“Auntie must have spouted nonsense to you again. She’s a very emotional person. Don’t overthink it.”
Feng Jing did not expect Yin Tao to ask him so directly. He never told outsiders about his past.
Feng Jing had always thought that there were some wounds that were best not to be exposed. Weakness would only be mocked by others. To wear one’s broken heart on one’s sleeves would only expose one’s vulnerabilities sometimes.
“Brother Feng, why did you come to City A?” Yin Tao thought about it and decided to keep probing. This was because she didn’t know much about Feng Jing’s brother’s case. If she wanted to help, she had to get information from Feng Jing.
Feng Jing was silent for a while. He looked at the girl who was staring at him and sighed softly. ‘To investigate a case from many years ago.”
“The kidnapping case in the capital fifteen years ago?” Yin Tao asked in a low voice while keenly observing Feng Jing’s reaction.
“Yes, actually, this is not a secret. Many police officers in the police station know about it.” Feng Jing’s tone was very calm, as if he was talking about something very mundane.
“My brother was killed because he was trying to protect me.” Feng Jing felt a sharp pain in his heart when he thought of his brother.
Back then, Feng Ye was already sixteen years old. The robber’s target was Feng Jing, who was younger. Feng Ye met with an accident when he was trying to chase after the people who had kidnapped his younger brother.
“Your brother must have been very brave to risk everything to protect you.” Yin Tao didn’t know how to comfort Feng Jing. After all, the damage caused by Feng Ye’s death was incurable.
“That’s right. Compared to him, I’m just a coward. It’s been so many years, but I still can’t walk out of it.” Feng Jing lowered his head in desolation. It was not that he didn’t understand that nothing would change the fact that Feng Ye had passed away, no matter how much he grieved. However, Feng Jing couldn’t control his emotions.
“Losing one’s loved ones is bound to be a lifelong pain. How can one walk out of it?” Yin Tao looked at Feng Jing with some heartache. This tall man in front of her also had a very vulnerable side to him.
“This is the first time someone hasn’t tried to console me. All these years, most people tell me to put the past behind me, to let it go and so on.” Feng Jing was a little surprised by Yin Tao’s reaction.
“I am trying to console you.” A faint smile appeared on Yin Tao’s face, and her eyes became much gentler. “It’s just that in my opinion, forgetting your deceased loved one isn’t the way to walk out of it.”
“Human relationships are very complicated. How can you let go of them so easily?’ In actual fact, Yin Tao had always been unfamiliar with relationships between relatives. She had always been the one person that her relatives ignored most easily before or after transmigrating into a book.
“That’s right. I’ve worked hard for so many years. When I close my eyes, I still think of the scene before my brother passed away.” This was the first time Feng Jing had displayed his vulnerability in front of others. His identity as a detective forced him to maintain his fortitude at all times.
“Because we haven’t caught the murderer yet.” As soon as Yin Tao finished speaking, she saw Feng Jing’s expression become much more solemn.
“It’s all my fault for not being strong enough at that time. I couldn’t remember the murderer’s appearance at all. The psychiatrist said that it was a type of traumatic psychological disorder. I blocked out some of the terrifying memories in order to protect myself.”
Feng Jing wished that he could exchange his pain for the memories of the day he was kidnapped. In order to find Feng Ye’s murderer, he had gone to countless cities over the years, but he hadn’t found anything.
“Brother Feng, you’re being too harsh on a child who hasn’t reached adulthood.” Yin Tao looked at Feng Jing and her relaxed tone allowed the atmosphere in the room to not be too oppressive.
“It’s considered not bad. At the very least, I didn’t allow him to be hurt or suffer the pain that was to be his.”
Feng Jing smiled bitterly. In fact, he had wanted to end his life countless times, but that wouldn’t bring his brother back. Moreover, his life was saved by his brother. Feng Jing felt that he had no right to decide to take his life away.
“It’s clearly the fault of the criminals. Why are you blaming yourself?” Yin Tao looked at Feng Jing, feeling very sorry for him. He must have had a hard time all these years if that was how he felt.
“Therefore, no matter how much time has passed, I have to catch him.” Feng Jing was determined. From the day he became a detective, Feng Jing had resolved that he would personally bring his brother’s murderer to justice..
