Chapter 197 Change of Mindset
Seven-year-old Tong Yue was terrified when she witnessed Zhu Hui cutting himself.

Fortunately, Tong Yue's father was there, and under his gentle questioning, Tong Yue reluctantly recounted what had happened.

She even took out the greeting card from her arms and gave it to Tong's father.

But when Tong Yue finished speaking, both her father and the police officer next to her seemed to have thought of something and frowned in unison.

"What's wrong?" Tong Yue asked, blinking her innocent eyes.

"It's nothing." Mr. Tong stroked his daughter's hair, thinking about his guess. He thought he must have been overthinking it. "It turns out Yueyue remembered that today is Daddy's birthday. I almost forgot myself. Yueyue even wanted to give Daddy a card. Thank you, Yueyue."

Tong Yue smiled as she was praised, leaning against her father's chest. Although her body was still trembling because of Zhu Hui's matter, her mood had improved somewhat.

Tong Yue seemed to be extremely exhausted, and soon fell into a deep sleep in her father's arms.

Seeing that his daughter had fallen asleep, Mr. Tong immediately went to find the policeman he had just spoken to.

Tong Sheng, also known as Tong's father, hopes the police can thoroughly investigate Zhu Hui's invitation for his daughter to visit his home, as well as the glass of water he handed to her. He feels that things are definitely not simple.

Hopefully, it's not what he thinks.

"Don't worry, Mr. Tong, the Zhu family's residence has been sealed off. We will investigate what you said." This policeman was the same one who had just questioned Tong Yue, so after hearing Tong Yue's account, he had a strong premonition.

Tong Sheng took his sleeping daughter home. As soon as he returned to the village, he heard the whole village discussing Zhu Hui cutting himself. Countless people were talking about it.

Tong Sheng's eyes were deep and dark.

However, he didn't think too much about it. That night, Tong Yue developed a high fever, and he went to see the village doctor overnight.

However, Tong Yue's fever persisted until the next day, fluctuating repeatedly. She would occasionally wake up and then fall into a deep sleep again.

The police have already arrived at his home.

I told him the results of the investigation.

"We found a paper packet containing medicinal powder in Zhu Hui's house, and the water Tong Yue drank also tested positive for the drug..."

"We also found out that Zhu Hui previously had a child with a WeChat account..."

When the police finished explaining the results of their investigation, Tong Sheng's face darkened completely.

His fists were clenched tightly.

If only Zhu Hui were dead, he would have had the urge to kill him with a knife.

At this point, Tong Sheng understood everything.

This Zhu Hui actually has such a fetish.

He even lured Yueyue to his house and gave her a glass of water laced with that drug. His intentions are self-evident.

If Zhu Hui hadn't gone insane and committed suicide later, wouldn't Yueyue have...

The thought of that possibility filled Tong Sheng with lingering fear.

Yueyue went to Zhu Hui's house with him to give him a birthday card.

If, if Yueyue gets into trouble because of this, Tong Sheng will never forgive himself.

And now...

Tong Sheng felt that Zhu Hui deserved to die; he was a demon and deserved to die!

Soon after, the police announced the cause of Zhu Hui's death: suicide, he cut himself.

The villagers were talking about it.

Some people think, has Zhu Hui gone mad? Otherwise, who would be stupid enough to cut themselves? Does he not want to live anymore?
Some people think that Zhu Hui may have done something bad, and now Heaven is coming to punish him.

In any case, Zhu Hui's case was ultimately classified as a suicide. As for Tong Yue, her fever didn't subside until the following evening.

However, after her fever subsided, Tong Yue lost her memories of that time at Zhu Hui's house.

The doctor said that it might be because witnessing someone else commit suicide was too gruesome for the child, so the child couldn't bear it and sealed the memory away.

Tong Sheng felt that losing that memory was a good thing.

Later, Tong Sheng felt that Zhujia Village was not suitable for them to live in, so he moved away two months later. As for where he went, no one knows.

Of course, this is a story.
-
On Song Zhining's side, that very evening, she heard the news that Zhu Hui had committed suicide and that Tong Yue was unharmed.

Song Zhi Ning breathed a sigh of relief, "Luckily, she was rescued in time."

[Ding! Your wish-gathering task has been completed, and the merit has been bestowed.]

Meanwhile, in a future timeline, the petition about Zhu Hui also disappeared.

Seeing that the task was completed, Song Zhining smiled.

“However, we cannot let go of the doctor who originally helped Zhu Hui fabricate a mental illness.” Song Zhi Ning had someone investigate that doctor.

When Song Zhi Ning went to bed that night, she was worried that she might have nightmares like Chen Li had last time, but to her surprise, she had no nightmares and slept soundly until dawn.

Song Zhining made the right choice both times she used the Book of Life and Death and the Judge's Pen.

Both Chen Li and Zhu Hui, who were judged to be evil, were identified as such.

However, Song Zhining's state of mind was different on both occasions.

When Song Zhining first used the Book of Life and Death and the Judge's Pen, she was nervous and apprehensive. After all, once she put pen to paper, whether right or wrong, she was erasing a life.

Yesterday, when she wrote down Zhu Hui's name, even though she knew all too well that Zhu Hui was a demon, she was certain that her judgment was correct.

However, Song Zhining discovered that her state of mind was different on the two occasions.

This time, the pressure of erasing a life was less, and she didn't hesitate as much as before when she put pen to paper.

I didn't have any nightmares that night.

This frightened Song Zhining.

She seems to be gradually becoming somewhat detached, taking a more rational approach to writing and judging people.

Indifference to human life, even though one knows it is the work of a demon.

Song Zhining didn't know if this was a good thing or not, but she told herself that no matter what, she couldn't use the Book of Life and Death and the Judge's Pen recklessly, and she had to control herself and not forget her original intentions.

Song Zhining didn't want to end up forgetting her true self and becoming a demon herself while wielding the pen to punish the devil.

After reflecting on her actions, Song Zhi Ning's mood improved somewhat.

At that moment, she also saw the news about the doctor who had been investigated.

That doctor was related to Zhu Hui and even shared the same fetishes. As a psychologist, he used his position to commit many evil deeds.

Song Zhining thought that perhaps in the original timeline, this person was threatened by Zhu Hui and was afraid of being exposed by Zhu Hui, so he gave Zhu Hui a fake mental illness diagnosis.

Regardless of whether this person was threatened by Zhu Hui, this person is equally despicable.

Song Zhining restrained herself from summoning the Book of Life and Death and the Judge's Pen again to write this person's name.

But this hypocrite cannot be let go.

So Song Zhining immediately filed an anonymous report, saying that such a person should go to jail.

After finishing all this, Song Zhining checked the time and realized it was almost time to attend Zhao Zhizhi's wedding.
