"Director Qin, what are you doing?" Xue Weimin, who was standing at the front, had a bad feeling.
Director Qin, who was leading the team personally today, didn't answer him. Instead, he stepped forward and looked Xue Hailin in the eye. "Deputy Mayor Xue, you're back just in time. The fire at the Xue family's house today burned a lot of things. Please cooperate with our investigation."
"What is that?" Xue Hailin's heart trembled.
Director Qin glanced at him deeply and pointed at the room still emitting smoke. "Come and see for yourself."
Xue Hailin followed with weak legs. When he saw that the iron boxes containing gold bars hidden in the wall were exposed, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his head, his eyes bulged, and he fell straight forward.
"dad!"
"Boss!"
"Uncle!"
"Hai Lin!"
A series of screams rang in his ears, but Xue Hailin could not hear them and fainted on the spot.
Xue Weimin lifted him up and straightened his body. Seeing that blood was coming out of his eyes, nose, and mouth, his face changed drastically. "Hurry, hurry to the hospital, hurry!"
Because Xue Hailin suddenly fell ill and fainted, Director Qin had to send a car to take him to the hospital for emergency treatment. He personally brought people to keep an eye on him, while the Xue family arranged another team to collect evidence of corruption here.
He was sent to the hospital in a timely manner and there was no delay on the way. The municipal hospital also immediately arranged for emergency treatment.
However, the doctor quickly came out to inform: "Dear family members, Deputy Mayor Xue's condition is very serious. You must be mentally prepared."
"What do you mean?" Old Mrs. Xue's heart trembled.
"The initial diagnosis is that he suffered a sudden brain stroke, and his eye sockets and lips were black, which are symptoms of poisoning."
"What? Poisoning? Stroke?" The Xue family was collectively shocked.
The doctor nodded and said no more, "We will do our best to save him, but your family should prepare for the worst."
After saying that, he turned and went into the emergency room.
Xue Hailin suddenly fell ill and the Xue family was in chaos. At this time, they no longer cared about the consequences of the fire. The whole family was anxiously trying to find a way to save him.
Gong Linglong was busy working in the morning and did not receive the latest news until lunchtime. She immediately sneaked into the space and told the news to her mother.
Bai Shuixian received the news, and her calm eyes wavered. "Dad, Mom, Big Brother, Second Brother, please watch carefully from Heaven. We will make every member of the Xue family lose their reputation and plunge them into the abyss. We will also send Xue Haihui to the underworld to apologize in the near future."
Bai Shuixian did not stay in the space in the afternoon. Although she was very confident about the poison she prepared, she wanted to go to the hospital to get first-hand information.
After two hours of emergency rescue, Xue Hailin's life was saved, but the situation was not optimistic.
When the doctor pushed the door open, his face solemnly stated, "His life is saved, but the brain nerves are severely damaged. Even if he wakes up, he will be paralyzed in bed for the rest of his life. He may also suffer from mental impairment and become demented."
Such a result was like a bomb dropping on the Xue family's hearts, frightening them all to death.
Old Lady Xue's legs went limp, and she slumped to the ground, as if she had lost her soul. "How, how could this happen? He was just fine, just now, riding his bike and carrying me very fast. How could this happen?"
"We just did a blood test. Deputy Mayor Xue has been poisoned for a long time, at least more than two months. The damage to his brain nerves is caused by the poison," the doctor told them.
Xue Weimin was in charge of the Xue family's subsequent affairs. They not only had to deal with the investigation of the Public Security Bureau, but also had to call the police to investigate the poisoning of Xue Hailin.
With the assistance of the hospital, the Public Security Bureau quickly discovered that the tea that Xue Hailin often drank in his office was contaminated with poison. However, the poison was added secretly and over a long period of time, so it was not easy to find out who had done it.
Although Xue Hailin was poisoned and unconscious, the Xue family had to cooperate with the investigation into the Xue family's secret hoarding of gold. Even Peng Yuni, who had just completed the divorce procedures, was taken away for investigation.
As for the sudden fire in the house, the Xue family unanimously believed that it was Wen Qian who started it.
Only Xue Sisi remained silent. She vaguely guessed that the fire was related to her, perhaps caused by her kick, but she did not say it, letting Wen Qian take the blame.
Bai Shuixian watched the excitement all afternoon and went to the Civil Affairs Department to wait for her daughter to get off work at nearly five o'clock. She was in a particularly good mood today. She had just bought a newly-released watermelon at a state-owned store, brought it over, cut it up, and shared it with everyone.
On the way back, Bai Shuixian whispered to her daughter, "The old man of the Xue family called Xue Haihui and asked him to invite a skilled doctor from Kyoto to come to Seoul."
"Will he come?"
Gong Linglong guessed that he would come. Both of his brothers had encountered trouble. If he didn't come to visit, he would definitely be pointed at as a spineless person and called cold-blooded and heartless.
Bai Shuixian was also unsure. "The old man from the Xue family only told him to call a doctor over the phone, not to come over. He also told him about the fire at Xue Hailin's house that had found gold."
On the other hand, Peng Yuni originally wanted to live in Kyoto with her children, but the fire in the Xue family completely disrupted her plans.
Although she had completed the divorce procedures with Xue Hailin in the morning, the gold hidden by the Xue family was exposed, and she had to go again to cooperate with the investigation.
Not only was she taken away, but Xue Weiqi and Xue Sisi, who lived at home, were also taken away, leaving only Xue Weimin outside to take care of housework.
Two days later, the brain expert invited by Xue Haihui in Kyoto came to Seoul. Xue Hailin had woken up at this time, but he was unable to speak and most of his body was paralyzed and unable to move.
Current medical conditions are limited. Even the authoritative brain expert invited by Xue Haihui could not guarantee his future recovery after diagnosing him, but he did prescribe some good medicine for his conditioning.
As for the poison he was poisoned with, it damaged his nerves, and experts clearly stated that there was no cure.
One of his two sons was arrested and the other became paralyzed; one of his two daughters-in-law was arrested and the other divorced.
The ones who suffered the most were the two old men of the Xue family. They were still in high spirits when they came from Kyoto, but in just a few days, they both looked much older and haggard, with a lot more white hair on their temples.
The grandson was out on business, and the two old men were taking care of their son in the hospital, sighing all day long.
"Dad, Mom."
Xue Haihong and his wife had been coming to the hospital frequently these days. She cooked and delivered all three meals a day. She would enter the ward carrying a thermos bucket and ask, "Is Big Brother feeling better today?"
"Same old thing."
Old Mrs. Xue felt heartbroken when she saw her son, whose mouth and eyes were crooked due to a stroke. Her face was haggard. "Has Yuan Hong come back?"
"I'm back. I just got spanked by his dad. I'll come visit my big brother later."
Accidents happened one after another at home, but Xue Haihong's son Wang Yuanhong was completely unaware of it. He had gone to the south with his friends half a month ago and only rushed back after receiving the news the day before yesterday.
