Chapter 571: Chapter 467: He Must Be Sentenced to Death, and Only Death

[I’ve been a victim of domestic violence too, I know how helpless it feels. Lin Helong lays hands on people like this, even pulls a knife to hack at someone—how the hell can the police just call it a "marital dispute"? I don’t get it, isn’t this fucking attempted murder?]

[Are they only capable of papering things over? Just because it’s a married couple, domestic violence isn’t a crime? On what grounds? They should respect Xie Tongtong’s personal freedom. After beating her like this, Lin Helong has to pay the price.]

[Fuck, Lin Helong is disgusting as hell. He’s still writing letters from prison to threaten Xie Tongtong? So arrogant? Has he really gotten to the point where he thinks he’s above the law?]

[Yeah, this Lin Helong really thinks he’s untouchable. Clearly he hasn’t realized his mistakes at all in the detention center, and he’s still writing letters to threaten people....]

[I know Lin Helong’s whole family. They’ve been moving assets around for ages. Lin Helong’s got a bit of money, and his family frantically transfers property just so they don’t have to give Xie Tongtong a single cent in the divorce.]

[Haven’t you seen the news? Xie Tongtong already said she’s willing to give up all the property. Not a single cent—she only wants the death penalty for Lin Helong.]

[I support the death penalty for Lin Helong too!

[Support the death penalty for Lin Helong!]

[A guy like this who beats his wife, and this isn’t even "ordinary" domestic violence—look at what he’s done to Xie Tongtong!]

Soon, the reporters also released the video of the interview.

In the interview footage, you can see what kind of hell Xie Tongtong has been put through...

Everything Xie Tongtong said about each incident of domestic violence is true...

Over a full two years, Lin Helong hurled insults, threats, beatings, and even torture at Xie Tongtong on a long-term basis. The situation was extremely vile.

This behavior caused Xie Tongtong immense pain and harm across the board—this is straight-up the crime of abuse!

Who wouldn’t be in agony going through this?

Running into a person like this is just too damned unlucky...

From the reporter’s interview, we can see...

The domestic violence from Lin Helong against Xie Tongtong was very frequent, and the level of violence kept escalating.

All kinds of physical violence—punches, kicks—subjected Xie Tongtong to enormous injury.

After Xie Tongtong brought up divorce, he immediately launched a brutal beating and torture, leaving her permanently disabled...

Xie Tongtong basically has to live with a fecal bag now.

Broken ribs, a severed duodenum, intestinal obstruction, total loss of function in the left kidney—this is already an extremely serious condition.

On top of that, there are multiple injuries all over her body, head trauma...

Just the Grade II serious injuries alone—there are four of them!

Plus five Grade II minor injuries, and one slight injury....

In the interview video, Xie Tongtong said:

Xie Tongtong: "I’m really in too much pain. Meeting someone like Lin Helong is honestly the most, most, most painful thing that’s ever happened to me in this life."

"He beat me into this state, and he doesn’t regret it one bit. He even threatened me and my family, forbidding us to call the police, forbidding us from seeking legal help, and absolutely not allowing us to pursue his criminal liability."

"Look, this is the letter Lin Helong wrote me from the detention center. He even demanded that I write a letter of forgiveness. Even his father has been threatening my family..."

Xie Tongtong took out the letter.

[Xie Tongtong, I’m only going to tell you this once: hurry up and write the forgiveness letter and hand it to the cops. Otherwise, you know what kind of person I am. When I get out...

I’ll only be locked up a few years—eventually I’m getting out. You don’t really think I’ll be in prison for life, do you? Even life sentences can get out. Don’t make me come out.

As long as I get out of prison, just you wait. I won’t let you have a good life, and I won’t let your parents have a good life either. By then things won’t be this simple.

If it comes down to it I’ll just kill all of you myself. I’ll make it so you’re better off dead than alive. Don’t think that just because you move somewhere else I won’t be able to find you. With how advanced technology is now, you really think I can’t track you down?

Hahaha, if you still don’t write that forgiveness letter, then just you wait. When I get out I’ll kill you, and your parents can forget about running.

Remember, I’m only saying this once. You should know I’m not joking. I’ve never been someone who jokes around. Once I’m out, just you wait.]

This is the letter written by Lin Helong.

After seeing this letter, Xie Tongtong was terrified.

She couldn’t even sleep soundly.

Where could she possibly go?

Some people might say, Huaxia is so big... If she just moves somewhere else, how could Lin Helong possibly find her?

Xie Tongtong said, "At first I thought so too. I wanted a divorce, right? But Lin Helong refused and just kept beating me, beating me again and again... So I thought about leaving this place, running away by myself, running somewhere safe."

"But where could I go? I went to a friend’s place. Lin Helong didn’t know where my friend lived. I’d even fled to another province, so then what happened?"

"I thought I was safe..."

"Turns out, Lin Helong had put a tracker on me. He tracked me directly to my friend’s neighborhood and staked the place out every day."

"I have to go out at some point, right? I can’t just stay locked up in my friend’s home forever. I didn’t have a job before, and now I need money to live. I have to go out and work..."

"In the end, he found out where I worked..."

"So he just kept squatting in the neighborhood."

"Then one afternoon, when I was on my way back to my friend’s place, I saw him."

"He dragged me away on the spot..."

"Right on the street, he beat the crap out of me."

"Right after that, he dragged me to a hotel."

"Once we got to the hotel, he assaulted me."

"I was in so much pain, and so scared..."

"Even just the sexual assault already terrified me."

"I didn’t expect that he’d start drinking right there, and then start beating me again! Punching and kicking, hitting me over and over!"

"All I could do was scream..."

"The police came..."

"But the police had already come so many times. I really didn’t know what else I could do..."

"I ran away twice, and both times he caught me."

"I don’t know how he tracked me, how he kept finding me... but he did."

"Once he found me, he dragged me back, and my nightmare started all over again."

"Look at my injuries... these wounds. My left kidney has been completely destroyed."

"I’m completely in despair—utterly hopeless."

"I’ve never gone through anything this painful, this hopeless..."

"What can I do? You all say I should move somewhere else and start over..."

"But I’m scared. I’m terrified he’ll find me again."

"If I only send him to prison and don’t get him the death penalty, once he gets out, he will definitely find a way to kill me."

"Even if I flee to the ends of the earth, he’ll chase me to the ends of the earth. Am I supposed to spend the rest of my life living in this kind of fear?"

"If one day he really does find me again, what am I supposed to do? How can I possibly survive?"

"I don’t want this nightmare hanging over me every second of every day anymore..."

"And besides, you all know I’m no longer a normal person. I can’t go to work like a normal person anymore."

"He’s beaten me into this state. Right now I’m a patient. I have to keep going to the hospital for tests and treatment..."

"I’m permanently disabled now. I’ve become a disabled person..."

"You could also say that psychologically I’ve suffered enormous trauma and unbearable pain..."

"I’m not even a normal person mentally anymore. I’ve developed serious psychological problems. If you had to endure two years of this kind of torture, think about it—what kind of state would you be in?"

Xie Tongtong felt more and more helpless and anguished.

She went on, "The only thing keeping me going now is the thought of getting the death penalty for Lin Helong. If he doesn’t get the death penalty, I’ll never have a peaceful day in my life."

"Lin Helong has to get the death penalty—death is the only answer..."
