"Who Is He" has been broadcast for nearly half, and there are two major cases in the main line: serial murder and shredded corpse case, one has a very high sense of existence but is temporarily in a "latent" state, and the other is gradually unveiled and key clues appear.
The unit case has experienced the Gao sister case, Ai Ying case, and Xue Jiajian's case, but Xue Jiajian's sexual assault case has basically ended in episode 10, and many viewers are still confused by the Ai Ying case that ended in episode 4: "I didn't understand."
What exactly is the situation in Ai Ying's case? What does this case have to do with the shredding case? What is the case trying to express? These questions have troubled many viewers, and today, we will carefully review the mysterious Ai Ying case.
The relationship between Ai Ying's case and the shredding case
When the shredded corpse case first appeared, the first problem faced by the police was to find the identity of the victim, so Wei Guoping led the three major teams to climb over a huge garbage mountain, from which the corpses and personal belongings of the suspected victims were found.
On the clothes found, the police obtained the name "Ai Qing", thus speculating that this may be the name of the victim, and paid special attention to Ai Zi in the investigation of missing persons, so they found the "missing" Ai Ying.
In fact, the name "Aiqing" is a homonym of "Aiqin" in the name of the real victim Yu Aiqin.
The treatment of this detail may have borrowed from the habit of the victim in the prototype "Nanda Crushed Corpse Case" to write the word "qing" in his name as "qing", and they were all beautiful Qing Qing in their age, but they were targeted by demons.
Back to Ai Ying, who was "misidentified", the reason why she was suspected by the police of being a victim was because the pseudonym "Ai Ai" worked part-time in the bath, and Ai Ai was similar to Ai Qing; Second, the bathing colleagues reported that she suddenly did not say goodbye a few days ago.
The pseudonyms that have commonalities with the victims and the trajectory of sudden disappearances are very in line with the special characteristics of the victims, and the police facilitate the investigation of Ai Ying's true identity, thus revealing a domestic violence anti-homicide unit case.
Therefore, Ai Ying has nothing to do with the shredded corpse case, but because the two cases occurred at close times, the victims had similarities that were accidentally broken when the police investigated the shredded corpse case, and the two cases were originally parallel.
At the same time, many viewers think that Ai Ying is one of the victims of the attack on the previous night, which is also a misunderstanding, before the shredding case was exposed, the play showed a total of two young women being targeted by the perpetrator.
One is a nameless girl with glasses.
She was followed from the time she was on the bus, the other party kept an eye on the girl's home, and attacked her while she was using the toilet, and how the ultimate victim of this case has not been made public, it is suspected to be the content of another unit case.
The other is the bride-to-be Xiaoya, who is one of the victims of Xue Jiajian's sexual assault.
The scenes of the attack on these two girls have nothing to do with Ai Ying's case, which begins with her being mistaken for a victim of the shredding case in episode 4 and ends with turning herself in at the end of episode 4, in a total length of only 33 minutes.
Short and simple case, the details hint a lot
From the perspective of duration, Ai Ying's case is quite "short", completely less focused and detailed than the third unit case Xue Jiajian's sexual assault case, but the details involved in this case are very rich, and the information and logic are also complete.
The deceased in this case is Yan Chunsheng, the murderer is Ai Ying, the identities of the two were reversed by the police at the beginning, and finally Ai Ying took the initiative to turn herself in, the interrogation plot was simplified by the camera, Ai Ying only revealed: He should have died a long time ago, he is not a person.
Looking closely at Ai Ying's personal and family investigation before turning herself in, in the eyes of kindergarten colleagues, she is a responsible, caring and very hard-working teacher, and is loved by students.
From the fact that Ai Ying did not forget to bring teaching notes when she worked part-time in the bath, it can also be seen that the character's love for the work of teachers.
Ai Ying's work is smooth, but the family is unhappy, the couple often quarrel because they have no children, according to her husband's former colleagues, Ai Ying was beaten by her husband Yan Chunsheng for a long time because she was "unable to have children".
Subsequently, the police found out that Ai Ying had had a miscarriage, and the real one who could not give birth was actually Yan Chunsheng, so the police suspected that Ai Ying was cheating and was discovered by Yan Chunsheng, who killed Ai Ying after discovering it.
The subsequent plot is reversed, the truth is that Ai Ying killed Yan Chunsheng, and from the only confession, it can be deduced that "the wife suffered domestic violence and killed her husband", which was hinted at during the investigation process, and the key person was the boy.
On the day of the crime, the boy saw a man in a jacket covered in blood at the door of Ai Ying's house, apparently, the first to commit violence was Yan Chunsheng, who often abused his wife, and finally Ai Ying killed the other party.
For the reason for Yan Chunsheng's last violence, because there was police speculation in the early stage, most viewers knew that the fuse was Ai Ying's cheating, but because Ai Ying herself was also a victim of long-term domestic violence, everyone was very tolerant of her cheating.
But, did Ai Ying really cheat? If you look closely at the plot, you will find that there is a layer of more cruel truth.
Ai Ying has a decent and promising job in the 90s and now, and she is also passionate about her work, so why did Ai Ying go to the bath to work part-time?
You know, the bath service in the 90s was relatively single, and it was more embarrassing for young women to work part-time in it, and from the cosmetics in Aiying's locker, you can also see the nature of the work that the screenwriter wants to suggest.
You can obviously be a decent teacher, why do you want to work a part-time job that is easy to be discriminated against? The bath manager has already given an answer, Ai Ying is very "short of money", she did not receive her salary before she "disappeared", which is also a key clue for the police to suspect that she was killed.
The answer to why there is a lack of money to the point of doing sensitive occupations is buried in the communication between the police and Yan Chun's former leaders, because he is not good at sociability, and the pig killer Yan Chunsheng became the first wave of laid-off personnel.
In the 90s, laid off, couples ... Taken together, these elements are quite close to a phenomenon of that year: in order to survive, there were many husbands who personally sent their wives to the dance hall to support their families part-time, Ai Ying, could they also be "victims" of family survival?
The desperate counterattack of a tragic figure
Combined with the clues buried in the details, a more cruel truth can be found, Ai Ying, who has been subjected to domestic violence for a long time, may be forced to work part-time to support the family after her husband is laid off, perhaps out of violent intimidation or out of the pressure of "unable to have children".
Because of the part-time accidental pregnancy, Ai Ying knew that it was her husband Yan Chunsheng who really could not give birth, but the other party not only did not feel guilty, but because his wife's pregnancy was out of control again, he carried out more cruel violence against her.
Years of injury, her husband's deception and her own ironic sacrifice have completely collapsed Ai Ying's spiritual world, and she has fought back against her tragic life in the most desperate way, and the whole case is quite embarrassing.
The reason why the audience finds it difficult to understand is because the screenwriter is very restrained in the portrayal of this case, and the key clues are basically given through the way of ambush pen, and the motive and process of killing are given blanks.
In this way, the audience intuitively sees the double reversal of domestic violence anti-homicide, but the specific content needs to be understood in combination with the previous information, and the audience who does not notice the details suggest it is easy to ignore these contents.
The technique of burying clues in details that are not directly disclosed should be to trigger the audience to dig deep into the information and get the brain-burning experience of reasoning; On the other hand, it may be to circumvent the "generation gap" determined by the times.
For example, is the Ai Ying case considered murder or excessive defense?
These things may have different answers due to the progress of the times, and if portrayed according to today's standards, the audience will feel that they are inconsistent with the background of the times, but if they are presented truthfully, they may not be in line with the current value orientation.
Perhaps for these reasons, the screenwriter did not let the police make a clear review of the case, but enough details can still give the audience a complete and complex case, just waiting for everyone to chew slowly.
