No one knew if it was a coincidence or malicious competition in the industry. When the report of Zheng Yi’s discharge from the hospital was published, another smaller newspaper published a photo of the murderer’s mother as she was released from the women’s prison. The day that happened coincided with Zheng Yi’s discharge from the hospital.
Jiang Yao only received the newspapers from Wen Xuehui after her exams. Wen Xuehui had known about that when it happened, but she was worried that it would affect Jiang Yao’s mood if she knew about it, so she had hidden it from her.
After the exams were over, she retrieved the newspapers that she had hid for two days with indignation.
“Jiang Yao, is there something wrong with this newspaper? Why did it rush to publish the report the same day as the report in Nanjiang Morning Post? Won’t this cause trouble for Zheng Yi?” Wen Xuehui poked the photo of a woman in the newspaper angrily. “This woman should be executed with her son! Otherwise, she should be imprisoned for the rest of her life. She gave birth to such a son, yet she still didn’t feel any guilt. She even hurt Sister Zheng Yi. What right does this witch have to live in this world?”
The serial killer’s mother did not participate in any of the vicious murders that her son committed. Therefore, she was only imprisoned for a few years because she assaulted a police officer and maliciously harmed others.
“Jiang Yao, think about it. If Zheng Yi didn’t meet the Divine Doctor, she would still live a miserable life. However, this witch has been released from prison. Life is so unfair!” Wen Xuehui became angrier as she spoke. “What about those victims that her son killed? Those parents who lost their daughters, the pain will never disappear for the rest of their lives.”
Even though Zheng Yi had been in pain for a few years, it was still better than those parents who had lost their children.
“But she didn’t kill those people; her son did. And her son has been executed.” Jiang Yao also sighed helplessly. “Even though she hurt Zheng Yi, her injury didn’t endanger her life. Well, the law is fair. It’s just that sometimes, the law can’t do everything.”
After she read the newspaper, Jiang Yao went to pack her things. Wen Xuehui was still angry when she asked, “Aren’t you angry when you read such a report?”
“I’m angry. Why wouldn’t I be angry? Because we know Zheng Yi, so we are even angrier. But it’s useless to be angry.” Jiang Yao shrugged. “Fortunately, Zheng Yi is much better now. Furthermore, I have a feeling that Zheng Yi has the spirit to fight now.”
“She said that she wouldn’t return to the Police Crime Squad,” Wen Xuehui said. “They did look for her, and they were hoping that she could return to the unit. But she had refused their offer, and Uncle Zheng doesn’t want her to do such a dangerous job again.”
“I think she has an agreement with Chen Feibai!” Jiang Yao raised her eyebrows. “Otherwise, he wouldn’t say that he will look for her when he is better! They were always bickering with each other while they were at the hospital for their treatment. Sometimes, Chen Feibai would provoke Zheng Yi, and sometimes it was the other way around. The day before they were discharged, they quarrelled so much that they stopped talking to each other. But after that, they were talking again. I don’t know what they said to each other.”
