Captain Chen from the fire department, however, had a fruitful visit. He compiled a full page of issues that needed rectification and patiently explained to Manager Liu how to make the necessary improvements.

"Did you remember all the issues I mentioned? A small leak can sink a great ship. Fire safety is no trivial matter; it can't be taken lightly. Keep this rectification notice safe. We'll be back for a follow-up inspection," Captain Chen said.

Manager Liu smiled as he took the notice. "No problem, we'll make the changes," he replied, though inwardly he couldn't help but grumble, *What are you really here for? Do you even know? Why put on such a convincing act?*

Back at the station, Mu Mian remarked, "Jiang Yinian must have another lab."

"Where could that other lab be?" someone asked.

Lin Sen analyzed, "Labs require a lot of space. If he's conducting illegal experiments, he'd need high levels of secrecy and security. He wouldn't rent a space for it, so the lab is likely built on property he owns or trusts."

Fang Rui added, "Then I'll have someone look into the properties under his name."

Lin Sen continued, "We should also investigate the properties owned by the Lin family."

A few days later, the investigation into the students' parents finally yielded some leads.

Old Zhang reported, "Captain Fang, we've found some clues. One parent mentioned that someone approached her, offering a large sum of money in exchange for her son's participation in testing a new drug. She refused, fearing it might harm her child."

Fang Rui and Mu Mian went to visit the parent.

Her name was Li Yushan, a single mother with limited education who made a living running a small food stall. Fang Rui and Mu Mian approached her stall.

It was the weekend, and her son, Linlin, wasn't in school. He sat on a small stool by the roadside, diligently working on his homework.

Fang Rui first supported her business by buying a pile of her fried skewers, planning to share them with the team later. Then he began asking questions: "Was there someone who approached you, wanting your son to test a drug for them?"

Li Yushan, busy frying chicken cutlets and strips, replied, "Are you the police? Your colleagues already came by, and I told them everything."

"Yes," Fang Rui confirmed.

"A few days ago, two people came to me. They said they had developed a drug that could enhance intelligence but needed clinical trials. They chose my son as a test subject. They offered me 200,000 yuan if I agreed. I was furious and chased them away. Hmph, my son is already so smart—why would he need an intelligence boost?"

Linlin, however, wasn't particularly bright. He often ranked last in his class, struggled with homework, and was frequently called in for parent-teacher meetings. Despite this, Li Yushan believed her son was the best—just not great at exams, but otherwise well-behaved.

"Do you have their contact information?" Fang Rui asked.

"Yes, they gave me a business card, saying I could reach out if I changed my mind," Li Yushan replied, removing her gloves and pulling a card from her cash box. She handed it to Fang Rui.

The card read: "Clinical Trial Recruitment Platform" and listed the recruiter's name as Ye Yuanqing. It was a legitimate third-party company.

Mu Mian crouched beside Linlin, curious about his homework.

She had never seen a child write so slowly. He was meticulous, writing each stroke carefully, but the characters were messy, crooked, and often incorrect.

"'Gan' is written wrong here. You're missing a stroke," Mu Mian couldn't help but correct him.

Linlin added a stroke to the character.

Mu Mian noticed something was off. She examined Linlin's homework and realized he frequently made mistakes—missing strokes, flipping characters, or writing them crookedly.

She pulled out Linlin's cognitive test results and quickly spotted the anomaly.

The memory test had two sections: short-term and long-term memory. The short-term test used numbers, and Linlin scored highly. But in the long-term memory test, which used words, he scored zero.

"Linlin, can you not read these characters?" Mu Mian suspected Linlin had dyslexia. It wasn't that he wasn't trying—he simply couldn't write the characters correctly.

Linlin shook his head. "I can read them," he said.

"Then why can't you write them correctly?"

Linlin lowered his head and stayed silent.

"Linlin, it's okay if you can't read them. Just tell me the truth, okay?"

"Wah... Mom works so hard to pay for my schooling. I can't not know these characters. I want to study hard so Mom doesn't have to struggle, but I just can't learn. I'm stupid! The characters are like bugs—they keep moving around, and I can't understand or remember them."

Hearing her son cry, Li Yushan rushed over and hugged him. "Linlin, what's wrong? What happened?"

"Mom, I'm not stupid!"

"Linlin, of course you're not stupid. You're the best, Mom's pride and joy," Li Yushan said, shooting a glare at Mu Mian.

"But I always come last in class. I can't write the characters right!"

"You'll get better when you're older."

Mu Mian, feeling guilty for upsetting the child, said to Fang Rui, "I didn't mean to."

"Let's buy him some snacks to cheer him up."

"Okay."

Mu Mian went to the supermarket across the street and bought a pile of candies and cookies. On the way back, she dragged Fang Rui into a bookstore.

"Fang Rui, Linlin might have dyslexia. He struggles to read text. I want to give him some picture books so he can enjoy fairy tales too. All kids love fairy tales," Mu Mian said.

"Good idea."

Mu Mian gave the snacks and books to Linlin.

Li Yushan quickly said, "How much do I owe you? I'll transfer the money."

"This is a gift for Linlin," Mu Mian replied, handing the book to Linlin. "This is a fairy tale. Can you understand it?"

Linlin flipped through the picture book, fascinated by the illustrations. It was his first time owning a fairy tale book and the first time he could understand one.

"Thank you, sister."

Before leaving, Mu Mian took Li Yushan aside while Linlin was picking wildflowers by the roadside. "Linlin might have dyslexia. It makes it hard for him to read and write. You might need to send him to a special school."

Li Yushan was stunned. "Are you saying Linlin is really... slow?"

"Linlin isn't slow. It's a condition. You should take him to a specialist and follow their advice."

"Okay, thank you." But Li Yushan couldn't afford to send Linlin for treatment. She didn't have the money to cover the high costs.

"Sister, this is for you," Linlin said, handing Mu Mian a bunch of wildflowers.

"Thank you."

As they left the food stall, Mu Mian asked, "Linlin's mom loves him so much. How could she not realize he has dyslexia? Isn't that common knowledge?"

Fang Rui replied, "Mu Mian, many mothers don't know about these conditions. They just think their child isn't smart enough."

After they left, Li Yushan watched Linlin, who was now engrossed in the picture book. She took out her phone and made a call.
