After hearing all this, Han Fei remained silent for a few seconds before speaking.
"Then have you ever thought about what your brother would do or think if he knew his older brother was a murderer? Have you considered how his classmates would look at him if they knew his brother was a murderer?"
Gou Yong opened his mouth, but no words came out.
Han Fei's questions, of course, he had thought about.
But he still went ahead and did it.
Because he was confident that he had done it flawlessly.
After all, the method of amplifying a person's negative emotions and guilt to the point of suicide was already close to perfect crime; he hadn't directly killed anyone.
Logically speaking, it was almost impossible for the police to find any evidence against him.
Even if the police suspected him, it wouldn't matter as long as he didn't confess, and the police couldn't do anything to him.
But his bad luck was that he encountered Xu Mo.
The effect of the truth serum was something he couldn't resist...
"I have a question, how did you find the opportunity to get close to Lu Yu? Or was Lu Yu also your client?" Xu Mo suddenly asked.
Gou Yong nodded.
"Yes, he had the bad habit of abusing small animals. His parents were afraid that this would be detrimental to his mental and physical development, so a few days ago, they brought him to my psychological clinic. It's quite coincidental that I only found out about Haozi being bullied at school by Lu Yu through our conversations. If he hadn't become my client, I might not have known until now that my brother was being bullied at school. This is fate, the heavens sent him to me..."
Xu Mo was right.
Lu Yu was also one of Gou Yong's clients, which was why he had the opportunity to induce Lu Yu's suicide.
"What about Zhu Xingde and Yang Meng? And that..." Xu Mo hadn't asked the name of the man he had just rescued, so he used a placeholder: "And that lawyer, they didn't bully your brother, did they? Why did you kill them?"
Gou Yong said calmly,
"They didn't bully my brother, but I said from the beginning, they were guilty, and this is the punishment they deserved. Fate arranged for these criminals to come to my psychological clinic so that I could kill them and uphold justice. I followed the guidance of fate, that's all."
"Speaking of which, I have to thank Lu Yu. If it weren't for him, I wouldn't have realized that merely providing psychological counseling is useless; it doesn't change anything. Only when those who do evil are all dead will there be no more victims! Those people deserved to die; they got what they deserved."
Before Xu Mo and Han Fei could ask, he began to explain one by one.
"That Zhu Xingde, in his early years, to make money, deceived an elderly person living alone to invest all their life savings in stocks, resulting in the loss of the old man's life savings. The old man committed suicide at home because of this. He made money by selling his conscience and causing someone's death."
"As for Yang Meng, she's an online streamer, you should know that. She came to me because she had failed plastic surgery and felt she had no courage to live. I was originally going to persuade her, but as we talked, I found out that she had broken up many families for money, causing many families to fall apart. How many people did she harm? How many families did she destroy? How many children did she deprive of either paternal or maternal love, of a family that should have been happy and complete?"
"And Wu Yue, the lawyer you mentioned, in his early years, he sold his conscience for money, defending a rich second-generation who caused an accident. The rich second-generation only paid some money and was sentenced for a short time before being released. Was such a punishment enough to offset a life? Wu Yue was aiding and abetting a tiger. A person who can sell his conscience for money is not fit to be a lawyer. His existence will only make it harder for more people to get fair and just judgments."
Gou Yong stopped here.
He had confessed everything he needed to.
Xu Mo and Han Fei understood.
Gou Yong's initial murder was because of his brother.
Lu Yu, who bullied his brother at school, happened to be sent to his psychological clinic by his parents due to his habit of abusing small animals.
It was because of this that Gou Yong learned about his brother being bullied by Lu Yu.
To prevent anyone from harming his brother again, he used his psychological skills to stir up Lu Yu's negative emotions, leading to Lu Yu's suicide by jumping off a building.
After using this method to kill someone, Gou Yong's sense of justice began to twist.
He started to believe that this was the arrangement of fate, so he repeated the process, inducing several people he believed deserved death to jump off buildings and commit suicide, guiding them to atone for their sins and find liberation through suicide.
Those people were indeed at fault, but it wasn't up to him to judge them.
It was even less appropriate to achieve his so-called justice by inducing people to commit suicide.
Han Fei organized Gou Yong's confession, printed it out, and brought it to Gou Yong.
"This is your confession, it records everything you said. Take a look and see if there are any issues. If there aren't, sign it."
Gou Yong quickly glanced through it, nodded, and then took the pen from Han Fei to sign his name on the confession.
Afterward, Han Fei called in a police officer to temporarily detain Gou Yong.
This case, which had troubled Han Fei for a day and two nights, was finally solved.
I wasted so much time looking at the surveillance footage. If I had known Xu Mo would bring back the key clues to solve the case, I wouldn't have bothered... Han Fei rubbed his slightly sore eyes.
"Are you hungry, Xu Mo? How about we go grab some late-night snacks together?"
Xu Mo smiled, "I am a bit hungry, but are you treating?"
"Of course, let's go." Han Fei said very generously, "By the way, I have a question for you."
"Hmm? What question?"
"Why did Gou Yong suddenly confess? I've been racking my brain trying to figure it out. Was it just because you told him to confess and he would be leniently treated? I said that too, but it didn't work for me."
Xu Mo had a mysterious expression, "Han, to be honest, I used truth serum!"
Han Fei: "……"
He gave Xu Mo a big eye roll.
If you don't want to tell me, just say so. Truth serum? Isn't that something from TV shows? Do you think I'm a three-year-old, so easy to fool?
