Chapter 555: Investigation
He could see that there were several terrifying dark purple whip marks on Cance’s exposed waist skin! Each one was as thick as 2 fingers!
This made Fang Linyan imagine the tragic condition on Cance’s back…
“Flogging? Self-torture? Or the punishment of thorns in a cult? Or an ascetic monk?”
After a few thoughts flashed through Fang Linyan’s mind, he walked out calmly.
After the slowly closing door to the ward blocked the view of the people inside, Fang Linyan said thoughtfully,
“Goat, where are the Skeleton Team?”
Goat said,
“They are taking a break. Is there a work for them?”
Fang Linyan said,
Goat immediately contacted No. 4. He said he would come right away and would be here in half an hour.
When No. 4 came, Fang Linyan sent the information of the previous attending doctor and Cance, then he said,
“I see from your resume that you have been a spy before. There may be communication between these two people. Check their call records and the like.”
No. 4 asked,
“That’s it?”
Fang Linyan said,
“Yes, that’s it.”
No. 4 sighed helplessly, and even showed an embarrassed expression of ‘why are you asking a wolf doing a Corgi’s work?’ However, he still said,
“No problem.”
Fang Linyan then said,
“Let’s go find Sanchez now.”
…
After Latvis fell, Second Mate Sanchez became Coles’ new captain without any surprise.
Of course, he was a member of the Star Consortium, so he was given such an important task.
Therefore, if Fang Linyan wanted to talk to him, he only needed to ask Horr about his whereabouts.
Sanchez was of couse not on Coles, because during the next voyage, he would have plenty of time to get along with this big ship day and night.
So Fang Linyan met Sanchez in a striptease bar.
He was accompanied by several crew members. These guys were all half drunk, waving their bills excitedly and shouting at the women twisting around the pole on the central dance floor.
Sanchez was holding a cigar in his mouth, and stuffed a roll of bills into the deep groove of the half-naked dancer in front of him.
After meeting Fang Linyan, Sanchez immediately waved and enthusiastically asked Fang Linyan to join along, and he said smilingly,
“I knew you would become our people.”
Obviously, this referred to Fang Linyan joining the Star Consortium.
Fang Linyan nodded with a smile,
“Please take care of me in the future, captain.”
Sanchez was slightly startled. He could hear that Fang Linyan still wanted to be the crew member of Coles. But this guy was also experienced. He immediately laughed and said,
“Do you need that? I have seen your skills before. A senior engineer like you is hard to find!”
At this time, Goat had already ordered 3 bottles of the best Royal Salute from the bar. Of course, there were several escort girls behind him, so everyone drank more enthusiastically.
Soon, Sanchez was drunk. As a captain, he would inevitably be toasted by everyone.
Fang Linyan also drank a lot, but his face only turned red. He still looked calm.
At this time, he still urged Sanchez to drink, then with the cooperation of Goat, he naturally turned the topic to the crew members.
A one-eyed crew member named Mitty said drunkenly,
“Jha? That guy is not simple!”
“When we were playing cards on the ship, many people already said that he was cheating, but we couldn’t get any evidence. But now no one will play cards with him. Hahahaha, this son of a bitch deserves it!”
After hearing this, Goat said,
“Those who cheat in playing cards have bad character. No wonder I heard Sanchez say that he thought it was Jha who made Coles crash into the meteorite belt.”
Mitty shook his head, burped, and said,
“Who knows, that bastard Sanchez is not a good thing either. He still owes me more than 700.”
Fang Linyan said absentmindedly,
“You know, Mitty. I’m good at mechanical repairs, and I’ll probably be back working at Coles next.”
“So someone told me that Cance is doing a pretty good job in this area. He is very serious, meticulous, and responsible. The person suggested me to get him work under me. What do you think of this suggestion?”
“No no no no!”
Mitty immediately shook his head violently and said,
“Oh my gosh, I doubt that the person has a grudge against you. Who told you that Cance is serious, meticulous, and responsible?”
Fang Linyan said slightly surprised,
“What? Isn’t he like that?”
Being questioned, Mitty said angrily,
“Will my evaluation of him be wrong? Todd and Cance were both in the engineering department before. You can ask him.”
Todd didn’t seem to like talking very much.
However, when Fang Linyan raised the Royal Salute to him, he understood that Fang Linyan’s treated the top-quality whiskey, and Mitty’s reputation could not be ruined, so Todd said,
“Oh, when the chief engineer is making the timetable, there will always be people complaining. Because the person who complained has been grouped with Cance. In the end, we can only draw lots during the weekly grouping, and the most unlucky person will be grouped with Cance. “
“Cance is a complete mess at work. Don’t expect him to do a good job. He will only give us more work. I saw him pooping at work more than once because he said that the bathroom is too far!”
“And Cance’s life is also in a mess. He has never folded his quilt. His pillow is so black that it is shiny. The sheets are the same ones he had when he boarded the ship. They haven’t been changed for 1 year and 3 months!”
Mitty added in a disdainful tone,
“This idiot must have stuffed money into the chief engineer or sold his ass. Otherwise, there is no way he can still stay in the engine department.”
Fang Linyan nodded silently and continued to drink with them.
***
About half an hour later, the drinking party ended. Several Coles crew members happily left with a few girls in heavy makeup.
For them, getting drunk and having sex was a perfect night.
Goat said in surprise as he walked out with Fang Linyan,
“Boss, why do you think there is something wrong with Cance?”
Fang Linyan said,
“First, I saw whip marks on Cance’s back, very brutal ones. Of course, this does not legally prove that he is related to Latvis’ coma.”
After hearing Fang Linyan’s words, Vulture revealed a cold smile,
“But we are not judges. We have the right to pursue any doubts.”
Fang Linyan smiled and continued,
“Second, I carefully checked Latvis’ Condition. His body is clean, the infusion site on his arm is normal, and there are even flowers beside him. These seemingly simple tasks are actually very difficult to do.”
“After all, Latvis is a patient who is unable to function independently. He has been here for almost 3 days. It would not be unusual if he was cared for by a senior nurse or caregiver, but as a male caregiver who has been excluded, Cance did a really great job.”
After hearing Fang Linyan’s words, Goat immediately realized it,
“Now that you said it, Latvis is really well taken care of as if this perfection is deliberately created! The caregiver who seems perfect is actually the biggest problem!”
Fang Linyan pondered,
“The drinking party is valuable. Colleagues would almost never lie about Cance’s evaluation, because lying on such a well-known matter can easily be exposed.”
“Although Cance is suspicious, the attending doctor also plays a key role in it. Without the help of internal staff in the hospital, even Cance can’t tidy up the bed and Latvis couldn’t have been taken care of so well.”
Vulture interrupted,
“So what is their purpose of creating an atmosphere that Latvis is well taken care of?”
Fang Linyan said in a deep voice,
“If my guess is correct, then he should be trying to get acquitted! Latvis should have recovered after the operation, but his condition is getting worse strangely. The doctor can use many professional excuses to excuse himself, but if he is badly taken care of, there’s no guarantee that Cance will be held accountable in the end.”
Vulture said,
“Then what are we waiting for? Don’t forget what our mission is! Since both Cance and doctor are huge suspects, then we should take Latvis away immediately! Our visit may have just alerted Cance and made him kill Latvis.”
“Not only that, don’t you realize that this is actually great news? We don’t have to look for those damn Dorophene and Catral, we only need to change a hospital and an escort to easily complete the mission!”
Fang Linyan was stunned by Vulture’s point. He had made the mistake of putting the cart before the horse! Why was he trying to find out the truth behind the scenes?
“Dammit… Our focus should be on keeping Latvis alive!”
