I believe that there is no one who has not had such a daydream, often coveting that the wind can blow money. But is the money blown by the wind a blessing or a curse? Can money that falls from the sky really be picked up? Dare to pick it up?
In real life, the windfall of wealth is not nothing, and on ordinary days, from time to time, criminal cases caused by mistakes about banks will appear, and such things are not uncommon and emerge endlessly. What has changed is the irony of oolong, and what has not changed is the anger of the public.
There is no one who dares to reach out and take more bank money than "talent", because they are the only people who can get bank money without robbery. But more than a decade ago, there was an unlucky egg who took the money from the bank and was found by his father to be "wrong or innocent", but he was sentenced to the top in the first instance.
The protagonist's name was Xu Ting, and he was still very young at that time, only in his early twenties.
When Xu Ting was a child, when he transferred to the school in the third grade, because his parents worked in the mine, he was discriminated against by the school's class, believing that "the children in the mine were poor in learning and difficult to adjust", and no class teacher was willing to accept him as a transfer student. Coinciding with this node to catch up with the midterm exam, Xu Ting was very competitive, and he took the first place in a grade, changed the prejudice of the teachers, and successfully enrolled.
From this point of view, Xu Ting is a child who is not bad at learning, if he develops calmly, he will go to a good university on a down-to-earth basis, and there will be no later storms. But in the third year of junior high school, Xu Ting's rebellious personality broke out, and he began to skip class and drop out of school, and from time to time blurted out: "I am so tired of reading, can the teacher send me money?" Working outside is also tiring, and the boss will pity me for sending a few money to spend. ”
That's what he thought, and he did. The whole third grade was abandoned, and he ran outside to work alone, but before he could deeply accept the beatings of society, Xu Ting simply tasted it. After returning, he shared his experience with those students who longed to drop out of school and work, saying: "Without knowledge, it is not you who work, it is the work that beats you." ”
He told his parents that he should work hard to re-study the third year of junior high school, which was the change of heart and anger he had exchanged for a year in the jianghu and touched a nose of ash. But unfortunately, he still became the tail of the crane and was admitted to the worst Linfen Second Middle School. Mother Yang Suzhuo lamented: "That year's focus line was 505 points, Xu Ting took the exam 476 points, only on linfen second middle school, if you prepare earlier, you should be able to be admitted to the first middle school or the third middle school, the second middle school is the worst in Linfen." ”
But those who have walked around in society, and then go back to study, most of them have no mind. Xu Ting finished the worst middle school and failed to get into college. He had the desire to learn, and went to a university in Yuncheng to attend a self-funded junior college, with a tuition fee of 6,000 yuan per term, which was 2004, and you can imagine how expensive the tuition fee is. After less than a year of persistence, Xu Ting's academic career collapsed in the middle.
At this point, Xu Ting has no chance to study, and the only way out is to work.
On January 1, 2006, Xu Ting traveled thousands of miles from Shanxi to the coveted Guangzhou. From the exit of the train station, there are all black pressed heads, all kinds of people, a complicated world. Xu Ting chanted the survival tips of the Guangzhou Railway Station: "Don't eat, don't drink, don't say, don't ask, don't answer, don't stop, don't pay attention, don't care."
Searching and searching, about half an hour, Xu Ting finally found liu humin, a long-awaited connector, who was an old colleague of his father, and has now come to Foshan, Guangdong to develop, this time specially entrusted by his father to meet him.
"Brother Humin, why is the air in Guangzhou so strange?" As soon as I got off the train, I smelled a fishy smell, it was the smell of money. Xu Ting smirked at Liu Humin, who was full of hope for Guangzhou and convinced that he could make a difference in this new and unfamiliar land.
Liu Humin looked at Xu Ting and laughed at the fact that he had just arrived and knew nothing, "Guangzhou is a place with a hundred rivers, and since the sea is full of rivers, it is natural to be mixed, and many things are dangerous." ”
Xu Ting's first job was working as a partner at a Shanxi noodle restaurant. Speaking of the reason, it is like that, the first day of coming to Guangzhou is very ordinary to eat a bowl of noodles in this noodle restaurant, and very ordinary to see the recruitment notice of the noodle restaurant, package food and housing, monthly salary of 600 yuan, Xu Ting is active and has no ability, do not pick things, see everything done, so the next day he rushed to work.
But before long, Xu Ting felt tired, working in the restaurant could not learn anything, had no future, and made a lot of oil every day. No matter what era, young people have a kind of "unhappy will not dry" impulse, Xu Ting has no worries, and began to look for a job again, but this time it is not so playful, know how to take the intermediary to help, the result was cheated of 500 yuan. He remembered Liu Humin's words, Guangzhou really had a lot of routines, and then touched his nose and blue face several times, before he set a monthly salary of 800 yuan and worked as a security guard in the court.
The job came in time, because a day later, Xu Ting would not be able to eat, and at that time he was already penniless, gritting his teeth and cursing the scammer intermediary.
But who could have imagined that Xu Ting, who was almost poor, would get rich overnight.
At about 22:00 on the evening of April 21, 2006, Xu Ting was on his way back to the dormitory, trying to get some money, but of course, he didn't have any money in his card, only a pitiful 170 yuan. In order to save the 2 yuan handling fee for inter-bank transactions, Xu Ting decided to withdraw money from an ATM machine of the commercial bank on Xipingyun Road on Huangpu Avenue.
He was accompanied by a colleague named Guo Anshan, who was waiting opposite the ATM machine of a commercial bank, across a sky bridge.
Coming to the ATM machine, Xu Ting's spirit was a little confused, thinking that after four months of stumbling, the money was not saved, but he was stripped naked by the scammers, and he regretted coming to Guangzhou a little. Now I have to withdraw money from the card that can't make ends meet, and my heart is not a taste.
Frustration erupted wordlessly, and the boy in his early twenties burst into tears, and his hand did not heed the call to press an extra zero on the ATM machine. He originally only wanted to press 100 yuan, and inadvertently pressed it to 1000 yuan, but to his surprise, the ATM machine did not prompt any errors. What's even more bizarre is that after a moment's pause, the ATM machine actually spat out ten pieces of RMB worth 100 yuan.
All this seemed to be "taken for granted", but Xu Ting was stunned. His mouth was slowly and big, but he couldn't say a word, and his heart was beeping: "Isn't it dazzling?" ... Not kidding, right? ”
Xu Ting rubbed his eyes, in order to prove that all this was not an illusion, raised his hand and slapped himself twice, and then pinched the person, it was clear that there was pain! This is the real human world!
He reached out and touched the 1,000 yuan facial paper that was still hot at the exit, surprised, ecstatic, touched, and his heart was surging with excitement, but his heart was panicked like ten thousand grasshoppers jumping.
Take or don't take? Don't hesitate, too much hesitation can't be done.
A dirty word scolded the exit, Xu Ting strengthened his courage, lightning into the pocket. Checking the balance again, it was found that no penny was deducted, showing that the card was still 170 yuan.
Mistakenly hitting and bumping into this loophole, Xu Ting was still unfinished.
Curiosity drove him to press 1,000 yuan again, and the ATM machine obediently spat out 1,000 yuan again. Xu Ting scolded another dirty word, and took the money in his pocket with his hand, and then he scolded a dirty word every time he took the money.
On the other side of the overpass, colleague Guo Anshan waited for 20 minutes and did not see Xu Ting return, and when he was impatient, he went to the opposite side of the overpass to find someone.
As soon as he came to the vicinity of the ATM machine, Guo Anshan saw That Xu Ting, like "killing the red eye", had been pressing the money, and even if he was close, he did not notice it.
Guo Anshan naturally shouted "Xu Ting", Xu Ting seemed to be a thief was found, his body shook violently, and when he looked back at Guo Anshan, Guo Anshan saw that he was sweating profusely, his eyes were frightened, his expression was distorted, his body was dull, and he had an inexplicable look.
I don't know how much money was taken out at this time, but the pocket could not be filled, Xu Ting stuffed the money into the jacket, braced it up, and the belt on the lower body was tightly strangled, so that the money would not fall.
Guo Anshan's first reaction was, "Xu Ting is so rich? But in an instant, he erased this conjecture, asked the reason, and swallowed his saliva, hating himself for not coming earlier.
Guo Anshan acted as a security guard, escorted Xu Ting all the way back to the dormitory, closed the doors and windows, and did not dare to turn on the lights, just the faint light of the night light, the two began to count money, I don't know how long it took, a stack of hundred yuan bills pressed ten pieces of a small pile, ten za a small pile, neatly laid out the entire wooden bed, a full 65,000 yuan.
According to later police records, Xu Ting only admitted that he had taken the money twice, the second time at the instigation of his colleague Guo Anshan, who also righteously distributed 10,000 yuan to Guo Anshan. However, Guo Anshan flatly denied in the transcript that it was his own idea, pointing out that it was xu Ting who fulfilled his greed to withdraw money, went three times in total, not twice, and did not share the booty with himself.
The failure to share the loot among witnesses does not seem to stand up to scrutiny. But the fact is clear that Guo Anshan also went into the water. He did not know how to use the ATM machine to withdraw money, Xu Ting taught him how to use, he used his own agricultural card to withdraw money, but only succeeded 8 times before and after, a total of 8,000 yuan, follow-up no matter how to try it failed. On the contrary, Xu Ting has not lost his hand, and Guo Anshan can only salivate and look at it, complaining that this is not a perfect loophole.
According to bank statistics afterwards, Xu Ting operated a total of 171 withdrawals, totaling 175,000 yuan.
Guo Anshan was unwilling and indignant, "One white gives, one white take, what you love and what I want, why should I only be worth eight thousand." ”
At 10:00 a.m. the next day, Guo Anshan concealed Xu Ting, went to apply for a fake ID card, opened an account at the commercial bank, deposited 150 yuan, and returned to the ATM machine to repeat the old trick. This time only took 10,000 yuan and was not successful, Guo Anshan took a sip of water in hatred, plus the last 8,000 yuan, he got a total of 18,000 yuan. Envious of Xu Ting's withdrawal of more than ten times more money than himself, he did not think of threatening him to share some of himself, but poking out the fish in the end was the thing that broke the net, and he had to think about it.
In just one or two days, he took a large amount of money from the bank, and he was still unconscious, Xu Ting quipped to Guo Anshan: "Isn't this better than robbing the bank in the movie?" Guo Anshan smiled obliquely, "Brother Xu Ting said that it is dangerous, we are taking money normally, and where it is wrong is not wrong here." ”
The two men believed that it was not appropriate to stay here for a long time, but they could not expose their weakness as thieves, so they put on their security uniforms and continued to return to their court posts on duty. It wasn't until April 24 that the two men gave each other a word of advice and parted ways.
When he left, Guo Anshan went through the resignation procedures, and he took the train back to Jiayu, Hubei Province. Five months later, out of fear, he threw away the bank card with the fake ID card.
Xu Ting's departure did not have an explanation like Guo Anshan, he did not say goodbye without greeting the unit, and only called his father before leaving, saying that he wanted to go back to Linfen.
Also on this day, the bank found the problem in hindsight, quickly reported the case, and when contacting Xu Ting's mobile phone, it has been in a state of no one answering. This means that Xu Ting has begun his life of escape.
After the East Window incident, Xu Ting did return to Linfen, but never returned home, only occasionally used a public telephone to report peace to the family, so that the family did not worry.
Xu Cailiang, the father, learned about his son's disaster from the public security and banking sides, and felt very confused, "This is also a crime? "I consulted legal sources again and received the reply that theft had been committed.
But this answer, Xu Cailiang obviously does not agree, first of all, he believes that his son is not a person who will break the law, secondly, he feels that the bank has a problem first, his children just did not do the right thing, he is very childish to test the public security organs, saying that if the money is returned, can not be held accountable. The case-handling personnel could not deny a smile and did not say anything.
Unaware of the seriousness of the matter, when Xu Cailiang received a call from his son to report that he was safe, he did not fiercely persuade his son to turn himself in, and second, he was glad that his son was not caught.
According to the police interrogation record, when Xu Ting returned to Linfen by car from Guangzhou, a very unfortunate thing happened, and the 50,000 yuan he stuffed in the quilt was stolen.
After returning to Linfen, he found a hotel to stay in, and hesitated for a month and did not dare to go home. It may be that they are afraid of being caught by the squatting case-handling personnel, or they may have the idea of "returning to Zhao after the end". Earlier, he had called the bank once and asked the same question as his father Xu Cailiang, and the bank's reply was that it was better than not continuing to escape, but the case had already been reported, and the matter was not in their control.
Most likely out of a kind of "complete return to Zhao" idea of atonement, Xu Ting had a sudden idea, ran to Taiyuan with money and opened an Internet café with friends, invested 100,000 yuan, and tried to earn enough money to return to the bank. Unfortunately, the Internet café lost money, 100,000 yuan adrift, Xu Ting, in a rage, took out 5,000 yuan to buy lottery tickets, which was the first time in his life to buy lottery tickets, a shot bought a lottery fan for a lifetime to buy lottery money, but not a penny was won.
At this point, only 20,000 yuan of 175,000 yuan is left, whether he has the intention to squander or lose unintentionally, it has become deeper and deeper. But Xu Ting never took the initiative to turn himself in, nor did he give up his love of life, and he continued to boldly go to Baoji to find a job.
Finally, on May 22, 2007, more than a year after the crime, the police at the station ended his escape through eye checks.
On November 6, 2007, the day after Xu Ting's trial began, Guo Anshan, who had already turned himself in and spent a year in prison, was released. Xu Ting's first-instance judgment was that "for the purpose of illegal possession, together with his co-defendants, he used secret means to steal financial institutions, the amount of which was particularly huge, and his behavior constituted the crime of theft" and sentenced him to "life imprisonment".
As soon as the verdict came out, the debate between all parties was fierce, which caused a great uproar in public opinion. Public opinion from all sides is emphasizing that banks are also at fault, and bank investigations explain that due to system upgrades, THE ATM machine has failed, and all withdrawals of more than 1,000 yuan will only be deducted from the account for 1 yuan. It is this layer of bizarre errors that induces Xu Ting's criminal factor, not Xu Ting's subjective and premeditated crime at the beginning.
Xu Cailiang believed that his son was "guilty of fault" from beginning to end and resolutely appealed. In the end, Xu Ting was convicted of theft and sentenced to five years in prison.
In the face of his son's sudden life upheaval, Xu Cailiang's face was like ashes, and he did not mention whether he regretted not persuading his son to turn himself in, but only lamented: "When he wanted to leave Linfen for Guangzhou, I did not agree. ”
Before going to Guangzhou, Xu Ting worked at a motorcycle sales store near his home, and he could have 1,000 yuan per month, which was a very good income in that year. He didn't understand why his son had to go to Guangzhou, if he didn't go to Guangzhou, everything wouldn't happen.
Yang Suzhuo, the mother, revealed that the reason why her son went to Guangzhou was because of a girl. Xu Ting's girlfriend Xiaoqin is his middle school classmate and was arranged by the school to intern in Guangzhou after graduating from college. Xu Ting followed his girlfriend and bought a ticket for the same day with her to Guangzhou.
Fate is like this, interlocking, seemingly insignificant choices, but it is driving a huge tragedy. Mo said that life is impermanent, and even its own human nature naturally drives human tragedy. A penniless person, a person with a bank card of only 170 yuan, in the face of ten hundred yuan facial paper strangely spit out by the ATM machine, if he does not know the final result, will he take such a temptation again?
