"So can you apply for a search warrant to search You Xin's patient information?" Shen Lie sat in Ning Yuan's office, and Ning Yuan asked.

"It's hard," Shen Lie replied, he put his right leg on his left knee, "There is no evidence now, only the family of the deceased Wisa can prove that he went to the addiction rehabilitation center, I still need more evidence , even a piece of indirect evidence will do.”

Ning Yuan pinched the bridge of his nose, sighed, stared straight at the unopened computer for a while, and suddenly asked: "Shen Lie, you said that if it turns out that Visa is just suicide, we will continue to investigate further. ?"

Shen Lie was startled: "Why did you suddenly think of this?"

Ning Yuan let out a breath: "Thinking of the child who was tortured by the electric shock in that room... I'm just afraid that the case will run aground after half of the investigation."

"No." Shen Lie stood up and walked to him, pressed his shoulder, and squeezed it comfortingly, "We will investigate this case to the end."

Ning Yuan held his hand on his shoulder with his backhand, put it on his cheek and rubbed it lightly, feeling that hand gently touching his face.

"Mrs. Meade," Gloria knocked on the door of Jones Meade's house and flashed the police badge, "I am a police officer of the Homicide Squad. My condolences."

Jones, red-eyed and haggard, murmured a thank you and stepped aside to let Gloria and Jerry into the room.

Jerry entered the room and found that the room was very dark. It was noon now, but the curtains were still tightly covered, which made people feel depressed when they entered.

Jones sat on the sofa with messy hair. Gloria sat next to her and patted her hand comfortingly: "Where's your husband?"

Jones sniffled. "He's stationed in Iraq. I haven't told him yet..."

Gloria took her hand. "Sorry, but we really need you to answer some questions."

Jones nodded.

Jerry asked, "What do you know about Yosin Kirk's rehab center?"

Jones was taken aback, he didn't expect to ask this question, and he was a little dazed: "Why do you ask this? They have something to do with my son's death?"

Gloria reassured: "Just answer the questions, and we will explain the important ones to you."

Jones was calmed down by what she said, and said: "I was recommended by a friend. At that time, Visa was mixed with some dubious people. I skipped school every day to go online, and my grades fell from all A's to E's. I have been approached countless times, and the last time he was about to be expelled. I begged the principal for a long time before he was willing to give Visa another chance. I, I really didn’t know what to do. At this time, my friend recommended this to me. I went to an addiction treatment center, and I took Visa with me with the feeling of treating a dead horse as a living horse doctor."

Gloria nodded, and continued: "Then do you know what methods are used in the addiction rehabilitation center, that is, Yosin Kirk, to treat Internet addiction?"

"Not very clear," Jones hesitated, "but no matter what the method is, it really worked. After going there for a month, Visa no longer goes online, and doesn't talk back to me."

Gloria and Jerry looked at each other, and Jerry said carefully, "Mrs. Meade, we have reason to believe that You Xin's so-called cure for Internet addiction is electric shock."

"what?"

Jones' surprise didn't seem to be feigned, and Gloria asked, "You don't know? Visa never told you?"

"No, no, I mean," Jones said incoherently, "he told me, but I thought it was just a lie to stop going to rehab, Dr. Kirk said some kids would do that , making up some horrible lies just to get out of rehab—"

Jerry frowned. "And you choose to trust her instead of your own child?"

Jones opened his eyes wide: "I want to believe Visa's, I want to! But he doesn't have any wounds on his body, and he has lied to me so many times before, how can I believe it?"

Jerry didn't answer any more, and changed the subject: "Do you mind if I take a look at Visa's room?"

Jones shook his head, and took the initiative to get up and take them there: "I haven't touched anything in his room."

Jerry and Gloria went into Visa's room and rummaged around. Jerry found a medicine bottle in a drawer without the packaging on it.He shook the bottle, there was still the sound of pills hitting the wall of the cup, and he opened it to see that there was still a small half inside.

Holding the bottle, he asked Jones, "Ms. Meade, do you know what this is?"

Jones took it over and looked at it carefully: "This is the medicine that Dr. Kirk prescribed to Visa. He said that the reason why Visa has Internet addiction and rebellion is because of mania and some kind of mental illness. I don't understand it very well. This is what he prescribed to Visa."

Jerry frowned: "Do you dare to take this kind of medicine without outer packaging?"

Jones was at a loss: "Dr. Kirk said there is no problem, and it does have a curative effect, so..."

Jerry calmed down, and threw the medicine bottle into the evidence bag: "Do you mind if we take it away?"

After leaving Jones' house, Gloria saw that Jerry hadn't spoken and his expression was not very good. After getting into the car, Gloria asked, "What's wrong with you?"

Jerry was silent for a while, and said, "I'm just wondering if this kind of thing happened because my parents didn't fulfill their responsibilities."

Gloria was taken aback, and Jerry said again: "Why do you want to educate your own child to others?"

Gloria shrugged: "Don't ask me, I don't have any children, you go back and discuss it with Casey."

Jerry shook his head: "Let's drive."

When they arrived at the police station, Jerry and Gloria went to James' office first and knocked on the door. James was dangling on the table with his bipods bored.

Jerry went in and patted his shoulder: "Come on."

James put his feet down: "What's the matter? Another body?"

Jerry rolled his eyes: "You can't think of something better," he said, handing him the evidence bag, which contained a medicine bottle, "Can you test the medicine in it?"

“我什么不能？”詹姆斯一如既往的欠揍，戴上手套拿出药瓶，开始去检验台检验。

Gloria and Jerry were bored waiting in his office, looking around, Jerry was still thinking about what happened just now.

After a while, James came over with a medicine bottle, his face very serious: "Where did you get this medicine?"

Seeing him rarely being serious, Gloria said, "The drug was prescribed to him by the addiction rehabilitation center at the deceased's house. It was said to treat mania or something."

"Fart," James snorted coldly, "the ingredient of this medicine is—"

"Stop talking, I don't want to hear it," Gloria cut him off flatly, "I don't understand anyway, so you can just tell the conclusion."

James shook the medicine bottle in his hand: "This so-called medicine that can cure mania is useless at all, and there are many powerful psychotropic drugs in it, which can make people unconscious to a certain extent and be easier to be controlled by others." .”

Gloria and Jerry looked at each other: "Now you should be able to apply for a search warrant."
