Chapter 158: Murder Case

Indeed, whatever you fear will come.

Just as Gao Liu Meijinzi was thinking, how could she make Gao Liu Xiuji accept this fact?

He, lying on the hospital bed, suddenly opened his eyes.

"Meijinzi, how are you here?" Gao Liu Xiuji, seeing her by the bedside, spoke weakly.

Gao Liu Meijinzi said softly: "I know you're injured and hospitalized; I came specially to take care of you. You just woke up, don't say too much."

Gao Liu Xiuji was deeply moved: "Meijinzi, thank you for your hard work. I'm really thirsty; could you pour me a glass of water?"

"No, the doctor said that wound healing is naturally slow in winter; the doctor advised you not to drink water before the wound heals." Gao Liu Meijinzi shook her head.

Wound?

Gao Liu Xiuji, his mind in a haze, suddenly realized that he seemed to have suffered a serious injury before losing consciousness.

Wait a moment.

Wound?

Thinking about the injury site, Gao Liu Xiuji suddenly felt something was off.

He felt that something was strange, as if something was missing.

Gao Liu Xiuji felt a chill in his heart, he forcefully pulled back the blanket covering him, only to see thick bandages wrapped around his groin.

He reached out and touched.

"Hiss..."

The intense pain twisted Gao Liu Xiuji's facial features together.

Gone.

Nothing left at all.

How could this happen?

Gao Liu Xiuji's emotions were somewhat collapsing; he hurriedly sat up on the hospital bed, constantly feeling along the bandages back and forth.

But what's gone is gone; no matter how he feels, he can't find it.

No matter what, this fact cannot be changed.

In his anger, Gao Liu Xiuji wanted to tear off the bandages.

"Gao Liu, please don't do this..." Seeing this, Gao Liu Meijinzi tried to stop him, but he shoved her to the ground.

"Impossible, impossible!" Gao Liu Xiuji could clearly feel that he was missing a small part, yet he could not accept this fact.

He violently tore off the bandages, scattering them everywhere, and the freshly sutured wound, after his tugging, split open directly.

"Ah!"

Looking at the bloody mess before him, Gao Liu Xiuji's face turned ashen, and he let out a piercing wail.

Immediately, a surge of anger attacked his heart; he clutched his chest, straightened his body, rolled his eyes, and fainted onto the hospital bed.

Fresh blood spurted like a fountain from the wound, continuously gushing out, soon soaking the bedsheets.

"Doctor, doctor!" Seeing this, Gao Liu Meijinzi hurriedly ran to the ward door and called out.

Hearing the commotion, doctors and patients alike came running, gathering at the doorway to watch the spectacle.

Seeing Gao Liu Xiuji bleeding heavily, doctors and nurses rushed to push him into the operating room for re-suturing.

"I'm not mistaken, is he missing that?"

"Who is this guy? He looks so familiar."

"Looks like Gao Liu Xiuji; he was assassinated and wounded, hospitalized."

"How unlucky can he be? He's uninjured everywhere except his crotch."

……

All the patients had the look of onlookers.

Hearing the surrounding chatter, Gao Liu Meijinzi helplessly squatted on the ground, crying with tears like pear blossoms in rain.

Originally, only the doctors and nurses knew where he was injured.

But now, after Gao Liu Xiuji's commotion, he will soon be known throughout the hospital…

No.

He should become famous throughout the Japanese army.

……

Inside the Fujiwara Villa.

Upon learning that Chen Yongren and others had been assassinated in the restaurant.

Fujiwara Rina and Fujiwara Youzi both wore anxious, fearful expressions.

"Look at you, scared; I'm fine, A Ren't I?" Fujiwara Jintai, thinking his wife and daughter were worried about him, said with a smile.

But this old fool completely misunderstood.

Although Rina and Youzi also cared for Fujiwara Jintai, they were more concerned about whether Chen Yongren was injured.

"Father, we should be unharmed, right?" Fujiwara Youzi probed indirectly.

Fujiwara Jintai thought for a moment and said: "Chen Sang protected me and suffered a minor thigh injury; I've already had doctors examine him, and it's nothing serious."

Thigh injured?

Fujiwara Rina and Fujiwara Youzi, secretly breaking a sweat, wore expressions of relief.

"What about Uncle Gao Liu?" Fujiwara Youzi casually asked.

Fujiwara Rina also didn't care about this, eating her meal by herself.

As long as Chen Sang is fine, that's enough.

"Gao Liu..."

Speaking of this, Tengyuan Jintai's facial expression was somewhat unnatural, and he spoke vaguely: "He is recuperating in the hospital..."

"What?" Tengyi Youzi worriedly said: "Uncle Gao Liu also got injured?"

Uncle Gao Liu?

In the future, you might have another Aunt Gao Liu.

Thinking about Gao Liu Xiuji's wound location, Tengyuan Jintai felt somewhat helpless.

Gao Liu's luck is really terrible.

How did the bullet just happen to hit that spot?

Tengyuan Jintai brushed it off with a couple of sentences, unwilling to mention Gao Liu Xiuji further.

Seeing he didn't want to say more, Tengyuan Linai and Tengyuan Youzi stopped asking, each privately calculating how to thank Chen Yongren.

……

Chen Yongren's home.

Knowing Chen Yongren had been assassinated and almost lost his life, Hua Lei cried like a little flower cat.

"Silly girl, why are you crying? I'm fine, A Ren't I?" Chen Yongren said, smiling as he rubbed Hua Lei's head.

Hua Lei squatted beside Chen Yongren, carefully changing the medicine, saying: "You almost got shot, I feel heartbroken too—there's a wound on your thigh, it must hurt so much."

Saying that, Hua Lei gently blew on the wound on Chen Yongren's thigh.

"There's nothing that exaggerated." Chen Yongren comforted.

"Then I feel heartbroken too." Hua Lei said: "Don't push yourself so hard in the future."

What surprised Chen Yongren was that, even if he deliberately said he was injured while saving a Japanese person.

Hua Lei's inner feelings also didn't change at all.

She wasn't just saying it; she truly cared for herself as well.

"Alright, look at me jumping around—what's up?" Chen Yongren casually picked up the cigarette on the table and joked: "If I don't strive hard, how can I support you?"

"You can't support me; then I'll work and support you in the future." Hua Lei said seriously.

"Then I'm not easy to support." Chen Yongren casually blurted: "I actually like small animals."

"You like small animals?" Hua Lei puzzled.

"They have to be there every meal." Chen Yongren said.

It's not proper to always wear big underpants in front of a young lady.

Chen Yongren stood up and adjusted his pants.

Don't let the wound touch water; if you want to bathe, I'll wipe you down, and no drinking either." Hua Lei also stood up, looking at the cigarette on Chen Yongren's lips.

He reached out, took it off, put it back into the cigarette case, and said: "Don't smoke either."

If you like meat, I'll make it for every meal.

Okay, okay, okay." Chen Yongren said helplessly: "I'll listen to you, I'll listen to everything you say."

I'll go out tomorrow, buy two old hens, stew soup for you to drink, to nourish your body." Hua Lei smiled sweetly.

I'll follow you." Chen Yongren felt an unprecedented warmth in his heart.

……

The next day.

Chen Yongren went out as usual, heading to the police station.

Upon learning they were to go to Team 9, the wounded Han Chen also showed up despite his injury.

Although they already knew Han Chen was Japanese, Huang Qifa did not suddenly become cold; he was still by his side taking care of him.

Zhang Haifeng also looked at Chen Yongren with great anticipation.

Seeing everyone assembled, Chen Yongren waved his hand, just about to lead them away.

Then he saw a woman rushing in anxiously, and she hurriedly said:

Oh no, there's a dead person, a dead person!
