Rebirth 2014: I, the King of Criminal Investigation

Chapter 672 No one would swallow this insult.

Beatings can cause not only physical harm but also psychological trauma to the victims.

Moreover, this kind of psychological trauma is the most difficult to heal and often accompanies the victim for life.

In its later stages, it leads to anxiety and depression, which can eventually cause victims to develop suicidal thoughts or even commit suicide.

According to Yu Dazhang, Zhang Qian's current state indicates a sense of world-weariness.

"I go by my own?"

Ye Zhiyu sounded somewhat reluctant on the other end of the phone:
"It's so late at night, couldn't you send a car to pick me up?"

He was out of town, and it was indeed very late, so his request wasn't unreasonable.

"Alright," Yu Dazhang agreed.
"Wait at the hotel entrance, I'll have someone come pick you up now."

Of course, we should make the best use of the people who are readily available.

If Zhang Qian refuses to talk about it, Ye Zhiyu will come in handy.

He then spoke with Captain Xu and sent an officer to the hotel to pick up Ye Zhiyu, while Yu Dazhang returned to the interrogation room.

"Awaited."

When Yu Dazhang returned this time, his tone was much gentler, no longer as harsh as before:
“You’re right, there are many templates for life, and I haven’t experienced what you’ve gone through.”

"However, this cannot be used as a reason for you to break the law and commit crimes, and you have no right to impose your own suffering on others."

By saying this, he was essentially telling Zhang Qian: We know about your situation.

Zhang Qian seemed to have expected this, but she still looked surprised:

"You're incredibly efficient. You've investigated everything about me in such a short time. It seems you're not your average detectives."

Are there different ranks for criminal police officers...? Yu Dazhang didn't respond to her question, but instead asked:
Why did you choose this line of work?

Interrogation should be conducted step by step. First, you need to understand the situation before you can follow the clues to investigate further.

Asking how to find a replacement without understanding the whole story makes it easy for the suspect to set a trap.

Have the police ever fallen into a trap set by criminals?

There are plenty.

This has a slightly negative connotation, so I can't give an example. Just try to understand.

"That's a strange question."

Zhang Qian looked up at him:
"Does one have to do this for some reason?"

"Can't I have a personal hobby? Money doesn't matter, I just like doing this job. I feel uncomfortable if I don't traffic people."

Is this even human language...? Yu Dazhang could sense that she had a strong rebellious streak, as if this topic had triggered a stress response in her.

But if we don't ask this, what else can we ask?
The person sitting across from you is a human trafficker; no matter how much you talk, you can't avoid the topic of human trafficking.

wrong.

Yu Dazhang suddenly realized that his focus seemed to be a bit off.

Even if Zhang Qian, the human trafficker, has suffered psychological trauma, she should not have developed a negative attitude towards the topic of human trafficking.

She works in this industry herself.

Even if one is sensitive to this topic, the reaction should be to avoid it or to be afraid.

But she didn't; instead, she confidently questioned and argued back.

Is it...

Was she also trafficked?

The moment the idea appeared in my mind, it became incredibly clear.

Previously, when Yu Dazhang saw Zhang Qian's medical records, he had always had a question in his mind.

She was abused to such an extent by her husband, why didn't she run away?

Judging from Zhang Qian's speech and manner of doing things, she should be an educated person, and with a high level of education.

She married that husband when she was 24, and that same year marked the beginning of her nightmare.

But that age is also the most rebellious age, and no matter how you look at it, she is not a submissive person.

This is too abnormal. Looking at Zhang Qian in front of him now, he finally understood where the problem lay.

It wasn't that she didn't want to run, but that she couldn't.

Did you find that person later?

Yu Dazhang suddenly asked a question that left everyone baffled.

When Captain Xu heard this question in the observation room, he turned to look at the officers beside him and found that their eyes were even clearer than his own.

Thankfully, it wasn't just me who couldn't understand... Captain Xu breathed a sigh of relief.

He found that the fat man's thinking was too disjointed.

The previous question was "Why do you want to do this job?", but the next question jumped directly to "finding people".

Team Leader Xu is now starting to doubt whether Yu Dazhang is just asking random questions.

Sure enough, Zhang Qian in the interrogation room didn't understand either.

She looked at the fat man opposite her with a blank expression and asked in return:
"Who are you looking for?"

"The person who abducted you," Yu Dazhang replied earnestly.
"If it weren't for him, you wouldn't have gone through all that happened later. Now that your so-called husband is dead, your only enemy is the person who kidnapped you."

"You were in dire straits before, but you lived on with strength, just waiting for the day of revenge."

He took a deep breath, paused briefly, and then continued:

"When you have money and power, you become numb to everything. The only thing that can arouse your interest is revenge."

Is this just wishful thinking?

No, this is the only logical explanation Yu Dazhang can think of.

After being tormented for three whole years, no one would swallow this insult.

If the culprit is not found, Zhang Qian will never have peace in her life, and her post-traumatic stress disorder will never heal.

This is why she chose to engage in human trafficking after acquiring a large fortune.

Yu Dazhang couldn't deduce anything deeper, since he hadn't experienced it firsthand.

"Who told you this?"

Zhang Qian's expression finally changed, shifting from calm to astonishment, mixed with a hint of fear.

Then, as if remembering something, her expression became even more flustered.

“I haven’t told anyone this, not a single person!”

Her voice carried a questioning tone:

"How on earth did you know that?"

Is it hard to guess...? Yu Dazhang asked, staring at her with a serious expression:
"Haven't you realized you have post-traumatic stress disorder? To put it another way, are you afraid of dying?"

"I..." Zhang Qian was stunned by the question.

Clearly, she already knew the answer in her heart, but she was too ashamed to say it aloud.

If she says she's "not afraid of death," it's tantamount to admitting she has a mental illness.

There's a saying: No one is unafraid of death.

Actually, this statement is not entirely accurate.

People suffering from depression are not only unafraid of death, but also believe that death is a relief.

And Zhang Qian now is clearly such a person.

"Now, let's go back to the question we just discussed."

Yu Dazhang asked in a deep voice:
Have you found that person?

This time, Zhang Qian raised her head, her eyes filled with hatred, and replied:

"found it."

After she finished speaking, she suddenly laughed again, and Yu Dazhang even saw ferocity and madness on her face.

Zhang Qian was laughing when her face suddenly darkened.
Are you asking if he's still alive?
