Sparrow Mountain in Wanfang Town, Nancheng County, Jiangxi Province, is the most important local grave mountain, which is specially used to concentrate on the burial of the deceased.
Except for Qingming, Spring Festival and death day, few people come here on weekdays. One morning in the summer of 1989, a few cattle herders went to Sparrow Mountain to herd cattle. Suddenly, they noticed a pile of colorful papers in the grass, which caught their eye.
Curiosity drove several people forward, and they were shocked by the scene before them: it was a pile of real yuan, as much as 800 yuan. You must know that in that era, the monthly salary of a grassroots police officer was only about 40 yuan.
The news spread quickly, and rumors of a treasure in Sparrow Mountain spread. People flocked to the area, and villagers from all over the world flocked to hunt for treasure, almost turning the entire mountain upside down.
However, there is one family surnamed Li that stands out from the rest. Instead of turning over the grass and carrying rocks like the others, they circled around the cowherd who had picked up the money.
When they saw a patch of freshly turned soil, the Li family began to scramble to dig it up, as if they were professional tomb robbers, much to everyone's surprise.
Who would have thought that as the earth was slowly excavated, the body of a man would be revealed. Then, crying rang out, and a mother was overwhelmed with grief and said, "My son, why did you go so wrong?" ”
Who is this deceased really? What does he have to do with the mystical riches of Sparrow Mountain? Why did the Li family know that his body was buried here? The answer was revealed, it turned out that the deceased who was killed in this grave mountain turned out to be the suspect in the ** case, he was from Wanfang Town, Nancheng County, which is a remote place with simple folk customs.
The villagers work at sunrise and rest at sunset, and their lives are uneventful and quiet and peaceful. It can be said that the discovery of huge sums of money and corpses in the inaccessible grave mountain is an unexpected event.
Now, ten miles and eight villages have exploded, and people everywhere are panicking.
The Li family immediately reported the case to the Nancheng County Public Security Bureau and introduced Li Tianhua, an unmarried bachelor who had been missing for a month. This case of missing persons and murder and burial of corpses has left experienced veteran criminal policemen scratching their heads.
They questioned why it took a month to report the disappearance, and how the Li family knew that Li Tianhua had been killed and buried in Sparrow Hill. Faced with these problems, the Li family's faces turned red, their eyes flashed, and finally revealed an amazing secret.
According to the Li family's recollection, one night about a month ago, Li Tianhua suddenly closed the doors and windows and sneakily said that he and two people from the same village had robbed a large truck containing nearly 20,000 yuan.
The next day, before they could ask for details, Li Tianhua disappeared. At first, the Li family speculated that he might run away from the limelight, but after thinking about it, he even took the initiative to confess that he had even murdered for money, and he should not leave without a sound and without any luggage.
The more he thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong, and the Li family began to have a premonition that he might be in trouble, so they were worried and had trouble sleeping.
Because of their closed-mindedness and tradition, they are unwilling to "kill their relatives with righteousness", but are worried that the East Window Incident will send Li Tianhua to prison, so they have never dared to call the police.
It wasn't until they heard that a large sum of money had appeared in nearby Sparrow Hill that they immediately thought that it might be stolen money, so they decided to try their luck. As a result, they found Li Tianhua's body.
Hearing this, the faces of the police officers present changed greatly, isn't this the ** case that has plagued them for a long time! On June 26, 1989, Yang Jinwen of Leixi Town, Guixi City, got up early to prepare for his eldest son and brother-in-law.
Before that, Yang Jinwen took out a loan to buy a large truck, and took the two young and strong young men in his family to run transportation together to make money.
Recently, a pig boss in the village booked a car of live pigs to be shipped to Guangdong. Due to Yang Jinwen's physical discomfort, he arranged for his eldest son and brother-in-law to partner to complete this task, and the owner of the pig farm also escorted the car with him.
According to their plan, the trip is expected to end on the 26th. Considering the possible hardships along the way, Yang Jinwen planned to set up a table of food on the 23rd to comfort them.
However, what awaited him was bad news - a car accident. When Yang Jinwen heard the news and hurriedly followed the villagers to the police station, he saw that the truck had overturned and fell into an overgrown ravine, and the vehicle was seriously damaged.
Today, 29 years later, Yang Jinwen still vividly remembers that gruesome scene: "The police said it was a high explosive, the roof of the car was blown to pieces, and the cab door was blown off. ”
The cause of the accident was not the usual drunk driving, wrong-way driving, brake failure or accidental crash, but explosives**. In this disaster, Yang Jinwen's eldest son, brother-in-law and the owner of the pig farm were all killed, and their bodies were blown up to a blur of flesh and blood, and the scene was extremely terrifying.
This small village, which has always been peaceful, suddenly had such a bad nature, and the local ** attached great importance to it, and immediately mobilized elite police forces to form a special team to investigate.
After careful investigation, ** preliminarily determined that the case was murdered for money.
According to relevant statistics, the pig market on this truck is about 20,000 yuan, which is equivalent to the salary of a police officer for more than 40 years. There are some fragments of banknotes scattered at the accident site, and if you put them together, it is obviously quite different from the amount of 20,000 yuan.
In other words, except for a small number of banknotes torn apart by the ** shock wave, this pig sale money has disappeared. In general, according to various clues, it is inferred that there may be criminals who saw this huge amount of money, so they became greedy and carefully planned this case.
However, the place where the tragedy occurred was a small road where there were neither villages nor shops, ** went door to door, and still no eyewitness was found. At that time, surveillance probes, vehicle cameras and other equipment did not exist.
After a month of investigation, ** failed to find a breakthrough point, and even found no clues to the case. Just when the case was at an impasse, there was internal strife among the criminals, which led to the eventual arrest of **.
The Li family couldn't wait to identify ** when they hadn't sorted out the case yet.
The night before Lai's disappearance, he was in a very low mood and showed more anger than the panic and chaos that followed the killing. He complained that two of his accomplices were in cahoots and targeted at him and could be murdered at any moment.
As a result, as he prophesied, he died in the grave hill for no apparent reason. If it wasn't an accomplice, who else would it be? Their motive for killing may have been to rob wealth, but due to unequal distribution, they had internal conflicts and ended up killing each other.
This is very likely. Therefore, ** immediately took action and prepared to arrest the other two suspects in the ** case - Jin Guoqiang, a villager from Nantong Village, and his brother-in-law Wu Yingshou.
No matter how deep the silver is hidden, it will eventually be discovered. "When ** arrived at the homes of the two suspects, he found that they had already fled. This further confirms the speculation that Jin Guoqiang and Wu Yingshou absconded in fear of crime.
Although we already know their names and faces, it is not easy to apprehend them. Because in those days, there was no need to register with real names to buy bus tickets and stay in hotels, and it was as difficult to find people who were deliberately hiding across the country as if they were looking for a needle in a haystack.
If in some countries, the case may be crushed to the bottom of the box, gradually forgotten over time. But in China,"Be loyal to the people and serve the people"It is the credo of the police.
In order to give justice to the three innocent villagers who died in vain and the suspects who should be tried by the law, ** has never stopped the pursuit of Jin Guoqiang and Wu Yingshou. 29 years have passed, and Officer Lu of the Criminal Investigation Brigade of the Nancheng County Public Security Bureau has changed from a young police officer to a calm deputy captain.
He is still concerned about the case and firmly stated:"We go to arrest them every holiday, every year, or we go to a big manhunt. "
After hard work, with the advent of the information age, the online pursuit technology has been perfected, and the pursuit of fugitives in Nancheng has finally seen the light of day. In 2018, when ** entered Jin Guoqiang's relevant information into the national information database again for comparison, a man named Yu Zhaoyan attracted their strong attention.
Although the years have left marks on his face, Yu Zhaoyan's facial features are almost exactly the same as those of his friend Jin Guoqiang. In the early years, he had a criminal record for driving without a license and using a fake ID card.
During the investigation, the identity of the people from Leping, Jiangxi Province, which he provided, was confirmed to be fictitious. This shows that there must be an ulterior secret behind his hidden identity. **The investigation found that his son's name was Yu Fucheng, and Jin Guoqiang's hometown was Nancheng County, Fuzhou City, Jiangxi Province.
Fuzhou Nancheng - Fucheng - This cannot simply be reduced to coincidence. The only reasonable explanation is that Yu Zhaoyan may be Jin Guoqiang, who changed his name and surname and absconded for 29 years.
* The subsequent arrest and Jin Guoqiang also confessed to his crimes. The truth was revealed, and although justice arrived late, it finally came. It turned out that Jin Guoqiang and Li Tianhua met at the gaming table.
They "smell like" and quickly become acquainted.
Nine out of ten bets will lose, and you will lose if you gamble for a long time". After spending a long time at the table, your wallet will inevitably dry up. So one day in 1989, Li Tianhua found Jin Guoqiang and proposed to do a big business together.
He's even found a target. Because he used to be in the business of selling pigs, he knew that for safety, the owner would usually follow him to sell the pigs and then return with a large amount of cash.
Therefore, the best time to commit the crime is on the way back. But it was too difficult for one person to move, so he decided to get someone to help.
Jin Guoqiang has good family conditions and the first tractor in the village, but due to family responsibilities, he needs to solve the family's financial problems. Li Tianhua's proposal just solved his urgent need, and he readily agreed.
In order to prevent the victim from resisting or revealing his identity, Kim Guoqiang came up with a brutal plan to blow up the vehicle. On June 26, 1989, he, Li Tianhua and Wu Yingshou waited for the target to appear on the way back to the village, then detonated the illegally obtained explosives, and after confirming that the vehicle was destroyed, they quickly collected cash and fled.
Faced with an alluring huge amount of cash, the wicked show their greedy faces. Jin Guoqiang thought that he deserved the lion's share, and Li Tianhua was furious about this, insisting on the principle of splitting the account between the two of them, and never allowed his interests to be damaged.
However, this insistence attracted Jin Guoqiang's threat, saying that if Li Tianhua gave him less money, he would report the matter, and no one would be spared. Jin Guoqiang was originally an ordinary office worker, but greed made him commit unforgivable crimes and opened Pandora's box.
Driven by his distorted psychology and fear of Li Tianhua, Jin Guoqiang wielded a butcher's knife as if he had gone crazy. By the time he realized his actions, Li Tianhua had already collapsed in a pool of blood and left forever.
All kinds of emotions came like waves, panic, fear, regret, helplessness, and one of the strong thoughts took over his heart - no matter what, he could not be caught.
So, on a dark and windy night, he and Wu Yingshou hurriedly buried Li Tianhua's body in Sparrow Mountain.
They thought that burying the corpse on the grave hill would be like a bird flying in the sky and a fish swimming in the water, and that it would never be discovered. However, in their panic, they accidentally left 800 yuan of stolen money near the burial place, which helped ** solve the case quickly.
In total, four lives at once, once revealed, they will face the death penalty. Driven by fear, Jin Guoqiang and Wu Yingshou divided the money equally and each embarked on the road of escape.
It is worth mentioning that after Jin Guoqiang fled to Changsha, Hunan, he actually came up with a ruthless move. Pretending to be a hospital worker, he sent several urgent telegrams home saying that he had been in a serious car accident and had suffered serious head injuries and had unfortunately passed away.
At first glance, this fraud seems unassailable. However, the police handling the case were keenly aware of the flaw: if Jin Guoqiang really died in a car accident, why didn't the hospital leave an accurate address and notify the people of the Jin family to collect the body?
Decently, the police immediately went to Changsha and conducted a detailed investigation of all the hospitals, but could not find any records of Jin Guoqiang. Therefore, ** exposed Jin Guoqiang's plan to fake death to escape, and continued to pursue him until he was successfully arrested 29 years later.
Knowing that the real murderer was caught, Yang Jinwen, who was 71 years old, couldn't cry. For so many years, he has not been able to recover from the loss of his loved ones, as have the families of the other two victims of the ** case.
The days of the past fell like dust, and they finally breathed a sigh of relief. At the Leixi Police Station, after listening to the report, the old people burst into tears one by one, holding the thanks of the Nancheng County Public Security Bureau, and sighed: "After so many years of cases, it is really not easy to persist in solving the case." ”
And Jin Guoqiang regretted what he had done in the past, he described himself as like a rat in a stinky ditch for the past 29 years, who could only shiver in the dark, escape from the light, and even lose his dignity as a human being.
He had gone through two failed marriages, raised children alone, and was full of resentment towards him, never visiting him once. Of course, Jin Guoqiang's evil deeds are irreparable, he took 4 lives and destroyed 4 families.
Hopefully, whenever and wherever we are, we can use reason to restrain our desires instead of becoming slaves to them.
