Chapter 178: Alliance
As Gu Nankai calmed down, Zhang Liang also fell silent. The two of them did not speak anymore. Instead, they each thought about their own ideas and silently finished their cigarettes.
After a long time, Zhang Liang threw away the cigarette butt in his hand, watched the last trace of light go out, and then looked at Gu Nankai: "Don't you believe me? In fact, you can completely believe me, because I found you, and I told you because I trust you."
Gu Nankai's mind was already in a state of confusion. He took a deep breath and looked at Zhang Liang, "How can I be sure whether you and the murderer have reached a consensus ? Is this a plot of yours?"
Zhang Liang was stunned for a moment, then smiled again: "What you said is possible, but in this world, I will not cooperate with anyone. If I want to find the murderer, I will use my own methods without anyone teaching me how to do it. I am an independent person and I hate the feeling of being manipulated by others. It makes me feel insecure."
Zhang Liang's words changed Gu Nankai's opinion of him again. The two looked at each other, and after a while, Gu Nankai smiled softly: "I think so too, you are indeed a very strange person."
He paused, then said, "Tell me, what do you want to do when you come to me?"
Zhang Liang seemed to have expected his approval. He didn't care much about Gu Nankai's opinion of him. When Gu Nankai asked him about himself, he spoke directly: "After my half-month investigation, I found that Zheng Mingrui and Lin Hai had some relationship. So I wondered if Lin Hai was also involved in the incident. Chen Miao's death was probably related to a black market organ trade, and the most critical figure was Chen Miao's father Gao Lipeng. But I have been looking for him for a long time and still can't find any trace of this person. It's as if he disappeared."
Gu Nankai listened to him quietly, then took the cigarette he handed over. The two of them lit up together, took a deep breath, and then said, "We have also investigated Gao Lipeng, but what you said about the relationship between Zheng Mingrui and Lin Hai is beyond my expectation. It is the same as what I thought. The most important thing for us now is to find Gao Lipeng and understand what happened in the first place. I think the murderer will start among these few people."
"I will continue investigating Lin Hai, and I will need your help in other aspects. I hope that we can find out the truth about Chen Miao's death as soon as possible."
Zhang Liang took a deep breath, but his words were filled with a hint of fatigue and pain.
Gu Nankai nodded, and was very satisfied with the idea proposed by Zhang Liang. The two discussed the next specific plan, and then Gu Nankai left the hospital again in a low-key manner.
After Gu Nankai left, Zhang Liang looked at the pile of cigarette butts at his feet, sneered, and muttered: "No one is qualified to talk about revenge. Everyone is the promoter of her death. No one is qualified..."
When Gu Nankai returned to the serious crime team, it was already 1:30 in the afternoon.
Shang Lu performed the autopsy as soon as possible, and Gu Nankai called a meeting with several other people as soon as he returned to the serious crime team.
"Li Meng, tell me about the clues you got." Gu Nankai had already raised the question before he sat down on the chair. As everyone gathered around the conference table, Li Meng had already started talking.
"Boss, I've investigated, and it's similar to what Lin Hai said. The road where Chen Yang had the accident is close to the morgue, which is unlucky for patients and their families. Plus, that place is about to be repaired, so basically no one goes there. As for the rumors, they were all spread privately. As for who was the first person to spread them, it's really hard to find out. But I found a clue. Cao Mo said that at the beginning, the rumor stated that the operating room where Chen Yang died was the same operating room where Chen Miao died. I think this should have been spread by the spreader, with the purpose of causing rumors about this incident and Chen Miao."
"But Chen Miao's death was not a big deal back then. Even if we now bring up the fact that it was the operating room where Chen Miao died, it won't have much effect."
Wu Qingluan frowned and suddenly said something. Seeing everyone looking at her, she quickly said, "I have investigated. As an old doctor of Longhai Hospital, Zhang Haiyuan has a very good reputation in the hospital. Chen Miao was his patient at the time. If he said that he could not survive, few people would have objections to this matter. Moreover, Chen Miao's death was carefully arranged by these people at the time. It should not attract the attention of others, let alone have such a big impact on everyone now. Why do people connect this matter with Chen Miao's death?"
She looked at Gu Nankai and said again: "Obviously, everyone linked Chen Yang's death to Chen Miao's death because they knew that Chen Miao's death might be suspicious. Why is that?"
After Wu Qingluan finished speaking, Gu Nankai thought for a while, and then quickly asked Li Meng: "Li Meng, have you investigated why people linked Chen Yang's death to Chen Miao's death?"
Li Meng quickly said: "I asked everyone why they thought Chen Yang's death was because Chen Miao came to seek revenge."
This question really hits the nail on the head, and everyone was eager to hear what Li Meng had to say.
Li Meng quickly shared his findings: "At first, we couldn't find anything. Everyone kept their mouths shut. Later, I found Cao Mo, and she helped me find some things. The hospital has some patients like Cao Mo who stay in the hospital all year round. One of them lived in the same ward with Chen Miao for a while. But according to her, Chen Miao mentioned that her condition had improved and she had hope of being discharged from the hospital. But not long after, Chen Miao was isolated and put in a separate ward. Except for her attending physician and people with permission, basically no one could see Chen Miao. Not long after, Chen Miao died. Some people think that there is something fishy about Chen Miao's death."
After Li Meng finished speaking, he quickly took a breath and continued, "In fact, this suspicion would not lead everyone to think that Chen Miao's death was suspicious, right? But just half a month ago, many people in the hospital discovered in the middle of the night that some pieces of paper mixed with paper money floated in from the direction of the operating room where Chen Yang died. There were things written on the pieces of paper."
Gu Nankai's brows tightened: "What did you write?"
Li Meng took a breath, looked at everyone's faces, and said solemnly: "Chen Miao's death must be unjust. No one who deserves to die will be spared."
"Damn it!" Gu Nankai's face changed drastically and he slammed the table after hearing this. It was obvious that Lin Hai and the others had deliberately concealed this information from them. Lin Hai was indeed up to something!
Gu Nankai looked angry, and Li Meng understood what was going on. He lowered his voice and said, "I have investigated. These things were all secretly told by the vice president Lin Hai. Although everyone is curious about this matter, Lin Hai promised as long as everyone can keep it secret, everyone will benefit. But the patient did not reveal too much about what the benefits are.
"Damn it! Scum!" Gao Yuan also slammed the table, sneering at Lin Hai's behavior: "I know a little bit about Lin Hai. He has no real talent, but he is very good at flattering others. That's why he got the position of vice president of Longhai Hospital. It seems that this guy is not very clean behind the scenes."
