Because the police were in front of her, Li Lechen's mother, although she found the matter unbelievable, still told them.
Scam calls might actually be helpful.
The two police officers did indeed notice something amiss. Although the Xinhai Bridge accident wasn't under their jurisdiction, much information was shared. So, the two officers quickly retrieved the list of injured from the shared database.
The name "Li Lechen" was prominently featured on the list.
However, there is a parenthesis after his name that reads "doubt".
Is it Li Lechen?
How can this be suspected?
In ordinary cases, such seemingly unrelated clues would be easily overlooked. But now, with SW18 virus infected individuals suddenly disappearing, if this becomes serious, it concerns the lives of dozens, hundreds, or even thousands of people, forcing the two police officers to take it seriously.
It's easy to confirm whether "Li Lechen" in the Xinhai Bridge accident is the son of the woman in front of you; just look at the photos.
The photos of the injured, especially those whose identities were not initially confirmed, were entered into the system even earlier than their personal information and were quickly retrieved.
Li Lechen's mother was still bewildered, because all she saw were two policemen making various phone calls and operating their phones. Finally, a photo was placed in front of her.
"This is my son!"
As her biological mother, Zhou Lifen recognized her son immediately.
The two policemen looked at each other in bewilderment.
This photo is of a person suspected to be named Li Lechen injured in the Xinhai Bridge accident. However, there is another photo—
"This is my son too!"
Zhou Lifen confirmed it again.
The second photo shows the information registered when the patient was admitted to the hospital as an SW18 virus infected person.
Even two police officers, being outsiders, could tell at a glance that the two photos showed the same person, let alone the person's mother.
Zhou Lifen is 100% certain that the people in these two photos are her sons.
But is there a problem with this?
This is a huge problem!
The two police officers had only come to find Li Lechen's mother to inquire whether Li Lechen had contacted her in the past two days, hoping to locate Li Lechen's possible whereabouts. But now, they seemed to have discovered something unbelievable: there were two Li Lechens!
Oh no! There can't be two Li Lechens! So, there must be something wrong here!
Neither of the two police officers said this to the mother of the person involved, but that did not stop Li Lechen's mother from having all sorts of wild thoughts.
Did her son contract the SW18 virus or was he injured in the Xinhai Bridge accident?
If it's the former, when and how were you infected? Why did you disappear after being infected? If it's the latter, not only do the timelines not match, but why haven't you had any contact with anyone for so long after the injury?
Fortunately, both incidents occurred at Yunhe First People's Hospital, so Zhou Lifen rushed there without hesitation.
At this moment, with the cast removed, Li Lechen, having applied a second tube of rapid wound healing medicine, showed no signs of having been injured.
So he quietly lowered his trouser leg, first leaning on his crutch, pretending to go for a walk in the corridor, and then threw the crutch aside as soon as he stepped out the door.
Because it was a six-person ward, everyone was minding their own business, so no one noticed anything unusual when Li Lechen went out like that.
Another advantage is that all the patient gowns at Yunhe First People's Hospital are exactly the same color, whether they are hospitalized with a leg injury or infected with the SW18 virus.
At this moment, Li Lechen swaggered into the general ward.
Although the inside of his leg hadn't healed yet, and he could still feel a dull ache when walking quickly, the surface looked perfectly fine. Without the cast on, no one would mistake him for Li Lechen, the man injured in the Xinhai Bridge accident.
While Li Lechen was recklessly wandering around the general ward, the hospital also received some information from the police investigation.
Who are the injured in the Xinhai Bridge accident?
SW18 virus infected person?
They're all named Li Lechen?
Same name, same gender, same age, even the same photo?
How is that possible?
Because Li Lechen, who was in the isolation treatment area, had gone missing and had been being searched for for the past few days, the hospital immediately shifted its attention to the general treatment area.
As a result, not only the vice president in charge of the general treatment area, but even the president himself came here.
A large group of people rushed towards the general treatment area.
However, the doctors and nurses in the general treatment area were not surprised by this kind of scene, because when the Xinhai Bridge accident first happened, several groups of high-ranking city leaders came, and each time it was the same kind of scene.
However, now that the accident has been mostly resolved, this place has become a place that no one wants to go.
The hospital director and his entourage first went to the nurses' station to learn about the injured from the Xinhai Bridge accident. They immediately saw the list of injured. There was indeed someone named Li Lechen on it, although his name was followed by parentheses containing the word "doubtful."
The injured person, suspected to be Li Lechen, may still have questionable identity information, but his injury is real: a comminuted fracture of his right leg. As for amnesia, that's not included for now. Because in handling the Xinhai Bridge accident, as long as the injured person's life is not in danger, there's not much of a problem.
With this information in hand, the hospital director and his team went to the ward.
The ward is for six patients, and there are four people in the room at the moment.
"Where is the person in bed number 3?" The head nurse on this floor immediately noticed that Li Lechen's bed was empty.
"Maybe in the toilet," someone said.
Indeed, the toilet was locked from the inside, and someone was inside.
Then, the head nurse went to knock on the toilet door to ask if anyone was inside.
After that, the dean and his group waited outside for "Li Lechen" to come out, and they waited for a full half hour.
The people in this ward all have difficulty walking. It's not easy for the person inside to go to the toilet. After finally managing to get out, he discovered, wow, that the whole ward is full of important people.
He was completely bewildered.
"Are you Li Lechen?" the dean asked.
The person who came out looked completely bewildered.
He is definitely not Li Lechen.
"Where is Li Lechen?" the dean asked again.
The man still looked bewildered, because he was not Li Lechen and did not know anyone named Li Lechen. Why were people staring at him like that, as if the words "Li Lechen" were written on his forehead?
Then, the dean and his group awkwardly discovered that after waiting outside the restroom for half an hour, the person they were waiting for was not the one they were looking for.
Li Lechen has also disappeared here!
When the head nurse discovered this, she checked the surveillance footage, which showed that Li Lechen had walked out on crutches an hour earlier.
