chasing the dark

Chapter 52 Relatives
Ms. Huang's eyes suddenly widened, and her voice trembled: "You...what are you talking about? Old Jin...Old Jin..."

Seeing Ms. Huang's tears dripping down after rinsing, Ye Zhanzhou turned around and took two tissues from the tissue box on the desk and handed them over: "Don't get excited, it's not sure yet."

Ms. Huang wiped her eyes a few times, pulled herself together and asked, "Man... no, where is that thing? Can I take a look?"

Although they are not registered, they have been together for several years, no different from a husband and wife.But let an old lady go to see the corpse that has become like that, in case something goes wrong again, is it okay?

"He fell into the water and died, and his appearance is definitely incomparable to his life. Otherwise, we wouldn't have given any enlightenment." Ye Zhanzhou said embarrassingly, "It's better not to see it."

Who would have thought that this Ms. Huang was quite persistent, raised her tearful eyes and said, "You must have taken pictures, right? I can just look at the pictures."

Jiang Yuxin said that if he could see the photos, he could visit the corpses casually.

She leaned over and pushed the water glass on the coffee table forward: "Auntie, drink some water first, calm down."

"I'm not thirsty." Ms. Huang shook her head and said, sobbing, "Although Lao Jin and I are not an official couple, we have been together for such a long time. Except for his weird temper, he is still very kind to me. If it weren't for... ...Oh...forget it, I won't mention the past. I just want to know if the one who didn't is him. "

"Auntie, why don't you first tell me if there are any characteristics on his body. For example, birthmarks and scars, you can compare them first." Jiang Yu persuaded, "You won't be frightened in vain, will you?"

Ms. Huang thought for a while and said, "He doesn't have a birthmark, but he does have a mole. It's right here at the hairline. You can't see it if your hair is long, but it's only visible when you cut it short."

As she spoke, she gestured on her head to see the location, and Jiang Yu's heart sank. Isn't that where the deceased was knocked on the head?
Seeing that she was silent, Ms. Huang asked, "Girl...does that person have a mole on his forehead?"

Suppressing the disappointment in his stomach, Jiang Yu said, "I didn't notice it before, I'll check it out later, and if I'm sure, I'll tell you."

"Go and see now, okay?" Ms. Huang asked tentatively, "I'll wait here."

This is still an urgent... waiting online.

Jiang Yu didn't know how to answer for a while, so he heard Ye Zhanzhou say: "There are regulations on the forensic doctor, and an appointment must be made in advance. It must be too late today, and the specific time must be arranged by others."

"Okay then." Ms. Huang urged, "You must give me a confirmation letter."

"Don't worry, I'll tell you." Ye Zhanzhou promised, and then asked, "I'll ask you, does Jin Xiyu have any relatives? For example, brothers and sisters."

"He has a brother."

Given the age of the deceased, it is unlikely that the parents were alive.It's okay to have a brother, and the identity can also be determined through DNA comparison.

But the second half of Ms. Huang's sentence poured a basin of cold water on people's hearts.

"He died a few years ago," she said.

Ye Zhanzhou took a breath and asked, "Does his brother have any children?"

Ms. Huang nodded: "Yes, one son and one daughter. The daughter married and went to another province, and the son is in Mingyang."

Ye Zhanzhou hurriedly asked: "Do you have his contact information?"

"No." Ms. Huang said, "He is in Jing'an Hospital."

"Doctor?" Jiang Yu asked casually.

"No, he has mania." Ms. Huang twitched her lips helplessly, "Their family has a genetic history, so Lao Jin never dared to have children."

Mental illness is mental illness, it is still possible to provide DNA samples.

After finding out the name of Lao Jin's nephew from Ms. Huang, Jiang Yu sent her out of the gate of the Municipal Public Security Bureau.

When he came back, Ye Zhanzhou was talking on the phone with someone.Not knowing what the other party said, he ended the line with the word "get out".

Jiang Yu symbolically knocked twice on the door of his office: "Deputy Captain Ye, are you going to Jing'an Hospital?"

"You want to go?" Ye Zhanzhou frowned slightly.

Jiang Yu nodded hurriedly.

Growing up so big, she has never been to a mental hospital.

Ye Zhanzhou put his mobile phone in his pocket and shook his head: "Okay, I'll take you for a stroll."

Jin Xiyu's nephew is named Jin Xiang. According to Ms. Huang, he must be in his early fifties.

When I was young, I was pretty normal, but my temper was not very good, and I dropped things when I was angry.

Starting in my 30s, it got worse.Because of his tendency to violence, he was forcibly sent to a mental hospital, where he lived for 20 years.

Jin Xiang's elder sister went to other provinces to work in the early years and settled down there.For this younger brother, apart from occasionally sending some money to the hospital, there is nothing else he can do.

Ms. Huang said that Jin Xiyu would visit Jin Xiang every few months, but refused to take her with her.

Therefore, she only knew that there was such a person as Jin Xiang, but she had never met him.

Jing'an Hospital is located in the southern suburbs of Mingyang City. After leaving the city and passing through farmland, the car drove onto Panshan Road.

"This location is too remote." Jiang Yu had to hold the handle to keep his balance while bumping on the bumpy road.

I don't know how long the asphalt road has not been repaired, and there are pits and bumps everywhere.

Ye Zhanzhou slowed down the speed of the car: "Jing'an is a welfare hospital, and there are homeless people besides self-funded ones."

"Aren't homeless people repatriated or sent to shelters?" Jiang Yu was puzzled.

"That's a normal person. Anyone with mental illness will be sent here." Ye Zhanzhou turned the steering wheel and turned a corner. "If you find your family members, you will be notified to pick them up. If you can't find them, you will have to live first."

"Have you been here before?" Jiang Yu asked.

Ye Zhanzhou nodded: "When I was an intern at the police station, I sent an old man over. The old man was dressed in green and directed traffic at the intersection every day. He also said that his old Red Army should use his spare energy after retirement."

"Old Red Army? How old is that?" Jiang Yu found it inconceivable.

"He said he was 65, and he looks about the same." Ye Zhanzhou said.

Jiang Yu chuckled: "It's been more than 65 years since the founding of the People's Republic of China. Did he participate in the War of Resistance in his previous life?"

"Why don't you say that you are mentally ill." Ye Zhanzhou also laughed, "The old man gave us patriotic education along the way, and sang popular songs one after another. Let alone, his voice is not good, and the tune is quite accurate. At that time, we all thought he was a leading cadre somewhere."

"Did you find out his identity later?" Jiang Yu asked curiously.

"I lived in Jing'an Hospital for more than a month before I found my family members." Ye Zhanzhou said, "This old man is just an old farmer, and he has never been a village cadre. There was nothing wrong with him when he was young. When he is old, he doesn't know what he did. , became more and more abnormal, and insisted that he had participated in the 200-mile Long March. When the family was unprepared, he ran out and walked more than [-] kilometers all the way to Mingyang."
