Chapter 357

If she cannot speak, that will be a cruel thing.

Chen Fan stared at some bloodstains on the ground and said, "These belong to a boy."

Old Song nodded.

Afterwards, Chen Fan found some snack bags and inevitably fell into deep thought.

Looking at the bags, he looked at Old Song and said, "Ask you something: when you first told me, who was taking care of this child?"

Old Song instantly sobered up and said directly, "Get in the car, let's go."

Several people got into the car.

The group rushed straight toward the supermarket; the supermarket owner was still organizing things when he saw Old Song approach and said, "What are you doing?"

Old Song said, "We suspect you are involved in child abuse; please come with us."

The man instantly drew a dagger from his person, gestured with it, and ran straight outside.

Before Old Song could react, the dagger stabbed toward Chen Fan; Chen Fan directly grabbed the wrist—Crack!

With one forceful squeeze, the man's wrist instantly shattered.

Afterwards, he grabbed him and threw him straight out.

Such a large man was directly smashed and flown out by Chen Fan, landing on the ground.

Chen Fan quickly ran over, directly stepped down with one foot, and then forcefully controlled the person; Chen Fan had never learned grappling, but he understood it very well.

Only this time, Chen Fan chose not to understand.

Zhang Tianxiong quickly came over, grabbing Chen Fan's arm; Chen Fan exerted force and threw Zhang Tianxiong out.

Old Song said, "Chen Fan, have you gone mad?"

Chen Fan said, "Isn't this about arresting someone?"

Old Song hurried over, put handcuffs on the man, and said, "It is about arresting someone, but your way of arresting someone has gone too far."

"The other party was holding a knife; I subdued him, which complies with the rules."

Seems there's no fault.

Only Old Song, looking at the already flattened wrist, fell into deep thought; just how strong is this fellow Chen Fan?

The man was taken away by Old Song, to the hospital.

Chen Fan said, "I'll go back to compare footprints and fingerprints."

"Mm, you compare them."

Zhang Tianxiong got up from the ground in a daze; how long had it been since someone threw him flying like that?

But this scene, in the audience's eyes, was absolutely explosive.

"Holy crap, damn, is what I'm watching a martial arts film?"

"What's going on? Did Zhang Tianxiong fly out?"

"Oh my god, I didn't even see what happened; Chen Fan subdued the person."

"Wait, who was Zhang Tianxiong protecting? Got it, protecting the criminal from being beaten to death by Chen Fan, right?"

The director was also dumbfounded, pointing at the screen and looking at the operations manager, saying, "This is the little fresh meat you talked about back then?"

The operations manager said, "Do you think he still is?"

The director was speechless and said, "How would I know if he is or not? But this is way too outrageous; before, I hadn't heard that Chen Fan could do this. And if he could do this, why bother being a little fresh meat? Isn't being a martial arts emperor better?"

The operations manager said, "I feel this isn't any kind of martial art; this is a killing technique."

On this side, Chen Fan returned to the Forensic Institute; the two girls didn't dare to look at Chen Fan.

Old Liu walked out and said, "Alright, compare the evidence; make the chain of evidence solid, remember."

Everyone nodded.

Old Liu continued, "Actually, having some special skills in our Fayi Society is normal; having some talents is understandable."

Xiang Qinqin said, "Uh, I seem to have no talents."

Old Liu said, "Don't you know how to suture corpses?"

"That seems right too. Then, Teacher, what do you know how to do?"

Old Liu said, "Uh, I once won second prize in an embroidery competition."

??????

Wait, hold on, your second prize in an embroidery competition—what are you pulling here?

In the observation room, everyone looked at Qin Ming; Qin Ming said, "Uh, my special talent is writing novels."

Pfft, hahahaha.

Everyone in the observation room burst out laughing; well, are forensic experts this competitive now?

What's that mean? If you don't know some special talent, you can't work as a forensic expert, is that it?

Sister Yuanyuan said, "That child?"

Teacher He looked at the scene footage here and said, "I'll ask over there."

The call was made; Teacher He listened to the introduction and said, "Mm, that little girl has poor hearing but can speak; she just hasn't been taught."

On this side, Sister Yuanyuan said, "Is the child really okay?"

"She's fine; she even eats a bit too much and is chubby."

A gentle smile, but seeing it made everyone feel that the story behind Teacher He was even more heartbreaking.

Because that child was taken care of very well, but the one taking care of the child was that boy with a disabled mind.

Qin Ming said, "I thought of something; I know Chen Fan didn't say it."

"What?"

Qin Ming said, "The child's legs were broken by someone, but the child fixed them himself; only the fixing technique was wrong, so the child's legs grew crooked."

?????

Teacher Luo said, "Actually, this case has a hypocritical existence."

Hypocritical?

Yes, the supermarket owner beat the child, but also gave the child other hope to live on.

But after all, this owner beat the child; that is a fact. Were the subsequent events also to save him?

Does kindness exist?

It exists, but not much, just a little bit.

But this cannot stop this owner's sentencing.

This story is very, very long. When night fell, Old Song came over with things and told everyone at the dinner table the whole story from beginning to end.

"The cerebral palsy child was abandoned by people, always eating from a hundred households' tables, but for a period of time, something happened. This child stole things from the shop, then was caught by the owner and beaten..."

"His legs were broken, but the owner said that after discovering the other party had cerebral palsy, he regretted it."

"Every day he thought of ways to make this child earn money. He dared not say his own legs were the ones he broke; sending him to the hospital, he feared being arrested, feared this child would pin the blame on him."

"Later, the owner pondered the bamboo house matter, let the child sell these paper tissues, and then gave the child some things, money and such."

"This child was actually quietly taking care of this girl. The girl didn't understand, but the evidence from the scene there told me that this boy was taking care of this girl."

The words stopped here; even to say, this little girl did not even know she had lost her brother.

Chen Fan said silently, "The reason the owner continued using the child is because this child brought the owner profit, because the owner gained kind evaluations from the four surrounding neighbors, and people consumed more at the shop."

Old Song said, "You saw it?"

'Yes, the secret dwelling in the heart is this: this owner did not possess kindness from the very beginning, because those paper tissues cost very, very little; they were all trash things, but because this child went to sell them, they could be sold at a slightly higher price.'

"Everything he said during the interrogation was just to exonerate himself."

Kindness?

Chen Fan saw no kindness at all.

And Teacher Luo at the dinner table said, "If that is so, I can prosecute this case."

Everyone looked at Teacher Luo.

'Since I came here, since I encountered it, I cannot possibly ignore it. The law seeks the kindness within human nature, but this time I stand on the boy's side; therefore, I do not need to dig for the other party's kindness.'

Chen Fan ate two bites of food and said, "There is one more thing."

Is there more?

Old Song said, "What?"

"The food found in the boy's stomach was actually already wrong; the quantities used were also wrong. These were all leftover rice and leftover dishes. My meaning is that this food had already spoiled. I examined the boy's body; 3.5 is just that his body adapted to these things; it does not represent that others would be fine eating them."

Malice has always existed.
