Chapter 123 Uneasy Sleep
"It's okay to say nothing, but Dacheng, if someone invites you to dinner, we won't join in the fun. You have to treat us."

This was the last sentence Xing Lihua left before going home, which made Li Yancheng not know whether to laugh or cry.

Even if Luo Min really wanted to invite him to dinner, he wouldn't be able to go. It would be hard to explain if a man and a woman went out to eat alone.

but……

This girl is really pretty, but her figure is a little skinny.

Li Yancheng smacked his lips with some regret. If he could grow into an S-shape, then...

Oh no, I can’t think about it anymore. I can’t think about it anymore.

He quickly shook the image out of his mind. If he continued thinking about it, he would not be able to sleep tonight.

Speaking of which, life alone just lacks some fun. In the previous life, at least I had a son to play with, but in this life I am really a single dog, so should I find one?

Who to look for?
Luo Min’s little bean sprout?
Hey, in a flash, Li Yancheng's thoughts wandered off again, and he suddenly thought of the word Jin Zhihai had just said: exile.

Will her father be able to have smooth sailing on his trip to Shanghai?
You know, the Shanghai market is just as unstable as the Beijing market. It can even be said that the situation there is even worse than here.

Just like the initiative of not taking holidays during the Chinese New Year, it was the people over there who first came up with it. If you work there, you could really fall into a bottomless abyss if you are not careful.

He had a vague impression of the old man of the Luo family's future. It seemed that he was still in office after the reform and opening up, but he couldn't remember whether the process was smooth or not.

After all, there are too many people. If they are not particularly famous names and I am not someone who specializes in this, I can’t remember many of them.

After lying on the bed and thinking for a while, Li Yancheng really couldn't come up with anything. He shook his head and drove the matter out of his mind.

No matter what the process is like, the result is always good. Such a big figure, there is no need for him to worry about anything.

I should think about myself carefully. It’s time to find someone who can talk to me at night.

But who should I look for?

Should I look for it myself or ask someone to introduce me?

As he was thinking like this, he gradually fell asleep, and when he was about to fall asleep, a beautiful figure appeared in his mind, and he tried his best to chase it.

I don't know how long it took, but I finally caught that figure. Although her appearance was a bit blurry, I could tell she was a beauty. It's a pity that her figure wasn't her favorite S-shape.

Just when he was about to have a more in-depth conversation with this beautiful woman who didn't have an S-shaped figure, the sound of banging on the door that echoed throughout the alley woke him up from his sleep.

The sound of banging on the door made Li Yancheng's heart beat faster. Just when he sat up and prepared to listen to whether someone was knocking on their yard door, he heard footsteps in the yard, followed by shouting.

"Dacheng, Dacheng, come quickly, your colleagues come and find..."

"Doctor Li, I'm Sun He."

Before Old Zhao in the front yard could finish his words, another voice was heard. Hearing that it was Sun He from the Investigation Department, Li Yancheng put on his clothes faster.

"Come to Sunhe, come out immediately."

He pulled up his trousers, not even bothering to put on socks. He put on his cloth shoes, grabbed the short-sleeved shirt that was hanging on the back of the chair with one hand, put it on his shoulders, tied his trouser belt, and walked towards the door.

By the time he opened the door and went out, his trousers were already on. He took off the shirt on his shoulders and started putting it on. At this time, the lights in the east and west wing rooms were on.

"Sun River"

"Doctor Li, I'll tell you the details on the way. We're in a hurry, the sooner the better."

"Okay, Uncle Zhao, please help me close the door."

"Okay, go ahead and get going."

When Jin Zhihai came out of the house, the only one left in the yard was Lao Zhao, who was about to help Li Yancheng close the door.

"Uncle Zhao, has Dacheng left?"

"Let's go, Zhihai, isn't the unit where Dacheng is seconded also in your bureau? Why are you so anxious in the middle of the night?"

"The job responsibilities of our two departments are different, and I can't say for sure."

"Will Dacheng stay in this department in the future?"

After helping to close the door of the main house, Lao Zhao walked up to Jin Zhihai, took out a cigarette from the pocket of his shirt and handed it to him.

"That's even harder to say, but I think I can probably stay."

"Hey, then our yard will have two of you as police officers from now on, won't it be safer?"

"I don't know whether it's safe or not, but I can't even sleep well at night."

"Uh... That's right. Okay, Zhihai, go to bed early after you finish smoking. I'll go ahead."

"Uncle Zhao, take care."

"get it"

"Brother, Dacheng was called away at night, nothing will happen, right?"

Watching Lao Zhao walk through the second door, Jin Zhihai turned his head to look at the dark main house and sighed silently. Just as he was about to throw away the cigarette in his hand, Jin Wenning's little head popped out from behind the bamboo curtain of her house again.

Hearing what his sister said, Jin Zhihai walked over unhappily and poked her forehead with his finger.

"What are you thinking in your little head? If someone calls you Dacheng, it must be because someone is injured or has an emergency and needs his attention. It can't be anything else."

"Oh" Ningning stuck out her tongue, smiled and retracted her head.

"Brother, I'm going to sleep."

"Go to bed quickly."

Standing there and watching the lights in his sister's room go out, Jin Zhihai threw the cigarette in his hand to the ground, put it out with his foot, and then walked into his own room.

As he entered the house, the lights in the two rooms on the east wing were turned off one after another, and the entire backyard fell into silence again. There was only one person lying on the bed with his eyes wide open in the dark, unable to fall asleep.

……

"Doctor Li, Deputy Director Zhong just called me and asked me to send you to the Public Security Hospital. He said there's a very important person there who needs your attention. Director Zhong only said on the phone that the person was poisoned, and didn't say anything else."

The Public Security Hospital was relatively close to Li Yancheng's home, and Sun He was driving. Before he could finish his words, the car had already turned into the hospital with its gate open, still the small two-story building in the corner of the hospital.

Unlike the previous two times when the car could be driven directly to the front of the building, this time there were several armed guards standing in front of the two-story building, and the car was stopped before it could drive past.

"Doctor Li, they are from the security department of the bureau. Please ask them to look at your work ID. I won't go in because I have to go back to my duty."

"Okay then. Thank you for your help, Sun He."

"It's my duty." After pushing open the car door and getting out, Li Yancheng took out his ID from his trouser pocket and handed it to the security guard.

The security guard took a closer look under the street light, verified it, and returned the document to Li Yancheng, saluted him.

"Doctor Li, Deputy Director Zhong asked you to come directly to the small conference room on the first floor. He will be waiting for you there."

"Okay, thank you."

After putting his documents away, Li Yancheng nodded to the security guard and walked towards the entrance.

The sound of the car attracted the attention of the people in the building, and when he walked to the entrance of the staircase, someone came out to greet him.

When Li Yancheng saw someone coming out, he paused, because it was dark outside, but there was a light in the corridor, so he couldn't see clearly who it was.

"Doctor Li, thank you for your hard work. I called you here so late."

As soon as the person inside opened his mouth, he knew who it was.

Li Xueyi, the director who has not left his post yet but has not been to another place.

"Director, on the way here, Sun He told me that someone was poisoned."

Li Yancheng didn't pretend to be righteous and say things like it wasn't hard and it was all for work. He asked directly and to the point.

"Well, there's a doctor in the ward right now. I'll tell you a few things before you go in."

Director Li walked out of the building, grabbed Li Yancheng's arm and walked him a few steps to the side. After stopping, he took out a cigarette from his pocket and gave it to him.

Li Yancheng was a little dazed by what he did. On the way here just now, Sun He drove the car almost flying, so it seemed that he was not in such a hurry now.

After lighting a cigarette, Director Li turned his head and looked around, then lowered his voice and said, "Doctor Li, Deputy Director Zhong is in the ward, Director Fang may still be on the way, and it is not clear who else will come.

When you enter the ward later, don't ask anything and don't say anything. Just go and check on the poisoned patients. If they can be cured, you don't need to ask anyone's opinion, just start treating them. If you feel unsure, just back off. No one will force you to treat them.

Do you understand what I said?"

Although he understood what he heard, Li Yancheng had more question marks in his head.

What the hell is this? What does it mean that if you can cure it, just do it, and if you are not sure, then retreat? Does it mean that if you are not 100% sure, then don't treat it?
Perhaps he saw the confusion in Li Yancheng's eyes, Director Li took a puff of cigarette and continued: "The situation of the injured is very complicated. You and the young man from the public security task force are brothers, and you should have heard that the person who was poisoned in the ward now is the suspect in the task force at that time, Chen Guangyao.

Just now when the Second Division was interrogating him, he suddenly became dizzy and vomited for no apparent reason. He has now fallen into a coma. The doctor who was rescuing him just did a gastric lavage..."

Li Yancheng could no longer hear what Director Li said next. When he heard the name of the poisoned person and the symptoms of poisoning, his heart skipped a beat.

The Second Department must have been keeping a close watch on Chen Guangyao, so how could he have been poisoned?
Also, the symptoms of poisoning... No way, they can’t be the same as Zhu Yongxiang’s, right?

If it is really the same, then doesn't it mean...

Thinking of this, Li Yancheng's face changed. He didn't care about anything else at the moment and quickly turned his head to look around.

"What's wrong, Doctor Li?" Director Li also noticed that something was wrong with Li Yancheng, so he stopped talking and asked with a frown.

"Director, did Xiaotong tell you about the situation of the criminal he brought back from the Beijing Suburban Prison?"

"Beijing Suburban Prison?" Director Li was slightly startled. "Are you talking about the Zhu brothers?"

"Yes, the eldest of the Zhu brothers, Zhu Yongxiang, was also poisoned during the day."

"I hear... Hmm? Doctor Li, you mean..."

"Director, I don't mean anything. I just wonder if there is any connection between them. But it's not certain. The poison that Zhu Yongxiang was poisoned with is definitely not fatal. The purpose of poisoning him is still unknown. I initially suspected that this was a play he directed and acted out.

But now Chen Guangyao has also been poisoned, so it's hard to say. It also depends on what kind of poison Chen Guangyao was poisoned with. If the two of them were poisoned with the same poison, then there must be something fishy going on. You'd better have the guards nearby be more strict."

Li Yancheng did not say whether there would be any problems with the people in the building. It was not his place as a seconded doctor to say that. Director Li had rich experience in handling cases and I believed he could think of it.

"Come on, I'll take you in and let you see Chen Guangyao's condition." Director Li didn't say anything, he just threw the cigarette in his hand to the ground, motioned Li Yancheng to follow him, then turned around and walked into the building.

Seeing this, Li Yancheng hurriedly threw away his cigarette and followed.

……

There were not many people in the ward on the first floor, only Deputy Director Zhong and a middle-aged man who was about the same age as Director Li. Judging from his aura and how dark his face was, he should be the Director of the Second Department, Hong Dingguo.

There were also two middle-aged doctors and a female nurse in her thirties.

There were two doctors, one standing at the foot of the bed with a serious look on his face, and the other standing on the left side of the bed with a stethoscope, listening to the heartbeat of the poisoned person lying on the bed.

There was a large bucket on the ground to the right of the bed. There was a lot of vomit in it, basically liquid with foam. The original color of the vomit could not be seen because of the foam.

The face of the poisoned man was blue and black, which was quite similar to the condition of Zhu Yongxiang after he was poisoned during the day. If you didn't look carefully, you couldn't see the rise and fall of his chest while he was lying there. He was breathing in more than out, and it looked like he was about to die.

Hearing the sound of the ward door, several people in the room turned their heads and looked over. When Director Zhong saw Li Yancheng following in, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he raised his hand and waved, motioning him to come over.

Li Yancheng took a look and hurried forward.

Seeing him coming, Director Zhong pointed to the bed and said, "Doctor Li, go and take a look. Don't worry. I will take care of any problems that arise."

"Yes"

Following Director Zhong's words, the doctor who had been listening to Chen Guangyao's heartbeat put away his stethoscope, nodded to Li Yancheng, and took a few steps back.

Since the leader had given the order, Li Yancheng didn't hesitate and walked directly to the bedside and grabbed Chen Guangyao's right wrist.

At this time, the director of the Second Division, who was standing at the back, moved to the side of Director Li and whispered in his ear, "Old Li, is this the doctor that the new director of the First Division asked to be seconded?"

"Well, despite his young age, his skills are pretty good."

"How do you know it's good? Didn't you just get here?"

"Well, he has already taken action twice since he arrived, and brought the case in Xiaotong's hands back to life."

"What did you say? Didn't they say the suspect was dead and all clues were gone?" Director Hong looked confused.

"He was dead, for sure. But he was forcibly woken up by Doctor Li before he died. He gave us 20 minutes to question him, so the clues were not completely lost."

"This... is this possible? I remember that the director of the surgery department of the military hospital said that the man would never wake up again, didn't he?"

Director Li curled his lips and said, "The fact is that the person was indeed awakened, in Room 1. Director Fang, Director Zhong and I were all present at the time and saw it with our own eyes. We also personally participated in the questioning of the suspect.

Otherwise, why do you think Director Zhong asked him to come over and take a look as soon as he came in? "

"I..." Director Hong stared at Li Yancheng who was taking his pulse with wide eyes. His mouth moved but no words came out.
