On the afternoon of the 3rd, the reporter of Yangcheng Evening News contacted Maojian Psychiatric Hospital in Shiyan City. A nurse on duty confirmed that there was indeed a patient named Guo in the hospital, and said that the patient was "sent by the unit" and "his family will pick him up and leave the hospital in the near future". When the reporter asked about Guo's current illness and "Is he really mentally ill?" The nurse said: "Is it (mental illness) that we have the final say? Can you come to us if you are not sick? "
On the evening of the 3rd, Guo's sister said in an interview that on the morning of the 3rd, people from Zhuxi County Public Security Bureau, Construction Bureau and Letters and Calls Office negotiated with her and agreed to release Guo, but she was worried that Guo would not adapt to the society and could not take care of himself. I hope the relevant departments can handle and compensate him. As a result, the talks between the two sides broke down.
That night, the reporter contacted Xia, the director of the county party Committee who led the team to negotiate with his family on the same day, but his phone was never answered, and the reporter sent an interview message and did not get a reply. Chen Shunguo, deputy director of Shiyan Public Security Bureau, said he didn't know about it, and then hung up. Wang Xuefeng, director of Shiyan Foreign Affairs Office, told reporters that he had not noticed the online posts and needed to know before replying.
