Sanlian Life Weekly reported in June 1 1: The Nanchong case was uncovered on April 26th. Director Wang, who is in charge of publicity in Nanchong City Public Security Bureau, said that this series of robbery, rape and murder cases is also the biggest case in Nanchong this year: 4 men and 2 women were killed and 3 female students were gang-raped. However, before the case was solved, all the public information about this matter came from the Internet. Five shocking words were used: "Nanchong Massacre", and the number of victims jumped up: 29,65,438+000, with the highest reaching 600.
The rumor originated from a case. Li, then chairman of Nanchong Women's Federation, heard that two students from North Sichuan Medical College were killed at the end of April when they fell in love in Nanchong Xishan Scenic Area. Female students were raped before they died. Half a month later, two similar cases quickly aroused people's tension. 1 On the evening of May 6, 2, at about 12, the perpetrator saw 1 male1female in love at the Jialing River in the remote Nanmenba village, and four people rushed forward to snatch it. On May 5th, they robbed a couple in Xishan. But what is even more outrageous is that they didn't stop there after robbing the money. Young women were gang-raped and several people were brutally killed. Even in June of 5438+02, two middle school students who came home from swimming were killed because they witnessed their crimes. "Two days later, the heads of the four of them were found not far from the Jialing River, and all of them were rotten to some extent," said Director Wang.
These two cases are "5? 16 "case and" 5? 18 "case.
When introducing the case, Director Wang said that "the two major cases in mid-May have nothing to do with the cases at the end of April". However, people have noticed that the goal of the abuser is to "make friends"-that is, to fall in love. Continuous crime, the means are extremely cruel, and there are students among the victims, which provides the basis for rumors to attract attention.
On May 22nd, the content of a chat room on the Internet was forwarded in large quantities. One of them, who claimed to be Nanchong Normal College under the net name "Bug", said, "They said they would bomb two schools in Nanchong, one in Nanchong High School and the other in our school. Last night, we smelled burning. " "35 people died in North Sichuan Medical College and 4 people died in our school. This is yesterday's news. Those who were taken away but didn't see the body don't count." "The underworld retaliated." The cause of the incident was interpreted as "underworld revenge". Last month, Nanchong government shot and killed six students, so they threatened to kill 600 students. "
While the internet is very lively, Nanchong city is also full of this topic. Chairman Li of the Municipal Women's Federation said that she found that it had become the same topic for people on the bus, but it was not as fantastic as what was said on the Internet. "Generally speaking, it killed twenty or thirty people, and the legend is that it killed 100 students." Chairman Li believes that there is another reason why rumors have a foothold, that is, this criminal gang with great influence in Nanchong has just been destroyed. The atrocities left a heavy shadow on Nanchong citizens-media reports said that Luo broke his subordinates' legs and cut off Zhao's thumb, forcing Zhao to swallow. After some abuse, Zhao was kicked into a ditch and drowned.
The case and all kinds of conjectures attached to it directly affected the mentality and life of local citizens. Liang Ying, a graduate of Chinese Department of Nanchong Normal University, told an interesting story: during that time, because of too many rumors, the activities organized by the school were very popular. For example, the sports department held a competition, and many girls who never cared about sports also went to play. They also said helplessly that "we can't leave school now, we can only enrich our spare time". But few people go to the popular cinema in the school at once, because there is a saying that "criminals will plant a time bomb in the cinema".
In Liang Ying's impression, the effect of rumors reached its peak around May 20th. On the blackboard in the mailroom of Nanchong Normal University, there are words reminding students to be cautious when going out. There are police cars patrolling back and forth outside the school gate. The teacher has also held many class meetings to emphasize that the situation is grim, and people in the dormitory must go hand in hand when they leave the school. Even at the end of the school's literary evening, the Minister of Education and Industry emphasized. But there will always be times when students have to leave school. At that time, the students felt particularly nervous because there were rumors that the perpetrators were dragged into their cars while crossing the road.
Some ironies have also appeared. Liang Ying heard that the school teachers were worried about the problems of college students in love, and one class even signed up couples. "I don't know if this is true or another rumor," Liang Ying said.
The case caught the attention of the police. 16 In the afternoon of May, 3 men 1 women were found murdered in the reeds beside Jialing River. Director Wang said that by the 26th, the activity rate of the police was relatively high. They set up three special working groups to solve the problem of "5? 4 "case" 5? 16 "case and" 5? 18 "case. The first breakthrough is "5? 16 ",several cases were also solved at the same time.
The people also felt the input of the police. Deng Ling, who works in a TV station, said that at that time, there were policemen everywhere. In several major locations, public security personnel have to ask passing taxis, "Ask them if there were any passengers carrying big bags or suitcases on the day of the incident". It is said that there will be a number on the back of the taxi that has no problem, indicating that it has been checked. Director Wang said that the police were under great pressure and dispatched more than 600 policemen to conduct large-scale investigations in three districts under the jurisdiction of the city.
Some corresponding actions of the government also came into being. Some places, such as Internet cafes and electronic amusement halls, which were originally open all night, were asked to close at eleven or twelve in the evening. However, the street business in Nanchong was generally depressed during that time. Chairman Li of Nanchong Women's Federation thinks that he is not the kind of person who easily believes in rumors. However, it has also been relatively affected. When my daughter goes out to do business at night, she doesn't forget to tell her something like "Don't go to a secluded place, close the stall early".
Deng Ling said that Nanchong people have the habit of drinking beer with friends and relatives at night. It was very hot in Nanchong in those days, so it was very pleasant to go out for beer. But such a habit, which has almost become a local lifestyle, was invisible in those days, let alone singing in karaoke bars.
There is an interesting saying about solving crimes, which is also related to this. Deng Ling heard from a friend that there were "plainclothes" drinking beer at that time, and heard several drinkers at the next table say, "I don't think these policemen can do it either. They are too smelly to do what we do. " Later, several people who spoke were taken to the police station and confessed in the first instance.
While Nanchong is nervous, the whole country is also nervous. After word of mouth, the greater role should be attributed to the spread of the internet. This case is no longer local news in Nanchong. Liang Ying talked about a detail. At first, when she was on the phone with her parents who were far away from home, she talked about the rumors against students caused by the murder in Nanchong during this time. "At that time, my family was so serious that they didn't believe me at all and advised me to focus on books." However, a few days later, my parents called anxiously and said they had heard about it. "But when it was my parents' turn to tell me to be careful, I didn't think it was a big deal," said Liang Ying.
The case was solved, and all the rumors in Nanchong City came to an abrupt end. The influence of three farmers and 1 unemployed people on this city also reached its peak with the public capture meeting and parade specially held for them. The media described this point this way: at least 654.38+10,000 people attended the public capture meeting that day, and the streets in Nanchong City were empty for many years. On May 30th, some Nanchong people who had experienced that extraordinary period thought it was an absurd experience when interviewed.
The simplicity and primitiveness of the case make all conjectures and the resulting panic and anger light. However, few people go to investigate the series of changes it has brought. These are actually just rumors, and few people will feel cheated and insulted. Nanchong City has just turned this page. Selected manuscript: Juanzi Source: Sanlian Life Weekly Author: Jin Yan
