Chapter 210 Wanting to eat meat-flavored tofu
Outside the No. 6 courtyard, the crowd forcing Dongbao and Grandma Tong to leave was in a state of uproar and panic.
"It's hard to believe things turned out this way."
"Dongbao actually saved someone! He's not the murderer. We...we wronged an innocent person."
“Jiang Yuan’an and his son look respectable, I never expected them to do such a thing. We can’t let them live in this tenement.”
"Yes, we need to kick them out!"
"Get them out!"
...
Dongbao helped Grandma Tong back into the house with all his heart. Various sounds came from behind them. He paused. Grandma Tong patted the back of Dongbao's hand: "Someone is looking for you over there."
Dongbao wasn't too happy: "Oh."
Grandma Tong looked at the approaching officer nervously and asked, "Officer, is there any other problem?"
Xiao Bai walked under the eaves with a smile and said to Dong Bao and Grandma Tong, "Don't be nervous, grandmas. Our team is like an autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves when it comes to criminals. I can guess from her politeness that she's not after you."
Grandma Tong relaxed a little and nodded: "That's good." In her aging life, this day was also the most difficult day.
Xiao Bai said politely, "Comrade Ning Dujuan over there wants Dongbao to accompany her to the hospital. She's suffered a mental breakdown and doesn't trust anyone but Dongbao. Could you perhaps let Dongbao accompany her for a bit?"
Grandma Tong breathed a sigh of relief, stuffed a steamed bun into Dongbao's hand, and said, "Bao, be good. We should help others. Go and help your sister out."
Dongbao pouted, took a bite of her steamed bun, and said, "Oh."
Shen Zhenzhu walked over from behind and, seeing that Grandma Tong's complexion had not yet recovered, said, "Why don't you go to the hospital with them for a check-up?"
Grandma Tong quickly waved her hand: "No, no."
Chen Zhenzhu said, "Dongbao has done a great job. This physical examination will be paid for by the government, so you won't have to pay anything. Let's also see if there's anything else that's bothering you, and get the medicine prescribed at the same time."
Grandma Tong said earnestly, "How could I take advantage of public funds? I didn't do anything."
Shen Zhenzhu said, "You and Dongbao have been a great help to us. We would have done the same for anyone else. Look, the victims over there have gone too, haven't they?"
Dongbao held Grandma Tong's hand and said, "Dongbao wants to stay with Grandma."
Xiao Bai also took Grandma Tong's hand and said, "Don't worry, I'll find someone to accompany you. You can just relax and get checked out."
Wu Zhongguo waved his hand: "I'm familiar with this process, I'll go with you."
Shen Zhenzhu saw them out of the courtyard. A group of neighbors had gathered outside, and they all made way for Dongbao and Grandma Tong when they saw them come out.
Grandma Tong was a little scared when she saw them barging into the house like a demon, smashing and throwing things. She had only ever seen such a thing from afar when she was young.
The ambulance door opened, and Ning Dujuan was already inside, her IV drip being changed. She forced a trusting smile at Dongbao: "Thank you."
Dongbao and Grandma Tong leaned against each other, Dongbao's large body resting on Grandma Tong's thin shoulder, his eyes half-closed in sleep.
Standing beside the ambulance, Chen Zhenzhu took out the last piece of orange hard candy from her pocket and stuffed it into Dongbao's hand: "I'll come see you when I'm done with this and bring you lots more candy."
Dongbao grabbed a piece of candy, unwrapped it, and fed it to Grandma Tong. Grandma Tong wouldn't eat it, so he offered it to Ning Dujuan. Ning Dujuan also refused, so he carefully put it in his mouth, chewed it a few times, and smiled brightly, saying, "Dongbao is content, this is enough."
Grandma Tong reminded Dongbao, "Quickly thank them. If it weren't for their protection, you would have been arrested long ago."
Dongbao thought for a moment, then, imitating the way she did on TV, clasped her hands together and said, "Thank you, thank you, Your Honor... Your Honor!"
Xiao Bai chuckled, and Chen Zhenzhu smiled as she closed the door: "You're welcome. Thank you for everything Dongbao has done, and thank you, Grandma, for raising such a wonderful Dongbao."
Dongbao, who rarely receives praise, scratched his head and grinned foolishly, his sleepiness completely gone.
After watching them leave, Shen Zhenzhu also got into the police car.
Lu Ye drove the car, while Chen Zhenzhu and Xiaobai sat in the back chatting about the details of the case.
Sitting in the passenger seat, Zhao Qiqi clutched her hungry stomach and said, "Both Jiang Yuan'an and his son have mental illnesses, so can they be exonerated?"
"Not necessarily. Everyone believes that mental illness does not incur criminal responsibility, but there are prerequisites. People with intermittent mental illness who commit crimes while mentally sound, as well as mentally ill people who have not completely lost the ability to recognize or control their behavior, should bear criminal responsibility, but may be given a lighter or reduced punishment."
Shen Zhenzhu said, "Jiang Yuan'an showed signs of 'surrender' and self-control at the crime scene, but even when he was conscious, he knew he was interfering with the crime. The medicine packet found in the house was taken on the spot, perhaps intentionally to escape punishment. Therefore, this point requires a rigorous psychiatric evaluation before a conclusion can be reached. Once the evaluation results are available, they will have a significant impact on the verdict."
"Ah, no wonder he said he was going to get a blood test. After taking the medicine, the drug components will definitely be found in his blood." Xiaobai took out a few jelly candies from his pocket, distributed them to them, and ate one himself, saying, "Then Jiang Yuan'an should be able to do it. His schizophrenia has caused his memory to be fragmented, so maybe he can really escape."
Shen Zhenzhu shared her analysis: "I think he doesn't have schizophrenia, but rather 'dissociative identity disorder,' also known as dual personality disorder. The Jiang Yuan'an that Dongbao calls 'elder brother' is the primary personality, while the second brother who committed the crime is the secondary personality. The primary personality was initially completely unaware of this and unable to control it, so it should be considered to lack criminal responsibility and not need to bear legal responsibility."
Xiao Bai rummaged through her bag, pulled out her notebook, opened it, and wrote it down. She whispered, "I've only ever seen people like that on TV."
Lu Ye, who was driving in front, chimed in, "I've been doing this for so many years, and this is the first time I've ever encountered something like this."
Zhao Qiqi was also amazed: "This is truly rare. Could it be that mental illness can be hereditary?"
Lu Ye said, "I think there are many types of mental illness, and we can't generalize."
Shen Zhenzhu said from behind, "Yes, speaking of schizophrenia alone, I have seen medical reports that schizophrenia is not solely determined by one parent. It is more of a cumulative genetic factor that provides a basis for easy infection. If it is familial, there is a high probability of inheritance, rather than the disease itself being inherited."
The police convoy drove along the road, and before they knew it, night had fallen. The last aromas of spicy hot pot and lamb skewers wafted from the roadside night stalls, and the north wind blew against the plastic awnings as diners gradually left in twos and threes.
Xiao Bai was still hungry after eating a jelly, so to distract herself, she asked Chen Zhenzhu, "Sister Zhenzhu, is this the reason you mentioned for the split personality?"
Shen Zhenzhu leaned back in her chair and said slowly, "If we consider genetics as the fuse, then Jiang Yuan'an's upbringing was probably the match that lit it. Do you remember what Jiang Yuan'an said to Mai Cuiqiu?"
Zhao Qiqi spoke first: "I remember, it was said that after her divorce, she abandoned him to live with her mentally ill father."
Xiao Bai recalled, "The important thing is that she couldn't bear Lao Jiang's violent behavior when he was having an episode, so she got divorced. After the divorce, Lao Jiang couldn't forget her and might take his anger out on Jiang Yuan'an. It's clear that although he had fatherly love for Jiang Yuan'an, he hoped that she would have a proper job and be able to hold her head high."
Seeing that their analysis was quite good, Shen Zhenzhu waited a moment and said, "So we can conclude that Jiang Yuan'an inherited a high degree of genetic sensitivity from Lao Jiang, and in his upbringing, he developed a fear of Lao Jiang's eccentric personality and unstable emotions. Perhaps he witnessed his father's domestic violence against his mother, and also witnessed Lao Jiang's uncontrolled delusions and hallucinations during his episodes. Coupled with the lack of maternal love and the knowledge that his mother had formed a family with another man and had another boy, he gradually developed dissociative thinking, creating a personality that wanted to destroy everything and escape from pain. He began to focus his attention on Mai Cuiqiu, and knowing that Lao Jiang protected Mai Cuiqiu, he shifted his gaze to the woman in the red scarf."
Zhao Qiqi scratched his head and said, "So schizophrenia and dual personality disorder are different. I thought splitting into two people meant dual personality disorder. They are essentially the same."
“I’ve seen this kind of mental health analysis in a medical journal in Hong Kong, so I’ll explain it to you so you can distinguish the boundaries if you encounter it again in the future.”
Shen Zhenzhu knew that in the 1990s, the two were often confused in the field of mental illness, so she took the opportunity of this case to explain in more detail: "Jiang Yuan'an's dual personality was formed in childhood, while schizophrenia generally develops in late adolescence or even adulthood, around fifteen years of age or older. Dual personality is a break in identity, memory, and self-awareness; it is the splitting of a complete personality into two independent identities. Schizophrenia is the collapse of thinking, perception, and the ability to distinguish reality; it is a split between thought and emotion, and between the inner world and external reality."
Multiple personality disorder involves identity switching, internal dialogue, and a struggle for control over the body. Schizophrenia, on the other hand, involves the perception that voices originate externally, that external people are speaking to them, and how this manifests in their emotions and reactions. In short, there are significant differences.
Zhao Qiqi suddenly realized and clapped her hands, saying, "I understand! When Jiang Yuan'an switched identities, that is, when he was having an episode, it could be done silently. And Lao Jiang usually doesn't realize he's having an episode and thinks his delusions are real. Therefore, we can conclude that Lao Jiang is faking his illness!"
Lu Ye turned on his turn signal, waiting to turn left at the intersection. He rested one hand on the back of the passenger seat and turned back to ask in confusion, "How did Dongbao know that his personality had switched?"
Chen Zhenzhu smiled and said, "Dongbao's cognition bypasses the cognitive logic of adults, replacing social logic with the logic of feeling. From a young age, he couldn't understand complex languages, focusing his attention on the other person's eyes, tone and rhythm, posture, and even temperament to distinguish whether the other person was praising him or scolding him. He believes that the kitten can talk and is his friend, so for him, it is not unacceptable for two people to live in one body. He likes the older brother but doesn't like the younger brother, and he pays extra attention to distinguishing between them. This is an irreplaceable direct feeling, not belonging to any adult under social discipline. To put it simply, his insight is not in cognition itself but in the purity of his heart, bypassing all interference to reach the essence."
Xiao Bai laughed and said, "It can also kidnap people, making the bad guys fail again and again."
Zhao Qiqi rubbed his hands and said, "I'd like to meet that Cat King. Even Dongbao is afraid of him, so he must look terrifying and arrogant."
Dongbao is afraid of...
Xiao Bai glanced at Chen Zhenzhu silently. Not only was she terrifying in appearance, but she was also perhaps a bit arrogant.
Under the streetlights at the entrance of the Liancheng Criminal Investigation Brigade, Director Liu and Guo Daye, among others, stood.
The two men beamed with joy upon learning that the missing person had been successfully rescued.
Qian Minghai also arrived with the convoy; he needed to complete some formalities overnight.
As Qian Minghai got out of the car, Director Liu walked over and shook his hand: "The renowned Attorney Qian, I've heard so much about you."
Qian Minghai was flattered and said, "Director Liu, you flatter me."
Director Liu said with a smile, "You flatter me. I heard you solved the case, so I came to congratulate you."
Qian Minghai's face instantly turned extremely embarrassed: "Um... it was a momentary oversight, I really didn't expect that."
"I understand. If you stand by the river long enough, you're bound to get your shoes wet," Director Liu said with a kind smile.
Qian Minghai was even more embarrassed after he instantly realized what was happening.
He does like to boss around the investigators, but I didn't expect Director Liu to be so disrespectful.
Shen Zhenzhu got out of the car, saluted Director Liu, and said proudly, "Director Liu, we're back."
Director Liu stepped forward and patted Chen Zhenzhu heavily on the shoulder: "Good, at least the provincial department has given us an explanation. Tonight—"
Shen Zhenzhu said, "The case has a significant impact, and we want to work overtime tonight to hear the case and issue the police report as soon as possible."
Director Liu said, "Okay, thank you for your hard work. I'll get some fruit for your team later."
Shen Zhenzhu quickly said, "Thank you, Director Liu, but it's no need."
Lu Ye parked the car and leaned out of the driver's side window: "No need, Director Liu, you're too kind."
Xiao Bai got out of the car and secretly stuck out her tongue, feeling her mouth get sore again.
As she went upstairs, Shen Zhenzhu said regretfully, "If I had known I wouldn't be able to eat all day, I should have called Sixth Sister to send some boxed lunches over."
"They must have closed up shop by now," Zhao Qiqi said, clutching her stomach. "My stomach is cramping from hunger."
Upon entering the office, everyone jostled to open the pantry, only to be dumbfounded. The pantry hadn't been touched in a long time; it was completely empty.
Lu Ye glanced at the person upstairs who was equally busy and nowhere to be seen, and was angry at their lack of ambition.
"Hey, you guys are back? Did you solve the case?" Tian Yongfeng stood at the door of the fourth team's office, holding a bag of dried fruit. "These were a gift from my comrades. You guys can have a taste."
Shen Zhenzhu and the others were so hungry their eyes were practically glowing green. Before Tian Yongfeng could even introduce them, the bag in his arms was gone.
Tian Yongfeng followed them inside and saw that each of them had grabbed a handful. He quickly said, "Hey, why are you so hungry? These are macadamia nuts. The outer shell is as hard as a walnut. You have to use a screwdriver to pry them open. I'll go get some right now."
He turned and went back into the corridor, walking quickly towards his office.
On the way, I ran into Xiao Min and clicked my tongue twice, saying, "Did you see that? When I looked into the parking lot, I thought a pack of green-eyed wolves had come."
Xiao Min suddenly realized: "No wonder Director Liu was laughing so heartily in his office. He solved the missing persons case. Now we can have a good New Year."
"Who can argue with that?"
Tian Yongfeng returned to the Second Team's office from the Fourth Team's office, exchanged a few words with the office staff, and returned to the Fourth Team's office less than ten minutes later, only to be dumbfounded by the empty bag.
The desks of all four teams were covered with fruit shells. Shen Zhenzhu and the others were munching on macadamia nuts, and with a crack, the macadamia nut split open, revealing the white flesh inside. Shen Zhenzhu chewed for a moment, then looked up and spread her hands: "Is there anything else to eat?"
"Ha, a whole room full of macaws." Tian Yongfeng listened to the constant clicking sounds coming from the office, put the screwdriver back in his pocket, and gave a thumbs up: "These are all for you."
After eating the last pearl, Chen Zhenzhu felt extremely uncomfortable.
Although there was little dried fruit, it whetted their appetites, making the four teams even hungrier.
It's 11 p.m.
Led by Chen Zhenzhu, they were like a blazing fire when gathered, and like countless stars when scattered. The landlord's family had run out of food. The four groups scrambled for food, running wildly throughout the building.
Lu Ye even went to Grandpa Guo's office, which he usually least wanted to visit, twice.
In the nearest office of Team Three, Park Heung-sung, who had just finished working overtime, had just finished a phone call with his girlfriend and was being checked up on by her when he turned around and saw Zhao Qiqi standing in front of the cabinet where the lunchbox was hidden.
No one in Team Three noticed the dumplings made by their partner, but Team Four couldn't let them see them.
"What are you doing?" Park Heung-sung snapped back, "What's up?"
Zhao Qiqi said in a muffled voice, "Amitabha, I'm leaving."
"What kind of monsters and demons?" Park Heung-sung walked up to the cabinet and realized that there were only three dumplings left out of the six he had saved up for dinner. "Stop! Where are my dumplings?!"
Zhao Qiqi quickly left the crime scene, and Park Heung-sung, enraged, chased after her.
In the blink of an eye, Chen Zhenzhu brushed past Park Heung-sung: "That's outrageous, I'll talk to him!"
"No, where did you come from again?" Park Heung-sung turned around and looked at the office in astonishment.
I hurried back to the cabinet, opened the lunchbox, and lo and behold, all three dumplings were gone.
Park Heung-sung laughed in exasperation: "No wonder these donkeys can solve cases; they can find anything they've hidden."
Chen Zhenzhu smacked her lips as she left, wiped her mouth, and clasped her hands together.
Sorry, sister-in-law, it's actually beef filling, thank goodness it's a bit salty.
......
That night, Shen Zhenzhu and the fourth team interrogated Jiang Yuan'an and Lao Jiang overnight.
The interrogation was conducted in the same manner as in the tenement courtyard. Jiang Yuan'an was in an abnormal mental state, experiencing memory gaps and identity switching.
When he was lucid, Jiang Yuan'an stared dejectedly at the desk lamp and murmured, "I'm almost forgetting what happened when I was a child. Every time Dongbao said he missed his mother, I missed her too. Dongbao was only taken care of by my mother for a short time, and he can't forget her, let alone me."
He lowered his head, looking at the bandage on his right arm, which was still seeping blood. "Jiang Yuan'an" hadn't caused any trouble for a while, perhaps realizing that there was no need to make a fuss anymore.
"When my dad was lucid when I was little, he was a very, very good person. But when he was mentally unstable, he would tell me day and night that many people looked down on him, that many people cursed him behind his back. He would also say that my mother said he was poor and crazy and didn't want him anymore. I know my mother never said anything like that; she was so gentle. But every night, when everything was quiet, my dad would strangle me half to death, forbidding me to ask for help, forcing me to admit that my mother had said those things. Do you know how scared I was? But the next day, he would become a kind and good father again..."
Later, I resented her too. Why did she bring me into this world? Why leave me alone to face him? Gradually, in my memory, my father seemed less insane; he was always a good person... Now I know, there was another person inside me who bore all the pain for me... Captain Chen, why is life so painful? Why live at all?
Suddenly, "Jiang Yuan'an" said in a strange voice, "If you don't want to be born, then disappear and give me your body."
Jiang Yuan'an shook his head desperately: "No, I can't give it to you, I can't let you go and kill people!"
Jiang Yuan'an tilted his head, staring intently at Chen Zhenzhu opposite him, and curled his lips into a strange smile: "You're not ordinary either. What exactly are you?"
Shen Zhenzhu chuckled and said, "I am the one who shot you, Shen Zhenzhu from the Liancheng Major Crimes Unit."
Jiang Yuan'an let out a low laugh and said in a strange tone, "Truly remarkable."
Shen Zhenzhu slowly narrowed her eyes and said, "Since you refuse to confess to the crime, there's no need to continue this conversation."
She stepped out of "Jiang Yuan'an's" sight, pushed open the door, and disappeared into the light.
Having seized control, Jiang Yuan'an shouted at the door, "Shoot us! I want to go to hell with him! He's a devil, a devil!"
The operators passing by in the corridor couldn't help but glance at them.
Fourth Team Office.
“I’ve decided to initiate a forensic psychiatric evaluation.” Shen Zhenzhu sat at her desk, signed her name, and handed it to Xiaobai: “The transcript is also an important case file for the evaluators to review. They will analyze Jiang Yuan’an’s thought process and mental state during the interrogation.”
Xiao Bai took the "Application for Forensic Psychiatric Evaluation" and asked Chen Zhenzhu, "Is a written record enough?"
Chen Zhenzhu put away her pen, looked up and said, "To conduct the appraisal, we still need a mental examination and a series of auxiliary examinations. Once the results are available, an appraisal certificate will be issued before proceeding with the next steps. Please remember not to do it the other way around, or there will be errors in the procedure that would be unfair."
Xiao Bai nodded: "Understood."
Lu Ye stretched and said, "Whether the father and son will face criminal charges or be transferred to compulsory medical treatment depends on this."
......
As dawn broke, the goldfish in the fish tank swam lazily. The water plants swayed gently, occasionally trembling from the rising bubbles.
Chen Zhenzhu yawned while leaning over her desk.
Xiao Bai, instead of returning to his dormitory, fell asleep wrapped in his police coat in front of the small stove. Zhao Qiqi went to stake out Sixth Sister's shop, while Lu Ye, pinching the bridge of his nose, was still writing a case statement.
"Captain Chen, is the deputy captain really going to be in charge of this kind of written work?"
Shen Zhenzhu squinted and started snoring. Anyway, she hadn't done it back then.
Lu Ye went over to take a look and noticed that her eyes were moving around erratically under her eyelids. He glanced at the ceiling but managed to suppress the urge to pinch her nose.
After sleeping for two hours, Chen Zhenzhu got up early in the morning and called Cheng Xiao, the psychological consultant of the provincial department.
The key to solving this case lies with Dongbao; without him, the victims would likely have been murdered.
After truthfully recounting her case in the case materials, Shen Zhenzhu wanted to do something for Dongbao.
One week later.
The snowstorm has stopped.
Shen Zhenzhu finally obtained the contact information of a mental health expert recommended by Cheng Xiao, who was said to be very prestigious in the field of intellectual disability.
After finishing her work, Shen Zhenzhu said goodbye to Lu Ye and left the criminal investigation team to visit Dongbao and the others at the hospital.
When I arrived at the People's Hospital, there were already long lines of patients at the registration desk.
We went around to the inpatient department and went up to the third floor.
"Dongbao said, 'No work, no food,' and doesn't want you to treat Dongbao's illness for free." Dongbao's voice was still so penetrating that Chen Zhenzhu could hear it clearly as she walked down the corridor.
The "Red Scarf Disappearance Case" was solved in the shortest possible time, and newspapers were filled with descriptions of the deeds of a "hero Dongbao," with positive public opinion towards him.
Inevitably, some people will try to take advantage of the situation.
Chen Zhenzhu pushed open the ward door, where a CEO, enthusiastically promoting his company's medical products, was still persuading her: "We'll treat you completely free of charge, for life, understand? You won't have to pay for our products for the rest of your life. All we need is for you to cooperate with me to take a few photos, and your grandmother can take them too—"
"Keep it for yourself." Chen Zhenzhu interrupted the sharp-mouthed, monkey-faced pharmaceutical executive and shouted down the corridor, "Security, there are salespeople here, kick them out."
The man with the pointed mouth and monkey-like face was not good at talking to Chen Zhenzhu. He curled his lip, picked up the gift bag on the ground, and said, "Don't bother inviting people. I'll go by myself."
Dongbao clapped her hands and said, "Mom, you're here! Dongbao missed you!"
Shen Zhenzhu took a large piece of chocolate out of her pocket and handed it to him, then turned to Ning Dujuan and asked, "How are you feeling?"
Ning Dujuan had regained consciousness, and her skin had regained some color. She smiled bitterly and said, "Losing a hand is better than losing my life."
The man feeding her next to her was her husband. He stood up and greeted Shen Zhenzhu honestly, "Captain Shen, you're here again."
Shen Zhenzhu pointed at Dongbao and said, "An expert will come over to take a look at him later."
"Girl, you've come." Grandma Tong looked at Chen Zhenzhu with gratitude on her face.
"Hello, Grandma Tong, how are you today?"
"Great! Hot porridge is so comforting."
After examination, it was found that Grandma Tong's lungs were not in good condition, with some inflammation, and she was also somewhat malnourished. There were no other major problems. She is currently staying in the hospital for recuperation.
Knowing that the Municipal Bureau had given her a bonus and medical reward, Grandma Tong was initially embarrassed to spend public funds. Later, she came to terms with it and told Chen Zhenzhu that she would accept the treatment properly so that she could take care of Dongbao for a few more years if she lived a few more years.
Chen Zhenzhu chatted with Grandma Tong and Dongbao for over an hour. After receiving a call informing her that Professor Zhao had arrived at the hospital, she went out to meet him.
Professor Zhao spoke with Dongbao alone for a long time to conduct a preliminary diagnosis.
When Shen Zhenzhu saw Professor Zhao come out, she stood guard at the door and asked, "How is Dongbao?"
Professor Zhao shook his head: "It's not very optimistic. It might only increase a little. At present, the IQ of a five-year-old can at most reach that of a seven- or eight-year-old."
"Seven or eight years old is fine; at least he has some self-care ability," Chen Zhenzhu said earnestly. "I hope you can help me; he is—"
“He is Dongbao, a hero. If it weren’t for him, I wouldn’t have rushed over here.” Professor Zhao said with a smile, “I understand how you feel. Please rest assured, Captain Chen, since I promised you, I will do my best to help Dongbao.”
"thank you."
"Don't mention it. I'll go back now to work on a phased treatment plan, and I'll ask you to review it when it's ready. At that time, Dongbao will need to come to our place for further diagnosis."
"Okay, shall I take you back?"
"No need. I think Dongbao likes you a lot. Spending more time talking to him will do you good."
"Alright, Professor Zhao, take care." Shen Zhenzhu saw Professor Zhao off to the hospital entrance. After he got into his car, her cell phone rang.
Ring ring,
Ring ring.
Shen Liuhe's voice came from the mobile phone: "Hey, didn't you say you were going to bring Dongbao to the restaurant for dinner? What time is it? Ask him what he wants to eat and come over quickly."
"Wait a minute, I'll go ask right away." Shen Zhenzhu returned to the ward and handed the mobile phone to Dongbao: "Tell Sixth Sister what you want to eat, and you can have it all later."
Dongbao's eyes widened slightly, not quite understanding why a mobile phone could grant wishes. He hugged the phone and said, "Dongbao wants to eat tofu."
Shen Liuhe laughed on the other end of the phone: "Dongbao loves tofu so much? How would you like to eat tofu made?"
Dongbao said expectantly, "Dongbao wants to eat meat-flavored tofu."
Grandma Tong explained from the bed, "He can only eat meat during the New Year. Kind people will give him a few bites. But tofu is different. I will braise it for him like meat, and he feels that it is just as satisfying as meat."
Chen Zhenzhu felt a pang of sadness.
Shen Liuhe on the other end of the phone couldn't take it anymore and shouted, "Dongbao, we're not eating tofu today. Sixth Sister will make you sweet and sour pork, steamed pork with rice flour, boiled pork, garlic pork belly, and sweet and sour pork!"
"Mother...Mother..." Dongbao was so excited that she couldn't speak coherently. She looked at Chen Zhenzhu and blurted out from her limited vocabulary, "You are even more generous than Mother. You...you are Auntie, Auntie!"
"Finally, I called the right one." Ning Dujuan turned her head and laughed. "Food really does have power."
