Chapter 17: Death of a Doctor (I)
Xia Beibei's injuries were not serious. She did not elaborate on what happened after the kidnapping. She simply said a few perfunctory words and sent the group of people away. As for why she was covered in blood when she was found, it was because she was splashed with paint.
Gao Bochuan answered a phone call and left with a cold face. Lin Qi was pacing around in front of the bed, taking pictures of her with her cell phone with a gloating look on her face. Xia Beibei was depressed and annoyed with her, so she asked Yang Lin to pull her out.
After driving everyone out, Xia Beibei couldn't stay in the ward anymore, so she went downstairs for a walk and breathed some fresh air.
It was a rare cloudy day, and the weather was not so dull. Xia Beibei found a cool place and was about to sit down when someone suddenly grabbed her wrist. After a violent spin, she fell into someone's arms.
"Depend on!"
Bang!
The tip of her nose was hurt, and Xia Beibei was about to start cursing when there was a sudden loud noise behind her. She was so scared that she trembled all over. She looked up and saw Zhou Xun's gloomy and nervous face.
"Ah! Someone's dead!"
Just as she relaxed her body and leaned into Zhou Xun's arms, there was a burst of intense screams all around. Zhou Xun held her waist and took two steps back. Xia Beibei quickly turned her head to look behind her.
“Don’t look!”
Zhou Xun covered her eyes with his hands at the first moment. Xia Beibei pulled him down directly, glanced at the man on the ground, watched the pool of red blood under him slowly expand, and then looked up towards the top floor.
suicide?
Or... is it the Sun gang again?
At 9:35 in the morning, police officers from the police station arrived. In order to protect the scene, Xia Beibei did not let them move the body until the criminal police team arrived.
Gao Bochuan led everyone to investigate the scene. After finishing, he was about to take Yang Lin and the others to the rooftop. He turned around and saw Xia Beibei leaning on Zhou Xun's arms. He frowned slightly, took off his gloves and threw them to Shen Yunfei, then strode towards her.
"Who told you to get out of bed?"
His eyes were cold, his tone was deep, eerie and chilling. Xia Beibei shivered and subconsciously hid in Zhou Xun's arms. Zhou Xun raised his eyebrows and looked at Gao Bochuan, with displeasure on his handsome face.
"It's none of your business. Go investigate your case."
Yang Lin shrank his neck, noticing that the atmosphere around him suddenly became solemn. He stood behind Gao Bochuan and winked at Xia Beibei, and then Xia Beibei kicked Zhou Xun.
"How can you talk to my boss? The police are investigating a case. Stand aside, move aside, move quickly, and stand outside the cordon."
After saying that, without paying attention to Zhou Xun's face which turned as black as coal in an instant, she waved to Yang Lin. Yang Lin understood and ran over to help her. Xia Beibei put her arm on his shoulder and hopped two steps towards Gao Bochuan.
"Boss, although I was injured on duty, I can still continue to work."
Xia Beibei looked impartial and just as she spoke, she lifted her injured arms and legs. Gao Bochuan pinched his brow helplessly and was about to speak when Lin Qi ran over.
"Boss, I've found out that the deceased is Zhao Yongde, a doctor at this hospital, 39 years old. He had just finished an operation two hours ago. After the operation, someone saw him answer a phone call and then walk up the stairs to the rooftop. As for how he fell, there are no witnesses yet."
Medical examiner Gu Ding came over and said, "Preliminary conclusion is that the deceased died of head and brain injury caused by falling from a high altitude. The time of death was within two hours. No other injuries were found on the body. There was skin flakes between the fingernails. The specific results will have to wait for the DNA identification report."
After saying that, he walked over to Xia Beibei, pinched her face, and smiled incredibly.
"Tsk tsk tsk, Beibei, you are great. You were at the forefront before, and now you are on duty despite being ill. Are you going to force Captain Gao to ask for credit for you?"
After Gu Ding finished speaking, there was a burst of laughter all around. Xia Beibei glanced at them coldly, and after everyone fell silent, she stepped hard on Gu Ding.
"Old Ding, if you don't speak, no one will think you are dumb, but why are you so annoying?"
Didn't you see that her boss's face had turned dark? She had discovered that every time Gao Bochuan heard the words "charge into battle", he would glare at her fiercely. Xia Beibei couldn't figure out his temper, so she tried not to provoke him.
After all, Chen Yu's matter was her own decision. If Gao Bochuan took the opportunity to deduct her bonus or punish her to write a lot of reports, it would be better for him to scold her.
Gao Bochuan glanced at her without saying anything. He asked Lin Qi to send her back to the ward, and then took Yang Lin, Shen Yunfei and others to the rooftop.
In the ward, Lin Qi looked at Zhou Xun with shining eyes. Zhou Xun didn't look at her. He opened his mobile phone, handed it to Xia Beibei, and explained diligently.
"Baby, you can't blame me for this. I received your text message when I was stuck in traffic. You said you had something urgent to do and asked me to go home. I was mad at you. I called you dozens of times but you didn't answer. You just sent me away with a text message. If I hadn't seen the news, I wouldn't have known that you were in trouble. I was so scared."
Zhou Xun looked at her with resentment. Xia Beibei took the phone and looked at the text message. It was indeed sent from her phone number. She thought that it should be sent by Chen Yu using her phone. However, Chen Yu was free and had time to reply to Zhou Xun's text message.
But... News!
Alas, she has now become a celebrity in Yun City. I don’t know what those people from Sun are thinking. It would be better for them to stab her to death with a knife.
The most hateful thing is that other reporter who used such an ugly photo and enlarged it ten times to put it on the headlines, fearing that others would not know how badly she was beaten.
The article was also full of long-winded fabrications, saying that she was retaliated by her enemies, that she was a mistress, that she was responsible for a murder, etc. Later, they found out from somewhere that she was a police officer, and said that the police were incompetent. Anyway, it was very unpleasant to hear. However, there were a few media outlets that spoke objectively.
The photo was so tragic that when her aunt came, she was crying. She had to finally coax herself into submission before letting her uncle take her away.
Fortunately, Lin Qi and the others were not around at the time, otherwise who knows what weird things would have happened in the bureau.
Xia Beibei thought of the necklace she had thrown on the ground before and asked Lin Qi casually. Lin Qi thought for a while before saying:
"The box seems to have been taken away by Chu Yang. When you disappeared, everyone was so anxious that they didn't pay attention to you."
Just as Xia Beibei was about to speak, Zhou Xun asked, "Who is Chu Yang? Why haven't I heard of such a person in the criminal police team?"
Lin Qi flirted at him: "Chu Yang, he's a handsome guy, the owner of the new noodle shop next to the police station. He's so handsome, Bei Bei even coveted his beauty."
Zhou Xun stood up from the stool, flipped his hair elegantly, then leaned over and kissed Xia Beibei on the forehead, his voice sultry and sexy.
"Baby, take good care of yourself. I'll go get the gift back and hand it over to my mom, your mother-in-law."
Xia Beibei glared at him speechlessly. Zhou Xun squinted his peach blossom eyes and blew her a kiss. Then he turned and left, taking out a new phone from his pocket and giving it to her before leaving.
Xia Beibei just let him be and didn't bother to pay attention to him. This guy was always talking nonsense and had a lot of romantic debts. If he wasn't her cousin, she would have to teach him a lesson.
Xia Beibei asked Lin Qi to go out and help, and she sat cross-legged on the hospital bed, eating melon seeds out of boredom. While eating, she suddenly remembered something, picked up the fruit basket on the bed and went out.
Everyone outside was talking about the doctor jumping off the building. Xia Beibei listened for a while but didn't get any useful information.
I walked around the doors of each ward and stopped at a double room at the end of the corridor. The people inside were talking about something mysteriously. Everyone's expression was very colorful. The key point was that there was a nurse inside.
