Chapter 241: The Double

Luo Fei nodded with a solemn expression, yet there was always a sense of eagerness to act in his demeanor!

Gu Changzheng glared at him, and Luo Fei shrank his head. The two did not say a word, yet it seemed they had already exchanged much.

The moment Gu Changzheng left, Luo Fei took out his phone and dialed a number...

As for Gu Changzheng, after stepping out of the room, he saw that the doctor from earlier did not go to any other patient rooms, but instead walked hurriedly toward the end of the corridor with his head down!

Gu Changzheng knew that was where the elevator shaft was. He quickened his pace and arrived in front of the elevator just as the doors opened.

Seeing it was him, the doctor nodded slightly as a greeting, and Gu Changzheng returned a smile. The two entered the elevator almost simultaneously. Gu Changzheng pressed the button for the first floor, and they did not exchange any further words.

Luo Fei's room was on the thirteenth floor. At this moment, only Gu Changzheng and the doctor were in the elevator. Gu Changzheng suddenly asked, "I feel like I've seen you somewhere before?"

The moment the words left his mouth, the same battle intent he had felt in the patient room appeared beside him again.

Gu Changzheng also tensed his body; the cramped space of the elevator was instantly filled with surging killing intent!

Gu Changzheng was now certain that the person in the white coat beside him was the "Hoodie" who had deliberately appeared before him and Gao Ye that night!

And as for himself, it went without saying that he had been recognized by the other party back at the door of the patient room! Both sides were like arrows with taut strings, waiting to see who would strike first!

Suddenly! The elevator shook violently, and then the overhead light inside flickered a few times! This was like dropping a few drops of ice water into a hot wok of oil, instantly causing it to explode!

The one to strike first was the man in the white coat! From somewhere, a long-handled small knife suddenly appeared in his right hand; the blade was extremely thin and short! But the killing intent radiating from that blade was extremely intense!

Gu Changzheng first smelled a scent of blood, and then he saw a cold glint strike toward him!

He moved as well; in truth, he was only half a second slower than the man in the white coat! But this half-second meant he had no time to draw the weapon at his waist! By the time he clearly saw the small knife in the man's hand, the blade was already closing in on his face!

He threw his body backward quickly, and with a "Bang," his back slammed heavily against the smooth stainless steel wall of the elevator!

Gu Changzheng felt a sharp pain in his back, but he had also dodged the knife strike from the man in the white coat!

Seeing that the strike was ineffective, the man in the white coat was about to retract the knife. Gu Changzheng seized the opportunity, spread the five fingers of his left hand, and aimed for the wrist of the hand holding the knife!

The small knife in the man's hand seemed to be an extension of his fingers. Seeing Gu Changzheng reaching for his wrist, he pulled the knife back, blade facing upward, and slashed directly toward Gu Changzheng's five fingers!

Gu Changzheng was startled; he hadn't expected this kid to be so skilled with a knife! He hurriedly retracted the hand reaching for the opponent and dodged the strike in a sorry state.

But the man in the white coat seemed determined to take his life here. After this strike was dodged by Gu Changzheng, he increased his intensity, "Swish, swish, swish!" Gu Changzheng only felt the blade light flickering before his eyes. In the blink of an eye, Gu Changzheng had retreated to the corner of the elevator, with nowhere left to go!

Seeing Gu Changzheng forced into the corner, the man in the white coat did not hesitate. Fierce light appeared in his eyes, he gripped the small knife tightly, and slashed swiftly toward Gu Changzheng's chest!

Although the small knife in his hand was exceptionally sharp, it was limited by the blade being too short and thin, making it unsuitable for chopping or stabbing attacks, so he just kept slashing and cutting at Gu Changzheng's vital points. Seeing the knife closing in on his body again while his back was pressed tightly against the elevator car, Gu Changzheng took a deep breath in his desperation and tried his best to pull his chest inward!

"Rip!" With a sound, he felt a chill on his chest! His clothes had been slashed open with a large tear!

Seeing that this strike hadn't injured him, Gu Changzheng took advantage of the brief pause before the opponent's next attack, quickly kicked out, and struck hard at the opponent's ankle. With a muffled "Bang!" sound, the man in the white coat let out an "Ouch!" This strike hit him right on the left ankle!

Gu Changzheng was wearing leather shoes with extremely hard toes. While this strike wouldn't break his bones, the pain in the joint was extremely uncomfortable. The man in the white coat hopped on one leg in pain. Seeing the chance, Gu Changzheng raised his foot again, and with a "Thud!" delivered a front kick to the man's lower abdomen!

The man in the white coat let out an "Awoo" and bent over, clutching his abdomen with his left hand, half-kneeling on the ground, while the small knife in his right hand fell to the floor. Gu Changzheng thought to himself: So this guy is only good at playing with a knife, he has no martial arts skills! Thank goodness! Thank goodness!

In this short time, he had already taken out his handcuffs, kicked the small knife on the ground away with his foot, and with a "Click," handcuffed the man in the white coat behind his back!

Just then, the elevator doors opened automatically. It turned out that during the time the two were fighting in the elevator, it had already descended to the first floor. After the doors opened, Gu Changzheng saw Luo Fei standing at the entrance.

Seeing Gu Changzheng's torn shirt and the handcuffed man in the white coat, Luo Fei understood that a struggle had just taken place here. He hurried forward and asked, "Master! You weren't hurt, were you?"

Gu Changzheng shook his head: "Other than being good with a knife, this kid is mediocre at everything else; otherwise, I really would have been wounded today."

Looking at the man in the white coat again, he kept his head lowered, saying nothing. Gu Changzheng asked: "How long until they arrive?" He was referring to the support he had asked Luo Fei to call.

"Right away, Gao Ye and the others are nearby."

No sooner had the words left his mouth than Gao Ye rushed in first! Seeing the two, he ran over quickly and said: "Team Leader Gu! What's the situation? Did you find that Hoodie?"

Gu Changzheng glanced at the man in the white coat. By now, Gao Ye had also discovered the handcuffed man and walked behind him to examine him closely: "Hey! This silhouette is indeed exactly the same!"

The "Hoodie" he and Gu Changzheng had chased together that night—looking closely now, the silhouette of his back was indeed extremely similar!

There had been too many new developments in the last two days, especially Gu Changzheng accidentally catching a suspect in the serial murder case at the hospital, which greatly encouraged everyone. After the man in the white coat was escorted back to the Criminal Police Team, Gu Changzheng interrogated him overnight.

After being caught, this man in the white coat was like Xu Shu entering Cao Cao's camp—he said absolutely nothing! No matter what method Gu Changzheng used, he remained in the posture of an old monk in meditation: head lowered, eyes fixed on his nose, nose fixed on his heart!

Helpless, Gu Changzheng could only leave him aside for the moment and arrange for personnel to launch an investigation at the hospital overnight.

The investigation results showed that this guy was named Fang Yuan, 27 years old this year, a surgeon at the hospital!

This made Gu Changzheng very curious. He had an enviable job and a high income, so why would he go and commit such murderous deeds?

What was his relationship with Zhang Shaodong?

Was the "Hoodie" just him alone, or was it an identity shared by him and Zhang Shaodong?

But upon seeing his entire file, Gu Changzheng fell silent. He really hadn't expected that this young doctor named Fang Yuan would actually...
