Reborn in the Eighties as a Housewife with a Space

Chapter 825: Chapter 819: Why Hasn’t The Doctor Arrived Yet_1

“What did you say? You just mentioned you were closest to him, did you notice anything unusual, anything particular?” Qin Xue asked the civilian who spoke up.

“There was nothing special, he fell right by my feet and that’s when I turned to look at him.” The man replied after hearing Qin Xue’s question.

“Did the leads dry up again?” Qin Xue said, somewhat disappointed.

“Master, earlier someone saw a man dressed in black arguing with him, something about not wanting to do it anymore, saying the gang leader had been good to him and he couldn’t betray him. they parted on bad terms, and not long after, this man was attacked.” Xue Ling whispered this as she approached Qin Xue.

“Did you see Chu Molin, does he know about this?” Qin Xue asked Xue Ling.

“I didn’t see the master, did he go asking for clues too?” Xue Ling had come from the opposite direction and had not seen Chu Molin, maybe he had been on a different corner all along.

...
“Let’s wait for him here then, he should be near.” Qin Xue thought Chu Molin would come back if he couldn’t find any leads.

Indeed, it didn’t take long for Chu Molin to return, but he did not look good.

“What’s wrong, did you fail to get information or did something happen?” Qin Xue asked when she saw him.

“This incident likely resulted from a gang dispute.” He was certain after learning about the situation, but when did Imperial Capital start to have such a brazen gang, daring to commit assaults right under their noses?

“That makes sense, Xue Ling just mentioned someone saw him arguing and mentioned something about a gang leader, and now you’re saying this, it’s highly probable this is about a gang dispute. So what do we do now?” Qin Xue watched Chu Molin return from gathering intelligence, but the ambulance hadn’t arrived yet.

“Do you have any good suggestions?” Chu Molin asked Qin Xue.

“I don’t have a solution, I can’t operate on him in public.” Qin Xue gave him a glance.

“No way.” Chu Molin declined without thinking, he wouldn’t consider anything that could threaten his wife.

“Then we can only wait, is the hospital far from here, Chu Molin? Why hasn’t the ambulance arrived yet?” Qin Xue asked Chu Molin, usually it shouldn’t take so long.

“It’s not far away, something may have happened to Xue’er and the others.” Chu Molin had also considered this problem before, he thought of carrying the injured person to the hospital to save time.

But he didn’t move the person as his wife hadn’t given the green light yet, to avoid causing more harm, he was also worried about the situation here and didn’t know what was happening elsewhere, so he didn’t go to check.

Even the police hadn’t arrived after such a long time, given that this is the center of Imperial Capital, it would normally be well staffed, but they were nowhere to be found. Was this a personnel allocation issue or someone’s doing? This made Chu Molin a bit suspicious.

“Move aside, the doctor’s here.” Someone in the crowd shouted.

“Chu Molin, speak of the devil, and he appears.” Qin Xue raised an eyebrow at Chu Molin.

“What took you so long to get here?” Chu Molin didn’t answer Qin Xue’s question but questioned the doctor instead.

“We had a bit of an accident on the road, so we were delayed.” The doctor casually replied to Chu Molin’s question after hearing it.

“What happened?” Chu Molin’s heart sank, it was indeed as he thought.

“Someone had scattered lots of broken glass on the road and we couldn’t get through. We had to sweep all the glass clean before we could pass.” The nurse replied to Chu Molin’s question while helping the doctor treat the injured.
