: Section 21 Crime and Punishment

Seeing everyone getting busy again, Li Yuanhong took the pikemen and began to move the roadblocks away. After what happened just now, he had been delayed for nearly an hour and a half in this small village. Now it’s getting dark early, and the day after six o’clock. When it darkened, Li Yuanhong really didn't want to spend the night in these mud houses.
The idea is good, the reality is cruel. Just after Li Yuanhong removed the first road barrier, he saw Er Ya hurried over and ran directly to the armored car where Dr. Han was. Seeing the nervous expression, it might be something else. So Li Yuanhong followed suit.
When I came to the door of the armored car, I heard Erya shout to Han Yuyao anxiously: "Doctor Han, you should follow me to see, there are several people who were seriously injured, I'm afraid they will die soon!" Crying.
Upon hearing this, Han Yuyao quickly grabbed the medicine box hung on the side of the car wall, and rushed to the village with Er Ya, asking about the specific situation while walking.
Li Yuanhong wanted to follow along, but there were many women involved here. A big man couldn’t get in and could only give up. He went back to the highway and continued to clear the roadblocks. When the sun went west, Dr. Han had not come out yet. It seems to be forced to live here today.
The night breeze here is already very cold, and most people hide in their houses to keep warm. Although they are adobe houses, there are fire kangs in each house, and each house has firewood for burning, so Li Yuanhong makes people burn hard. , The selected houses were burnt warmly. Although it was not possible to leave, the work had to continue. Taking advantage of dinner time, Li Yuanhong asked about the results of their respective handling of things today.
Er Ya was the first to speak first. Erya's face was still angered, and she first described the atrocities of the evil guys: blocking roads, carjacking, killing people, looting supplies, women, abusing women, etc. Anyway, Li Yuanhong could guess all the evil deeds that the gang did. . After listening to Erya’s angry statement, Li Yuanhong thought about it for a while, and then calmly said to Erya: "Your statements are very irritating, but this is not the emotion you should have. I ask you to help them. About their situation, you only paid attention to how they were victimized, but did not check their identities, why they came here, and who persecuted them? Did all the arrested people participate, or just a few people? Participate. Also, you have to ask about the identity of those who have been arrested. This will give us the next step and cause trouble."
"Are those people very polite! So... I just..." Er Ya didn't know how to continue.
"It doesn't matter, it's the first time you have dealt with such a thing. You must pay attention in the future. No matter what you encounter, don't let your emotions be influenced by others, otherwise it may cause immeasurable losses." Li Yuanhong comforted Erya. Then Li Yuanhong turned his attention to Wang Jingrong.
"Ahem..." Wang Jingrong cleared his throat first and said, "There are twelve people who were arrested. Ten of them were with Zhang Facai at the entrance of the village. Zhang Facai is the guy whose neck was wiped by you. The other two They were guarding the women in the village, and they were caught in a sneak attack by me. Now these people are being held in the yard next door, and I let Zhao Rui lead people to guard them in shifts. These people are divided into two groups. There are four villagers in this village, and the others are Zhang Facai's friends, friends, and friends. Before the end of the world, they went to some grassland pasture in Mongolia to steal things, but when they came back overnight, they met the end of the world and occupied the village together. ."
"It seems that sometimes bad people are not necessarily bad for life!" Li Yuanhong said with a sigh.
Next, Dr. Han talked about the conditions of those women. Eight people were rescued. Most of them had simple skin injuries. The three more severe women were seriously injured. They may not be able to get out of bed in the short term, but they have been rescued. No life is in danger. However, the trauma is not the most serious. The real injury is the trauma in the heart. If they can't get out of the shadows, I am afraid that people will be abandoned. Having said this, Han Yuyao's expression also looked dim.
Li Yuanhong considered it for a moment, and then resolutely said: "Here they are getting a new medicine, these people have been hurt, and justice must be available to help them out of the shadows. Tomorrow, we will let these victims come and judge those who have hurt them. people!"
The night wind is bitter and cold, so many lives are submerged in the darkness of the last days, but the light will eventually return. The next morning, Li Yuanhong led everyone back on the road. The difference from yesterday is that a row of big men by five flowers stood at the entrance of the village. After a night of starvation and freezing, these people no longer had the ferocity of yesterday, and they all bowed their heads, waiting for the trial of fate. The women who had been hurt by them all sat on the soft bed and were carried across from these people. Today they will judge the people who hurt them.
Li Yuanhong came to the road with the gunmen, and then began to speak loudly to everyone present: "Today, we will have a trial here. Some people may ask, "The end of the world is over, the law is gone, and we still What are you doing in that form!" Li Yuanhong paused, swept his eyes around, and then said: "This is not form, but our insistence on the bottom line of mankind. Is the end time terrible? Those zombies, no matter how many killed Every time I face them again, I will feel flustered, but I believe that one day, we will kill them. But if we humans lose our humanity, then what is the difference between ourselves and the walking corpse. If We humans have really lost the bottom line, and that is the true end of the world. Today's trial, we will give the sinner a dignity, and we will give the innocent a warning. The end of the world does not mean the loss of conscience. Okay, I will stop here. Then, Officer Wang will come to the trial." After speaking, Li Yuanhong stepped aside.
Next, Wang Jingrong walked up. Wang Jingrong changed into a police uniform this time and walked solemnly to the middle of the crowd, then raised his right hand and placed it in the heart position and began to say: "Today, I, Wang Jing Rong, swear by heart, we will take justice as righteousness, impartiality, do not condone evil, nor suppress kindness, any grievances will be cleansed, and any sins will be punished. Swear by heart!
After speaking, Wang Jingrongshen Deeply bowed to everyone.
The form was over, but the people present were not bored, but the atmosphere became more solemn, and the next trial would be more hot. Those women who were hurt, counted the crimes of the big guys on the opposite side, each of the crimes of murder. All the rapes were told in tears. Several women were crying and fainted, and they were rescued by Doctor Han who was standing by. Li Yuanhong and others did not interrupt the women’s statements. Li Yuanhong communicated with Doctor Han in advance However, these women must vent their emotions, otherwise they will not be able to get out of the shadows, and it will be even more painful for them, so Dr. Han can only stand by and pay attention to them silently.
Most of the big guys on the opposite side were said to lower their heads and raise their heads shamelessly, but a few of them were in a posture of nothing to do with them, with their eyes squinting upwards and their mouths poking, as if they were constantly mumbling. When these women had finished speaking, Wang Jingrong turned his head to these people and asked, "Do you have any defense?"
"We admit that most of what they say is true." said one of the older brawny men. The brawny man had no regrets since just now: "But we are forced to do this. If we don't If we do, Boss Zhang will kill us. He had killed several people who opposed him before, so we are really not guilty!"
As soon as the man finished speaking, the people behind him also echoed: "Yes, yes, we are all forced, not our voluntary."
At this time, Wang Jingrong said with a gloomy expression: "Can you be frantic if you are forced? With so many of you, you can't beat Zhang Facai alone?"
"We were really forced. He has a gun in his hand, and we can't help it!" said the strong man with a pitiful look. Others followed suit and pretended to be pitiful.
"I said before that sins will be punished here, no matter what reason you have to defend your sins, but your sins must be judged. As you said just now, you confessed the evil deeds said by the women opposite you. , This is enough. Now I pronounce the sentence that the offender on the other side has admitted to the crime, for the sake of keeping the good way, sentenced to death and executed immediately!"
As soon as the sentence was pronounced, just pretending to be the poor brawny man, he immediately panicked and shouted: "You can't do this, we can kill zombies, we are still useful, you can't do this!"
Others only know how to cry, and keep muttering in their mouths: "Forgive me, forgive me!"
Others showed a fierce nature, full of swear words, and constant curses.
Li Yuanhong was really annoyed by listening, so he ordered the spearmen to plug these people's mouths, and then twelve shots were fired, ending the criminal lives of these people.
Prior to this, Wang Jingrong asked Li Yuanhong why he had to execute a shooting. Is it enough to cut with a knife or pierce with a gun? Li Yuanhong replied: "With a gun, you can use the sound of gunfire to act as a deterrent and warning. At the same time, it also allows the sound of gunfire to comfort the souls who have died unjustly."
