C10 Inquisition(1)

December 26th.

Sitting on the cement floor and looking at the five-meter tall wall above her head, Lin Xiaoyan could not help but think of "sitting in the well and looking at the sky. "

Lin Xiaoyan was not unfamiliar with this detention center. In the past, she often came here to interview prisoners. Never in her dreams would she have thought that one day, she would become a prisoner.

Prison was not necessarily a bad thing. After losing freedom, she became a rich man of time. After saying goodbye to her phone and leaving her WeChat Moments, she did not need to get up early and rush her drafts. She did not need to worry about being called up by the director in the middle of the night to run to the scene. She finally had a lot of time to be alone with her.

"It's not good for a girl to appear in public. " On the eve of college graduation, when Lin Xiaoyan mentioned that she wanted to apply for the interview at the newspaper, her mother Chen Hui Jun clearly expressed her opposition. She hoped that her daughter could become a civil servant or a teacher in the future and be a company employee. In short, the most important thing was stability. In her mother's eyes, stability overwhelmed everything.

What Lin Xiaoyan feared the most was stability. Every day, she would go to work on time. When she saw the same person, she would say the same thing and do the same thing. She would do the same thing in the same pattern, repeating the same thing over and over again. What was the difference between this life and an alarm clock? One could see the appearance of a retired person at a glance. Just thinking about it was terrifying.

She went to persuade her father again. In her life experience, her father was a living Bodhisattva who would grant all requests. As expected, Lin Jian'guo agreed.

Lin Jian'guo discussed with his wife, Chen Huijun, "Since the child likes it, let her broaden her horizons. It's not a bad thing for young people to go out and explore. Even if they suffer a little, it's not a bad thing. When she touches the wall, she will naturally turn back. " Although Chen Huijun was a hundred times unwilling, she did not insist. The big matters in the family had always been decided by Lin Jian'guo.

Lin Xiaoyan's wish was fulfilled and she became a reporter in the Dongfeng City Newspaper.

That year, a food program on the Central TV was popular all over the world. It was popular with all kinds of foodies. The newspaper took the opportunity to open up the gourmet section and sent Lin Xiaoyan, who was still a newcomer, to take charge. Lin Xiaoyan was a foodie to begin with. Coupled with her elegant writing style, she was like a fish in water now. She made a gourmet section flourish and made the leaders and colleagues look at her in a new light.

If it wasn't for the girl he met two years ago. . . Lin Xiaoyan was still a gourmet journalist. She might even write a gourmet masterpiece.

A year ago, during summer, the newspaper obtained a clue. A strange teenage girl's pregnancy happened in a remote county village. Department Director Wang felt that there was something to dig up about this matter. Coincidentally, the male reporter who had gone to the other end of the line had taken a leave of absence to perform hemorrhoid surgery. Department Director Wang was considering who to replace when Lin Xiaoyan barged in.

Lin Xiaoyan originally wanted to go to the 16th floor, but she accidentally knocked on the wrong door on the elevator at the 15th floor.

"Sorry, I went the wrong way. "

Just as she wanted to leave, she was stopped by Chief Wang. "That's right, you came at the right time. "

"Oh. " Lin Xiaoyan did not even have time to react before she received a new mission.

That girl was called Yanzi. She was thirteen years old and lived with her father, who was in his fifties. Her mother ran away with a fortune-teller five years ago. When Yanzi attended the physical education class, her teacher found out that she had been pregnant for several months, so she dropped out of school.

She locked herself up at home all day long, allowing her family to beat and scold her. She refused to tell them who the father of the child was. In that isolated small mountain village, this matter became a big news. Rumors spread everywhere, and the villagers spontaneously became detectives. Some people began to suspect that her father made her pregnant.

When Lin Xiaoyan saw the swallow in that broken house, she was already more than four months pregnant. In order to prove her innocence, the foolish old father actually decided to let the swallow give birth to the child and then appraise it. Yanzi was so young. If she gave birth to the child, her life would be completely ruined.

No matter who the father of the child was, he must stop this absurd decision, Lin Xiaoyan thought.

Lin Xiaoyan moved a long bench and sat in front of the bed to talk to the swallow alone.

"I am here to help you. "

Yanzi glanced at her and did not say anything.

"I know you have suffered a lot of grievances, so you treat me as your sister and tell me about your grievances. . . "

The swallow began to sob.

In the past, when she wrote a gourmet report, she would never encounter such a situation and Lin Xiaoyan did not want to give up easily. After grinding for more than an hour, the swallow finally opened its mouth.

So it was the two old men in the village who took advantage of her being alone at home and repeatedly forced her. She was both afraid and shy and did not dare to tell anyone. She also did not know who the child in her womb was. The old father was covered in injustice because of her, and he was full of resentment towards her. He would either beat her or scold her. She also did not dare to say the truth, afraid that no one would believe it.

Before she left, Lin Xiaoyan gave all the bread, biscuits, and other things that she had brought to Swallow. She rushed back to the newspaper office hungry that night.

The next day, this report was published as the front page of the headlines. On the day of the report, the local police reacted quickly and arrested the two criminals. After that, Lin Xiaoyan picked up a few follow-up reports and planned a charity fundraiser. She took the swallow to the city hospital and aborted the child.

Lin Xiaoyan did not expect this interview to change the fate of a little girl's life. She saved a broken family and even let two villains bring justice to her. This was a sense of achievement that she would never be able to obtain as a gourmet reporter.

This interview also changed Lin Xiaoyan's fate. When Director Wang asked if she was interested in running into politics and law, she readily agreed.

How could she become a good reporter? Lin Xiaoyan often thought about this question. Choosing this profession meant that she had to face a lot of things.

In the process of venturing deep into the scene, she would often be looked down upon by others. She had encountered all kinds of difficulties and even dangers. When these things gradually merged into her life, it didn't just increase her experience. It also increased the purification of the soul and the comprehension of life. This made her even more convinced that her choice back then was right.

The first time she saw Jiang Feng was at a murder scene.

Jiang Feng's eyes were as sharp as a falcon's, and his broad shoulders. The corner of his mouth was slightly crooked when he smiled. His angular face was always calm, making it difficult for people to pry into his inner world. Every time they met at the crime scene, Lin Xiaoyan always wanted to dig more materials so that she could write the script vivid and realistic. It would catch people's eyes. Jiang Feng pretended to be deaf and mute, not knowing what he was asking. He looked left and right at him. If the nail touched too many times, the conflict between the two would be unavoidable.

She had to admit that she had been infatuated with the handsome Jiang Feng once or twice, and had even secretly asked him if he had a girlfriend. Jiang Feng rarely looked at her. Occasionally, he would look at her, and his eyes were always full of vigilance. He seemed to have a deep prejudice against reporters. Lin Xiaoyan slowly gave up.

"Lin Xiaoyan, bring it up for interrogation. " Someone outside the door shouted loudly, pulling her out of her thoughts and back to reality.

"Present!" Lin Xiaoyan quickly stood up from the cement floor.

Would the police who came to be interrogated be Jiang Feng? She thought as she walked.
