Chapter 29 Dismantling
"Nocturnal wandering doesn't happen in dreams, but in the 3rd-4th stage of deep sleep, usually 2-3 hours after entering sleep. Before you said Zhaodi light sleep..., so I think she If she sleeps so lightly, sleepwalking is unlikely. Moreover, the time of the few nocturnal movements you mentioned does not quite match the time she sleeps..."

What Yang Ningning said made Ji Si'an stunned on the spot. Now she couldn't figure out how many secrets Li Zhaodi, a little girl, was hiding.

"Of course, this is just my guess. Because I was all absorbed in the matter of awakening her memory before, I didn't notice this. Now that I calm down and think about it carefully, this is indeed a bit unreasonable." Yang Ningning blamed herself explain.

What if she pretended all this?Amnesia is fake, so is sleepwalking.So why would she do it?

Ji Si'an patted her head, if the sleepwalking is fake, then what is she doing on the balcony at night?

Ji Si'an looked at the noisy street outside the window, and Muran understood.The purpose of Zhaodi going to the balcony may be the same as hers....On that day, Ji Si'an confirmed the location of the criminal police team's protection personnel from the balcony.So she was able to seize the opportunity to open the door to Wang Yingdi.She knew that the protection personnel of the criminal police team had left, including the day of the accident, Yuan Mu did not go to pick her up, and she also knew that Yuan Mu was on duty that day...

If it wasn't for Muzi Li secretly living next door...the consequences would be disastrous.Ji Si'an swallowed in fear.After having this level of understanding, thinking about Zhaodi's behavior makes everything understandable.

Li Zhaodi is spying on me... She eavesdropped on my conversation with Yuan Mu, peeked at my notebook, and even watched me when I was sleeping, knowing that I was in a light sleep and that I would have nightmares...

This thought frightened Ji Si'an, she hugged her arms tightly, and broke out in a cold sweat in the midsummer weather.Until Yuan Mu came to pick her up and left the hospital, she still kept her arms around her shoulders.

"Xiao An, what's wrong with you? Are you sick?" Yuan Mu came to her side and reached out to touch her forehead, but it was cold.

"Yuan Mu, I..." Ji Si'an struggled to regain his voice before fully telling her his conjecture.

Yuan Mu was silent for a long time after hearing this. "Why is she doing this to you?"

Ji Si'an shook his head, "I don't know, so I feel even more scared."

"Xiao An, I'm a little busy today, so I can't pick you up and leave the hospital. I'll see you tomorrow." When Luo Li called, Yuan Mu and Ji Si'an were staring blankly.

"Oh, okay." Ji Si'an said sullenly.

"What's wrong with Xiao An, is there something wrong?" Luo Li noticed her depression.

"No...it's nothing. You are busy with your work, let's talk later." Ji Si'an said perfunctorily.

"Xiao An, stay away from that Li Zhaodi, don't listen to Yuan Mu fooling around. I don't think that Li Zhaodi is an ordinary child." Luo Li said loudly.

Afraid that Yuan Mu would hear it, Ji Si'an turned around in embarrassment and whispered, "Okay, I know."

"Don't be so perfunctory to me. I'm serious. Her biological father is avoiding her and unwilling to raise her. Knowing her son is like a father. Be careful." Luo Li said anxiously.

"What? Did her father run away again?" Ji Si'an asked.

Luo Li sighed: "How many times have I told you to pay attention to the news. Just read the report and you will know. Let's talk about the details tomorrow. Remember what I said and don't get close to that little girl again."

After hanging up Luo Li's phone, Ji Si'an turned to Yuan Mu and asked, "Is Li Tianlong's case closed? Didn't Zhaodi's father bring Zhaodi back?"

"Li Tianlong's case has changed again. The criminal police investigated the surveillance in the store and confirmed that the proprietress did not put medicine in the tomato sauce. The ingredients of cockroach medicine were not found in the bodies of other children..." Yuan Mu said.

"So the proprietress is innocent?" Ji Si'an asked.

Yuan Mu nodded, "At least the current evidence is like this."

"Then who gave him the medicine?" Ji Si'an said to himself.

"I don't know yet. The child's father is very surprised that he doesn't seem to care about this at all. It is said that the son he hoped for so hard is dead, and he should really hope to catch the real culprit. In the end, this guy disappeared again." Yuan Mu said helplessly.

Li Tianlong?The image of him dressed like a gentleman flashed in Ji Si'an's mind.He never went to that fast food restaurant to steal ketchup, so where did he get his ketchup?

The children's arguing suddenly came out of the window, and Ji Si'an turned to look at them bewilderedly.Yuan Mu didn't understand what made Ji Si'an so engrossed, so he followed suit.

"I understand." Ji Si'an smiled wryly.

"Understand what?" Yuan Mu asked.

"I understand why she wanted to kill me." Ji Si'an said.

"What?" Yuan Mu stared at Ji Si'an.

Ji Si'an repeated: "I know why Li Zhaodi wanted to kill me."

She held Yuan Mu's hand tightly: "Two months ago, that was the day I went to the police station to ask you to help investigate my mother's case. I saw Tianlong pestering Zhaodi at the subway station and wanted to go play with her in the subway station Zhao Di was very impatient at the time, she told her friends to leave first, and she wanted to send Tianlong home... At that time, what she was holding was tomato sauce..."

"You mean..." Yuan Mu looked at Ji Si'an and already guessed what she wanted to say.

"Later, I ran into Li Tianlong and his father on the road, and he asked Tianlong if his stomach still hurts..."

"I guess that day Zhaodi coaxed him home to get rid of Tianlong and put some cockroach medicine in the ketchup he ate... She probably thought that the medicine would just make his stomach hurt so he wouldn't pester her I didn't expect... Tianlong died like this." Ji Si'an said softly.

"She thought you were a witness, so... she wanted to kill you..." Yuan Mu said.

Ji Si'an nodded: "Zhaodi's parents should have guessed... that's why her father didn't care about Tianlong's case. He couldn't face the fact that his daughter killed his son and chose to escape. And mother hated Zhaodi even more because of this , she intensified the domestic violence... We will know the rest of it."

"Perhaps, the dilemma behind Zhaodi is real. Her mother really wanted to kill her. After all, because of her fault, the whole family was ruined, and her husband's departure made her see no hope for her future life... .”

Yuan Mu suddenly realized: "So she was willing to trust Wang Yingdi, and even breathed a sigh of relief after Wang Yingdi killed her mother. Maybe she wanted to keep it a secret."

Ji Si'an sighed deeply: "But you just entrusted her to my care. She was afraid that I would remember what happened that day, so she felt extremely insecure, constantly testing me, spying on me, eavesdropping on our conversation, and even losing sleep at night... …”

"She rejected Yang Ningning so much because she was worried that she would discover her secret... This child is too scheming to let her escape legal punishment like this." Yuan Mu said through gritted teeth.

Ji Si'an didn't see it that way. Although she was a victim, she could roughly understand Li Zhaodi's psychology.Li Tianlong, who was regarded as a treasure by the whole family, died because of her. She was afraid of bearing the thunderous wrath of her parents, so she naturally tried to hide it.After her mother died, she was even more frightened and wanted to cover up the truth, and finally made the same mistakes again and again.

"She's only 9 years old, even if you have evidence, you can't do anything to her." Ji Si'an was very calm.

Yuan Mu sat back in the chair dejectedly. She knew all of this, but she still felt uncomfortable. "Her behavior is simply beyond what a child can do, and the law has to consider the actual situation." Yuan Mu said palely.

"It is precisely because she is a child that she did such absurd things. If she is an adult, she would be able to consider the consequences... No matter how smart she is, her mind is still immature." Ji Si'an said.

"You are quite generous..." Yuan Mu muttered softly.
