Chapter 767: I Can’t Control Others, I Only Care About You
“We’ll get him to the hospital immediately.”
Xu Che was after the motorcyclist, so Sheng Xiao went up to help Old Cheng up and said to Mu Qiqi, “You’re a medical student, so you should know where he was hit. Let’s see if we can deal with him first.”
Mu Qiqi saw blood coming out of the corner of Old Cheng’s mouth and did not dare to move him. “No, there’s an organ injury in his abdomen. We need to do an abdominal CT right away.”
Sheng Xiao sped up when he heard the words “organ injury”. He did not even realize that his hand, which was holding the steering wheel, was trembling.
If Old Cheng had not called Tang Yan, Mu Qiqi would have…
The consequences…
He could not even think about it.
“These people are simply insane!” Mu Qiqi took out her phone in a panic and called Tang Yan.
This was the first time she had seen her colleague suffer such a serious injury.
“The culprit wants to stop your investigation. Follow me back to Jianchuan this afternoon.”
“Xiao Xiao.”
“The situation now is not under your control,” Sheng Xiao said coldly. “You’re a forensic doctor. Why are you out in the field?”
Mu Qiqi did not say anything. She just kept comforting Old Cheng.
Soon, the two of them sent Old Cheng to the emergency room of a nearby hospital. After the hospital did a check-up, they immediately sent Old Cheng to the operating theater. Mu Qiqi took the CT film and took a look. She knew how serious his injury was.
Many organs in the abdominal cavity had been damaged. Among the injuries sustained were ruptured liver, bleeding, stomach, and kidney injuries of varying degrees. One could imagine how severe the impact was.
An hour after Old Cheng entered the operating theater, Xu Che arrived at the hospital. He shook his head at Sheng Xiao. “I didn’t manage to catch him. He’s a professional, familiar with the terrain, and his skills are extraordinary.”
Sheng Xiao did not say anything. He just looked at Mu Qiqi.
Mu Qiqi sat on the chair and did not know what to say. She just grabbed Sheng Xiao’s hand.
She had been investigating cases with Tang Yan for a long time, but she had never encountered such a dangerous situation. She had never come into contact with such a dangerous case.
“After Old Cheng’s surgery, I’ve already arranged for someone to send a plane to transfer him back to Jianchuan. At the same time, you have to come back with me,” Sheng Xiao ordered Mu Qiqi.
“I… want to wait for Captain Tang to come over.”
“Madam, last night, someone, probably the same man, came to your room to cause trouble. However, thanks to the president being in your room, he didn’t succeed. So, you can’t help anyone by staying here. This group of people dared to openly attack the police, which means that there’s someone behind everything. It’d be better to listen to the president and stop insisting,” Xu Che advised in a low voice.
Mu Qiqi didn’t speak for a long time after hearing this. After a long while, she said, “I just feel that it’s a little ironic.”
“This is J City. A strong dragon can’t suppress a local snake. Even if the CEO is here, he can’t do anything.”
“I understand.” Seems like this matter really had to be discussed with Tang Yan back in Jianchuan.
After Tang Yan received the news, he immediately told Mu Qiqi to return to Jianchuan.
That place should no longer be investigated.
An suicide case was being investigated and someone was trying to stop the police from investigating. Could this explain the nature of this matter?
Tang Yan immediately went to the chief’s office and told him about Old Cheng’s serious injury in J City.
The chief sighed and said helplessly, “Tang Yan, it’s better to close the case by suicide.”
“Chief.”
“I know what you want to say, but we can’t continue the investigation now. The more you investigate, the more vigilant the other party will be. Rather than that, it’s better to close the case by suicide and investigate in secret. That way, they will relax and maybe give themselves away.
“Do you think that I don’t want to give Bai Xinyi justice? Even though I’m the bureau chief, there are some things that I can’t do.
“Let go of this matter first. I promise you that I will investigate thoroughly. When the time is ripe, I will give you an explanation!”
With the assurance of the bureau chief, Tang Yan nodded. He abhorred evil, especially when his subordinates sustained injuries from encounters with it. He wanted to venture into this dangerous place even more, but… He was married, with a child. If it was like seven years ago, then what awaited him would probably be the destruction of his family.
..
In the evening, Old Cheng was sent back to Jianchuan by a special plane. He was protected in his own territory.
Mu Qiqi also followed Sheng Xiao back to Jianchuan. She wanted to give Tang Yan an explanation first.
“These are all the results Old Cheng and I obtained in the past day and night. We found two suspicious people. Before we could do anything else, Old Cheng…”
“That’s enough. Thank you for your hard work. The chief has requested for the case to be closed,” Tang Yan said to Mu Qiqi. “Don’t take Old Cheng’s matter to heart. Being a police officer is full of… merits. It’s just that it might frighten your family.”
“Really? Do you want the case to be closed? Bai Xinyi died in vain.”
“We all know that, but we can’t act like headless chickens. We need to take a long-term view on this matter. In short, you don’t have to worry about it. I’ve also promised President Sheng that I won’t borrow you to investigate cases while you’re studying.”
With that, Tang Yan patted Mu Qiqi on the shoulder.
“Let’s go back.”
“Those women who allegedly committed suicide might just be sacrificial victims. Mama Bai is the middleman. She didn’t even spare her own daughter.” This was the line of thought that Mu Qiqi had organized in her head.
Before she left, she felt that there was still a need to tell Tang Yan.
Tang Yan nodded, expressing his affirmation toward Mu Qiqi’s deduction.
In fact, they gradually understood what was going on, but there were some things that could not be confronted and confirmed directly.
“Then, you guys take good care of Senior Brother Cheng.”
After saying this, Mu Qiqi left the branch office because she believed that Tang Yan would definitely find the mastermind of this matter. Definitely.
Tang Yan and the bureau chief wanted to go through the dark lines and find an informant to get close to Su Hong and that man called Zhou Qin.
However, on the surface, the Jianchuan branch office had to treat this matter as if it had already passed.
Therefore, in the evening, the branch office announced that Bai Xinyi had committed suicide and handed over the case. Everything that needed to be collected for this matter had been prepared and were in Tang Yan’s hands.
This time, he had to play the long game and catch the big fish.
Seeing such an outcome, Mu Qiqi once again felt that the living were scarier than the dead.
Actually, when she thought about it seriously, she could understand why Sheng Xiao was so worried. If he had not come over last night…
Then, the person lying in the hospital right now would be her.
After thinking it through, Mu Qiqi quietly went to the study. When she saw that a certain someone was busy, she silently hugged him from behind. “I never knew that being a police officer would be so scary.”
“Everyone knows about it, but still some people insist on doing it because everyone knows that someone has to do it.”
Sheng Xiao stopped what he was doing after hearing that and said indifferently, “I can’t control others. I only care about you. All that talk about being wise and righteous has nothing to do with me.”
