C79 (2/2)

”Hm!” ”I know, Grandmother,” I said. ”I'll keep the passbook and the jewelry.”

I glanced at the door again, but there was no sign of movement.

”Grandmother, are you thirsty? I'll go out and get you some hot water to drink. ”

I took the opportunity to open the door of the ward. I wanted to see who was outside.

There was no one outside, and the two men who had escorted me up were sitting in chairs on the other side of the room, chatting.

He ran away?

I went out of the room to see if there were any suspicious signs, and the two men immediately followed me. I thought that I wouldn't be able to get rid of the two of them, and maybe even cause a senseless argument to arouse Wen Xuan's suspicions, so I let the two of them follow me.

I only took a look in the nearby corridor. The place was small, and there weren't many patients at this time of the year. I saw that there didn't seem to be anything suspicious, and I was worried that the person who followed me would return and say that my unfathomable trip made Wen Xuan think twice about it. I even slowly bought a piece of bread to eat, pretended to eat breakfast, and pretended to come out to eat, before returning back.

I went back to the door and knocked on it to say hello before I went in.

Old Madame Deng seemed to have gone to sleep, as quiet as a lifeless doll.

As I sat quietly by the side, I thought to myself that at least I would be able to let the old man sleep peacefully again.

But I soon noticed that the old man was so quiet that he didn't even move his breath.

Without even thinking about it, I tried to catch my breath, and was startled. I immediately sent for a doctor, but it was too late.

Wen Xuan also came up and pulled me to the side, telling me not to be afraid.

However, the me right now wasn't in the mood to listen to Wen Xuan's words. I wasn't overly shocked or grieved in my heart.

I didn't respond to Wen Xuan's comforting, and immediately told him, ”I must see the Old Madame Deng's death.”

Wen Xuan was also stunned by my words, but he still agreed, and promised to tell me the truth.

I wanted to tell him: You know the truth.

That's right, I suspect that Wen Xuan thinks that the Old Madame Deng does not know Xiao Ming's whereabouts and has lost all value in using him, so I dealt with him immediately.

But I knew that some of my paths would have to be paved by this devilish man next to me, and at this moment, even with great hatred and anger, I had no choice but to lower my head.

”Xiao Chen,” Wen Xuan called the Xiao Chen, who had just arrived, over to him. ”Go to the security station and check the time monitoring.”

Xiao Chen was still a little stunned. ”You don't want to wait for the autopsy results anymore?”

”Hurry up.”

Wen Xuan impatiently said two words.

Xiao Chen left hurriedly. I looked at Wen Xuan who was staring straight ahead with a serious expression, does this really have nothing to do with him?

I don't believe it.

Old Madame Deng's kind face, as long as I closed my eyes, I could see it. Although the old man's life was already pretty good, I still felt like my throat had been choked.

I also thought of the Sister Qiu. I didn't take good care of her only kin, so I felt very guilty.

”You only ate a loaf of bread this morning, are you hungry now?”

Wen Xuan asked me with concern as he supported my back.

I saw Wen Xuan's gentle face again, and remembered that look of his.

”I'm not hungry.” I coldly stood up and moved to a place far away from him to sit down. ”I'm fine. Go back to your work, don't worry about me.”

Xiao Chen went over to call Wen Xuan over, he had managed to investigate.

Wen Xuan looked at me complacently, as if provoking me, saying that no matter how arrogant I am, I still have to return by myself.

Yes, I am indeed incapable, and my temper is often greater than my own.

I lowered my head, grabbed my walking stick and insisted on walking over. Wen Xuan really did not pay attention to me this time, he allowed me to fall far away from them without even turning his head back to look at me.

It's nothing.

I comforted myself in my heart and insisted on walking to the place. Entering the house, Xiao Chen had a good look in his eyes, and immediately had someone move a chair over for me, but when the chair was placed on the floor, Wen Xuan immediately went over and sat down, filling the air with an awkward posture that made me feel like I was just about to sit down.

I gritted my teeth and endured the pain, continuing to stand. I was just standing, what's so amazing about that!

The two security guards accepted a small favor and gave us the video records for the time.

The image of me entering the ward, following my two companions for a while, then sitting on a chair to one side, chatting.

After a few more seconds when nothing happened, another person walked up to the door …
