This Doctor Is Too Wealthy

Li Jianwei asked cheerfully, ”Why have you decided to organize an event in the courtyard?”

Du Heng gave a wry smile. ”The number of people coming in and out of our Hospital is quite small, so if we hold an event in the courtyard, it can improve visibility and also provide ample space. But who could have foreseen this hideous weather? Last night, the stars were radiant, but this morning, it turned out like this. Sigh, we’ve already planned to change the venue to the main conference room; we can’t possibly let our leaders get drenched in the rain.”

Within two minutes of entering the conference room, Wu Buwei rushed over to Du Heng. ”Big brother, My Dad and the Dean from the Second Hospital are here.”

”Alright, I’ll go greet them.”

Du Heng responded with a smile, then hastily excused himself from Li Jianwei and the others, and hurried downstairs.

He really couldn’t understand. Other hospitals also frequently hold such Project inaugurations, but he had never seen these people so keen to participate. Why is it when it comes to his Projects, these people take the initiative? He didn’t invite any of them, yet they all rushed over to attend. Is that fun? Does it make a difference? Why bother? It wastes their time and his energy, with no practical benefits at all; it’s completely unnecessary. But what can be done about it? If they showed up today, it means they were giving face. And he must accept that favor.

With a helpless sigh, Du Heng quickened his pace.

At that moment, Du Heng was busy rushing around. Similarly, Wu Shengnan and his team, who had been holed up inside the car all One night, were growing anxious as well.

Because the person they were tailing was slowly running towards the bank of the Yellow River.

The reason for their nervousness was because one of the Victims was suddenly attacked while jogging that morning.

The site of the attack was just past the senic line’s range and happened to be a blind spot for surveillance cameras. Additionally, the path included a lengthy stretch of River Dike Road, giving the murderer plenty of room to escape.

Watching the jogging man slowly move, Wu Shengnan had already left the Car, following from a distance, pretending to be a jogger himself. The remaining three teammates stayed inside the car, maintaining the longest possible distance from Wu Shengnan as he kept running, on and on.

Half an hour later, the man returned and brushed past Wu Shengnan. Seeing Wu Shengnan jogging in leisure clothes, the man couldn’t help but take a second look. However, once he saw Wu Shengnan’s handsome face, the man gave a friendly smile.

After jogging all the way back and watching the man return home, they waited another Half an hour. The man then emerged, dressed, and drove his Car to work.

The young guy watching the disappearing figure voiced his doubts, ”Did we follow the wrong person? He looks like a white-collar professional at first glance. Everything seems too normal, doesn’t it?”

Wu Shengnan shook his head gently. ”According to the surveillance footage we checked, this person happens to pass by every time an incident occurs. It can’t be just a coincidence.”

”But after tailing him these past few days, his routine seems perfectly normal. He goes for a morning run and a night run, sticking to it unswervingly no matter how late he gets home from work. Maybe he just happens to pass by?”

Hearing the young guy’s words, Wu Shengnan fell silent.

But he is the only Suspect who fits the description now. If they overturned this conclusion, not only would all their previous work be for nothing, but they would also have no leads for their future actions. But if they knew this man was the wrong target and still insisted on following him, then they would be wasting time and energy, potentially allowing the real killer to escape. But what if this man really is the killer, and they give up tailing him? What will happen if the killer strikes again? The responsibility then would be enormous.

Maybe Leader Zhang also understood the problem, so he didn’t participate in the discussion among the three of them. Instead, he was staring at the place where the Suspect disappeared with a frown.

At this point, the young guy suddenly suggested, ”Did we expose ourselves, causing the Suspect to be on alert?”

Wu Shengnan still shook his head lightly. ”That’s even more unlikely. We change our Cars and personnel every day, and we keep a significant distance. A person without professional training simply wouldn’t notice they were being followed.”

The upset young man leaned back in his chair. ”If it’s not this, and it’s not that, then where exactly is the problem? If this person is indeed the pervert, even if he doesn’t commit any crime now, he should still go and see his trophies, right? Would he really go through all the trouble of stealing underwear only to throw them in some deserted place? He’s definitely a person with peculiar fetishes, which is why he collects these things. It’s been such a long time now. How can he resist not taking a look, admiring these things?”

Wu Shengnan also seemed a bit disheartened, leaning back on the rear seat and saying, ”Yes, this is the most inexplicable part. We’ve investigated his home and his office at the company but found no trace of these items. Where could he have hidden them? Did he really throw them away?”

Then, the previously silent and seemingly drowsy Hao Hongxia suddenly spoke, ”What if the perpetrator isn’t this man, but rather a woman?”

The young man poked his head out from the front seat and asked curiously, ”Why would you make such a guess?”

Hao Hongxia shook her head gently. ”It’s not a guess, but a deduction after watching the surveillance footage.”

”Wow, our beautiful detective has come online.” The young man looked at Hao Hongxia with a teasing smile. ”Come on, let our Master’s in criminology guide me out of confusion.”

Hao Hongxia gave the young man a scornful look but proceeded with her guess. ”When we were checking the surveillance footage, in addition to this man being constantly present, a woman also appeared three times. Isn’t it possible that the felon could be this woman, not this man?”

The young man scoffed dismissively. ”I thought you had some brilliant insights. So that’s all you’ve deduced.”

Hao Hongxia looked at the young man defiantly. ”Am I wrong?”

”Of course you are,” the young man replied straightforwardly. ”Firstly, why would a woman use such perverse means against another woman? If so, it should be targeted criminal behavior, not random Victim selection like the current situation. You probably didn’t pay attention during the briefing. The only thing these Victims have in common is that they all live nearby.”

The young man smirked confidently and continued, ”Secondly, the woman in the surveillance footage is tall but thin, and among the Victims, there are also those who are as tall as this woman. So can you explain how a thin woman would subdue another woman of similar height and build?”

Simultaneously, Wu Shengnan also shook his head. ”This deduction is not suitable. We have visited the woman; she is a bar lady in a nightclub. She has neither the means nor the motive to commit the crime.”

Hao Hongxia stopped talking and then languidly lay down in the back seat. ”Forget it. Let’s wait for the next shift. I need to get back to sleep.”

”You’re right.” The young man returned to his seat and looked at Leader Zhang, who had been ignoring them. He whispered softly, ”Leader Zhang, ask Brother Yu when they will arrive. I’m falling asleep.”

However, much like the night before, Leader Zhang completely ignored the young man and continued to gaze out the window.

This reaction immediately made the other three, who had experienced this before, grow tense.

”Leader Zhang.”

”Leader Zhang?”

”Leader Zhang?”

The escalating tone did not elicit any response from Leader Zhang until the young man once again reached out and gave a slight tug. Leader Zhang slowly turned his head.

After repeatedly confirming the matter, all four people inside the car became frantic, especially Leader Zhang himself, who disbelievingly kept probing his ears.

He couldn’t hear anything. He really couldn’t hear anything. Sitting in the Car with no external injuries, no warning signs, no hearing impairment, he just couldn’t hear anymore; he couldn’t hear the faintest sound.
