Not to mention, professional police investigators are professional police investigators. If the initial courtesy made the two of them a little embarrassed, then as the other party changed the topic and talked about the case, the two of them instantly took on the roles without waiting for Xiao Zhang to speak. , Lao Wang spoke first after nodding, and then seriously reported the recent work progress to the leader...
"After the incident, in order not to cause public panic, after repeated discussions among multiple departments, the police department finally tentatively classified the problem at No. 21 High School as a collective food poisoning incident. During this period, city leaders continued to urge the police department to speed up the investigation of the case so as to In order to find the culprit of the incident within a short time, our criminal investigation team has detained Xu Banghua, the contractor of the 21st High School cafeteria, together with relevant personnel. However, since Xu Banghua and others have also been infected themselves, they can only be transferred to the hospital for investigation and questioning. Through the investigation, During cross-examination, Xu Banghua and other relevant canteen personnel have already explained what they did on the day of the incident on the 19th, but none of them related to the key facts of the case. In addition, the testing department did not find any poisonous or strange viruses in the canteen inventory that day. of food.”
At this point, Lao Wang paused for a moment and secretly glanced at the investigator. It is true that the old police officer was trying to observe his words, but unfortunately the young man's expression was expressionless and he remained calm. Seeing this, he was filled with frustration and uneasiness, and waited to look at Xiao Wang. After taking a look, Lao Wang continued: "Well, as for that weird albinism, the city has organized a professional medical team to conduct targeted research. At present, except for confirming that the disease is not contagious, the research progress in other aspects is somewhat slow. "
Although the report has ended here, after Lao Wang said these words, his forehead was already filled with sweat unconsciously. Yes, through the above report, anyone with a discerning eye can see that the city is not doing a very good job in handling the case. , the case has not made much progress, and the research on strange diseases has almost stagnated. Everything is not satisfactory. Therefore, in Lao Wang’s opinion, the investigator’s face must not look good after hearing the above report, and he may even look bad. It is possible to reprimand him verbally, but fortunately he is only a low-level police officer, so even if he is reprimanded, it will not be his turn.
Thinking so, what surprised Lao Wang was that after hearing the report, the young investigator in front of him didn't seem angry. Not only did the other person show no emotional change, but he nodded politely: "Well, thank you for your hard work. Officer Wang will report." Very detailed,”
After saying this, without waiting for the other party to be humble, the young man changed the subject: "You seemed to have said just now that this disease is not contagious, right?"
Faced with the investigator's inquiry, this time, Xiao Zhang, who had not spoken for a long time, finally found an opportunity and hurriedly took the place of Lao Wang, patted his chest and assured: "Don't worry, leader, the conclusion is based on the judgment of many experts from the city medical team, and there is absolutely no problem. We and I have Captain Liu went to the ward to question Xu Banghua many times."
"Well, since I'm not contagious, now I'm going to the ward alone to ask Xu Banghua some questions. You don't want to come with me."
There is no reason, no reason. As discussed above, after learning about the recent situation from Lao Wang, He Fei did not hesitate anymore and directly stated that he wanted to see Xu Banghua in person. After giving the order to the two of them, he ignored it. Others, He Fei stepped forward and walked straight to the intensive care unit.
………
Push the door to enter, close the door, and the first thing that comes into view is a standard ward. It is said to be standard, but in fact it is different. At least here, you can also see some unfamiliar medical machines, and the machines display various Different numerical values or English symbols, etc. Of course, the above is not the focus. The focus is the central hospital bed, and on the bed lies a fat man with a fat head and big ears.
There is no doubt that this person is Xu Banghua.
As the field of vision locked forward, a familiar scene came into view. The fat man was lying motionless on the hospital bed. His face was pale, and his plump body was also covered in white. He didn't know whether he was sleeping. At this moment, the other person was like this His eyes were closed tightly and he had no reaction at all. He seemed to be in a weak state. He looked almost the same as his sister!
Albinism is a strange disease. In addition to pale skin, the most obvious characteristic of those suffering from albinism is physical weakness.
Although he said he was sleeping, the noise He Fei made after entering the room still disturbed the other party. What was even weirder was that before He Fei could wake him up, Xu Banghua spoke first on the bed. The fat man did not open his eyes when he spoke, but just like this Anticipating something, he whispered in a feeble tone: "Captain Liu, don't ask anymore. I have told you everything I know. Again, I neither poisoned nor I don't know how." It’s the same thing, think about it, if it was really me, would I be such an idiot that I would do this to myself?”
Listening to Xu Banghua's low words full of helplessness, He Fei knew that the other party had admitted the wrong person. So, prompted by a certain thought, the other party's voice just fell. The college student walked to the bed, first narrowed his eyes slightly, and then used no trace of words. He spoke in an emotionally cold tone:
"Xu Banghua, you seem to be feeling uncomfortable?"
As soon as he said this, the fat man noticed that the voice was different. Even so, he still closed his eyes and seemed not to care who was in front of the bed. The reason was very simple. In Xu Banghua's opinion, even if the other person was not Liu, who had been disturbing his rest before, The captain must also be another police investigator. Anyway, his ultimate goal is to get words out of himself, but in reality? In fact, he had nothing to say, and he himself really didn't know what was going on, so naturally, when he heard He Fei's question, Xu Banghua smiled on the bed, and squeezed out a bitter smile on his pale and fat face: "Haha, Aren’t you talking nonsense? No one can understand how bad this feeling of powerlessness is without personal experience. Now I don’t even have the strength to hold up chopsticks when eating. You said...how did you say it would be better? "
After a pause, the man continued with a wry smile: "Mr. Police Inspector, I think there is no need for you to ask. I have already told you the truth and told you almost everything I know. By the way, there is also my disease...it seems to be incurable. Okay? Haha, that’s right, it’s been so long, and if it can be cured, it would have been cured long ago, for him, I didn’t expect that I, Xu, would die like this when I was in the prime of my life.”
"I haven't enjoyed my life enough in Mahler Gobi, so I won't give in..."
Listening to Xu Banghua's unwilling words, He Fei's heart moved, and he immediately asked another question that seemed to be nonsense:
"Looking at your appearance, you seem to really don't want to die?"
However, it was better not to say this, but as soon as he said it, Xu Banghua, who was already extremely unwilling, became even more agitated. His whole body, which was originally motionless except for his mouth, actually started to tremble faintly. First, his fat trembled, then he gritted his teeth, and finally from his mouth. A hoarse roar popped out: "Shabi, I want to die! I have made so much money in the past ten years and haven't had time to spend it, and the women I support outside have not enjoyed enough. How could I want to die? I don't want to die. , cough! Cough cough cough!"
As mentioned before, patients with strange albinism will cause violent coughs when they encounter mood swings. Sure enough, after gritting his teeth and saying the above words, Xu Banghua immediately coughed violently. His pessimism was clear, and his unwillingness was obvious. Only He Feimian Expressionless, he just stood there and stared at the other person silently. He said it was observation, but in fact, through the conversation just now, he had already reached part of the answer, or basically reached a conclusion, that is...
Xu Banghua is not the culprit in the incident.
Yes, the words he just said were actually all tests, and from the other party's expression and answers, he could clearly feel that the other party's emotions were not fake. The reason was very simple. It is said that when a person is about to die, his words are also good. No matter how smart he is at ordinary times, once he learns that his life is about to end, what he says will often be true. What's more, he has further confirmed it through observing and testing Xu Banghua. In this case, it means that Xu Banghua It is very possible that the truth behind the strange disease is not known.
As mentioned above, after it was basically determined that Xu Banghua was most likely just a victim of a strange disease who was wrongly accused by the police, although no clues were obtained from the other party, the strange thing is that He Fei did not lose heart, let alone leave, and the college student still looked solemn. , glanced at the other party's status, and then he moved, getting closer to the patient, getting closer to the other party, and came to Xu Banghua, who was already full of despair, and then leaned over and lowered his voice to say something in the other party's ear. :
"What if I said I could save you?"
Ding!
His heart was beating wildly and his nerves were suddenly tense. He Fei had just finished speaking. On the bed, Xu Banghua, who had closed his eyes for a long time, suddenly opened his eyes!
Not only that, as soon as he opened his eyes, Fatty stared at He Fei who was very close at hand.
At this moment, looking at this strange young man whom he had never met before, even though he did not know him, Xu Banghua was influenced by his words and the sudden hope. He ignored everything. He originally thought he would die and ignored the other person's identity. Like a drowning man grasping for a life-saving straw, his face showed surprise and disbelief, and he asked in a complicated tone of expectation mixed with suspicion: "You, what did you just say?"
"I said I can save you, and I am certain to save you."
"You didn't lie to me?"
"I won't lie to you, and there is no need to lie to you, because even if I lie to you, I won't get any benefits. Of course, you can choose not to believe it. If you don't believe it, I will leave now."
After saying that, regardless of the other party's reaction, He Fei raised his head and turned to leave.
"Wait, wait a minute! Cough, cough, please wait!"
It was exactly as expected. Let’s not talk about what the other party’s so-called rescue meant. In fact, the moment he heard that he still had hope of survival, Xu Banghua was already excited and his thoughts were racing. Seeing that the other party turned around and wanted to leave, he couldn’t care less in a hurry. Doubtful? He immediately stopped the other party without saying a word.
Xu Banghua chose to believe it, and he chose to believe it without any hesitation in He Fei's words.
reason?
The reason is very simple. It's not that Xu Banghua has become stupid, or that he doesn't know what the other party is planning, but...
Now he has no choice!
