Yan Xie finally knew why he always felt that Bu Wei looked weird.
At the hospital entrance.
Big G slowly stopped by the side of the road. Jiang Ting swallowed the last custard bun and exhaled contentedly.
Yan Xie turned off the engine but didn’t rush to get out of the car. He stared at Jiang Ting’s mouth without blinking, until he saw that he had completely swallowed the sweet buns and drank the last half cup of warm soy milk. He swallowed and looked away uncomfortably: “I’ll take you to eat after I finish my work, okay.”
Jiang Ting said, “No need. It’s the first time I’ve eaten two buns completely since I met you. It’s very rare.” After saying that, he got out of the car as if nothing had happened.
Yan Xie: “……”
Jianning’s former richest heir was thunderstruck and sat stiffly on the spot. His expression was like he had just received a Pegasus Meteor Fist head on, and the fragile male self-esteem shattered into countless pieces.
“…Let’s make it clear first. The first time that custard bun was thrown into the trash when you said it was cold, how could it be considered my responsibility?! And last time when you were eating the bean paste bun, you fell asleep halfway. Now, how do I know that you want to keep it and continue to eat it when you wake up…”
In the corridor outside the ward, Yan Xie frequently turned back to argue while striding forward. But Jiang Ting always looked straight ahead, with his hands in his trouser pockets. There was a kind of calmness and serenity on his face as if he regarded everything like a dog.
“Hey, Brother Yan! Consultant Lu!” Gao Panqing was waiting at the end of the corridor, and hurried up to meet them: “You guys are here!
“You don’t talk as if I never let you eat. Am I such a man who doesn’t care about his family? I’m just…” Yan Xie turned around, his face full of complaints, “What’s the matter, Lao Gao?”
Gao Panqing was taken aback: “You guys are… you had a plan?
Yan Xie said: “You still have the sense to ask. When your unfortunate phone call came, I was planning to take your Consultant Lu to a two-person Michelin candlelight dinner. It’s all messed up because of you. Look, Consultant Lu is making a fuss.”
Gao Panqing’s first reaction was: What, brother Yan’s friend won’t help in solving the case?
“You listen to his nonsense.” Jiang Ting said helplessly, “Where is the victim?”
Gao Panqing said in a hurry: “In the ward, come, come.”
“Why are you staying outside?” Yan Xie asked disapprovingly.
“Hey, I’d also like to sit comfortably in the ward, but the little girl in question doesn’t want to. Who knows what’s bothering her. As soon as she saw a stranger, it was like she was about to be molested, so she couldn’t answer the questions at all——fortunately, I’m wearing a police uniform today, otherwise, I’d have been caught as a rogue and sent to the Public Security Bureau just now!”
Yan Xie and Jiang Ting turned their heads at the same time, and both glanced at Gao Panqing suspiciously.
It just so happened that a little nurse was passing by, she squinted her eyes at him, and Lao Gao spread his hands innocently: “Did you see her? It was she who asked me just now if this police uniform was a high imitation bought from Taobao for 200 yuan. What do you think I can do!”
Yan Xie: “……”
The little nurse passed by them and walked away suspiciously.
This week, Bu Wei just woke up and slept, slept more and woke up less. The city bureau was anxious to ask questions, so they could only send the police to guard day and night. However, even when Bu Wei was awake, her mental state was very worrying; often talking in her sleep, shivering and trembling, and occasionally muttering illogical sentences.
No doctor, no matter how brilliant, can specifically explain what symptoms the human brain will produce when it is greatly stimulated. So this week, the investigation on TianZong Mountain has almost fallen into a quagmire.
When they came to the door of the ward, the door happened to open, and a fat man in a suit came out. When he looked up to see them, he was shocked: “Yan, Yan… Vice-Captain Yan?”
——Bu Wei’s uncle, Wang Xingye.
Yan Xie stopped and seemed to feel a little interesting: “What’s the matter, Boss Wang, you are surprised to see me?
“Oh, that really surprised me”. Wang Xingye rubbed his hands, and the flesh on his face squeezed together because of the smile: “I didn’t expect the police comrade to be able to rescue my niece. That’s really too hard. You have been keeping a watch on her for so many days——I didn’t have time to thank Vice-Captain Yan…”
“No need to thank. I did what I should have done.” Yan Xie raised his chin toward the ward: “Have you been taking care of your niece these past few days?”
“Then what else can I do, she didn’t have any other relatives or friends.” Fatty’s face became bitter again: “Fortunately, the nurse is willing to take care of her, otherwise how can I, a grown man, take care of her? Even if a nurse is called, it will take a while. Where can I go?”
Yan Xie nodded understandingly.
“When this is over, I must invite all the police comrades to drink!” Wang Xingye let out a long sigh: “Hey, you don’t have to say anything. I have been busy all day and I haven’t eaten yet, so I’ll go have a meal first. “
Yan Xie sent him away in a very considerate and reasonable manner.
The figure of the fat man disappeared into the crowd at the end of the corridor. Yan Xie asked Gao Panqing in a low voice, “That Buwei can’t meet strangers?”
“It was fine a few days ago, but the last two days have been extremely unstable. The doctor said something about mental stimulation, but I don’t quite understand the terminology. Why?”
“Then how did she react when she saw this person named Wang?”
Gao Panqing was taken aback, and hesitantly said: “I haven’t heard anything unusual…at least not today after his arrival. But when she saw me, she was so frightened like she saw a ghost. I didn’t even dare to stay in the ward.”
Yan Xie was thoughtful but didn’t say a word.
The single ward was snow-white. Bu Wei had just taken the medicine and lay quietly on the bed.
The sixteen-year-old girl had snow-white skin, and dark eyebrows, her silk like black hair was spread on the pillow, and her lips, nose, and cheeks were as clear and beautiful as a meticulous painting; if someone drew this scene and named it, It would be hard to come up with a more appropriate name other than Sleeping Beauty.
Jiang Ting only glanced at her, and then sat indifferently by the window. Yan Xie stood in front of the hospital bed. He rubbed his chin and observed carefully for a long time. Even Gao Panqing became a little scared and couldn’t help but complain in his heart. Then he suddenly heard a sentence from Yan Xie:
“This girl looks like…”
Gao Panqing was horrified. He said in his heart: Brother Yan, I beg you. Although it is not against the law if you are over the age of fourteen. In case you really want to say something that shouldn’t be said, should I and Consultant Lu pretend that we didn’t hear anything or not?
“…did she have a facelift?”
Gao Panqing was caught off guard: “Huh?”
Yan Xie raised his head innocently and looked at Gao Panqing who was stunned.
Yan Xie, policeman, Leo. He doesn’t have a straight man’s life but has a straight man’s disease. He firmly believes that there are only two colours of lipstick in this world, pink and red. Coloured contact lenses are another name for contact lenses. The actresses on TV are all natural and do not use hyaluronic acid. Internet celebrities with two metres long legs, no matter from which angle, are born good-looking.
When he asked such a question, Gao Panqing’s heart was deeply shocked.
“Where do you think it’s not like the original?” Gao Panqing couldn’t help asking.
“I don’t know,” Yan Xie was also very confused, “I just feel a little weird. What do you think Consultant Lu?”
Jiang Ting was sitting in the armchair, slowly digesting the two sweet buns he had just eaten, and said, “I haven’t studied about the medical beauty treatment…”
Yan Xie: “???”
“Also,” Jiang Ting said euphemistically, “You stared at a face for five minutes just now, it’s normal to feel a little weird.
Jiang Ting’s voice didn’t even fall when Yan Xie suddenly came over, grabbed his shoulder and forced him to raise his head. Then he stared at him for a long time.
Jiang Ting: “……”
Gao Panqing: “……”
The ward was filled with a quiet and weird atmosphere. After a long time, Yan Xie finally let go of Jiang Ting, while Lao Gao’s eyes were about to fall out of the sockets. He seemed a little satisfied: “I don’t think it’s weird.”
Then he added: “It’s pretty good.”
Judging from Gao Panqing’s face, what he was most worried about at the moment was that Consultant Lu would suddenly pick up a chair and beat Yan Xie up, or call 110 and ask the police to handcuff Yan Xie away on the grounds of being a hooligan.
There was a slight murmur from the hospital bed, and Bu Wei woke up.
Consultant Lu didn’t have time to beat vice-captain Yan. The three of them looked over at the same time and saw that Bu Wei’s eyes slowly opened, and she looked around very consciously as if looking for someone. Then her eyes fell on the faces of Gao Panqing, Yan Xie, and Jing Ting in turn.
“Bu Wei?” Yan Xie confirmed.
“……”
“I’m Yan Xie, Deputy head of the Criminal Investigation Unit of Jianning City Public Security Bureau.” He took out the police card from his back pocket and said in a slow tone, “Regarding the matter on Tianzong Mountain, there are some questions I want to ask you.”
Bu Wei’s eyes trembled slightly as if some kind of deep-rooted suspicion and fear were slowly recovering from the bottom of her heart. Then she shifted her gaze from Yan Xie’s face to Jiang Ting’s, behaving as if she didn’t see Yan Xie’s friendly expression and the police card in his hands.
“Classmate Bu Wei?” Yan Xie said softly, “Don’t be afraid, we are the police. You are safe.”
What he did not expect was that just after the voice fell, Bu Wei got up with a brisk movement, as if she was whipped by an electric shock!
Gao Panqing: “Brother Yan, wait, this situation is not very good…”
Before the last word fell, suddenly Bu Wei clasped her hands tightly on her chest and screamed with all her might!
The cry was so sharp and miserable that their first reaction was to take two steps backwards, and even Jiang Ting suddenly stood up from his seat.
“AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH——”
“It’s okay Bu Wei! You are already safe! Calm down!” Yan Xie thought about what was going on and forcibly shouted in a low voice, wanting to step forward and hold down the frightened little girl. But Bu Wei screamed and kicked her legs back desperately. The nightdress on her body pushed upward because of her movements, revealing her bare white and tender thighs. Yan Xie immediately gasped, and stood abruptly. He didn’t dare to go forward.
There was a roar in the corridor, and then the nurse rushed in nervously: “What’s going on? What’s going on? What happened?!”
“A!!” Bu Wei covered her ears, her hair was dishevelled, and she pushed the quilt into a mess. Her whole person was acting crazy. The extremely penetrating sharp voice ripped through everyone’s eardrums and echoed far away in the corridor. Many family members in the nearby wards stuck their heads out, watching the movement here in astonishment.
“Don’t come here! Don’t come here!!”
“Don’t be afraid, don’t be afraid. Sister Nurse is here, it’s alright…”
“Don’t come here! Ah ah ah——!”
Bu Wei’s soft nightdress could not cover anything at all. It was quickly torn apart by herself, revealing a large part of her beautiful snow-white shoulders. There was a small red mole on the shoulder, which immediately attracted a lot of attention. The nurse quickly forcibly held her in her arms to comfort her, and it took a long time for the girl’s screams to gradually subside, turning into loud sobbing and trembling.
“It’s okay, it’s all over, the police won’t hurt you…” The nurse whispered comfort as she helped Bu Wei straighten her nightdress. Then she took out a tissue to wipe the mottled tears on her face.
Yan Xie looked at this scene, and from his angle, he could just catch a glimpse of Bu Wei’s half-covered cheek in the nurse’s arms.
It is always difficult to see someone’s charm clearly when they are unconscious, but Bu Wei is now awake. When she is not struggling to go crazy, her clear eyebrows and facial features suddenly make his heart flutter slightly, and suddenly a vague feeling emerges.
The facial features felt a bit…
A bit like…
The nurse was afraid that Bu Wei would continue to be stimulated and kept signalling the police to go out first. But she didn’t expect to see Yan Xie staring at the girl without blinking when she turned around.
“Cough cough!” The nurse was furious.
“Brother Yan,” Gao Panqing reminded in a low voice, “Brother Yan! Hey!”
Yan Xie came back to his senses, and only then did he realise his gaffe: “Oh, I just…”
“Can you leave the ward first? It’s time to change the patient’s dressing. You can come in later!” After the nurse reprimanded them with a stern face, she added in a low voice with a volume that only the people present here could hear: “What inner quality?”
Yan Xie: “……”
“She did the same thing before?! The doctor can’t explain it?!” Yan Xie asked while suppressing his anger.
The three policemen were forced to exit the ward and stood in the corridor, with countless suspicious glances lingering around them. The whispers of family members in the nearby wards could be heard endlessly. Gao Panqing flicked the epaulette deliberately and fearfully and then whispered: “How can I know this. Xiao Zhang and the others only told me that she was trembling and couldn’t speak, but they didn’t say that this girl can scream to this decibel level. This is clearly a gentle madman turning into a martial madman.”
Yan Xie seemed to remember something: “Is the gynaecological examination done?”
“It’s done!” Gao Panqing lowered his voice: “——No rupture was found.”
There’s really no way to explain it.
Yan Xie had no choice but to take a breath. He just turned his face to see Jiang Ting wearing a mask and standing under the corridor window against the wall. Judging from the exposed upper half of his face, he couldn’t tell whether he was happy or angry. But there was a little bit of indifference as if he didn’t care about anything around him.
“Hey,” Yan Xie moved a few steps closer to him, and explained in a low voice, a little embarrassed, “I just… I really…”
Jiang Ting hooked his fingers.
Deputy Yan immediately leaned forward, only to hear Jiang Ting say something with his hands half-covering his mouth. He said softly, “Under the age of eighteen is immoral…”
“Hey!!”
Yan Xie became flustered and exasperated, before he could explain anything, the door of the ward opened again. The nurse walked out with a teaching director like face, and before the police could speak, she said: “The little girl’s mental state is not very stable. These days, except for her uncle, she will be stimulated by any other male just by looking at their faces. She can’t stand the three of you men huddling in the ward. I suggest that if you want to collect evidence, you should wait.”
Yan Xie said coldly: “We can wait, but the procedures of solving the case can’t wait. The police can’t wait to arrest the prisoner because of her. In front of the case, the victim has to cooperate with the investigation honestly!”
“Then call a policewoman!” The nurse didn’t show any signs of weakness: “Don’t you have a policewoman? A bunch of big men, crowding the ward all day long. What’s the point of this?!”
Yan Xie didn’t bother to refute the second half of the sentence, but the first half of her sentence stopped him.
In Bu Wei’s situation, they can probably start questioning immediately when she wakes up. They just have to call a policewoman from the office, but they couldn’t find a particularly suitable and experienced person right now. In the fieldwork team, there are only two official female police officers, one is escorting in the field, and the other is six-month pregnant and was at home to protect the fetus because of the fear of miscarriage ——usually, it is okay to treat people like cattles, but at a time like this, if you assign tasks to a pregnant woman, not to mention whether there will be an accident, Yan Xie himself is too embarrassed.
He took a deep breath, and suddenly a flash of light flashed in his mind. He asked Gao Panqing, “Where’s Han Xiaomei?”
“Ah?”
“Why haven’t I seen her since I came back from Jiangyang, where is the person? Resigned?”
“Oh, she asked for leave this morning.” Gao Panqing said, “Menstrual period, dysmenorrhea. You don’t see that face, it was so white that it was scary.”
“……” Yan Xie said in disbelief, “Will buying a box of painkillers kill her?!”
Gao Panqing did not dare to make a sound.
“If she is pregnant and gives birth to a child, maternity leave is fine, and I will approve the nursing leave. But I know that the menstrual period is once a month. Is it possible to grant her 12 dysmenorrhea leave every year? Then at that time when I was recruiting an intern, why didn’t I listen to the police academy’s suggestion that boys will do?!” Yan Xie’s index finger impatiently clicked on his cell phone, and he motioned to Gao Panqing: “Call! Call her over!”
Gao Panqing burst into tears, because he was unable to protect his interns, and can only act cowardly.
“You really…” Jiang Ting put a hand on his forehead.
Yan Yie’s anger remained undisturbed. He stood upright in front of the hospital corridor window, with broad shoulders and long legs, and one hand in his pocket, like a ruthless and neat poplar. He completely disregarded the nurse’s angry remarks and snorted: “It’s none of my business. If you want to take the benefit of being in the fieldwork team, you have to work according to the standard of the field team. There are too many boys in the police academy who broke their heads for her internship position. If she is willing to transfer back to the office, then I have no opinion. I guarantee that there will be no need to add shifts every day from nine to six. There is no reason for sugarcane to be sweet.”
Jiang Ting murmured: “So that’s why, you are really single until now.”
Yan Xie was silent at first and seemed to endure it. The two stood silently in front of the hospital window for a few minutes, only to hear him suddenly say: “No.”
Jiang Ting: “?”
Yan Xie seemed to be looking out of the window intently, but out of the corner of his eyes, he looked at Jiang Ting again and again. After a while, he said, “It’s because I haven’t met someone I really like.”
Jiang Ting: “……”
The atmosphere suddenly became a little strange, and even the breeze from the window became particularly obvious, itching people’s necks.
“…I’m going to the bathroom,” Jiang Ting squeezed out, trying his best to sound like nothing had happened, and hurried away with his head down.
Yan Xie watched his back disappear into the distance without blinking. After a while, he sighed in anxiety or anticipation.
Before Gao Panqing came back, the nurse had already left. Yan Xie stood by himself for a while and suddenly felt bored. So he turned back to the door of the ward and peered in through the glass.
Bu Wei had calmed down, and now she was leaning on the head of the hospital bed alone, staring at her knees with her head down. She looked very weak and didn’t know whether she was thinking about something or just in a daze.
Yan Xie narrowed his eyes and looked at the side of her face, that vague and weird feeling came back again.
But why? he thought.
What is this feeling? Why doesn’t everyone think something is wrong?
Bu Wei moved, raised her head and looked forward dazedly. After a while, she suddenly turned her head as if she noticed something, and met with Yan Xie’s scrutinising line of sight.
The two of them stared at each other, stunned at the same time, and then the lightning flashed in Yan Xie’s mind!
——Yes, he knew why he always felt weird.
The girl’s face from a certain angle, especially when looked up from the bottom, itlooked like Jiang Ting!
Yan Xie finally knew why he always felt that Bu Wei looked weird.
At the hospital entrance.
Big G slowly stopped by the side of the road. Jiang Ting swallowed the last custard bun and exhaled contentedly.
Yan Xie turned off the engine but didn’t rush to get out of the car. He stared at Jiang Ting’s mouth without blinking, until he saw that he had completely swallowed the sweet buns and drank the last half cup of warm soy milk. He swallowed and looked away uncomfortably: “I’ll take you to eat after I finish my work, okay.”
Jiang Ting said, “No need. It’s the first time I’ve eaten two buns completely since I met you. It’s very rare.” After saying that, he got out of the car as if nothing had happened.
Yan Xie: “……”
Jianning’s former richest heir was thunderstruck and sat stiffly on the spot. His expression was like he had just received a Pegasus Meteor Fist head on, and the fragile male self-esteem shattered into countless pieces.
“…Let’s make it clear first. The first time that custard bun was thrown into the trash when you said it was cold, how could it be considered my responsibility?!

In the corridor outside the ward, Yan Xie frequently turned back to argue while striding forward. But Jiang Ting always looked straight ahead, with his hands in his trouser pockets. There was a kind of calmness and serenity on his face as if he regarded everything like a dog.
“Hey, Brother Yan! Consultant Lu!” Gao Panqing was waiting at the end of the corridor, and hurried up to meet them: “You guys are here!
“You don’t talk as if I never let you eat. Am I such a man who doesn’t care about his family? I’m just…” Yan Xie turned around, his face full of complaints, “What’s the matter, Lao Gao?”
Gao Panqing was taken aback: “You guys are… you had a plan?
Yan Xie said: “You still have the sense to ask. When your unfortunate phone call came, I was planning to take your Consultant Lu to a two-person Michelin candlelight dinner. It’s all messed up because of you. Look, Consultant Lu is making a fuss.”
Gao Panqing’s first reaction was: What, brother Yan’s friend won’t help in solving the case?
“You listen to his nonsense.” Jiang Ting said helplessly, “Where is the victim?”
Gao Panqing said in a hurry: “In the ward, come, come.”
“Why are you staying outside?” Yan Xie asked disapprovingly.
“Hey, I’d also like to sit comfortably in the ward, but the little girl in question doesn’t want to. Who knows what’s bothering her. As soon as she saw a stranger, it was like she was about to be molested, so she couldn’t answer the questions at all——fortunately, I’m wearing a police uniform today, otherwise, I’d have been caught as a rogue and sent to the Public Security Bureau just now!”
Yan Xie and Jiang Ting turned their heads at the same time, and both glanced at Gao Panqing suspiciously.
It just so happened that a little nurse was passing by, she squinted her eyes at him, and Lao Gao spread his hands innocently: “Did you see her? It was she who asked me just now if this police uniform was a high imitation bought from Taobao for 200 yuan. What do you think I can do!”
Yan Xie: “……”
The little nurse passed by them and walked away suspiciously.
This week, Bu Wei just woke up and slept, slept more and woke up less. The city bureau was anxious to ask questions, so they could only send the police to guard day and night.

When they came to the door of the ward, the door happened to open, and a fat man in a suit came out. When he looked up to see them, he was shocked: “Yan, Yan… Vice-Captain Yan?”
——Bu Wei’s uncle, Wang Xingye.
Yan Xie stopped and seemed to feel a little interesting: “What’s the matter, Boss Wang, you are surprised to see me?
“Oh, that really surprised me”. Wang Xingye rubbed his hands, and the flesh on his face squeezed together because of the smile: “I didn’t expect the police comrade to be able to rescue my niece. That’s really too hard. You have been keeping a watch on her for so many days——I didn’t have time to thank Vice-Captain Yan…”
“No need to thank. I did what I should have done.” Yan Xie raised his chin toward the ward: “Have you been taking care of your niece these past few days?”
“Then what else can I do, she didn’t have any other relatives or friends.” Fatty’s face became bitter again: “Fortunately, the nurse is willing to take care of her, otherwise how can I, a grown man, take care of her? Even if a nurse is called, it will take a while. Where can I go?”
Yan Xie nodded understandingly.
“When this is over, I must invite all the police comrades to drink!” Wang Xingye let out a long sigh: “Hey, you don’t have to say anything. I have been busy all day and I haven’t eaten yet, so I’ll go have a meal first. “
Yan Xie sent him away in a very considerate and reasonable manner.

Jiang Ting’s voice didn’t even fall when Yan Xie suddenly came over, grabbed his shoulder and forced him to raise his head. Then he stared at him for a long time.
Jiang Ting: “……”
Gao Panqing: “……”
The ward was filled with a quiet and weird atmosphere. After a long time, Yan Xie finally let go of Jiang Ting, while Lao Gao’s eyes were about to fall out of the sockets. He seemed a little satisfied: “I don’t think it’s weird.”
Then he added: “It’s pretty good.”
Judging from Gao Panqing’s face, what he was most worried about at the moment was that Consultant Lu would suddenly pick up a chair and beat Yan Xie up, or call 110 and ask the police to handcuff Yan Xie away on the grounds of being a hooligan.

Consultant Lu didn’t have time to beat vice-captain Yan. The three of them looked over at the same time and saw that Bu Wei’s eyes slowly opened, and she looked around very consciously as if looking for someone. Then her eyes fell on the faces of Gao Panqing, Yan Xie, and Jing Ting in turn.
“Bu Wei?” Yan Xie confirmed.
“……”
“I’m Yan Xie, Deputy head of the Criminal Investigation Unit of Jianning City Public Security Bureau.” He took out the police card from his back pocket and said in a slow tone, “Regarding the matter on Tianzong Mountain, there are some questions I want to ask you.”
Bu Wei’s eyes trembled slightly as if some kind of deep-rooted suspicion and fear were slowly recovering from the bottom of her heart. Then she shifted her gaze from Yan Xie’s face to Jiang Ting’s, behaving as if she didn’t see Yan Xie’s friendly expression and the police card in his hands.
“Classmate Bu Wei?” Yan Xie said softly, “Don’t be afraid, we are the police. You are safe.”
What he did not expect was that just after the voice fell, Bu Wei got up with a brisk movement, as if she was whipped by an electric shock!
Gao Panqing: “Brother Yan, wait, this situation is not very good…”
Before the last word fell, suddenly Bu Wei clasped her hands tightly on her chest and screamed with all her might!
The cry was so sharp and miserable that their first reaction was to take two steps backwards, and even Jiang Ting suddenly stood up from his seat.
“AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH——”
“It’s okay Bu Wei! You are already safe! Calm down!” Yan Xie thought about what was going on and forcibly shouted in a low voice, wanting to step forward and hold down the frightened little girl. But Bu Wei screamed and kicked her legs back desperately. The nightdress on her body pushed upward because of her movements, revealing her bare white and tender thighs. Yan Xie immediately gasped, and stood abruptly. He didn’t dare to go forward.
There was a roar in the corridor, and then the nurse rushed in nervously: “What’s going on? What’s going on? What happened?!”

The extremely penetrating sharp voice ripped through everyone’s eardrums and echoed far away in the corridor. Many family members in the nearby wards stuck their heads out, watching the movement here in astonishment.
“Don’t come here! Don’t come here!!”
“Don’t be afraid, don’t be afraid. Sister Nurse is here, it’s alright…”
“Don’t come here! Ah ah ah——!”
Bu Wei’s soft nightdress could not cover anything at all. It was quickly torn apart by herself, revealing a large part of her beautiful snow-white shoulders. There was a small red mole on the shoulder, which immediately attracted a lot of attention. The nurse quickly forcibly held her in her arms to comfort her, and it took a long time for the girl’s screams to gradually subside, turning into loud sobbing and trembling.
“It’s okay, it’s all over, the police won’t hurt you…” The nurse whispered comfort as she helped Bu Wei straighten her nightdress. Then she took out a tissue to wipe the mottled tears on her face.
Yan Xie looked at this scene, and from his angle, he could just catch a glimpse of Bu Wei’s half-covered cheek in the nurse’s arms.
It is always difficult to see someone’s charm clearly when they are unconscious, but Bu Wei is now awake. When she is not struggling to go crazy, her clear eyebrows and facial features suddenly make his heart flutter slightly, and suddenly a vague feeling emerges.
The facial features felt a bit…
A bit like…
The nurse was afraid that Bu Wei would continue to be stimulated and kept signalling the police to go out first. But she didn’t expect to see Yan Xie staring at the girl without blinking when she turned around.
“Cough cough!” The nurse was furious.
“Brother Yan,” Gao Panqing reminded in a low voice, “Brother Yan! Hey!”
Yan Xie came back to his senses, and only then did he realise his gaffe: “Oh, I just…”
“Can you leave the ward first? It’s time to change the patient’s dressing. You can come in later!” After the nurse reprimanded them with a stern face, she added in a low voice with a volume that only the people present here could hear: “What inner quality?”
Yan Xie: “……”
“She did the same thing before?! The doctor can’t explain it?!” Yan Xie asked while suppressing his anger.
The three policemen were forced to exit the ward and stood in the corridor, with countless suspicious glances lingering around them. The whispers of family members in the nearby wards could be heard endlessly. Gao Panqing flicked the epaulette deliberately and fearfully and then whispered: “How can I know this. Xiao Zhang and the others only told me that she was trembling and couldn’t speak, but they didn’t say that this girl can scream to this decibel level. This is clearly a gentle madman turning into a martial madman.”
Yan Xie seemed to remember something: “Is the gynaecological examination done?”
“It’s done!” Gao Panqing lowered his voice: “——No rupture was found.”
There’s really no way to explain it.
Yan Xie had no choice but to take a breath. He just turned his face to see Jiang Ting wearing a mask and standing under the corridor window against the wall. Judging from the exposed upper half of his face, he couldn’t tell whether he was happy or angry. But there was a little bit of indifference as if he didn’t care about anything around him.
“Hey,” Yan Xie moved a few steps closer to him, and explained in a low voice, a little embarrassed, “I just… I really…”
Jiang Ting hooked his fingers.
Deputy Yan immediately leaned forward, only to hear Jiang Ting say something with his hands half-covering his mouth. He said softly, “Under the age of eighteen is immoral…”
“Hey!!”
Yan Xie became flustered and exasperated, before he could explain anything, the door of the ward opened again. The nurse walked out with a teaching director like face, and before the police could speak, she said: “The little girl’s mental state is not very stable. These days, except for her uncle, she will be stimulated by any other male just by looking at their faces. She can’t stand the three of you men huddling in the ward. I suggest that if you want to collect evidence, you should wait.”
Yan Xie said coldly: “We can wait, but the procedures of solving the case can’t wait. The police can’t wait to arrest the prisoner because of her. In front of the case, the victim has to cooperate with the investigation honestly!”
“Then call a policewoman!” The nurse didn’t show any signs of weakness: “Don’t you have a policewoman? A bunch of big men, crowding the ward all day long. What’s the point of this?!”
Yan Xie didn’t bother to refute the second half of the sentence, but the first half of her sentence stopped him.
In Bu Wei’s situation, they can probably start questioning immediately when she wakes up. They just have to call a policewoman from the office, but they couldn’t find a particularly suitable and experienced person right now. In the fieldwork team, there are only two official female police officers, one is escorting in the field, and the other is six-month pregnant and was at home to protect the fetus because of the fear of miscarriage ——usually, it is okay to treat people like cattles, but at a time like this, if you assign tasks to a pregnant woman, not to mention whether there will be an accident, Yan Xie himself is too embarrassed.
He took a deep breath, and suddenly a flash of light flashed in his mind. He asked Gao Panqing, “Where’s Han Xiaomei?”
“Ah?”
“Why haven’t I seen her since I came back from Jiangyang, where is the person? Resigned?”
“Oh, she asked for leave this morning.” Gao Panqing said, “Menstrual period, dysmenorrhea. You don’t see that face, it was so white that it was scary.”
“……” Yan Xie said in disbelief, “Will buying a box of painkillers kill her?!”
Gao Panqing did not dare to make a sound.
“If she is pregnant and gives birth to a child, maternity leave is fine, and I will approve the nursing leave. But I know that the menstrual period is once a month. Is it possible to grant her 12 dysmenorrhea leave every year? Then at that time when I was recruiting an intern, why didn’t I listen to the police academy’s suggestion that boys will do?!” Yan Xie’s index finger impatiently clicked on his cell phone, and he motioned to Gao Panqing: “Call! Call her over!”
Gao Panqing burst into tears, because he was unable to protect his interns, and can only act cowardly.
“You really…” Jiang Ting put a hand on his forehead.
Yan Yie’s anger remained undisturbed. He stood upright in front of the hospital corridor window, with broad shoulders and long legs, and one hand in his pocket, like a ruthless and neat poplar. He completely disregarded the nurse’s angry remarks and snorted: “It’s none of my business. If you want to take the benefit of being in the fieldwork team, you have to work according to the standard of the field team. There are too many boys in the police academy who broke their heads for her internship position. If she is willing to transfer back to the office, then I have no opinion. I guarantee that there will be no need to add shifts every day from nine to six. There is no reason for sugarcane to be sweet.”
Jiang Ting murmured: “So that’s why, you are really single until now.”
Yan Xie was silent at first and seemed to endure it. The two stood silently in front of the hospital window for a few minutes, only to hear him suddenly say: “No.”
Jiang Ting: “?”
Yan Xie seemed to be looking out of the window intently, but out of the corner of his eyes, he looked at Jiang Ting again and again. After a while, he said, “It’s because I haven’t met someone I really like.”
Jiang Ting: “……”
The atmosphere suddenly became a little strange, and even the breeze from the window became particularly obvious, itching people’s necks.
“…I’m going to the bathroom,” Jiang Ting squeezed out, trying his best to sound like nothing had happened, and hurried away with his head down.
Yan Xie watched his back disappear into the distance without blinking. After a while, he sighed in anxiety or anticipation.
Before Gao Panqing came back, the nurse had already left. Yan Xie stood by himself for a while and suddenly felt bored. So he turned back to the door of the ward and peered in through the glass.
Bu Wei had calmed down, and now she was leaning on the head of the hospital bed alone, staring at her knees with her head down. She looked very weak and didn’t know whether she was thinking about something or just in a daze.
Yan Xie narrowed his eyes and looked at the side of her face, that vague and weird feeling came back again.
But why? he thought.
What is this feeling? Why doesn’t everyone think something is wrong?
Bu Wei moved, raised her head and looked forward dazedly. After a while, she suddenly turned her head as if she noticed something, and met with Yan Xie’s scrutinising line of sight.
The two of them stared at each other, stunned at the same time, and then the lightning flashed in Yan Xie’s mind!
——Yes, he knew why he always felt weird.
The girl’s face from a certain angle, especially when looked up from the bottom, itlooked like Jiang Ting!
