I make a living solving crimes.

Chapter 295 The Light in the Eyes

In the interrogation room of the detention center, Chang Wei began to interrogate again.

Jiang Hongxia threw the pen and paper to Ji Xiaowang to take notes, and she watched Chang Wei's gestures and followed suit.

"Sister Hongxia, do you want to learn sign language?"

"Well, I'm the interrogator. Since the translator is unreliable, I have to learn it myself. Otherwise, do I have to look for Chang Wei every time for a case like this in the future?"

"That's right, keep going."

After hearing what she said, Chang Wei slowed down his movements, and each time he made a gesture, he verbally stated the meaning and translated Qiu Xiaosuo's words.

Jiang Hongxia has this intention, and he is willing to help her.

Qiu Xiaosuo's sign language was honed slowly after interacting with deaf-mute people in the market. For Chang Wei's standard sign language, it is like dialect meeting Mandarin, and many expressions are different.

Fortunately, the system rewarded Chang Wei with proficiency in sign language, and that was real proficiency.

No matter whether you speak in dialect or a foreign language, he can understand the meaning after thinking about it for a while.

As he gestured, he was considering giving sign language a national standard.

This matter is complicated, tedious and hard.

Fortunately, he now has a proud and arrogant tool - Jiang Hongxia.

The young policewoman has always wanted to do something big.

"Did the person in charge of the translation ask you for money?"

"No, I'm a scavenger. He knows my family has no money, but he has asked my cellmate for money before."

“Are there many deaf-mute people in the detention center?”

"I have lived here for half a year and met five people. One has been sentenced and three have been released. The families of the other three paid money for the translation."

The staff of the Municipal Bureau who were accompanying Chang Wei were all sweating.

Of course, the translator has a role to play here, but are the investigators being too careless?

It is understandable that deaf-mute people cannot speak and that they are tricked by the translator into putting their fingerprints during interrogation.

Don’t they understand now that they are in the detention center?

When they cried out for justice, did the guards ask them the reason?

If we work more carefully, would we be able to discover these translation problems earlier?

Chang Wei's movements became slower and slower. "Do you know how much money those three people gave?"

"I know one. He and I shared a bunk bed. His family gave him 200 yuan at first, but the translator thought it was not enough, so his family added another 200 yuan."

Damn, I’ll charge four hundred yuan for a show just by translating in sign language.

Is this still a volunteer?

Four hundred yuan may be a family’s savings for ten years, and they may even have to borrow money.

The entire interrogation did not dwell too much on the murder case.

Because Qiu Xiaosuo was just passing by, he would come out every night to rummage through the garbage, looking for some things that could be sold for a little money.

Broken wine bottles, scattered iron sheets, discarded books, there are always some people who don't care about these things.

Chang Wei finished the interrogation and looked at the staff from the Municipal Bureau who accompanied him. "He was wrongly accused. Let him go. Send the case back to the Municipal Bureau for reinvestigation."

The main responsibility for Qiu Xiaosuo being framed lies with the translators, but the case handlers at the Municipal Bureau were also negligent in their duties.

Let's leave these issues to the new leadership team.

"No problem, no problem, I'll go through the procedures and release you now." The staff member responded hurriedly.

"Please go back and inform the city bureau to sort out all the cases translated by the Deaf-Mute Mutual Aid Association. There may be some unjust, false and wrong cases. I will review them again this afternoon."

"Okay, Team Leader Chang, I'll do it right away." Seeing that there were no other instructions, the staff member hurried out to do his work.

Chang Wei walked over and patted Qiu Xiaosuo's thin shoulder, "Come back with me later, your grandfather is waiting for you."

The young man couldn't speak or hear, but looking at Chang Wei's gentle face, he probably understood what he meant and shed tears silently.

Only after the police from the detention center came and uncuffed him did he whimper and then burst into tears.

The time Chang Wei and Old Man Qiu agreed to meet was noon.

In fact, the old man came before dawn. When Chang Wei took the Dragon Team out, he curled up in the corner and watched.

He has been struggling at the bottom of society and has not seen many officials.

If the neighborhood committee director can be considered an official, this is probably the highest-ranking official he has ever come into contact with.

Last night, under the dim light at the gate of the courtyard, when he saw Chang Wei for the first time, he knew that this official was a good man.

Because this official's eyes are clear, clean, and full of light.

As noon approached, more and more people who had heard about the incident came to wait for news.

The scene in front of the guesthouse was even more lively than last night.

The neighborhood committee director had finished his morning work and was now staying with Old Man Qiu, waiting quietly.

I wonder what kind of answer the young special envoy will bring.

The vehicle could no longer move when it reached the intersection and had to stop on the side of the road.

When Chang Wei got out of the car, he was immediately surrounded by noisy voices.

He had a calm expression and waited for Qiu Xiaosuo to get off the car before walking towards the crowd.

When they saw Qiu Xiaosuo, the discussions around them became louder.

Qiu Xiaosuo walked beside Jiang Hongxia trembling.

The young policewoman was the kindest to him among all the others, and she "talked" to him using clumsy sign language all the way.

They are all the simplest and most basic greetings.

Chang Wei sat in the front row and would turn around from time to time to correct gestures.

These police officers are so nice!

They are actually learning sign language.

Learn the language of the deaf and dumb.

The crowd automatically dispersed to make way.

Outside the gate of the guesthouse, Old Man Qiu stood up from the curb on his knees and wiped his eyes with his sleeves. "Is it Xiaosuo?"

Liu Wenxia said happily: "It's Xiaosuo, he is following behind Team Leader Chang."

After a pause, as they came closer, her voice became more cheerful, "Xiaosuo didn't have handcuffs on, he was released."

The old man's tense mind relaxed instantly. He stood in the wind and swayed for a while. He hurriedly pulled his tattered clothes as straight as possible, bowed to Chang Wei, and saluted to the ground.

He wanted to kneel.

Yesterday Li Lai Fu told him that he couldn’t kneel.

When Qiu Xiaosuo saw his frail grandfather, he no longer cared about the studious nature of the young policewoman beside him. He secretly glanced at Chang Wei, and when he saw that he had no intention of stopping him, he trotted to the gate of the yard, picked up his grandfather, and cried loudly.

Liu Wenxia greeted Chang Wei who was walking towards her and asked anxiously, "Comrade Special Envoy, has Qiu Xiaosuo's case been investigated?"

The surroundings instantly became quiet.

Chang Wei looked around, walked out of the courtyard gate, and said loudly: "Qiu Xiaosuo's case has been investigated. He was framed by the deaf volunteer who translated sign language. He is now acquitted."

There was silence for a moment, and then deafening cheers rang out at the gate of the courtyard.

From time to time, there were shouts such as "clear sky" and "Bao Longtu is still alive".

Yesterday, these young special agents arrested Ye Zu.

Today, they cleared the name of another deaf-mute man.

Chang Wei bowed slightly to express his gratitude. Looking at the grandfather and grandson crying with joy, he whispered, "Laifu, ask the guesthouse to cook two bowls of noodles and add more oil. Sister Tuan'er, help them get two sets of decent clothes, even if they are old ones."

After spending half a year in jail, there will be no compensation.

In fact, these have nothing to do with Chang Wei.

But, in the end, I couldn't bear it.
