Don't Lie to Your Therapist—She Already Knows Your Fate Chapter 58: Discovery of a Cold Case from Years Ago

Even though they weren’t close, Zhao Yu could see the girl’s body was covered in wounds, clear evidence of inhuman abuse.

The mont she leaped, everything else seed to turn transparent. Zhao Yu subconsciously reached out, running to try and grab her, but...

Zhao Yu jolted awake from the nightmare, gasping for air.

His pajamas were soaked in sweat. A suffocating heat in his chest made Zhao Yu feel like he was about to die from the pressure.

CLICK!

Flicking on the room light, Zhao Yu imdiately looked at his phone. The screen glowed brightly, displaying 2:21 AM.

He got up and ran to the bathroom, splashing his face with cold water.

As he passed the mirror on the wall, Zhao Yu was startled by a face that appeared in it. He stumbled backward and fell right onto his bed.

But sohow, his fear wasn’t as intense as it had been during the day. The image of this face leaping to its death had shaken him to his core.

"Don’t co near . We’re from two different worlds, the living and the dead. You’ll pass your yin energy to , and then I’ll kick the bucket too." Zhao Yu said, trying his best to stay calm. He clutched a lighter in his hand but didn’t flick it open.

"If you don’t listen to , I’ll have to light this. It’ll hurt you. That beautiful master gave it to , I’m sure you saw."

After Zhao Yu said this, the chill in the air around him seed to dissipate slightly.

But the atmosphere in the house still frightened him.

"If you want to do sothing, you can tell , or... write it down. Just don’t co near , okay?"

「The next day, 10:00 AM.」

The first thing Zhao Yu did after waking up wasn’t to eat. He didn’t even have ti to respond to his landlady calling him for breakfast. He just splashed so water on his face and ran toward Wen’s Psychological Clinic.

The clinic door was open, and a wave of relief washed over Zhao Yu.

"Doctor Wen, I want to help her get revenge!"

That was the first thing Zhao Yu said after bursting through the door.

"She’s just so pitiful! I had a nightmare yesterday. In the dream, I saw the horrific way she died. Then I woke up in the middle of the night, and she appeared in my mirror. She told what happened to her, so I want to help her get revenge! Those people are worse than animals! They have to face the full force of the law!"

Wen Ying looked up at Zhao Yu, her voice soft but firm. "Are you really sure?"

Zhao Yu nodded. "Doctor Wen, I don’t know if this will be difficult for you, but I’m asking you to help , and to help her. She can’t be allowed to die with such a grievance."

"Alright. Wait a mont, I’m livestreaming."

’So that’s what the small drone hovering over Wen Ying’s head this morning was for?’

’I can’t believe it’s a livestream!’

’Does that an everyone in the stream heard what I just said?’

He wondered if any of his colleagues were in the audience. Zhao Yu’s heart skipped a beat.

[He’s stunned! He’s totally stunned! HAHAHAHA! I suddenly love this scene so much!]

[Finding out you’re on a livestream without knowing it! I wonder what he’d think if he knew there were hundreds of thousands of people watching?]

[I’m curious who this person he ntioned is, the one who can’t rest in peace? And what’s this about having a nightmare and then eting them? Is this livestream really taking place in the mortal world?]

[Sa here! Doctor Wen, can you tell us?]

[What they said! ^ There’s no problem Doctor Wen can’t solve on her stream! *eagerly blinking and gnawing on my hand*]

"Doctor Wen, are they curious about what I just said? Is it possible the people involved back then will see this?"

After all, he worked in livestream operations, so he was very familiar with how this stuff worked.

"Do you want to tell everyone?" Wen Ying asked in return. "You are my patient, and you’ve paid."

After weighing the pros and cons, Zhao Yu decided it was a good idea.

After all, this stream was a hit, which ant good money. Since he’d already invested so much emotionally, going a little further would let everyone know about what happened to Miao Miao, and it could serve as a wake-up call for all.

With the mindset of not letting a good opportunity go to waste, Zhao Yu agreed.

"Doctor Wen, is this drone the livestream cara?" Zhao Yu asked, looking at the drone.

As expected, his question sparked a new round of discussion in the livestream chat.

"Is the angle all-encompassing, or...?" Zhao Yu asked pointedly, and Wen Ying understood what he ant.

"It’s an adjustable device. It can show any angle you want. I can’t disclose the specifics. It’s currently one-of-a-kind on the market."

Hearing this, Zhao Yu didn’t ask any more questions. He had achieved his goal.

But neither of them could have expected that this topic would also end up trending on Weibo. Of course, that’s a story for later.

Zhao Yu sat in the chair and recounted Miao Miao’s story. The viewers in the livestream were filled with righteous indignation.

However, so details were naturally not fit for a livestream, and Zhao Yu managed this part with a good sense of propriety.

[Doctor Wen, does his problem take up one of the call-in slots?]

[I don’t think it should. He’s Doctor Wen’s patient, but he obviously didn’t pay today.]

When Zhao Yu took out his phone to search for Wen Ying’s livestream, the first thing he saw was the discussion about whether he was taking up a call-in slot. He felt a strange sense of unease.

However, Zhao Yu was curious about this as well. Just as he was about to ask, he heard Wen Ying say, "It doesn’t take up a slot. Everyone can rest assured."

[We’re relieved! Doctor Wen, please solve Miao Miao’s case first! That’s the most important thing!]

Many comnts in the chat echoed this sentint.

All they could see was Doctor Wen taking a ballpoint pen from her hair and scribbling on a piece of paper, though no one knew what she was writing.

Three minutes later, she handed the paper to Zhao Yu. "You can go to the police now. After the case is closed, you might even receive a comndation and a reward."

[I just rembered sothing! Do you guys rember that girl who went missing three years ago? Vanished without a trace, no person and no body ever found!]

[Wasn’t her na also sothing like Miao Miao? They searched for a long ti but couldn’t find her, so the case just went cold! It can’t be such a coincidence, can it?!]

[I found the news article! Everyone, take a look! Is this the girl?]

The comnter posted a picture. In the photo was a beautiful, youthful girl with a sweet and radiant smile.

When Zhao Yu saw the photo, his mind went blank for a second. The girl in the picture looked exactly like the one he had seen in his dream!

[The police offered a 100,000 yuan reward for this case back then! I think the girl’s parents put up the money! But they never found her in the end!]

[So we’re witnessing a case unfold right here on Doctor Wen’s livestream?]

[Those people should be caught and given the death by a thousand cuts! Poor Miao Miao! I rember her parents cried until they passed out, and her school kept saying what a helpful kid Miao Miao was.]

Zhao Yu recalled the ghost’s words and couldn’t help but speak, his voice trembling. "She told ... that day, she went out to eat by herself. On the road, she saw an elderly person who seed to be lost and hungry, so she went up to help. She took the old person to a noodle shop they wanted to go to. After they went inside, she lost consciousness, and when she woke up..."
