Chapter 87: The vexing, strangling emotion

From an accident to a perpetrator to a sexual assault, the case had now taken a very dark turn. A visible layer of blaze ignited in Jia’s expression as sexual assault took this case into a very dangerous territory.

"Now the fun time is really over," she spoke through her clenched jaw. "She was hit, kicked, her phone was broken and now I get the report that Anhe was physically exploited in that maze too. What the hell is wrong with your group?"

Aang’s gaze darkened. "That’s ridiculous. She was a pain in the ass for sure but Jinping you...would really go this far?"

"No! No, no, no!" Jinping cried out. "I cannot believe that Anhe would go so far in accusing me. Se-Sexual assault? I-I never even thought of her that way!"

"That’s horrible...!" Daxia gasped. "P-poor Anhe."

Yibo sneered. "Is it so shocking? I mean I feel you, Jinping. She wanted to throw you out of the group after using you. I don’t blame you if you felt compelled to..."

"Yibo!" Jinping exclaimed.

Shilin asked, his brows furrowing with extreme strain. "Inspector Song, was Anhe really...?"

"Hear it from the doctor himself," she unmuted the ongoing call with Mingshen.

"I never thought a horror house maze would be a place to make a man horny. One of you really has some heavy and shitty taste."

"How is Anhe now?" Jia gently asked.

"Shocked. The fun amusement park trip turned into something very horrifying for her. The annoying set of parents are consoling her."

"Mingshen..." she let out a warning.

"Excuse me, I am the victim here who has to deal with an idiotic pair of parents."

"What exactly happened?"

"She complained of pain in her vagina. Upon examination by a gynecologist, she found that there was a tearing in the inner lining which was bleeding. No traces of semen were found and through her examination, she concluded that a sexual assault did occur but not through a penis."

"Then?"

"Upon studying the surrounding tissues and depth of the penetration, she surmises that the perpetrator assaulted her with his finger. There is visible swelling on her clitoris too."

Silence.

"I am coming there with the group."

—

"Which one of you...which one of you dared to...!" Mr. Geng’s stomping footsteps raged towards the guys as soon as they appeared within his sight.

Jia stepped in between and held her ground. "I understand your anguish, Mr. Geng. But please step back."

"Who the fuck are you!? I have business with these bastards!"

"Inspector Song Jia."

He then remembered her face from the video call.

"So good that you came here too. Now answer me! Who was it that took advantage of my daughter!?"

Jia kept her voice low and respectable. "We are trying to find that out-"

"Utterly useless! You are still trying!?" His red, seething eyes demanded an answer.

Jia understood that no matter how much she tried to placate him now, he wouldn’t. No parent could after learning about such a tragedy happening to their daughter.

"Can I please talk to her? It’s really important."

"Talk!? Just look at her state! It’s unbelievable that the people she treated as friends turned out to be monsters!" Mr. Geng angrily punched in his knuckles, staring at the guys. "To think you hurt the principal’s daughter. You all fucking study in MY college and to my daughter only, you...! I swear I will ruin your life once I get the name!"

Needless to say, the threat was met with goose-bumpy and frightened reactions by Aang, Yibo and Jinping.

After much convincing, Jia was finally let into the ward where she saw Anhe in her mother’s embrace, her gaze blank and vacant. The reality hadn’t sunk in as she still struggled to process it. Mrs. Geng was constantly patting her head, sniffling and wiping her tears and snuggling against her daughter.

Mingshen found his oasis as his gaze fell on Jia and before he could make any nonsensical comment, her deathly glare promptly forced him to hold back.

Jia stepped forward and cleared her throat. "Anhe?"

Anhe was non-responsive at first. But as she recognized her gang standing behind Jia, a shudder escaped her body. The shudder mixed with disgust and indignation made her grit her teeth. "Jinping...you...you did this to me...You fucking assaulted me!!"

Her screeching scream tore through the air, striking right through Jinping’s drumming heartbeats.

"He..." she pointed her trembling finger at him. "He did this to me. Jinping struck my head on the wall and then...and then..." she lost her voice soon after, collapsing back on the bed.

"Anhe...!" Mrs. Geng hugged her, throwing her burning gaze at him.

Mr. Geng went berserk as soon as he heard the name and grabbed his collar hard. But before he could land a punch on his face, Jia forcibly pulled his arm back. "Mr. Geng, please! I really understand your anger but violence is not the solution."

Anhe broke into tears and as her gaze fell on Shilin, she trembled hard. "Sh-Shilin..."

Her face turned white, caring about Shilin’s reaction the most. With a sensitive and somber countenance, Shilin gently nodded at her as if saying that he was here with her.

He doesn’t hate me. Thank God he doesn’t hate me that I was...

Anhe found some comfort in his gentle gaze but at the same time, seeing Daxia and Yong by his side agitated her further.

"B-Boss! I-I am here!"

Bojing, who was slightly lagging behind and trying to catch up, crashed into Shilin’s back, unable to control his speed.

Mingshen dryly commented. "Is there a race going on, Assistant Lu?"

Shilin’s tall figure hardly budged with the impact. He turned and simply smiled. "Are you alright, Mr. Lu?"

Bojing’s eyes felt too short to contain his million guilty tears of crashing into him. "S-Sorry! I am really very sorry! I-I am so careless..." He bowed a whole one-eighty degree.

"No problem."

There.

Anhe felt it once again. The irritating tick in her heart. The vexing commotion strangling her neck. Her fingers twitched with an extreme sense of discomfort, her eyes losing their focus.

Without realizing it, she grabbed the fruit knife from the table and swung it hard at Bojing’s direction.

Nobody could make sense of it until Bojing caught something flying towards him from the corner of his eye. He instinctively raised his arm to block it, but it never reached it as Shilin swiftly grabbed it mid-air.

"Bojing!"

Jia panicked and rushed towards him. "Are you okay? What just happened?"

Bojing tremblingly raised his head, bewildered himself. "T-That came flying a-at me suddenly..."

He paled, seeing blood trickling from Shilin’s palm, who had to endure a cut amidst the catch.

"Y-You are bleeding..."

"I am fine, Mr. Lu," Shilin smiled. "I am glad nobody got hurt."

"Y-You did!"

"Which is fine. At least not anybody else."

Jia quickly called for a nurse to tend to Shilin’s cut, but Bojing offered. "L-Let me do it, Sis. He got hurt because of me..."

The sheer randomness of Anhe’s actions sparked an equally shocking reaction from everybody else too.

"Anhe, w-what happened dear?" Mrs. Geng anxiously questioned, who couldn’t make heads or tails of this sudden attack.

Anhe was already back to her senses the moment she saw Shilin grabbing the knife and hurting himself in the process. That alone woke her up hard and fast.

"I...I didn’t mean to..."

She tried to reach out to Shilin, wanting to explain herself. "Sh-Shilin, please listen to me. I d-didn’t throw it at you..."

Suddenly, a condescending shadow loomed over her, and she raised her head, staring right into the devil’s eyes and feeling the chill reach upto her spine.

"Yeah, you didn’t mean to hurt that brat. You meant to throw that knife at my assistant. I also know why. So now listen up, dear. My sympathies for you as a doctor will only go as far. Nobody, not even my patients can push my boundaries like that so please be very aware of the consequences the next time you pull such a stunt against my staff. Am I very clear?"
