"But maybe she doesn't know that what I like is the purity that comes from the mountain village. Officer, you don't know that when I see her, my heart becomes particularly peaceful, as if my soul has been sublimated."

Sun Jinghua wanted to interrupt him but was stopped by Ye Lin. Although these had nothing to do with the case, they were also his remembrance of the deceased, so it wouldn't hurt to give him a little more time.

"When she was a sophomore, she joined the scholarship program of the Qiangteng Group and earned some money through work-study programs. Her inferiority complex was not so severe, so she gradually opened up her heart."

"At that time, she would occasionally agree to go out and chat with me. She liked literature. Although I didn't understand much, I felt just as happy when I heard her talk excitedly."

An intoxicated look appeared on Wu Ziyue's face, as if he was recalling the days he spent with Liang Jing.

"Her family wasn't well off, but every time she went out with me, she insisted on splitting the bill. She said she didn't want to be a man's slave. Sometimes when she went out to work and study, she'd get some small gifts or snacks, and she'd bring them to me to share."

"that is..."

"You know, a very self-loving and kind girl." Wu Zi became more and more excited as he spoke, and his eyes gradually became moist.

Ye Lin and the others didn't say anything, allowing him to calm down slowly.

“Everything was so beautiful.”

"But one day, she excitedly told me that she had received a performance assignment as part of her work-study program, and that she would be paid 200 yuan per performance. She was very happy, and I was happy for her too."

"That night, to celebrate her making money, I waited for her at the school gate. The performance was supposed to end at 8pm, and I would have returned to school around 9pm, but I waited until after 11pm before I saw her."

"She was very haggard, her face was pale, her eyes were lifeless, and she looked like a walking corpse."

"I was terrified and asked her what was wrong?"

"But she ignored me and just went straight back to the dormitory."

"Later, I asked her out again and again, but she ignored me. Only once did I block her at school and refused to let her go."

"She just said that she was no longer clean and not worthy of me."

At this point, Wu Ziyue couldn't help but cover his face and cry, "I'm useless, I'm useless."

"At the time I said I wanted to go and get revenge, but she said those people were very powerful and if I went, I might not even be able to graduate."

"I chickened out at the time. My family wasn't well off, and I needed to graduate. I was useless."

"Uuuuuu——"

A grown man actually started crying in front of Ye Lin and the others. Ye Lin could feel that he felt very guilty, a kind of guilt for his cowardice.

After calming down a little, Wu Ziyue choked up and said, "Maybe Liang Jing also saw my cowardice. She sneered and left, and never contacted me again."

"Comrade police, she must have been wronged. You must find out the truth. And those who persecuted her must not be let off."

Seeing Wu Ziyue's agitated expression, Yu Haifeng said in a deep voice: "Student, please rest assured. As long as someone breaks the law, we will never let him go."

"Then do you remember whether she told you who harmed her?" Ye Lin asked.

"She didn't say anything, she just said that we can't afford to commit this sin." Wu Ziyue said.

"What about the time? Do you remember what date the performance was that day?"

"September 9th, I remember it very clearly, I will never forget this day." Wu Ziyue directly reported the date. It seemed that it was really a big blow to him.

September 9th, it has been 15 months now, and the examination results are consistent with Liang Jing’s 2-month pregnancy.

It seems that Liang Jing was violated that night and accidentally became pregnant.

Yu Haifeng and Ye Lin looked at each other, and both thought of this.

"We have noted the time. Did Liang Jing say where the performance will be or has any other information for us?" Yu Haifeng asked.

Wu Ziyue thought about it and replied, "She participated in the Qiangteng Group's student aid program. That night seemed to be the Qiangteng Group's Mid-Autumn Festival Gala."

Ye Lin circled the two words "Qiang Teng" on the paper again.

......

After returning to the bureau, Yu Haifeng gathered everyone together to sort out the case.

Zhao Jianfeng and his team also got out of the previous case, and the whole team is now focusing on Liang Jing's self-investigation of the case.

Yu Haifeng first introduced today's situation, set the tone for suicide, and then it was time for free play.

"Linzi, please start your performance." Yu Haifeng is now accustomed to this mode. He finishes speaking, then Ye Lin analyzes, and then everyone starts working.

Ah, it’s good to have a capable subordinate. It saves time and effort.

Ye Lin rolled his eyes at Yu Haifeng and said, "Thank you so much. You are the captain and you let me do everything."

He cleared his throat and said, "Everyone has a general understanding of the case before. Let me explain it in a straightforward manner."

"First, Liang Jing attended the Qiangteng Group's Mid-Autumn Festival Gala two months ago. During the party, she was raped and became pregnant, which led to her death. This may have been the trigger for her suicide, but it was not the direct cause."

"Second, on the day she jumped off the building, Liang Jing went out to answer a phone call, and when she came back at 11 o'clock, she had sex."

"So, the most urgent thing is to find out who called her and what they did."

"Xiao Wang, has Liang Jing's phone been restored? Have the call records for that day been pulled out?" Ye Lin looked at Wang Longxin, who was responsible for contacting the forensics.

"It has been restored, but nothing useful was found in it. This is Liang Jing's cell phone call record for that day. There was indeed a call to her around 5 pm. I checked and it was an internal phone number of Qiangteng Group." Wang Longxin replied.

It’s Qiang Teng again. She was raped two months ago when she went to Qiang Teng’s performance. This time, it was Qiang Teng who called her before she jumped off the building.

"Captain Yu, we have to go to Qiangteng." Ye Lin said affirmatively.

Yu Haifeng looked embarrassed, as the leader had said before that there would not be a special task force to investigate Qiang Teng. Now they were going to investigate Qiang Teng again, and they were afraid that the leader would be unhappy.

Seeing Yu Haifeng's hesitation, Ye Lin advised: "Captain Yu, we are just visiting to understand the situation. It's nothing serious. Besides, as police officers, shouldn't we investigate if there is a problem?"

"Yes, Captain Yu, it's natural for the police to investigate cases. We just have to follow the procedures. There's nothing to be afraid of." Zhao Jianfeng echoed.

Lao Zhao is also a veteran of the criminal police team. He is older than Yu Haifeng and has more experience. However, he has never been promoted because he is rather upright.
