Chapter 429: Investigation Mission (Part 2)

"Oh my, really... So you are the older brother of Hanna's savior! Auntie misunderstood you!"

After figuring out the situation, the manager aunt, who had just been fierce, immediately returned to her kind and gentle appearance, and even pulled Li Ang's arm and complained:

"Look at this mess... You could have just said you heard Hanna was sick and came to see her, right? Why did you show Auntie your certificate? I've always treated Hanna like my own daughter. If I had known there was this connection, would Auntie not have let you up?"

"..."

You can stop that... If you hadn't stopped me before and questioned me like a thief, I would have gone upstairs long ago, okay? Do I need to show my certificate to prove my identity?

Seeing Li Ang's speechless expression, the manager aunt blushed, snorted, and said in a muffled voice:

"Auntie stopped you before because you looked unfamiliar. I'm familiar with everyone in this apartment. I really haven't seen you before, and you were wearing... cough, cough, and you were carrying a big bag of things, so I thought I'd ask more..."

It's not that I was carrying things, it's that I was wearing something relatively ragged, and you were worried I was a thief, right?

Looking at his old coat, which was severely worn at the corners and estimated to be nearly twenty years old, Li Ang smiled helplessly.

This coat was left by "his" father and was several years older than him. The appearance was indeed a bit miserable, but according to his family's situation of relying on pensions, it was good enough to have warm clothes to wear, so naturally, he didn't have the ability to pick and choose.

Although he now had a high-paying job, the first week's salary hadn't arrived yet, so naturally, he had no money to change into a new coat. He was dressed very frugally, and on top of being curled up by the cold wind, it wasn't strange to be treated as a suspicious person...

"Cough, cough... Sorry, young man, Auntie misjudged you."

Looking at Li Ang's helpless expression, knowing that he had understood her "implication," the manager aunt apologized, and together with the middle-aged nurse's husband, led Li Ang into the house, and reached out to take the shopping bag in Li Ang's hand.

"Oh my, your sister is Hanna's savior, and you brought so many things when you came. Your hand is red from the bag, put it down and rest... uh..."

Although Li Ang reacted quickly and dodged the manager aunt's hand, the Hearing Hearing Heishanyang's horns were too sharp, and it fell out with a thud after shaking violently.

"..."

"..."

"That... sorry, this is what our Director asked me to buy for soup."

Hurriedly bending down, stuffing the Hearing Hearing Heishanyang's head back into the bag, and tying a dead knot at the tear, Li Ang explained to the two people who were stunned in front of him shyly:

"Our Director especially likes to drink sheep head soup, but she sleeps late and can't get up in the morning, so she asked me to run an errand for her at the morning market. I came over after buying the sheep head."

"Hmm... also, I just joined the job a few days ago, and I don't have much money in my hand, so I didn't bring anything when I came to visit, sorry."

"Ah, sorry young man, Auntie's hand was too fast, hehe..."

After making several mistakes and making the atmosphere very awkward, the manager aunt had no face to stay any longer. After barely saying a few irrelevant words, she left the middle-aged nurse's house in a hurry, using the excuse that she still had to watch the door.

And after she left, the middle-aged man apologized again embarrassedly:

"Auntie Mary... she might be too worried about Hanna today, so she was a bit reckless, but she didn't mean it."

"Usually, when someone in the apartment has a big or small thing and needs help, sometimes she will come to help without being asked. Auntie Mary is a very kind and careful good person. If she offended you, I apologize to you on her behalf."

"No, no."

Recalling the situation he saw in his soul vision before entering the apartment, Li Ang smiled and waved his hand:

"I can tell that she is a very, very kind good person, and not just her, even everyone in your apartment building is a good person... hmm... can I make a presumptuous request?"

Looking at the closed door of the inner room, Li Ang asked tentatively: "I heard from the gas company's compensation clerk that regarding what happened yesterday, your wife seems to have... different thoughts?"

"Don't worry, I've guessed some reasons for your wife's situation, which might be helpful in solving her problem. Can I talk to her alone?"

"This..."

Hearing Li Ang's request, the middle-aged man with a scholarly air hesitated. He seemed to want to refuse, but remembering that the other party's sister was his wife's savior and had no reason to harm his wife, he finally agreed reluctantly and led Li Ang into the bedroom in the inner room.

"Hanna?"

Gently calling his wife's name and waking up the middle-aged nurse who was still sleeping soundly in the quilt, before the middle-aged man could explain Li Ang's intention, the middle-aged nurse, whose hair was messy and whose eyes were full of bloodshot eyes, sat up suddenly, looked at Li Ang, and said loudly with eagerness:

"I've seen you! You are Anna's brother! You were there the day before yesterday, right?"

"Quick! Tell me! Did you see the hospital eating people! Did you see that bandage woman with great strength!"

"Hmm, I saw it, and I came here today for this."

Giving the middle-aged man a look, signaling him not to worry and leave everything to him, Li Ang said gently:

"Don't worry, you are not crazy, everything you saw is true."

"Look! Look! He saw it too!"

Hearing Li Ang's words, the middle-aged nurse was overjoyed. She hurriedly grabbed her husband's arm and said loudly:

"I said I wasn't crazy! The hospital really had a problem! And there really was a woman covered in bandages!"

"..."

Looking at his wife, whose mood had suddenly become excited, the middle-aged man looked at Li Ang, who had given an affirmative answer, his lips opened and closed twice, and his face was full of words he wanted to say but didn't.

After drinking some calming medicine and tossing and turning for nearly two days, his wife still thought she saw the bandage woman, but under the insistence of others, she seemed to doubt whether she had made a mistake, and the situation seemed to be improving.

But now, this savior who suddenly came to the door had confirmed her fantasy. Would this really not cause her condition to worsen again?

"Forget it, you can stay and listen too."

Looking at the middle-aged man's expression, knowing that he probably wouldn't feel at ease leaving, Li Ang shook his head, gave up the idea of letting him leave, turned around, grabbed the doorknob, and closed the door of the inner room.

"What your wife saw is actually..."

"Sss..."
