"A very terrifying thing?"

Lin Jie softly repeated, and immediately had a bad association in his mind. He asked the middle-aged man, "You didn't kill someone, did you?"

The middle-aged man paused for a moment and slowly said, "My wife left us because of an industrial accident, and since then, Nannan has become my everything."

"To give her the best education, I scrimped and saved to send her to Bowei International School."

At this point, the middle-aged man's face showed an expression of regret and anger.

An Kemeng quietly explained to Lin Jie, "Brother Jie, Bowei International School is a boarding aristocratic private school, quite prestigious. Because I didn't want to board, I didn't go to that school."

"That Friday, when Nannan returned home, she was very silent and didn't eat..."

Crystal tears overflowed from the middle-aged man's eyes.

He spoke in a sorrowful tone, "I thought she was tired, so I told her to go back to her room to rest."

"Never expected... never expected..."

The middle-aged man, unable to contain himself, said, "In just half an hour, my Nannan jumped off the building..."

He wiped the tears from his face, "While she was being rescued at the hospital, the principal, her head teacher, and class monitor from Bowei International School came."

"They told me that Nannan had liked a boy at school, and the boy had rejected her."

"Nannan likely couldn't figure it out because of emotional issues, and that's why she jumped."

The middle-aged man calmed down a bit, and said in a slightly steady voice, "After the rescue, Nannan's life was saved, but she closed herself off."

"I sought treatment for Nannan everywhere, sold our house and car, but her condition did not improve at all. I was in complete despair."

"In November, I received an anonymous letter."

"The letter said that Nannan didn't jump because of emotional issues, but because she was bullied."

A cold light flashed across the middle-aged man's face, and he continued, "Last night, I tricked those people I found separately."

"Expert Lin, you can't even imagine how outrageous it is now for middle school students to bully their classmates."

"And the cause was just that both Nannan and that girl had a crush on the same boy, and the boy liked Nannan more. So the girl gathered three of Nannan's dorm mates to bully her together."

"After interrogating them, I finally understood what my Nannan had gone through!"

The middle-aged man's voice was somewhat unbearable as he said, "Humiliation and verbal abuse were the least of it. They took nude photos of Nannan, and even used a form of torture they learned from TV, using wet paper to cover Nannan's nose and mouth..."

"They forced Nannan... forced Nannan to drink their urine..."

"And even, and even smeared essential balm... smeared it on Nannan's private parts..."

At this point, the middle-aged man couldn't continue.

Lin Jie, An Kexin, and the others also listened.

Lin Jie couldn't imagine that middle school students could be so malicious, so cruel to their own classmates.

Lin Jie suppressed the anger in his heart and asked, "You didn't... you didn't..."

The middle-aged man lightly nodded to Lin Jie and said, "Knowing that my beloved Nannan experienced such things, how could I, as a father, endure it!"

"Expert Lin, I have no regrets at all now."

"Such scum living in the world will only harm more people."

"I was thinking of leaving this world with Nannan to reunite with her mother, but seeing you, Expert Lin, I really can't bear it..."

"Expert Lin..."

The middle-aged man fell to his knees with a thud, pleading, "Expert Lin, please, please, Nannan is innocent, she's very pitiful..."

"Quickly, get up, get up!"

Lin Jie and Qin Gang supported the middle-aged man from both sides, "I promise you, I promise you."

"I will not only heal Nannan's injuries but also take good care of her, I guarantee it."

After saying this, Lin Jie looked behind the middle-aged man.

At the dining table behind him, Kong Mingqing and that young woman had already swapped seats with the original diners.

Lin Jie had a realization and said, "You must be investigating the case of those missing middle school students, right?"

Kong Mingqing stood up, with a heavy face, and said, "We received a report from the families last night, saying the children were missing and we also received a kidnapping ransom message."

"After preliminary investigation, my intuition told me that this Yao Jishun was very suspicious, so I and my colleagues went undercover to follow him."

Kong Mingqing took a deep breath and asked, "Yao Jishun, I heard everything you just said."

"I deeply sympathize with your daughter's ordeal."

"But..."

He didn't continue, directly asking, "Those four missing girls, did you really..."

Kong Mingqing continued to persuade, "Yao Jishun, now that Expert Lin has promised your request, you can say your wish has been fulfilled, why don't you just tell the truth."

Knowing Kong Mingqing was an undercover police officer, Yao Jishun didn't show a bit of panic, instead, he seemed somewhat relieved and said, "Sending them ransom messages and threatening them not to call the police, I just wanted one more day."

"Officer, I can confess to you, all four of them are dead!"

Seeing Kong Mingqing's face change drastically, Yao Jishun reached out and showed two bottles of pesticide, saying, "I have already made up my mind to drink the pesticide with Nannan."

"Tell me, as a father, would I let them go?"

Before his words fell, a young woman standing by swiftly snatched the two bottles of pesticide from Yao Jishun's hand.

Yao Jishun, unconcerned, said, "Don't worry, even though I know I'll eventually be shot, I won't seek death now. I'll live one more day for Nannan's recovery."

"I hope to see the day when Nannan recovers."

Yao Jishun looked at Kong Mingqing and said, "One last request, let me take Nannan to the University Affiliated Hospital. Then I'll confess everything clearly."

"Otherwise, it'll take you some time to find those bodies."

Kong Mingqing nodded and said, "I'll consult with my superiors..."

A few minutes later, Kong Mingqing returned with a phone and said, "Your request has been approved. We'll take you and your daughter to the hospital..."

After saying this, he took out handcuffs and cuffed Yao Jishun's hands.

Lin Jie quickly settled the bill and followed Kong Mingqing's car to the University Affiliated Hospital.

"News and the internet often report bullying incidents among students. I never thought it would be this extreme."

Lin Jie held the teary-eyed An Kexin in his arms and softly said, "Teenagers have the impulses of adults but lack the self-control, so some juvenile cases are shockingly malicious."

An Kemeng, squeezed to one side, said with empathy, "This Nannan, so pitiful."

"Brother Jie, I'm so glad I didn't attend that school, or it could have been me facing this."

Lin Jie glared at her and said, "Kemeng, everyone's feeling down right now. Don't play on our emotions with hypothetical scenarios."

An Kemeng pouted in dismay and stopped talking.

Zhang Xiaoxiao turned around in the front seat, looked at Lin Jie, and said, "Ajie, Nannan's experience is truly sympathetic. I will cover her treatment and hospitalization expenses."

"No need, Sister Xiaoxiao!"

An Kexin intervened, saying, "The costs will be covered by the Anlin Charity Fund. Nannan's case fully meets the fund's assistance criteria."

Lin Jie pondered and said, "The funding issue is manageable."

"I'm more worried about Nannan's future life. Does she have any other relatives?"

"Although Yao Jishun entrusted Nannan to me, it was under special circumstances. It probably doesn't hold any legal authority, right?"

An Kexin wiped her eyes and said, "Let the lawyer handle this."

"Although Yao Jishun committed a serious crime, he is still Nannan's father, and a father's legal rights should remain intact."

Zhang Xiaoxiao added, "Ajie, I'll take care of Nannan, so you don't need to worry about her being unattended."

"Brother, I'll treat Nannan like a sister."

"I'll also treat Nannan like a sister. I've always wanted a sister."

Lin Miao and An Kexin also expressed their stance.

"Let's wait and see how things develop!"

Lin Jie gently said, "Since I promised Yao Jishun, if he doesn't change his mind, I'll arrange for Nannan's future life."

"Brother Jie, Brother Jie..."

An Kemeng suddenly called out, "If someone bullies sister or me in the future, will you take revenge for us like Nannan's father did?"

Lin Jie glared at her again and said, "I told you not to stir emotions with hypothetical situations."

"I just want to know!" An Kemeng murmured in dismay.

Lin Miao confidently said, "Mengmeng, you don't need to ask that question."

"I know if anything happened to me, brother would seek revenge at all costs, for sure..."

Over an hour later, the car drove into the University Affiliated Hospital.

As Lin Jie and the others got out, they saw two or three police cars already stopped here, with several officers vaguely surrounding Yao Jishun and his daughter.

Kong Mingqing said, "Yao Jishun, you've reached the hospital. That's it; the rest is up to the hospital."

Lin Jie walked over to Yao Jishun and said, "Don't worry, since I promise you, I won't break my word."

Yao Jishun nodded vigorously at Lin Jie, gratefully saying, "Thank you, Expert Lin, I trust you!"

He walked to the wheelchair, squatted down, held his daughter's hand, and smiled softly, "Nannan, Expert Lin has promised to treat you. He's very skilled and will definitely make you stand and walk again."

"Nannan, Dad has avenged you. The four bad people who bullied you, Dad killed them all, all killed."

"Nannan, Daddy's sorry, I shouldn't have sent you to that school."

"Nannan, as your father, I can't take care of you anymore. You have to take good care of yourself from now on."

"Nannan..."

At this point, Yao Jishun rested his head on his daughter's leg, choking up.

At first, he tried desperately to hold back, his shoulders shaking slightly, but gradually he started to sob.

The sobbing grew louder and louder until it became a heart-rending wail...

Seeing this scene, Lin Jie felt his nose tingling, his vision blurring.

"Brother, brother, look, look..."

Urged and pulled by Lin Miao, Lin Jie quickly wiped his eyes and saw two tears flowing from Yao Henan's eyes, her lips starting to tremble...
