Or was it a kidnapping case, and Mao Renfeng paid the ransom behind their back, so the person was released.

Yu Haifeng also had a confused look on his face. He thought of many results, but he didn't expect that the person would come back on his own.

The entire team stopped what they were doing and rushed to Mao Xiaolin's house together.

However, there was no one in the chess and card room. I called Chief Li and found out that he had been sent to the hospital for examination.

The group rushed to the hospital again and saw Mao Xiaolin who had been missing for five days.

But now he was completely different. If everyone hadn't known him before, they would have thought he was a different person.

Mao Xiaolin was arranged in a special ward and had changed into hospital gown. Mao Renfeng was taking care of him inside, but Wu Xiuhua was standing outside, and several nurses were also standing at the door and did not go in.

As soon as he saw Yu Haifeng and his team coming, Li Suo immediately came over with a mixed look of joy and worry on his face, "Captain Yu, let me tell you about the current situation."

"Is he a good person?" Yu Haifeng interrupted and asked.

"I'm in good health, no major injuries."

call--

Yu Haifeng let out a long sigh, finally no one was hurt.

“But he seems to have some mental problems.” Li Suo said in a low voice, then made a gesture and everyone walked to a deserted place nearby to talk.

"This morning around 9 o'clock, Mao Xiaolin suddenly appeared at the gate of the community. His clothes were torn and he looked dazed and didn't say a word."

"At the time, several people wanted to take him home, but he got scared and shrank back when someone touched him. At first, everyone thought he was frightened, so they asked a few aunties to pull him up, but this time he started screaming as if he had seen something terrifying, and the aunties were so scared that they couldn't stand it."

"We had no choice but to wait for Mao Renfeng and Wu Xiuhua to come out. Mao Renfeng was fine, so he went up and pulled him back. He was a little scared, but he seemed to have recognized him, so he didn't resist much."

"Wu Xiuhua was also distressed and wanted to pull her grandson, but as soon as she got close, Mao Xiaolin would scream. Even though she kept saying that she was the grandmother, it was still useless."

Yu Haifeng and Ye Lin looked at each other. What was going on?

"Post-traumatic stress disorder?" Ye Lin guessed.

"I don't know either. We originally thought that he was just a little scared after escaping, but now that we're at the hospital, the situation seems to be even more wrong." Li Suo smiled bitterly.

"Captain Yu, Captain Ye, look, the nurses over there are standing at the door, because they are all women."

"What do you mean? You get scared when you see a woman?" Ye Lin asked.

"Yes, when he was first brought in, he was so scared when he saw the nurse coming that he jumped off the bed, then strangled his neck with both hands. It seemed that even breathing had become difficult for him." Li explained.

"Let's get a psychiatrist here. From what you said, it sounds like you have a serious mental problem."

"I've already asked him to do a physical check-up first. Fortunately, he doesn't have much resistance to Mao Renfeng." Chief Li sighed. He didn't expect this result. If Mao Xiaolin is like this in the future, it may be more serious than losing his hands and feet.

"Let's go and take a look. We have to see it with our own eyes," said Yu Haifeng.

He and Ye Lin opened the ward door and walked in.

Mao Xiaolin was now wearing a hospital gown, half lying on the hospital bed, looking quite nervous, with one hand tightly holding Mao Renfeng and refusing to let go.

As soon as he saw Yu Haifeng and Ye Lin coming in, he was so scared that he sat up and leaned hard against Mao Renfeng, as if he felt safe there.

The attending doctor looked back and said helplessly: "Comrade police, why don't you wait outside first."

Yu Haifeng and Ye Lin retreated reluctantly.

"Take all the clothes and shoes he took off to the technical department to see if there are any clues." Ye Lin asked Lao Zhao and Wang Longxin to return the things to the bureau.

At the door, Wu Xiuhua kept talking to herself, "Why are you afraid of me? I'm your grandmother."

Ye Lin called her softly and took her aside to ask about the situation.

"Aunt Wu, we have something to ask you. Did the kidnappers contact you and you secretly paid the ransom, and then the kidnappers released the person?" Ye Lin asked seriously.

"Ah? Kidnappers? No, no one contacted us at all. I just saw Xiaolin suddenly this morning."

Halfway through her speech, she suddenly started complaining again, "Look at my grandson like this, it's all because of your inaction and failure to catch him, otherwise my grandson wouldn't be like this."

"We are looking for the murderer now. Let me ask you again, have the kidnappers contacted you? Everyone is back. You have nothing to be afraid of." Ye Lin raised his voice a little. He understood this family very well. It would not work if he was not tough.

As expected, when Ye Lin raised his voice, Wu Xiuhua became timid and said in a low voice:

"There really is no kidnapper contacting us. Just like you said, everyone is back. What do I have to fear?"

Ye Lin frowned. It didn't seem like Wu Xiuhua was lying.

Moreover, judging from previous cases, once the hostages are released, the victims will be very willing to cooperate. Looking at Wu Xiuhua's confused expression, she may really not know anything.

Ye Lin looked at Yu Haifeng, who also nodded, thinking that he might really not know.

Soon, the psychologist also rushed over. It has to be said that professionals are professionals. The psychologist quickly broke down Mao Xiaolin's defenses and successfully conducted a psychological assessment on Mao Xiaolin.

Yu Haifeng and Ye Lin sat helplessly in the hospital waiting for the results.

Because Mao Xiaolin's condition was not very stable, several reports were not completed until the late afternoon.

The first one was the hospital's injury report. It had been 5 days and I thought Mao Xiaolin would be covered in scars even if he came back, but I didn't expect the injury report would not even show any minor injuries.

The doctor found signs of binding on Mao Xiaolin's ankles, body and hands, and judging from the marks left, it was not ropes but chains.

"They actually tied him up with iron chains. These people are so cruel." Ye Lin complained.

"Look at this again." Yu Haifeng said with a stern face, pointing at a line in the report.

It said that obvious marks were found on Mao Xiaolin's face, and they were in patches. It was suspected that someone had covered his face with a whole wet towel.

"They used suffocation to torture Mao Xiaolin?" Ye Lin couldn't help but exclaimed.

This is a form of punishment that has existed since ancient times. The method is very simple: cover the person's face with a wet tissue, which will slowly make the person unable to breathe and reach a state of near-death. It causes great psychological trauma to the person and few people can survive it.

"So they tied up Mao Xiaolin with iron chains just to put a wet towel on him for fear that he would break free." Ye Lin found it hard to believe that there were still people so cruel in this day and age. They would kill people to get what they deserved.
