town, so she wouldn't be able to see it. strange.
"It's not him." Li Huilan said softly, and put down the photo.
"Impossible?" Yu Zui didn't believe it. If he said no, he must have found something wrong.
"Either it wasn't him, or you made fake ones." The old lady said, looking at Yu Zui, she suddenly said, "You don't have a mother, do you?"
"Ah?" Yu Zui was startled, he likes to speculate on others, but today he was speculated by a suspect, which surprised him.
"Oh, really not." Li Huilan smiled.
"Did you see it? Can you tell me how you saw it?" Yu Zui asked in amazement.
"Just now I saw you drinking water from the faucet, squatting down and licking your mouth when you eat, those are bad habits that no one cares about... Now you put a photo that is not my son in front of his mother for identification. You don't understand common sense, this must be because you have never been a mother before." Li Huilan said, looking at Yu Zui kindly, as if this child deserves more sympathy than her.
Yu Zui's eyes were glazed over, his mouth was half-opened, his expression was stiff, and he didn't come back to his senses for a long time.
There is no need to ask further, I am afraid that my ghostly thoughts cannot escape the eyes of this mother. When he and Li Huilan looked at each other, there was a feeling of fear, just like the one who was stared at by adults when he did something wrong when he was a child. Feeling tense, awkward, and embarrassing…
…
"Wu Xiangqian, let's talk about old things today, and we invite you here again, do you have any objection?"
Yuan Liang asked, getting back to the point, this old man is rather listless, it is said that Li Huilan is in charge of the family.
"You ask." Wu Xiangqian said, Yuan Liang was about to ask, but unexpectedly the old man added softly: "Anyway, I don't know anything."
Yuan Liang smiled, knowing that there is no way for this kind of sluggish person to resist stubbornly, especially at his age, he is much more difficult to deal with than those who rob houses. He asked slowly: "Leave the past aside, let's talk about money."
"What money?" Wu Xiangqian was a little puzzled.
"It's your old income." Yuan Liang said.
Wu Xiangqian was taken aback for a moment, as if this was a new situation, but after holding back for a long time, he gave Yuan Liang a depressed answer: "I'm not in charge of this."
"If you are not in charge, you will know the account. I did the calculations. After the salary adjustment, your old salary is about 3700 yuan, which is considered a high salary in our county. Your wife's job is not low, about 26000 yuan, that is Said, plus the benefits of the original unit, your two elders earn about 80,000 yuan a year, and the store needs 30,000 yuan in rent every year, no matter how low its profit is, the net profit should not be less than 50,000 yuan... This annual income is 13 or 40. Wanna, it's not all the income." Yuan Liang said.
The old man was stunned again, turned his unfriendly eyes, and replied with a stiff neck: "If you have a high income, you also break the law?"
"Not breaking the law." Yuan Liang said, holding a list and brightening it up: "But the whereabouts are unknown, the fixed demand deposits of the two of you, plus the balance of wages, are less than 20,000 yuan, and the store will repay you. The undervalued goods are only 30,000 to 50,000 yuan, and many of them are on credit, we know this very well, you always have a good reputation in the hardware store."
He was stunned again, just when Yuan Liang thought to stop the old man, but unexpectedly the old man said again: "There is a crime of unknown source of property in the law, and a crime of unknown whereabouts is added?"
Wu Xiangqian said it in a tone of asking for advice, and said it very solemnly, ouch, Yuan Liang's stomach hurts hearing that. So he put down the things obtained from the bank and said straight: "We suspect that you secretly funded the murder suspect Wu Xiaolei, who is your son."
"Oh, I doubt it too." The old man was taken aback, and immediately asked back: "But I didn't do it."
"Will the whereabouts of the income be unexplainable?" Yuan Liang asked bluntly.
"I don't have to answer you. If you doubt me, but if you want to answer you, you still doubt me. Aren't you embarrassing me?" Wu Xiangqian confronted Yuan Liang tit for tat with an extremely uncooperative expression.
"Tell the truth, do I need to spend time here?" Yuan Liang said.
"It's you who spent it, not me... Is most of the money with the police? You ask me?" Wu Qianqian said.
"What? Say it again."
"That's the truth. A few years ago, when you checked me, I had to take care of people from the police station; I had to give money to people from the criminal police team; and the leaders of the bureau, whoever was looking for trouble, I couldn't send money... I was imprisoned for half a year, and my wife sued me for half a year, so it doesn’t cost money? Film police, criminal police, prison guards, etc., if you ask them to do things, it doesn’t work just to show your face, you need money... In the past few years, I can earn It would be good to fill up the holes from the previous years. In fact, all the money was spent on this. If you don’t believe me, go check it out... The money must have been spent, but I dare not admit it when you face it... Anyway, I’ll throw it away It's gone." Wu Xiangqian rambled on, giving an impeccable but untraceable reason.
The recorder's face turned green. Judging from the national conditions, it was largely true, but the fact seemed so absurd, which made Yuan Liang feel irrefutable.
Completely defeated, he dropped the record folder heavily and stopped asking.
On the morning of the first day, the first confrontation, the two completely defeated a pair, and at noon, they had to eat and drink to stay with the two of them. After Yu Zui and Yuan Liang met and communicated, they were ready for an exchange operation...
