Five years, what does it mean for a person?
It may be a romantic love run, it may be a change in identity from a student to a professional.
It could also be the 1890-day obsession of a mother who lost her independence.
Just two days ago, the news of #Jiang Ge's mother v. Liu Xin's case on January 10 was announced in court rushed to the hot search, and also made a long-lost name break into the public eye again.
Yes, it is Jiang Ge who studied in Japan and was brutally killed by his girlfriend's ex-boyfriend.
Some people may think that this story has been heard eight hundred times, the ears are cocooned, and they have not been spared for five years.
But for Jiang Ge's mother, as for.
She has nothing left, and what is there to lose? Seeking justice for her daughter has become the only reason for her to live now, alone.
On the day of the verdict, Jiang Ge's mother waited too long and too long.
It is said that the memory of the Internet is short-lived, but the name "Jiang Ge" we will not forget.
Also will not be forgotten is the controversial party to the case - Liu Xin.
Before being killed, Jiang Ge and Liu Xin were both Japanese students.
They were girlfriends, at least as they seemed.
At that time, Liu Xin and her boyfriend Chen Shifeng proposed to break up, Chen Shifeng did not agree, and also harassed and threatened Liu Xin on the grounds of publishing nude photos.
Who didn't like scumbags when they were younger? But this scumbag is not ordinary, he has obvious violent tendencies.
Liu Xin was extremely scared, she found her friend Jiang Ge for help, hoping that Jiang Ge could take her in, and Jiang Ge agreed.
At that moment, Jiang Ge did not expect that a nod sent himself to death.
In the early morning of November 3, 2016, after the re-appeal for reconciliation was rejected, Chen Shifeng came to the door, and Jiang Ge let Liu Xin go to the door in order to protect his friends.
Liu Xin inside the door is safe, but Jiang Ge outside the door is experiencing the darkest moment of her life, she was stabbed more than a dozen times by Chen Shifeng at the door of her own home, and the knife was killed.
The murderer is Chen Shifeng, there is no doubt about it.
The Si people have passed away, and all the sustenance of a mother's life has collapsed, and if the murderer is sentenced to capital punishment, she can barely give her some relief.
But you know what? In the verdict of Japanese law, Chen Shifeng, who committed the most heinous crime, did not kill people to pay for his life, but only sentenced him to 20 years in prison.
This also means that Jiang Ge will never have the opportunity to see the scenery of the rest of his life, and Chen Shifeng, who is middle-aged, can usher in a new life after he is released from prison.
The law does not protect the victim, but allows the perpetrator to live a graceful life, this is not justice, this is controversy.
Jiang Ge's mother is difficult to let go, and every bystander is difficult to let go.
Although she was alive, her heart was dead.
If Chen Shifeng handed over a sharp knife, then Liu Xin's flawed testimony was a soft knife inserted into Jiang Ge's mother's heart.
It was the last straw that crushed her spiritual world.
Because there was no camera at the scene of the crime, what happened depended entirely on the narration of the parties, so a Rashomon incident was staged -
1, the nearby sound insulation is poor, Jiang Ge's screams even neighbors have heard, but Liu Xin lied that he did not hear in the bathroom, nor did he open the door;
2. Liu Xin claimed that he did not know on the one hand, but on the other hand, he called the police, and his behavior was seriously contrary to his language;
3, Liu Xin said that he opened the door for a while, but the door was bounced back, and then said that the door was locked and wanted to open it.
Obviously, Liu Xin's testimony is contradictory and completely untrustworthy.
Maybe she was afraid, maybe she wanted to avoid responsibility and clean herself, but timidity was never a reason for her to excuse herself.
Because, if it wasn't for the excessive bleeding, Jiang Ge would have avoided dying.
Liu Xin not only owes everyone a truth, but also bears the "three deadly sins".
First, knowing that Chen Shifeng has violent tendencies, instead of asking the police for help, he lures the wolf into the house and puts Jiang Ge in danger;
Second, after hearing Jiang Ge's cry for help, he did not open the door at the first time, so that innocent friends lost the opportunity to escape;
Third, after the murderer Chen Shifeng left, he did not rescue Jiang Ge at the first time, missing the best rescue time.
In summary, although Liu Xin did not directly hurt people, her approach was no different from killing people.
What is even more outrageous is that in the nearly one year after Jiang Ge was killed, Liu Xin did not visit and appease Jiang Ge's mother.
Even when Jiang Ge's mother called to know more, she refused to communicate by blocking and blocking.
The savior died tragically, but he had no guilt.
What is the slippery slope? That's it.
After Jiang Ge's death, there were only two words left in Jiang Ge's mother's life dictionary: ask for help.
In the past few years, Jiang Ge's mother has frequently collected evidence, filed lawsuits, hired lawyers, and fought lawsuits, and under the spotlight of the media and the attention of public opinion, her life has undergone earth-shaking changes.
The only constant is the thought and love for her daughter.
On all the social platforms of Jiang Ge's mother, there are audio texts about her daughter, even if she knows that no one will ever reply.
She always jumps out and reminds us when everyone is about to forget:
Oh, and there was such a case.
In the eyes of many people, Jiang Ge's mother is not decent enough, and she is still a bit stubborn, extreme, and even crazy.
Is it bad to return to the lives of ordinary people? There are so many families who have lost their independence, and I have not seen any of them die or live.
Moreover, no matter how sad Jiang Ge's mother is, how she misses her daughter, and how she lives like a year, it will not affect Liu Xin's life now.
She still has a smile on her face, a self-proclaimed "high society person", a stable relationship, and a suitable job.
Does it make sense to sue Liu Xin for a dispute over Liu Xin's right to life that cost time and energy? What if you win?
But I can understand her very well, just like Jiang Ge's mother said:
"If this lawsuit is won, I will teach the children not to be people like Liu Xin, and if they lose, I will teach them not to be people like Jiang Ge."
Does Jiang Ge's mother really care about those compensation? not necessarily.
She has long publicly stated that she will donate all the compensation for winning cases to the society.
Such a stubborn plea for a result is just asking society for an answer, making the death of her daughter more valuable.
There are still 4 days to go before the verdict is pronounced, and there are many opinions on the Internet about the final result.
Some lawyers said that as long as the appeal is reasonable and the strategy is appropriate, Jiang Ge's mother has the possibility of winning the lawsuit.
Article 183 of the General Provisions of the Civil Law of the People's Republic of China stipulates: "Where one suffers damage to oneself due to the protection of the civil rights and interests of others, the infringer shall bear civil liability, and the beneficiary may give appropriate compensation." If there is no infringer, the infringer has escaped or is unable to bear civil liability, and the victim requests compensation, the beneficiary shall give appropriate compensation."
If the lawsuit is won, everyone is naturally happy, but rationally, this life dispute case is likely to lose.
We all know that Liu Xin has a moral stain, she may be pointed out in this life, and it is difficult for her to retreat in the Internet era.
But from a factual point of view, it is difficult to convict Liu Xin.
At present, this topic has been read 370 million times, and the reason why we are concerned about it is not that public opinion hijacks the judiciary, but to see whether the law can save the bottom line of human morality.
If the end result of a good person is to die under the knife, then who wants to be this good person?
If kindness is destined to be betrayed, distorted, and taken for granted, then how dare we teach our children to be kind people?
If the end of a good person is invariably tragic, then no one in this world will be willing to come forward.
I know that everyone is waiting for an answer, a voice that longs deep inside.
Five years later, the Jiang Ge case should come to an end.
Since Jiang Ge's mother is not willing to give up, let the judiciary draw the final end to this matter and let humanity defeat people's hearts.
