Feng Jing felt that it was only normal for Yin Tao to be frightened. Many people don’t think about it when an incident happens, only to find that they continue to be disturbed after some time. It would be dreadful if she ended up with PTSD.
“Brother Feng, I’m really fine.” When Yin Tao heard Feng Jing mention psychiatrist, she suddenly thought of Xu Shan from the orphanage. “But I know a child. She seems to have a serious psychological problem. Can we find time to meet your doctor friend?”
“Child?” Feng Jing nodded and asked Yin Tao, “How old is the child? What are the symptoms?’
Yin Tao briefly recounted Xu Shan’s matter to Feng Jing and finally asked him about the fire Xu Shan’s parents were caught in.
“Brother Feng, do you know about this? It happened some time ago. Although it wasn’t handled by our Cheng Ping branch, the incident happened not far from us.”
“I think I heard from Xiao Ji that the only survivor of the Linjiang Branch case was a six or seven-year-old girl.” Feng Jing remembered that when he was chatting with Ji Yu, he seemed to have mentioned that the police officer who picked up this case was Ji Yu’s university classmate. When Ji Yu went to the Linjiang Branch to collect the case file, he had mentioned it.
Yin Tao was pleasantly surprised that Feng Jing knew about Xu Shan’s parents’ case. This would be of great help in her future investigations.
“That’s right, it’s that little girl who survived. Her name is Xu Shan. She’s in the orphanage now. Her behavior is very strange. I want to see what I can do to help her.” Yin Tao adored Xu Shan very much. Not only was she obedient and adorable, but her background also aroused Yin Tao’s sympathy.
“Alright, if you want to take her to see a psychiatrist, I’ll go with you. Anyway, Meng Heng’s case is gradually becoming clearer. Our bureau has solved a difficult problem.” Feng Jing did not find it troublesome to go with her. Kindness was one of Yin Tao’s traits.
Back at the dormitory, when Bai Luo saw the gauze on Yin Tao’s neck, she anxiously went forward to check. “I heard from Ji Yu that you’re injured. Why is it so serious? You even injured your neck?’
Yin Tao smiled awkwardly. She looked at the anxious Bai Luo and explained,
“It’s fine. It’s just a small cut. Nothing serious.”
“Seriously, there was a roomful of male police officers. Why did they let you get injured?” Bai Luo checked Yin Tao all over to see if she was hurt anywhere else. She was relieved to find no other injuries.
“No one expected Meng Heng to create a secret chamber at home just to conduct surgeries. Yin Tao knew that if not for the fact that everyone was too taken aback when they discovered the secret chamber, Meng Heng wouldn’t have had the chance to get near her.
“That person is a complete lunatic. If we could understand his thoughts, we would all become psycho murderers.”
Bai Luo was furious at the mention of Meng Heng. Not only were his methods gruesome, he had also caused her to to work through many nights. No amount of facial masks could make up for the damage done to her skin .
“However, this case is about to be closed. Otherwise, Chief Wang will go crazy. He even called my master over to talk about it yesterday. We have had too many cases at Cheng Ping branch recently. If this goes on, the city bureau will be looking into it.”
Yin Tao also felt that there had been a lot of things going on in the branch recently. Captain Chen had been called over for questioning by his superiors many times, so he should be under a lot of pressure.
“By the way, how’s Zhou Nan’s dismemberment case? Has he still not confessed?” Yin Tao remembered that Zhou Nan, who had a conflict with Cheng Fei, seemed to be very difficult to deal with. He was the typical kind of scoundrel who wouldn’t confess to the crime unless there was concrete evidence.
‘What else can he do? He can only be released after the remand period is over.”
Bai Luo shook her head helplessly and said to Yin Tao, ‘That Zhou Nan is very smart. He insists that the police don’t have enough evidence and won’t cooperate with the investigation at all. Moreover, he seems to have hired a rather powerful lawyer who knew how to exploit many loopholes. The police can’t do anything about it. Even ifwe know that he’s definitely not innocent, we can’t continue to keep him in custody at the police station.”
Yin Tao felt that in order to convict someone like Zhou Nan, the black market must be removed. Otherwise, with such a powerful support networkin the background, hooligans like Zhou Nan would only blatantly ignore the law.
“By the way, Xiaotao, have you seen Dr. Su’s cousin, Su Yan?” Bai Luo suddenly thought of something interesting and asked Yin Tao with a smile.
‘Yes, I’ve met her. I bumped into her and Xiaxia and even went to the canteen with her for a meal.” Yin Tao felt that there seemed to be a hidden meaning in
Bai Luo’s words.. She asked, “Why? Which group has Su Yan been assigned to?”
