Why is the stepfather more terrible than stepmother in the reorganized family? On this day in July 2016, the criminal police team received a call from the police station of Woodcut Township, where a skeleton was found on a barren mountain.
The vice squad immediately sent out the police and rushed to the scene of the crime.
The bones have decayed, and under the wind and rain, the bones have a tendency to weather.
The forensic doctor is doing a scene investigation. This is the skeleton of a woman, and the skeleton of a young girl. I don
‘t have to be a medical examiner to confirm the age and sex of the deceased based on the bones at the scene.
In addition, the clothes that have not yet rotted out also prove that this is a girl. The police of the
local police station told me that the deceased should be Zhou Lan, a female student in the third grade of woodcut middle school, who disappeared ten years ago. When
some women remarry, they find a job for themselves, but they also bring a devil to their daughters.
We have an unsolved case that has not been solved for ten years, and the root cause is here. The clothes on the body of the
deceased have been confirmed by Zhou Lan’s parents, that is, the missing Zhou Lan. Ten years have passed since
the disappearance, and I heard about it when I was still in the police Academy. I heard about it
because someone I know was involved in the case.
My junior high school sports teacher, he was transferred to the woodcut middle school as a vice principal, called Li Keyou.
Zhou Lan disappeared because she participated in the spring outing organized by Li Keyou. After
Zhou Lan disappeared, the local police station, as well as the school, organized a large number of people to search the mountain, but Zhou Lan was not found.
Because the spring outing place is close to the river, many people say that Zhou Lan may have been washed away by the river.
But ten years later, there was no report of a woman’s body being found in any place downstream.
This time, Zhou Lan’s body was found by a local old man whose cow was lost. He found the bones when he was looking for the cow on the mountain.
Ten years have passed, and no strong evidence has been extracted from the vicinity where Zhou Lan’s body was found. The
scene investigation wasted a lot of effort, and finally found a long condom on the hillside nearly 200 meters away from Zhou Lan’s body.
Fortunately, condoms belong to rubber products and can be preserved, but we don’t have much hope of finding them in the wilderness.
Today’s young people are very open, in case someone else left it, it is not worthless?
Apart from condoms, nothing of value or relevance could be found nearby. Ten years
apart, even the evidence left by that year is gone.
The bones were brought back to the team by the forensic doctor for an autopsy.
Forensic doctors soon confirmed that the bones were Zhou Lan, who had disappeared ten years ago.
I pulled the case file on this disappearance, and it contains the results of the investigation.
When the police station filed a case for investigation, the final conclusion was that he was missing, and a death certificate was issued more than three years later.
Because of Zhou Lan’s disappearance, the woodcut middle school also paid a sum of money to the Zhou family. Because of this incident, Li Keyou, the
vice principal, lost his position as vice principal of the middle school and went to the local primary school as a physical education teacher. The
forensic autopsy results showed that Zhou Lan should have been starved to death.
She had broken bones in both legs and multiple fractures all over her body.
We came to the conclusion that Zhou Lan was pushed down the hill and broke her legs.
She probably broke her throat at that time, and no one was called to save her.
On Zhou Lan’s remaining clothes, we found a lot of damage caused by crawling.
This proves that she tried to save herself, but failed in the end. The
body may have rolled down the mountain, after the scene of the environment estimates, here should have been a large dense forest, inaccessible.
Also because of this reason, there is one thing that remains intact. The most complete thing on
Zhou Lan’s body is her underwear.
Traces were found on her underwear, and things like semen stains or leucorrhea were extracted.
Time is too long, even if the development of modern technology is very advanced, it will take time to confirm whether it is semen stain or not.
In addition, we also tested the condoms we found because we would rather kill them by mistake than let them go. Before the
results came out, I went to see my former PE teacher, Li Keyou. The case of
Zhou Lan’s disappearance affected his life.
At that time, he had been promoted to vice principal of a middle school. Now, ten years later, in his forties, he is only a primary school physical education teacher, dispensable.
Li Keyou doesn’t know me anymore. He has taught a lot of students. Even after seeing my police card, he can’t remember that I was a student he taught.
He already knew about the discovery of Zhou Lan’s body and the purpose of my visit. Teacher
Li, I want to ask you. You said in the transcript that before Chou Lan disappeared, she said she was going to work, and you advised her.
Li Keyou is old. I remember he was very strong in those days. He was a physical education teacher, but now his figure has changed.
I also heard from other students that she had a boyfriend and was going to work in Zhejiang. I talked to her once, but she didn’t admit it.
Li Keyou remembers this detail very clearly, probably because Zhou Lan influenced his life.
Zhou Lan was already 19 years old when she was in the third year of junior high school, because it was generally late to study in the countryside at that time.
At this time, the little girl, the beginning of love, has the possibility of puppy love.
About this legendary boyfriend, the police station also investigated, but because the information was not as developed as it is now, it is difficult to determine the existence of this person.
Another reason is that Zhou Lan is a child of a reorganized family.
Her real father died young, and her mother took her to marry another man.
The stepfather was very strict with her, and it was said that he beat Zhou Lan at every turn.
For this reason, when investigating Zhou Lan’s disappearance, the police station also checked her stepfather.
Finally, Zhou Lan’s mother testified that they had been working together in the fields that day. After I
said goodbye to Li Keyou, I went to Zhou Lan’s home. After
Zhou Lan’s mother got married, she gave birth to a son to the man named Ma Laosan, who is now in middle school. When
Zhou Lan disappeared, the child was only three or four years old.
Ma Laosan’s family is still a three-storey house, and life is very good. He opened a small shop
downstairs, which could support his family’s life. After
finding Zhou Lan’s bones, the police have been looking for them many times.
I’m a police officer on this case, and this is the first time I’ve met the victim’s parents.
Zhou Lan went to Ma’s home with her mother when she was three years old, and it’s not surprising that they are a family.
Ma Laosan looks very honest, and he is not the kind of person who is cheating.
But it is such a person who often makes people unprepared.
Ma Laosan, let me ask you something. Did you know that Chou Lan had a boyfriend?
Ma Laosan smiled, I don’t know about that. I’m not her real father, and I don’t dare to be too strict.
I looked at him and found sensitively that there was a discrepancy between his answer this time and his confession ten years ago.
He said that he was not strict with Zhou Lan, but ten years ago, someone said that he was very strict with Zhou Lan.
“I heard that you didn’t show mercy when you beat Chou Lan!” Ma Laosan smiled awkwardly and said, “At that time, I liked to drink a few mouthfuls. I couldn’t control myself. I was beaten several times. The police station had educated me about this.”.
When investigating the case of Zhou Lan’s disappearance, the police station had verbally taught him not to beat the child easily.
I also heard that Ma Laosan used to love drinking, but later he quit.
Ma Laosan is really not a suspect, that is, Guan Zhou Lan is a little more severe. After I
asked him some questions, I met Zhou Lan’s mother alone.
I think a mother should be more concerned about her daughter’s personal problems.
This woman, who is already in her forties, also likes to dress up now, not like a pure rural woman.
I asked her if she knew that Zhou Lan had a boyfriend?
The woman’s answer surprised me.
People have been dead for so long, why are you still investigating her?
Is that what a mother should say?
Ten years have passed, and the pain of losing her daughter has long been forgotten by her.
I asked her to answer my question seriously in a very stern tone. I need to record this inquiry.
I don’t know! She won’t tell me anything! The woman refused to answer the question, or did she really not know? When
I left Ma Laosan’s house, I felt sad for Zhou Lan. She had been
dead for ten years, and her biological mother had forgotten her long before she had been wronged.
In this family, she seems to have no sense of existence.
I suspect that if we don’t look into this case, her family won’t come.
I’m a policeman, and whether the family of the deceased cooperates or not, the case will be investigated.
I found Zhou Lan’s classmates, many of whom are now working in the field, but I still met a few. One
of them was Zhou Lan’s deskmate.
This person told me that she had seen Zhou Lan writing a letter in class, and it was a person named Jun at the beginning. He did not tell
this information to the police station investigating Zhou Lan’s disappearance because he was afraid of the police.
There is only one handsome word, and the scope is too large.
I pulled out all the information about the people with handsome names in the woodcut village.
After two days of verification, only two people met the requirements. One
of them is Ma Jun, the nephew of Ma Laosan’s dead wife.
Ma Jun was twenty years old at that time, and he was working in the field.
There is also a social youth, which was finally ruled out by us, because he took drugs and sold drugs three times, and was sentenced to life imprisonment for the last time.
If there is a handsome character in Zhou Lan’s boyfriend’s name, then Ma Jun is the most suspected.
He had the opportunity to come into contact with Zhou Lan. Although Zhou Lan and he were nominally cousins, they were not related by blood.
That would explain why they’re together and no one knows.
If you have doubts, you have to investigate. I soon found a message.
On the second day of Zhou Lan’s spring outing, Ma Jun took the train to Zhejiang to work. Is
this also a coincidence?
Just as I was about to meet Ma Jun, the team’s test results for condoms and underwear came out. The DNA of the residual semen stain was extracted from the
underwear, and the DNA extracted from the condom belongs to the same person.
This illustrates a problem, that is, before Zhou Lan died, she had sex with the same person twice. It’s
also possible that the other party raped her and pushed her off the mountain.
This test result gives us a great confidence to solve this murder case ten years apart.
I found Ma Jun, who is now the boss of a small company.
When he saw my police card, he took a deep breath and asked me if I was here for Zhou Lan.
He said that for ten years, no police have been looking for him.
He told me that he liked Zhou Lan at that time, and he wanted to take her away to work together.
He knew that Ma Laosan was very strict with Zhou Lan and often beat her, so he quarreled with Ma Laosan once. No one knows the
secret of the two of them. If Zhou Lan had not disappeared, they would have left together during that summer vacation.
Ma Jun boldly admitted that his secret relationship with Zhou Lan was somewhat unexpected.
I suspected he was the murderer, but when I asked him to come to the police force to cooperate with the investigation, he did not refuse.
We took his DNA, tested it, and compared it to the DNA from the previous semen stain.
It’s not him! This result has put our case in a difficult position.
The only suspect Ma Jun, Zhou Lan’s invisible boyfriend, has been completely ruled out as a suspect.
I even began to suspect Li Keyou and Zhou Lan’s deskmate. Zhou Lan, who was
nineteen years old at that time, was very comely and beautiful, and everyone in the village recognized her as a little beauty.
If possible, all the boys who took part in the spring outing that day were suspected.
According to the results of that year’s investigation, Zhou Lan said she was missing when she went to look for the toilet.
She is a girl to find the toilet, did not call other students to accompany her, in the wilderness, she is not afraid of it? There was only one
answer, and that was that she knew she was safe.
Maybe she’s going to meet someone important.
At that time, the most important person for Zhou Lan was her secret boyfriend, Ma Jun.
Ma Jun was lying. After I came to this conclusion, I immediately began to investigate the information that Ma Jun left the woodcut village and went to Zhejiang to work.
Although the suspicion of Ma Jun has been cancelled, there must be other reasons for his lying.
Fortunately, I found the staff who sold train tickets to Ma Jun in the post office of Woodcut Township.
Because Ma Jun went out to work more times, she helped to set the tickets, so I remember very clearly. Two days before
Zhou Lan disappeared, Ma Jun booked two train tickets to Zhejiang.
At that time, train tickets did not need a real-name system, as long as there was a ticket.
Investigate this information, I am almost sure that Ma Jun bought another ticket, is prepared for Zhou Lan.
They are not going to leave during the summer vacation, but are going to leave on the day of Zhou Lan’s spring outing.
I invited Ma Jun to the team again, this time, as a suspect to try.
He’s hiding something from us, and he has a motive.
Ma Jun was very calm. I asked him what he was hiding.
He just told me that he was afraid that his wife would know that he almost eloped with Zhou Lan, which was very humiliating. He doesn’t want to remember what happened when he
was young.
The answer is perfect, but I still don’t believe him.
Ma Jun is now a successful person, and he is very familiar with the law. He knows that we only have the right to stay with him for 24 hours, so he stopped talking and threatened to see a lawyer.
Finally, the captain asked me to let him go, and I had to do it.
But I always felt in my heart that Ma Jun had something to hide from us. Did they meet on the day of
Zhou Lan’s disappearance.
Or rather, he saw who the killer was! Because according to my guess, Zhou Lan is going to elope with her, so she must have made an appointment with him.
Ma Jun may go to the place near Zhou Lan’s spring outing to wait for him. Ma Jun is suspected of committing the crime
anyway.
But semen stains can’t be explained! What happened that year?
If Ma Jun doesn’t tell the truth, I’ll send someone to keep an eye on him.
I met Li Keyou again, and I asked him if he knew Ma Jun?
Li Keyou didn’t know Ma Jun, but from him, I noticed another detail.
When he advised Zhou Lan to study hard, Zhou Lan told him that he didn’t want to stay at home. We ignored this detail
before.
Rebellious period of young boys and girls, what will make her do not want to stay at home.
You know, she would rather elope with Ma Jun than live with her own mother. There is
only one reason for this, and that is that this family frightens her.
I think she must have been afraid to stay at home at that time, so she couldn’t wait to leave with Ma Jun.
I did not go to see Zhou Lan’s stepfather and her mother, and the indifferent couple should not say much.
I visited the neighbors in the village where the Ma family lived. In the past ten years, great changes have taken place in the village. Many people have died and traveled far.
I only found a neighbor who was the nearest to Ma’s family.
He told me that after drinking, Ma Laosan not only beat Zhou Lan, but also beat his wife.
The mother and daughter were often beaten to tears, and he once heard Zhou Lan’s mother scold Ma Laosan as a brute, saying that he was not a human being and bullied their orphans and widows.
Combined with Ma Laosan’s beating of them, it sounds like there’s nothing wrong with it.
But I’m a cop, and I have to make a bold guess and then verify it.
Animal, bully, these two words give me a reminder.
We’ve all ignored this before.
Ma Laosan is not Zhou Lan’s biological father, and Zhou Lan is a slim and graceful young girl. Will
Ma Laosan have an evil idea about Zhou Lan? After
the idea was born, there was no way to calm it down in my mind. There are too many cases
of stepfathers bullying their adopted daughters.
I began to shift the focus to Ma Laosan, who became the biggest suspect in my heart.
His seemingly perfect confession and his wife’s alibi, in my opinion, are all loopholes.
I informed the team of the results of the investigation, and after knowing my suspicions, the captain attached great importance to it.
This is a big breakthrough! Just summon Ma Laosan, and the answer will be there soon.
I personally led people to catch Ma Laosan, looking at his wife’s panicked expression, I did not forget to remind her.
“Making a false confession is also a crime!” When Ma Laosan was arrested, I personally interrogated him. When I asked him why he was arrested, he said he didn’t know.
I bluffed him that we had extracted semen stains from Zhou Lan’s underwear, and after DNA comparison, it belonged to him.
Ma Laosan smiled, he said, he and Zhou Lan have no blood relationship, it is normal to have a relationship, you love me.
Ma Laosan also said that he had raised Zhou Lan for more than ten years. When she grew up, what happened to her body.
I have seen a lot of shameless criminals, but Ma Laosan still let my three views be impacted.
In his eyes, he may never have devoted himself to the role of father.
I told him again that we had found a condom in the place where Zhou Lan’s bones were found, and that the DNA extracted from the residual material inside was also his.
I saw Ma Laosan’s nervousness, and his eyes began to twinkle.
Maybe he didn’t expect that after ten years, he could still leave evidence.
He is illiterate and does not know how powerful the technical means of modern criminal investigation are.
We also brought Zhou Lan’s mother to the team, and someone was in charge of interrogating her.
Even if they live a good life, the nature of rural women can not be hidden.
Zhou Lan’s mother was the first to collapse. She confessed that Ma Laosan began to rape Zhou Lan when she was pregnant. At that time, Zhou Lan was only twelve years old. After being discovered by
her, Ma Laosan not only did not restrain himself, but also pushed his luck and raped his daughter in front of her. After she gave birth to a son, Ma Laosan sometimes even beat their mother and daughter and asked them to serve him together.
In order to live, they compromised. In that world, Zhou Lan should be the most painful.
No wonder she was so eager to leave her home! Zhou Lan’s mother finally got used to it. After her daughter grew up, she even felt that one day Zhou Lan would take away her man, so she hated Zhou Lan more and more. On the day of
Zhou Lan’s spring outing, Ma Laosan drank wine and clamored to find Zhou Lan to vent.
He left for two hours and then returned to the field contentedly to continue his work.
She said she knew that Ma Laosan had gone to find his daughter to do that, because Ma Laosan did not like to touch her more and more.
After learning that her daughter was missing, she was not worried, but very happy, and even hoped that she would never come back.
A mother, can be indifferent to such an extent, she still deserves to be a mother?
Ma Laosan knew that his wife had confessed, and he also admitted that on the day of Zhou Lan’s disappearance, he had looked for Zhou Lan at the place where he went for a spring outing.
Unexpectedly, he met Zhou Lan who left alone on the way. He pulled her into the forest and forced her to have sex twice.
He also said that Zhou Lan had prepared a condom by herself, but he had a strong desire that day and did not use it for the second time.
This explains why, in addition to condoms, there are semen stains on underwear.
But Ma Laosan denied that he killed Zhou Lan. He even said that there was a young girl who played with him every day. He was crazy to kill her.
Ma Laosan is very hateful, but what he said is not unreasonable.
He didn’t have to kill Zhou Lan. How many times did he rape Zhou Lan from the age of twelve to nineteen.
As Zhou Lan became more and more beautiful, he was even more reluctant to lose her, perhaps giving birth to the idea of long-term occupation. Is it true that
Zhou Lan was not killed by Ma Laosan?
We have no evidence to prove that Ma Laosan killed Zhou Lan. Ma Laosan only admitted the fact of raping Zhou Lan. The
trial reached a deadlock here, no matter what method was used, Ma Laosan insisted that Zhou Lan was not killed by him.
Until I asked him, “Do you know that Ma Jun and Zhou Lan are in love?”?
They are all ready to elope! Ma Laosan’s eyes showed a vicious look.
His possessive desire for Zhou Lan is too strong.
He cursed Ma Jun for being shameless, but completely ignored the fact that he was even more shameless, that he was a beast.
While cursing, Ma Laosan suddenly exclaimed, “I know. It was Ma Jun, the bastard, who killed Lan Lan.”.
I asked him why he said that! He said he was on his way to find Zhou Lan when he met Ma Jun and wondered why he was here.
Ma Jun said at that time that he was going to buy a ticket and go out to work. At this point in the
trial, it can be said to be a surprise.
Ma Jun, who is no longer suspected of murder, has once again entered our field of vision. Was
I right to suspect him?
He may have witnessed Ma Laosan raping Zhou Lan, which is the secret he has been hiding.
He didn’t say it because Ma Laosan met him on the road. Both of them
created alibis and hid them from each other.
I applied for an arrest warrant, and then asked my colleagues who were monitoring Ma Jun to act immediately and arrest Ma Jun.
This is the third time he entered the vice squad. When I told him that Ma Laosan admitted that he had raped Zhou Lan, I saw the hatred in Ma Jun’s eyes.
He finally told the truth, after Ma Laosan met him, he wanted to pick up Zhou Lan quietly.
However, he saw with his own eyes that Zhou Lan had a relationship with Ma Laosan.
Zhou Lan was very cooperative, which made him very angry. It was a great blow for him to
witness such a picture. After
Ma Laosan left, he went over and asked Zhou Lan why he didn’t resist.
Zhou Lan cried and said that she was used to it, so she wanted to leave the evil home, and she begged Ma Jun to take her away.
Ma Jun thought that Zhou Lan did not like him, but regarded him as a tool to take her away.
Two people had an argument, Ma Jun pushed Zhou Lan, and then she rolled down the hill.
At that time, Ma Jun did not think that Zhou Lan would die. He thought she would climb up.
He left angrily until the news came that Zhou Lan was missing.
He was afraid to go to the scene and hurried to Zhejiang the next day.
He said that he accidentally pushed Zhou Lan, as for this point has no way to verify.
In this case, the most incredible thing is Zhou Lan’s mother, who endured her own daughter being bullied by her own man for four years, and even became jealous.
As a policeman, I abhor Ma Laosan’s practice of being inferior to animals, but in real life, he is not the only one who causes psychopathy in culture and living environment. Those who
commit crimes are hateful, but what about those who connive at them? Are
they really innocent?
Perhaps we must all understand a truth, a person, only learn to care and protect themselves, in order to protect others.
