Chapter 36: Blond Man
Bo's mother was reluctant to leave. After Bobby chased her away several times and even started to cough in anger, Bo's mother stood up reluctantly and looked at her son reluctantly. The unfortunate son said rudely: "You guys go, I'll call you if you need anything."
Mother Bo bargained with Bobby: "I'll let Lisa stay here. She can take care of you if anything happens."
Bobby insisted: "It's enough to have Liang Xi accompany me, cough! cough!"
Father Bo stood at the door of the ward, watching Bobby act recklessly without saying much, and said to Mother Bo: "Let's go."
Liang Xi said respectfully: "Uncle, take care. Aunt, take care."
After watching them leave, Liang Xi returned to the ward and said, "I don't quite understand you." The treatment ward has full-length glass beds and curtains. Bobby's VIP ward is directly opposite the nurses' station, so the nurses can see everything clearly.
Bobby: "I spit out blood."
Liang Xi asked: "Ketchup?"
Bobby: "Blood, pick your nose and hold the blood in your mouth and spit it out." Bobby said it easily, as if it was not the first or second time he had done this.
Liang Xi shook his head: "I don't understand, that's not what I meant."
Bobby: “What is that?”
Liang Xi pulled a chair and sat down: "I guessed. I think your father knows a lot of your secrets, and his behavior is very strange. He is not doting, not strict, and not caring. He seems to be a little apologetic."
Bobby didn't answer. He was in a daze for a long time before he spoke: "I suddenly found that you are a really interesting detective."
Liang Xi was startled and asked, "What about before?"
Bobby: “It’s fun.”
Liang Xi raised his middle finger and fell into thought. Bobby said hurriedly: "Don't think about it, let's eat together."
Liang Xi looked at Bobby suspiciously and said, "Let me ask you a question. You know there are no ghosts in the world, right?"
Bobby denied: "Of course, I have seen my grandfather."
Liang Xi disagreed: "No. When you were ten years old, you claimed to have seen your grandfather on the eve of his funeral. Over the years, everyone has denied seeing ghosts, and you have been exploring haunted houses and have never seen any ghosts. Logically speaking, all this is enough to shake your confidence. Yet you still showed great enthusiasm. Not only did you not lose heart at all, but you became more confident."
Liang Xi: "What makes me even more puzzled is Lily's family. Your starting point is the real estate agent, not the ghost. You have been playing tricks from beginning to end, and have never suspected factors other than humans. So you don't think there are ghosts in this world, or you don't think you can see ghosts. Why?"
Bobby asked back, "Why?"
Liang Xi asked: "Why do you do all this?"
Bobby sneered and said, "I'm mentally ill and I need to see a ghost. Is that enough for you to know?"
Liang Xi said: "I don't play games, bye."
"Hey." Bobby called Liang Xi who was walking to the door of the ward and said, "I don't have any friends."
Liang Xi: “You have.”
Bobby: "My friend only knows Bobby from the Clement family."
Liang Xi said, "You are originally Bobby from the Clement family." She just likes my money. Damn, isn't money a part of you? She also likes that you are a healthy person. Do you want to cut off all your hands and feet to test her sincerity to you?
Bobby sighed helplessly and said, "Well, I must be mentally ill."
Liang Xi was puzzled: "Why?"
Bobby: "This is our family matter, I can't tell you. I treat you as a friend and tell you the truth. I hope you can respect me and keep it a secret."
Liang Xi was suspicious: "Is it because I beat you that you treat me as a friend?" He rolled up his sleeves, ready to beat him up again, maybe he could make him a younger brother.
Bobby went crazy: "Go to hell!"
Liang Xi didn't understand: "Why are you telling me this?"
Bobby looked at Liang Xi and said, "You are the most interesting person I know. You are also very smart, and you don't seem to care much about my family status."
There are several types of people that Bobby knows. The first type is the second generation of the same class, who are either living a life of luxury or working hard to improve themselves. The second type is ordinary people, who are obedient or in awe of Bobby because of the money he has and the power of his family. The third type is people who want to be famous. Bobby feels that each group is boring, and he hopes to have a friend with whom he can chat and even commit crimes together.
After hearing this, Liang Xi said disdainfully: "You are crazy. You rich kids have nothing better to do. Since you think there is nothing fishy, we will just do it casually to cooperate with your mental illness."
Bobby waved his hands, "No, no, it's not. Do you know the Blondie?"
Liang Xi immediately fell silent, trying to be silent, but the muscles on his face betrayed him. He was trying to hold back his laughter. He already understood what was going on. Bobby fantasized about becoming a superhero, calling himself Blondie, and defending world justice. For example, he caught the hateful real estate agent at Lily's house, and he exposed the haunted house scam.
Bobby grabbed the tissue and threw it at him: "I'm serious, okay?"
Liang Xi tried not to laugh: "If you reveal your identity as the Blond Man, I think you won't have to play tricks to be considered a mental patient." There are indeed Blond Man on the Internet, as well as Cockroach Man, Masked Man, Underwear Man, Mosquito Man, and so many others. Without exception, no one takes them seriously. Blond Man? It sounds so shameful.
Bobby was not convinced: "Not counting the real estate agent, I have uncovered five scams and assisted the police in arresting six suspects. I also helped Liverpool police catch a fugitive last year."
Liang Xi was suspicious: "Just you?" Do you have the guts to be beaten half to death by me?
Bobby: "I have bodyguards."
It's quite interesting to be honest. If we exclude the factor of seeing ghosts, the process of Bobby arresting the real estate agent shows that he is a smart and well-planned person.
Bobby said, "I need to see ghosts at least once or twice a month. I will choose suspicious haunted houses. Firstly, it can prove that I am mentally ill, and secondly, I can combat possible crimes."
Liang Xi asked: "What's suspicious about Maria Hospital?"
Bobby: "My aunt was hospitalized the day before yesterday. After I visited her, one of my bodyguards told me that the nurse in her forties was a police officer. I didn't care , but when you mentioned Maria Hospital, I decided to check if the nurse was still there."
Liang Xi looked towards the nurses' station, where a red-haired nurse in her forties was signing documents while chatting with a younger nurse.
Bobby said: "The police are undercover in the hospital, which means..."
Liang Xi replied: "It means you are meddling in other people's business."
Bobby was so angry that he was speechless.
Liang Xi said: "The Blond Man should not interfere with the police's investigation, but should fight the crimes that the police ignore." Liang Xi also found that this nurse was not likely to work in the ward on the third floor. He believed that the bodyguard and Bobby were telling the truth, but he was more sensible than Bobby and would not interfere with the police's investigation. Besides, even if he helped the police, he would not get any bonus.
Bobby felt that what Liang Xi said made sense: "Go and help me get discharged from the hospital. I'll take a few days off and then find a haunted house to play in together."
