The Dormitory Nightmare: A Journey into Darkness

Welcome back to RealpeopleRealCrimes.

Today, we delve into two chilling poisoning cases that reveal unspeakable cruelty lurking behind the facade of trusted relationships. The first case takes us to a prestigious high school in China, where seven female students met a tragic end, and the second leads us to a quiet village in Taiwan, where a seemingly friendly dinner resulted in unexpected disaster.

A Prestigious High School’s Hidden Danger

Located 25 miles southwest of Tianjin, China, Jian High School is renowned as one of the top academic institutions in the Tianjin region. With a history of sending numerous students to esteemed universities, this school is a beacon of academic excellence. However, an unimaginable tragedy struck its dormitory.

On December 23, 1998, at around 12:10 a.m., a female student from room 113 returned after a late-night study session. As she prepared for bed, an overwhelming stench permeated the air, leading her to knock on her friends’ doors. Convinced something was wrong, she reported the odor to the dorm supervisor and returned to her room, unable to shake off the discomforting smell.

The next morning, the unsettling atmosphere escalated as she discovered the horrifying truth: all seven girls from room 113 were dead, their bodies twisted in agony, signs of a harrowing demise scattered across the floor. What could lead to such a horrifying fate?

An Investigation Unveils a Sinister Plot

Immediate investigations indicated a possible mass poisoning. Initially suspected to be caused by chemical exposure, autopsies confirmed it was pesticide poisoning. The level of toxicity indicated that the victims had ingested nearly double the lethal dose. Disturbingly, only one girl remained alive: Sun Ru, who seemed untroubled by the tragedy unfolding around her.

Sun Ru’s calm demeanor drew suspicion. The authorities found fingerprints on the cups found in the dorm room, each one leading back to her. When questioned, she eventually revealed the chilling truth: a suicide pact orchestrated by her best friend, Liu Schwang Shan, who had been desperate and pregnant. Liu had lured their friends into consuming the poisoned drink under false pretenses.

The Sweet Taste of Deception

According to Sun Ru, together they concocted a plan to share the pesticide, convincing their unsuspecting friends it was a health tonic. Liu convinced the girls to drink it, claiming it would protect them against tuberculosis. What transpired next was heartbreaking; terror gripped the dorm room as the poison took hold, leading to their agonizing deaths.

Sun Ru's testimony revealed a dark, complex relationship. Though she handed the poison to her friends, Liu orchestrated the tragedy. The age-old question currently remains—did Liu mastermind the crime, or was Sun Ru equally complicit in this horrific act?

Justice or Injustice? The Fate of Sun Ru

Despite being classified as a minor, Sun Ru was sentenced to life imprisonment for her part in the tragedy. In 2013, she was released after a 15-year sentence, but the emotional burden of the lives lost and her role in the poisoning has left questions lingering in the air. The nation mourned for the innocents lost while struggling to comprehend the chilling betrayal that unfolded within their own community.

A Dinner Gathering Turns Deadly: The Taiwan Tragedy

As we shift to the second case, the ambiance appears far more mundane yet eerily deceptive.

An Evening of Friendship Sour Turns Fatal

On July 5, 2011, in a rural home in Yilan County, Taiwan, a simple gathering took a deadly turn. Host Lin Gini and his wife Wang Mayong welcomed friends Tang Fang and Wu Xiao Jen for a night of revelry, unaware that a sinister plan brewed beneath the surface.

As the night progressed, the mood shifted dramatically; Wu clutched her stomach, and soon all four guests succumbed to excruciating pain. Rushed to the hospital, they tragically passed away before receiving timely treatment. Investigators initially suspected food poisoning, yet something felt amiss—the victims showed symptoms inconsistent with typical cases.

Deliberate Poisoning: The Unraveling Mystery

Investigations led to a shocking discovery: combined with botulism bacteria, a toxic substance known as ethylene chlorohydrin, widely used in agriculture, was present in their bodies. The mystery deepened as authorities pieced together it was a deliberate act of poisoning orchestrated by Joe Mingfu, Wang’s ex-boyfriend, consumed by grief and jealousy over her new relationship.

Under increasing pressure, Joe confessed to lacing a bottle of rice wine with the toxic substance as a revenge plot against Wang and her new partner, unaware that it would lead to the demise of two innocent friends.

Consequences and Dark Yet Intriguing Revelations

Joe’s chilling confession unveiled a twisted narrative, exacerbated by this dual poisoning—two deadly agents conjuring irreversible consequences during a benign social gathering. His sentencing to life imprisonment serves as a reminder that jealousy and revenge can carve a path to unimaginable devastation.

Reflecting on Betrayal and Trust

These two harrowing cases serve as chilling reminders of how trust can turn deadly in the face of betrayal. We must remain vigilant to the hidden dangers that may lurk behind the masks of friendship and familiarity. As we close this chapter, let us reflect on the fragility of life and the depth of human relationships that often hide dark, unpredictable corners.
