Chapter Sixteen: Sex and Violence

  Yang Rong did not expect that Lin Min, who had always been aloof and cold, would have such an experience. However, she had killed Fan Sai after all. If she had surrendered herself at the time, she wouldn't have suffered so much torture.

  "If you want to know if what I'm saying is true or not, just take a look and you'll know." As she said this, Lin Min was about to undo her own clothes.

  Fang You saw Yang Rong's action and hastily stopped her, "Miss Lin, what are you doing? Wait a minute, we'll let the professionals collect evidence."

  Watching Fang's embarrassed appearance, Lin Min lowered his head and didn't speak. Yang Rong gave Fang a white eye, letting him hurry out and bring the forensic doctor over.

  To verify whether Lin Min's words were true or false, Yang Rong asked Wang Si Ting for help to test it.

  When Lin Min stood naked in front of the two, Wang Si Ting, who was used to seeing all sorts of scars, also took a cold breath. This person really had a heavy hand.

  Lin Min's upper body, chest area, is all scarred from cigarette burns and many bite marks. How much force was used at the time, how viciously they were bitten, so many years have passed, yet the shocking scars still remain.

  There are also those complete scars, Lin Min said that they were left by being scalded with candle oil.

  The base of her thigh was also full of burns and bites, Lin Min turned around, on her back were rows of scars, which were left after being flogged. Looking at these scars, it seemed that Lin Min must have been beaten until her skin was torn open at the time.

  Wang Si Ting looked at Lin Min, this once proud woman, because of her own impulsive moment, actually paid so much, she can still live well in this world now, is also an extremely strong woman.

  "It's simply despicable, he's a pervert!" Yang Rong looked at Lin Min, who was covered in scars, and had long forgotten that Lin Min was a murderer. She saw her as a poor woman who had been subjected to sexual violence, and wondered how she had endured so many injuries back then.

  As for Yang Rong's injustice and Wang Si-ting's pitifulness, Lin Min was much calmer. "These are just visible scars, what about the ones that can't be seen? How would you know? For so many years, I've been having nightmares, with Fan Sai's dying appearance, and Chen Qian-kun tormenting me every night. But I also want to thank these nightmares, at least they let me know I'm still alive."

  "Why didn't you report it at that time?" Yang Rong didn't understand, she had suffered so much torture, why didn't she go to the police.

  "Call the police? Ah, I was asking myself that too. Why didn't I go to the police? Maybe at that time, I was really afraid of going to jail." Lin Min felt a strong sense of disdain for her past self, that woman who hid in the darkness and cried alone, she felt disgusted.

  This is her most ugly self that she has been trying hard to hide, now she has said it all out and finally felt relieved.

  "The nightmare is finally over." Lin Min put on her clothes, and Yang Rong saw the relief in her eyes. The shame and nightmares of so many years, she could finally let go, perhaps she had been waiting for this day for a very long time.

  Wang Siting made a record of the scars on Lin Min's body. Wu Hui read Lin Min's confession and said to Guo Yining: "There must be students in school who have also been harmed by him, investigate and sue for crimes such as prostitution, rape, and extortion."

  Hearing that school students might be harmed, Yang Rong was furious and volunteered to investigate.

  Due to the face-saving reason, many students were unwilling to speak out. Fortunately, there were a few who had long hated Chen Qiankun and were willing to stand up and accuse him when they heard that he was arrested. Yang Rong took them back to the bureau to make a statement.

  If it weren't for this prostitution incident that caught Chen Qiankun, if it weren't for Lin Min's testimony, they would never have thought that a principal could do such an outrageous and immoral thing.

  All the girls who came to the bureau were more or less molested by Chen Qiankun. One of them was promised a good job by Chen Qiankun if she could make him happy. Under Chen Qiankun's coercion and temptation, she went down a path of no return. After examination, it was found that she was seriously injured and could no longer bear children. When she heard the news, she cried her heart out. This beast had ruined her life.

  Through the testimony of several victims, Chen Qiankun each time promised to introduce work or stay in school, allowing some girls to become his many victims of indulging in lust.

  Some female students, after being subjected to Chen Qiankun's sexual and violent abuse once, could no longer bear it and asked Chen Qiankun to spare them. However, at this time, Chen Qiankun completely revealed his cruel appearance, threatening that if they did not continue to provide services for him, he would send the photos and videos taken to various websites, making them unable to hold their heads up for life.

  Many female students are afraid and have no choice but to continue being humiliated and become tools for Chen Qiankun's venting.

  The case of prostitution is temporarily closed for now. The most important thing at present is to find Liu Chong, and it's unknown whether Han Xue is alive or dead.

  Wu Hui kept flipping through Lin Min's confession. If it was indeed Lin Min who killed Fan Sai back then, where was Fan Sai's body? More than a decade had passed and the small hill had already been leveled out. A teaching building had even been erected on top of it. It wouldn't be easy to find Fan Sai's remains now.

  Wu Hui called Zhang Qiang, hoping he could find the witness of that case from back then. The case was too old, Wu Hui knew how slim the chances were of finding a witness, but he couldn't give up.

  As long as it's something Wu Hui has entrusted him with, Zhang Qiang will never let him down, even if it's an impossible task, he'll make it possible.

  Zhang Qiang started searching online for what happened that year. If Lin Min killed Fan Sai that year and didn't bury the body, where did the body go? That place isn't very remote, although not many people go there, but it doesn't mean no one goes, so how could no one have discovered the body?

  If the body was discovered buried, then it would definitely make a big noise when the house was built and the foundation was dug, but there is no report of exhuming the remains when the house was built that year.

  Zhang Qiang never gave up, and when he couldn't find anything online, he would post on various forums to search. As a result, someone replied to Zhang Qiang's post in one of the forums, saying that fifteen years ago, while attending Lincheng University, he had made an appointment with his girlfriend at Xiaoshan Slope. Coincidentally, he saw two men coming down from behind Lincheng University, one of whom seemed to be injured and covered in blood on his face. At the time, he thought it was just a fight between two people, so he didn't dare to go up and ask.

  Zhang Qiang asked for the address of the person who posted the message. He has now left Lincheng, but he can tell Zhang Qiang his phone number and if there's anything, he can call him.

  Zhang Qiang called Wu Hui to inform him of the clue he had found, and Wu Hui gave the phone number to Guo Yining, who contacted him.

  According to the poster's recollection at that time, since many years have passed, he can no longer remember what the two people looked like. However, it is certain that both were men, one with a head injury who was unconscious, and the other carrying the injured man away.

  As for which direction they went, the original poster can no longer remember, after all it has been over a decade, if not for seeing someone on the forum looking for witnesses from back then, he would have long forgotten about this matter.

  Wu Hui guessed that at the time, Lin Min's stone did not kill Fan Sai, but only made him faint, because at the time of fear, Lin Min did not go forward to check.

  When Lin Min left, the one who took Fan Si away should not be Chen Qiankun. If Chen Qiankun knew that Fan Si was not dead, he would never use this matter to threaten Lin Min.

  The gentleman's rib bones found in Lin Chong's house can be inferred that the man who took Fan Ze away that year was definitely Liu Chong.

  When Wang Si-ting brought in the DNA test results on the bone, it confirmed Wu Hui's guess that the rib was indeed Fan Ze's.

  Wu Hui didn't understand why Liu Chong would pull out one of Fan Ze's ribs after killing him, instead of destroying it along with the other corpses.

  "Haven't you heard the story about how a woman is a man's rib?" Wang Si Ting said.

  Wu Hui looked at forensic doctor Wang Si Ting who was sitting opposite him and asked, "What does it mean?"

  "This is a story from the Bible, about how God created man in the Garden of Eden. At first, there was no rain on earth, but the ground was covered with mist and plants grew, nourishing the land. God then used mud to create man, blowing life into his nostrils, creating a living being with a soul. He named him Adam. But at that time, Adam was lonely, so God decided to create a partner for him. While he slept, God took one of his ribs and closed up the flesh. God created a woman from this rib, naming her Eve. When God brought Eve before Adam, he immediately realized the connection between them, exclaiming 'This is bone of my bones, flesh of my flesh! She shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man.' Wang Siting's mother believed in Christianity and told her this story when she was little."

  Upon hearing Wang Si Ting's words, Fang You seemed to understand why Liu Chong did what he did. "I get it now," he said. "Liu Chong left one of Fan Sai's ribs behind because it represented his deceased sister, Liu Hui. He didn't want to destroy it, so he kept it."

  Wu Hui nodded, he remembered that he had seen a Bible on Liu Chong's bedside table before, and at that time he suspected that Liu Chong believed in Christianity. "It's possible."

  Yang Rong thought of the rib she had seen before, and her body couldn't help but break out in goosebumps. "What does the pattern carved on that rib mean? If Liu Chong took Fan Sai's rib as his sister, why would he carve a pattern on it?"

  This was also something that Wu Hui couldn't understand. Why did he want to carve patterns on his ribs? What did those patterns mean?

  Wang Si-ting saw that no one knew what the carving represented, so she said: "Although I don't understand Liu Chong's mind, but I know what flower is carved."

  Yang Rong heard Wang Si Ting knew what kind of flower it was and hastily asked: "Really, what is that flower?"

  Lilac flower.
