Chapter Eight, The Wings of Angels Eight
Shen Yexi saw him in a daze, so she reached out and patted Jiang Hu's shoulder: "Come back to your senses, it's time to get off work"
An Yining continued, saying that during her time at the bureau, she had not done anything else but thoroughly investigate the murderer. She paused slightly and pouted, saying: "Can you imagine the feeling of being abused by your own mother while seeing a photo of her smiling brightly while holding another child?"
Jiang Hu seemed to be caught off guard, still staring at him blankly as he raised his head—by the way, this person never seems to react. Shen Yexi felt that the current appearance of this person particularly evoked a desire to give him a light tap on the head. So he really did it, gently tapping Jiang Hu's head with his hand.
Why is that
Jiang Hu seemed to be stunned, sitting there with his head in his hands, pondering what was happening.
The man hesitated for a moment, looking at Jiang Hu with an evaluative gaze. Jiang Hu simply stared calmly and composedly into his eyes, and asked again: "Is that right?"
The "Three Character Classic" states: "At the beginning of humanity, nature is inherently good; human natures are similar, but habits diverge."
As for Jianghu ... ... the reflections on human nature and sin have long been set aside. He recalled a saying from his mother, who grew up in the Chinese mainland, that he had always regarded as his motto—"Food is the heaven for the people." Thus, he was happily deceived and taken away by Shen Yexi.
Jiang Hu looked at Shen Yexi, who nodded slightly. Therefore, he extended his hand and said: "Let go of that girl, you do not wish to do something wrong, do you?"
He silently thought, perhaps because ... . ... People are different from one another
The police car whizzed by once again, like the background music of a closing scene
The red light ahead, Sheng Yao stopped, turned his head slightly, as if that person was still sitting in the passenger seat, smiling at him and saying—"How about I keep an eye out for you one of these days? What girl could be lucky enough to find someone as thoughtful and considerate as you"
Shen Yexi fell silent for a moment: "What did his mother live on later?"
The knife fell to the ground, and Jiang Hu swiftly pulled the girl over. No one had the time to notice that this so-called "civilian" could move with such agility.
Because many cars are running on the street, the cars are farting as they go
That pure dead rat was caught by a blind cat, and without waiting for any questions, it was so frightened that it confessed to having a small bag of ecstasy in its bag, catching a murderer while also nabbing a drug addict, a buy one get one free deal
Xu Lin, twenty-five years old. An Yining sat at her desk, with Xu Lin's information on her lap. She casually opened a small drawer beside her, took out a bag of potato chips, and began to eat. Glancing at the surprised look from the other party, she smirked, "You wouldn't expect it, right? I also think this person looks like they are in their thirties or forties."
The discussion on personality and human nature has seen numerous schools of thought from ancient times to the present, yet none have provided a complete and comprehensive understanding. What we do know is that it is something that can, at times, evoke extreme emotions of deep compassion, and at other times, leave one feeling profoundly cold.
Everyone fell silent, and finally, Sheng Yao asked: "So where is his mother now?"
An Yining looked up at him and said: "After you left, the detective investigating the scene informed me that a female skeleton was discovered beneath the ground in that courtyard. Preliminary identification suggests she was between 40 and 50 years old, and the cause of death was a blow to the head with a blunt object"
Does he think it is because he is not good enough? Is it because he is not obedient?
Jiang Hu subconsciously wanted to take it over and tell her that generally speaking, such situations are considered to be caused by a combination of three or even multiple factors. However, when the words were on the tip of her tongue, she suddenly found herself unable to say anything. When it comes to the harm that has already been done, discussing its causes can sometimes leave one feeling particularly helpless and powerless.
Shen Yexi felt as if he were the one holding the carrot, while the little donkey by the Jianghu was obediently following the carrot he held
Why doesn't my mother like me? Is it just because I don't have wings
Yang Man frowned and coldly laughed: "There are many people in the world who have unhappy childhoods, so why is he so special as to jump out and kidnap and murder children?"
He has a certain demeanor of not showing his emotions, and I really don't know how his American friends, who have exaggerated facial expressions, cultivated this trait. Only when it comes to food does his face seem to come alive in an instant, with his speech and actions becoming much faster than usual—Anjie summed it up accurately; this guy is a foodie. It is likely that at that moment, he was indeed lured back by Teacher An with food.
The girl buried her head in the embrace of Jiang Lake, trembling and crying. Gradually, under the powerful aura of a certain healing person, she began to calm down. An Yining had already called the frantic parents of the child, and they were expected to arrive shortly. Yang Man pointed to the unfortunate woman in the police car who was still unclear about the situation: "Ye Xi, what should we do about her?"
Jiang Hu believed he might have understood; the sin he needed to atone for was not the act of killing someone, but rather the fact that he had discarded Zhang Jing's head. He had failed to take proper care of the child's body, and he had not arranged the items neatly. In his mind, not doing things perfectly and failing to organize the items according to his mother's standards was a transgression more unforgivable than murder
Jiang Hu remained seated there, one hand propping up her chin, her gaze lightly glancing at a pile of materials left by An Yining regarding Xu Lin's life.
He recalled a famous saying from Su Junzi's little daughter, Su Ran: "Dad, do you know why the air is not good?"
Jiang Hu's eyes immediately lit up: "Are we eating?"
Shaking his head, a bitter expression gradually appeared at the corners of his mouth—ever since he first entered the organization, Su Junzi had been his partner. Later, the two of them transferred to Shen Yexi's team together. He did not know when it began, but he found himself drawn to this person who was already married and whose relationship with his spouse was so good that even thinking about it felt sinful.
She displayed that photograph on the wall, it was her honor, her past pride. Every day, she meticulously wiped the frame, a gentle smile gracing her face as she murmured, "My little angels." The slender boy watched his mother cautiously from a distance, his biological mother.
Originally? '' Shen Yexi asked
Sometimes, excessive affection stems from a deep-seated passion within the heart, a kind of infatuation that is not meant to be shared with outsiders
For the one thousandth time, he felt that Jiang Hu was an extraordinary person, deeply hidden and unassuming. Jiang Hu had the ability to shatter his assumptions and fantasies for the one thousand and first time, wandering within his line of sight with an air of independence. After the withered orchids, the overwatered cacti, the accidentally shattered porcelain dolls, and the filthy, discarded large plush toys, Jiang Hu became the most competent and promising mascot in the office, likely to remain loyal and dedicated for a long time.
Su Junzi greeted hurriedly and rushed home. The detective escorting the suspect Xu Lin opened the car door, but his eyes were solely fixed on Su Junzi's retreating figure, a fleeting hint of loneliness passing across his face.
Shen Yexi looked at the man in the interrogation room: "A child who was abused daily by a mentally unstable mother... He used an ice cream truck to block the small road, subconsciously compensating for everything that was lacking. I feel that this person has transformed his fear of his mother into self-hatred, and then shifted that hatred into an extreme pursuit of perfection. After he killed, he felt regret and pain, because those children trusted him so much. Therefore, he arranged them one by one as compensation, and in order to make them appear more perfect and dignified, he decapitated them to compensate for that tiny, imperceptible height difference that normal people would not notice."
Shen Yexi smiled, and this person's actions were reminiscent of the little hamster he had raised in his childhood, freezing in place in a state of shock: "What are you dazed about? Let's go, you have nothing to do tonight, and don't eat that box lunch of yours, it's all cold. I know a good restaurant, would you like to join me for a late-night snack?"
Sheng Yao put on her coat: "I am going back." Yang Man followed closely behind, while An Yi Ning shook her head: "I am going to write the report."
Jiang Hu kept watching Xu Lin in the interrogation room. Upon hearing the question directed at him, he nodded slightly and said, "Genetic factors are one reason, but I believe that living in an environment with a mother who suffers from mental illness may have had an even greater impact on him becoming the way he is now"
Sheng Yao and Su Junzi immediately subdued the man from behind, kicking the knife aside. This farce, amidst the many questions from the crowd, finally came to a conclusion
The esteemed Ms. Li suffers from significant mental disorders, including obsessive-compulsive disorder. It is said that she measures the distance of objects with a ruler, and if someone disturbs them even slightly, she will fly into a rage. Furthermore, during her episodes, she exhibits violent tendencies. Xu Lin's childhood medical records indicate that he has endured physical abuse, but unfortunately, our country has not yet found effective solutions in this regard
Dress her in angelic garments, light white candles, and place fresh flowers, as if commemorating, as if the angels would guard the pure soul, returning to the paradise of heaven. So, is it for atonement? Why was there no such action before?
I want to... perhaps this is what is called 'perfection'? Jiang Hu gently interfaces, Xu Lin's mother lost her job due to mental health issues, transferring her anxiety and irritability onto her son. At the same time, from the photos she still keeps from the Youth Palace, it is evident that she had a deep emotional attachment to that job. Therefore, her nostalgia and feelings would correspondingly shift towards those students with whom she once studied vocal music. The tenderness and nostalgia for those happy children in the photos with wings, along with the abuse of her own son, lead me to believe that a child raised in such an extreme contrast would not be very normal.
Jealousy... How despicable I have become, to the point where I would one day harbor such feelings.
Single-parent family, raised by the mother, lived in the neighborhood where he was arrested when he was young, near that abandoned yard. His mother, Li Xiaofang, was originally a teacher at a youth palace, taught vocal music, rehearsed a program called 'Wings of Angels', and even won a city award—well, that's the photo in his home.
Thus, this story teaches us that we should pay attention to the almanac before going out in the future
Why is that? Sheng Yao couldn't understand. Perhaps it was because the gentle and relaxed smile that appeared on his face while he was on the phone made him feel particularly warm? However, watching him, troubled by the victimized child, constantly calling his little daughter and wife, that feeling of both heartache and jealousy was so tormenting.
Later, due to economic constraints, she sold the house she originally lived in and moved with her son to the current small one-bedroom apartment, working at a toll station not far away. An Yi Ning looked down at the information she had found, "The eyewitness said that Xu Lin's ice cream truck had to leave by 5:40 PM, right? He drives for about twenty minutes, so he would just arrive home at 6 PM. I think it resembles the shadow his mother left on him at that time"
What was his motive for kidnapping and murdering the child? Yang Man remained unfazed, her arms crossed over her chest. As a self-proclaimed leader, she believed that she had little sympathy to spare, and any she possessed should not be wasted on such scum.
The man turned his head; it was already dark, and his vision was not very clear. He could only see in the distance a few individuals resembling police officers handcuffing a woman and escorting her to a police car
Liu Qing said: "Everyone has several emotional pillars in their spirit, including those related to parents, faith, ideals, friendships, and love. If any of these pillars break, it will cause heartache."
The man looked at the girl who was crying so hard she was almost out of breath, hurriedly releasing his hand, feeling somewhat at a loss: "I... I... I'm sorry..."
On this evening, another person was also wandering outside—Sheng Yao was driving, with no particular destination in mind, simply cruising around the streets in circles. The peak hours had passed, and traffic on the main roads was not too congested, but the air was truly poor, choked with the noxious fumes from the cars.
Jiang Hu said: "She is a bad person, so what she says is not right. Lin Lin, you are a perfect child"
Then why did he have to leave that child
An Yining shook her head: "I don't know, we have to wait for the court to send experts to assess the extent of his madness."
Later, Li Xiaofang was found to have certain mental health issues and underwent a period of treatment. After the Youth Palace learned of this, they expelled her, leaving the mother and son without any financial support, and the treatment consequently came to an end. An Yining sighed and said, "I have heard that mental illnesses can also have genetic factors, is that true, Dr. Jiang?
Shen Yexi raised an eyebrow and said, "Please go to the local police station and let the officers handle it; this is also a contribution to the campaign against pornography and illegal publications"
A somewhat incredulous yet slightly shy smile appeared on the man's face: "I am ... ... "
Xu Lin in the interrogation room appeared somewhat restrained, hunching his back as if trying to lock himself onto the chair, resembling a child—a wild and dangerous child
He sighed, turned around, and found Jiang Hu looking at him with a peculiar gaze. That gaze left him momentarily stunned, and he then shook his head as if realizing something: "He has spent his entire life trying to compensate for his incomplete world"
The last child who was kidnapped was not standing in the position typically occupied by the kidnapped children in the choir, which is why Shen Yexi concluded from the fake wings behind her that she was not originally Xu Lin's target
