Ning Shu tucked Cheng Fei in. She then released her spiritual consciousness and scanned the surroundings to see if there were any cameras.
As expected, there was one in the ward.
āHurry up.ā The police came in and pulled Ning Shu out, then closed the door.
āCheng Fei is still a criminal suspect, so you canāt casually visit him yet. Not to mention that he is unstable mentally.ā
Who knew when heād go off suddenly?
Ning Shu was pulled out of the room before she could do anything.
āThen, are you going to transfer him to the psychiatric department?ā Ning Shu asked.
āWe are already asking for further instructions. Cheng Feiās situation demands he be transferred to the psychiatric department, so the doctors there can examine him.ā
Ning Shu inwardly sighed. At this rate, theyād identify that he was mentally ill.
Cheng Fei really knew how to play this game, didnāt he?
Sure enough, he wanted to avoid punishment with the insanity plea.
Wanting to fossilize a person was abnormal enough. That combined with the fact that he showed such strong belief in fallacious reasoningā¦
Itād be really easy for him to get diagnosed with insanity.
Ning Shu turned around and left the hospital.
Professor Ai and Mother Ai were already waiting for her. Professor Ai asked her, āHow is Cheng Fei?ā
Ning Shu sat on the sofa and massaged her temple. āHe overdosed on antidepressants.ā
āIsnāt he a doctor? How could he not know how much medicine he should take?ā
Even Mother Ai felt that something was fishy here.
Ning Shu spread her hands. āWorse thing is, Cheng Fei does seem to be mentally ill. Heās going to be transferred to the psychiatric department.
āOnce heās diagnosed as mentally ill, he will be sent to a psychiatric hospital. Once that happens, we can just forget about the attempted murder charge.ā
Professor Ai frowned. āEven if heās insane, Cheng Fei was fully conscious at the time of the crime. He was able to control what he did. He still has to bear responsibility for his crime.ā
āThatāll depend on what the jury thinks.ā
In fact, even if Cheng Fei didnāt get diagnosed with insanity, the situation was still very unfavorable for them.
If he wasnāt diagnosed with it, Cheng Fei would only get five years in prison. If he was, heād be forcibly put into a psychiatric hospital by the government, but heād still be able to get out after he got better.
Heād have to bear no criminal responsibility whatsoever.
Ning Shu pounded her chest. She felt so much frustration she almost felt sick from holding it in.
Ning Shu said to Mother Ai, āMom, Iām hungry. Letās eat first.ā
She felt exhausted. Sheād been running around all day. Although she wasnāt physically tired, she was mentally spent.
She felt really powerless too.
Mother Ai was not in the mood to cook, so she just made three bowls of tasteless noodles.
While they were eating noodles, Mother Ai suddenly said, āIf Cheng Fei really gets diagnosed with psychopathy, doesnāt that mean that heās always had it, and just pretended to be normal in front of us before?ā
Ning Shu: ā¦
Professor Ai: ā¦
Even if Cheng Fei was not crazy, he was still a psychopath. No normal man would think of fossilizing his own wife.
āCheng Fei has always been planning this from the start,ā Professor Ai said. āThe only reason that Ai Yun is still alive is because he was still practicing his amber-making skill.
āNow that heās become more proficient at it, and Ai Yun just happened to want to get divorced, he probably sensed our suspicion and decided to carry out his plan.ā
Mother Aiās complexion changed. She squeezed her chopsticks tightly and said, āWhat should we do? Can we tell the police about this?ā
āThe main problem is evidence. Without evidence, everything is just speculation.ā Ning Shu spread her hands. āCheng Fei is too vigilant. I wasnāt able to get a hold of any strong evidence.ā
The case of Cheng Feiās adoptive familyās death happened more than ten years ago. Itād be very difficult to reopen the case.
Nothing had been discovered at the time, and the family of three were now skeletons in the ground.
No one would want to waste energy on such an old international case.
Ning Shu didnāt think that Cheng Fei would leave any useful evidence behind anyway.
