Chapter 1506: And the Forensic Doctor Gives Some Sugar 19

"I heard the Chief wants to suspend you." Jin Chen walked and said to Wu Lin at his side: "Don't worry, I can keep you safe; investigate whatever you want."

"The implication of his words was that he already knew the authority had been used by Wu Lin."

"Wu Lin also realized that as long as Jin Chen entered the office again, Jiang Lu would likely reveal his master's and his past."

"All right, don't hang your face." Jin Chen stood at the doorway and again pinched Wu Lin's cheek: "What you don't want to say now isn't necessarily something the Chief will tell me."

"Moreover, regarding your secret, I still prefer to hear you say it yourself."

"Wu Lin shook off Jin Chen's hand, feeling a mix of emotions, his words softened: 'Understood.'"

"Even the potential murderer who retracted his fangs is still quite obedient."

"Jin Chen silently affirmed in his heart, pushed open the door and went to face the old fox Chief."

"The Chief indeed didn't tell Jin Chen about Wu Lin's past, but the suddenly appearing Gui Die, even if imitating the crime, is still extremely heinous; he cannot conceal it."

"Gui Die last appeared ten years ago, and the case was also handled by Wu Lin's master, Old Mu, but after tracing it to the end……" The Chief now recalled and still couldn't figure it out: "Old Mu insisted on voluntarily withdrawing from the case, even quitting his criminal detective job at the police bureau, and continued investigating alone as an ordinary civilian."

"But in just a month or so, he was killed by Gui Die, the murder weapon even being the gun that had accompanied him half his life! However, the killer was also killed by Old Mu."

"Jin Chen's thought paused: \"Forcing him to choose his most 'liked' way of death? \""

"If it were merely a simple imitation of the crime, the current behind-the-scenes administrator shouldn't know such a confidential incident."

"Later, we also received word from above to shelve that case, but we also don't know why, even after confirming the killer's death, we still had to set it as an unsolved case."

"Bringing up the past again, all of the Chief's former doubts resurfaced."

"I also know it's wrong, but all the clues back then disappeared with Old Mu's death; his dying request was that I absolutely must not reveal it to anyone, especially his disciple whom he had raised since childhood… that is, Wu Lin."

"Keeping Wu Lin out of this case is for his own good; otherwise, Old Mu back then couldn't have taken such a risk to entrust this to me."

"No," Jin Chen refused quickly, "I just said, Wu Lin is my team member; I disagree."

"Separated by a door, Wu Lin faintly heard Jin Chen's voice from the corner by the window, resounding."

"I can keep him from acting on killing intent, and no one has the standing to stop him from investigating the truth for his master."

"The Chief glanced at him and said in a low voice: 'This matter also has an ironclad order from above; I'm afraid you won't be able to protect him in the end.'"

"I can." Jin Chen said firmly: "As long as the killer isn't you, I can."

"Chief: ……"

"This kid is definitely asking for a beating!"

"Get lost, get lost, get lost! If this case isn't solved, you'll get lost together with him!"

"Jin Chen knew the Chief was softening, ignored that threat, laughed, went up and gave him a cigarette: 'Chief, don't worry, I'll make sure it's taken care of.'"

"——"

"Since Jin Chen's 'second entry into the palace' came out of the Chief's office, Wu Lin kept staring at him with a strange gaze; even Jin Chen's self-admiration made him feel a bit creeped out."

"'Why are you helping me?' Wu Lin looked at him for a while and still asked, 'Just because of your fondness for the Illusory?'"

"\"Yeah, be moved, give me a laugh, bro. \" Jin Chen was searching for the nightmare's current whereabouts, threw in a teasing remark, earning Wu Lin's contemptuous look."

"\"Alright, no more bickering with you. \""

"Jin Chen led Yu Jue out, not forgetting to tell Wu Lin: 'Feel free to search the office computer; there's nothing to hide.'"

"His voice wasn't low; Duan Xiao Bai briefly lifted his head from a pile of case information, feeling that something was off."

"\"Ah……\""

"\"This is straight to fast-forwarding to the duty check! \""

"Wu Lin twitched the corner of his mouth, got up and went to Jin Chen's office, also thinking this criminal detective squad leader was very capable at online promotion, able to spin black into white."

"But he didn't realize that the usual aftereffects of his illness—such as weariness, nausea, and a hateful worldview—had vanished today because of Jin Chen's presence."

"\"Or perhaps he did realize it. \""

"Wu Lin sat in Jin Chen's office chair, silently adding to his schedule: find time to go to the hospital for medicine."

"——"

"\"Outside a certain psychological clinic. \""

"\"Bro, you've been waiting here a long time, huh? When does the doctor open the door? \""

"The man who heard someone strike up a conversation put out his cigarette, and those nearby, bored, chatted a few words: \"Yeah, Doctor Song's schedule isn't easy to wait for; he rarely treats others, buddy I got the slot thanks to luck. \""

"\"I just hope I can see my wife and kids again in my memories; living alone in this world is just too damn sad. \""

"\"The man rubbed his rough face: 'And you, bro, why are you looking for Doctor Song?'\""

"\"Ah… me too, I'm also here to look for some memories. \" Yu Jue made up an excuse on the spot, hurried back to Jin Chen's side: \"Jin Team! You were right after all—the clinic's Doctor Song Meng is exactly the nightmare. \""

"Yu Jue exclaimed, rubbing the back of his head: \"Really, doctors can't heal themselves—who would've thought a doctor who helps others recall memories would post such painful things on a suicide support forum? \""

"\"After waiting a few more minutes, the clinic's imposing main gate opened, and Jin Chen and Yu Jue entered without hindrance. \""

"\"Hello, \" Doctor Song Meng approached wearing a shirt with a special pattern, asking, \"Who among you has today's appointment? \""

"\"I am. \" The man shook off the smoke all over him, forced a smile, and walked in."

"\"And these two are? \""

"Jin Chen showed his ID, his calm eyes fixed on Doctor Song Meng."

"\"Hello, police. \""

"\"Doctor Song Meng: ……\""

"\"Trying to escape now is definitely impossible; the administrator didn't arrange a second self-igniting vehicle, and this place isn't a side road where you can flee anywhere. \""

"\"At the moment Doctor Song Meng tried to retreat, Yu Jue rushed over and handcuffed him. \""

"\"The man looked bewildered and was also ushered out by Jin Chen. \""

"\"You guys have no humanity. \" Actually caught, Song Meng instead stayed calm, giving Jin Chen a strange smile: \"That gentleman is waiting for me to treat him. \""

"\"Who knows if he won't become your next prey. \""

"\"Jin Team's gaze fell on him: 'Before you commit suicide, we have a few questions to ask.'\""

Not knowing what she had thought of, Song Meng's face instantly darkened, and a strong sense of unwillingness welled up in her heart.

The suicide plan hadn't even been carried out……There couldn't be worse news than this.

Even though they were in casual clothes, the action of two burly men blocking Song Meng in the middle and taking her away still drew attention; the security guard at the street pavilion came over, puzzled, asking what they were doing.

"Police." Yu Jue certainly didn't want to cause any more trouble.

"Ah… police?"

The security guard glanced at the silent Song Meng and said, "What are you doing arresting Doctor Song?"

He certainly wouldn't wait for an answer, and Jin Chen's glance was enough to make the guard shrink back; he could only chuckle twice and duck back into the street pavilion, saying, "Officers, keep busy!"
