Chapter 216
"I understand all of this." Zhong Qiao sighed deeply. "I'm not stupid. Initially, because my parents were injured, I lost my mind and really wanted to kill Xu Shaojun."
"But afterwards I immediately realized there was something strange about this. Not only was Xu Shaojun afraid to do such a thing, but I also noticed that all the neighbors had come, except for one person."
She met Ji Hebai's eyes and saw a tacit understanding in each other's eyes.
"Uncle Lin."
Yes, Uncle Lin, who appeared to have a close relationship with their family, was usually always close to their family. However, when something happened this time, he disappeared. This was really strange.
Ji Hebai said, "I came to the hospital just to tell you about this. I asked them to investigate. When the incident happened, Uncle Lin was fishing. There was nothing fishy going on, but I found a loophole."
"That is, the place where he fished was half an hour away from your home, and this half an hour was enough for him to have the motive to commit the crime and return to the scene."
"The only thing that doesn't make sense now is, since he chose to frame Xu Shaojun, why didn't he come to the hospital and be a good person at this time? Or did he just disappear from the world?"
Zhong Qiao also fell into deep thought.
“That’s something I can’t understand.”
"But it doesn't matter." Zhong Qiao looked at the apple in his hand. "We still have the letter. Perhaps it can tell us all the answers."
The two smiled at each other.
It was late at night and Zhong Qiao was drowsy, but Ji Hebai was still waiting beside him. Suddenly, there was a movement at the door.
Ji Hebai immediately became alert: "What's wrong?"
There was no response for a long time, and finally someone answered, "Ms. Zhong? I have a phone call for you."
Hearing this voice, Ji Hebai realized that it was a nurse from the hospital, who should be the person on duty in charge of Mr. and Mrs. Zhong. If he remembered correctly, it should be a young girl who had just graduated.
Ji Hebai couldn't make up his mind and gently pushed Zhong Qiao a few times: "Qiao Qiao, Qiao Qiao."
Zhong Qiao was too tired. After going through so many things, she finally had a chance to take a short rest next to Ji Hebai, so she lay on the edge of the bed without any reaction.
Ji Hebai looked at her sleeping face, feeling helpless.
The nurse outside knocked on the door anxiously and continued to urge: "Miss Zhong, could you please hurry up? It's the night shift now, and it's disturbing a lot of patients. They are all complaining."
Ji Hebai frowned slightly, but had no choice but to answer the phone for Zhong Qiao.
He pushed open the door and said, "Take me there."
The nurse was startled: "It's you."
Good guy, she didn't recognize him at first, but later when a colleague mentioned him, she finally knew who this ancestor was. If she had known he was here, how could she have dared to rush him? He must have come to serve tea and water respectfully.
Ji Hebai showed some impatience, but still managed to maintain his composure: "Please take me there."
The nurse blushed and nodded.
Just after he left, Zhong Qiao was still sleeping soundly. After a while, the door opened gently and a figure quietly slipped into the ward. She was also dressed as a nurse and without thinking, she started to inject into Zhong's father's fluid.
Just as the needle was about to touch the rubber tube, the woman's hand was pinched.
"What do you want to do?" Ji Hebai, who had returned, shouted angrily and knocked over the things in her hand.
The woman was grabbed by his elbow and was shocked: "You are not?"
She stammered and couldn't say anything.
Zhong Qiao, who should have been fast asleep, slowly stood up and asked, "Are you really going to say that we should have been sent away by you?"
The woman looked at the two of them and realized that she had been tricked. She immediately became furious and said, "How dare you trick me?"
Zhong Qiao said, "What are we kidding you about? We didn't ask anything and didn't do anything, Miss Nurse."
That last title is quite ironic.
The woman couldn't break free and could only shout, "I'm a medical worker here, what do you want to do to me?"
She let out a shrill scream and started punching and kicking Ji Hebai. Zhong Qiao couldn't stand it anymore, so he kicked her hard, making her kneel on the ground.
"I'll ask you a few questions, and you answer truthfully." Zhong Qiao looked down at her, "What are you doing here?"
"Why did you inject what you have into my dad's injection?"
"Also, who ordered you to do this?"
A series of three questions made the woman anxious.
"I don't know." She repeated this sentence tremblingly, "Don't ask me anymore, I don't know anything."
Zhong Qiao persisted, "If you know nothing, then let me ask you, what is the deep hatred between you and our family? Have my parents ever done anything wrong to you? Tell me, and maybe I can give you a chance to live."
The woman said, "I'm just mentally ill. I'm a lunatic."
Seeing that she was acting crazy and refused to listen to any persuasion, Zhong Qiao became a little angry.
Ji Hebai's voice was icy: "You treat my wife as a fool, but you haven't seen my methods, right?"
The woman's expression changed.
She had indeed never seen Ji Hebai's methods, but she had heard that this man was swift and decisive. His companions who fell into his hands were in agony, with not a single piece of good flesh on their bodies. He was truly a living devil.
"Since you don't want to listen when I say nice things to you, then let's take you to the police station." Ji Hebai carried her out.
The assistant at the door had been waiting for a long time. When he saw the woman being twisted and brought out, his face changed.
I didn’t expect that it would come true.
This group of people will definitely take action tonight.
"Take her back to the police station and interrogate her thoroughly." Ji Hebai said this and handed the woman to his assistant.
The assistant was also quite efficient. Although the woman refused to listen to his persuasion, there were various ways to make her tell the truth. By the third day, the woman could no longer bear it.
"Letter." She just said this word.
A lot of information was revealed because of one word, but the woman was just a small follower, and many tasks were assigned directly by her superiors. She didn't know the other party's appearance and identity, so the information she could know was limited.
This information was enough to make Ji Hebai fall into a new round of contemplation.
Because all directions seem to point to Hong Kong.
Whether it is Uncle Lin, the Zhong family, or the person hiding in the darkness, they all seem to be pointing to Hong Kong.
He stroked the envelope.
The idea that Zhong Qiao gave him was obviously not only useful, but also opened up a new path that had been fruitless for so many years. This path would most likely allow him to find out the truth.
"Is it the Xie family?" Ji Hebai thought to himself, "Or is it someone bigger than the Xie family?"
Then things will become tricky. He needs to find the other party to solve the ending, an ending that is certain to end in death.
