Chapter 62: Oranges grown in Huaibei are bitter oranges
Lu Rang did not answer Huo Annan's words.
All his thoughts were on his phone.
Meng Beizhi hasn't contacted him yet.
Lu Rang narrowed his eyes.
I feel a little unhappy.
Is Meng Beizhi so unwilling to have anything to do with him?
You don’t even care about your own grandmother?
-
Fu Wangye drove Meng Beizhi directly to an old-fashioned cake shop in the old town.
Meng Beizhi said nothing, got out of the car and rushed into the store, asking if his grandmother had been there.
The owner is a middle-aged woman.
She looked at Meng Beizhi and said with a smile, "You are talking about your grandmother, right? She has never been here, and you haven't been here for a long time."
"I remember that you loved eating our cakes the most. Your grandma would always bring you to buy them. One time, you even got cavities because you ate too much cake, and the grandma refused to buy you any more. You cried until your eyes turned red—"
This cake shop was a place Meng Beizhi often visited when he was a child.
The owner was very impressed with her.
"Is the old lady in good health?"
Meng Beizhi's voice was hoarse: "...I'm too busy with work to come over, and grandma is in good health."
"It's okay. The last time I saw her was several years ago. She said she came to give you a cake, the orange cake."
"Oh, it just so happens that I have one orange cake left today. I'll give it to you. After all, you are one of my old customers."
The owner packed the cake neatly and stuffed it into Meng Beizhi's hands.
"When you were little, I said I had never seen a child as beautiful as you. Now you are even more beautiful—"
Meng Beizhi walked out of the cake shop.
He stumbled and almost fell to the ground.
Fortunately, Fu Wangye caught her and nothing happened.
"Fu Wangye."
Meng Beizhi unconsciously grabbed his sleeve and said with difficulty: "Grandma is not here."
Fu Wangye held Meng Beizhi firmly with both hands. He said in a deep voice, "I've asked someone to help find him."
"Do you know why I like orange cake?" Meng Beizhi looked at him with empty eyes.
"……Why?"
"Because grandma said my name is not good. Oranges grown in the south of the Huai River are oranges, while oranges grown in the north of the Huai River are trifoliate oranges."
"The bitter orange is too bitter."
Meng Beizhi was shaking uncontrollably.
She closed her eyes tightly, not wanting to let the tears fall.
"That's why my grandma likes to buy me oranges. She always says that if I eat more sweet things, I won't feel bitter in the future—"
But grandma, you are lying.
Meng Beizhi took a bite of the orange cake in his hand.
It's no different from what I ate as a child.
She ate so much orange cake that was all sweet.
The only one not bought by grandma.
But it is bitter.
-
It was almost dawn, but I still couldn't find my grandmother.
When they returned to the sanatorium, there was a man standing at Ruan Qing's door.
Secretary Lin shook his head slightly at Fu Wangye.
"We've checked the surveillance footage, and we didn't see which door the old lady left from—"
"But the entire nursing home has been searched, and there's still no one there."
Meng Beizhi's pupils suddenly contracted.
She subconsciously grasped the hem of her clothes tightly with her palm.
They also watched the surveillance footage before leaving the nursing home.
Just as Secretary Lin said, there is nothing suspicious.
Even the Meng family went back, but still no one was there.
And now she has reached a short-term cooperative relationship with Meng Wencheng——
It is even more impossible for Meng Wencheng to touch his grandmother at this time.
She took a deep breath.
Force your mind not to be controlled by emotions and try to analyze the problem.
There was a moment of silence.
She pushed open the door of Ruan Qing's ward and walked in.
Ruan Qing was still lying on the bed with a peaceful expression.
Meng Beizhi had been holding back her tears all night, and finally she cried when the door closed.
Her voice choked: "Mom...what should I do..."
outside the house.
Fu Wangye's expression immediately darkened after Meng Beizhi entered.
He asked, "You can't find anything?"
Secretary Lin also had a serious expression.
The disappearance of Meng Beizhi's grandmother is not just a matter that concerns her.
It is also related to Haitian.
Can a living person disappear in a nursing home with surveillance cameras everywhere?
The only explanation is.
There was a problem with the staff within the nursing home.
Secretary Lin said, "I will continue to have people investigate. It's impossible that there will be no evidence at all."
Fu Wangye hummed, and then asked, "How's the investigation going on with the thing I asked you about last time?"
Before.
He asked Secretary Lin to check on Ruan Qing's matter once.
Secretary Lin said, "All the tests were in compliance, and before that, apart from Miss Meng and Lu Rang, only the doctor and the nurse had entered the ward."
"Doctors and nurses—"
Fu Wangye glanced at the closed ward door.
He knew that Meng Beizhi definitely didn't want to disturb her now.
He simply instructed Secretary Lin again: "You stay here, I'm going to the doctor's office."
If no one had ever visited Ruan Qing and the old lady—
The biggest suspects are indeed the doctors and nurses who have the most contact with them.
Besides, how come Ruan Qing and the old lady both had problems at the same time?
This is not normal.
The doctor's office is just around the corner.
As soon as Fu Wangye turned around, he met a doctor wearing a mask walking hurriedly towards him.
Even the moment he saw Fu Wangye, he seemed frightened.
This tiny detail was caught by Fu Wangye.
He came from the army.
Very sharp.
Subconsciously blocking the doctor's way.
The doctor suddenly raised his face, his voice muffled because he was wearing a mask: "What are you doing?"
Fu Wangye slowly put his hand down.
"Nothing, I just want to ask the doctor something."
The man said impatiently: "The shift is about to change. If you have anything, ask the next doctor. I am not feeling well now and need to go back to rest."
"How would the next doctor know that a patient went missing tonight?"
Fu Wangye said this while paying attention to his expression.
As expected.
When the doctor heard the words "patient missing", his breathing became noticeably faster.
His eyes also opened wider.
These unconscious behaviors cannot deceive people.
Fu Wangye's eyes fell on the badge in front of him.
A moment later.
He made way.
After the doctor left——
Fu Wangye turned around and went back to Ruan Qing's ward.
He said in a cold voice, "Luo Ping, there's something wrong with this doctor. Go check it out."
-
Meng Beizhi stayed in the ward for two hours before coming out.
As soon as I came out, I saw Fu Wangye guarding outside the door.
Only then did she realize that Fu Wangye must have been here with her all the time.
The fatigue on her face was unstoppable.
His voice was hoarse: "Go back and have some rest."
Fu Wangye looked at her quietly with deep eyes and said firmly, "I will accompany you.
Meng Beizhi opened his mouth and was about to refuse.
Then I heard the sound of high heels stepping on the ground.
It’s Meng Nanyu and Su Xiu.
Meng Nanyu dressed up specially today.
Seeing Meng Beizhi's eyes looking at the skirt she was wearing.
The tail of Meng Nanyou's eyebrows is more obviously raised——
This is what she dressed up specially for meeting Prince Haitian today.
