Zhang Yingying, a name that makes people feel heart-wrenching when they mention it.
Born in 1990, she comes from a poor family in Nanping, Fujian Province.
His father, Zhang Ronggao, Chinese, his mother, Ye Lifeng, had not studied, and there was a younger brother below.
Zhang Yingying has been very competitive since she was a child, graduated from Sun Yat-sen University with a bachelor's degree, was escorted to Peking University for graduate school, and then went to the University of Illinois in the United States for visiting and exchange, and continued her further studies.
She and her doctoral boyfriend Hou Xiaolin, who was also sent to Peking University, have been in love for 7 years, and the two are ready to talk about marriage.
In this way, she is a Chinese scholar going to the United States, a proper scholar, the pride of the whole family, and the future is immeasurable and the future can be expected.
But all of this was completely rewritten on June 9, 2017.
On this day, she put on her school bag, as usual, walked out of the university of Illinois, and said hello to her classmates, saying that she was going to a farther place to sign a rental contract with the landlord.
However, instead of waiting for the shuttle bus at the school gate, she accepted an invitation from Christensen, a strange man who claimed to be a police officer, who said he would be "happy to take you along the way."
Zhang Yingying, who was still a little worried, completely let down her guard after the other party showed a fake police badge, and the ghost sent God to the "death black car".
When the car reached the halfway, the other party suddenly turned around and changed direction, carrying Zhang Yingying straight to his residence.
Zhang Yingying found out that she had been deceived, but it was too late.
She was violently pushed into the door of her apartment by this strange man who was 1.8 meters tall.
Next, it was the man's inhumane atrocities against her.
After a punch and kick, the other party used a baseball club to brutally split Zhang Yingying's head in half.
Then he squeezed Zhang Yingying's neck tightly with both hands until she fainted.
However, it's not over yet.
This mad man then carried out X aggression against Zhang Yingying, who was already scaly, bleeding from his head, and dying.
Immediately after, the behavior of this demon was even more heinous.
He cut off Zhang Yingying's head and carried out a bloody and cruel dismemberment.
This beautiful Chinese female student died tragically in a foreign country.
She would never have imagined that she would go to the United States for further study, but in exchange for a catastrophe that would kill her.
She did not expect that the so-called police officer who invited her to the car was also a student at the University of Illinois, and a psychopath who was extremely fascinated by serial killings.
And she is just a "prey target" for the demon to play a serial killing game.
Today, 5 years have passed since Zhang Yingying was killed, more than 1700 days.
What is the situation of her parents, who are more than half a hundred years old?
It is said that time can dilute everything, but let time run, this bitter couple is still deeply trapped in the great grief of losing their beloved daughter.
This pain cannot be described in words.
As Zhang Yingying's father said:
"You look a lot like my Yingying."
This sentence is that after Zhang Yingying's tragic death, her mother Ye Lifeng would murmur to herself as soon as she saw the young girl.
People around her thought that Ye Lifeng had "lost her heart" and avoided her from afar.
As everyone knows, Ye Lifeng, who is extremely sad because of the loss of her daughter, is actually sober.
Just because she misses her daughter too much, her spirit is already on the verge of collapse.
From the disappearance of their daughter and the tragic death, to the couple's help of their son-in-law to the United States to collect evidence and accuse the murderer, until the end of the case, the process lasted for two years.
In the past two years, Ye Lifeng has already cried dry her eyes.
Later, because the visa in the United States had expired, this desperate mother had to return to China with her husband.
After returning to China, she was in a trance all day and washed her face with tears.
Not only that, but in order to go to the United States to find their daughter, they are in debt.
The loss of their beloved daughter, being isolated, and in debt, the current life, in addition to obscurity, is pain.
"What hope is there to live like this?"
Ye Lifeng asked herself more than once.
And in his father Zhang Ronggao's heart, why didn't he tear his heart and lungs apart like his wife?
When the demon presented the detailed process of torturing and killing Zhang Yingying to the judge in court, Zhang Ronggao and his wife were forced to leave the scene several times with tears in their eyes.
As parents, how can they bear to listen to it?
As soon as he closed his eyes, Zhang Ronggao's mind was full of bloody scenes of his daughter being cruelly hurt by this devil.
In order to stop thinking about his daughter, he once thought about selling the house, returning to his hometown with his wife, and guarding a few acres of thin land to live.
But after the information about the house was hung out, no one asked.
And the more I couldn't bear to think of my daughter, the more I kept thinking about it.
In such mental torture, Zhang Ronggao simply moved to the attic where his daughter once lived.
On her daughter's desk in the attic, there are photos of Zhang Yingying before she died.
Looking at her daughter with glasses in the frame and a big smile, touching the books she had read and the old clothes she had worn.
It was in this study that my daughter had described to him with great anticipation that after returning from studying abroad, she must let them live a good life.
This man in his 50s couldn't help but lie on his desk and cry bitterly.
But in order to pay off his debts, in order to live, he had to put away his tears, let go of his grief, and return to the post on which he earned a living.
One washed his face with tears all day, the other went to work in a muddy state, and the couple struggled in hell every day.
In Ye Lifeng's view, it doesn't matter whether outsiders feel crazy or not crazy.
Because all her thoughts were on searching for her daughter's bones.
She did not believe that her daughter's bones had been thrown into the garbage bags, much less that they had been burned in the dump.
"My daughter may still be there."
"Only his father would be foolish to believe that his daughter was gone."
"To live is to see people, to die is to see corpses", Ye Lifeng was so determined to look forward to the miracle.
It's just that such expectations will never have an answer.
Ye Lifeng thought about going back to the United States more than once to find her daughter's body, but suffering from the epidemic in the United States, this only hope was finally disappointed.
After Zhang Yingying disappeared for 789 days, her remains finally have an exact whereabouts.
The murderer used the account of the place where the remains of the deceased were dumped as a bargaining chip in exchange for the life sentence of not carrying out the death penalty.
He said that after Dismembering Zhang Yingying's body, it was divided into three garbage bags and discarded in different garbage bins around the city.
But these private dumps, before landfilling, are compressed many times.
That is to say, the volume of Zhang Yingying's body after compression may be smaller than a mobile phone.
To find her remains, whether technically or in terms of expenses, it can be said that it is a moon in the water and a bamboo basket to draw water.
Father Zhang Ronggao said helplessly:
And Ye Lifeng?
She wasn't dead-hearted.
Seeing that her mother could not get out of the grief of losing her sister, Zhang Yingying's younger brother sensibly married early and soon gave birth to a child.
Thinking about having a grandchild makes the mother's pain a little less.
Now Ye Lifeng, while carrying her grandson, silently wiped her tears when no one was there.
However, who could have predicted that the tragic death of her daughter would not be the final blow to Ye Lifeng and Zhang Ronggao.
After going to the United States to find a daughter, traveling across the ocean to fight a lawsuit, and suing the murderer's university for the failure of two psychological counselors, those who initially expressed sympathy for them, as the matter became more and more concerned, their emotional balance slowly tilted.
Some people compare this unfortunate couple to the daughter's mother Jiang Ge, who also died tragically in a foreign country.
Also across the keyboard, they said they "ate their daughter's human blood buns."
And their fundraising in the United States has also been questioned by many netizens.
Many people left a string of dirty insults in the North American Chinese forum:
"This family is so ugly."
"You took the money privately, do you want to do things for yourself?"
Hearing these chilling questions, Ye Lifeng was so angry that she directly overturned the table.
At this time, Zhang Ronggao could only silently shed tears, holding his wife's hands and persuading her to be patient.
The net storm is tantamount to casting a handful of salt on their already festering wounds.
But the truth is that part of the ye Lifeng couple's fundraising in the United States was donated to the American girl who provided the evidence of the murderer's recording, and the rest was donated to the University of Illinois in the name of the "Yingying Foundation".
This kind couple wants to use their last kindness after their daughter's death to help those international students who also died in a foreign country due to accidents.
But their kindness is interpreted by a group of ruthless people as greedy and shameless.
The coolness of human nature pushed them into the abyss again.
To this day, such slander continues.
The tragic death of her beloved daughter;
5 years later, they still can't get out of the shadows;
Living in hellish pain every day, dreaming of finding the remains of his daughter;
From time to time, I also have to face a network storm that kills people without blood...
Ye Lifeng and Zhang Ronggao, a couple who have been beaten to the point of blood by life, are in a very distressing situation today.
Ye Lifeng, who is at home with her grandchildren, often involuntarily compares herself with her grandchildren, saying:
Between the words, there is sadness.
During this period, Jiang Ge's mother also sent a message to comfort them, advising them to try to get out.
But Zhang Ronggao could not let go, he shook his head and said:
Admittedly, in the face of their suffering, as outsiders, we cannot imagine.
The phrase "forget, let go" that I want to say but dare not say may be kind, but it is the most cruel.
Because how much it hurts, only they know it.
As the writer Canoe put it:
Only one sentence:
"Please cherish!"
