Chapter 1682: Caught

The head nurse thought for a moment: "I've been married to your brother-in-law for twenty-one years, so I've been here for twenty-one years."

"Time flies." The woman sighed, "I've been at our hospital for ten years, and my child is already eight."

"Indeed!" The head nurse said with some sadness, "I'm over forty, and my son is already dating."

The three of them were chatting when they heard hurried and chaotic footsteps approaching, and immediately after, more than ten police officers appeared at the corner of the corridor.

"Who reported the crime just now?" asked a middle-aged man wearing a police uniform.

"I reported it." Xiao Yan shrank her neck, not daring to look at the head nurse, raised her hand, and then got up and left: "I'll take you there."

Watching Xiao Yan lead more than ten police officers toward the ward at the end of the corridor, the head nurse looked puzzled: "What's going on?"

The woman burst into laughter and picked up the wanted poster from the table.

"This girl is obsessed; she insisted that Patient No. 37 looks like a wanted criminal, wanted to earn that 20,000 yuan reward, and then called the police."

"Nonsense."

The head nurse hurried over, and then she saw a scene that left her dumbfounded: more than ten police officers were guarding the entrance, and the middle-aged man was looking at Patient No. 37 with a smile on his face.

"Director Gu, you've made us search so hard."

Gu Bing let out a long sigh; the fact that he could be found even while in a mental hospital showed that heaven would not tolerate him.

"Qi Xuwen, I lost, but I didn't lose to you. It's not your turn, a defeated subordinate, to be arrogant in front of me."

"When I voluntarily applied for a transfer back then, did you really think I was afraid of you?" Qi Xuwen said mockingly, "That was because Ganzhou was too dark, and I couldn't see the road ahead, so I chose to leave."

Qi Xuwen paced slowly and stood opposite Gu Bing.

"The sun has come out, and the sky in Ganzhou has brightened. I have waited for this day for seventeen years."

"Old Qi!" Gu Bing sneered, "After all these years, you are still so naive. Crows are black all over the world; as long as the rare earth in Ganzhou isn't mined out, the sky will never brighten.

If you don't believe me, then wait and see. I won't be able to see it, but you definitely will. When that time comes, bring a bottle of wine to my grave and tell me whether the sky you believe in has brightened or not."

After speaking, Gu Bing raised his hand and patted Qi Xuwen on the shoulder: "You must learn to walk in the darkness; perhaps you can find the light."

Qi Xuwen was stunned. Gu Bing stepped forward, brushed past him, and then extended his hands.

A police officer was about to handcuff Gu Bing, but was stopped by a wave of Qi Xuwen's hand.

As the saying goes, the person who knows you best must be your enemy.

Qi Xuwen and Gu Bing were rivals, enemies, and knew each other very well.

Therefore, Qi Xuwen believed that Gu Bing would not run away.

Because in the bones of this guy, there was his own pride.

And as an enemy, he also hoped to leave Gu Bing with his final dignity.

Watching Patient No. 37 being taken away, both the head nurse and the woman were dumbfounded.

They felt as if they were dreaming; this Patient No. 37 was actually a wanted criminal.

Xiao Yan followed the middle-aged police officer silently. When they reached the stairwell, the middle-aged man couldn't help it anymore.

"Why are you following me?"

Xiao Yan came to a sudden stop, almost bumping her head into the middle-aged man.

The girl extended her hand: "The reward."

The middle-aged man said, not knowing whether to laugh or cry: "Don't worry, the reward will definitely be given; we will contact you when the time comes."

Xiao Yan blinked: "When will you contact me?"

The middle-aged man said helplessly: "After confirming the suspect's identity; if he really is the wanted criminal, the money will be yours."

"Haven't you already confirmed his identity?" Xiao Yan didn't quite understand: "His name is Gu Bing; this is what you said, and it's the same name as on the wanted poster."

The middle-aged man explained patiently: "My confirmation is useless; the special investigation team has to confirm it. When that happens, the reward will definitely be given to you."

Xiao Yan finally understood, but still reminded him worriedly: "Remember to contact me, don't forget."

"Don't worry." The middle-aged man guaranteed, "I definitely won't forget. As soon as the special investigation team confirms his identity, I will file a report to apply for the reward."

Xiao Yan was finally satisfied: "Alright then, you can go."

The middle-aged man left. The head nurse and the woman walked over, circling around Xiao Yan.

Xiao Yan looked at the woman, very triumphantly: "How about that? I told you he was a wanted criminal, but you didn't believe me."

"Tsk tsk tsk!" The woman clicked her tongue: "You girl really have good luck; even a blind cat can find a dead mouse."

"Hey hey hey!" Xiao Yan was very dissatisfied: "What do you mean by a blind cat finding a dead mouse? That's called keen observation. I saw that Patient No. 37's eyes were very similar to the wanted criminal's, which is why I called the police.

This is called 'better to be wrong than to let go.' If I hadn't called the police, would the wanted criminal have continued to remain at large? In other words, even if it turned out he wasn't the one, we wouldn't have lost anything, right?"

The head nurse laughed: "I think our hospital should give you a big red flower and give you the title of Advanced Individual."

Xiao Yan giggled: "Head nurse, the big red flower and the Advanced Individual title are fine, let's just be a bit more practical—just give me a bit more reward money."

"You really are a little money-grubber." The head nurse scolded with a smile: "Fine, what you did today was beautiful, you must be rewarded. Before I get off work tonight, I'll go find the dean and apply for the reward for you."

"Long live the head nurse."

Xiao Yan jumped up and cheered, then hugged the head nurse's neck and gave her a kiss on the cheek.

…………………………

Ganzhou!

Yue Jiaqiang stood in front of the window, raising his arms and twisting his waist to exercise his body.

"Only Gu Bing is left. As long as we catch him, this case will be perfect."

Zhou Hongwen walked to his side holding a teacup, looking at the vibrant spring scenery outside.

"The weather in the capital should be warm now, too."

Yue Jiaqiang nodded: "I watched the weather forecast last night; it's eight degrees above zero in the capital today."

Zhou Hongwen said: "I hope we can catch Gu Bing as soon as possible so we can close the case early and return to the capital."

"If we can't catch him, there's nothing we can do. Although the case has some flaws, we can't stay here forever."

Yue Jiaqiang put his leg on the windowsill and began to stretch; because he was exerting force, his speech sounded a bit short of breath.

Zhou Hongwen was silent; it seemed he was a bit unwilling: "Gu Bing, where exactly is he hiding?"

Yue Jiaqiang stood up straight and let out a long breath: "I don't think he ran far; he should still be in the province."

"Report!" At this moment, a report came from outside.

Yue Jiaqiang shouted: "Come in!"

The door opened, and Duan Mingwei walked in excitedly: "Minister, Gu Bing has been caught." ===== CHAPTER 1683 =====
