Su Hui listened carefully, confirming that he had not misheard.
Indeed, she had visited the 372 Psychological Research Institute.
From the images, it could be deduced that this was when Chen Xuexian was in her early teens, clearly not yet an adult.
In the photos that Lu Junchi and Su Hui obtained from Chen Xuexians aunts house, Chen Xuexian appeared to be quite young.
This being the forty-ninth ti, it indicated that she had been visiting this psychological research institute for several years.
If forty-nine represents the number of visits, then 132 could be Chen Xuexians identification number. Many people have co here before.
Su Hui squinted his eyes, tilted his head, and tried hard to hear the conversation in the video.
The others also remained silent, watching the contents of the recording without saying a word.
The girl across hesitated for a mont and spoke with a trembling voice, Hello
Let see the woman flipped through the records. You initially ca here because while playing a ga, you helped one boy push another child down a dry well Later, you stole a book from a classmate and placed it on another students desk, provoking them.
Chen Xuexian murmured in agreent and then whispered, I just thought it was fun.
Its okay. Im not a doctor. Even if I know these things, I wont bla you or think youre strange. You did it on purpose. Did you want them to fight? the woman asked.
Chen Xuexian nodded, Ive seen the animal kingdom, where two wolves fight for the position of alpha. One of them tore open the others belly
Do you want to see the sa thing? the woman asked.
Chen Xuexian nodded again.
The woman asked, Has anything happened around you recently?
Chen Xuexian lowered her head and said, Yes
The female doctor asked, What happened?
Chen Xuexian spoke but perhaps because of the poor audio, it was difficult to hear.
The female doctor brought out a doll and said, Can you show what he did on the doll?
Chen Xuexian nodded. From the angle of the screen, she undressed the doll, and the other actions were unclear.
The female doctor paused and asked, Did you tell any other adults about this?
Chen Xuexian shook her head and then nodded, saying softly, I told my mom. She doesnt want to talk about it. I often have nightmares, and when I wake up, my heart beats fast.
Su Hui watched the video, furrowing his brow lightly. Suddenly, he found the answer he had been searching for. In Chen Xuexians case, he had always felt that there was a missing trigger in her psychological changes.
Now he knewit was premature intrusion.
The female doctor took out a set of brushes and paper, saying, You can draw those things.
Chen Xuexian obediently complied, drawing on the paper. Then she looked up and asked, Sister, he said he likes , but Im scared. Is this what adults call love?
The female doctor shook her head. No, this isnt love. Its just a form of need.
The female doctor quickly obtained the drawings Chen Xuexian had made, then inquired about her family situation. Finally, she took out a ntal assessnt form for Chen Xuexian to fill out and showed her so pictures and read a passage from a book.
After about half an hour of conversation, Chen Xuexian left, and the screen went dark.
After a while, the screen brightened again, and a figure wearing a mask and hat walked in and sat across from the female doctor.
Judging from the physique, this person might be a middle-aged man. He spoke and communicated with the female doctor, How is Chen Xuexians ntal condition?
The forty-ninth psychological evaluation has been completed. Currently, the psychological assessnt is at Grade A, relatively stable, but she is a potential high-risk individual. However
The female doctor hesitated, took out a file from the desk, along with a few CT scan images of the brain, and finally showed the man the girls drawing. It seems she has experienced assault. Should we report this to the police or communicate with her parents?
The man examined everything and pondered for a mont before saying, No need. We are neither the police nor her therapists. Our mission and purpose are to docunt her psychological changes as an ordinary person. Besides, I believe that with the onset of adolescence, we can further induce her
Upon hearing this, everyone in the room beca indignant, and Lu Junchi clenched his right fist.
These people, under the guise of research, knew about these things but didnt report them. In their eyes, those people were nothing more than test subjects.
They were just like that, watching a life slip into the abyss.
The female doctor remained silent for a mont and said, In comparison, I am more concerned about Visitor 107. As she spoke, she pulled out a stack of docunts. I believe his level of danger is at S
Qiao Ze pressed pause and then zood in on the image. There was a blurry na on top, and he used software to enhance the image, revealing a three-word na, the first word being sowhat complex.
There was also a drawing next to it, with easily identifiable contenta womans head.
Lu Junchi said, Based on the information, it seems like its Fu Yunchus
Everything finally connected. Fu Yunchu and Chen Xuexian were indeed both forr visitors of 372. Its possible that among the killers they encountered before, so had also been here.
The female doctor wanted to say sothing, but the man interrupted, saying, You dont have to worry too much. We will make arrangents.
Afterward, they discussed their work for a while. The female doctor seed to have finished her work. She tiredly took off her mask, walked over to the cara, and pressed the pause button, freezing the fra on her face.
The entire video lasted about forty minutes, and after watching it, everyone remained silent.
Su Hui lowered his head. He wore a slightly thick white shirt, followed by a casual slim suit and a coat. Despite that, in this air-conditioned room, goosebumps still ford on his arms
It wasnt a terrifying scene, but it sent chills down his spine.
The people in the office fell into silence. Finally, Yao Fei reacted first, clapping his hands and saying, Congratulations, youve finally obtained crucial evidence.
The significance of this information, brought out from the fire scene years ago, was extraordinary.
Without this evidence, all they had was the testimonies of the parties involved, but this piece could be considered direct evidence.
They couldnt determine the specific ti of this recorded video, but based on the scene, it was over a decade ago.
Moreover, this footage was directly related to the individuals they knew.
Su Hui recalled the article he had written back then, and this video recording was several years older than his article.
Why did this mysterious psychological research institute disappear because of a big fire? Did they escape during the fire?
Su Hui squinted his eyes and looked at the woman on the screen, trying to see more clearly. I feel like Ive seen this woman sowhere before
After taking off the mask, he could see the womans face clearly. She had long hair and delicate features, appearing very gentle.
Lu Junchi asked, Have you seen her before?
Su Hui lowered his head and thought, searching his mory. Then he shook his head. I dont think so.
The footage was over a decade old, and if this woman was still alive, she would be between thirty and forty years old. He didnt recall such a woman in his impression.
But he couldnt explain why this woman seed sowhat familiar.
Qiao Ze analyzed, Although we only see the back of that man, he feels more like the person behind the scenes.
Lu Junchi nodded. Analyze the video data, including identity information, and see if we can gather any more information.
Su Hui pondered for a mont and added, I suspect that the people in the video may have changed their identities. You can also investigate individuals of similar age and gender in Huadu or nearby who are involved in psychological research.
Then Lu Junchi instructed, Qiao Ze, quickly convert this data into a digital format and save an electronic copy before submitting it to the evidence room.
He lowered his head and whispered in a voice only two people could hear, Make multiple copies of the disc. Submit one, keep one in the archive, and each of you, Qiao Ze and Old Qu, make a backup copy. Give the remaining copy.
Obtaining this disc was sowhat fortuitous, and if the other party found out, they would definitely want to destroy it.
Electronic files are easily deletable and unreliable. The best thod is to keep multiple copies.
They couldnt confirm whether there were people from the other side in the General Bureau besides Deputy Director Wang. Such crucial evidence must not encounter any issues.
Qiao Ze replied, Understood.
Then Lu Junchi went to find Director Tan and showed him this footage as well.
Director Tan was also extrely shocked after watching the footage.
The two of them discussed the next direction of investigation and the allocation of personnel.
Director Tan planned to have four sketch artists and so police officers conduct a specialized investigation into Case 372, while the Major Cris Unit would dispatch personnel as needed to handle other recent major cases.
After having lunch, Lu Junchi assigned the tasks and in the afternoon, he had Qiao Ze and Zheng Bai drive a car while he drove Su Hui to the Yuqing Clinic.
The Yuqing Clinic wasnt far from the General Bureau, and in no ti, the two cars were parked in the downstairs parking lot.
Lu Junchi applied the brakes and said, I suddenly feel that everything we have investigated so far on this road is related to psychology and so related content If youre going to the clinic today, its best to be cautious.
Perhaps it was because they had just watched that video segnt, but Lu Junchi was sowhat wary of these psychological matters, and the female doctor in the image reminded him of Yang Yuqing.
Su Hui pondered for a mont and replied, Ive been here many tis before, and every ti it was Yang Yuqing who treated . She has been quite helpful. You guys are investigating nearby, so there shouldnt be any problems
Last ti when An Yuci was involved, the police had thoroughly checked all the clinic doctors information and confird that there were no suspects. It should be safe here.
I always feel that these psychology people, just like the criminal psychology sketch artists, have their own circle, and they also influence each other, Lu Junchi insisted. Its better for you to set up an ergency contact on your phone.
I already have. Just press the switch five tis. Su Hui pressed the switch a few tis, and Lu Junchis phone imdiately rang beside him.
After Lu Junchi hung up the call, Su Hui added, But I think youre right. Its still necessary to be cautious. Ill call you on the phone once Im inside.
Yang Yuqing was a frail woman and his psychotherapist. Su Hui reflected that he shouldnt let his guard down because of this. Lu Junchis approach was correct; it was an exceptional ti, and he needed to protect himself.
Lu Junchi nodded, finally feeling relieved.
As the conversation reached this point, Lu Junchi was about to open the car door but then rembered sothing. He asked Su Hui, By the way, do you know why the Yuqing Clinic is the cooperative clinic of the Huadu General Bureau?
Su Hui shook his head and asked, Why? Are there any screening criteria?
Since he joined the Huadu General Bureau, it seed that the cooperative clinic for the police had always been the Yuqing ntal Clinic, where all the officers psychological evaluations and subsequent treatnts took place. The newly joined officers took it for granted without questioning the reason.
Lu Junchi explained, I also heard Old Qu ntion it in the past. It seems that Yang Yuqings father was a forr senior police officer in the municipal bureau who sacrificed himself in a mission. Yang Yuqing studied psychology and opened the Yuqing Clinic. The old leaders wanted to take care of her, so they placed the psychological assessnts of the officers here.
Then Ill ask her when I go in. Su Hui took out his phone, dialed the number, and hid the phone. Lu Junchi put on a wireless earphone, and the two of them finally got out of the car and went inside.
The psychological clinic was as usual, and Nurse Jin Qiu received them. She quickly finished the registration and pointed, saying, Mr. Su, please go in first. Dr. Yang is preparing and will be with you shortly.
Su Hui followed the other nurses inside, entering the sa consultation room as before. He had been here too many tis, and in Yang Yuqings absence, Su Hui did what he always did. He placed his cane aside and lay down on the treatnt chair.
Soft music filled the room, and the familiar environnt unintentionally cald Su Hui down.
Suddenly, he caught a strong fragrance in the air, reminiscent of rich fruity scent, pleasant but sowhat pungent.
Su Hui felt that Yang Yuqing must have changed the aromatherapy on the patients pillow.
However, the scent was overpowering, almost stinging his eyes. He blinked and closed his eyes.
The music in the room continued to play.
Su Hui breathed quietly, deeply affected by the fragrance. It slled like fruit and sugar, initially sweet but gradually becoming sowhat nauseating.
After slling it for a while, Su Hui began to feel a bit queasy. He turned his head to the side while his body remained lying flat. He wondered why Yang Yuqing hadnt arrived yet.
Maintaining this position for a few minutes, Su Hui couldnt bear the overwhelming scent any longer. He felt like he was about to vomit if he continued slling it, so he tried to sit up from the treatnt chair.
However, his body was too weak in its usual state, his brain a bit dizzy. Although he was conscious, he seed to have lost control of his body.
Suddenly, Su Hui realized that so kind of drug had been sprayed on the pillow. It didnt sll like ether, but it could still induce unconsciousness. It was most likely ether or n-butanol
Before this, Su Hui had co to this place regularly, almost every ti, and it was considered a safe area. He thought he had taken precautions, but he had still been negligent.
He hadnt expected that Yang Yuqings clinic would have a direct connection to 372.
Even more surprising, in the midst of the police pursuit, those people took advantage of this opportunity to act in this way.
During this consultation, he had fallen directly into their trap.
Su Hui wanted to move, even just to make a sound, to alert the nearby Lu Junchi and other officers. But he couldnt do it. He had completely lost control of his body, unable to speak or make any movents.
Su Hui lay on the treatnt bed, feeling as if he were lying on the surface of the sea, constantly sinking, descending into the deep ocean.
Yet, in that dizziness and nausea, he unexpectedly experienced an unprecedented sense of excitent.
His consciousness seed extraordinarily clear, and then Su Hui suddenly rembered where he had seen that woman before
TN:
Well this chapter is f*ckin ssed up! These people are sick. Do you think things could have turned out differently for these guys if they hadnt been instigated or manipulated by the psychopaths. This kind of begs the old age question: Are psychopaths born or made?
