"Yes, from this, it becomes clear that the person who helped the suspect escape must be a woman. Go back and check again, and make sure to find that woman before nightfall!"
"Understood, Captain Hu!"
The person spoke very rapidly, and after uttering these few sentences, immediately left the outpatient hall.
Ou Mucen paused there, even his finger preparing to swipe across the phone screen stopped in place.
When Bai Tingfang saw that he wasn’t moving, she leaned over, "What’s wrong? Mucen, did you leave something behind?"
Ou Mucen took a glance around the hall, and after a long while, ultimately didn’t say anything. He then left the place, sending out a message as he did so, "I’m going home first, will return to the apartment tonight."
After that, he turned off his phone and put it back in his pocket.
Seeing this, Bai Tingfang didn’t say anything further, and, clutching his arm, got into the Rolls Royce with him. In a short while, the car disappeared from the hospital entrance.
It was in this moment, from a concealed spot on the fourth floor above the hall, a pair of eyes emerged like a ghost, watching until the car finally drove away. Then the person, supporting an old lady hunched over with a stooped back, came out from hiding.
"All done with the check-up, we can go back now."
The stooped old lady didn’t look well, a cold sweat breaking out over her sallow face.
Seeing this, the young woman with a face mask supported her and began walking towards the escalator. It was then that the phone she carried rang. She stopped and took out the phone.
"I’m going home first, will return to the apartment tonight."
A simple few words, as straightforward as he always was.
The old lady being supported turned her eyes toward the young woman’s face, "I never expected, after all these years of us going round and round, that you would be the biggest winner."
Her lips were tinged with the bitterness and self-mockery of a lost battle.
The young woman looked at her coldly, without saying a word, and put the phone back.
Driven by insane jealousy, with a hint of sarcasm, the old woman retorted, "But don’t get too pleased with yourself. Bai Tingfang is not as easy to deal with as Mei Liping. I toiled in that house for five years and got nowhere. Do you really think you can be accepted by that woman?"
She was truly malicious, to say such things even now.
Thus, a fierce look flashed in the girl’s eyes, and in an instant, her fingers dug into the bandaged area on the old woman’s back, "I guess you don’t want to kill that man anymore. In that case, I might as well finish you off right now!"
The old lady, tormented in such a manner, suddenly convulsed in pain.
It was a pain worse than death!
Finally, the old lady shrank down completely, "Alright, I’ll stop talking. You... let go of me!"
She could never triumph over her, especially now while she was in her grasp.
It was only after these submissive words that the woman let go of her, and finally, the two of them left the place smoothly.
Many times, she had to admit that she was smarter than her, just time. She thought that after she had swapped her out of the sickroom, she would immediately take her and leave the hospital.
