Chapter 597: Chapter 597: Searching for the Fiancé

What Jiangli said about Jian Lewei being with her must’ve referred not to her body, but to her... soul.

Did Jian Lewei run to Jiaoyang Temple for help?

That would explain it.

Song Taishan immediately said, "Abbot, is Jian Lewei really with you right now? Wasn’t her case solved already? Is there some hidden information?"

Before Jiangli could respond, Jian Lewei suddenly grabbed her hand, her eyes full of anxiety and unease.

Jiangli patted her hand reassuringly and said to Song Taishan across her, "Captain Song, I’ll keep this brief. Jian Lewei is indeed with me, but she has a fiancé who might seek revenge."

She briefly explained the situation between Jian Lewei and Dai Jiajun to Song Taishan.

"Now, Dai Jiajun is not at home, and we have no idea where he has gone. We suspect he might go after the homeless man, so we would like to ask Captain Song where the homeless man might be now. Is he at the police station?"

Song Taishan sighed upon hearing this.

He said gravely, "I really don’t know about that, I can’t manage that side. But if the Abbot wants to know, shall I make a call and ask?"

As soon as Jiangli heard this, she said, "Then it will be troublesome for you, Captain Song."

Song Taishan said it was no trouble and hung up first to call his colleagues in the North District to inquire about the situation.

Jiangli waited with Xia Xin and Jian Lewei in the same place for two minutes.

Song Taishan’s call came through soon after.

Jiangli immediately answered, "Captain Song?"

"Abbot, I’ve made some inquiries and actually heard some news." Knowing their urgency, Song Taishan got straight to the point, "The North District says that the evidence in this case is conclusive, the crime process is clear, and both testimony and physical evidence point in a definite direction, but the homeless man is mentally ill, lacking self-control, meaning the investigation can only go so far. So they plan to transfer the homeless man to a psychiatric hospital they collaborate with tonight, to be under supervision, waiting for a more detailed verdict from the court."

Jiangli frowned, "He’s being transferred tonight?"

"Yes, that homeless man is severely disturbed, causing constant disturbances at the police station, too energetic and agitated to control, so he must be sent to the psychiatric hospital," Song Taishan sighed, his voice filled with profound helplessness.

The police actually fear dealing with such cases.

The victim is dead, but the perpetrator is mentally ill.

Their crimes are often brutally vicious, yet they cannot be held accountable.

When the investigation results are released to the public, the police have to deal with questions from the people.

As police officers, they feel powerless in these kinds of cases.

They want to advocate for the victims, but there’s nothing they can do.

Upon hearing this, Jiangli fell silent for a moment.

She couldn’t help but look at Jian Lewei.

Jian Lewei had heard Captain Song’s voice on the phone as well. She stood there, stunned, then lowered her head, fiddling with the clothes on her body, her figure soon beginning to tremble slightly.

Jiangli’s expression grew colder, "Captain Song, do you have any specific information about when the criminal will be sent to the psychiatric hospital, which route will be taken, can you give me that?"

Song Taishan asked her to wait for a moment, seemingly checking some report.

A rustling noise came through, as if something was being moved.

After a while, Song Taishan said, "I’ve checked the internal report from the North District. It seems that at nine o’clock tonight, he will temporarily be transferred to the psychiatric hospital for supervision. He will be taken along Yilis Avenue."

Jiangli wasn’t too familiar with these roads, but having a specific route was better than aimlessly searching without a clue.
