    Chapter 142 Edmund Dantes (thirteen)

    Second Hospital, half an hour ago—

    Tao Ran's body was covered with splints and bandages, and he was fastened to the bed with all sides upside down. A pinch of unruly hair on top of his head was still sticking up, making his image a bit funny. When Xiao Haiyang went to see him, the ward was very lively, Yang Zhengfeng's youngest daughters Yang Xin and Chang Ning were both there.

    Tao Ran had been in the hospital for a few days, and he was barely able to speak, but he stuttered a little. At first, his attending doctor was very nervous, suspecting that his symptoms were hurting his head, and he took him out for a round of examinations. Only then did realize that the fault was not in the head, but in the girl. If Chang Ning didn't come, he would speak quite neatly.

    With Chang Ning around, Lian Xiao Haiyang somehow felt that it was not appropriate to stay here for a long time. After a few minutes of sitting, he was sure that Tao Ran would not be in any danger, and left in tandem with Yang Xin.

    "Big Brother Xiao." Yang Xin stopped him. Because of Lao Yang, Yang Xin knew everyone in uniform and called him brother when they met.

    Xiao Haiyang agreed with some discomfort.

    Yang Xin shook her phone: "I ordered a few boxes of fruits and drinks, and they were delivered to the door of the hospital. Can you help me move them? To the nurse station, the nurses on Brother Tao's side and my mother's side have to deliver."

    Although Xiao Haiyang was a bit inattentive and did not distinguish between grains, he couldn't refuse the little girl's request, so he silently followed Yang Xin as a porter.

    Drinks and fruits are heavy items. A few steps from the hospital gate to the inpatient department, Xiao Haiyang felt that his little muscles were about to be squeezed and exploded. He sighed with blue veins on his neck. In the cold winter and twelfth lunar day, I was sweating all over.

    Seeing his virtue, Yang Xin felt really sorry, and took the initiative to help him lighten a bit of weight: "Let's take a short cut - sigh, Brother Xiao, how can you catch bad guys like this?"

    Xiao Haiyang had no time to answer, too tired to breathe.

    Yang Xin took Xiao Haiyang around the inpatient department with ease, and heard him almost gasping for a mushroom cloud in the middle of the road, so he found a place out of the way and motioned Xiao Haiyang to put his things down and take a break: "Keep moving forward, pass by. After going through that door, turn another corner and you'll arrive. Go to my mother's floor, and they say it's 'sent from Fu Jiahui's family', and when they go to Big Brother Tao's floor, they say 'It was sent by Tao Ran's family'. Which patient sent something? I know it in my heart, and I will be more dedicated to taking care of it in the future - this is what my elders taught me when my mother was just hospitalized."

    This girl is only in her early twenties, her father has passed away, and she only lives with a mother. Until now, there are not many people who depend on each other for life.

    While Yang Xin went to school, he had to go to the hospital at the same time. He learned to cover everything. Xiao Haiyang had heard of her father Yang Zhengfeng. He would look at her, and he felt a little uncomfortable. , is a hero."

    "Ying is not a hero, he doesn't know it himself anyway," Yang Xin bowed her head, then smiled a little bitterly, "When I think about it, heroes and villains are sometimes the same fate, they are both dead, and dead are a pile of rotten bones. , in comparison, when the bad guys are lawless when they are alive, they can be a little more happy."

    Xiao Haiyang didn't know how to talk to each other, but she was moved by her few words, and the two fell silent for a while in embarrassment.

    There is a stairwell behind the two of them, but not many people usually use them, and they are all locked. Xiao Haiyang moved his stiff wrists while staring at the glass on the stairwell door in a daze. Suddenly, he saw a man in a nurse's uniform hurried past.

    The stairwell on this floor was locked, Xiao Haiyang didn't expect that there were still people going upstairs from here, so he couldn't help but glanced at it - this time, he noticed that the nurse was actually a man taller than himself. Whether it's a nurse or a care worker, men are rare. I occasionally meet one or two, mostly elderly men, and I rarely see young and middle-aged men.

    However, this man had broad shoulders and was quite bulky. His feet were fast, and his feet were windy, and he was no more than forty years old.

    He was wearing the standard nurse uniform of the Second Hospital and a large mask, covering his face with only one eye. , hurried past.

    Xiao Haiyang frowned, wondering if it was his illusion, he always felt that the other party's eyes were a little dodgy.

    Before Xiao Haiyang could think about it, Yang Xin, who was next to him, suddenly gently pulled on the corner of his clothes.

    Xiao Haiyang was startled: "...Huh? What did you say?"

    "I was just asking," Yang Xin asked him, holding his chin, "Is the suspect who hospitalized Big Brother Tao about to come out of serious illness? How long will you keep him in the hospital, and the hospitalization fee is not cheap. "

    Xiao Haiyang's watch was blank for a moment: "Yin Ping is about to come out of a serious illness? Who did you listen to?"

    The news that Luo Wenzhou and the others had just received said that Yin Ping's operation was not very effective, and that he might lose his mind...

    "I heard people talking about it when I was cooking for my mother in the cafeteria at noon... Hey, wait!" Yang Xin sat on the drink box, as if she had reacted to something, she suddenly became a little nervous and asked in a low voice, "Brother Xiao, you guys It's not going to be a secret now, is it?"

    Xiao Haiyang stared at her for two seconds, then suddenly ran away.

    Yang Xin jumped up: "Brother Xiao!"

    Xiao Haiyang turned back and shouted at her: "You stay here, don't run around!"

    Where did the rumor that Yin Ping was to be removed from the critical condition came from?

    Who is lying?

    Why?

    There were plainclothes patrols outside the intensive care unit, and Fei Du's eyeliner patrolled further afield. Because of Yin Ping's special status, the ward that was originally not allowed to enter during non-visiting hours was also assigned a criminal police guard, wearing isolation clothing, 24 hours a day. Rotate shifts.

    At this time, there was still half an hour before the shift time, and the detective who was guarding inside had been alone for three and a half hours.

    This is a very painful job. It is absolutely impossible to chat and play on mobile phones. I am wrapped in isolation suits and masks, and I can’t breathe. I also need to keep quiet and try to pretend that I am a wall flower, so as not to affect the work of medical staff. . The policeman who was waiting for the shift looked at his watch for the third time. He was completely deprived of oxygen, wearing a mask and yawning inconveniently. He felt that his double eyelids could not resist the gravitational force, and he almost fell to the floor.

    Someone walked in, the police officer who couldn't open his eyes looked up, and then lowered his head in disappointment - it was a nurse who came in, not a shift colleague.

    The nurse on duty in the intensive care unit would come over every ten minutes to check on the patient's condition. The little nurse had just finished patrolling and went out. The nurse who just came in might not have found anyone and walked straight towards the criminal police.

    He took a closer look, and the criminal policeman on duty discovered that the nurse was actually a man, with his face under the mask and a pair of flattering smiles in his eyes.

    The other party came over and patted him on the shoulder, as if the nurse was not there and needed his help with anything, so he reached out and pointed behind him.

    The criminal policeman on duty subconsciously raised his head along his hand, and the exposed neck skin outside the isolation suit suddenly became cold, and suddenly someone poked a syringe! He was startled, and it was too late to struggle any more. The man who came was very energetic. He covered his mouth with one hand and clasped his arms firmly. The liquid in the needle tube quickly poured into the blood vessels, and the police struggled more and more. The weaker, and after a while, he fell silently.

    The male "nursing worker" helped him to sit on the temporarily propped up chair next to him without expression, and turned to walk towards Yin Ping's illness.

    At this moment, the deserted nurse just came back. She looked up and saw the nurse standing on the head of the patient. She was stunned for a moment, showing a suspicious look - the working hours of the nurse are fixed, and the nurses on duty must arrange it uniformly, which is obviously not the case at this time. when he should come.

    The nurse's footsteps paused, and she said amidst the roar of medical equipment: "Hey, you..."

    The male nurse ignored her abrupt voice, and quickly put another injector against the unconscious Yin Ping's neck.

    The nurse on duty had instinctively felt that something was wrong, she took a few steps forward, and was surprised when she saw his movements. It was too late for her to call someone, and her first reaction was to pounce on herself: "What are you talking about!"

    Xiao Haiyang's pair of waste legs were used purely to maintain balance when he sat down. At this time, he performed extremely well. He stepped on the strong wind and rushed outside the intensive care unit.

    All the plainclothes who were stalking him were disturbed by him. Xiao Haiyang ran until his eyes turned black for a while, leaning against the wall and panting heavily: "Yes, have any outsiders ever entered?"

    "You need to swipe your card to enter the door. Except for our people, it's the hospital." Lang Qiao saw that he was still a little angry, and her tone was also very stiff. Then, she remembered something and said with a pause, "By the way, a nurse just went in... "

    Xiao Haiyang's pupils shrank suddenly, and he suddenly remembered the weird male nurse who just went up from the locked stairwell.

    Just as a doctor who was patrolling the room passed by, Xiao Haiyang swooped over and grabbed the doctor's door card.

    "Hey, what are you doing!" The doctor who patrolled the room was stunned, "You can't go in there! Wait!"

    Xiao Haiyang broke into the intensive care unit without any explanation.

    The loud bang of the door slammed into the little nurse's scream.

    The nurse threw herself on the man's hand holding the syringe, and was thrown away by the other man's force. She staggered under her feet for half a circle, her hands still pulling on the man's arm relentlessly. When she saw someone coming, she hurriedly shouted: "Help! This person is not our hospital..."

    Before the nurse could finish speaking, the whole person was pulled over, tightly strangling his neck, and a knife was pressed against the artery: "Don't move!"

    Xiao Haiyang's footsteps stopped suddenly, and the two sides were at a stalemate for a while.

    When Fei Du received Luo Wenzhou's call, he raised his hand to interrupt Zhou Huaijin. Zhou Huaijin looked at him inexplicably and his expression became more and more serious, and couldn't help asking, "What happened?"

    Fei Du: "Something went wrong."

    Zhou Huaijin raised his hand at him: "I've almost finished talking about the important things. If you are in a hurry, please do it first, and we'll do it another day..."

    "Brother Zhou," Fei Du interrupted him suddenly, "Are you willing to come with us as a witness?"

    Zhou Huaijin paused.

    "I know that in addition to you, the Zhou family has minority shareholders, and your entire family," Fei Du said slowly, "It's not easy for you to find out this step in private and share the information with me. I understand you don't want to get too involved."

    Zhou Huaijin moved her lips and looked at him uneasily in the small and quiet private room.

    "You are very innocent, and Huai Xin is also very innocent," Fei Du said in a deep voice, "but your surname is Zhou. From the time when Zhou Junmao and Zheng Kaifeng bought the murderer-the murder of Zhou Yahou, you were destined to be involved. Brother Zhou, At this point, it is impossible to be alone.”

    The corners of Zhou Huaijin's eyes trembled nervously. After a while, he murmured, "You're right, some things are destined."

    It's like he came into this world at a very delicate moment, and even the person who gave birth to him can't tell who his blood belongs to.

    Fei Du: "I feel that Yang Bo's question is very important."

    Zhou Huaijin took a deep breath, her fingers almost digging into the teacup.

    In the name of "tourism", he traced the barcode left by Mrs. Zhou to the Philippines alone, and then quietly returned to China. He didn't want to alarm anyone. What he found was shocking and pointed directly to the source of Zhou's series of scandals. , but it's just to find a substitute for himself, there is no other value - the poor and hateful people in the story are all dead - Zhou Huaijin came to Fei Du with a little talk, so he made an appointment with him. He met alone, and had already booked a flight ticket to leave. He planned to go to the place where Zhou Huaixin studied painting to live in seclusion.

    "You already know the secret of the previous generation, but there is still one question that has no definite answer," Fei Du said. "Zheng Kaifeng arranged for Dong Gan to kill Zhou Junmao. Why did Dong Xiaoqing leave Zheng Kaifeng in the hotel alone and go to the hospital to assassinate him? you?"

    Zhou Huaijin was stunned: "It's not that when Zheng Kaifeng hired a murderer, in order to hide people's eyes and ears, he used my name..."

    "The murderer Zheng Kaifeng co-hired has a strict membership system, so everyone can be called upon - Brother Zhou, are you a member of the murder club?"

    Zhou Huaijin lost his voice and said, "What?"

    "If you're not, it's impossible for Zheng Kaifeng to use your name," Fei Du said, "not to mention that Zheng Kaifeng's original intention was to make Zhou Junmao die in a car accident unknowingly and make everything look accidental. , this is not the first time he has done this kind of activity, he has never made a mistake, why should he be prepared this time to be discovered when he buys the murderer?"

    Zhou Huaijin's mind was a mess, and his thoughts couldn't keep up with Fei Du's voice.

    Fei Du gave him a deep look and got up to leave.

    "and many more!"

    Two minutes later, Zhou Huaijin canceled his trip and sat in the car that was speeding to the Second Hospital.

    "I... I found out that Yang Bo's father died thirteen years ago," Zhou Huaijin said. "I hit a seven-seat commercial vehicle. The car was a work team from a company that went to bid for land.

    "Is it also treated as an accident?" Luo Wenzhou asked him while driving the car fast, "It's not easy to kill everyone in the car at once, and at that time, no one has conspiracy theories and thinks that this is the case. Isn't it natural?"

    "No," Zhou Huaijin said, "Actually, when this case was dealt with, they knew it was murder, but the public opinion was underdeveloped and it was covered up. I also asked a few business partners to find out. Yang Bo's father's name is Yang Zhi. When the car crashed, a big slogan protesting the demolition was written in red on his clothes - the target land was suspected of being demolished, and the Yang family was one of the victims. When a car was sent to inspect the land, the people did not know that the demolition was not the same as the developer. Yang Zhi must have mistaken the developer's car for the demolition. It's just an accident."

    Luo Wenzhou frowned.

    "But the subtle thing is that after Yang Bo's father died, his mother took the compensation and moved away. She moved to Yancheng and lived in a high-end community with high rent, which theoretically exceeded her ability to pay, and she subsequently moved to Yancheng. He sent Yang Bo out of the country and joined the educational program sponsored by the Zhou family."

    Luo Wenzhou: "Yang Zhi's car accident is not for Zhou's service, Zhou Junmao and the others don't need to pay extra compensation, why?"

    "Hostage." Fei Du said softly.

    Luo Wenzhou: "Who is it used to threaten?"

    "A boy with average aptitude can only threaten his parents." Fei Du murmured, "Moving to Yancheng... What can Zheng Kaifeng do with her? Thirteen years ago..."

    Suddenly, Fei Du didn't know what to think, his half-closed eyes suddenly widened.

    The author has something to say: there are two bosses in this volume, first come with a small goal ~ push a small boss tomorrow~
