Chapter 163: Chapter 79: Many Tragically Fall Victim to Poison (Requesting Subscriptions and Monthly Tickets)
Wang Wenbin was already mentally disturbed by Luo Fei’s words, and coupled with Zhao Donglai’s psychological offensive, he finally broke down.
"Okay, I’ll confess, I’ll come clean, but you must keep your word and give me lenient treatment!"
"Certainly, hurry up and tell us," Zhao Donglai said quickly.
Luo Fei was also energized, picking up a pen ready to take notes.
Then, as Wang Wenbin described, the truth of him murdering Xu Mingqing slowly came to light...
Actually, all this started from Wang Wenbin’s youth.
He didn’t know exactly when, but after entering puberty he gradually realized he was different from normal people because he liked men!
He had no way to interact with girls, instinctively hated women when he saw them, but had a fondness for boys of his age.
In those times, such a situation was intolerable to the secular world, and he would be condemned by everyone, so he dared not tell anyone and could only suppress the urges within him.
However, time did not dilute these feelings; instead, it made his longing to be with men increasingly stronger.
He started to boldly attempt finding love online, but unfortunately every time the guy on the other end heard he was gay, they would immediately block him, and some would even curse him harshly.
Under such long-term repression, he gradually became perverted, and ultimately attempted to assault an elderly neighbor three years ago, only to be accidentally caught when the neighbor’s son came home, who then beat him up viciously, making it a known scandal.
His parents, upon learning this, held him down and beat him relentlessly for bringing shame to the family.
After that, Wang Wenbin was thoroughly disgraced and couldn’t stay in Luoping County, so he stole money from home and fled to Ningjiang County, renting a house and making a living by collecting scrap.
Moreover, once he was out, he realized that without family or acquaintances watching him, he could finally wholeheartedly pursue men.
Every day afterward, he rode a tricycle through various villages nearby, ostensibly collecting waste but actually selecting suitable targets.
Due to his previous failed experiences, he learned his lesson; young and strong ones were off-limits, those with family were off-limits, so he finally targeted those elderly without children, those protected under basic welfare.
"These elderly have no ability to resist, and nobody to back them up; pressured by pride, they don’t dare report to the police, making them the perfect targets."
Seeing him speak without any shame about this, both Zhao Donglai and Luo Fei felt nauseated.
Luo Fei seized the key point and asked immediately, "Hold on, hearing you say this, does it mean you’ve succeeded using this method before?"
Since he was planning to confess to murder, he didn’t care about this, so Wang Wenbin nodded without thinking, "Yes."
They initially thought him harassing Mr. Liu from Yang Family Village was just an accident, but surprisingly he had previous offenses!
An ordinary murder case unexpectedly uncovered so many situations, Zhao Donglai and Luo Fei exchanged a look and became even more invigorated!
"Who else? Hurry up and confess honestly!"
As soon as Zhao Donglai finished speaking, Wang Wenbin started spilling like beans from a bamboo tube, and the interrogation room for a while was filled only with his voice and the sound of Luo Fei’s pen scratching furiously...
After a while, when he finally stopped, Zhao Donglai pursued, "Is there anything you left out?"
"None."
Only then did Zhao Donglai glance at the notebook in front of Luo Fei, glimpsing a long list of names showing no less than ten elderly victims!
Both men were somewhat incredulous.
"So many people, was there not a single report to the police?"
Zhao Donglai hadn’t expected such heinous crimes could occur in Ningjiang County’s jurisdiction, and what was more puzzling was that he had never heard of any reports like this.
So what’s going on with these victims, why did none choose to report, were all these years of legal education really in vain?
"Because every time I took videos, and I told them if they dared to call the police, I would post these videos online for everyone around them to see! Haha, so those old guys didn’t dare call the police!"
Wang Wenbin said this and laughed smugly.
Zhao Donglai was furious, "You can still laugh, assaulting elderly, are you even human! However, what confuses me is, since you liked these elderly, why did you kill Xu Mingqing?"
"Who said I liked those old things! I sought them out only because they were easier to target, actually I still prefer younger men! They’re way cuter than those wrinkled old people, but unfortunately, I never found a suitable one, until I met Xu Mingqing that day!"
"That afternoon I had just sold some scrap, planning to grab a meal and head home, but happened to run into him on the road; he looked just too much like my taste! I couldn’t help but strike up a conversation, expecting to be cursed again, but surprisingly, he didn’t."
"Later we chatted, and when he said he was going to the county looking for work, I lied saying I knew a place hiring and asked if he wanted to come with me to check it out. Unexpectedly, he agreed, so I waited until dark and took him to the channel by the back mountain of Yang Family Village, intending to take advantage of him."
At this point, Wang Wenbin pouted again, "Unfortunately, young ones are not as obedient as those old ones; once he realized I was deceiving him, he wanted to run away. Of course, I couldn’t let him, but he started yelling, trying to call people over, so I had no choice but to pick up a stone from the ground and knock him out..."
