Luke frowned: This situation is not right.

But he didn't say anything, just waited quietly, waiting for Jessica in front of him to finish reading a string of street names and then slowly calm down.

However, he could sense through telepathic communication that she was not truly at peace.

All the intense emotions were only temporarily suppressed by her action of reading out the street name just now.

He sighed inwardly and prepared to call it a day.

As someone who possessed telepathic communication and basic hypnosis abilities, he already knew that Jessica's mental state was problematic, which was why he hadn't asked her before.

Now, he just probed a little, and he felt that Jessica's whole body was wilting, and there was a sense of mania spreading inside. This must be an unpleasant feeling.

After Jessica calmed down, she said, "I don't want to talk about this now." Then she walked back to the room.

Luke pondered her words and felt that there was still hope.

If you don't want to talk about it now, you can talk about it later.

He is patient, and patience is the most important thing for a police officer to handle a case.

The conversation between the two ended here.

Soon, Harley arrived in a hurry.

After talking with Luke and Richard for a while, she asked Selina to take Molly, who was tired of struggling, into the bedroom.

Richard looked at the closed bedroom door, feeling uneasy, and moved closer to Luke: "Luke, this... won't be a problem, right?"

Luke: "We can only trust Dr. Harley. She is a professional. But you may have to cancel your trip home."

Richard became nervous: "No, I won't blame Molly, she just has some mental problems..."

Luke raised his hand to stop him: "Richard, I have no intention of taking you back to the police station now, nor do I want to in the future. What I mean is that you'd better find a place for Molly to go, and then go home after we solve this matter."

Richard breathed a sigh of relief and asked tentatively, "Where?"

Luke: "Let's ask Dr. Harley later. Maybe she has some suitable suggestions."

Richard's face fell. What good advice did the psychologist have? Wasn't it just to send him to a mental hospital

But putting a daughter with mental problems in a detention room would only make things worse.

Luke didn't try to comfort him.

Given Molly's current condition, the best outcome would be for her to be admitted to a mental hospital. He couldn't have too high expectations for Richard and his wife.

Harley's treatment lasted for more than an hour.

When she came out with a tired face, Richard and his wife immediately surrounded her: "Dr. Harley, how is Molly?"

Harley glanced at everyone in the room, and finally looked at Jessica: "Ms. Jones, I can't tell you about the patient's condition, so could you please step aside for a moment?"

Jessica, who had been sitting quietly in the corner, looked up blankly, and Harley repeated what she had just said.

Jessica stood up silently and walked out of the room.

Harley didn't talk to everyone for long. She just told Richard and his wife that Molly's condition was temporarily stable, but she needed to go to a specialist hospital for treatment and observation immediately. This was the best choice for them and their daughter.

This treatment will not be short, so Richard and his wife need to be mentally prepared.

Then, at Luke's inquiry, Harley offered a specialist hospital, Kings Park Sanatorium.

This sanatorium is located on the west side of Brooklyn, near the sea. The environment is pretty good. This is also where Harley works now.

Harley assured Richard and his wife that Molly would be able to receive "normal" treatment in there and they could visit Molly frequently.

Richard and his wife were overwhelmed by what happened today and quickly agreed with Harley's opinion.

Luke's car was most suitable for escorting dangerous people, so he temporarily acted as a driver and took Molly to the sanatorium.

Richard and his wife followed behind in their car.

The deal was settled and everyone went out.

This time, Luke and Selina both helped, taking Molly's belongings downstairs at once and putting them in Richard and his wife's car.

When leaving the house, Jessica suddenly jogged a few steps outside and caught up with Luke: “Give me your phone number.”

As Luke led Molly forward, he took out his business card and handed it to her: "I hope you won't keep me waiting too long, Miss Jones."

Jessica didn't respond, took the business card, put it in her pocket, and left quickly.

Harry, who was following behind, watched the scene with great interest, her eyes full of inquiry.

She certainly didn't think that Jessica had a crush on Luke. It was more likely that she had something to discuss with him in private.

She was also interested in Jessica, the woman.

But now her energy is mainly on Molly, and she is not in a hurry to contact Jessica.

Half an hour later, Luke looked around the sanatorium by the sea. "It looks like the environment is OK. It's not like something out of a horror movie."

Selina walked with him on the rocks by the sea, jumping and skipping, and said casually: "You don't watch horror movies very often, how do you know what the shape will be?"

Luke rolled his eyes. “I watched Jennifer Perry’s famous movie when I was in middle school. She was called the Scream Queen at that time. Do you dare to say that it is not a horror movie?”

Selina was speechless.

In that movie, there was darkness, a masked killer, and the beautiful Jennifer running wildly in her open, wet pajamas. These three classic elements of a horror movie were all present. How could it not be a horror movie

She could only change the subject: "How do we find that Kilgrave? Judging from the fact that he gave Molly away and hinted at her murder or suicide, he probably won't care about this abandoned "toy" anymore."

Luke sighed. "Harley said earlier that he might have been too arrogant to give Molly a gag order. Now it seems that he is not arrogant, he just wants Molly to kill herself."

If he had not been there, it would be hard to say whether one or three people would have died in the elevator.

"Let's look for surveillance footage near Molly's apartment and see if we can find any clues about Kilgrave," he said.

The two chatted for a while, and then saw a man walking in from the small door of the sanatorium.

"Thank you, Harley." Luke said.

Harley pushed up her black-framed glasses and ruffled her blond hair that was messed up by the sea breeze. "This is my case, too, isn't it? What are you going to do?"

Luke: "Molly, tell us if you have any clues. Recently, we will focus on finding Kilgrave's whereabouts and try to solve this problem as soon as possible."

Harley: "Although I hate to say it, this probably won't do any good to Molly's condition unless she sees this man die with her own eyes."

Luke chuckled: "I'm a detective, using guns is my specialty. You're a doctor, treating patients is your specialty, isn't it?"

She was silent for a moment: "Yes, I can only hope that everything goes well for you."
