Special Forces Medic-Chapter 706 - 674: It Turns Out to Be Her

"Isn't it just a road?" Yao Zheng couldn't see anything unusual about it—a road running from east to southwest, very ordinary. Could there be something wrong? He couldn't help but ask out of curiosity.

"Hehe!" Secretary Luo chuckled softly and said slowly, "From our perspective, this road runs from east and bends at the sky slash point towards the southwest corner, and this bend happens to extend out at Hengfei Mansion."

"That's correct!"

"Let's imagine whether this angle looks like a scythe?" Secretary Luo was afraid Yao Zheng still couldn't understand, so he breathed on the glass window, tracing a curve with his finger to represent the road, and marking the government building and Hengfei Building on the arc. "Do you understand now?"

Yao Zheng was a smart man, and with Secretary Luo's simplified representation, he immediately understood the hidden meaning.

"District Chief Yao, to be honest, was there ever a time during Hengfei's construction when a lot of people died?"

Yao Zheng was silent. Sometimes being too smart leaves you unsure of how to respond. Secretary Luo didn't care what Yao Zheng thought; he had already gauged some understanding from his expression.

"Piling not going down is in itself an indication that this land isn't suitable for building. The Daoist's use of live sacrifice was only a temporary fix. Even if piling works and they build on it, there would still be bloodshed. Moreover, Hengfei Building is right at the scythe's edge, there's an air of being bisected."

"Is there no way to break this?"

Secretary Luo shook his head. "Everything has its rightful place. I checked; this place used to be a shantytown. Was there something that happened during the demolition?"

"This..."

"District Chief Yao, this isn't a trivial matter. Of course, you don't have to believe it, but you're next to it, so I believe you might know more details than me, right? Think about whether my feng shui explanation holds any truth."

"Originally, the area next to it was meant to be a medical station."

"Alright, District Chief Yao, this isn't my primary purpose for coming here. How you handle it is up to you!" Secretary Luo waved his hand, not wanting to hear any explanations. "Who knows how much Han Fei has hidden? I think it's more than just contraband drugs. With so many deaths on his hands, how can he sleep peacefully?"

Yao Zheng shivered violently, and the cold sweat climbing from his back made him feel chilled.

Fortunately, at this moment, Secretary Li entered with a few people. "District Chief Yao, I've brought the people."

"Hmm!" Yao Zheng took a deep breath to calm himself, sat back behind his desk, while Secretary Luo took a seat on the sofa to the side. "Which of you is Zhang Qiang's bedside nurse?"

"Me!" answered a slightly older-looking woman.

"Come over here first." Yao Zheng called her forward, neither offering a seat nor asking questions, just scrutinizing her up and down.

"I am Zhang Qiang's bedside nurse." The woman's voice trembled, whether it was because she was meeting the district chief for the first time or due to guilt, it was abnormal.

"Do you know what crime you've committed?" Yao Zheng's words made Secretary Luo frown.

"I don't know anything, really nothing!" The woman was so frightened she nearly fell to her knees, shaking her head vigorously, claiming she knew nothing, her face pale, eyes terrified, her body trembling with fear.

"Do you think claiming ignorance will just let this slide?" Yao Zheng glared at her fiercely, speaking menacingly. "I advise you to honestly confess everything."

Secretary Luo stood up from the sofa, walked to her side, patted her, whispered a few words in her ear, and then sat back on the sofa again. Yao Zheng saw this gesture and a cold flash crossed his eyes.

"After Zhang Qiang was brought in, I performed simple care for him. His nasal cavity was full of mud and needed cleaning, along with a gastric lavage procedure. But Dr. Zhong said it wasn't necessary as he had already been treated before arriving."

"Zhang Qiang drowned before being brought into the hospital, how could he be poisoned? Who issued the death certificate?"

"Dr. Zhong wouldn't let us intervene; he personally handled all the medications."

"District Chief Yao, we're not lying. When Zhang Qiang was brought in, he was conscious, but then his condition suddenly worsened. Dr. Zhong said it was peculiar and wanted to study it himself, not allowing us near." Another two women dressed as nurses attested to her words, leaving Yao Zheng momentarily at a loss for words.

"District Chief Yao, I think we should let them go for now. The person in question is already dead, and that Dr. Zhong is also now in a vegetative state. Trying to find clues seems very difficult, might as well..."

"Secretary Luo, I know you mean well, but there must be something fishy about Zhang Qiang's death. This woman was his bedside nurse, and as a healthcare worker, how can she claim to know absolutely nothing?" Yao Zheng slammed his hand on the desk, stood up and said to the people beside him, "Secretary Li, contact the police and have them take her away."

"District Chief Yao!" The woman dropped to her knees with a thud, tears streaming down her face, pleading with Yao Zheng, and then crawling over to Secretary Luo. "It really has nothing to do with me. Dr. Zhong stuffed twenty thousand yuan into my hands, told me to inject about five milligrams of a drug into Zhang Qiang's IV drip bottle every day, claiming it was a nutrient. I really didn't know anything!"

"Hmph!" Yao Zheng snorted coldly, raising his chin at Secretary Luo as if saying, you see, this is how you need to handle such people.

"Was it Dr. Zhong who gave it to you?" Secretary Luo asked as he looked at the woman, clearly terrified out of her wits. "Was there anyone else involved? Take your time to think, no need to rush. We're just here to ask a few questions."

"I don't remember. There's only one hospital in the north district; everyone comes here for treatment. It was very busy that day, and I saw Dr. Zhong meeting a woman at the fire escape, and then he handed me that drug."

"A woman? Do you know who it is?"

"It seems, it seems like she's frequently in the financial news."

"Secretary Li, could you please find the financial newspaper with women's photos for me?" Secretary Luo instructed Secretary Li, who was standing idly by.

"Me?" Secretary Li pointed to his nose in surprise. Did he hear that right?

"Any problems?" Secretary Luo replied coldly.

"What are you standing around for? Hurry up." Yao Zheng barked, and Secretary Li dashed off without a trace.

"Big brother knows how to manage people well!" Yao Zheng laughed awkwardly, saying nothing. The woman kneeling by the side was already sobbing uncontrollably, and Secretary Luo called over two more nurses. "You two…." 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮

"I don't have any relation with Zhang Qiang; I was the one who registered him when he was admitted to the hospital." One nurse hurriedly declared her lack of involvement, and Secretary Luo nodded at her after giving her a glance.

"And you?"

"I'm the one who prepared his body for the morgue." The statement was chilling, and the girl trembled, seeming very afraid of him, constantly hiding behind another girl.

"Did you issue the death certificate?"

"No, it was Dr. Zhong. I was just responsible for changing his clothes and having someone take him to the morgue."

"Alright, you can go back now."

"The newspaper is here." Secretary Li had barely opened the door when he bumped into the two fleeing nurses. "What, are you in such a hurry to reincarnate?"

"Could you please identify the woman who was with Dr. Zhong from the newspaper?" Secretary Luo placed a stack of newspapers on the coffee table.

"Look carefully!" Yao Zheng suddenly said with a veiled tone, falling silent afterward. Secretary Luo gave him a meaningful glance.

The woman carefully examined the photos in the newspaper. The people featured in the financial news were either major entrepreneurs or successful individuals, mainly male. Female appearances were rare, so in the newspapers Secretary Li brought, women occupied only a few spots. "Her!"

After several confirmations, the woman pointed out the figure she had seen back then. Secretary Luo picked up the newspaper and glanced at the person in it, involuntarily shouting out, his voice filled with shock and even a trace of fear.

"What happened?" Yao Zheng jumped from his leather chair when he heard the shout.

"District Chief Yao, take a look at who this is?" Secretary Luo dared not say the name directly, handing the newspaper to Yao Zheng.

Yao Zheng looked at it briefly and fell back into the leather chair. "What's going on with her? Are you sure you didn't mistake the person?"

"I swear to God, there's no mistake."

"You can go back first. If there's anything, we'll reach out to you again. Once you're back, you must not mention this to anyone." Secretary Luo dismissed the woman, as he couldn't sit still or stand steady, pacing restlessly around the room.

"District Chief Yao, isn't this President Yan?" Yao Zheng nodded, unable to say a word.

Just then, the door was pushed open from the outside, and someone walked in.

"Minister Wang!" Upon seeing the newcomer, Yao Zheng immediately rose from his chair, and Secretary Li, standing at the side, quickly stepped up to greet him.

"Oh? Secretary Luo, what are you doing here?" Wang Zhanting appeared unexpectedly in the North District, surprisingly in Yao Zheng's office, and unexpectedly bumped into Secretary Luo.

"Minister Wang, what a coincidence that you came too? Are you also here to find District Chief Yao?" Secretary Luo stepped forward and extended his hand.

Wang Zhanting shook Secretary Luo's hand. "I've been wondering why I haven't seen you around Secretary Hua these days. So you came here. Do you have business with District Chief Yao? Did I interrupt you?"

"I'm here for Han Fei's case. Minister Wang, this is…"

"Someone submitted something to me, so I came to confirm it with District Chief Yao."

"Just as I've wrapped things up here, I'll take my leave first. District Chief Yao, let's discuss this another day."

"Then I won't see you off!" (To be continued. If you like this work, please visit Qidian (qidian.com) to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets. Your support is my greatest motivation.)
