At the same time, in the detention center.
The middle-aged man glanced at the cold, hard steamed bun in Zhou Yi's hand, then shared half of his boiled cabbage with Zhou Yi: "Soak it in water, it won't be so hard to chew."
"Just wait a little longer. I won't stay here forever. I'll come and get you as soon as I get out."
Zhou Yi smiled gratefully: "Thank you for your kindness. I'm only here temporarily. At the latest, someone will come to find me tomorrow."
Hearing Zhou Yi's confident words, the middle-aged man was momentarily at a loss as to whether to comfort him or say something else.
This is no ordinary detention center. Being able to get in means that the case is not simple. Even the richest and most powerful people can only wait to die here.
If it weren't for his high social standing and having a backup plan, he probably would have... The middle-aged man shook his head. Forget it, why should he shatter the young man's illusions?
"Yes, we'll all be able to get out then!"
In any case, this young man saved his life.
Once I've cleared my name, I'll do whatever it takes to rescue the young man.
The middle-aged man ate his meal while pondering whether his backup plan should be activated by now.
When his political enemies step down, his stains will be overturned and re-examined, and he can naturally walk out of here unscathed!
Just then, the warden, wearing leather shoes, stood outside the detention center where the two men were being held.
"Da da da".
"Click".
The footsteps stopped outside the door, followed by the sound of the door opening.
The door was pushed open from the outside, and the warden stood in the doorway, scanning Zhou Yi with a complicated look.
Zhou Yi knew what was going on and immediately guessed why the warden had come.
Since the warden didn't speak up, Zhou Yi wasn't in a hurry. He slowly ate the half of the food the middle-aged man had given him, without saying a word.
As for the middle-aged man, he glanced sideways at the warden and showed the same disdain.
If he hadn't been framed by his political enemies and imprisoned here, the warden would never have been able to see him, given his status and family background.
Zhou Yi secretly glanced at them and could tell that the warden and the minister were from the same faction. Both of them had a fierce aura, and just by standing there, their aura was like a sharp sword.
"Zhou Yi, come out with me."
The middle-aged man looked at Zhou Yi with surprise. Was someone really looking for him?
It should just be an interrogation, right?
Zhou Yi put down his plate, stood up, and walked out.
"Someone wants to see you."
"I advise you to answer the questions honestly, think carefully before you speak, otherwise, I will let you know the price of lying."
After taking Zhou Yi to an empty interrogation room, the warden squinted and intimidated Zhou Yi with his imposing manner.
Zhou Yi nodded indifferently.
The surveillance cameras in the interrogation room had already been turned off. After Zhou Yi was strapped to the chair, the warden left.
A moment later, a woman with an elegant demeanor pushed open the door and walked in. As soon as she entered, she looked Zhou Yi up and down a few times before sitting down: "Zhou Yi, right?"
"I've looked at your criminal record. You were sent here for poisoning the wife of a high-ranking official, weren't you?"
“Your file does not state that you studied medicine or nursing in college.”
"So where did you learn your medical skills?"
The woman did not state her purpose upon arrival, but first looked at Zhou Yi's information. After seeing Zhou Yi's information, her brows furrowed deeply.
But since it was her husband's order, she decided to see Zhou Yi first.
Seeing the woman's tentative expression, Zhou Yi shifted his position slightly, and the cold sensation beneath his buttocks made his mind very clear.
"You must be a member of the minister's family."
"Today is the third day. It seems the minister has suddenly fallen seriously ill."
"What? You still have the leisure to chat with me now? Aren't you worried about his life or death?!"
Zhou Yi spoke each sentence with an affirmative tone, rather than as a question.
Zhou Yi didn't want to beat around the bush with the minister's wife; he could guess that she was there to probe his true intentions.
After hearing this, the minister's wife was startled. She stared intently at Zhou Yi, who was in his early twenties. His confident expression made him seem more and more like an unfathomable charlatan.
But considering the minister's current condition, his wife composed herself and said, "He does indeed have health problems."
How did you figure that out?
“I’ve seen the video of the interrogation that day. He didn’t have any physical contact with you. Can you really tell a person’s physical condition just by looking at them?”
Zhou Yi looked directly at the minister's wife with a frank gaze: "Indeed, I saw it with my own eyes!"
"A person's physical condition will be reflected in their face, eyes, and daily behavior."
"Although it was the first day I saw the minister, I could feel that there was a fire in the minister's body, which made him more excited and energetic than others."
"The minister is more focused than the average person, and he's been doing it for several years now!"
"This disease requires years of accumulation before it suddenly flares up, and the flare-up is when the body is at its most dangerous!"
"I think the hospital probably hasn't even seen this kind of symptom before, and they're helpless with the minister's condition."
"The minister was able to wake up because he went to the Medical Association, but even the Medical Association couldn't cure him, which is why they sent you to find me!"
Even though the minister's wife appeared calm on the surface, her suddenly widened eyes revealed her shock.
Everything matches perfectly!
The situation Zhou Yi described matched her husband's condition perfectly!
Indeed, the minister had maintained a state of high concentration and enthusiasm for several years.
I was worried that the minister would overwork himself, but he was very happy about it, thinking that the human body has potential and he had just brought out that potential.
As the minister's health remained good, his wife gradually felt relieved.
But who knew that the minister's illness would not manifest for several years?
The minister's wife leaned slightly towards Zhou Yi, about to ask him how the minister's condition should be treated.
But then he suddenly abandoned the words that were rising in his throat, and changed the subject, saying, "Zhou Yi, are you so sure that no one in the Medical Association can save the minister?"
"Aren't you overconfident in your medical skills?"
Zhou Yi glanced at the minister's wife noncommittally, his lips slightly curved, but he remained silent, using silence as his answer.
Sometimes silence is more oppressive than words.
At least, the minister's wife is starting to get restless!
The minister's wife suddenly stood up and gave Zhou Yi a deep look: "You...you'd better pray that what you're saying is true. I will relay your words to the minister as they are!"
