Chapter 60: Prelude of Despair (9)

  Lin Yuanxi returned to the hospital when Xia Zhu was staring out of the window in a daze.

  Her hair fell softly down her forehead, looking gentle and pretty.

  Lin Yuan's thoughts inexplicably calmed down as he reached out to gently brush aside Xia Zhu's hair, softly asking: "What's wrong?"

  "Nothing much, is everything all right over there?" Xia Zhu asked.

  Lin Yuan shook his head, his eyes were very calm, like a deep pool.

  Xia Zhu suddenly felt like touching him, she stretched out her hand and stroked Lin Yuan's hair, her eyebrows slightly closed.

  Lin Yuanxu was silent for a moment before asking: "If you had to choose someone in the homicide unit as a mole, who would it be?"

  Xia Zhu was stunned.

  Lin Yuan suddenly felt a little regretful for bringing up this topic, the atmosphere just now was so good, why did he have to suddenly mention this.

  But Xia Zhu had already begun to think seriously, and after a while she said: "If it's from an emotional point of view, then I don't want to suspect anyone," her tone was somewhat nostalgic: "Whether it's Captain Zou Mianyuan or Senior Sheng Yuan, they have both taken good care of me."

  Upon hearing this, Lin Yuan felt inexplicably a little jealous.

  "But if I really had to choose one, I have some doubts about Senior Bi Tianqi."

  Lin Yuan raised an eyebrow.

  Lin Yuan's expression was impossible to read, a common problem for psychology students who were too used to observing others' words and actions, making them unwilling to reveal too much of their own facial expressions. Xia Zhu could only continue: "Because there are a few things about Bi Tianqi that have been on my mind."

  Lin Yuanxiao smiled slightly and nodded at Xia Zhu to continue speaking.

  Xia Zhuo's heart became more and more at ease, nodding: "Do you remember the time of the coffee shop couple? It was also when Predecessor Bi Tianqi took out the previous clues that we paid attention to what happened afterwards. Similarly, several times afterwards when Predecessor Bi Tianqi went in alone to investigate, I saw his expression very hesitant."

  Lin Yuan furrowed his brow and suddenly asked: "But before this, you didn't mention it."

  Xia Zhu shook her head: "Sorry, Professor Lin said before that psychology can make assumptions, but it cannot make unreasonable inferences."

  This sentence is remembered by everyone who studies criminal psychology. In order to ensure that the crime is determined, any event without conclusive evidence cannot be speculated, otherwise it will lead to biased understanding of subsequent events and result in misjudgment.

  It's clear that Lin Yuanxi also knew about it.

  His gaze lingered on Xia Zhu for a moment before he said, "I and Mu Yuan have also considered this."

  Xia Zhu was somewhat surprised.

  "That's right," Lin Yuan continued: "And with your reason, and later, Xi Yuan found that the surveillance of the police station had been tampered with. Except for Bi Tianqi, we couldn't think of anyone who never went out on duty."

  Xia Zhu shook his head and added: "If so, then the household registration police outside are also suspicious."

  "No," Lin Yuanxiao shook his head: "The surveillance of the Major Crimes Unit is separate from the entire police station, and in the files of the Major Crimes Unit, each person has a fixed codename. Although this point is rarely used, but we checked according to the codename, and it was indeed Bi Tianqi who made the move."

  "What should we do now?" Xia Zhu furrowed her brow and asked: "I don't think it's a good idea to scare the snake by hitting the grass."

  "It's impossible to catch a snake by hitting the grass." Lin Yuan's eyebrows rose: "What we need to do is lure the snake out of its hole."

  Since Bi Tianqi is no longer one of us, we might as well use him as bait.

  Xia Zhu hesitated for a moment, then suddenly asked: "I know that my idea may be somewhat adventurous, but I have an idea."

  Lin Yuanqi looked over and nodded for her to continue.

  "After a moment of contemplation, Xia Zhu said: 'Can we persuade Senior Bi Tianqi?'"

  Lin Yuan's eyebrows slightly furrowed, looking somewhat perplexed.

  After a while, Fang finally sighed: "I just think that he might have his own difficulties."

  On this point, Lin Yuanpei snorted: "Every criminal has a grievance, but I don't think that's an excuse for doing evil."

  "No..." Xia Zhu shook his head seriously: "It's just like when a kidnapper is about to be shot, we also have negotiation experts who can negotiate conditions. Maybe we don't necessarily need to give up completely."

  "You mean he can still be treated?" Lin Yuanxi rarely used a popular online phrase.

  Xia Zhu smiled wryly and nodded seriously: "I... was just an idea."

  Lin Yuanxi didn't respond, he simply reached out and gently stroked her soft hair.

  "I'm a bit worried about you over there." Lin Yuan said: "Xi Zhen is very unscrupulous in his actions, and now his target may be you."

  "I can be discharged!"

  Lin Yuan furrowed his brow and looked at her with an unpleasant expression.

  "My point is, if I'm discharged from the hospital, maybe I can still be of some help." Xia Zhu said with a stiff neck and a very firm tone.

  In fact, she didn't want to stay in the hospital anymore! If she stayed any longer, she might go crazy!

  Something's gone wrong in three places outside and I just can't sit still...

  Lin Yuan hesitated for a moment before reluctantly nodding his head: "Alright, I'll go contact the doctor to see if we can get the discharge procedures done."

  Before he finished speaking, Xia Zhu enthusiastically pressed the nurse call button.

  Lin Yuanxi raised his eyes and looked at her, with a tone that seemed to be smiling but not quite asking: "Can I assume this was premeditated?"

  Xia Zhu's hand stiffened slightly.

  "Have you been thinking of leaving the hospital for a long time?" Lin Yuanxiao smiled faintly.

  "It is..." Xia Zhu withdrew her hand silently and saw the doctor walking in.

  "Alright," Lin Yuanxi stared at the doctor for a long time, finally nodding reluctantly: "Starting tomorrow, 24 hours with me."

  Xia Zhu looked up and thought for a moment, suddenly being stunned by his own rich imagination!

  "What does twenty-four hours mean..." Xia Zhu swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

  Lin Yuan furrowed his brow: "What?"

  Summer bamboo shakes its head like a wave drum, I absolutely didn't think too much.

  Zou Muyuan was overjoyed with Xia Zhu's return to the team.

  These days, Lin Yuanxi was busy with things on this side, and all the other time was either rushing to the hospital or muttering to himself that he had to send more people to Xia Zhu's side, afraid that someone would go and snatch people away.

  Zou Muyuan deeply felt that if Xia Zhu didn't return to the team soon, he might go crazy.

  Xia Zhu returned, and Zou Mian felt much better about himself.

  After hearing Xia Zhu's words, Zou Mu Yuan unexpectedly didn't say anything.

  Lin Yuanxu looked at him for a while before turning his head to look at Xia Zhu: "His silence means that he must have thought so too."

  "Shén guàng." Zou Mùyuǎn sighed and nodded at Xià Zhú: "That's right, I did mean that. I don't want to give up on an old friend like this. If possible, I hope to make him come back, so the final punishment won't be too severe. After all, there are no serious consequences."

  "He's been on that side for quite some time," Sheng Yuan said suddenly, flipping through the surveillance footage quickly: "He had already made contact with them five years ago, because at that time he had already moved to cover up."

  Lin Yuan's eyebrows furrowed: "Are you sure it was five years ago?"

  "That's right." Sheng Yuan handed over the form in his hand.

  Lin Yuan and Zou Mu-yuan exchanged a glance: "Then that thing five years ago, he was likely involved too."

  That thing which almost changed Lin Yuan's life might also have something to do with Bi Tianqi.

  "you..." Zou Muyuan didn't know what to say.

  Lin Yuanxi shook his head calmly: "I will only hold one person, Xi Zuo, responsible."

  Perhaps everyone's heart has had some unspeakable shadows, if not for Xi Zhi's encouragement, these shadows may slowly disperse with the sunshine, or perhaps become a part of the deepest memories, rather than a big explosion.

  If there was no Xi Jinping, none of this would have happened.

  "Speak your mind." Zou Muyuan looked at Xia Zhu.

  "From a psychological perspective, we need to find the motive."

  Lin Yuan spoke up, taking on the role of an interpreter: "In other words, we need to find out why he chose to defect to Xibei and uncover the underlying psychological motivations, whether it's due to dissatisfaction with his current life or a desire for revenge."

  "If I could recreate his mental state from five years ago, then maybe I can find a way to bring him back," Xia Zhu said.

  Sheng Yuan furrowed his brow tightly and suddenly looked at Zou Mianyuan: "Five years ago, was it just when I first came in?"

  Zou Muyuan thought for a moment and nodded: "Yes."

  "Before me, he was the chief forensic doctor of the major crimes unit. After I came, Bi Tianqi became a technical staff member." Sheng Yuan introduced: "I always thought he didn't mind."

  The forensic room also invited him later, but he was already devoted to technical expertise. Zou Mianyuan added.

  Xia Zhu and Lin Yuanqi exchanged a glance, feeling like they were on the right track.

  "If it weren't for Sheng Yuan, he might have become a well-known forensic doctor by now." Lin Yuankui said with a hint of mockery.

  Xia Zhu could almost guess his thoughts.

  It's actually quite interesting how people sometimes have mixed feelings about giving up on something they chose to abandon.

  "If it's really like that, then he probably did all this to avenge Sheng Yuan." Zou Mingyuan furrowed his brow and looked at Sheng Yuan beside him.

  Sheng Yuan shook his head: "Until now, I have never felt guilty for snatching the position of forensic doctor."

  "You don't need to," Lin Yuan said calmly: "This world is already a place where the strong prey on the weak, and even if he becomes a forensic doctor, he will definitely not be as outstanding as you."

  "So the crux of the matter has been found," said Zou Muyuan. "If we want him to return, what should we do?"

  It can't be that they're going to kick Shengyuan out of the team, this point, Zou Mianyuan felt a bit indignant for Shengyuan.

  "It's a very simple way for him to find his sense of existence and feel valued by the team." Lin Yuan said simply.

  "Are we taking advantage of him?" Xia Zhu hesitated a little:

  "It doesn't count." Lin Yuan said firmly.

  "But there is one thing that can be considered," Zou Muyuan said suddenly: "There is an opportunity to study abroad, which was originally intended for forensic doctors. I wanted Sheng Yuan to go."

  "Give it to him." Sheng Yuan didn't hesitate at all: "I've already been abroad for further study before, and this opportunity isn't that precious. Moreover, he has a dream of being a forensic doctor. If we don't let him go this time, it will be hard to make him come back."

  Zou Mianyuan hesitated for a moment before nodding his head.

  The door was knocked on, and Zou Mianyuan was slightly startled. Then he heard Bi Tianqi ask from outside, "Captain?"

  Several people exchanged glances, and Zou Muyuan opened the door.

  Bi Tianqi looked a bit uneasy: "Captain, I want to ask for an afternoon off."

  This time even Shengyuan, who didn't understand psychology at all, could see that Bitianqi's expression was very anxious, extremely anxious.
