Chapter 306 (1/2)
”Something happened to me on the way --”
Zheng Jianguo tilted his head and didn't rush to punch in again. Anyway, being late for 10 minutes was the same as being late for 25 minutes. When he got to Manion's side, he took out his address book, found out Augustus's number and called it. With a familiar voice from the microphone, he said, ”Hi, Augustus, I need a lawyer. I had some trouble on my way to work -”
”Zheng, don't worry. Please speak slowly. What happened to you?”
There was a lot of concern in Augustus' voice, which warmed Zheng Jianguo's heart. Then he said something about what happened on the road in a few words, and Augustus was obviously relieved: ”it's no problem. I'll let them find you in the emergency room, but I just need to delay your time --”
”Well, thank you, Augustus ~”
His address book of Harvard Law School flashed in his mind. Zheng Jianguo sighed in his heart. Those new law school graduates are still raw eggs. Otherwise, he doesn't have to call Augustus. He can solve the problem by finding the students in the address book: ”I hope my call doesn't bother you -”
”No, no, no, Zheng, it's not good for you to say so. We are alumni. We should inform each other in case of such a thing, so that we can help each other. Just wait for my good news.”
Augustus's tone revealed that good friends should take care of each other. Just when Zheng Jianguo was considering whether to talk about his recent stock acquisition on the phone, he suddenly ended the call, leaving Zheng Jianguo stunned with a microphone.
”Zheng, what happened to you on the road?”
Manion's voice dispersed the thoughts in Zheng Jianguo's mind. He nodded and said, ”yes, someone hit my car and threatened to kill me. Don't you see that I'm looking for a lawyer?”
”Well, then you should sue them and let the lawyer sue them - it's terrible.”
Manion's face turned red in an instant, revealing the common hatred. Zheng Jianguo nodded and pointed to the direction of the dressing room. It was only when he changed his clothes that he came to his throat, and he woke up to the difference in front of him. He immediately changed the ambiguous words to: ”I'll get a card.”
”OK, you go.”
With Manion nodding, Zheng Jianguo turned and left the service desk quickly. When he got to the punch in machine, he saw the little policeman Akon, who was bleary and was punching his work card. He picked up his time card and slapped it. It was the beginning of the familiar working time.
”Zheng, someone is looking for you -”
Zheng Jianguo, who had just changed his white coat, walked into the doctor's office. Alfonso, who had already held a cup of coffee, appeared. Because Zheng Jianguo only worked half a day in the emergency room every Thursday, the two-year resident who became his master after Bertha left, had to start working for 36 hours at 8 p.m. every Wednesday.
Therefore, Zheng Jianguo was in the state of herding sheep for half a day on Thursday morning. It was for this reason that Pliny sent him a message in the morning, but he didn't expect that a message could lead to such a chain event.
Considering that Pliny wanted to contact more patients, Zheng Jianguo didn't describe that he was caused by looking at information, so at present, everyone only knew that he was chased on the road, but didn't know what caused it.
”I think that dress should be a stock trader.”
Alfonso's voice was a little loud, but Zheng Jianguo, who had left the doctor's office, did not explain. Instead, he took his long legs and flew to the service desk. He saw a thin young man standing tall with a pair of Founder's glasses. He could feel the pride of each other from a long distance. He leaned out his hand a few steps in front of him and said, ”Hello, I'm Zheng Jianguo -”
”Hello, Zheng, I'm Zoe Bauer. I'm proficient in highway, crime and criminal procedure. Are you free now? Can we find an independent place to talk? ”
The pale young man held Zheng Jianguo together with a loud and slightly low voice. Zheng Jianguo nodded to Manion with little stars nearby and said, ”Manion, if someone asks, please say that I went to the cafe opposite with my lawyer -”
”If you could bring me a cup of coffee, I would be happy to help you -”
Manion blinked his watery eyes and said that Zheng Jianguo made an OK gesture: ”no problem ~”
”Zheng, considering your identity, I hope to hear you truthfully tell the story. Don't have any reservations about any details and what you said, as well as what others, including the police, said after they appeared -”
Zoe, who left the emergency room one after another with a briefcase, spoke. Zheng Jianguo looked at his side face and felt that he was more handsome than Oliver, the attending doctor in the emergency room. In particular, he knew Qian and felt his temperament. No wonder Manion was so spring hearted: ”actually, The main reason for this is the text message on the pager -- ”
Because Zheng Jianguo had said it two or three times in the morning, and because he was appointed by Augustus, he told the whole story in detail. Even the blonde described the blood in her nostrils when she was shot by an air bag. Zoe, who didn't want to enter the western dining hall, stopped directly, ”Then we have to go to the police station --”
”Now?”
Zheng Jianguo looked at the respectful waiter who had arrived. Unexpectedly, Zoe looked serious and looked at the waiter. Then he turned around and said, ”the nurse wants you to bring her a cup of coffee. Why don't you order a meal for her?”
”Then give them all a drink.”
Remembering that he could not show any ”intention” to Manion, Zheng Jianguo immediately made a decision, but the waiter next to him showed a warm smile: ”excuse me, doctor, do you have any taste requirements?”
”For each flavor - 5 cups, send it to Manion at the emergency room service desk.”
The last time I saw more than a dozen flavors of coffee at dinner, Zheng Jianguo quickly took out his wallet: ”how much is the total?”
”185 dollars -”
The waiter reported the figures almost without pause. Zheng Jianguo subconsciously took out two Franklin, but remembered that the $15 tip was too much. Then he twisted out one with his fingers, took out a fifty-two ten dollar note and put it in front of the waiter: ”what's more is your tip -”
”Thank you! As you wish -- ”
The waiter still accepted with a warm smile. Zheng Jianguo turned his head and looked at Zoe next to him. They went out of the western restaurant one by one and went to the police station. Only after taking a new note and signing a discretionary agreement with him, Zoe said after leaving the police station: ”Zheng, remember not to tell others about your incident in the future, Especially the saying that you almost hit people because you are distracted. After all, you are a doctor - no patient would want to meet a distracted doctor. ”
”Thank you!”
”Didi ~”
