Chapter 90 Public Opinion
Chapter 90 Public Opinion
It was already 7:30 in the evening when Ren Wudao sent Bai Yanliang home.
"Thank you, Professor Ren." Bai Yanliang got out of the car and nodded in thanks.
Ren Wudao looked around the old courtyard that didn't fit in with the surrounding buildings and said with a smile, "Won't you treat me to a cup of tea?"
Bai Yanliang thought about it and nodded, "Then... please."
He could see that the young medical professor seemed very interested in him, but of course, also a little wary.
Ren Wudao thought the same as Bai Yanliang. He really wanted to find out what kind of person this mysterious online friend of his sister was.
Ren Wudao asked himself that there were not many people who could not see clearly, but Bai Yanliang was one of them.
"Speaking of which, this is Gao Fei's home, and I'm just his tenant." Bai Yanliang opened the door and introduced Ren Wudao: "By the way, Gao Fei is the young forensic doctor today."
Ren Wudao nodded and followed Bai Yanliang into the yard.
However... as soon as he stepped into the courtyard, he suddenly shuddered, and his eyes subconsciously looked towards the huge locust tree in the corner of the courtyard.
"and many more!"
Ren Wudao shouted.
Bai Yanliang turned around and looked at him, and Ren Wudao's face looked a little ugly.
"Mr. Bai, there seems to be someone on that tree."
Bai Yanliang's heart was moved, but he shook his head and said, "Professor Ren, you are tired today."
Ren Wudao paused when he heard this and looked at Bai Yanliang. He could not see any emotion from the other's expression.
Ren Wudao nodded and retracted his gaze: "Okay... maybe I am really tired."
He no longer looked at the locust tree, but Ren Wudao was sure that there was definitely a pair of eyes in the gaps between the leaves!
Ren Wudao took several deep breaths and adjusted his emotions. He was a man who believed in science, but Bai Yanliang's attitude and his own eyes told him that there seemed to be something strange about the tree.
The urban area and the old courtyard should have been demolished...
How has it been preserved to this day?
While thinking, Ren Wudao followed Bai Yanliang until a voice woke him up.
"Meow--"
As soon as Bai Yanliang opened his door, Edgar Allan Poe jumped over.
Bai Yanliang caught it quickly. Although the little guy was bandaged, he still climbed onto his shoulders nimbly, and his little head kept rubbing against Bai Yanliang's neck.
"Good boy, are you hungry?" Bai Yanliang patted the little black cat's head.
However, Ren Wudao's expression suddenly became frightened.
"Sorry, I have to go now!"
As he spoke, he covered his mouth and nose and fled out of Bai Yanliang's room.
"What's wrong?" Bai Yanliang chased after him with Poe in his arms, looking puzzled.
"Don't come over here!" Ren Wudao's eyes widened, his forehead covered with sweat. This was the first time Bai Yanliang saw him so out of control.
"I'm allergic to cat hair, don't let it get near me!"
Bai Yanliang was stunned and stood there holding Edgar Allan Poe. The little black cat in his arms looked up at him, its pitch-black eyes as crystal as two gems.
"Mr. Bai, see you tomorrow..."
Ren Wudao seemed a little unwilling, but when he saw the little black cat he was full of resistance and could only leave for the time being.
Bai Yanliang held the cat's paw and waved goodbye to Ren Wudao: "Goodbye."
The gray car sped away. Bai Yanliang looked down at Edgar Allan Poe and said, "Look, you scared me." "Meow——"
……
The next day.
Gao Fei didn't come back until the early morning.
But Bai Yanliang received Yang Wanlong's message early in the morning.
"At 9:30 in the morning, Jiangbei Branch of Yecheng Police Department, female corpse case, case analysis meeting."
This means to notify him to attend the meeting.
After Bai Yanliang finished washing up, he rubbed the little black cat's head and said, "Don't run around, don't climb trees, wait for me to come home."
"Meow--"
The man and the cat communicated harmoniously, although they didn't understand each other.
Bai Yanliang was no stranger to the Jiangbei Branch of Yecheng Police Bureau. The police officer who led the team to arrest him was from the branch, and so was Yang Wanlong.
By the time he stopped a car and rushed to the police station, there were already quite a few private vehicles parked there.
These days, if something happens, it is very difficult to block the news. After all, there are so many self-media and the Internet is well developed. Although most people don’t know what happened in the Yunhua Road Park yesterday, the police’s actions were clearly seen by passers-by. Then, the news that a female corpse was found on a park bench came from nowhere and appeared on the Internet, spreading rapidly.
Nighttime is the time when public opinion ferments the fastest. After all, people get off work and get off school. By early this morning, one-tenth of the people in the entire city knew about this matter.
This is a terrifying number, and the police are under a lot of pressure. If they don't control public opinion and solve the case as soon as possible, no one knows what terrible consequences will result.
"Check it for me! Where did the news come from? Damn it..." Yang Wanlong cursed. Although the public has the right to know, the content circulating on the Internet is very different from the real situation. Under the manipulation of idle people and people with ulterior motives, Yecheng Police Station has become a place where filth and dirt are hidden. How can Yang Wanlong, who is in charge of this case, not be angry?
"Captain Yang, there is another visitor..."
"No, no, no, no! Why are you interviewing? Aren't those media more powerful than us?"
"He said... he must say his name is Bai Yanliang..." The young police officer glanced at the angry Yang Wanlong, and still told Bai Yanliang's instructions.
Yang Wanlong was stunned and turned his head suddenly: "Where is the person? Why don't you bring him in!"
When Bai Yanliang was brought into the Jiangbei branch, the police station was already extremely busy. Although Yang Wanlong had calmed down a lot when facing Bai Yanliang, his face was still grim.
"Let's go, this time... we must catch that bastard!"
Yang Wanlong said this with gritted teeth, and then, as if he remembered something, he handed Bai Yanliang an ID card with Bai Yanliang's photo and name on it, and four bold words: Specially Appointed Consultant.
"Keep this. You and Professor Ren are the only two people in the entire Ye City who have it. Don't lose it."
Bai Yanliang looked at the ID in his hand with some surprise. It was exactly the same as the ID Ren Wudao showed yesterday.
"Uncle Yang, this...isn't it inappropriate?"
Yang Wanlong turned around and glared at him, looking around and said, "Who dares to say it's inappropriate? Over the years in the mental hospital, you have provided me with so many ideas and solved so many cases. I know how many you have even if you haven't counted them yourself! Keep them!"
Bai Yanliang glanced at the certificate in his hand and suddenly smiled.
A juvenile delinquent... would actually be recognized by the police one day. How ironic...
When Bai Yanliang arrived at the conference room, Ren Wudao was already sitting at the table looking through a document. Besides him, there was Gao Fei, who was still energetic after not sleeping all night, Lin Wan with bloodshot eyes, and several elderly police officers.
After a while, a middle-aged man with a square face walked into the conference room, glanced at everyone, and said:
"2.11 Female Corpse Case, case analysis meeting begins now."
I saw the rewards and support from book friends on other platforms, thank you all. I am familiar with the IDs of many book friends, and I vote for recommendations every day. I am very grateful.
