Free Web NovelChapter 464: Chapter 345: Hunter!
These three bowls of rice, for some reason, crushed Liang Yu’s spirit and caused her inner emotions to collapse.
She first stared blankly at the rice bowls. When she came back to her senses, salty tears had already rolled out. She didn’t know what she was crying for, but the negative emotions swept over her like a flood.
At this moment, Liang Yu realized that her husband was dead, dead in an accident, causing no ripple at all.
Since then.
Liang Yu placed her spiritual solace in her son.
Liang Yu used the compensation money to support her son’s education, while she took on multiple jobs to numb the emptiness of her spirit with physical exhaustion.
She wanted the other children to look at her son with envy and admiration, rather than ridicule him for not having a father!
She wanted her son to become a phoenix among men!
She wanted her son not to repeat the same mistakes in the future!
...
Her son was dead.
He died on a desolate mountain.
That was the summer camp she used compensation money and hard-earned cash to send her son to, somewhere he always wanted to go...
But three days later, the person in charge notified her that...
A bullet struck the heart from behind.
Beyond saving, dead on the spot, breathless, the tiny body fell to the ground, unaware of what happened before dying.
Just died like that...
"How could this happen...how could there be a gun...how could there be a gun...why...."
2005.
August 23rd.
At five thirty in the afternoon, Liang Yu was delirious, muttering incessantly, with Liu Jin, a policeman, standing before her.
At this moment, Liu Jin was guiding Liang Yu to the interrogation room.
"Why was there a gun...why would there be a gun in a summer camp....this is wrong, this is wrong...."
Liang Yu murmured as if in a dream, her gaze wild, her tone filled with extremity.
Liu Jin seemed not to hear anything, continuing to guide her.
When he reached the interrogation room at that moment....
Liu Jin stopped, looked back at Liang Yu, hesitated for a moment, finally took a deep breath, and placed his hand on the door handle.
"Squeak~"
The door opened.
The piercing sound seemed to snap Liang Yu back to reality. She looked up in a daze and saw that there were a few people sitting in the interrogation room.
Sitting on the chair were Xu Liang and a middle-aged man with coarse skin, shabby appearance, and muddy eyes.
This man was... Lv Xiong!
He was separated from Xu Liang by a pane of glass.
The moment Liang Yu saw Lv Xiong, her muscles instantly tightened, followed by....
"Bang!!!"
The next second, Liang Yu’s hands were instantly pressed against the glass, as if she wanted to strangle Lv Xiong through it!
That expressionless face, stiff eyes, stared deadly at Lv Xiong.
The nails dug into the glass, making a shrill ’creak’.
Lv Xiong inside heard the commotion, lifted his head, instinctively glanced at Liang Yu.
Those emotionless eyes were like a walking corpse, scaring Lv Xiong’s insides into a shiver, causing him to immediately lower his head.
"Ms. Liang, though it may seem wrong to say, please try to control your emotions."
Xu Liang took a deep breath and spoke slowly.
Seeing them for a moment, he finally understood just how extreme Chen Changchun’s description of mental extremity really was...
Goodness.
A bit more extreme... it’s estimated to be antisocial personality disorder.
"I’m Xu Liang, a lawyer from the Conscience Law Firm, mainly here today to discuss the progress of your subsequent case."
Xu Liang said again.
Liang Yu seemed not to hear, just fixed her eyes on Lv Xiong, her eyes like blades, slicing across Lv Xiong’s body.
Seeing this, Xu Liang took a deep breath and didn’t try to dissuade her.
Although she had mental issues, she wasn’t completely gone. She could understand human language, and with the glass in between... even with extreme emotions, it was okay.
Xu Liang’s gaze focused.
’Seven-Aperture Exquisite Heart!’
The skill immediately activated, and Xu Liang watched Lv Xiong’s every minute reaction from behind the glass!
Lv Xiong, forty-eight this year, lived in Sanma Village, having no family or children, considered a bachelor.
His look was not pleasant, skin coarse and keratinized, eyes muddy, hair dry and sparse, roughly six feet tall, features looking like an honest old man.
His body erupted in red rashes, numerous mottled red spots appeared on the surface.
Even his clothes... if the police hadn’t given him a change of uniform, most likely would’ve been a heap of ragged clothes.
Facing Liang Yu’s gaze, Lv Xiong lowered his head, falling into a trance.
"Mr. Lv, Mr. Lv?"
Xu Liang suddenly spoke up.
Lv Xiong, inside the glass, appeared momentarily confused, then looked up at Xu Liang and shrank back slightly.
"I am a lawyer, and from now on, I will be communicating with you."
Xu Liang said slowly.
Lv Xiong’s mental state was not good, the other party was dazed and would frequently fall into a trance.
Hearing this, Lv Xiong remained silent for a long time, then suddenly made a small sound.
"Mm."
Xu Liang’s luck was quite good.
As of now, Lv Xiong still retained some semblance of sanity and could barely communicate.
"I want to ask, how did you get your gun?" Xu Liang opened with a question.
"Bought it."
Lv Xiong was taciturn, his handcuffed hands unconsciously scratched his belly.
Then.
Xu Liang paused, glanced at Liang Yu beside him, and continued:
"I have reviewed the victim’s report."
"You have great marksmanship... what happened? And why didn’t you turn in your gun?"
The opponent was able to shoot a person in the heart from behind with one shot... that marksmanship is excellent. If it’s not luck... then he’s a sharpshooter!
But clearly, Lv Xiong’s family circumstances couldn’t afford to train a sharpshooter with a large amount of bullets.
"I was in the military twenty years ago."
Lv Xiong was dazed, he answered whatever Xu Liang asked.
In the military?
Xu Liang showed surprise on his face, then he understood.
Most of the old hunters from early on had been in the military and retired from the army.
As for turning in the gun...
"I didn’t know I had to turn it in." Lv Xiong quietly uttered a few words, then scratched his body again.
He lived in Sanma Village, a secluded and lawless area.
Lv Xiong had been hunting with a gun for decades and really didn’t know that there was a gun ban and that guns had to be turned in!
Xu Liang’s eyes suddenly sharpened, and he shifted the topic, asking:
"Is your body very itchy!?"
Very itchy?
Including Liu Jin, everyone instinctively looked at Lv Xiong’s scratching hand, even Lv Xiong was slightly startled.
A moment later, Lv Xiong withdrew his hand, stopped scratching, made a thick sound in his throat, and said:
"Old problem."
His skin had felt itchy from time to time for a long time.
Perhaps it was due to hygiene issues.
Xu Liang looked at the rash on his skin and his obviously poor living environment hygiene, then nodded, not spending more time on this issue.
He turned to speak again: "The victim, Yang Bo..."
Xu Liang’s gaze suddenly turned sharp, he crossed his hands, leaned forward, posing a psychologically oppressive stance.
"Did you kill him!?"
As soon as the words fell.
Liang Yu’s pupils suddenly contracted, like a pinhole, staring at Lv Xiong without blinking!
And Lv Xiong’s response was....
"I... I don’t know."
Lv Xiong’s muddy eyes showed a trace of confusion, he seemed not fully awake, as if still immersed in a dream, unable to open his eyes, unable to wake up.
Don’t know?
As soon as those words fell.
Liang Yu’s expression became twisted, her chest heaving violently, her nails digging into the glass.
Even Yang Ruoxi and Su Yu beside her were slightly taken aback.
Killing someone is killing, not killing is not killing.
How could he not know if he killed someone!?
Behind them, Liu Jin was expressionless, he knew that would be the answer.
During the police interrogation, Lv Xiong’s response was the same, he didn’t know if he had killed, while objective evidence pointed directly at him!
"Do you mean that after you shot, you were not sure if you killed on the spot?"
Xu Liang frowned, considering a possibility.
"No... no."
Lv Xiong dazedly said:
"That day, I went hunting up the mountain, saw a young wild boar, the piglet ran fast, I chased with my gun...."
"Chased to a place, I shot at the pig, after the shot, I seemed to see it wasn’t a piglet, but a person, when I looked again, it was a pig again, but in a blink it was a person... I got scared and went home..."
