Captain Lu was aloof again today.

Chapter 100 Questioning
When a carnival begins, no one cares whether the people involved are laughing or crying, sad or happy.

All they want is fleeting happiness, even though that happiness is built on the suffering of others.

As long as the pain doesn't affect them, they have no inhibitions.

Sun Hao, the instigator, suddenly chimed in: "Being ugly is a minor issue. I have a friend who knows some inside information. I heard she has some incurable disease. Isn't that dragging down Jiang Bancao? If I were her, I would just commit suicide instead of shamelessly clinging to her."

As the discussion grew increasingly heated, the class group administrator finally stepped in to mediate: "Stop talking badly about them behind their backs. It's pointless. Just go about your business. They're just having a nice relationship and haven't bothered you. Why say such hurtful things?"

The belated voice of justice brought this heated discussion to an end.

When Jiang Yinian saw the message, the group had already returned to silence. He felt frustrated, but did not reply, as he did not want to cause another round of discussion.

The high school class group was usually quiet and unused, only occasionally becoming lively, and he never thought of deleting the chat history.

One day, he accompanied Yin Hailan to a psychological counseling session. After they returned, Yin Hailan seemed to be in a bad state. He was worried about her, so he stayed at Yin's house.

When he came out of the shower, he saw Yin Hailan playing on his phone.

There was nothing wrong with her expression at the time.

The next day, he went to work as usual. When he returned home, he saw Yin Hailan lying in a pool of blood.

He found it hard to accept this reality and couldn't understand why Yin Hailan would suddenly commit suicide.

Later, Jiang Yinian discovered that there were several new messages in the high school class group that he hadn't read, but which indicated that Yin Hailan had seen the messages and opened them.

He easily connected all the dots.

If it weren't for Sun Hao, Yin Hailan wouldn't have been so provoked and wouldn't have ended her life in such an extreme way.

He hated Sun Hao, hated him for his careless words that hurt him, and hated him for destroying his happiness.

At the end of July, Sun Hao learned of Yin Hailan's death from Jiang Yinian. He felt terrible and apologized to Jiang Yinian, but this only made Jiang Yinian angrier.

The dead cannot be brought back to life, and even if Sun Hao were to go bankrupt, it would not be enough to quell his anger.

What he wants in return is his life.

He knew that Sun Hao was pursuing a master's degree at Tangshi University, so he had been secretly following Sun Hao, waiting for an opportunity to act.

Finally, his opportunity arrived.

In the early hours of September 13, after leaving his dormitory, Sun Hao deliberately avoided the surveillance cameras and sneaked to Lovers' Grove to burn paper money for Yin Hailan.

His remorse and regret did not dispel the hatred in Jiang Yinian's heart.

He took advantage of Sun Hao kneeling and praying to launch a surprise attack on him.

Jiang Yinian works out regularly and is already strong and healthy, so it wouldn't be difficult for him to subdue Sun Hao, who often stays up all night playing games, let alone attack him from behind.

The fingerprints on the toilet were left when he held Sun Hao down and pushed his head into the water.

“I never thought about cleaning up the fingerprints, and I wasn’t afraid of the police arresting me. At first, I didn’t want to admit it, I just wanted to buy some more time to spend with Uncle Yin and Aunt Qin.”

Jiang Yinian looked utterly defeated, and slumped weakly against the back of her chair.

Yin Hailan's death was a devastating blow to him.

Wei Qingsong took a sip of water, looked up at him, and said, "Haven't you thought about your own family?"

He paused slightly, his expression complicated: "It seems Uncle Yin and Aunt Qin didn't mention it to you."

"Hmm?" Wei Qingsong frowned slightly, looking at him with suspicion.

“My parents divorced when I was very young and each started a new family. Although I still live with my mom in the old house, which is next to Lanlan’s family, she doesn’t really care about me.”

“When I was in school, my peers would look forward to going home as soon as school was over. But I preferred going to Lanlan’s house. Her aunt and uncle have always been very kind to me. In my heart, they are my closest family.”

No wonder, for him, Yin Hailan brought him not only emotional admiration, but also the warmth of family.

Nevertheless, Wei Qingsong still disagreed with his actions in killing Sun Hao.

"In fact, you yourself can't be sure that Yin Hailan's death is definitely related to Sun Hao, right?"

No one knows whether Yin Hailan actually saw that chat log.

"Isn't this obvious enough?" Jiang Yinian's pupils suddenly widened, unable to understand Wei Qingsong's question.

“No, as you said yourself, Yin Hailan’s expression at the time didn’t seem wrong.” Wei Qingsong paused. “Of course, I’m not trying to excuse Sun Hao, but I just think that Lanlan’s death was indeed very strange.”

"You just mentioned that you accompanied Lanlan to her therapy session that day, but she didn't seem to be in a good mood afterward. I find that a bit strange. Why did her condition worsen after the therapy session?"

Is this reasonable?

Regardless of the school of thought, psychological counseling should aim to make the client feel relaxed.

If the client experiences negative emotions, then something must have gone wrong during the consultation process.

Jiang Yinian seemed stunned as well: "I didn't think that much about it, I just thought she was tired."

Wei Qingsong's eyes flickered slightly, but his face remained expressionless: "I'm just offering a reasonable guess. In any case, Yin Hailan's cause of death was suicide, and everything has already been settled. There's no point in investigating further. However, I still hope you can tell me frankly which psychological counseling institution Yin Hailan went to."

Jiang Yinian didn't hesitate for long before answering, "Mu'an Psychological Counseling Center, her counselor is named Ao Zi'an."

Wei Qingsong silently memorized the name.

Whether it was just her overthinking or not, she always felt that there might be something fishy about Yin Hailan's death.

However, as she said, more than two months have passed, and everything is difficult to verify. Many truths have been buried underground with the yellow sand.

I wonder if those secrets will ever see the light of day again.

The 9.13 Tangshi University murder case was successfully solved, which pleased Director Wang greatly. He verbally commended the criminal police officers of the Municipal Bureau.

Watching Director Wang's dashing departure, Chen Jin clicked his tongue and shook his head: "We've been working so hard lately, Director Wang doesn't even treat us properly."

Lu Jingming glanced at him indifferently: "You can go to him and make your demands, and see how Director Wang will teach you a lesson."

Although Director Wang is easygoing and diplomatic, he is ultimately a decent person. In his eyes, whether it's working overtime or staying up late, as long as it's for the people, it's his duty.

Wearing this police uniform means taking on the corresponding responsibilities.

"I was just saying it offhand," Chen Jin said, scratching his head and chuckling awkwardly.

"Alright, Chen Jin, don't be too disappointed. Although Director Wang is stingy, I've prepared afternoon tea for everyone. Come and have some together later," Wei Qingsong said with a smile.

"Sister Wei is so generous!" Chen Jin immediately beamed, glancing towards Wei Qingsong. Looking at the empty conference room, he asked in confusion, "Sister Wei ordered takeout?"

Wei Qingsong shrugged and raised an eyebrow, keeping everyone in suspense: "I guess so."
