But after all, it was a rumor. The doctors and nurses who worked there didn’t see it with their own eyes. They only laughed it off and didn’t take it seriously.
However, strange things happened again. On the next night, the haunted incident reappeared. Moreover, this time around, not only did many patients see it, but even the doctors on the night shift saw it!
Only then did the dean of the hospital pay attention to this and quickly contact the police.
“Everyone, what do you think of the haunted incident at Song Jiang First People’s Hospital?” Chen Fei took the file on the table and asked the other members of the criminal investigation team.
“Obviously, someone was pretending to be a ghost!” Xia Xue snorted.
” Hehe , yes, someone was pretending to be a ghost.” Chen Fei said with a smile, “This is for sure. What I asked was, do you have any good ideas?”
“Let’s wait for windfalls [1].” Xia Xue said.
“That’s a good idea, but according to the above description of the file, the locations of the two haunted places are different – once in the third inpatient department of the hospital, once in the high-rise building. The impact was particularly bad especially the second time! Many retired leaders in the city are hospitalized there, and an old leader was so scared that he broke his leg.” Chen Fei continued, “Besides, there are no other casualties. However, it’s enough to bring our attention there. If there was a patient with heart disease in the scene during that time, the case that we will need to handle today would be a murder case!”
The people in the room nodded secretly after listening to Chen Fei’s words. Fortunately, they were lucky and there wasn’t anyone scared to death. Otherwise, this case would be much more serious.
“Here’s the overall floor plan of the hospital.” Chen Fei took out a paper with drawings. “Before the old leader retired, he was a real power figure in the city. Now, he is also a member of the National People’s Congress, so he has already put pressure on us. We need to solve the case as soon as possible.”
All of the seated personnel nodded and began to observe the floor plan brought by Chen Fei.
“There are a total of 6 inpatient departments in the hospital. Each inpatient department is roughly between three to sixteen floors. If we have to wait for windfalls, we need to dispatch a large number of police forces. The manpower of our criminal investigation team is simply not enough. I have to transfer more manpower from the police stations in various districts and the local police station to perform the task. Every inpatient department and every floor needs someone to guard it!” Chen Fei continued, “Besides waiting for windfalls, is there any other way?”
“Probably not …” The people present thought a little while and shook their head. Yes, the location of the crime scene was uncertain, and it created a lot more difficulties to solve the case.
“What if we only guarded the gate of the first floor?” Xia Xue suddenly asked, “With that, we only need to pay attention to whether there are any suspicious people coming in and out.”
“What if the person who pretended to be a ghost is an insider of the hospital? Or a patient?” Chen Fei smiled bitterly, “Before the case is solved, anyone can be the criminal! Xia Xue, I understand your intention, but if you want to solve a big case, you have to train for a few more years!”
” Ah !” Xia Xue was stunned and immediately blushed. I just seem to be too amateur. No wonder Chen Fei always refuses to send me to perform important missions! However, Xia Xue also made a secret decision that she must solve a big case for the others to see! Xia Xue could also do it well!
Chen Afu held the newspaper in his hand. He was nervous and excited deep down in his heart! Ha, I actually scared the leader of the National People’s Congress and broke his leg! A wicked sense of accomplishment arose! Chen Afu found it very refreshing, so refreshing that it couldn’t be described…
Particularly in these few days, after seeing those people who panicked and yelled in front of him, Chen Afu was happy deep in his heart! However, Chen Afu wasn’t a fool. After seeing the haunted news in the newspaper, he also knew that he could no longer pretend to be a ghost. The police were probably already waiting in the hospital for him to fall for the trap!
Fortunately, the repression in his heart had been vented out. Chen Afu wasn’t so depressed. He resumed his usual identity, the hotel foreman. He also stored the ghost mask away.
Today was the third day that the police guarded the hospital. Before, there was no other effective method and only this method of waiting for windfalls could be used. However, the hospital night was still very quiet. For three days, there were no more haunted events!
Chen Fei had no other way to go about it. There were a lot of things this year, and there were other cases to solve. They couldn’t just entangle themselves in this haunted incident, right? They could only withdraw some of their own forces while the others continued to stay at the hospital…
…
New Year had arrived. Today was January 1st, New Year’s Day.
On this day, Chen Mengyan woke up very early even before the day turned bright. She dressed herself up beautifully. Why? Today was the day when the ugly daughter-in-law visited the parents! For the first time, as a girlfriend, she went to Yang Ming’s home as a guest. How could Chen Mengyan not be nervous?
“Mom, do you think I’m pretty with what I’m wearing?” Chen Mengyan stood in front of the closet and was somewhat worried.
” Hehe , silly child, why are you so nervous? You aren’t too bad.” Mother Chen said with a smile, “Moreover, wasn’t Yang Ming’s mother on the phone with you before? Doesn’t she have a good impression of you?”
“That’s true… but it’s not the same!” Chen Mengyan said with some shyness, “This is the first formal meeting!”
“Well, then your mother will give you some advice… This beige down jacket is not bad. Xiao Yan, you can wear this one!” Mother Chen took out the down jacket she mentioned from the closet.
” Ah ? This one?” Chen Mengyan said, “Aren’t these my high school clothes? Isn’t it a bit too kawaii?”
“Not really? It looks very cute to me.” Mother Chen said with a smile.
“Do I look like a child? Mom, should I dress up a little more mature?” Chen Mengyan asked.
“What’s so bad if you look like a child? In your mother’s eye, you are always a child who won’t grow up. I think Yang Ming’s parents will have the same opinion on Yang Ming. So, in their eyes, you and Yang Ming are all children. It’s not good to dress up maturely.” Mother Chen patted Chen Mengyan’s forehead and spoke.
“I see! Alright, I will just wear this one.” Chen Mengyan nodded and took the clothes in her hand.
“Let’s go. I have already finished preparing breakfast. Your dad is waiting for us in the dining room. Let’s go quickly!” Mother Chen said.
“Alright!” Chen Mengyan held her clothes and went for breakfast with her mother.
Chen Mengyan woke up early today. Wasn’t Yang Ming the same? It wasn’t that he couldn’t sleep because he was as nervous as Chen Mengyan. However, in the early morning, he was woken up by his mother!
“Yang Ming, hurry and get up! Aren’t you going to pick up my daughter-in-law? Why haven’t you woken up yet?” Mother Yang’s voice resonated across Yang Ming’s entire room.
“Alright, I know. I’m up already.” Yang Ming accompanied the “Wild Female Teacher” last night for Landlords. This chick said that she was in a bad mood. She didn’t go back to her parents on New Year’s Day. She was very bored alone. Her lover wasn’t able to be with her… Yang Ming was a soft-hearted person, and he accompanied her for Landlords.
As a result, he only went to bed in the early morning. Now, he was still sleepy after he woke up. He slept for less than three hours!
Yang Ming pushed open the door with sleepy eyes, and then he saw that his mother had already dressed up neatly. Even his father who had never paid attention to his appearance wore the Armani suit today that Yang Ming bought for him. He sat vibrantly on the sofa. When he saw Yang Ming come out, he immediately reprimanded his son, “What day is it today and yet you are still dawdling in bed? Hurry up and tidy yourself to pick up Chen Mengyan! Mother and I are waiting for you at home!”
“I know.” Yang Ming nodded and walked quickly to the bathroom. He brushed his teeth and then he dressed and went out.
He called a taxi and came to the door of Chen Mengyan’s house. Yang Ming gave Chen Mengyan a call.
“Hello, Mengyan, I’m at the door of your home.” Yang Ming said.
“My parents invited you to come up and sit for a while. Are you coming?” Chen Mengyan asked.
“Let’s do that tomorrow. Didn’t we promise already? Besides, I have met your parents, and we don’t have to be in a hurry to visit them, right?” Yang Ming said.
“Alright, then I’m going down now.” Chen Mengyan said, “You will need to wait for me for ten minutes.”
“Alright, no problem.” Yang Ming hung up the phone, and he waited for about five minutes. Then, he saw Chen Mengyan walked over to him.
” Ha !” Yang Ming looked at Chen Mengyan’s outfit and said, “Isn’t this the down jacket that you wore when you were in high school?”
“Yes, you still remember?” Chen Mengyan was stunned, as she didn’t expect Yang Ming to remember. She only wore the down jacket during the first year of high school. Later, Chen Mengyan felt that this piece was too childish and bought a white down jacket.
In total, she hadn’t worn it for ten days. Yang Ming actually remembered! Chen Mengyan couldn’t help but have a sense of sweetness deep down in her heart.
