i'm not a bad man

Chapter 253

Qiao Jiao's words had touched upon my pain, so much so that the hand holding the cigarette hung in mid-air, and she looked at her silently. She did not smile, and looked at me silently as well. I don’t know whether she is sad or happy, but I must be sad, because the embarrassment that Qiao Jiao said has become the source of all evil in my heart. I don’t know how to eliminate it, and neither does Lu Xi. So, the happiness and expectation I gained last night seemed to have become a kind of drug addiction. I wanted to indulge in it, but I didn't dare to get involved again easily.

I finally spoke to Qiao Jiao: "You can laugh if you want. This is a joke to begin with."

"I actually don't want to laugh that much."

After saying that, Qiao Jiao took the cigarette out of my hand, put it out in the ashtray, and then said to me: "Let's go to the hospital."

"Aren't you going?"

"I'll go with you, and I'll go and have a look at my brain myself. I always feel a little moody recently, and I don't know what kind of disease this is in medicine."

"It must be a form of mental illness."

I originally just wanted to joke with Qiao Jiao, but she became depressed inexplicably. She patted her forehead with both hands and said, "Yeah, if I wasn't mentally ill, how could I live like this?" Woolen cloth?"

I couldn't help but sneer: "I've never thought there was anything wrong with your life. I've never seen anyone living a more comfortable life than you!"

Qiao Jiao shook her head and replied: "I did live a very comfortable life before. Everything started to change when I gave up the civil service. My dad was actually very satisfied with the fact that I passed the civil service exam, so my pocket money He gave me all the money at that time... You may not know us Shandong people very well. For us, the end of our career is establishment, and I was admitted as a civil servant with the best benefits. If I didn't give up this Position, work step by step, and my dad will not force me to study abroad..." After a pause, Qiao Jiao said with a melancholy smile: "Now let's think about my time working in a government agency. During those days, I still felt quite comfortable... I hardly had to do anything, and I had a lot of time to spend every day, and no one said that I was not doing my job properly. It was the least oppressive period in my life. I would wake up early every day After work, I eat, drink, and play games with my friends. Occasionally, I can take a long vacation and travel wherever I want... everything is so normal!"

"Isn't it your own choice to give up being a civil servant?"

Qiao Jiao looked even more depressed: "So, I said I have a mental problem and I must go to the hospital."

……

Qiao Jiao and I drove to the largest public hospital in the county. I went to the orthopedics department, and she actually registered to go to the psychiatry department. We parted at the elevator entrance because the orthopedics department I wanted to go to was on the sixth floor, and my elevator was only on the sixth floor. Double-decker parking, but her psychiatric department is on the ninth floor.

As I expected, I only suffered some serious skin injuries and no injuries to my muscles or bones, so the doctor just prescribed some topical bruises and told me not to do too heavy physical labor in the near future. , so as not to aggravate the injury.

Qiao Jiao turned out to be even slower than me. I sat in the waiting area of ​​the lobby, in a daze, waiting for her...

It was during this process that the police officer in charge of the case called me, and I started to feel emotional. Of course I didn’t want to be beaten for no reason. I had to know who was targeting me behind the scenes. .

After getting through the phone, I called the other party politely and waited for his notification to me.

The other party seemed to have lit a cigarette, and then he said to me: "We interrogated Wu Bo (the friend Chang Yuli entrusted to take us out of the scenic spot) overnight yesterday, and then we also called in surveillance cameras based on your driving trajectory. ... This matter indeed has nothing to do with Wu Bo. The van has already started following you when you arrived at Shimiao Village after you left the scenic spot... This should have been planned in advance. If it was Wu Bo, He must send you to the place before he can call them and tell them your location. He can't call them in front of you and let those lawless people do violence to you... Can you understand this logic? "?" After thinking for a moment, I replied: "I can understand..."

"Well, we also asked our colleagues from the traffic police team to verify the license plate number of the white van, and it proved to be a hoax... The place where you had the accident was relatively remote, and the monitoring system was not dense enough... so we did not find out that they had committed violence against you. The surveillance footage... Therefore, this matter is a bit tricky, I can only inform you of the temporary investigation... We will continue to investigate some subsequent cases."

I responded, feeling a little disappointed. This seemed to be turning into an unsolved case.

"By the way, have you gone to the hospital for a checkup?"

"I'm in the hospital. It's a serious skin injury."

After the other party was silent for a while, he said to me: "If it does not constitute a minor injury, even if we find the person, there is a high probability that it will be dealt with according to the Public Security Management Punishment Law, and in the end, mediation will be the main method."

I immediately retorted: "Their methods are so professional and there are so many people. I have reason to suspect that they are evil forces... Moreover, I was not slightly injured, not because they were merciful, but because we used the most reasonable method to kill them." To avoid danger, their motives are definitely very bad!”

"These are your subjective thoughts. How to determine the specifics? We have to wait until we find the suspect before we can have any results... Just wait for now. We will definitely try our best to find the suspect."

"Waiting again?"

The other party was stunned for a moment and replied: "It takes time to investigate any case. I hope you can understand... If you are really emotional, you can complain to our superiors, but before that, I still have to tell the truth. Let me tell you, there are no problems with our case handling process.”

"I have no emotions, I'm just shocked by this incident. We came to invest in the small town. While we make money, we also want to contribute to the economic development of the small town. If you can only give us such an investment environment, I My friends and I will definitely consider this matter again."

The other party did not expect that I would use this to put pressure, so after being obviously stunned, he replied: "As a public servant, first of all, I would like to express my gratitude for your investment in the small town. Secondly, I promise you again that you are here We will definitely pay attention to the things we encounter, and please be patient. The case is relatively complicated now, and there are almost no clues that can solve the case. We really need some time to investigate."

"Okay, then I will wait patiently. I believe you will eventually give us a satisfactory result."

……

After ending the call, I let out the annoyance accumulated in my body. I really don't want my life in a small town to always be shrouded in a layer of fog, but judging from the current situation, I can't get rid of this layer of fog. I can only place my hope on others to clear the fog, but I am not sure if they will really try their best, so this feeling is very bad!

……

Just when I was in a daze because of this incident, Qiao Jiao finally came to the hall with a list. I paid special attention to her expression. She had a dark face like me, and she didn't know what the psychiatric diagnosis was for her. What was the result?
