After a two-hour drive, they finally arrived at No. 18 Yangguang Road. This is an ordinary courtyard full of flowers and plants.
Mu Nanhe took a deep breath and walked up to knock on the door.
A fifty-year-old woman with a gentle face opened the door, with a hint of doubt in her eyes: "Who are you?"
Mu Nanhe said quickly, "Excuse me, are you Nurse Li who delivered the baby at Anxian People's Hospital? We are here to ask you about some things that happened back then."
Nurse Li's expression changed slightly, and she hesitated for a moment before saying, "I am Nurse Li, but I don't remember much about what happened back then. I delivered too many babies every day."
Yang Qingyan said quickly: "Aunt Li, please think about it carefully. This matter is really important to us. We came from a long way to find out what happened that year. There were two women who gave birth that year, Aunt Xia and Aunt Zhu, and they gave birth on the same day."
Mother Xia continued, "Nurse Li, I remember that I was bleeding heavily and my condition was very critical. When my husband arrived, you were surprised that he was a soldier."
After hearing this, Nurse Li frowned, her eyes became blurry, and she fell into deep memories. She slowly walked to the stone bench in the yard, sat down slowly, and folded her legs on her knees.
"I remember that your husband was very anxious when he came that day, and he grabbed me and asked questions. The hospital was very busy that day, and the delivery room was full of medical staff and family members. A baby girl also died that day. When Ms. Xia was bleeding heavily, the whole delivery room was tense. I was busy dealing with another woman in labor at the time, and suddenly I heard someone shouting, 'Heavy bleeding, hurry up and get the emergency equipment.'" Nurse Li paused, a hint of tension in her eyes, as if she had returned to that chaotic scene.
"I rushed over to help. Various medical instruments were swaying in front of me. Everyone was racing against time to save the patient. It took a while for Ms. Xia's condition to be stabilized. Only then did I realize that Ms. Zhu and her child were no longer in the ward. Later, I heard from my colleagues that Ms. Zhu had been discharged from the hospital. The situation was too chaotic at the time, so I didn't think much about it." Nurse Li frowned slightly, with a regretful expression on her face.
"Later I found out that both children were taken away to be cleaned up when they were born. I thought everything was proceeding according to the normal process." Nurse Li raised her head and looked at Mu Nanhe and others with a hint of confusion and guilt in her eyes.
Mu Nanhe asked, "Aunt Li, are you sure that the child who was taken away later is okay?"
Nurse Li looked regretful: "I... I thought it was normal at the time. Later I heard that both children were taken away, and I didn't think much about it. Now I hear you say this, is there a problem here?"
Mu Nanhe's expression was solemn: "Aunt Li, we suspect that Zhu Li may have swapped the baby and replaced the baby girl you mentioned with me."
Nurse Li covered her mouth in shock: "How could this happen... I didn't even notice it at all."
Mu Nanhe continued, "Aunt Li, this matter may involve some important truths. We may need you to testify for us later." He took out his military ID and handed it to Nurse Li, "This is my ID. I hope you can trust us."
Nurse Li took the military ID, looked at it carefully, and handed it back to Mu Nanhe, saying seriously, "Okay, since it's such an important matter, I will do my best as long as I can help."
The doubts in everyone's hearts seemed to have a new direction, but they knew that if they wanted to completely uncover the secrets of that year, they had to find Chen Liexian and Zhu Li and others.
With a mixture of nervousness and anticipation, everyone went to Lao Chen's office. Lao Chen, now the head of the Public Security Bureau, had a deep friendship with Mu Nanhe.
After meeting Lao Chen, Mu Nanhe did not hide anything and told him the whole story in detail. After listening to him, Lao Chen frowned and looked serious.
"How could such a thing happen! Don't worry, I will investigate this matter thoroughly." Old Chen said decisively.
Lao Chen arranged for the police to act quickly and rush to Mu Village. When the police vehicle drove into the village, the tranquility of the village was instantly broken. Villagers came out of their homes one after another, some holding vegetables, and some holding farm tools in their hands, looking around curiously. Soon, the car stopped in front of Mu Xiao and Zhu's mother's house.
You know, Zhu's mother and Mu have always had a very bad reputation in the village. In daily life, they are selfish, take advantage of their neighbors, and treat their fellow villagers rudely. At this moment, when the villagers saw the car parked at their door, they were not surprised at all, but whispered and talked about it.
"Humph, I knew that something bad would happen to these two sooner or later. They do no good all day long." A middle-aged man spat and said.
"That's right. Everyone knows about the little things that happened in their family. Now that the police have come to their door, they must have committed a serious crime." An old lady nearby echoed.
Several police officers quickly got out of the car and fanned out in a skilled and professional manner, surrounding the residence of Mu Xiao and Zhu's mother. The leading police officer had a serious expression on his face, strode forward, knocked on the door, and said loudly: "Open the door! We are the police."
Mu κΏ΅ opened the door and saw the police in front of him. His face turned pale instantly and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead. However, he still pretended to be calm and asked with a trembling voice: "What are you police doing here? Did you make a mistake? We didn't do anything bad."
The police officers ignored his questioning. One of them solemnly stated his identity and purpose: "After investigation, we found that you are involved in a major case. Now please come back with us to the Public Security Bureau to cooperate with the investigation."
When Mu Xiao heard this, his face suddenly changed, and there was a flash of panic in his eyes, but he still tried to argue: "You must have made a mistake. How could we be related to any major case? Do you have any evidence?"
Zhu's mother rushed out of the house, put her hands on her hips, and shouted: "You are abusing your authority. What rights do you have to arrest us?"
The police were unmoved and decisively took Mu and Zhu's mother into the police car. At this time, the discussion in the village became louder and louder.
"I told them that this day would come. Now that they've been arrested, let's see how they can still act arrogantly."
"That's right, the police should have dealt with them long ago."
Amid the discussion of the crowd, the car slowly drove away from Mu Village. At the same time, another group of police officers successfully found Nurse Li and took her safely to the police station.
In the interrogation room, the lights were dim. Mu Xiao and Zhu's mother sat on chairs, their eyes flickering and their expressions pretending to be calm. When questioned by the police, they flatly denied the child swap.
