Chapter 200 Split-Brain Case: Car Accident
After leaving the interrogation room, Fang Rui discussed the case with Mu Mian.
Fang Rui said, "Could it be that the murderer went to great lengths to frame Dean Liu just to let us know that Dean Liu was looking for someone to illegally surrogate him?"
Mu Mian guessed, "Could he be using this child for some kind of experiment? Ordinary pregnant women don't need to undergo prenatal checkups so frequently."
Fang Rui asked someone to take Wang Yuqing for a prenatal checkup to see if there was anything wrong with the fetus in her belly. By the way, a paternity test was done to see if the child was Dean Liu's.
At Fang Rui's urging, the hospital expedited the results.
The prenatal checkup results showed that the child was healthy, and the Down syndrome screening results showed that the child did not have Down syndrome.
But the results of the paternity test showed that the child was not Dean Liu's, and the fetus had no blood relationship with Dean Liu.
Fang Rui decided to invite Dean Liu back and ask him what was going on.
——Since
the night before yesterday, Typhoon "Little Raccoon" landed in Jiangzhou City, and Jiangzhou began to rain heavily. The whole city was gray and the ground was full of water.
Xiao Zhang and Xiao Dong waited for Dean Liu for two days and one night, but as soon as Dean Liu came out of the police station, he returned to the hospital to work, and then he went back and forth between home and the hospital.
Xiao Zhang couldn't help but admire Dean Liu's professionalism.
Xiao Zhang complained: "You said he is a workaholic, how could he have time to cheat?"
Xiao Dong said: "What's the big deal, ability and character are not linked. Many people with strong abilities have poor personal ethics. We need to verify it."
"Yes, that makes sense."
Xiao Dong gossiped: "Zhang Qiang, when are you getting married? I'm still waiting to drink your wedding wine."
"It's coming soon, probably at the end of the year. Then you can come and be my best man. I must have 17 or 18 best men to make the wedding lively."
"You just love to make a fuss."
"This is the only wedding in your life, so it must be lively."
"Don't worry, we promise to make it lively for you. Xiao Wang is better at making fun than you, but he has been listless recently and doesn't like to make a fuss anymore. He has matured a lot. I guess he was hurt!"
"Yeah, it's heartbreaking to see Xiao Wang like this. Without him nagging in my ear, I feel the world is quiet."
Xiao Wang was listless for a while after Chen Shu's death, but he quickly recovered and put all his energy into work. But now he doesn't like chatting with people very much, and he is no longer humorous.
Xiao Dong looked out the car window, "The rain seems to have lightened a bit, you keep an eye on it first, I'll go buy two lunch boxes and come back. It will be the rush hour soon, it will be very crowded."
"Go ahead, I'll call you if anything happens. By the way, bring me a bottle of water."
"Okay."
-
Fang Rui called Xiao Zhang and asked him to bring Dean Liu back for questioning. But Xiao Zhang's phone was not connected.
Fang Rui called Xiao Zhang's partner Xiao Dong. Fortunately, the call was quickly connected.
"Captain Fang, what's wrong?"
"Why didn't Xiao Zhang answer the phone?"
"I'm buying a lunch box now. Xiao Zhang is waiting at the entrance of the hospital. I guess his phone is on silent, so he didn't hear the call. I'll get back to the car right away. Do you have anything to tell him?"
The raindrops hit the road, making a crackling noise that made people irritated.
"You bring Liu Qianmin back. We have found new clues and we have something to ask him."
"Okay, we'll bring him back right away."
Fang Rui and Mu Mian were still discussing the case when Xiao Zhang called, "Boss, the murderer is very likely..."
Mu Mian also came over to answer the phone, but Xiao Zhang's voice stopped abruptly and they heard a loud "bang".
"Xiao Zhang, what happened over there?" Fang Rui asked anxiously.
"Officer Xiao Zhang, please answer the call."
Beep, beep, the phone was hung up.
Mu Mian said, "It sounded like a car crash just now..."
They all had a bad feeling.
Fang Rui called Xiao Dong again, and the call was quickly connected.
Fang Rui and Mu Mian breathed a sigh of relief. Xiao Dong could answer the phone, which proved that Xiao Zhang should be fine.
Fang Rui asked, "What happened over there? Why did Xiao Zhang hang up on me just now?"
"Captain Fang, Xiao Zhang just sent me a message saying that Liu Qiangmin suddenly drove away from the hospital. He was afraid of losing him, so he drove after him first."
"Where is he now?"
"I don't know. I've taken a taxi and am about to go find Xiao Zhang."
The feeling of uneasiness became stronger. The first feeling told Fang Rui that Xiao Zhang might have been in an accident. He kept calling Xiao Zhang, but the cold female voice was still heard from the other end.
"The call you made is temporarily unanswered, please call back later..."
Fang Rui contacted his friend in the traffic police team, who told him that a major traffic accident had occurred near the Second Affiliated Hospital of Jiangzhou University, and two drivers were seriously injured.
He sent photos of the accident to Fang Rui.
Fang Rui was stunned when he saw the familiar car. This car was the one driven by Xiao Zhang. The other car that was hit beyond recognition was Dean Liu's car.
They both suffered a car accident at the same time.
Fang Rui and Mu Mian were about to tell Chen Xue the news when Chen Xue's cell phone rang.
"Hello, are you Zhang Qiang's girlfriend?"
"Yes."
"Zhang Qiang was in a car accident and is being treated at the First Affiliated Hospital of the city. Please come as soon as possible."
These words were like magic, petrifying Chen Xue. She was completely stunned and lost the ability to think and answer questions.
"Can you hear me?"
"Ma'am, are you listening?"
Seeing that no one responded, the man said to the person next to him, "No one is answering this number, call the next one."
Mu Mian said to the phone: "We got it, we'll be there right away."
"Okay, as soon as possible!"
"Chen Xue, let's go to the hospital quickly." Mu Mian's eyes were also red, she comforted, "Officer Xiao Zhang should have just had a minor car accident. It has been raining these two days, and the road conditions are bad. It is normal to have a car accident."
Chen Xue did not speak.
Mu Mian could not understand Chen Xue's expression, or Chen Xue had no expression at all, but Mu Mian could feel that Chen Xue was now overwhelmed by grief, and she was so sad that she seemed to be suffocated.
Mu Mian thought for a moment, then reached out and hugged Chen Xue tightly, "Chen Xue, Officer Xiao Zhang needs you now. You can't lose your mind."
Chen Xue was like a drowning person who suddenly grabbed a straw, "Mianmian, tell me, Zhang Qiang will not die."
"The doctor didn't say Officer Xiao Zhang's condition is critical. He will be fine." Mu Mian choked and said, "He should be like last time, just broke his foot."
"Mianmian, I never thought he would die."
Mu Mian said softly, "Everyone will die. But Officer Xiao Zhang will definitely not die so soon. Officer Xiao Zhang is a Libra, and people born under the Libra sign will have good luck recently."
"Mianmian, zodiac signs are all lies. But you are a genius, I believe you, you say he won't die, and he won't die."
