Chapter 6: Second Life

At the age of 16, Ruan Ningman was slim, like a hibiscus out of the water. However, the flower died prematurely.

On her way home from cram school, she was brutally raped by a drunk. Although the drunk was punished by the law, her young mind was ruthlessly destroyed, and she always lived in a shadow that she could not get rid of.

"It is not fair at all that the criminals spent five years and six months casting a lifetime on the victims!" Li Meng was very resentful after hearing this, and almost squeezed this sentence out of his teeth.

Lin Zifan sighed, and said quietly: "I didn't continue to follow up and investigate the criminal's situation, but this is a case that happened seven years ago, and now the criminal should have been released from prison." ”

"Is there any connection between the two cases?" Xue Hang suddenly said.

We're all thinking about it, but for now, there shouldn't be much connection.

After being silent for a long time, I slowly asked, "Who is Ruan Ningman's guardian?" ”

"Ten years ago, Ruan Ningman's parents died one after another, and she was fostered in her aunt's house since she was a child, and her aunt brought her up. At that time, after the rape case, her aunt regretted it so much that she felt ashamed of Ruan Ningman's parents, and wanted to commit suicide several times. Lin Zifan said seriously.

"Let's find Ruan Ningman's aunt to investigate the situation, maybe she will know some relevant clues and know about Ruan Ningman's current situation," I calmed down and said slowly.

At this moment, Officer Wang of the criminal police team next door walked into the office of the serious crime team.

"Team Qin, Ruan Ningman's aunt has arrived." Officer Wang said to us seriously.

"You're really a timely rain, come whatever you want." I smiled and hurriedly stood up and walked towards the interrogation room with Officer Wang.

In the interrogation room, sat a thin woman, with sallow skin, fleshless cheeks, and her hair disheveled behind her.

This person is Ruan Ningman's aunt, at this time her eyes are blank, her eyes are empty, sitting motionless in her chair, not knowing what she is thinking.

Ruan Ningman's death has greatly stimulated her spirit, and she is already on the verge of collapse, and she will fall into madness at any time.

"Hello, we are the criminal police in charge of the investigation of this case." Officer Wang and I walked into the room and spoke seriously.

The woman slowly raised her head, looked at us in a daze, and did not speak.

"You're Ruan Ningman's aunt, right, and you're the current Ruan Ningman's guardian?" We sat across from her and asked softly.

The woman was still looking at us in a daze, her face expressionless, and her somewhat sunken eyes were very scary.

"Yes." The woman spoke slowly, and let out a cold voice.

"According to our understanding, Ruan Ningman's parents have been living in your house since their parents passed away, and you have been raising her until now. When did she move out to live on her own? I steadied myself and asked slowly.

After hearing this question, the woman's expression suddenly became sad, tears were in her eyes, and she said tremblingly: "I'm sorry for her parents...... It was my fault...... I'm sorry for her, I'm ......"

Obviously, what she expressed should have been the rape case seven years ago.

"If I had picked her up from school that night, it wouldn't have happened. I'm sorry for my brother and sister-in-law under Jiuquan, I don't have the face to continue living, I don't have the face to see them......" The woman said, her body trembling violently, although she kept repenting, she still didn't have any expression, and she didn't speak without any emotion.

"Please control your emotions a little, it has happened, and it is useless to regret it. What you can do now is to cooperate with our police investigation and arrest the murderer as soon as possible. Officer Wang looked at her and said seriously.

The woman slowly raised her head, looked at us in a daze, and said faintly: "After that incident, Ruan Ningman has been living in the shadows. After taking a leave of absence, she locked herself in her room every day, talking crazy nonsense, and would wake up at night with nightmares. I looked at her appearance, my heart was like a knife, I couldn't help it, I just wanted to die, but after I died, what should she do......

At that time, I thought, I am guilty, but before I apologize with death, I must raise Ruan Ningman as an adult, and after seeing that she can live on her own, I will go to the underworld to find my brother and sister-in-law to apologize.

During that time, Nguyen Ninh Man was insane and talked nonsense crazy every day, I took her to the hospital for a check-up, and the doctor said that she was suffering from severe depression and suggested that I take her to see a psychiatrist.

I didn't know what a psychiatrist was, so I took her everywhere to see a doctor, but it didn't work, the hospital prescribed her a lot of tranquilizers, but her condition never improved.

By chance, she heard a song that was sung by a foreign band, and I couldn't understand it.

But I suddenly found that she likes to listen to music, and every time the music starts, she becomes very calm, and her eyes light up, as if as long as the music plays, everything is fine, and her illness is cured!

I saw hope! I recorded the song and went to some young people and asked what it was. Then the young man took me to buy a lot of records of this band, and I listened to Ruan Ningman every day.

After a few months, her mood gradually stabilized, and she began to beat the songs, and later began to slowly hum along. She slept peacefully at night, rarely woke up by nightmares, and she became fond of eating, the amount of food was larger than before, and her mental state had improved!

In this way, it lasted for more than half a year, and suddenly one morning, she took the initiative to open the bedroom door and came out, and called me affectionately, she said! She said! She said, 'Auntie, I'm hungry and want to eat burritos!' ’

At the time, I ...... I cried out with excitement, and for more than a year, for a whole year, I ...... My heart finally landed...... At that moment...... I kept crying, crying and crying......

Later, Ruan Ningman fell in love with music, bought another guitar, and came out of the shadows. It was music that gave her a second life.

Instead of going back to school to continue her studies, she found some like-minded friends who also liked music, and together they formed a band.

Later, she performed with the band, traveled north and south, and earned some pocket money.

Every time I see a picture of her and see her smile, I can't help but cry......

After that, she kept making music, and a few years ago she said she sang in a bar, and I didn't ask what it was, as long as she was happy.

About two years ago, she said that she had a stable job and moved out of me, supposedly living in the Pinglan community, but I never been.

When I heard that her life was now very rich and stable, I was satisfied, and I didn't want to bother her anymore, and I didn't have the face to go to her again......"
