After being murdered by my whole family, I was reborn

Chapter 2134 You forgave her? You're not going to investigate your husband's death?

Zhang Ran casually extended her wrist, waiting for Captain Lu to handcuff her.

Seeing her obedient cooperation, Officer Ma suddenly asked, "You can even open the cell door, how can these handcuffs hold you in place?"

Captain Lu: "..."

Zhang Ran smiled at Officer Ma, "Are you worried? Then add shackles."

Officer Ma remained silent. Zhang Ran was still a suspect; she hadn't been brought to court for sentencing or conviction. So she was just a suspect, not a criminal, and couldn't be shackled so easily.

If they put her in shackles, and she goes out and accuses them of abusing her, he'll be in trouble.

He couldn't make the decision himself, and subconsciously looked at Captain Lu again.

Captain Lu paused for a second: "No need." Shackles are not suitable for suspects. If we put them on her, we would have to apply to the chief. Besides, if they can't be locked up, adding shackles won't help.

Police officer Ma remains at his post, guarding the prison cells.

Lu Dui took Zhang Ran directly to the military doctor for a full-body examination.

An hour later, the military doctor told him that no foreign objects were found on Zhang Ran's body.

Undeterred, Captain Lu called over a policewoman and had Zhang Ran taken to take a bath.

Zhang Ran was taking a bath inside.

The policewoman stood guard nearby.

Captain Lu squatted outside, rummaging through Zhang Ran's dirty clothes, touching every inch of her clothes.

After working for half a day without any results, Captain Lu stood up, seething with anger.

There was nothing hidden on his body or in his clothes. Did he anticipate that they would come, so he hid in the cell?

After Zhang Ran finished showering, she came out wearing the clean clothes that Qi Hongyan had brought her, and was checked inside and out by the policewoman several times.

Seeing her refreshed appearance only fueled Lu's anger. "You dare to assault and cause trouble while in detention? I'll lock you up in a dark room for three...one night." Considering her mental illness, he figured one night would suffice. What if she had a relapse after three days and went completely insane? The case wouldn't even need a trial; they could just send her straight to a mental hospital.

Upon hearing that she was to be locked in a dark room, Zhang Ran remained calm, as if she wasn't the one about to be punished.

The dark room had no windows, and the door was locked from the outside.

If no one from the outside opens the door, the person locked inside will never be able to get out.

Because Shi Liu was beaten and injured, she received special treatment upon returning to her cell and was placed in solitary confinement.

"Zhang Ran was locked in a small dark room as punishment for assaulting someone," Captain Lu told Shi Liu the truth, indicating that he had already taken care of her.

Upon hearing that Zhang Ran had been locked in a dark room, Shi Liu, whose head was wrapped in gauze, didn't seem happy. Instead, she asked worriedly, "You've locked her in a dark room, won't she run out again?" Zhang Ran was locked up because of her, and she was worried that once the police left, Zhang Ran would run out and beat her up. The thought of this possibility made her wound, which had stopped hurting, start to ache again.

Captain Lu had a dark expression but dared not make any promises.

Shi Liu immediately misunderstood and cautiously probed, "I was wrong to curse her first, but I forgive her. Please let her go and don't lock her up."

Captain Lu laughed angrily: "You forgave her? You're not going to investigate your husband's death anymore?"

Shi Liu nodded frantically; on her way to see the military doctor, she finally understood.

She's definitely going to jail, but since she and Zhang Ran are both women, they'll most likely be imprisoned together.

Her husband is gone; she has to save her own life.

“There’s something I’ve been keeping from you. The night my husband disappeared, we were walking home together. He was walking ahead of me when he suddenly vanished. I saw will-o’-the-wisps and was chased by a ghost. Later, I fell and passed out.”
