Chapter 98: Chapter 98, Premeditated Murder

Chen Ping’an shook his head, ”Director Wang’s vehicle was severely damaged, the driver died on the spot, and Director Wang was critically injured, now in a deep coma.”

After pausing for a moment, he continued, ”The car accident happened last night, and it’s been eight hours since then. It was discovered by an early morning sanitation worker who reported the case.”

”The vehicle involved is a dirt truck. The driver was driving under the influence, which led to the accident. He was arrested by the police while still snoring in his vehicle, completely unaware of the crash.”

Xu Wendong’s brows furrowed, ”Is the case really that simple?”

Wu Mei whispered, ”But, the small golden bars in the car are missing.”

Xu Wendong clenched his fists, eyes glinting with a cold light, ”So, this isn’t just a simple traffic accident!”

Wu Mei, ”Unfortunately, the surveillance in the incident area broke a week ago. We have no idea who picked up those golden bars.”

At this moment.

Ding Yao came running with Xu Wendong’s white coat.

Xu Wendong quickly put it on and then went to the rescue room, pressing the intercom button, ”This is Xu Wendong from the Chinese Hospital. Please open the door.”

The door to the rescue room slowly opened, and Xu Wendong entered. He needed to participate in the rescue; he couldn’t let Director Wang become a pawn in their game with the Shengpeng Group.

”What is the patient’s current condition?” Xu Wendong asked politely.

The doctors knew of Xu Wendong’s name and his life-saving abilities, so they didn’t belittle him.

A middle-aged man, over fifty years old, said, ”The patient’s ribs are fractured in multiple places. We are performing thoracotomy. In addition, the fatal injury is the blood clot in the brain. We are trying to drain it, but the results aren’t promising.”

Normally, severe cranial blood clots are best treated with craniotomy, but the patient’s condition was too severe to endure such a procedure.

”Okay, you handle the fractures, and I’ll heal the blood clot in the patient’s brain.” Without another word, Xu Wendong moved to the operating table, extending his hands and using his True Qi to massage Director Wang’s head.

The force was strong, making everyone watching anxious.

But.

The patient’s heartbeat fluctuated, and his blood pressure showed a significant increase compared to before.

With Xu Wendong’s massage, the blood flow in the drainage tube accelerated, releasing gray blood.

”The patient’s intracranial pressure has decreased and is back to normal,” the nurse recording the surgery announced with a joyful sound, like a heavenly melody, relieving everyone present.

They knew that as Xu Wendong drained the blood clot from the patient’s brain, the patient was saved, and their work would be much easier.

”All right, I’ll leave this to you guys. I’m leaving now.” Xu Wendong left a word and exited the rescue room.

Although he was a practitioner of traditional Chinese medicine, he acknowledged some merits in Western medicine. At least in the field of surgical orthopedic treatments, Western medicine was more effective than Chinese.

After coming outside, he called Wu Mei and Chen Ping’an over and said, ”Director Wang’s life is saved, but he is gravely injured. I’m afraid someone will parachute into his position.”

Chen Ping’an’s expression was grave, ”If that’s the case, we’ll lose our chance at this project.”

”I’ll make a call first.” Xu Wendong walked aside with his phone and called Deng Wencheng, briefly explaining the car accident and Director Wang’s severe injuries.

After pondering for a moment, Deng Wencheng said, ”The position of city construction bureau chief is critical for a city’s development and planning. With Qingyuan’s current state, there’s no suitable replacement.”

”A parachute appointment is certain, but don’t worry. I have a friend in the city political department. I’ll help you inquire, and within a few days, you’ll have information about the newly appointed leader.”

Despite Deng Wencheng’s assurance, Xu Wendong still felt a foreboding sensation. Since they dared to target the city construction bureau leader, they must have planned well.

It was likely that the incoming leader, parachuted into the city construction bureau, might be an ally of the Shengpeng Group.

If that were the case, their situation would be quite passive.

”Sister Ding, I have some matters to attend to. Could you please ask for a day off for me?” Xu Wendong handed his white coat back to Ding Yao and then told Chen Ping’an, ”Let’s go, take me to the scene of the incident.”

”There’s no point in going.” Chen Ping’an looked dejected because the police had already been there and hadn’t found any useful information.

”Others may find it useless, but not necessarily me.” Xu Wendong’s face displayed a mysterious smile.

Even so, Chen Ping’an didn’t argue further, driving a BMW 7 Series with Xu Wendong and Wu Mei to the scene of the incident.

”Are you trying to recover those stolen golden bars?” Wu Mei couldn’t help but ask.

Xu Wendong nodded, ”Yes, if we can find those stolen golden bars, we can trace them back to the true culprit. If we have solid evidence proving this was the Shengpeng Group’s doing, we could overturn the situation and potentially destroy them.”

Conspiring to harm the city construction bureau leader was a serious crime, not to mention that last night’s accident resulted in the driver’s immediate death. Even if the parachuted leader had ties to the Shengpeng Group, they wouldn’t dare collude with them at this time.

Half an hour later, the three arrived at the scene of the incident. The location was somewhat remote, at the intersection between South City District and East City District, with few vehicles passing during the day.

”Director Wang’s car was found in that ditch,” Chen Ping’an pointed to the ditch over ten meters deep below the road, where traces of the accident could still be seen.

Xu Wendong surveyed the surroundings and asked, ”Have you checked the surveillance cameras around here? Any suspicious vehicles or individuals?”

Chen Ping’an shook his head, ”We checked, but found nothing suspicious. Honestly, if those gold bars hadn’t disappeared, I would have thought it was a simple traffic accident.”

Wu Mei sighed, ”Since they dared to act so ruthlessly, they must have a meticulous plan, leaving no evidence.”

”Is that so?” Xu Wendong’s face showed a slight sneer, ”They think they’ve covered all their bases, but they’ve left a fatal flaw.”

Chen Ping’an and Wu Mei exchanged glances, seeing confusion in each other’s eyes.

”Director Wang is their fatal flaw,” Xu Wendong spoke with a sly grin, ”I know you two are curious, but Director Wang will give us the answers we want.”

Upon saying this, he produced a strand of black hair, which he had deliberately taken when treating Director Wang.

He sat cross-legged, and under the incredulous gaze of Chen Ping’an and Wu Mei, he pinched the spell with one hand, embedding it into the strand of hair in his palm. Following this, the strand of hair began to slowly float...
