On March 29, 2019, the Fuzhou Intermediate People's Court publicly tried an 18-year-old homicide case.
He Lida, 36, who was in the defendant's seat, was apologizing to the victim's family, Wang Guohua: "I feel deep regret for my past mistakes, I am sorry."
However, Wang Guohua still had a cold face.
For 18 years, in order today, he gave up his once prosperous career, sold his family property, lived in bridges and caves, slept on the street, and traveled to more than a dozen provinces and even many countries in the country, in order to bring the murderer to justice to comfort his deceased only son.
He said: "I don't want compensation, I don't want any money, as long as he pays for his life."
Two hours later, the panel reached an agreement:
He Lida was sentenced to death with a two-year suspension of execution.
Wang Guohua: As long as he pays for his life
Wang Guohua was very dissatisfied with the outcome of this trial and appealed again.
Someone said, "Forgive the people and forgive the people, the dead are gone!" Give others a chance, after all, both of them were still teenagers who had never been in the world."
But some people disagree: "How can the pain of losing a son be quietly exposed because of money and apologies, and killing people to pay for their lives is righteous"!
The hard work of a foreign country suddenly heard the bad news of the loss of a son
Wang Guohua, who lives in Fuqing, Fujian Province, originally had a happy family of "children's wives hot kangtou".
In the 1980s, the spring breeze of reform and opening up blew all over the land of China, and the lively southerners set their sights on foreign countries, hoping to find their own opportunities in foreign countries with Chinese indomitable pioneering spirit, and Wang Guohua also became one of them.
Leaving his wife and children alone, he went to Japan alone, and the boring work and inner emptiness made him pray secretly in the middle of the night, hoping to mix up as soon as possible.
Opportunities never fail to live up to the hard work of people, after several years of trial and error he set up his own decoration company in Japan, got more and more customer praise and recognition, the more money is also more and more earned.
In 1989, Wang Guohua, who returned to China to visit his relatives, bought a villa worth 5 million yuan for his family in Fuqing City, in order to give his family better living conditions, he embarked on a foreign journey again, and he was full of hopes for the future life, one day he would take his wife and son to a family reunion, and no longer suffer from the pain of missing each other in the two places.
His wife even began to apply for visas to prepare for the trip abroad. But no one expected this smooth life to come to an abrupt end on September 6, 2001.
At that time, Wang Guohua was leading his decoration team to design a plan for the customer, and suddenly received a call from China: "My son has an accident."
The impatient Wang Guohua repeatedly inquired before he learned: "My son is gone, and I will never see him again."
At that moment, his heart collapsed, no one could understand the pain of the white-haired man sending the black-haired man, all his efforts seemed to have no meaning, he stumbled back to the residence like a drunk and fell on the bed...
Hurriedly packed up his clothes and embarked on the road back to China, when the plane sailed over the bustling city, the flickering lights of wanjia no longer made him feel a trace of warmth and expectation, and his heart was full of self-blame and guilt...
It was learned from the police that on August 31, his son and a few friends were playing in a billiard hall in Fuqing, and there were several female classmates with them, during which they met 18-year-old He Lida, who also came to this pastime, and the budding of youth made him can't help but flirt with these female classmates.
So these female classmates ran back to tell Lin Yu that next, the two groups of young people who were also flesh and blood Began to argue. Because some people tried to dissuade it at that time, there was no conflict, but He Lida, who had lost face, took today's account to heart.
A few days later, someone told He Lida: "Lin Yu and a few people appeared in the billiard hall again."
So He Lida gathered more than 10 people to find Lin Yu with great momentum, saying that he was going to take this breath.
In the face of He Lida's gang who deliberately provoked trouble, Lin Yu did not give in the slightest, and as a result, an inevitable scene occurred, Lin Yu was beaten by He Lida, who was beaten by many people, and could not get up, and with the help of a group of friends, He Lida took out a knife and stabbed Lin Yulian several times.
Lin Yu staggered to the door and fell to the ground motionless. Aware of the catastrophe, He Lida's side immediately scattered and disappeared.
By the time the police and 120 arrived, Lin Yu had been out of breath for a long time.
In this fight, one was killed and one injured, and He Lida was on the run...
Although the police repeatedly went to the door to persuade Ho Li-tat's parents to let their son turn himself in as soon as possible, they were denied knowing his whereabouts.
Lin Yu
The fate of the family was rewritten, looking at the cold body of his son in the morgue, Wang Guohua vowed to get justice for his son, he picked up the photo of He Lida's family and embarked on a long road to find the murderer with the police.
16 years of long road to pursue the murderer
Because of the protection of his family, He Lida disappeared without a trace like the evaporation of the human world.
Until going to court:
In the past 18 years, Wang Guohua has never received an apology from the He family
Whether it is family, relatives, or friends who are related to each other, they even send he Lida's photos to His fellow villagers in Fuqing in many countries through the Chinese trade union to prevent He Lida from fleeing abroad.
As soon as there is any clue, whether it is reliable or not, he will rush to the squat for as little as three or five days, and more than 20 days, and he is not concerned about his career, but uses all his mind to pursue the murderer.
He mentioned in an interview that once I was told that I saw a man under the Bridge in Sydney who looked a lot like Ho Li Da, and I immediately flew there and squatted there for a week without seeing it. But intuition told me I was one step late, and that feeling was strong.
He found out that He Lida's family had an aquatic product shop in Guangdong, so he squatted around the seafood shop every day, waiting for the shadow he had been waiting for for a long time.

Whenever the cold winter moon, thousands of families immersed in the atmosphere of reunion, Wang Guohua put on sunglasses and put on a trench coat, like a spy, wandering around the He family, hoping that He Lida, who went home for the New Year, would be caught by him.
During this period, he has traveled to more than a dozen provinces such as Henan, Jiangsu, Inner Mongolia, Hubei and other provinces, and even abroad in Australia, Myanmar, South Korea, Canada and other countries.
The money was spent like running water, and the years of running and labor also made his health deteriorate, and he was already full of gray hair in his 40s, and finally, his wife could not stand this repressive life and advised her to give up her attachment and start from scratch.
Wang Guohua also thought about it, but whenever he closed his eyes, there would be a scene of his son falling in a pool of blood, and after waking up, he took the photo of his son in cold sweat and looked at it for a long time...
Wang Guohua's family
Growing up, he hardly spent much time with his son, and even the last memory stayed when he was in elementary school...
They're divorced!
He sold the villa he had worked so hard for, and gave the money to his wife to let her start over in Japan.
When he sat alone in his old overgrown house, he understood... This home is scattered.
Skynet regained the true evil law
Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, 2017 has passed.
In the past 16 years, after a long period of baptism, the once spirited businessman has become a white-haired old man with white hair, but he has never given up pursuing the murderer.
Finally, Huangtian paid off, and a friend provided him with a clue and met He Lida, who opened a shop in Shenzhen.
On that day, it was drizzling in Shenzhen, Wang Guohua came to Shenzhen with a truck, squatted on the streets of Phuket for a week, and one evening, he finally saw the figure he had "thought" for many years, that moment! His tears of excitement welled up, and he tried to resist the urge to run over and tear him to shreds!
Wang Guohua knew very well in his heart that this might be his last chance, and if he let him run away again in this life, he wouldn't want to see him again!
The same did not give up also The Fuqing police, when they received the call from Wang Guohua was also a burst of happiness, they immediately contacted the police in Shenzhen!
On September 30, 2017, Zhu Junyang, a Hunan man who opened a computer repair shop in Shenzhen (later confirmed by He Lida), was arrested.
16 years! He had waited too long for this moment...
duration! The He family once entrusted the middleman with a letter: "How much money is needed to let He Lida go."
Wang Guohua only replied faintly: "I don't want any money, I just want him to pay for his life."
Ho Li Da
On June 14, 2019, the Fuzhou Intermediate People's Court rendered a first-instance judgment:
He Lida's death sentence was suspended for two years, and it was accompanied by civil compensation of 819535 yuan.
His father, Ho Dao Ming, was convicted of intentional harboring and sentenced to 4 years and 6 months in prison.
For 18 years, when his family was torn apart and miserable, the murderer changed his name and surname and escaped under the protection of his family.
To this! Wang Guohua expressed dissatisfaction with the verdict and appealed
But both family and friends advised him to let go of his attachment and return to a normal life as soon as possible.
Some things can only be accepted when they happen, and some people can only let go if they lose them. We couldn't let go of our attachment all the way, stumbled until we were all scaled and bruised, and suddenly looked back! Only to find that I had been lost for too long...
