Chapter Thirty-Nine: The Strange Boy
"Is it feasible for you to find the king? Wait a while, I guess I'll bring it back soon. The doctor took two steps back and looked out into the hallway.
"Doctor, why did he run away?" I asked curiously.
The doctor sighed helplessly and replied, "This boy has had the idea of escaping since his depressive tendencies were treated, and he wants to leave the hospital every once in a while, and the doctors and nurses who take care of him are used to it. β
"You can't do this, if he falls from the fourth floor, will the hospital be able to take this responsibility?" I said angrily.
"He didn't go out of the window." Lu Lingyun walked over and patted me on the shoulder with a smile.
"Huh? It's so meticulous that it doesn't go down through the window. β
The doctor nodded and said, "The officer is right, Wang Kexing pretended to escape through the window, and went out through the door wearing a white sheet while there were many people in the ward in a panic. β
"Why don't you let him go?"
"Actually, he didn't really want to leave, and several times when he reached the inner wall of the hospital, the nurse saw him standing motionless and looking outside, and asked him why he didn't continue to run, and he didn't say anything."
Just as we were learning about the situation, there was a sound of footsteps in the hallway, and two male doctors walked in with a boy of fifteen or sixteen.
The boy's hands crossed over his body, restrained by long sleeves, resembled a mummy.
He didn't make a fuss or struggle, with a pair of dilated pupils under his delicate single eyelid, looking indifferently ahead.
"I'm back~~ I caught it so quickly today." The male doctor who was chatting with us just now said with a smile on his face.
"Let's treat his wounds first, he escaped without even wearing shoes, and his feet were cut by the stones in the woods."
I looked down and noticed Wang Kexing's feet, their originally fair complexion was frozen purple, leaving a bloody footprint on the ground with every step.
"Hurry up, put him on the bed, there are police comrades here, don't think that we abuse the patient, and spread it out to let the family know that it's not good."
Wang Kexing sat back on the hospital bed with an expressionless face, lifted one leg, and the soles of his feet were stained with blood and dirt, so that he could not see where the wound was.
I pouted and turned my head, feeling the pain in my feet.
It's a bad taste, and sometimes what you see is more terrible than what you have experienced.
Two more little nurses came in from outside the ward, they treated and bandaged Wang Kexing's wounds, and when everything was done, Lu Lingyun only left Dr. Zhang, who was talking to us at the beginning, and kicked the others out of the room.
I walked over to the side of the bed and pulled out a plastic chair and sat down, my eyes fixed on Wang's face.
He was pale, thinner than the average fifteen-year-old boy, and his short, shaved hair was very different from the hairstyle in the photograph.
He no longer has that kind of disdainful arrogance, but only confusion.
He's been through a lot this year, and to be honest, I really have a hatred for that woman.
Whose child is not a child, Wang Kexing is not a real mother by her side, does she, as a stepmother, have the right to detain the crimes she committed on a fifteen-year-old boy?
"Can you tell me about the case?" I want to help him and I want him to respond.
Several people in the ward were waiting silently, for a minute, two minutes... Five minutesΒ·Β·Β· But he never spoke.
Dr. Zhang, who was standing not far away, said: "Comrade policeman, he won't speak, he hasn't spoken since he came here, which is why our hospital has always refused to discharge him." β
"His parents came to pick him up?"
"I've been here, every month, but the hospital is afraid of accidents after going out, considering his state."
I frowned and pondered, this seemed a little unreasonable, if the woman was willing to come and pick up her stepson, it meant that she still wanted to be a good mother, or if she took him for another purpose.
I don't dare to continue thinking about it, maybe it is a miracle that Wang Kexing can live until now.
"It's feasible, I know what the truth is, as long as you believe me, I will make the real culprit pay."
Hearing my words, those sloppy eyes touched slightly, he was listening, he was thinking, I could feel it.
I have to admit that I didn't get any valuable clues when I came to the psychotherapy center this time, so I followed Lu Lingyun and Jin Zi to the outside of the hospital in frustration.
While I was still thinking about the case, I suddenly felt a hand grab my arm from behind.
I looked back and saw a horrified face.
His eyes were bloodshot, his dry lips were baring his teeth, and his voice trembled: "I killed someone... I've killed countless people, and they've all died... All of them are dead..."
"Luo Zheng! It's time to go back to your room! An old woman who looked like a nurse dragged the man away, but he kept muttering: "Kill... Tear them apart... Drink blood... I drank human blood..."
Lu Lingyun walked up to me and asked, "Is there something wrong?" β
My eyes kept looking at the patient named Luo Zheng, and my heart was a little hairy.
It is true that mental hospitals should not be visited often, this is a world that cannot be understood by normal people's thinking.
The three of us sat in the car, discussing things that Wang could do along the way.
Lu Lingyun asked while driving, "Xiaoyan, do you think I need to go to the sub-bureau and ask the colleagues who were handling the case at that time?" β
"No, I want to put a little pressure on that woman, maybe she will admit it herself."
Gold poked her head out from behind and looked at me and asked, "So sure?" β
"No, it doesn't matter if you cheat. I'll have to read all the information, and if I get it wrong, I'm afraid it won't work. β
I opened my phone, and there was a picture file sent to me by Kim Teddy, the font was very small, and it didn't look easy.
At 1:26 a.m. on January 20, Wang Kexing returned to his home after drinking from his classmate Sun Liang's house, he opened the door and saw a dark shadow in the living room.
Victim: Kwan Yonghui, male, 54 years old, unemployed, has four criminal records, including two thefts, brawls and indecent assault.
During the fight between the two sides, Wang Kexing was also hit in the head, and he himself could not explain the specific process of the attack because he was drunk, but admitted that he stabbed Guan Yonghui in the chest with a sharp weapon with his own hands, resulting in the death of the other party.
At that time, there was also a mother and daughter in the family, namely Wang Kexing's stepmother Qiao Yuqing and half-sister Wang Keer.
Qiao Yuqing, as the first eyewitness, confirmed Wang's claim.
The verdict of the case was not mentioned in the file, I don't understand very well, it is clear that the victim was burglarizing, and Wang Kexing is completely justified defense, so why should it be handled as a criminal case.
The explanation given by Teddy Kim is that there is something special about this case.
After the victim lost the ability to resist, Wang Kexing still took the offensive behavior, and it was a very serious injury, resulting in the direct death of the victim, if he was an adult, he would be sentenced to 1 to 2 years in prison, considering that Wang Kexing was under the age of 16, so there is no problem with the verdict.
