So when Lin Heqing called to inquire about the test results of Li Lechen's blood sample sent over two days ago, the center director really couldn't answer.
But he instinctively felt that something was amiss.
So the tone was set over the phone: "Special circumstances were discovered during the testing process, and further testing is currently underway."
"What special circumstances?"
Lin Heqing was overjoyed because he only paid attention to this sentence.
The director naturally couldn't answer what the special circumstances were. He only knew that the vice president personally called to inquire about the results of Li Lechen's blood sample test, which meant there was definitely a problem.
However, he couldn't immediately answer whether the blood sample tested positive for the SW18 virus; that's an objective fact that can't be faked. But since he could say something like "there are special circumstances," further testing would naturally reveal something unusual.
After all, there are so many things that can be tested through blood tests. Simple tests include blood type and routine blood count, while more complex tests can detect tumor markers and even genetic material.
In short, a thorough examination of a person's blood can reveal a great deal of information.
The director immediately decided that he would examine Li Lechen's blood sample very carefully so that he could justify his earlier statement about "special circumstances".
After hanging up the phone, Lin Heqing actually pinned some of his hopes on the blood testing center. Then he continued to analyze the data at hand.
Apart from the three CT reports which are already clear, and the two blood samples which are still under further testing due to special circumstances, the remaining data mainly consists of video footage and basic registration information.
Lin Heqing was not the first person to question these video materials, but he was definitely the first to put all the video materials together and carefully examine them.
There aren't many people like Lin Heqing who are so stubborn and persistent in their pursuit of perfection. After all, who has the time to meticulously analyze video footage frame by frame, even if it takes several days to watch continuously?
But Lin and Qing actually did it.
He divided the videos into three categories: the first category was from the general inpatient ward, the second category was naturally from the isolation treatment ward, and the third category was other video materials about Li Lechen that he collected sporadically.
Lin Heqing had been reviewing the surveillance footage from the moment Li Lechen entered the isolation treatment area until he disappeared. Later, he also reviewed other surveillance footage from various areas of the hospital, which led him to accidentally discover the target in the administration building.
Now I'm going to dig out the old video footage again.
This time, the first and second types of video data are compared directly, and the comparison is magnified.
This comparison did indeed make Lin Heqing notice something unusual.
The color of the hospital gown worn by Li Lechen in the isolation treatment room was different from the color worn by the Li Lechen who last appeared in the administration building.
The hospital gowns were all the same, but because of their age, the new ones looked much brighter in color, while the old ones appeared duller. Clearly, Li Lechen was wearing a fairly new hospital gown in the isolation treatment room, even with creases, but the one he wore in the administration building was very old, so old that the stitching on the trousers was showing.
trouser legs...
If Lin Heqing hadn't noticed the stitching on the trouser hem, she wouldn't have paid much attention to this detail. After all, the two videos weren't from the same time period, but rather nearly two days apart. Two days is a considerable gap, making it possible that the patient's gown was changed.
But Lin Heqing's eyes suddenly lit up. He had noticed not only the stitches on the trouser hem, but also the scars on the ankle!
That's right! When Li Lechen appeared at the administration building, he was not only wearing an old hospital gown, but he also had scars on his ankles!
enlarge.
Zoom in again.
Sure enough, below the already short and slightly worn trousers with exposed stitches, there was a noticeable abrasion on the back of the ankle.
This isn't a bruise from a regular impact; it's a scratch from an injury, and it's been treated. Otherwise, it wouldn't be so noticeable.
Lin Heqing quickly pulled up the video of Li Lechen from the isolation treatment area, specifically choosing the part where her ankles were clearly visible.
I'm so grateful that the hospital gowns are generally too loose and too short, especially when getting in and out of bed, the ankle area is clearly exposed.
No.
There were no marks.
Now the problem arises.
If the Li Lechen in the isolation treatment area is the same Li Lechen who later appeared in the administration building, then where did the injury on his ankle come from?
Although there was a two-day period of disappearance in between, where was this injury treated?
Lin Heqing had already concretized that bold hypothesis in his mind.
He hypothesized that there really were two Li Lechens who appeared at Yunhe First People's Hospital at the same time, one infected with the SW18 virus and the other injured in the Xinhai Bridge accident.
Then, Li Lechen, who was injured in the Xinhai Bridge accident, took advantage of the disappearance of the Li Lechen who was infected with the SW18 virus and successfully replaced him. Because the Li Lechen who was injured in the Xinhai Bridge accident was not infected with the SW18 virus, he was discharged from the hospital smoothly.
It has to be said that through this relentless struggle, Lin Heqing has come very close to the truth.
Indeed, if Zhou Mi hadn't been infected with the SW18 virus, if F001 hadn't infected her in such an exaggerated way in front of everyone, and if there hadn't been the Xinhai Bridge accident, and Li Lechen had just slept soundly somewhere for three days, then this truth might never have been discovered.
After all, Li Lechen isn't a celebrity, and no one would really stick to such a huge amount of videos like Lin Heqing did.
Having come to believe his own guess, Lin Heqing investigated further in this direction.
Then, he actually discovered more problems in other video materials.
For example, on the day Li Lechen donated bone marrow to Gu Xiaoman, Zhou Mi actually said that she had spent an afternoon with Li Lechen, and because of this, she was quarantined for several days.
In other words, there were two Li Lechens at that time.
However, based on Li Lechen's personal information, it's impossible for him to have a twin brother. So, where did the second Li Lechen come from?
So now the problem is, finding the answer is proving difficult.
Obviously, Li Lechen himself would never admit to this. Just considering that he only suffered a leg injury in the Xinhai Bridge accident, yet could still lie about amnesia, it's clear he was covering for another Li Lechen. It was obvious that a replacement was arranged afterward.
Moreover, Li Lechen, who was previously infected with the SW18 virus, has truly disappeared.
At this moment, Li Lechen was naturally unaware that the truth about his greatest fear—being arrested and dissected for research by the relevant authorities—had already been largely exposed. He was still working hard to avert a terrifying virus that could kill over 80 million people.
Moreover, this effort is already very close to achieving the established goal.
