"Ying Mingyu, how about I go by myself and you go handle some private matters?" Fang Jinshi saw the man next to him stop and followed his gaze to see the scene in the coffee shop, then gave him this suggestion.

"Wait for me for a moment."

Ying Mingyu went straight into the store. He didn't have the patience to wait until he got home to settle the score with her.

Lu Qianqian finally took her hand out of Ye Shaojun's hand. She felt someone approaching their table and turned around to see the unexpected person.

"Xiao Yingying?" Lu Qianqian was startled and almost tripped when she stood up.

Ying Mingyu supported her smoothly.

"I was passing by on business. What did you say? After that, go back early. I'll go home for dinner tonight." Ying Mingyu looked at Ye Shaojun for a while as he spoke. He didn't expect that this man would be so difficult to get rid of, let alone that Qian Qian would be so brainless.

Go on a date with him.

"Qianqian, I'll take you home." Ye Shaojun got up and went to the door to pay the bill.

Lu Qianqian grabbed Ying Mingyu's sleeve and walked slowly out the door, trying to explain a few words, but for a while she couldn't think of how to say it.

"We'll talk about it when we go home. I still have something to do." Seeing Ye Shaojun come over after buying the bill, Ying Mingyu finished speaking briefly and leaned over to kiss Lu Qianqian. After getting up, he said to the man, "Please give Qianqian a gift."

Go back and treat you to dinner next time I have the chance to thank you."

In the coffee shop in broad daylight, Lu Qianqian really suspected that the man was a foreigner, and followed Ye Shaojun out with a blushing face.

This time Lu Qianqian sat in the back seat and cleaned the large and small bags she bought after getting in the car.

"Qianqian, I'm sorry, I was...a little excited just now."

"It's okay, I understand. Don't worry, Xiao Yingying won't be angry with me. And... I hope you can listen to what I just said and consider it carefully. No matter what, we are all friends, and I hope you can

Have a good time."

"Thanks."

After that, the two of them were silent all the way.

Fang Jinshi watched the situation outside for a while and found that her fiancé was indeed right. Ying Mingyu and Lu Qianqian were completely immature and jealous when they were together.

"If you are in a bad mood, will it affect your decision on the case?"

"I'm fine." Ying Mingyu's face looked a little smelly, but it wasn't particularly serious.

Zhou Tao's mother, Ms. Cui Ying, is fifty-eight years old and is in good health except for some presbyopia and rheumatism.

"Are you friends of Xiao Tao? Are you here to send him a wedding invitation?" Ms. Cui asked them with a smile after asking them to sit down and pouring water for them.

Fang Jinshi glanced at the men next to him. They looked like an unmarried couple. They seemed to be thinking about things day by day and dreaming about things at night. The old man in front of him had probably been counting on his son to get married and start a family.

"We are the police, and we want to ask you about some past events." Ying Mingyu took a sip of water, thanked him, and got straight to the point.

"Police?" Aunt Cui was surprised and laughed after looking at them.

"Aunt, we want to ask you about your husband Zhou Mingfa's death in the Second Hospital twenty years ago." Fang Jinshi pushed forward.

Cui Ying was stunned for a moment, and then slowly spoke.

"Twenty years ago, a long time ago. It was a sudden illness. I remember he came back from work the night before and said he didn't feel well, so he went to bed very early. He still felt uncomfortable when he woke up the next day, so I went to ask for leave from his boss.

, and then went home to make lunch... Everything was normal, as before. But at four or five o'clock in the afternoon, he suddenly felt very uncomfortable. He seemed to have trouble breathing and couldn't speak clearly..."

"It happened that Xiao Tao came back from school, and I and I hurriedly put his father on the cart at home and pushed him to the hospital for treatment. I still remember that it rained heavily that day, and Xiao Tao helped me push the cart with one hand.

Holding an umbrella in one hand to help his father protect him from the rain. I can’t forget that scene to this day.”

The woman wiped her tears when she said this.

Fang Jinshi was a little moved. Although what Cui Ying said had nothing to do with the case they were investigating, they did not interrupt her.

"Mingfa was in pain. We cheered each other up along the way. Finally, when we got to the hospital, a smile appeared on Xiaotao's rain-stained face. We thought that a doctor would be able to help us right away."

"That's not the case, is it?" Fang Jinshi answered.

Cui Ying nodded: "Before I went out, I brought all the money at home. Unexpectedly, they said the operation would cost 5,000 yuan, and we were still short of half. I asked them if I could pay that much first and wait for someone to save me.

When we come back, we will make up for it."

"The charge office said that we should ask the doctor. If the doctor agrees, it will be fine. They are only responsible for charging and have no right to decide these matters. Xiaotao and I went back to the doctor to ask for help, but he refused to say anything. I turned around at that time

Seeing Mingfa's face turn pale, I felt that the situation was not good, so I pulled Xiaotao to kneel down and beg him, but he still said no."

"Later, Dean Ge came to help you, right?" Ying Mingyu interjected and asked.

"Yes, that dean was really nice. Although Mingfa was not saved in the end, I was still very grateful to him. And he also advanced half of the surgery fee to us. Later he left, Ge Yuan

The director said that the money should be regarded as the funeral expenses compensated by the hospital and he did not ask us to pay it back."

"That's why your son studied medicine and went to work in the previous hospital, right?" Fang Jinshi brought the topic back to the present.

Cui Ying smiled happily: "Xiao Tao is very up to date. I remember that Dean Ge was still there when he went for internship, and we even went to say thank you together."

"I heard from Dean Ge that Dr. Zhou still visits him occasionally. You miss him very much."

Hearing what Ying Mingyu said, Cui Ying sighed with emotion: "To us, he was our great benefactor. At that time, we were impoverished and Mingfa was gone. The only warmth we could receive from strangers was that one.

"

Both of them nodded in agreement.

"Do you know the name of the doctor who refused to give you first aid back then?"

"It's been so many years and I can't remember. I guess your surname is Dong or Fang?"

"Now that doctor himself is hospitalized, and your son happens to be his attending doctor. Has he ever mentioned this to you?"

Cui Ying was very surprised and asked after a while: "You are asking about what happened so many years ago. Could it be that something happened to that person? Do you suspect that it was my son who did it?"

Fang Jinshi saw that the woman was wary and said bluntly: "In fact, the person who died was the only son of Dr. Dong who refused to save your husband back then, and your son was indeed the one who stabbed him to death.

It’s just that we are still investigating whether it was intentional homicide or self-defense.”

"Xiao Tao...killed someone?" Cui Ying was stunned for a while.

"Aunt Cui, I know it may be difficult for you to accept, but we still want to ask, do you think Zhou Tao would deliberately kill his enemy's son?"

"Calling an enemy is a bit much. Even if Dr. Dong delayed treatment, it doesn't mean he was the cause of his death... Besides, Xiao Tao is a doctor, and his goal is to be a good doctor like Dean Ge.

How could he kill someone? It’s impossible!”

"Yes. Your son Zhou Tao has indeed realized his dream. He often helps patients who come for medical treatment. He is a good doctor as good as the original Dean Ge." Ying Mingyu did not deny this, he just did not think that this matter

What conflict does it have with Zhou Tao's murder?

"Aunt Cui, we are just suspicious now. If you have heard anything from Zhou Tao, we hope you can tell us the truth. In addition, if Zhou Tao has really done something, we hope you can persuade him to surrender." Fang Jinshi said.

After finishing, he glanced at Ying Mingyu.

Although I don’t know if starting from Cui Ying can open up Zhou Tao’s mouth, but maybe a person who values ​​​​family affection will find out from his conscience. After all, Zhou Tao is not a heinous person. From a certain perspective, he is a very good person.

people.

Seeing that Aunt Cui looked uncertain, she probably wouldn't say anything more to them, so the two said goodbye and left.

"You go back and see Qianqian. I'll go back to the bureau to handle the other matters." Fang Jinshi was a good person and did her best, and the person waiting for her happened to be in the bureau.

Ying Mingyu glanced at her: "In your eyes, I am just henpecked, right?"

Fang Jinshi raised his eyebrows, got into the car and fastened his seat belt, and replied to him: "Aren't you?"

Ying Mingyu had a breath stuck in his throat and drove back to the police station.

Not long after Zhou Tao's questioning ended, they met outside the courtyard gate.

"How about it?"

"Boss, deputy captain...you can see for yourself, that guy has already thought about what to say."

Ying Mingyu took the document and sat down. When he opened it, he asked at the same time: "Is there any news from the hospital?"

"Not yet." Ding Yuan replied simply.

"Okay, you go back from get off work first."

Fang Jinshi went to find Fan Hua, Ding Yuan finally didn't have to break the appointment with his girlfriend, and Meili also finished packing and went home to take care of her daughter.

Ying Mingyu took a quick look, and they asked again about the reason for the conflict between Zhou Tao and Dong Changgeng. He initially maintained his original statement, but he did not change his story until they told them about what happened twenty years ago.

Zhou Tao said that it was Dong Changgeng himself who knew about the incident, which led to the quarrel in the ward. Dong Changgeng questioned him and he admitted it, so Dong Changgeng took action.

They did not reveal Dong Changgeng's friend's confession for the time being. They only asked more about what happened twenty years ago, and asked him in detail what happened in the ward that morning. Of course, they also asked when he went to the ward for rounds, and what time he was waiting for.

How long.

There was not much difference between what he told his mother about the past, but he was very vague about the time. He first said it should be about half past seven, but then changed his mind and said it seemed like he went there at eight o'clock.

When asked how long he had been there, Zhou Tao said that so many things happened that day that he was dizzy and had no memory.

The whole thing makes sense, including the parts where he lied. But lying repeatedly about conflicting reasons is enough to prove his guilty conscience.

After closing the file, Ying Mingyu called Bao Zhan and learned that they had finished the work and had found nothing for the time being.

At this point, Ying Mingyu felt that he had done everything he should do. It was already past the time to get off work. No one would say anything if he left now.

Unfortunately, Fang Jinshi was complaining about this afternoon to Fan Hua.

"I believe you. Ying Mingyu is really out of his mind when he meets Lu Qianqian."

"It's like I bumped into you." Fan Hua was packing his things and was about to leave.
