Officer Yang and I walked out of the morgue. We did not go to the duty room to talk to the young nurse, but left the hospital directly and walked towards the opposite side of the hospital. It was almost noon now, and it was time for Officer Yang to treat me to a meal.
This time, Officer Yang was not as stingy as before. He very "generously" invited me to have a bowl of beef noodles across the street. I was very dissatisfied with such a stingy person, so I immediately called Zhang Qishan, who I hadn't seen all morning, to come and blackmail him together.
Zhang Qishan didn't bring Diandian with her when she came. It seemed that she had already put Diandian back home. Before I said anything after entering the door, Zhang Qishan kept mocking Officer Yang for being stingy. Officer Yang could only smile bitterly but didn't dare to say anything. After all, according to Officer Yang, Zhang Qishan in front of him was a rich woman. Even if Officer Yang treated her to a table of dishes, she would probably say that Officer Yang was stingy.
I have never asked Zhang Qishan about how much money she has. I always felt that it was not a good idea to ask this. But now I feel that I don’t seem to know her well enough. I thought that after this matter is over, I must ask Zhang Qishan and have a good talk with her. It’s not that I want to take her property. I just want to know how big the gap is between me and her so that I can set a goal for the future.
The meal was quickly finished. Perhaps because I did not accompany her to the movies or shopping today, Zhang Qishan seemed a little unhappy. So I did not let Zhang Qishan leave and decided to search for the evidence I wanted with her in the hospital in the afternoon. Officer Yang was naturally tactful and said that he had official business to attend to in the afternoon and that I could just call him if I needed anything.
After Officer Yang left, Zhang Qishan and I returned to the city hospital. On the way, Zhang Qishan asked about today's case, and I briefly told her about it. When she heard Li Hua's provocative words, she immediately said angrily, "Where is Li Hua? I'll go with you to find him and argue with him! Who does he think he is? How dare he say that to you."
Seeing Zhang Qishan protecting me like this, I felt warm in my heart and said, "Don't worry, I won't lose a piece of flesh if he says a few words. Anyway, he will definitely be the one who gets slapped in the face in the end. What, don't you believe in your husband's ability?"
"Of course I believe you, but..."
"Only what?"
Zhang Qishan's eyes dimmed as he asked, "You still can't forget Lin Yingxue?"
When I heard Zhang Qishan say this, I instantly felt my hair stand up in fear! I immediately grabbed her arm and said, "How can you think like that? You know how I feel about you. The reason I made a bet with him is simply because I don't like him. You..."
Before I finished speaking, Zhang Qishan immediately laughed secretly and said, "Really? I was just joking with you. Look how scared you are."
Seeing that Zhang Qishan was just joking, I breathed a sigh of relief and said, "How can I not be scared? Making you angry is scarier than sleeping in the morgue for a night. Really, let's go, let's go to the same place."
"Where to go?"
"You'll know when you get there."
I took Zhang Qishan with me to the guard room of the municipal hospital to ask the old security guard mentioned by the young nurse whether he knew what I wanted to know.
From a distance, I saw a thin old man sitting leisurely in the guard room drinking tea. When he saw Zhang Qishan and I coming in, he immediately said vigilantly, "What's the matter with you two?"
"It's like this. I'm from the Binhe Police Station. I'm here to ask you for clues about the murder that happened in the morgue in the past few days. I hope you can cooperate."
I shamelessly said that I was a policeman, and when the old man heard that we were policemen, his expression softened a little and he said, "Tell me, what do you want to ask?"
"You should know the nurse in the morgue duty room, right? I heard that she often asks you to help because she doesn't dare to go to the morgue."
When the old man heard this question, he immediately laughed and said, "Yes, that girl is timid and usually doesn't dare to go in. Every time she needs to clean or move corpses, she asks me to help. I have always advised her not to work here if she is so timid, but she just won't listen. Alas."
The old man's answer was exactly what I expected, which was exactly what I was confused about, so I continued to ask, "Have you noticed anything wrong with her recently? Or any unusual behavior?"
The old man thought about it carefully and said, "Now that you mention it, it's true. That little girl seems to be very interested in the female corpse that was lost recently. Every time I go to the morgue to clean up, she always asks about the corpse. This makes me feel a little strange. Later, the corpse was lost, and I joked with her that she might have secretly taken it away, haha."
The old man's answer this time completely pinned the suspicion on the young nurse. However, at this time, I happened to see something. Because I saw this thing, I finally understood what I had not understood before. All the doubts in this case were also solved when I discovered this thing.
I had prepared a lot of questions to ask, but now it seems that it is completely unnecessary. Zhang Qishan and I said goodbye to the old man and walked out of the guard room. I felt a lot more relaxed at this moment, and my emotions gradually became excited, because I knew that I could solve the case much faster than Li Hua!
"I hope he doesn't find out. As long as he doesn't find out, I'm sure to win!"
Zhang Qishan, who was standing by, looked at me in confusion and asked, "What are you talking about? Didn't you say you were going to ask that old man for some clues? How come you came out after just two questions?"
"Because I already know the answer I want. Now I just need to wait patiently for the murderer to reveal himself."
Because I was in a good mood, I said to Zhang Qishan with a smile on my face, and pinched her nose. Zhang Qishan immediately broke free, looked at me with a reproachful face and said, "Don't pinch my nose. Are you going to pinch my nose off in such a cold day? Now that the truth has been revealed, let's go out for a walk. I will go with you to identify the murderer in the evening. I want to see Li Hua being humiliated in front of you with my own eyes."
I said helplessly, "I'm afraid this is a bit problematic, because I still have things to do, and I probably won't be back until very late at night. What happened today is a little dangerous, so if you're here, it might not be appropriate."
After that, I was afraid that Zhang Qishan would be suspicious, so I immediately told her my plan quietly. Zhang Qishan, who was already very disappointed, looked a little better after hearing my plan. She nodded and said, "Okay, it seems that I will be a burden if I stay. Then I will go back first. Remember to come back early in the evening."
"Okay, be careful on the road, I'll go back after I'm done here."
Zhang Qishan then turned around with a smile, but before she had taken two steps, she suddenly turned around and looked at me with a strange smile and said, "Are you attracted to the young nurse?"
I knew Zhang Qishan was joking, so I nodded and said, "Yeah, but how can the little nurse be as pretty as you? Go home, take a shower and wait for me, hahahaha!"
After saying goodbye to Zhang Qishan, I first called Officer Yang and asked him to help me investigate something. Then I took the file book that the young nurse gave me before and went to the duty room again. As soon as I entered the room, I saw the young nurse trimming her nails boredly. She just looked up at me and ignored me.
I just smiled and walked over to her, returning the file to her and said, "Here I go. But by the way, there are really a lot of beauties on it."
The young nurse looked at me with disdain and said, "How long have you been single? Are you even interested in dead people?"
"You're so anxious to know how long I've been single? Are you interested in me?"
I looked at the nurse with a smirk on my face. After hearing this, the nurse's face immediately darkened and she said, "As expected, none of you men are good. This girl doesn't like you. You'd better leave now!"
I was not angry, but I paid special attention to what the nurse said. It seemed that someone had just used the same method as me. I thought that person must be Li Hua.
But it doesn't matter. The same method doesn't necessarily mean the same effect. I still think I have a sure win this time. Seeing that the nurse ignored me, I shook my head and walked out the door, saying, "What a pity. That Li Li was so beautiful and died like this. If she could be my girlfriend, I would be so happy, haha!"
After saying that, I walked out of the duty room and closed the door without looking back at the nurse because I had achieved my goal.
All that was left was to wait. The reason why I didn’t go out with Zhang Qishan was because I wanted to ask Li Hua some questions, and I guess only he could give me the definite answers.
As I was walking downstairs, I wanted to call Bai Qi to ask for Li Hua's phone number. Suddenly, a figure passed me on the stairs. I didn't see who he was because I was looking down at my phone. I was about to leave when I heard the person who passed me just now called me.
"You are Ji Wen, right?"
When I heard someone calling me, I immediately turned around and found a young man of similar age and handsome appearance standing behind me, staring at me with an indescribable strange smile on his face.
When I saw this person, for some reason I felt goose bumps all over my body, as if my soul instinctively felt that the person in front of me was extremely dangerous!
Just by looking at this person, I felt as if I was facing a formidable enemy. I immediately put my phone in my pocket, stared at him warily and asked, "Who are you?"
"Don't worry, I won't do anything to you. I just wanted to come and see if the clues I left secretly have been found. Judging from your appearance, you should have noticed it, right?"
