Rong Bridge Sky Street.
Wu Kuifeng, having just finished surveying, received a phone call.
"Captain Wu! The suspect is trying to escape, but we caught her. What should we do now?"
"What?" Wu Kuifeng looked at Liang Yan in surprise.
Didn’t he say that Cao Xiurong was already a fool?
"Don’t alert her, follow her, and report her position at all tis!" Wu Kuifeng quickly ordered.
After hanging up, Wu Kuifeng said to Liang Yan, "You were wrong. That Advisor Bai was right."
Liang Yan shrugged, not offering any explanation.
The two got in the car and rushed to the suspect’s residence.
In the car, Wu Kuifeng received another call, saying the suspect returned suddenly and didn’t seem to want to escape.
What is going on? Does that woman’s mind really have issues?
By the ti they arrived at Cao Xiurong’s ho, it was already seven in the evening.
This was an utterly ordinary neighborhood, a two-bedroom, one-living room apartnt, totaling less than seventy square ters. Regardless of the location, price, or decoration, everything was as ordinary as Cao Xiurong.
When Wu Kuifeng and Liang Yan pushed the door open, Cao Xiurong was sitting on the couch with a pained expression.
Wu Kuifeng frowned slightly. Her behavior at the mont was not like that of a fool...
Liang Yan was also sowhat surprised. Perhaps because she was back in her familiar ho, Cao Xiurong’s ntal state was noticeably better.
But he had clearly checked; Cao Xiurong’s mory was a complete ss, and she definitely shouldn’t be a normal person.
He couldn’t be mistaken, yet here was the normal Cao Xiurong sitting there, which was very puzzling.
Moreover, after seeing Wu Kuifeng and Liang Yan, Cao Xiurong seed to have an emotional fluctuation, her whole body leaning back slightly.
"Don’t worry, now there’s no one else in this room but us."
Wu Kuifeng sat on the sofa in front of her, and Liang Yan took out a handkerchief to place under him before sitting down.
He eyed Cao Xiurong, trying to understand how this middle-aged woman managed to switch from being a fool back to normal.
Wu Kuifeng stared at her, questioning, "Why did you bomb Rong Bridge Sky Street?"
"No... not... not !"
Cao Xiurong was emotionally agitated but managed to speak.
In terms of both expression and body language, she was obviously full of resistance towards the two people in front of her.
"I didn’t... it wasn’t ... it really wasn’t ..."
She lowered her head and began to mutter.
Seeing her emotions start to sway, Wu Kuifeng imdiately comforted her: "Alright, I believe you..."
"But even if you were wrongfully accused, you still need to tell why you were there at two o’clock and why you were holding a detonator. If you don’t speak, I can’t help you. The belief of us two is not enough; you need to convince more people."
"Why was I there..." Hearing Wu Kuifeng’s words, a clear confusion appeared in Cao Xiurong’s eyes. "Why was I holding a detonator..."
She kept repeating these two sentences, her voice growing softer and her emotions more peculiar with each repetition.
At this mont, Liang Yan, who had been silent all along, spoke up.
He looked at Wu Kuifeng and said, "You leave first; I’ll handle her."
Wu Kuifeng didn’t say much, imdiately got up, and left, rembering to close the door behind him.
anwhile, the officers outside, along with Wu Kuifeng, didn’t go far. Instead, they closely monitored the developnt inside the room.
"Captain Wu, is that young Liang really capable of hypnotism?" a curious and puzzled officer asked. Rumors about that young man having hypnotism skills had been circulating since his first appearance.
"Don’t speak unnecessarily." Wu Kuifeng glared at the officer, offering no explanation.
But he knew that Liang Yan’s abilities were far more terrifying than hypnotism...
Inside the room now, Liang Yan had already extended his hand, pressing it onto Cao Xiurong’s forehead.
His senses felt suddenly stripped away, the entire world turning into a blank.
Then... he instantly appeared in another world!
A hazy, bizarre world—Cao Xiurong’s mory world.
There were images now...
Re-entering Cao Xiurong’s mory world, Liang Yan imdiately noticed the difference.
Actually, in the interrogation room, he had already tried entering Cao Xiurong’s mory world, but all he saw was a valueless chaos.
Even a madman’s mory world would have fragnted mory pieces or various wild and fanciful images.
Only a fool’s mories are murky, unknowable, a formless chaos.
Thus, he concluded that Cao Xiurong was already a fool.
But now... her condition had clearly changed, and images were appearing in her mory.
"This place is..."
Liang Yan "opened" his "eyes" to see bustling crowds.
The sunlight from the sky was dim, warming the body without a sense of warmth. The wind stirred the treetops, yet no air movent was felt.
Glancing around because he had just been there, Liang Yan was sure.
This was Rong Bridge Sky Street.
He glanced at the symbolic clock on the largest office building at Rong Bridge Sky Street.
It was now... one forty-five.
He had entered a mory node.
One forty-five, in Cao Xiurong’s mory.
Good luck, this was the scene she rembered the most vividly today.
But now, she was already holding that detonator.
No... ti needed to rewind.
Liang Yan reached out and pressed his hand against the wall, closing his eyes.
The surrounding scenes rewound rapidly, the whole world passing by like a shadow puppet show before Liang Yan.
Though most were blurry, so were quite clear.
Those clear spots were where Cao Xiurong’s gaze focused.
Each ti he ca across a particularly clear scene, Liang Yan would open his eyes to take a look.
Human mory is very strong, extraordinarily strong.
But realistically, the average person can only rember limited things. Most can only recall what they consciously try to rember or events that leave a deep impression.
Other things gradually fade with ti.
For instance, if soone enters a restaurant, although their eyes take in the interior setting, after a short while, rembering the color of the tables may prove impossible.
Liang Yan wasn’t looking for those trivial details; he needed the real criminal information.
Rewinding...
One minute...
Three minutes...
Five minutes...
Six minutes... stop!
This is it.
Liang Yan’s hand left the wall as he reopened his eyes.
A smiling man stood in front of him.
He extended a hand, handing sothing resembling a remote control to Cao Xiurong.
And his appearance... upon seeing him, Liang Yan’s breathing montarily halted, instantly pulling him out of the mory world!
The one who handed the detonator to Cao Xiurong was... that Advisor Bai?
