Chapter 123 Memory Awakened
Mo Jie woke up, and Su Xiaoxiao took Xiao Yu to the hospital. She had something to confirm with him.
Mo Jie was lying on the hospital bed, his face pale, with an IV in his hand, but he was conscious.
Although he was shot in the chest, his heart was not injured and his life was no longer in danger after the bullet was removed.
When he saw Su Xiaoxiao and the others come in, he was not surprised and signaled to the nurse to raise his body a little higher.
"I have something to ask you, can you answer it now?"
"can."
"I want to ask you, has Yue Chenglin lost a part of his memory? Does he not remember what happened back then?"
A bitter smile appeared on Mo Jie's face. It was hard to describe what happened back then.
After the celebration banquet, Yue Chenglin seemed to have become a different person, shutting himself in his room all day, not going out and refusing to speak. They asked the teacher and found out that he felt guilty for not sending Jiang Minmin home that night, so he blamed himself for what happened to Jiang Minmin.
His sister even asked him to go and counsel him, but it didn't work very well. He didn't take it too seriously, thinking it would get better over time.
Unexpectedly, that day, he received news from his sister that Cheng Lin had committed suicide by cutting his wrists at home, and left a suicide note.
It was this suicide note that shocked the sister. She never thought that Cheng Lin would do such a thing. But she only had this one son, and she couldn't just watch him die, so the sister begged him to save Cheng Lin.
Later, they found out that Chenglin was suffering from PTSD, and as for the memory loss...
"In fact, I bribed the doctor and used hypnosis to seal that memory deep in his mind. The doctor said that the memory is still in his brain, but it is only temporarily sealed. If there is a trigger or strong stimulation, he will still remember it."
In fact, this is what Mo Jie regrets the most. If he had been more resolute and brought Cheng Lin to surrender, the truth would not have been revealed until 20 years later, and he would not have made so many wrong things.
As Mo Jie spoke, he became a little agitated, and Su Xiaoxiao quickly helped him lie down.
"Take care of your health first, and we'll talk about other things when you get to the bureau."
Su Xiaoxiao now understood Cheng Xinyi's purpose. Cheng Xinyi was a smart person. First her confession was rejected, and then her threats were not responded to, as if nothing had happened. She must have guessed or found out that Yue Chenglin had lost his memory.
When they went to her to investigate what happened that year, she must have become alert, knowing that it would not be so easy to escape this time, so she threw out Yue Chenglin from the beginning and drew their attention to Yue Chenglin.
However, the problem is that Yue Chenglin has lost his memory, and she cannot hand over the photos from that year to the police because she cannot explain the source of the photos. Regardless of whether the case is related to her or not, she cannot escape the charge of covering up the case.
She had to think of another way. Seeing that they had not made any movement in the past few days and did not seem to have found anything related to Yue Chenglin, she threw out the clue of a figure she had seen before. One was to test the attitude of the police, and the other was to draw the police's attention to Yue Chenglin again.
But these are not the point. The point is that Cheng Xinyi knew that Yue Chenglin had lost his memory and that he had committed self-harm because of it.
Yue Chenglin's attending physician told them that two years ago, someone had also inquired about Yue Chenglin through her. That person was a doctor in the same hospital, but he was inquiring on behalf of someone else.
Needless to say, she also knew that person was Cheng Xinyi.
Next, what she had to do was to awaken Yue Chenglin's memory, make him admit his crime, or induce him to commit self-harm again.
Judging from the fact that she framed Jiang Minmin out of jealousy, she is an extremely self-centered person. She does not allow others to be stronger than her, nor does she allow others to go against her will. So, now she is pushing the crime of the past onto Yue Chenglin, more out of revenge, revenge for his short-sightedness, both back then and now.
But she didn't know that they had already guessed the truth of that year, and now all they lacked was evidence.
"Sister, what should we do next?"
"Sit back and wait."
Now that they knew what Cheng Xinyi was thinking, it would be easier to deal with. She was not afraid that Cheng Xinyi would do something, but that she would do nothing. If she did nothing, they really would have no way to deal with her.
Sure enough, just as Su Xiaoxiao expected, there was soon movement from Yue Chenglin's side. He received a courier. It was said that his expression changed drastically after receiving it, and he got very angry in the office.
What Yue Chenglin received was a photo. In the photo, there was a man pressing on Jiang Minmin. There was no way he could not recognize that the man was himself.
However, he couldn't remember when this happened at all, and his head hurt when he tried hard to think about it.
At this time, a phone call came in. It was Qiu Xiaofeng. He said that he hadn't seen him for a long time and wanted to get together with Cheng Xinyi.
It just so happened that Yue Chenglin also had something to ask him. It was Cheng Xinyi and Qiu Xiaofeng who sent Jiang Minmin home that night. If something really happened at that time, they should know.
They met in a cafe, and the three-person gathering ended with Yue Chenglin's breakdown. Cheng Xinyi successfully reminded him of what happened that year.
Yue Chenglin walked out in a trance, ignoring the calls of the two people behind him. Cheng Xinyi looked at his back with a smug smile on her face. Anyone who offended her would not have a good ending.
But she didn't expect that when she turned around, she found Su Xiaoxiao and the others standing behind her.
"Officer Su, why are you here too? What a coincidence?" Cheng Xinyi smiled.
"It's not a coincidence at all. We came here specifically to find you." Su Xiaoxiao didn't smile, but just looked at her coldly.
"What do you want from me?"
"You'll know what's going on when you come back with us."
In the interrogation room, Cheng Xinyi was sitting on a chair in handcuffs.
"Officer Su, what do you mean?"
"What do you mean you don't know?"
"I don't know what law I broke, and the police can't arrest people for no reason."
"Okay, then I'll tell you what law you broke."
"Twenty-one years ago, on the night of the celebration banquet, you and Qiu Xiaofeng conspired to deal with Jiang Minmin. Originally, you wanted to find Song Zhi, but you tried to test him and provoke his anger towards Jiang Minmin. However, at this time, he had a good impression of Jiang Minmin because of her excellence.
This made you even more jealous, and seeing that you couldn't provoke him, you decided to take action together with Qiu Xiaofeng.
Qiu Xiaofeng is a person with a dependent personality. He will do whatever you say. As long as you think someone is bad, he thinks they are bad too. He is willing to help you with whatever you want to do, and it is still the same until now.
That night, you pretended to send Jiang Minmin home, and after breaking up with her at the fork in the road, you didn't actually leave. Instead, you knocked her unconscious while she wasn't paying attention."
"What a joke! You're not going to say that I violated her?"
"Isn't it? You lied to Qiu Xiaofeng and said you were just trying to scare her and wouldn't actually hurt her, and you disguised her as a serial criminal so the police wouldn't find out. But in fact, you used this to break Jiang Minmin's body."
Su Xiaoxiao took out an evidence bag with something in it.
