Chapter 556 - Ridiculous Questioning - Part 2 (1/2)

”You three are guilty of murdering Linda and now are trying to escape from taking the blame.” The policeman accused without holding back.

This time, neither of the three people could stop themselves from laughing. As soon as the policeman threw accusations at them, they burst out laughing, startling him for a moment. The policeman had no idea what was happening and why the three people were laughing. He just stared at them blankly in confusion.

”Now I really doubt your intelligence, Inspector,” Ian stated once he stopped laughing. ”You have crossed all levels of stupidity for blaming us without thinking. Why would we even kill a woman we do not even know? We met the patient only today, and you think we will kill her for no reason whatsoever.”

Ian's face turned cold at once, and the sudden shift in him made the policeman tremble lightly. His heart skipped a beat and he could not help but cower in his place. He took a step back to keep his distance from Ian.. But Ian did not him that privilege. He closed in on him, towering over him domineeringly.

”Do not test our patience, Inspector. We will not accept everything you throw at us blindly.” He gritted his teeth before he walked back to stand in between Aria and Stuart.

It took a few seconds for the policeman to return to his calm state after being utterly intimidated by Ian. His face had gone completely pale, and nobody could ignore his obvious scared expression.

”Are we done, or do we still have to answer any absurd questions?” Ian queried, still not giving up his domineering aura.

It was only when he heard Ian's voice did the policeman snap out of his fear. He blinked a few times to catch hold of his sanity and his sense. ”You cannot leave, doctors.”

”May we ask why?” Ian continued.

”You are not allowed to leave until we get the post mortem reports. What if you are guilty of murdering Linda and are trying to run away?” Though he did not smirk like before, his words did not change and he kept accusing them.

”Are you going to make us wait until the report comes out?” Aria asked in disbelief. She could not hide her irritation and raised her hands in helplessness. The policeman had lost it completely.

”Yes, you will have to stay in this room until the report comes out. And I just hope the report is not falsified for I will get another post mortem report after this. If I find anything untrue in the report, I will make sure this hospital shuts down forever.” The policeman threatened without thinking. His fear had vanished as quickly as he had felt it, and now he had returned to threatening them foolishly.

Ian just shook his head at the man's obnoxious threats. 'I would like to see how you will shut this hospital down. I will make sure that you will not be holding your post before you can even start your plan to get my hospital closed.' He vowed in his mind before he took his seat again.

Ian realized that it would be impossible for them to leave the room without kicking up a fuss. He had seen the three constables move towards them as soon as he and his friends had stood up. And creating a ruckus was the last thing he had in mind. He did not wish to destroy his hospital's name just because of some idiot.

”You want us to wait for the reports, right? We will wait until then. Dr. West, Dr. Lee, let us wait until then.” Ian gestured for his colleagues to sit down, and they followed his request without complaints. They too had realized what the policeman was getting at, and the only way to shut him up was with the reports.

”And let me tell you, Inspector.” Ian gave a mysterious nod to Aria and Stuart. ”If anything happens to any of our patients while we are here, you will be held accountable for it is you who had held us here. I hope you are ready to bear the consequences that might fall on you if such a situation arises.”
