Chapter 163

priests speak of ghosts and spirits, and wandering preachers travel the world, speaking of people, ghosts, and the common folk!"This phrase, it sounded like some sort of incantation. Just hearing it,...Everything happened too fast, too suddenly, and I happened to be out last night! I'm sitting on the bed holding my head with no idea what to do. Hong Jie's thing hit me too hard.

Hongjie took the payment check yesterday at noon. Could it be that she was tempted by the money and therefore went too hard on her headaches

If that were really the case, I wouldn't believe it, and I don't want to believe it.

Right now, the only way to find out the truth about last night's events is to confront Red Sister directly! I need to ask her why she did this! I didn't even consider the story the owner told about the haunted apple tree. A normal person wouldn't believe that.

The central hospital was crowded and chaotic, with people coming and going. It was hard to tell who was alive or dead. I bought a baseball cap and sunglasses, disguised myself, and snuck into the hospital. I had to see the man with my own eyes.

This matter involves intentional injury. After inquiring with the nurse, I came to the intensive care unit. Through the glass window of the ward, I saw someone lying on the bed with their head sucking oxygen and their upper body wrapped in bandages. Their face was pale.

The nurse asked me if I was a patient's family member. She said there was a bill, and I needed to pay for the surgery and ICU bed deposit. It totaled over 40,000 yuan.

I said that I was a friend of the patient and would help pay for the surgery, but I hoped to postpone it for two days.

The nurse said the deadline was two days later, ICU costs were high, and the hospital could only allow a delay of two days. If the money wasn't paid by then, they would have to stop the medication and transfer to a general ward.

I nodded and said I understood, that I would make up the outstanding payment within two days. After finishing, I asked the nurse if I could go in to see the patient.

The nurse thought for a moment, frowned, and said, "There were police officers here two hours ago. They told us to call them if the patient woke up. The patient has a ruptured spleen and a perforated colon, their injuries are very serious. Although you're a friend of the patient, it's best not to go in."

She didn't say no, so I knew there was still a chance. At that moment, I begged her, calling her "sister" over and over again.

I ground on it for ages, and the nurse glanced at the clock and gritted her teeth, saying: "Alright then, you can only go in for three minutes. When time's up, I'll knock on the glass, and when I do, you have to come out, understood"

I nodded repeatedly, saying I understood and that I definitely wouldn't make Nurse Sister difficult.

After I put on the isolation gown, the nurse opened the ICU door and let me in.

In bed, with his eyes closed and a pained expression, I almost cried. He was perfectly fine yesterday, how did he change like this in just one night....

Sitting by the bedside, I clutched his head tightly in my right hand and choked back tears: "Bazh Tou, it's me, Yun Feng. I came to see you. Can you hear me They all say it was Hong Jie who did this to you, but I don't believe it. Bazh Tou, tell me what really happened, please"

"Big brother is gone, Hong Jie is gone, you left me alone in Hong Kong, what should I do next..."

Tap tap.

Three minutes passed quickly, I hadn't even had time to say two sentences, when a nurse outside the ward knocked on the glass to remind me that my time was up.

After leaving the ward, the nurse gave me a form and a carbon pen, asking me to fill out the admission procedures for him, including his name, age, hometown, and so on.

I was crouched at the front desk, filling out a form, when I suddenly saw two police officers in uniforms walking down the hallway. I heard them talking to each other as they walked.

"Sir Li, I think this is just an ordinary case of intentional injury. According to the testimony from the hotel owner, those people came from mainland China for tourism. Sir Li, you're about to be promoted, and mishandling this small matter could have a negative impact on your promotion. I suggest we downplay it and handle it through the normal investigation process."

"Sigh.... I want to too," another policeman shook his head. "Xiao Zhao, don't you find something is off about this I ask you, yesterday Yanmen checked the records, the injured old man arrived by plane six days ago. As for the woman who the innkeeper said committed the crime, there are no flight records, no long-distance bus records from Shenzhen, and not even boat travel records. Xiao Zhao, how do you think she got here"

“This...” the young officer chuckled and rubbed his hands, “Li sir, it’s funny how things work. The surveillance camera at the guesthouse just happened to break last night. The witness said they saw the culprit with their own eyes. Right now, we can only label that woman as a major suspect. We checked the registration she left at the guesthouse – her name is Chen Hong – and have already sent out an alert. She definitely won’t be able to escape Hong Kong!”eath.I lowered my head and respectfully called out, "Master Zhao."The hunchbacked old man squinted at me, then said nothing."Tou coughed and said, 'Yunfeng, Xiaohong, are you regretting it Regretting...
