Chapter 69 Chapter 69 Yang Mazi's Fake Doll
Chapter 69
"Ah! Baby! Baby!"
Yang Mazi's wife held the fake doll in her arms and cried more hysterically.
Yang Mazi apologized to Wen Tingting and the others repeatedly, squeezed into the bedroom, hugged his wife and coaxed her, "Don't cry, Qiuru, the baby just fell asleep, I'll wake him up for you."
He took the fake doll from his wife Wang Qiuru, held it in his arms and started to play with it, then pinched his throat and said crisply: "Mom, Dad, I'm awake——"
Seeing the "child" wake up, Wang Qiuru stopped crying and quickly reached out to the fake doll again: "Come, mommy hold you, mommy hold you."
After this series of reactions, Wen Tingting, Qian Yaguang and Murong all realized that Wang Qiuru seemed to be mentally unstable. But no villager mentioned this.
Yang Mazi coaxed his wife and turned to face the solemn expressions of the police officers. His expression froze for a moment, but he soon smiled again: "Sorry, everyone, please forgive me."
He did not mention anything about Wang Qiuru's abnormal behavior.
He turned back to the sofa and refilled the cold tea for the few people with hot water.
Qian Yaguang stared at Yang Mazi and continued the original topic: "You don't know anything about Mrs. Zhang being murdered?"
"I don't know. I haven't been back to the village since I moved away."
Yang Mazi glanced in the direction of the bedroom, his expression becoming extremely sad: "Comrade Public Security, you should have seen that my wife's condition is serious and she can't leave home without someone."
As he spoke, he covered his face and cried bitterly: "I had already persuaded Aunt Zhang to move away. The people in the village who believed in the First Immortal hated her, and the group of people who believed in the First Immortal hated her too. Someone smashed the windows of her house in the middle of the night, and someone poisoned the chickens and ducks that Aunt Zhang raised to death. I didn't expect... I didn't expect that they would eventually attack Aunt Zhang..."
After Qian Yaguang finished asking questions, Murong asked a few more irrelevant questions.
Before Yang Mazi could answer, Wang Qiuru started crying again in the bedroom. Yang Mazi quickly ran into the bedroom to coax Wang Qiuru.
Qian Yaguang and the others looked at each other and decided to leave.
Before going out, Wen Tingting's eyes fell on the medicine bag hanging at the door, which had the words "City Hospital Psychiatric Department" printed on it. She silently memorized this detail in her heart.
…
When I walked out of Yang Mazi's apartment building, I could still hear Wang Qiuru crying for her child.
Qian Yaguang scratched his ear, his expression somewhat painful: "It seems that we can't get any clues from Yang Mazi. Let's go back to the bureau first and see if Team Qin has caught the immortal disciple."
According to the villagers' confessions and Yang Mazi's statement, the person who killed Zhang Pozi was most likely the Shouxian's men.
Murong did not comment. He was always obedient and would do whatever his leader told him to do.
"But Captain Qian..."
Wen Tingting was hiding something in her heart, and she walked down the stairs very slowly. When she saw Qian Yaguang was about to walk up the last flight of stairs and turn out of the unit door, she still spoke weakly, "I always feel that... Yang Mazi is not right."
According to the records of Zhang Dayong and others, before Yang Mazi's family moved away, Yang Mazi's wife Wang Qiuru was about to give birth.
No villager has ever said that Wang Qiuru had any mental problems.
Why did Wang Qiuru have mental problems, where did the child she was carrying go, and why was she holding a fake doll and crying for her child.
They didn't ask these questions just now.
Yang Mazi seemed to avoid these questions. Every time she wanted to ask them, Yang Mazi would change the subject calmly.
Wen Tingting pointed out her doubts to the two of them one by one.
After hearing her words, Qian Yaguang's dark eyebrows were twisted together again.
He had noticed this just now, but he felt that Wang Qiuru's illness had little to do with the case. In addition, he could see that Yang Mazi was caring and considerate towards Wang Qiuru, so he didn't think of exposing her sad story.
He silently wondered whether there was really any flaw in his previous inquiry.
But Qian Yaguang's facial features are already fierce, and when his eyebrows are furrowed when thinking, he looks even more ferocious.
When Murong and Wen Tingting saw this expression, their hearts skipped a beat.
Wen Tingting was so frightened that her face turned pale, but when she thought of Qin Ye's encouragement, she wanted to speak again and struggled: "Captain Qian...how about we go find Yang Mazi again..."
Before she could finish, Murong quickly pulled her sleeve and interrupted her: "Let's go ask someone else first. It's too presumptuous to ask Yang Mazi directly. Be careful of getting complaints!"
After all, these issues were not closely related to the case. If they really made Yang Mazi angry and he made a scene at the police station, it would be bad for all three of them.
"It was my negligence!"
Qian Yaguang finally came to his senses from his thoughts, slapped his forehead heavily, and said in annoyance, "What you two said makes sense. We do need to ask about Wang Qiuru. But like Murong said, we can ask others first."
After saying that, he did not forget to give Wen Tingting a thumbs up: "Tingting, very meticulous."
He also didn't expect that Wen Tingting, who used to serve as a mute mascot in the team, could now help him point out his mistakes.
As expected...college students who graduated from the Public Security University are different from rough guys like him, they are quite capable!
Wen Tingting heard Qian Yaguang's affirmation again, and she tried hard to suppress the upturned corners of her lips.
…
The three of them walked out of the unit and could still vaguely hear Wang Qiuru's crying.
"It's pitiful that he has to make such a scene several times a day."
"However, although Yang Mazi looks ugly, he has a good heart."
Under the shade of the trees outside the apartment building, a few elderly people were playing chess and chatting idly.
Wen Tingting heard a few people talking about Yang Mazi. She paused and quickly turned back to the elderly people. She squatted down with a smile and said, "Uncle and aunt, are you talking about Yang Mazi? He is my friend."
Seeing this, Qian Yaguang and Murong followed Wen Tingting and sat around the old man.
Wen Tingting looked up at the window of Yang Mazi's house and pretended to speak casually: "I remember Wang Qiuru was in good spirits before, why is she like this now?"
She looked gentle and had a sweet mouth, and with just a few words she made the old men let down their guard.
"Yang Mazi's wife was not ill before? The couple moved in more than half a year ago. At that time, his wife was pregnant and was talking nonsense. Later, I heard that his wife went to the hospital and gave birth to a stillborn baby, and her condition became worse. Then, Yang Mazi bought his wife a fake doll to raise as a baby."
After one old man finished speaking, another old man smacked his lips and said, "But this Yang Mazi is a real man. Since he moved in, he has stayed at home every day to take care of his wife. He has never gone out for a day..."
…
On the other side, the Municipal Bureau.
Qin Ye had just finished interrogating the immortal disciple Chang Ge.
She returned to the office and stood by the small blackboard on the wall for a long time. Finally, she picked up the chalk and crossed out Chang Ge's name in the column of the suspect in the murder of Mrs. Zhang.
After interrogating Chang Ge, although she didn't want to admit it, she had to admit that they were going in the wrong direction this time.
The person who killed Mrs. Zhang was not the immortal disciple as the villagers said.
Qin Ye could not help but hear Brother Chang's frantic shouting again -
“That bad old woman, why should we kill her? Those villagers are so stupid. The First Immortal and I only need a few words to make them sacrifice their own daughter without any doubt. Hahahaha - if anyone was willing to listen to the bad old woman's words, you would not be able to dig out so many corpses from the well, hahahaha -”
"Qin Ye, the First Immortal asked me to tell you that you can't catch us all. As long as the First Immortal exists, we will be by your side, causing one tragic death after another. Unless... unless you die!!!"
She couldn't help but exert a little force in her hand holding the chalk, leaving a striking white spot on the blackboard.
Legal education and anti-cult education for villagers should be put on the agenda as soon as possible. Otherwise, Wen Qun, who is hiding in the gutter, will continue to create such tragedies one after another.
"Team Qin!"
Wen Tingting's call brought her back to her senses from her memories.
After listening to several people report the information they got from Yang Mazi, Qin Ye's lips were tightly pursed into a straight line.
Could it be that the clues regarding the murder of Mrs. Zhang have been lost again?
She was just thinking about whether to go to Yang Mazi's house again to see if there would be any other discoveries, when Wen Tingting raised her hand again: "Captain Qin, I saw a plastic bag from the psychiatric department of the municipal hospital at Yang Mazi's house. I think Wang Qiuru should be receiving treatment there. Why don't we go to the hospital to take a look?"
…
Now that there were no more clues, Qin Ye did not hesitate and approved Wen Tingting's proposal on the spot.
The group soon arrived at the psychiatric department of the city hospital. Qin Ye did not expect that she would see an acquaintance in the psychiatric clinic.
——Xu Libai.
When Xu Libai saw her, a hint of disbelief flashed across his beautiful pupils.
But soon, he smiled appropriately again: "Long time no see."
Several years have passed since the two last met.
Qin Ye keenly noticed that Xu Libai looked less energetic now than a few years ago: "Are you tired from work now?"
She glanced at the steaming coffee on the table and couldn't help but say a few words of concern: "No matter what time it is, your health comes first."
Xu Libai followed her gaze and also saw the cup of coffee.
He realized that Qin Ye might have mistaken him for working here, but he did not explain. He just smiled and teased: "It's really the wheel of fate. It's the turn of the Desperate Detective to advise me to take care of my body."
After saying that, he made way to leave space for Qin Ye and others to enter.
Behind Qin Ye and others, Xu Libai shook his head slightly at another doctor inside.
The other party looked at Qin Ye, then looked at him, and immediately understood what he meant: "Doctor Xu still has work to do, Captain Qin, if you want to know anything, just ask me."
Qin Ye nodded and was about to say goodbye to Xu Libai, but when he turned around, he found that Xu Libai had left at some point.
She had no choice but to turn around and get back to the point: "Do you have a patient named Wang Qiuru here?"
"Yes, there is. I have a deep impression of this patient. At that time, her husband brought her to see me. I asked her to do a full-body examination and found that she had just given birth. But, strangely enough -"
"Her husband initially said that she gave birth to a stillborn baby in our hospital. I asked him to go to the obstetrics and gynecology department to get the files. He then said that the child was born at home, but died at birth. He lied because he was afraid that our hospital would call the police."
