The stern-looking older policeman realized he had frightened the child and forced a smile that looked more like a grimace. He gently patted Yin Yin on the head, and Yin Yin smiled even more ingratiatingly, making the policemen feel a pang of sadness.
A six-year-old child should be carefree like a little princess, not someone who knows how to read people's expressions or how to please adults. This little girl must have been beaten and is afraid of being beaten.
"He's a real piece of trash, he deserves to be stabbed to death." A young policeman muttered under his breath.
The older policeman glared at him sternly, and the younger policeman dared not utter a word, knowing that he had brought up subjective bias and was not a qualified policeman.
In fact, the senior police officer had already noticed the suspicious points. He had been handling cases for many years and his intuition was very sharp. The most suspicious thing in this case was the thirty-two stab wounds. Each stab avoided vital organs. How could it be such a coincidence?
Moreover, Jiang Xingzhi didn't make a sound for half an hour; only Lu Qinghua called out. Given Jiang Xingzhi's irritable nature, how could he not make a sound?
There are actually quite a few suspicious points, and even the older police officers can roughly deduce the course of the case. Lu Qinghua's experience is indeed very tragic and pitiful, but she is not entirely innocent tonight, though it is still understandable.
Encountering a scumbag like Jiang Xingzhi would drive any normal person insane.
Lu Qinghua stayed in the detention center. Yinyin didn't want to be separated from her mother, so she hugged Lu Qinghua's leg in fear and cried silently. Unlike other children who would scream, this girl cried silently, which made her even more pitiful to see.
"Mom is working here. Yinyin and Auntie go home first. Mom will pick you up after I finish work, okay?" Lu Qinghua coaxed the child.
But Yinyin wasn't so easily coaxed; she shook her head vigorously, "This isn't where Mommy works."
Lu Qinghua has a fiery temper. After a few coaxing words, she became impatient and her face darkened as she was about to explode. Ye Qingqing glared at her and spoke first, "Yinyin, be good. Your mother has changed jobs. She will come to pick you up in a few days. Your aunt promises you."
Yin Yin's expression became hesitant. She liked her aunt and felt that her aunt would not lie to her.
Ye Qingqing then said, "Your aunt has a younger brother and a younger sister. They are both very naughty, and your aunt is too busy to take care of them. Can you help your aunt and take care of your younger brother and sister?"
Yinyin nodded obediently, "Okay."
She's willing to work, as long as she doesn't get beaten.
Lu Qinghua breathed a sigh of relief, hugged his daughter, and instructed her, "When you get to your uncle's house, do more chores, eat less, and be considerate of your younger siblings..."
Ye Qingqing said irritably, "Yinyin is much more sensible than you, she doesn't need you to tell her what to do."
It's like they're going to her house to be maids or servants. Even if there were a hundred Yinyins, her family could afford to raise them. Besides, Yinyin is really lovable and much more sensible than her two little devils. She'd be happy to raise her.
Ye Qingqing went to the supermarket and bought a change of clothes and daily necessities, which she gave to Lu Qinghua. Not wanting to say much in front of the police, she simply said, "Yinyin, don't worry. I'll make sure she has enough to eat and drink. The doctor just said Jiang Xingzhi's injuries aren't serious, he's fine. Don't overthink it..."
Lu Qinghua nodded. She understood what Ye Qingqing meant. It meant that their plan was half successful. Thirty-odd stabs hadn't resulted in a death, which would change the nature of the case. She had that much legal knowledge.
Luckily, Ye Qingqing provided the diagram; otherwise, given her skill level, she might have killed the person with just ten stabs.
Ye Qingqing and the others took the children back to the compound first. They needed to tell the old man. Yinyin clung tightly to Ye Qingqing, her body tense and very uneasy.
