Shen Wuyou slowly drew another tube of blood, and amidst the faint statements of the two men, he slowly began to wash his hands with alcohol gel.
"I'm leaving first." He was not very interested in this and stood up to take his leave.
The two men continued:
"...We were afraid that Cheng Guozhong would give us away, so we decided to silence him."
"Yes! That's it!"
"His antidote has failed. To survive, he'll definitely betray us! If he dies, none of us will live."
"Mm-hmm! Exactly!"
Qin Nishui clenched his fists. He had just finished talking with Cheng Guozhong today, and coupled with the recent investigation results, Cheng Guozhong's poisoning suspicion could almost be ruled out. Yet now these two men...
Qin Ningyi shifted his feet, looking at the two men intertwined. He carefully observed their expressions.
Both men wore serious faces, as if they couldn't be more sincere.
"One last chance." Qin Ningyi approached them, like a bloodthirsty demon.
The two men broke out in a cold sweat. They were sure they hadn't shown any flaws.
If an ordinary person were interrogating them, their performance just now would have been enough to convince anyone.
But now they were facing Qin Ningyi.
Finally, they confessed about a factory.
"We took the doctor's medicine and recovered before coming out to do this."
"The doctor just came a while ago. An old man, a bit perverse."
Qin Nishui had some impression of that factory. They had investigated it. After Ruan Su brought back samples, there were indeed problems, but when they sent people to investigate, everything was normal.
They had people constantly monitoring it and found no abnormalities.
However, the old grandfather who first discovered the illness and Cheng Guozhong both lived downstream of the irrigation canal.
This was indeed a point of suspicion.
The deputy had already sent people to investigate. He left with Qin Ningyi.
Military District Office.
"So, my mom isn't in the hospital?" An'an, completely enclosed in a protective suit, looked up at Zhao Hengyu with a small face.
"You... you you you!" Zhao Hengyu gasped for air. How had he been tricked by this child again? An'an wasn't like this before!!
Zou Xiaoxiao kicked him. "Told you to talk less!"
Zhao Hengyu's eyes widened as he looked left and right. "Grand Auntie, be reasonable. Didn't you ask me to chat with him?"
"Then you shouldn't have spoken carelessly," Zou Xiaoxiao turned her face away.
She had discovered that talking to An'an easily led her to be trapped by his innocent and lively tone, which was why she had asked Zhao Hengyu to accompany him.
Who knew, he was just as useless!
An'an hugged Shenfeng with a look of dejection. "Auntie Xiaoxiao, An'an misses Mommy."
He even had a nasal tone when he said this.
Zou Xiaoxiao certainly couldn't stand seeing such a cute child wronged. "But An'an, it's not safe here. There are viruses in the air. I can't take you running around."
"We'll just go see Mommy, not run around." An'an's round eyes were filled with longing.
Zou Xiaoxiao's heart melted, but this virus infection was no joke. She had just received news that Huo Rou's protective suit was damaged during a fight, and she was now in isolation.
And she was living in the laboratory.
She couldn't possibly take An'an there.
"No, An'an. It's time for your nap. When you wake up, Dad will be back," Zou Xiaoxiao coaxed.
"Will Mommy be here too??" An'an stared into her eyes.
Zou Xiaoxiao blinked. "Yes, she will."
An'an suddenly deflated. "Alright then."
He called Shenfeng and walked into the rest room.
Zou Xiaoxiao gave Zhao Hengyu a look, and he immediately followed. "That's right, Uncle will keep you company."
An'an shook his head. "An'an likes to sleep alone. Uncle, I'll be very good. Call me when Daddy is back."
"Okay." Finally coaxing An'an to sleep, his taut nerves could finally relax. Whatever An'an said was fine. "Go ahead."
He and Zou Xiaoxiao waited outside for a while before quietly going in to confirm. An'an was asleep. They had to go and check the detention room. They heard that Qin Ningyi was "going crazy," and they could go see him and find him back for An'an.
The two cautioned the person outside to keep watch here and left quickly.
After the outside fell silent, An'an opened his eyes in the dimly lit room. "Shenfeng, did they leave?"
Shenfeng wagged his tail and rubbed against his hand.
"Mommy must have run into trouble," he said, sitting on the edge of the bed and resting his head. "She's not in the hospital, and she's not here, so where could she be??"
Based on his understanding of his mother, if he had followed his father here so conspicuously, she would have known the news immediately and scolded him.
She must have encountered trouble. There were viruses everywhere here, and maybe his mother was in dire need of medicine!
"Uncle Shen gave me a lot of medicine..." An'an climbed off the bed, rummaged through his small schoolbag, put it on, and patted Shenfeng's head. "Let's go give Mommy medicine."
"Woof~~" Shenfeng responded with a low whine.
"Can you find Mommy??" An'an asked, not reassured.
Shenfeng wagged his tail, walked to the door, jumped up, and opened the room door.
His actions told An'an: Let's go!
