Chapter 437 Undercurrent

  The roaring police car broke the calm of the mental hospital.

   The dean greeted him with trembling fear, "Police... Police officer... Our hospital has complete procedures, it's not a Sanwu hospital... I don't know why the police officer came to visit late at night, why?"

   Li Ling, who was wearing a neat police uniform, did not change his face, was solemn and solemn, and stared at the calm hospital building, but it was only after nine o'clock in the evening, and the entire hospital was plunged into darkness, and it was a little strangely quiet.

   is like a huge tomb.

  The cold wind swept across his back, terrifying to the point of terrifying.

   "Take me to see the patient of 404."

   Hearing 404, the dean shuddered subconsciously and asked cautiously, "Police officer, it is not convenient for 404 patients to see outsiders."

  Li Ling showed the police card, "Any citizen has the obligation to cooperate with the police investigation, do you think so?"

   That look is very threatening.

   Dean's little heart trembled, and turned around resignedly: "Come with me, police officer."

   After taking two steps, he said cautiously, "I don't know what happened to the patient of 404? Is it serious?"

  Li Ling didn't answer him, and the dean didn't dare to say more after seeing his indifferent look.

"Officer, the patient of 404, has some brain problems, has a tendency to self-mutilate, always banging his head against the wall, we can't use a rope to tie people up, she is a human being, not an animal, so after a long time, she looks a little scary. , the police officer had better be mentally prepared..."

   "Open the door." Standing at the door of Room 404, Li Ling said coldly.

   The dean took out the key, and after some fiddling, the heavy iron door was slowly pushed open, and a cold damp air mixed with the musty smell of decay came out, making people feel sick.

  Li Ling pushed open the iron door with a blank expression and walked in.

   Rather than a ward, a prison would be more appropriate.

   There is only one bed and one toilet in a place the size of a slap. Apart from that, there is nothing extra.

  The one-watt light bulb above the head exudes a faint light, flickering like a ghost, adding to the horror atmosphere.

   On a wooden bed against the wall, there was a person curled up, a scrawny person who, at first glance, looked like a skeleton.

  The man was motionless, as if he had been dead for a long time.

   The dean coughed: "She... her health is not very good, it's just a few days."

  Li Ling suddenly looked up at him.

   The dean quickly waved his hand: "It has nothing to do with me, it costs money to treat her, because the person who brought her has given up on her."

  Li Ling walked over and leaned over to probe the woman's breath, her sword brows furrowed.

   He made a quick call.

   "Doctor Bo, please send an ambulance quickly..."

The dean kept explaining: "Police officer, this person was a lunatic when he was sent here. We are all people in our mental hospital. Her family members have never seen her again after paying the money, and they don't care if she is sick. , I recently thought about contacting her family members to discuss her funeral, but I didn't know that her family members' phone calls could not be reached at all, and our hospital has done her best to keep her up until now."

"That's right." The dean seemed to suddenly remember something: "In the middle of last month, her family members came to see her, she was a woman with a lot of style, and at first glance, she was not an ordinary person, and I thought it was strange at the time... "

  Li Ling pulled out a photo from his phone. "Is it her?"

   Dean suddenly slapped his thigh: "Yes, it's her, a very energetic woman, I will not admit it wrong."

  Li Ling lowered his head silently and looked at the scrawny woman in front of him.

   "Li Chan." He called out in a low voice.

The words    seemed to possess some kind of magic power. The moment the voice fell, the eyelashes of the unconscious woman trembled slightly, and she opened her eyes with difficulty.

   It was a pair of turbid and vicissitudes of eyes, full of exhaustion and weakness, numb and empty, like a ghost that had just crawled out of hell.

   "Li Chan." Li Ling shouted repeatedly.

  The woman suddenly grabbed his arm, her skeleton-like fingers penetrating into his flesh like iron hoops, like a blood-sucking evil spirit, trying to tear a piece of flesh from him.

   The woman opened her mouth, but there was only a hoarse dry roar in her throat, and her turbid eyes showed a bit of anxiety, which made her old pine-skin-like face tremble slightly.

   "You must have something very important to say, right? You must hold on. I will take you to the hospital first." Li Ling calmly said.

   The woman's eyes showed a bit of brilliance, but her body couldn't stand it after all, lying on the wooden bed panting heavily.

   After a short while, Bo Yuxun arrived with emergency personnel. When Bo Yuxun saw the bony woman, his pupils suddenly shrank.

   "Li Chan."

  Although the woman has changed, she is neither a ghost nor a ghost, but she can recognize it at a glance by the eyebrows, eyes and facial contours.

   He quickly stepped forward to check the woman's current situation, his sword brows furrowed.

   "Systemic multiple organ failure accompanied by liver ascites, must be rescued immediately, put on a stretcher, hurry up..."

  Bo Yuxun took people away, and he came and went in a hurry.

  Li Ling was about to leave. When he reached the door, he subconsciously turned around and looked around the room. This small room the size of a palm was visible to the naked eye. Several holes were ripped out of the wall at the head of the bed, and it was stuffed with rags.

  Li Ling thought for a while, then turned around and walked in.

  —

   When Li Ling came out again, the dean smiled cautiously: "Officer, is there anything else that needs my cooperation?"

  Li Ling glanced at him lightly, and for some reason, the dean's heart jumped subconsciously.

   "Yes, so Principal, come with my police station."

   The dean's face instantly collapsed, and he stammered: "Police officer... This is not necessary, I... I didn't do anything wrong."

   "Substance abuse, or illegal detention?"

   With Li Ling's voice, the dean's face became whiter and paler, his body swayed, and he almost lost his footing.

  Li Ling's face was cold and strode away: "Take it away."

   The police walked over and put the handcuffs on the dean's wrist. The dean shouted at Li Ling's back, but in vain, he was forcibly taken away by the police.

   And this mental hospital was closed down after that.

"Li team, Li Chan's household registration information was declared dead thirteen years ago and was cancelled. She also has a twin sister, Li Juan, who was killed in a fire thirteen years ago, and her family of five perished in the fire. It was determined by the local police as an accident back then, but now, the fire is very suspicious."

  The whole family was killed that year. Naturally, no one pursued the source of the fire. The police closed the case hastily, and even the archives that were sealed were too lazy to perfunctory.

   The other party is too confident, thinking that after so many years, no one will pursue it.

  Li Ling squinted his eyes: "Continue to check, you can start with the neighbor's house next door back then, it was raining that night, how could there be a fire."

   Muzi on the opposite side of the phone was stunned: "Captain Li, so you have already read the file."

This is also the biggest loophole in the dossier. It rained heavily in the first half of the night. Affected by the extreme weather caused by the greenhouse effect, the winter came very early that year, and even there was an extremely rare snow day in the south. Hiding under the covers and listening to the sound of the rain, no one knows when the rain will stop.

   When the neighbor woke up in the morning, he found that the next door had been burnt down by the fire, and only the ruins were left.

  The neighbor was the first to call the police. After the police arrived, they set up a cordon at the scene, and the case was hastily closed that day as an accidental fire.

   Five lives disappeared like this.

  Muzi hung up the phone and started to investigate Li Juan's former neighbors. Although there have been changes for more than ten years, in the era of big data, it is still very easy to find someone with a police system.

   On the other side, Li Ling rushed to the hospital, and Li Chan was being rescued.

  Li Ling waited for half an hour before Bo Yuxun opened the door of the emergency room and walked out.

  Li Ling walked over immediately: "How is it?"

  Li Chan is the only clue so far.

  Bo Yuxun was wearing a mask and surgical cap, with only one pair of eyes showing. At this moment, his brows were furrowed, and he looked a little worried.

   "It was delivered too late. All her organs have failed. It is a miracle that she can survive until now. Now it can only be seen how strong her will to survive is."

   This is Bo Yuxun's only hope at present.

   He hopes Li Chan is alive more than anyone else, but as a doctor, he knows how hard she has lived, and perhaps death is the only relief for her.

  Bo Yuxun suddenly thought of a person, and hurriedly took out his mobile phone and made a call.

  Twenty minutes later, a middle-aged woman came in a hurry. She walked so fast that she didn't notice that her coat was reversed.

  Li Ling fixed his gaze on the woman's face.

   "Doctor Bo, where is my sister?" Li Juan cried out anxiously.

  God knows how excited and surprised she was when she received a call from Dr. Bo saying that her sister was still alive. After more than ten years, her sister finally got news.

   But looking at the ICU ward behind Bo Yuxun, Li Juan's face gradually turned pale, and her dry lips trembled slightly.

   "My sister... is she all right?"

  Bo Yuxun sighed: "The situation is not very good."

  Li Juan covered her mouth and squatted on the ground crying bitterly.

  Bo Yuxun squatted down and patted her shoulder lightly: "Don't worry, I will try my best to save her."

  Li Juan knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Bo Yuxun without hesitation, "Doctor Bo, I beg you to save my sister, I will repay your kindness as a cow and a horse, I beg you..."

   "Get up quickly, you two sisters have been affected by Axue. If you are reasonable, I will definitely protect you all, and in the case of your family's annihilation that year, I will definitely seek justice for you."

  Li Juan raised her head blankly, tears still hanging on her face, she murmured: "Doctor Bo, can I really get justice?"

  Bo Yuxun's eyes were firm, and he said decisively: "Definitely."

  Li Ling said in a deep voice beside him: "The sky is wide and there is no omission. As long as you commit a crime, no matter how many years you have passed, you will be punished by the law regardless of your identity."

  Li Juan wiped her tears and stood up: "Doctor Bo, can I go see my sister? Maybe she will wake up when she sees me."

  Bo Yuxun nodded: "I'll arrange for someone to take you in."

   At this moment, Li Ling's cell phone rang rapidly, he said sorry, took his cell phone and walked to the corner to connect.

   "Li team, a man named Chu Wei made a scene at the police station and insisted on taking Miss Bo away."

  Li Ling squinted his eyes, his subordinates would not need to call him for instructions on such trivial matters.

   "What is his identity?"

   Muzi sighed: "Mrs. Shen's nephew."

  Li Ling frowned subconsciously: "Wait for me, I'll make a call."

  Mr. Shen has always been low-key and never interfered in these messy things. How could his nephew be involved with Bo Yujiang?

   Bo Yujiang's identity is suspicious. If it is what he guessed, it is likely to be a trap. He must test Shen Shaojian's attitude.

   "Hello, Mr. Shen, I'm Li Ling." Li Ling went straight to the point.

   "It turned out to be Officer Li, looking for me so late, what's the urgency?" The other party was supposed to be eating, and Li Ling heard the crisp collision of tableware and chopsticks.

"I'm sorry to bother you so late. Here's the thing. There was a case of intentional wounding in Dechang Building this afternoon. The murderer has been arrested and brought to justice, but just now Mrs. Zun's nephew came to the police station to make a scene and insisted on taking the murderer away. , when we police cases, we only talk about evidence. If anyone can interfere with the judicial system, where is the dignity of our police and where is the safety of the common people? Of course, Mr. Shen has always been honest and clean, so it is impossible to condone relatives to make troubles, I think it should be just a Misunderstanding, I heard that Mr. Shen is about to return to Jingzhou. If it affects Mr. Shen's reputation and reputation, I think it will probably be more than the loss for Mr. Shen."

   After a moment of silence, the man's low voice came from the phone. Listening carefully, he seemed to be suppressing some kind of anger.

   "Thank you Officer Li for reminding me, I will handle this matter properly and hope it won't cause any trouble to Officer Li."

   Hanging up the phone, Shen Shaojian slammed his chopsticks on the table, and snorted coldly, "It's really your good nephew, you will cause trouble for me as soon as you come."

   Mrs. Shen on the opposite side was stunned, "Awei? What can he cause?"

   "What's the matter? Li Ling's phone calls came to me. He went to the police station because of a woman. That woman was also a murderer, and he lost all my old face."

   Mrs. Shen was taken aback: "How is it possible, Awei he..."

   Thinking of how Chu Wei left in a hurry, Mrs. Shen seemed to understand, "Why is Wei so confused, I said why he came to Jiangzhou suddenly, it turned out to be for a woman, it really **** me off."

   It's nothing for the sake of women, if it affects his little uncle's future, then it's absolutely wrong.

  Which is more important, Mrs. Shen can still tell.

Shen Shaojian told the secretary to deal with this matter, and Mrs. Shen wiped her mouth and stood up; "I'm going with Xiao Zhou, Awei's child has a muscle in his head, and he can't easily get him down. A woman who is so fascinated by her looks like a fairy."

   Mrs. Shen hurried away in the car, Shen Shaojian frowned, always feeling very uneasy, as if something was going to happen.

  Under the calm sea, there is a deep undercurrent surging.
