"Are we really going to divorce?" Chen Danlei, a Ph.D. in the United States, looked at her husband He Lei who was sleeping sideways and said in a low voice.
"But I want you to be with me forever..." Chen Danlei shed tears, took out the silencer that had been prepared from under the pillow, and shot her husband in the back of the head.
He Lei had no time to struggle and never had the chance to wake up again. Chen Danlei hugged her husband and fell asleep.
She hasn't held her husband like this for a long time, as warm as she just fell in love. It seems that her husband will never leave again, and they will not divorce.
She hugged her husband for 7 days and 7 nights, and It was not until the neighbor came over to ask if there was any meat that was expired and was too smelly that she remembered that it was time to deal with her husband's body.
She made an appointment with a boy named "Jack" online and paid him $2,000. put He Lei's body into a black plastic bag in pieces, then put it in a trunk, and transported it to the abandoned parking lot by car.
Chen Danlei discarded the car and her husband's body in the parking lot and fled back to China.
Why did Chen Danlei kill her husband? If he hates him, why would he sleep with his body for 7 days and 7 nights? Let us learn about this murder case of a doctor studying in the United States that shocked the whole country.
Unfortunate original family, with a sensitive personality
Chen Danlei was born in Chengdu, Sichuan in 1977. His father is a university professor and his mother is an ordinary worker.
parents got married without a relationship. Chen’s father always loved Chen’s mother and did not think she was inferior.
But Chen's mother often feels that she is not worthy of her husband. Especially when she sees her husband chatting and laughing with other female teachers in college, Chen's mother goes crazy and asks her husband if there is someone outside?
At the beginning, Chen's father would still patiently answer his wife and reduce contact with other female teachers.
But Chen's mother was still worried. She was getting more and more strict in her husband's control. She stared at her husband's every move every day. If she felt something was wrong, she would be suspicious and lose her temper.
Chen's father gradually lost patience with Chen's mother's unreasonable act and became more and more indifferent to Chen's mother. The family was a life-and-death quarrel in the family, which made Chen Danlei feel particularly depressed.
She often locks herself in the room. Only by diving into studying can she calm herself down. She also inherits her father's IQ and her grades are always among the best. The score of
can bring her the attention of her teachers, the envy of her classmates, and the attention of her parents, which seems to have become her happiest thing.
However, due to the poor family atmosphere, Chen Danlei formed a gloomy personality, and the classmates all admired her and dared not get close to her.
She doesn’t like to communicate with others, nor can she integrate into the circle of her peers. Only by studying harder can she drive out this sense of emptiness of loneliness and lack of love.
In the end, she was admitted to Department of Chemistry at Tsinghua University . She entered the university campus with ecstasy and was full of confidence to welcome the new campus life, but reality hit her hard.
Chen Danlei had excellent grades and was selected as a class cadre, but because of her depression, she has been used to being alone since she was a child, and it is difficult to adapt to the work of class cadres who need to communicate with their classmates frequently.
He often had conflicts with his classmates, and then the position of class cadres was removed. No one could enter her heart in real life.
In this lonely environment, the news of her parents' divorce was even more blowing. She locked herself up again, and people outside could not come in and out by herself.
This made her study harder and spend time in the library every day.
The influence of her parents is deeply rooted, and the sweet love is broken all over
By chance, she picked up a pen and met the love of her life, but this love pushed the boy into the abyss.
A male classmate hurriedly searched for a pen. Chen Danlei returned the pen he picked up, but was attracted by his sunny and handsome appearance, and felt an indescribable heartbeat.
The boy is He Lei, who is a classmate of Chen Danlei and a student of the Department of Mechanical Engineering at Tsinghua University. has a cheerful personality, is humorous and funny, and likes to deal with people.
He Lei's lively and cheerful personality is exactly the opposite of Chen Danlei's favorite to be alone, but it is precisely because of this that the two are deeply attracted by each other's characteristics.
Because of a pen, they slowly got to know each other slowly. The two naturally got together and determined their relationship.
But He Lei seems to be reluctant to talk about his girlfriend with outsiders. The two have not been together for long. Once He Lei’s friend joked, is Chen Danlei his girlfriend? He Lei smiled but said nothing.
But in the eyes of sensitive Chen Danlei, he did not want to admit his relationship, which laid the hidden danger of insufficient security in her heart.
, and as He Lei talked and laughed with other girls, she felt an indescribable jealousy in her heart.
But the sweet love in the early stage diluted all the contradictions, and the two encouraged each other in their studies and made progress together. After graduating from
, Chen Danlei won a full scholarship graduate student from Purdue University in the United States, and He Lei was also admitted to the postgraduate student of our school.
But at this time, Chen Danlei was already very dependent on He Lei. He persuaded He Lei to marry him so that he could go to the United States with her as her family to study.
He Lei also loved Chen Danlei deeply and readily agreed to Chen Danlei's request. After the two held their wedding in China, they went to the United States.
At the beginning of the wedding, the two lived a harmonious life. Chen Danlei's full scholarship was enough for their expenses in the United States. Although they were not rich, they were happy and sweet.
Three months later, He Lei also got admitted to Purdue University in the United States with his own strength.
With He Lei's proficient social skills and cheerful personality, he quickly got along with Chinese students from Purdue University in the United States, and often made appointments to go out for parties.
This made Chen Danlei very uncomfortable. Her husband spent less and less time with her, and she felt that her husband could still live a good life without her, but he was her whole world.
She was unwilling to give up. She hoped that her husband would spend more time with her, instead of accompanying her friends whenever she had time. However, He Lei felt that socialization was important and needed to spend time to manage it.
The conflict in the character of the two became more and more intense, and the conflict became more and more obvious.
Once, the two went out fishing with their friends, but Chen Danlei fell and injured because she fought for the fishing rod with He Lei. He Lei did not bandage her wounds and caught fish on the side.
Many details made Chen Danlei feel insecure, and the two lacked communication and understanding, which led to the increasing problems of the two and the increasing quarrels.
On Christmas 2004, Chen Danlei hopes to celebrate the festival with He Lei at home, but He Lei has already made an appointment with a friend to go out for a party.
The two quarreled over this matter, and the words of scolding each other became increasingly ugly. He Lei said: "Look at the wives of those international students, who are like you, you are the worst one."
Chen Danlei completely collapsed after hearing this sentence. She could no longer control her emotions. She picked up the thing and smashed it to He Lei like crazy. She also picked up the fruit knife and stabbed He Lei in the abdomen with one knife.
Blood gushed out, and Chen Danlei reacted and quickly threw the knife down and sent He Lei to the hospital.
Fortunately, he did not hit the vital point. He Lei stopped the bleeding with the help of the doctor, but the doctor suspected that it was caused by 's family violence against . Although the two of them strongly denied it, the doctor still called the police.
Domestic violence is not a trivial matter in the United States. police quickly confirmed that it was Chen Danlei who stabbed He Lei and arrested her for attempted murder.
He Lei asked all his relatives and friends around him to borrow money, and finally raised enough bail to rescue Chen Danlei from prison.
The school also fired Chen Danlei for this incident. Now Chen Danlei has nothing, only He Lei is left. She focuses more on He Lei, just like her mother cares about her father, and He Lei can't breathe.
In the small things in life, the two have many conflicts and often make a big fuss. He Lei has had enough of his life with Chen Danlei, and remembered the last time Chen Danlei was out of control and stabbed herself, and felt very scared. filed for a divorce to Chen Danlei.
Chen Danlei felt that the sky was about to fall, and she never expected that her beloved husband would actually propose to divorce her.
At this time, bad luck also came across the ocean. The news that her mother died of depression after divorce made her collapse again.
She was afraid that she would have nothing like her mother, and she would die of depression after divorce. After He Lei left her, she would definitely find her lover to live happily.
She tried to win back her husband, but He Lei was already discouraged and had decided to leave.
She looked at her life with sadness. Since she couldn't let her husband change her mind and had no reason to live, she decided to settle it with her husband.
She quietly bought back and silenced, waiting for the arrival of that day.
In the early morning of August 20, 2005, He Lei fell asleep when he got home after attending the party.
"Are we really going to get a divorce?" Chen Danlei, a Ph.D. in the United States, whispered to her husband and He Lei who were sleeping sideways.
"But I want you to be with me forever..." Chen Danlei shed tears, took out the soundproofing from under the pillow, and shot her husband's head with a shot...
Then she slept with her husband's body for 7 days and 7 nights, and then hired someone to dismember her body and transported her husband's body to an abandoned parking lot before fleeing back to China.
fell into the French Open
On the day of returning to China, Chen Danlei was wearing a man's clothes, cutting her hair short, and holding a man's passport. Such a move aroused the suspicion of customs personnel.
After cross-examination, Chen Danlei told the fact that he killed He Lei and fled back to China. At the same time, the US police found He Lei's rotten body in an abandoned parking lot.
After investigation by police from both countries, Chen Danlei's crime was quickly confirmed, and she was sentenced to death for two years on suspicion of intentional homicide.
However, in 2019, Chen Danlei was sentenced to life imprisonment for good labor reform in prison, and then reduced his sentence to 19 years, and later reduced it by another one and 6 months. If nothing unexpected happens, Chen Danlei will be released in 2025.
Is the original family an original sin?
Chen Danlei's pessimistic personality, paranoid behavior, and easily collapsed personality seem to be caused by a tragic original family, and the misfortune of one family involves the fate of another family.
He Lei's departure is a pain that the He family can never erase. Chen Danlei may really love her husband, but her way of love is extreme and her psychological distortion.
The original family is a reality that cannot be changed, but this is not an excuse for us to hurt ourselves and others.
hopes that all children with unfortunate original families can break out of the cage of the original family and bravely accept the truth, goodness and beauty of real life, rather than always living in the shadow of the original family.
