Three days later, Liao Xiaoqing had a seizure and was sent to the hospital by the police, and Liao’s lawyer took the opportunity to request medical parole again.

In order to be cautious, the police hired a psychiatric expert from overseas to do a psychiatric evaluation on Liao Xiaoqing. 

Through hypnotherapy, Xiao Xiaoqing  was able to recall bits and pieces of the incident, but because the information was fragmented and incomplete, in order to achieve a better medical outcome, the doctor suggested that Xiao Xiaoqing return to a familiar place to enhance her sense of security and stabilize her emotions before doing more therapy.

So, this time the application for medical parole was approved, Liao Xiaoyu took her sister home, and the police sent police officers over to monitor her 24 hours a day to prevent her from escaping.

The same day, Han Zecheng’s team began to keep Li Hai under surveillance based on available clues, and also summoned his wife, Yang Shufang, back to the police station to help with the investigation.

Yang Shufang was shocked to find out Li Hai’s extramarital affair, she did not know that her husband was involved in this murder case, but after digesting this information, she quickly calmed down and coolly asked, “What is the evidence for what you are claiming?”

Han Zecheng observed her carefully and said, “Ms. Yang, we wouldn’t have invited you here if we weren’t completely sure. Liao Xiaoqing has already confessed that your husband is her fiancé, and they have agreed to get married in two years. And every month, money is wired from your husband’s account to Liao Xiaoyu. We also have evidence that Wang Rui was blackmailing him.”

Yang Shufang’s mood got complicated, she clasped her hands, and didn’t say anything for a long time; eventually, with tears in her eyes, she stiffly said:

“You do not need to bluff me, if you have evidence that Li Hai instigated the murder, you would have already arrested him. All you have is just what you guessed; you have no proof to back it. That girl, what’s her name, Liao Xiaoqing? Is she not a mental patient? A crazy person’s words cannot be believed, she is a criminal, the evidence is solid, what else is there to say.”

“Ms. Yang ……” Han Zecheng interrupted her loudly: “I understand your feelings, but I hope you do not cover up for criminals, this is a murder case, if you know anything about the matter or have any clues, please tell us.”

“I don’t know anything.”

“Have Liao Xiaoqing or Wang Rui ever looked for you?”

“I have never met them, and I do not think my husband’s actions were unusual in any way.”

“May 17, the day of the crime, where was your husband?”

“He was home with me.”

“Are you sure?”

“Yes, I’ve been home with him.”

“But Mr. Lee said he was out and he couldn’t cite a time witness.”

“He has a bad memory; we actually stayed home to rest on Sunday.”
