"I heard that he was in a serious car accident," Ou Yangdong said honestly in the interrogation room. "From the time I met him, he was in a vegetative state!
"He can't move, can't speak, and can only open his eyes occasionally. He has no consciousness at all. To put it bluntly, he's a living dead that can breathe!" Ou Yangdong recalled, "He has lived for so many years, not only because of the government's welfare policy, but also because of me!
"Feed him food and water, clean up his urine and feces, turn him over, pat his back, scrub his body, clean his mouth …
"Do you know how troublesome it is to insert a gastric tube into a vegetative patient? Without my care, he could not have lived so long. So, after he died, it wouldn't be too much for me to take his belongings, right?
"He has no relatives. For so many years, no one has come to visit him. Am I his only relative? But … I … I … I … I … "Ou Yangdong's eyes were filled with tears again. She said nervously," I really didn't know that he was a murderer!
"If I had known earlier, I … I … I … I … Why would I still serve him? I … Wu … "
"Calm down." Wu Xiumin quickly stopped him from crying. "Tell me about the videotape! Did you get those videotapes from Kang Ziqing's belongings? "
"Yes." Ou Yangdong wiped her tears and continued, "Every patient has their own locker. Old Kang also has one, and the key has always been kept by the welfare institute.
"After Old Kang died, we tried our best to contact his family, but to no avail. Therefore, we could only bury him in the name of the welfare institute out of humanitarianism.
"Hmm …" Ouyang Dong's face tensed up and he said awkwardly, "Old Kang's belongings in the cupboard will naturally be handled by the welfare institute. However, the Dean was so busy that he soon forgot about it.
"At that time, I was very short of money. I thought that there would be something valuable in Old Kang's cabinet, so I was hot-headed and secretly pried open his cabinet …"
"However," Ou Yangdong said helplessly, "there was only an old-fashioned leather bag in the cabinet. I rummaged through the bag, but I didn't find anything valuable, not even a coin!
"You can imagine how depressed I was. I don't know why either. Perhaps he was curious, or perhaps it was the principle of a thief not leaving empty-handed. Anyway, when he saw that there were a lot of small videotapes in the bag, he took one casually!
"To be honest, that kind of small videotape was shot with an old camera," Ou Yangdong continued. "After I got it back, there was no place to play it, and I couldn't watch it. So, I just threw it on the table for a long time.
"Then, I continued to work, work, work, until one day, I went to my buddy Xiao Fei's house to play. I remembered that he used to have an old-fashioned video recorder, so I borrowed it from him.
"But, to be honest, when I played the videotape on the VCR and saw the murder video, I didn't have any other ideas." Ou Yangdong made a helpless gesture again. "I heard that Old Kang was a movie producer before he became a vegetable, so these videotapes must have been filmed by his crew!
"The woman in the video isn't a celebrity, so the video is useless to me! At that time, I … "Ou Yangdong confirmed again," I really didn't think about anything else. That video … How could it be a real murder video? "
"Then …" After Wu Xiumin finished recording, she asked, "How did you decide to upload the video?"
"The NBA!" At this point, Ouyang Dong covered his face in shame and said a surprising term. "Last year, in the NBA playoffs, I bet on the peripherals and lost everything. I even ended up with a huge debt!
My girlfriend ran away, and my parents didn't care about me anymore. I even mortgaged my house!
"I even thought of selling my kidney!" Ou Yangdong sighed. "I was so poor that I had no choice but to try anything. All I could think about was how to get money to pay off my debt …
"But, petty theft is fine, but I can't do something as big as robbery and murder. I thought about it, and then I thought about the videotape that Old Kang left behind!
"I thought that although the videotape that I got didn't have any celebrities on it, he had so many videotapes in his bag!" Ou Yangdong said with her eyes wide open. "What if there were scenes of celebrities, or other scandals, nude scenes, or passionate scenes? Could I get some money from them?"
"So, I went back to the orphanage and took all of Old Kang's videotapes home. I watched every one of them, but …" Ou Yangdong shook her head. "You can imagine how disappointed I was. I didn't expect that all eleven videotapes would have the same story!"
"All of them are a psychopathic killer killing a girl, and among these girls, there isn't a single familiar face, let alone a celebrity!
"Don't you think I was stupid? Even then, I still didn't see anything wrong with the videotapes. I just thought … "He said innocently," Those videotapes were auditions for the actors, and they were filmed by the film crew!
"Whoever acts well will be cast in a real movie!"
Hearing this, Zhao Yu and the others in the monitoring room next door couldn't help but shiver. Ou Yangdong mentioned that there were eleven videotapes. In other words, the number of victims in the video murder case wasn't nine, but eleven?!
"But …" In the interrogation room, Ou Yangdong continued his confession. "Although I was very disappointed at first, I thought of a way to make money!"
"I often browsed those illegal websites, and I found that not only were there illegal gambling, but there were also a lot of strange posts. In those posts, people would occasionally post articles, pictures, or videos about special powers, strange things, and some of them could even make money!"
"So, combined with Old Kang's videotape, I thought of this idea."
"Although I thought that those videotapes were fake, there were a lot of nude scenes in the videos. Plus, with the gimmick of murder, I thought that I might be able to make some money!"
"So, I tried to publish it on the website!" Ou Yangdong said. "But, I knew that those were illegal, and if I was caught, the consequences would be severe."
"So, I learned some safe posting tutorials online, and after some research, I posted the video on the website!"
"To be safe, I also bought someone else's ID card through my friend, and opened a bank account …"
"Finally, as you must know," he said, spreading his hands. "I did make a lot of money. I didn't expect that there would be so many people willing to spend money to watch the videos I posted!"
"So, I quickly found a few other illegal websites and earned even more money …"
"Why didn't you upload all eleven videos at once?" Wu Xiumin asked.
"That was what I thought at first," Ou Yangdong said. "But, I did some research on the website. Those videos made money because of the curiosity of the viewers. If I uploaded all of them at once, it would reduce the curiosity of the viewers."
"On the contrary, if I made the videos into a series and uploaded them after a while, it would increase their anticipation!"
