Diplomat's Wife

Chapter 281 About That Year!

Faced with Jin Han's forceful questioning, the old policeman named Johnson still chose to stick to the bottom line of being a federal policeman. He did not tell Jin Han the true identity of the girl.

Facing Jin Han who was already on the verge of anger, Johnson straightened his dignity, and as a devout Christian, pressed his right hand on his chest, looking into Jin Han's eyes burning with anger, he was extremely sincere and fearless, He said in an almost begging tone: "Please respect a girl's hard-won chance of rebirth."

More than ten years have passed, because the girl involved in the case was underage, and all the files have been properly anonymized. Not many people know the real identity of the girl, and Johnson is one of them.

After so many years, Elena has become famous internationally and has a brand new identity. Naturally, they can't bear to break her peaceful life. This is the tacit understanding of those who knew the truth back then. It is a kind of protection. The best possible protection for the deeply hurt girl.

Leaving the police station, the car drove away quietly.

Jin Han sat in the back seat, contemplating the closing ceremony, with complex and intertwined emotions in his heart.

In my mind, I was still stuck in the scene just now. I heard that the girl had been "reborn", which meant that she should be doing well now. Thinking of this, the guilt that had been entrenched in my heart for more than ten years finally subsided a little.

Outside the car window, the sky, which was clear just now, suddenly turned cloudy. Accompanied by a few thunderous lightning bolts, heavy rain poured down, patting on the car body.

It was almost a conditioned reflex, he only felt a sudden tightness in his chest, his hands subconsciously held his knees, clenched tightly, the cold sweat in his palms wetted the expensive trouser material, and his forehead was instantly covered with bead-sized beads of sweat.

Through the rearview mirror, Gu Yue saw Jin Han's strong support, his brows furrowed a few times, full of worry, his hand holding the steering wheel tightened indifferently, but he didn't say anything.

In the past two years, Jin Han's illness has been much better than before, and the dose of medicine has gradually decreased. Even if he encounters such cloudy, rainy and thunderous weather again, if it is not an emergency, he will mostly lock himself up and endure it.

After all, those drugs have a strong sedative effect, and if things go on like this, the damage to the body is really not small, but he has been relying on this drug for more than ten years.

Since he married Mu Ning'an, he has gradually begun to control the frequency of his medication. After all, it is three-point poisonous. Long-term use of this kind of psychotropic drug is almost the same as drug dependence and harm to the body. After all, he does not want to compromise After all, there is a woman by his side who is waiting for him to take charge of the rest of his life.

Sha Baoyang once half-jokingly said to him that Mu Ning'an was his antidote, but it was not the case. He gradually felt that she had a daughter, which had become his belief in living a good life.

Guyue tried to distract him and broke the silence, "Lin Shuyu is still alive, do you need to check her identity?"

This girl is a knot in Jin Han's heart, and he knows it better than anyone else.

Jin Han closed his eyes tightly and shook his head. The old policeman was right, she had been reborn, maybe he shouldn't disturb her current life.

Gu Yue saw that Jin Han was still uncomfortable, so he kept talking. Although Jin Han didn't reply, he knew that the boss must be listening, "When I went to the hospital, I saw Lin Shuyu's death certificate with my own eyes. Then the police station also deleted her household registration information, I should have investigated further, this matter, blame me, I am willing to be punished."

Is it because of his negligence that Jin Han has been under such psychological pressure for so long, Gu Yue always feels uneasy.

But Jin Han would not blame him. The police have always taken special measures to protect the victims of special cases. Since they want these people to "live", they must also arrange for them to "die".

The rain outside the car window was getting heavier and heavier, just like the night when there were thunder and lightning.

Jin Han leaned back on the seat, his thoughts flooding.

That year, it was a rainy night with thunder and lightning.

At the age of 19, he was admitted to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. On that day, he happened to take a late-night flight from New York to Boston. Gu Yue came to pick him up. Gu Yue was a few years older than him and was already a graduate student at MIT.

That was the first time Jin Han saw Guyue, and he only knew that he was the son of his grandfather's subordinates.

Along the way, Gu Yue introduced the city to him from time to time, passing through the lively neighborhoods, the neon lights of the city's night scene flashed.

The block in front seemed to suddenly become lively, and the speed of traffic was congested.

"This is the bar street. This time is the busiest time, and it may be a bit congested." Gu Yue explained.

Jin Han didn't like this kind of atmosphere, so he said in a low voice, "Go around this road."

Guyue frowned. The only way to get to the destination is through a bridge across the river. If you take a detour, you will have to drive more than 20 kilometers. But before Jin Han came, he had heard about it from his father. Due to the temper of the young master of the Jin family, he didn't dare to offend and didn't explain, so he turned right and entered the alley.

This is the back alley of the bar street, the back door of the bar is open, and from time to time, you will see a few drunkards out in the air, either smoking or leaning against the wall to get drunk.

Driving forward, it seemed to be in ruins, and there were no street lights, so I could only use the headlights to bump on the uneven dirt road.

With a "bang", the car shook, as if it had been crushed by something.

Guyue stopped the car, "Wait a minute, young master, the road conditions here are not good, maybe I bumped into something, I'll go down and have a look."

"Let's go." Jin Han only said one word, but it was undeniable.

Guyue responded and didn't get out of the car. Just as he was about to release the brakes, the window of the co-pilot was slammed. The sound insulation in the car was very good, but the loud noise was really shocking. It took so much effort.

"Bang bang bang" followed.

The people in the car looked out of the window at the same time, and saw a girl in ragged clothes standing outside the car in the heavy rain. The girl was fifteen or sixteen years old, wearing a school uniform, her slender body was swaying, and her head was straight. Her waist-length hair was already wet from the rain, and it was covering her face at this moment. It was a bit creepy for a girl with this appearance to appear on such a remote rainy night.

The girl slapped the car window heavily with both hands, and screamed frantically: "Help! Help!"

Sitting in the back seat, Jin Han looked indifferently at the girl outside the window and asked, "What place is this?"

For the girl who appeared here at this time, his first impression was not good. After all, he has lived abroad for so many years and has seen many of them. It is not uncommon for girls to strike up a conversation when they see a luxury car. It's not like he hasn't encountered such an experience before.

"There are many cheap hotels in the street ahead, and many young people from the bar street will open a room here. Seeing her like this, she must be high, and come here to invite customers!" Gu Yue said disdainfully.

"Let's go." Jin Han said indifferently. He had heard about the flood of drugs in this generation.

Silent all night.

Early the next morning, Jin Han opened his eyes, pressed the switch, and opened the electric curtains. It rained heavily all night, but it didn't stop.

He habitually touched the remote control by the bedside and turned on the TV.

The female anchor of the news channel broadcast the headlines of the day at a very fast speed. The harsh headlines shocked the man who was still lying on the bed, "In the back alley of the bar street, an underage girl was molested by four men , the girl was forced to take a huge amount of drugs, and now she has been sent to the emergency ward, her life and death are uncertain..."

On the accompanying picture of the news is a picture of the scene of the incident taken by the police. The girl in ragged clothes is lying on the ruins built of wooden boards, dying. Although the girl's face has been mosaiced, Jin Han still recognizes it. That long hair, and that familiar school uniform, isn't that the girl who stopped the road and slapped his car desperately calling for help the night before?

Isn't she a drug addict?Could it be that she was only desperately calling for help when she was being chased and forced into danger?

Perhaps, he should stop, even if he should open the car window and ask, perhaps such a tragedy will not happen.

It was his indifference that harmed an innocent girl, and that sense of guilt clung to his heart like a nightmare, enough to suffocate.

The heavy rain poured down, accompanied by muffled thunder, Jin Han held his chest tightly.

Since then, it seems that as long as the weather is cloudy, rainy and thunderous, he can't help but think back to that scene, the girl's ragged clothes, desperately slapping on his car window and screaming for help, and the car chasing him eventually lost speed and fell into the mud Embarrassment in the rain.

Because of the minors involved, the police kept the case extremely secret. He made many inquiries and found out that the girl's name was Lin Shuyu, and also found out the hospital where the girl was admitted, but it was a month later, and the last thing he knew , It's just the news that the girl died in Gu Yue's mouth.

……

In the back seat, Jin Han's breathing calmed down a lot.

Guyue asked in a timely manner, "Mr. Jin, as for the fourth person..."

After all, this fourth suspect has been watched by Interpol, which is quite different from the previous three.

"Old rules." Jin Han pinched the base of his nose and said tiredly.

If it was the old rules, they would be castrated first and then killed, just like the fate of the first three people.

After being silent for a long time, Guyue finally couldn't help it, and persuaded him, "Mr. Jin, you have done your best for what happened back then. Now that the girl is still alive, this is already the best arrangement from God. The knot in your heart , should also be untied."

For so many years, he has followed Jin Han. Regarding what happened back then, he was the only person who knew the truth besides Sha Baoyang. He even blamed himself for a while. He mistook the girl for a drug addict girl first. , if I could ask one more question at that time, maybe there would be no tragedy in the future.

But tragedy has happened.

Perhaps compared to Jin Han, he was a few years older than Jin Han, and after all, he walked out quickly, but for the 19-year-old Jin Han, that kind of misery was indeed a kind of torture.

As Sha Baoyang said, post-traumatic sequelae vary from person to person, and some people may be with them for life, and Jin Han may be one of them.

Fortunately, Mu Ning'an's appearance was a surprise after all.

For this lady, Gu Yue has respect and gratitude in his heart.

After all, he always felt that he was partly responsible for Jin Han's illness, and after Mu Ning'an appeared, no matter what, Jin Han's illness improved. This is an indisputable fact, and it can be regarded as making up for his part guilt.

hotel.

Elena took a sleeping pill and finally fell asleep peacefully.

Mu Ning'an sat on the bedside, the woman's soft fingers stroked Elena's red and swollen eyes, it was a kind of sourness that pierced her heart.

After a night of nightmares, the real culprit has not been arrested for 16 years. Every day, they seem to live in a state of uneasy panic.

The rain poured down outside the window.

It has been 16 years, but the events of that night will still break into her nightmares from time to time in the past.

The two people that year rented an apartment together, loved the same sisters, and went to the same high school.

She was under 16 that year, and Elena was only one day away from her birthday.

After dinner, the two went to the cake shop to buy a birthday cake, preparing to celebrate Elena's birthday at twelve o'clock on time.

When returning to the apartment, they met a black renter, who threatened them with all their money and left them in a remote back alley.

On a pouring rainy night, in the deep back alley, the two girls were terrified, but they couldn't find a way out, so they could only rush towards the light like bumping around.

A few drunk tall young men suddenly ran out from nowhere and surrounded the two girls. From the eyes and movements of the men, the two girls could read the danger.

They struggled desperately to break free and ran forward, and the people behind were hot on their heels.

When they arrived at a crossroad, they were finally tired from running. When they saw a trash can by the side of the road, Elena hid Mu Ning'an in it, closed the lid, and hid herself in a cardboard box beside her. I practiced dancing since I was a child, locked in that cardboard box, and there was almost no difficulty.

Unexpectedly, in a hurry, Elena's skirt was exposed outside, and she was spotted by those chasing people without any surprise.

Mu Ning'an hid in the trash can, listening to Elena's screams, she wanted to rush out to save her, but heard Elena yelling at her in Chinese: "Don't come out! Go to the police! Call the police!"

Elena's voice was getting farther and farther away. When Mu Ning'an came out, she saw Elena being supported by several people in the distance, each carrying a limb into a ruin tens of meters away.

Mu Ning'an ran forward like crazy until she hit a stopped car. She desperately called for help, but the people in the car obviously ignored her.

When she ran out of the alley and waited for the police to return to the scene of the incident, it was already an hour later.

The ruins where Eileen disappeared once disappeared, and it was obvious that it was not the last scene of the crime.

Mu Ning'an sat in the police car, wrapped in a thick blanket, and refused to go home.

It wasn't until dawn the next day that the police found the dying Elena in a factory ruin 500 meters away from where Elena last disappeared.

Mu Ning'an was terrified, guilt, gratitude, hatred, anger, grief and anger in her heart intertwined and chaotic.

If Elena hadn't given her the chance to survive, she might have been the victim of that tragedy, but in the end, she was helpless, even if she called the police, it would be useless in the end.

After that incident, Elena began to lose her mind, and after that night, Elena even became seriously addicted to drugs. For a while, her life was in a state of confusion.

She evaded drug rehabilitation, and her self-degenerate state is heartbreaking, and she has no innocence and romance of the dancing girl in the past.

Mu Ning'an knew that Elena was not only avoiding drug rehab, but also her life. She couldn't accept her dirty self, let alone the fact that she could no longer be a mother because of the nightmare of that night.

After removing her uterus, she has completely lost her qualifications as a woman. That kind of despair is by no means a pain that ordinary people can bear.

Finally, after half a year, Elena finally couldn't bear the collapse of her heart, picked up the blade, and pressed it against her slender wrist.

Fortunately, Mu Ning'an discovered it in time.

That night, the two sisters hugged each other and cried, and Mu Ning'an vowed to accompany her to detoxify from drugs.

Eileen did not believe that her life would be possible to start over again. Seeing this, Mu Ning'an almost sucked up a bag of white powder without hesitation. She trembling, pressed Eileen's wrist, resolutely One line, "If I can quit, so can you."

Maybe it was Mu Ning'an's act of betting with his life that finally infected the already desperate Elena, and the two of them were admitted to the drug rehabilitation center together for several months.

When the two came out of the drug rehabilitation center, it was already a year after the incident.

That day also happened to be Elena's birthday.

The two sisters celebrated their birthdays, and Mu Ning'an said that she would give her a special birthday present.

She took Elena to have breast revision surgery, but Mu Ning'an wrote her name on the surgery sheet, and she wanted to give Elena a new life.

The operation was quick and smooth. Outside the operating room, Mu Ning'an held Elena's hand and smiled sweetly, "From now on, you are Elena."

It was also from then on that Mu Ning'an made up her mind to be the woman who would protect Elena.

It was also from that time that she no longer believed in men, and she would never forget the black car that abandoned her on a rainy night, and the cold and indifferent attitude of the man in the car.
