Chapter 313: Retracting the Confession Again

At noon that day, Chen Yan rushed to the market.

"Team Leader Chen, long time no see!"

Chen Yan was greeted by an old friend, Ren Hongfeng, the captain of Panshi Detective Team.

"Captain Ren, the last time we met was at the Provincial Detective Brigade meeting on New Year's Day. It's been half a year in the blink of an eye."

Ha ha.

"It's just that time flies so fast."

After welcoming Chen Yan into the office building, Ren Hongfeng took Chen Yan to his office first.

"This time, I'm going to trouble you again."

After pouring tea for Chen Yan, Ren Hongfeng handed over another cigarette: "Want one?"

"Okay, have one!"

Taking the cigarette, Ren Hongfeng stepped forward and lit it: "Chu Liang said you would handle this case, so I feel relieved."

Speaking of the case, Chen Yan's expression became slightly serious: "This case is a bit unreasonable."

Ren Hongfeng nodded: "It is indeed unreasonable. Because of the video, we have launched a background investigation on the deceased Qin Liansheng and the murderer Cui Xiaobing."

Picked up a stack of information from the desk and handed it to Chen Yan: "These two people have relatively simple backgrounds."

"My hometown is in a rural area below Panshi. Five years ago, Cui Xiaobing came back from Shenshi and followed Qin Liansheng on a takeaway business."

Ren Hongfeng himself is an experienced detective. When the case took such a turn, Ren Hongfeng immediately conducted a detailed investigation into the backgrounds of the two men.

However, the results were less than ideal.

In terms of family, Qin Liansheng's wife has been working in the countryside and has a son who graduated from college three years ago and works in Liancheng.

Because Qin Liansheng has been doing food delivery for a long time, everyone at the site is familiar with him.

"Judging from the interviews and investigations, Qin Liansheng has a good temper, is a kind-hearted person, and has no enemies."

"As for Cui Xiaobing, his parents are farming in the countryside. After graduating from technical secondary school, he lived in Liancheng and Shenshi, but he never found any serious job."

"I worked as a security guard and ran a food delivery business. Later, after I came to the market, I worked as a food delivery company with Qin Liansheng. I worked there for five years."

After reading the background information carefully, Chen Yan frowned slightly.

They are just two ordinary people with no special experiences or special backgrounds.

"Team Ren, does Qin Liansheng have any record of purchasing insurance?"

There are many such things like murder and fraud.

"I checked," Ren Hongfeng nodded: "I realized something was wrong after Cui Xiaobing recanted his confession."

"Specialized personnel were sent to check Qin Liansheng's insurance purchase records."

Ren Hongfeng took out another report from the table: "Six months ago, Qin Liansheng bought a personal accident insurance."

"The premium amount is one million, which means that if Qin Liansheng dies unexpectedly, the insurance company will pay his family one million."

Of course Ren Hongfeng knew what Chen Yan meant.

Qin Liansheng bought insurance, and then Cui Xiaobing killed him and got one million in insurance.

But the problem is that the beneficiary of Qin Liansheng's insurance is his son, not Cui Xiaobing.

Cui Xiaobing is also responsible for the murder.

If Cui Xiaobing wasn't stupid, he definitely wouldn't have cheated on insurance companies.

If you kill yourself and get the death penalty, and the money goes to others, what about fun?

"However, the current situation is that it is impossible for the insurance company to pay Qin Liansheng."

Chen Yan nodded.

Accidental death must be unintentional, sudden in nature, not caused by disease, and be caused by external factors.

But judging from the video Cui Xiaobing showed, Qin Liansheng's death was not sudden, but his own will.

In this case, the insurance compensation requirements are not met.

"Let me go meet this Cui Xiaobing first."

"Okay, he is in custody in our team now, follow me."

trial room.

Chen Yan met Cui Xiaobing.

A very ordinary person, not tall and thin, but with bright eyes and long and thin eyebrows.

Cui Xiaobing is in good spirits.

Chen Yan has seen many murderers.

A murderer after being caught committing a crime.

Everyone has a different expression and mental state.

And Cui Xiaobing should be one of the best mentally among the murderers Chen Yan has ever seen.

His face is healthy, his eyes are clear, and his expression is calm.

"Cui Xiaobing, my name is Chen Yan, the leader of the serious crime team of the Liao Provincial Detective Brigade. Your case will be handled by me."

Cui Xiaobing nodded: "Good morning, Officer Chen."

"Want to smoke?" Chen Yan handed Cui Xiaobing a lit cigarette: "You don't seem to be afraid at all of the criminal law you will bear next."

"Thanks."

Cui Xiaobing took the cigarette and took a deep breath. Instead, he looked at Chen Yan with some confusion: "Why should I be afraid?"

"Why not fear?"

"My cousin wanted to die, but he couldn't kill himself, so he asked me to kill him."

"I didn't mean to kill anyone, so I don't need the death penalty."

"The video I provided you is absolutely authentic. It was recorded on my mobile phone."

Chen Yan nodded.

He has already watched the video.

Although the picture quality is average, it has been authenticated by the Liao Provincial Detective Brigade Technical Center. There is no editing and it is a real video.

However, the question is why didn't Cui Xiaobing take it out earlier?

Of course, even with this video, there is still one thing that cannot be explained.

That's why Cui Xiaobing called the police before killing Qin Liansheng.

"Cui Xiaobing, can you tell me why you called the police before killing Qin Liansheng?"

After smoking half a cigarette, Cui Xiaobing raised his head: "My cousin bought a personal accident insurance."

"The premium is one million."

Chen Yan nodded. He knew about this matter. Ren Hongfeng had already grasped the situation.

"Did you and Qin Liansheng want to defraud insurance at the beginning?"

"Yes," Cui Xiaobing nodded: "That's what we planned from the beginning."

It turned out that Qin Liansheng's son had kidney failure and it was already very serious.

The condition was only diagnosed half a year ago and needed a kidney transplant to be cured.

It was at that time that Qin Liansheng bought the insurance.

Two days before the incident, the hospital received news that the donated kidney had been matched.

But the surgery cost 300,000 yuan, and the cost of postoperative recovery was at least 200,000 yuan.

"A total of 500,000 yuan, my cousin's family can't come up with that much money even if they sell everything they have."

"So, five days ago, my cousin asked me to kill him and pretend it was manslaughter."

"In this way, I will definitely not be sentenced to a few years for manslaughter and calling to surrender."

"Moreover, he wrote a doctor's order for half of the one million insurance premium."

"But, I didn't expect that because I called the police in advance, manslaughter became intentional homicide, and I might be sentenced to death!"

"So, I later took out the video."

"At least, I don't have to be sentenced to death."

Chen Yan nodded. What Cui Xiaobing said was exactly what Chen Yan had already grasped.

But there is a problem here.

"Cui Xiaobing, now you have taken out the video of Qin Liansheng asking you to kill him, so you can't get the insurance compensation."

"But you won't be acquitted for this."

Cui Xiaobing's words are consistent with the current situation Chen Yan has grasped, but they are not logical.

According to Cui Xiaobing, he and Qin Liansheng planned to kill people to defraud insurance, but because they called the police in advance, it turned into intentional homicide.

Isn't this nonsense?

Also, even if what Cui Xiaobing said was true, he was mentally ill, and he failed to surrender, but was convicted of intentional homicide.

Then how to explain the later video?

This was obviously a back-up plan that Cui Xiaobing had arranged in advance.

It was to prove that he could get away with it in case the insurance fraud failed.

In other words, Cui Xiaobing was prepared to fail in the insurance fraud.

Can such a person be mentally ill?

And Cui Xiaobing's next words almost made Chen Yan jump up from his chair.

"I know that I will definitely not get the money, so I have to change my confession!"
