Chapter 26 Crazy
A row of thick sycamore trees with their heads cut off stood beside the sidewalk.White steps extend from the entrance of the alley, with neatly arranged bungalows on both sides.

In the two-meter space between the steps and the corner of the bungalow, Yao Xin held the unconscious Zhou Shunfang's neck and pressed a fruit knife against the carotid artery.

When Zhuge Yang ran to the steps and stood shoulder to shoulder with Yin Zihe, Yao Xin looked up at him, the fruit knife getting a little closer.

"Captain Yang, you're here. If we hadn't come to pick up the car today, we really wouldn't have discovered Yao Xin's purpose. She followed me here and suddenly pushed him down. We didn't even have time to step forward. She listened to me I called you, but I didn’t take the next step, as if I was just waiting for you." Yin Zihe was sweating on his forehead, his little tiger teeth were chattering outside, and he was breathing heavily.

Feng Yi also came over and said: "Your aunt gave us the car keys. At that time, Zihe said that there was a person who looked like Yao Xin at the gate of the community. Later when we drove out, we found Yao Xin following behind."

Zhuge Yang glanced at the spacious path under the steps.He knew that there was a vegetable market ahead, where the vegetables and meat were very fresh.Auntie comes almost every morning.

His eyes fell on Yao Xin's face, and Zhuge Yang walked down the stairs slowly. "Yao Xin, why are you doing this? Even if you forget your dream, you shouldn't go against it."

His brows were knitted together, and the emotion in his eyes was more than disappointment.

At a distance of five or six meters between the two, Yao Xin asked him to stop.

Zhuge Yang stopped and went to see his unconscious aunt.Aunt Zhou Shunfang had large blood stains on her ginger collar, and the back of her head must have been injured.

Yao Xin moved the fruit knife in his hand. "Zhuge Yang, the knife I'm holding in my hand is the one that killed Fu Mingyang. After I get rid of this evil woman who beat the old man for you, you can take me back with the evidence and bring me to justice. It’s law.”

Before Zhuge Yang could speak, Yao Xin continued: "Don't tell me anything like putting down the butcher knife. It's not fair for evil people like them to live a good life."

"I remember you told me that your grandma is also very good to you. As a police officer, you are not able to resolve the injustice in your family. Are you very distressed? Let me help you."

Yao Xin had a smile on his lips and an upturned face, like a child waiting to be praised.

The fruit knife in her hand pressed down, and she was about to wipe it off.

Zhuge Yang suddenly fell down on the steps, pinching his temples with his fingers.Yin Zihe and Xiao Jiang didn't know what happened to Zhuge Yang, so they all rushed over to help him.

"Zhuge, what's wrong with you? Zhuge?" Xiao Jiang shouted the loudest.

The fruit knife paused, and Yao Xin cast his eyes inquiringly, trying to see Zhuge Yang's situation through the gap surrounded by the three of them.

When Zhuge Yang was surrounded and supported, he only said three words lightly: Cover me.

The holster was opened, and the shiny black pistol appeared in Zhuge Yang's hand.

The muzzle of the gun stretched out from the inside of Xiao Jiang's arm and aimed at Yao Xin's arm holding the knife.

"Zhuge, don't scare me. What's wrong with you? Wake up, Zhuge." Xiao Jiang acted calmly. Anyway, her back was turned outward, so no one could see her expression.

The velocity of the bullet is invisible to the naked eye.

boom.
The fruit knife splashed with blood and clattered onto the white stone slab.

Yao Xin was brought down by the inertia of the shot in his arm, and he fell backwards and hit the hard wall.Before she could react to what was going on, her whole body had been pulled and turned over, unable to move.

The pain in the arm seemed to have returned only at this time.

Yao Xin pressed his face against the cold and rough stone slab, listening to Zhuge Yang's methodical commanding voice.

"Zihe, you and Feng Yi take the injured to the hospital first." "Xiao Jiang, help me stop the bleeding in her arm."

Yao Xin noticed that his uninjured arm was handcuffed with a cold handcuff.She closed her eyes, first cried, then laughed.

The pierced arm was tightly tied with a white sling, and Yao Xin was dragged up the steps.She looked back at the corner where the blood was on the ground. Xiaojiang was picking up the fruit knife through the fabric of his sleeve.

"Zhuge Yang, I will die after the trial. I will die if I commit suicide after killing Zhou Shunfang. Why did you save me and Zhou Shunfang? Don't you hate her?"

One of Zhuge Yang's wrists was handcuffed to Yao Xin's.He said nothing, only held her arm tightly.In fact, he didn't even want to give her a look.

In the pocket of Yao Xin's jeans, his cell phone vibrated.

The two had already walked to the police car parked on the side of the road. Passers-by looked at them curiously, and some took out their mobile phones to record and take pictures.

Zhuge Yang took out Yao Xin's mobile phone from her trouser pocket and saw that the caller ID on it read: Head Teacher.He lifted Yao Xin with his eyelids and said sarcastically: "You once said that you didn't have good parents, but what about Cao Ying?"

After pressing the answer button, Zhuge Yang clicked on the loudspeaker.

On the phone, the female teacher said anxiously: "Hey, Cao Ying's mother. Come to school quickly. Cao Ying said she had a stomachache and was rolling on the floor in pain. How about I call an ambulance first?" Ouch, Ouch, Cao, Cao Ying, she fainted."

Yao Xin suddenly rushed towards Zhuge Yang's waist and grabbed the pistol in the holster.

Zhuge Yang immediately grabbed the person and pressed him against the car door. Yao Xin's cell phone also fell to the road and the screen went black.

Xiao Jiang came over late and didn't hear what was on the phone.But she saw Yao Xin grabbing the gun.Xiao Jiang held the bloody fruit knife with one hand, and held down Yao Xin's uninjured arm that was twisted behind him with the other hand.She yelled angrily: "What else do you want to do? Kill the police."

"She didn't want to kill me, she wanted to commit suicide." Zhuge Yang took out the handcuff key, opened the one on his wrist, and cuffed Yao Xin's hands behind his back. "If you want to die, you have to drag your child with you. You are really crazy. Tell me what happened to Cao Ying."

Yao Xin pressed his forehead against the car door, closed his eyes and cried without saying a word.

Zhuge Yang put the person into the car and asked Xiao Jiang to watch her from the back seat. He drove faster and passed another red light.

On the way, Zhuge Yang asked Xiao Jiang to call Xiao Liang to see if Xiao Liang could go to school first to check on Cao Ying's condition.Xiao Liang's call was not answered.

Half an hour had passed by the time Zhuge Yang placed the unconscious Yao Xin and Xiao Jiang at the entrance of Beidaihe Hospital before going to pick up Cao Ying from school.

Cao Ying was sent directly to the emergency room.

The little girl was lying on a long stretcher and was pushed into the cold iron door. Zhuge Yang's heart clenched.He squatted in the hallway and put his hands in his hair.

Xiao Jiang handcuffed Yao Xin, who was unconscious on an intravenous drip, to the hospital bed and came to Zhuge Yang to see the situation.She also squatted down, put her hands on Zhuge Yang's knees, and asked softly: "How is Cao Ying?"

"The doctor said that we need to do gastric lavage and rescue him. He already has symptoms of kidney failure." Zhuge Yang grabbed his hair hard again.

"Yao Xin did it?"

"I should have given the child medicine when I went out in the morning." Zhuge Yang raised his head and his eyes fell on the closed white iron door.

In the morning, the little girl he saw bouncing around had such a bright and childlike smile.The little girl could never have imagined that her mother would kill her at that time.
