Chapter 40 Is she guilty?

Cheng Xueer and I...have we ever made such a promise?

Xia Jinyan was silent and couldn't help but recall the events of his childhood.

Yes... we were probably in the fifth grade of elementary school. She and I did sit under a tree and promised not to bully each other in this life, but... that little childhood memory has already been twelve years ago.

Xia Jinyan is a genius who can get the first prize in a big city. He has strong logical reasoning ability and an excellent memory. Normally, Zhou Tianzuo and Cheng Xueer's brains are definitely not as good as his.

But the young trialist did not expect that the girl still remembered the innocent promise that even he had almost forgotten.

Even, she stuck to this promise and would not waver until her death.

Xia Jinyan turned his head and no longer looked at Cheng Xueer's charred body.

"Xia Jinyan! Xia Jinyan! Listen to me!"

At this moment, Zhou Tianzuo climbed up. As soon as he reached the rooftop, he ran to Cheng Xueer and protected her firmly.

"Xia Jinyan, I admit that we killed people, but those people deserve to die!"

He threw a lot of ID cards on the ground and spoke very quickly:

"Chu Pengyuan, 43 years old, from Lanping County, suspected of child trafficking, is at large!"

"Liu Xigui, it is determined that he is a major suspect in the case of molesting a woman in Dongjuncheng that occurred on May 17, 2019..."

"Luan Yanping, female, defrauded a large number of orphans and elderly people in rural areas out of their savings. The amount of the crime exceeded 10 million. She is at large!"

"For the record, in order to maintain Xueer's life, a total of eight corpses were buried in the cement slab downstairs."

"But I promise, those people should all die!"

"This is their ID card. You can go investigate. The wanted posters are still there! There is also part of the body in the cement board. These are all evidence!"

"Killing the damned people, what's wrong with us?"

On the rooftop, Zhou Tianzuo's voice became louder and louder, until finally he roared angrily and stared at Xia Jinyan sadly and angrily.

"But, we are not qualified to judge... ha." Xia Jinyan's words stopped abruptly and he did not say any more.

——If Zhou Tianzuo and Cheng Xueer are not qualified to kill people who deserve to die, then what reason does he have to judge them?

After all, the young trialist does not believe that "only the law can judge a person."

He understands very well that the existence of the law is necessary. Only with procedural justice and convicting people in accordance with the criminal law can the greatest fairness be achieved.

But if a person kills a death row prisoner, is he guilty?

According to the current law, he is probably guilty.

But isn’t it a kind act to kill a fugitive criminal to prevent him from committing future crimes?

Xia Jinyan has always had the idea of ​​"rebelliousness" in his heart:

The law can judge people because it holds a gun in its hand.

Ultimately, strength brings the power to judge.

Xia Jinyan rubbed the ring and said calmly:

"Cheng Xueer is dead, this is an established fact."

"What drives the movement of this body is the borer toxins, which animate the dead body. The queen of the borer lives in the depths of this body, releasing toxins to maintain Cheng Xueer's activities while longing for the human soul."

"As long as the queen lives, you will keep killing people."

"Can you guarantee that everyone you kill in the future will die?"

"Besides, Queen Borer will be born eventually. What should you do at that time?"

Cheng Xueer coughed weakly, perhaps because she died long ago. Her current body is more like a "toy that can be modified at will." Under the catalysis of borer toxin, her skin has begun to heal slowly, and large areas of flesh and blood are constantly

Split and reorganized, causing her to be in severe pain every minute.

"Maybe." Cheng Xueer grinned, her smile still bright:

"Maybe I will become an evil boss in the future, hehe..."

"In this case, to nip it in the bud, I must deal with you here." Xia Jinyan's ring once again emitted a hazy gray light:

"In order to avoid future chaos, Queen Borer must die, and you can also get...rest in peace."

"Respectfully." Zhou Tianzuo's arms tightly hugged Cheng Xueer, not caring about the dirty blood:

"Her resurrection was not her intention. In order to survive, Xueer only killed people who deserved to die. Even if there are changes in the future, at least for now, she is still innocent."

"What nonsense are you talking about whether you are innocent or not? Don't you understand the principle of letting the tiger go back to the mountain? When the queen of the borer is born, many people will die."

"Jinyan, you didn't refute my words. You also think that she is innocent now, right?"

"...For the people of the future, killing her is the best choice. No matter who it is, they must die."

Zhou Tianzuo was silent and said bitterly:

"Are Cheng Xueer and I...also in the category of [no matter who it is]?"

"..."

"Jinyan, I also committed a murder and was an accomplice. The fraudster named Luan Yanping was discovered by me and deceived into my home."

"I know, I can guess it, but it doesn't matter. I'm doing a good deed. Now, Tianzuo, put Cheng Xueer down, I'm going to take action."

"Hey...are you trying to convince yourself to just kill Xue'er and let me go...but it's useless, I will die with Xue'er, and after she dies, I will commit suicide." Zhou Tianzuo touched the girl's hair and smiled.

warmth:

"She has already left me once, and I can't let her go alone again."

"Xue'er is very afraid of the dark."

Zhou Tianzuo's actions were not hysterical, and his demeanor was no different from usual, but Xia Jinyan knew that this guy would definitely keep his word.

My close friends who grew up together are all equally stubborn people.

The young trialist sighed, not knowing what to do.

In public, the queen borer is a potential danger and must be eradicated.

For me, this is my own trial. Only after killing the borer can I complete the task and then join the temple and become an apprentice.

But no matter what happens in the future, at least Cheng Xueer is innocent now.

And after all, they are his only friends.

"I will watch you." Xia Jinyan turned around and walked downstairs. His back was as tall and straight as a proud cypress:

"Go to West Vancouver and live there in anonymity as you wish, but remember, I will watch you until you die."

"My promise not to commit murder is only based on the premise that you are innocent."

Zhou Tianzuo was shocked:

"Words of caution!"

"No need to say any more." Xia Jinyan didn't look back, just waved his hand:

"Happy wedding..."

On the rooftop, a couple hugged each other and cried.

…

Xia Jinyan walked for a long time, aimlessly, and his speed was sometimes fast and sometimes slow.

Finally, when he came to his senses, he had arrived at the school where he was a high school student.

"ha……"

He couldn't help but laugh out loud, climbed over the fence skillfully, and quietly ran to the corner of the playground.

Just like a few years ago, the lush poplar tree still stands here.

The tester sat under the tree, closed his eyes, smelled the fragrance of the flowers, and let the breeze blow through his nose.

The two people sitting here with me, chatting about the future and dreams, will probably never see each other again for the rest of their lives.

After all, I haven't...completed the cleanup.

He took off his ring and threw it into the river outside the school.

With a bang, the ring was submerged into the water and disappeared.

In the quiet afternoon, the young teacher's voice sounded sad and lonely.

"Sorry, I'm not qualified to wear it for you."
