Chapter 570: [570] Proactively pull his sleeve Chapter 570: [570] Proactively pull his sleeve No one’s ever heard of someone bringing a cake to the police station, it’s almost as if the municipal bureau has become a cake delivery service.
Thud, thud, someone knocked on the office door twice.
Huang Zhilei went to open the door and was surprised by the visitor, “Doctor Fu, are you looking for Dr. Cao?”
“No.” Fu Xinheng brushed past him into the office, intending to see Xie Wanying inside.
Zhu Huicang and Zhou Junpeng followed him in.
With so many sudden visitors, Cao Yong turned around to ask the cardiovascular surgery team, “Have you figured it out yet?”
“We have. We asked everyone, and no one remembers treating his father.” Zhu Huicang reported, “Then we called the municipal bureau to find out which hospital his father was admitted to. We spoke to the attending doctor across and requested his past medical records, but there was no record of his father being treated at Guoxie. None of our Guoxie doctors’ signatures were present.”
“Which hospital is his father staying at?”
“Dachang District Integrative Medicine. We know that hospital is not bad either.”
So, was the murderer lying?
Listening to the teachers talk, Xie Wanying recalled and yes, from the beginning when she heard Brother Hu discuss the case, she found it unbelievable. Generally, family members of patients want the best possible treatment, not to go around killing doctors on a whim.
With all this time, instead of earnestly requesting Guoxie to treat the patient, they were engaged in all sorts of bizarre activities. Drafting complaint letters, figuring out ways to procure long knives restricted on the market, spreading rumors, and trailing her for several days.
At least for now, the suspect’s father was still alive.
“Did you come here to ask what I found out at the municipal bureau?” Cao Yong jumped right in with the direct question.
Zhu Huicang pointed to Fu Xinheng, “The robot said he wanted to come.”
Fu Xinheng stood there, facing a student as he spoke.
By this time, Xie Wanying had retrieved the ultrasound report and stood up straight to respond, “Teacher Fu.”
Cao Yong stepped in front of her to ask, “What do you want to ask her?”
“Yes, since it concerns the reputation of our cardiovascular surgery department. I certainly want to understand the situation clearly,” Fu Xinheng said in his usual stern tone.
“She’s also a victim. What’s the point of asking her?”
“Dr. Cao, I don’t believe you didn’t say the same thing to the police when you went to pick her up from the municipal bureau. This matter needs to be completely clarified before she can be truly safe.”
So that’s what Senior Cao went to the municipal bureau for. Xie Wanying’s heart thumped twice.
“Shouldn’t you wait a while, let her mood calm down today, and ask her tomorrow? You, as a doctor, should understand this,” Cao Yong said.
The two men in front of her were at loggerheads, equally matched in their aura. Everyone else fell silent, not daring to interrupt, fearing they might ignite the fuse for a major conflict.
Seeing that Cao Yong was not backing down, Fu Xinheng’s brows furrowed slightly.
“Senior Cao, I know what Teacher Fu wants to ask me, and if I can remember what was said, it might help the police solve the case faster,” Xie Wanying said while clutching at the sleeve of Cao Yong next to her.
Cao Yong turned his head, his gaze falling on the hand clutching his clothing, a flicker of surprise in his eyes: What was she doing, reaching for his sleeve?
“She’s a girl. Let it go, we can ask tomorrow. Anyway, the man is locked up in detention, there’s no worry he will come out,” Zhu Huicang seized the chance to play peacemaker.
