After Xiong Yufang was escorted back to the police station by the police, under the blinding light of the interrogation room, her whole body looked exhausted and her spirit nearly collapsed. Her eyes, which used to be full of cunning and greed, had lost all their luster, and were replaced by endless fear and deep despair. Her body sat limply on the interrogation chair, as if she had lost the strength to support herself, and her hands fell helplessly on both sides of her body, trembling slightly.
The police officers looked serious as they surrounded her, gazing at her every move with torches in their eyes, holding record books and various documents in their hands, ready to record her every word. Detective Captain Zhao Gang stood in front of her, his eyes firm and sharp, his voice low but with unquestionable majesty: ''Xiong Yufang, this is your last chance to confess and hand over all your crimes. We have already grasped a large amount of conclusive evidence, any denial on your part is futile."
Xiong Yufang slowly raised her head, glanced at Zhao Gang, and quickly lowered her head again, her lips trembled slightly, as if she wanted to say something, but it was difficult for her to speak. After a few moments of silence, she finally spoke slowly, her voice as weak as a candle in the wind: "I ... know that I can't escape, I'm willing to explain everything."
She began to describe in detail how she carefully planned to approach Xiao Xue, from the initial social occasions to hear Xiao Xue bragging about his "rich family background", the idea of using her heart was born. She described how she disguised as Xiao Xue's best friend, with sweet words and false concern to deceive Xiao Xue's trust, a little deeper into her life, to understand her family situation and financial situation.
"I just wanted to cheat some money from her at first to solve my own financial difficulties." Xiong Yufang's eyes flashed a trace of remorse, "She is too vain, always making up those lies to satisfy her own vanity, I took advantage of her this, and constantly borrowed money from her, and she would say yes every time in order to maintain her false image."
As time goes by, Xiong Yufang's appetite is getting bigger and bigger, she found that although Xiao Xue spends money generously, her money is not inexhaustible. And Xiao Xue's husband began to be suspicious of her, which made her feel threatened. Worried that her scam would be uncovered, she decided to take more extreme measures.
"I owe too many gambling debts, if I don't get a large sum of money soon, those creditors won't let me go." Xiong Yufang's body trembled, "I knew that Xiao Xue cared a lot about her two children, so I thought that if anything happened to her children, she would definitely break down, and then she would rely on me even more, and I would be able to get more money from her."
She recounted how she had purchased the poison through illegal channels, and how she had sneaked it into the children's food at Xiao Xue's home when she was not prepared. Her voice grew shaky, and her face was filled with an expression of horror and pain, as if she herself was suffering immensely as she recalled that horrible scene.
"My heart trembled as I watched the children eat that food, but there was no way back for me." Xiong Yufang was in tears, "I thought everything would go according to my plan, Xiao Xue would be completely at my mercy because of the death of the children, but I didn't expect ..."
During Xiong Yufang's explanation of his crimes, the police officers carefully recorded every detail, not sparing any doubt. They frowned from time to time and showed angry looks, feeling immense indignation at Xiong Yufang's cruelty.
Xiao Xue watched Xiong Yufang's account through the surveillance video in the next room, her hands tightly covering her mouth to prevent herself from crying out. Her eyes were filled with pain, anger and remorse, and tears kept slipping through her fingers. Every word was like a sharp knife, piercing her heart so hard that she could barely bear it. She remembered the bits and pieces of Xiong Yufang together, those seemingly beautiful memories have now become the most cruel deception, she hated why she was so stupid, easily believed the devil, leading to the children's tragic fate.
After Xiong Yufang finished explaining the process of the crime, the whole person as if relieved, collapsed in a chair, as if she had lost her soul. She knew that her life had been completely ruined and she would pay a heavy price for her greed and cruelty.
Based on Xiong Yufang's confession, combined with a large amount of evidence previously collected, including call records, text messages, bank transfer records, physical evidence, etc., the police comprehensively sorted out and verified the entire case. They made sure that every link was clear and every piece of evidence was conclusive, forming a complete and tight chain of evidence that was sufficient to nail Xiong Yufang's crime to the legal pillar of shame.
Subsequently, the police transferred the case to the Procuratorate, the Procuratorate after careful examination, that Xiong Yufang's criminal facts are clear, the evidence is solid and sufficient, according to the law to the court. The court accepted the case, quickly organized a trial.
In court, Xiong Yufang face haggard, dull eyes, she stood in the defendant's seat, the face of the judge and many listeners, the heart is full of fear and shame. She did not dare to look up at Xiao Xue and other family members of the victims, she knew that their eyes were full of hatred and anger, that gaze was enough to completely devour her.
Xiao Xue sat in the plaintiff's seat, her eyes firm and cold, staring straight at Xiong Yufang. She wanted to watch this murderer of her children be severely punished by the law and seek justice for her children. Although her heart was filled with pain, at this moment, she was more looking forward to justice.
Prosecutors in the court detailed statement of Xiong Yufang's facts of the crime, presented a copy of the conclusive evidence, each piece of evidence is like a heavy bomb, in the court caused a huge uproar. Xiong Yufang's defense lawyer tried to defend her innocence, but in front of the facts of the iron evidence, his defense appeared pale and powerless.
Xiong Yufang confessed to her crime during the trial, and she once again expressed her remorse, but she also knew that everything had been irretrievably lost. She can only wait for the judge's judgment and accept the law's severe sanctions against her.
After a long and rigorous trial process, the judge finally banged the gavel and solemnly pronounced the verdict: Xiong Yufang was sentenced to death and deprived of political rights for life for the crime of intentional homicide, fraud and other crimes.
Hearing the verdict, Xiong Yufang's body shook violently, her legs were soft, and she almost fell to the ground. Her eyes were filled with despair and fear, she knew that her life was coming to an end, and her greed and evil deeds had finally been duly punished.
When Xiao Xue heard the verdict, tears came to her eyes once again, but this time, in addition to pain, there was a hint of relief in her tears. She knew that justice had finally been done and the children could rest in peace in heaven. Although the pain of losing her children will always be with her, at this moment, she felt the justice and majesty of the law.
