Reborn Cat Sheriff

Chapter 210 Sun Chang Hospitalized (Bonus Chapter for Yu Mi's Second Donation)
Jiang said a lot, but whether it's true or false remains to be determined.

For example, he said he really disdained money, so afterwards he had the idiot clean up the public toilet and gave him all the cash as payment.

Fortunately, the fool was diligent. He worked hard all night carrying water back and forth, finally cleaning the dry toilet spotless so that no one would notice the bloodstains, smell, or suspect anything.

From this perspective, the logic seems to hold water.

But... how did Pei Qian and his wife receive those two hundred yuan counterfeit bills?
According to the interrogation, Jiang's dilapidated motorcycle was indeed damaged after it was used to dispose of the body and had been repaired at Pei Qian's repair shop. Jiang acted very generously and even generated over a hundred yuan in revenue for Pei Qian, which he paid with the two counterfeit bills.

But the problem is, didn't he not take that money? Or did the car break down because it was transporting a body, so he asked the idiot for another two hundred dollars?
Isn't that a bit petty?
Clearly, Jiang was not as magnanimous and professional as he appeared, and there must be many things he hadn't revealed. Even the true nature of his relationship with the mentally challenged man is questionable and requires DNA testing to prove.

However, once the police found the murder knife among the more than thirty pig-slaughtering knives at the pig farm that had been used to kill someone, the identity of the murderer could at least be confirmed.

As for the other piece of evidence, the bag used to transport the body... This thing wasn't at the pig farm, and it could easily expose the case. It was a nuisance that could cause a huge mess, giving the city bureau leaders a lot of headaches.

Of course, these things had nothing to do with Lingo.

The case is almost clear, although there are still many things to deal with and many unclear points that need further investigation, but at least the murderer has been identified.

Moreover, the dangers encountered along the way, the complexity of the case, and the difficulty of solving it were all readily apparent. Although the perpetrator's confession was brief, the Zhuzhou police's ability to solve the case in such a short time demonstrates their utmost effort.

Lin Ge played a significant role in the investigation, and many of the cases were largely due to his efforts in identifying the murderer. However, this doesn't mean the police were incompetent. Behind the scenes, their hard work helped Lin Ge eliminate incorrect options one by one; everyone worked very hard.

The case is now closed.

In the first murder case, the perpetrator, Jiang, was formally arrested, and it was only a matter of time before the truth of the case came to light.

The second murder case can be investigated once Wu Laosan is discharged from the hospital. The interrogation can begin, the other murderers can be identified, and warrants and arrest warrants can be issued for their capture.

That's basically the end of Lingo's mission.

However, he couldn't leave Zhuzhou City or return to Zhanghe Police Station for the time being. Because Sun Chang's situation was a bit more complicated than expected, Lin Ge had to wait until she recovered and was discharged from the hospital before he could go home with her.

"Heh... Who would have thought that catching a thug could lead to appendicitis? Now look what's happened, he's had a stab wound in the stomach, and he's definitely going to have a scar."

Sun Chang lay on the hospital bed, her expression a mixture of shame, anger, and embarrassment. Seeing Lin Ge staring intently at her, she turned to look out the window and muttered, "I'm not even married yet, and I already have a scar on my stomach. What if people think I had a C-section? My reputation will be ruined!"

"..."

Lin Ge lowered his head speechlessly, powerless to refute Sun Chang's stupidity. Just how ignorant must someone be to not be able to distinguish between an appendectomy scar and a C-section scar?
And what was this girl thinking, having her appendix removed alone in the hospital? Who signed the consent form for her? The Zhuzhou Public Security Bureau is treating it as a work-related injury and covering all medical expenses, so you just abused your power to have an extra surgery on yourself, right?

Is this how you take advantage of someone?

This means I'll have to stay at least another week before I can go back. Damn it!

"Sister, here's your white rice porridge."

Luo Jue walked in from outside, carrying a bowl of plain porridge from the cafeteria. Sun Chang, who had just undergone surgery the day before, could only eat this and had to be taken care of by a teenager. It was unclear whether she felt even a little bit embarrassed.

"Thank you, Juejue!"

Sun Chang smiled at Luo Jue, then glared fiercely at Lin Ge before carefully sitting up and slowly eating the white rice porridge.

"Sister, the doctor said I can only eat after I pass gas."

Luo Jue couldn't help but remind her.

"I'll let it go! Oh, stop talking, it's ruining my appetite."

Sun Chang waved her hand dismissively, glared at Luo Jue with displeasure, then slurped up a mouthful of rice porridge, a satisfied smile spreading across her face. The two, human and cat, watched quietly as she ate, licking the bowl of white rice porridge clean as if it were a delicious meal. Still not satisfied, she looked at Luo Jue pitifully, but this time Luo Jue ignored her.

Helpless, Sun Chang had no choice but to give up, glaring angrily at the naughty child and the naughty cat with an adorable "I'm angry" expression.

"Sister, I secretly heard on my way here that you made a great contribution this time. When the case is officially closed, the Zhuzhou Public Security Bureau will send the commendation letter directly to our Zhanghe Police Station! It will be a big commotion and quite a spectacle."

Luo Jue had somehow learned to change the subject, and his personality was becoming more and more like that of a normal child.

"After all, it came at the cost of all these injuries!"

Sun Chang glanced down at the outline of the blanket again. The wound on her stomach, which still ached faintly, filled her with both pride and worry.

Does this mean we can't wear crop tops anymore?
Lin Ge didn't complain; when did appendicitis wounds become something to be considered heroic scars? Seeing that Sun Chang wasn't in a good mood, he refrained from telling her the other good news.

Seeing that Sun Chang started nodding and dozing off shortly after finishing his meal, Lin Ge quickly signaled Luo Jue to lower the hospital bed so that Sun Chang could take some time to rest.

Just then, Qian Wei suddenly walked in, chuckling and greeting people as he carried a bouquet of flowers. No one knew what he was thinking, but he actually gave Sun Chang a huge bouquet of white roses, instantly dispelling Sun Chang's sleepiness.

"I don't like older men!"

Sun Chang stared at Qian Wei with a serious and earnest expression, making his stance clear without any hesitation.

"I don't like immature, bratty girls either!"

Qian Wei was even more blunt, his words making Sun Chang's pretty face turn bright red. He smiled and placed the bouquet on the bedside table, then casually waved his hand and said, "Don't overthink it, I just happened to help a delivery guy. He was delivering flowers for a florist, but the couple was having a fight, so the flowers weren't delivered. The guy wanted a refund, but the florist disagreed, putting the delivery guy in the middle. I happened to pass by and said a few words of justice, and the guy chickened out and paid, but didn't want the flowers, so the delivery guy gave them to me. Hehe... isn't this just using flowers to offer to someone else? It would be a waste to throw away such beautiful flowers, so I'll leave them here for a couple of days; it'll make the atmosphere a bit better."

"You gave me a bouquet of flowers that had been cursed by a couple who broke up?"

Sun Chang's thoughts were inexplicably twisted and incomprehensible; she glared at Qian Wei and immediately lost her temper.

I thought about throwing the flowers away, but when I looked back, I still liked them and couldn't bear to part with them, so I could only groan and choose to ignore them.

Seeing that Qian Wei was lingering and wouldn't leave, she pouted and complained, "Brother Qian, what have you been doing these past few days? You weren't there when I needed you, isn't that a bit too much? If you had helped me back then, I definitely wouldn't have gotten hurt and have scars!"

"Hehe... I helped deal with that guy named Wu Laosan! That old bastard's a shrew, he stayed in the hospital and refused to leave, stubbornly refusing to go to the cell to confess. The Zhuzhou police are a bit afraid of trouble, but I'm not. I dragged him out and slapped him twice, and he immediately behaved himself. Hehe... These days, good people are afraid of bad people, and bad people are afraid of wicked people! Anyway, I'm not a Zhuzhou policeman, so he can't complain about me, making it perfect for bullying people."

Qian Wei spoke proudly, seemingly very pleased with what he had done.

Lin Ge, standing nearby, couldn't say whether this was a good thing or a bad thing. As the country's legal system becomes more robust and stringent, police brutality is decreasing. For ordinary people, this is certainly a good thing; they no longer have to worry about being bullied by corrupt police. However, for criminals, police weakness often emboldens them, making them completely unafraid of what the police can do to them.

Often, cases that could have been handled promptly become complicated, and crucial clues and information that could have been readily revealed through hardship are delayed due to the interrogator's evasiveness and blatant lies, sometimes even worsening the situation.

In situations like these, the presence of troublemakers becomes extremely necessary.

They don't care about being punished or criticized, so they're perfect as henchmen.

Why did Nie Guoqiang let Qian Wei go unpunished? Because Qian Wei was incredibly useful when it came to taking the blame. Plus, Qian Wei was also someone who enjoyed taking action against criminals; the two hit it off immediately, becoming a kind of unconventional but perfect alliance.

My hand is about to break from writing.

But to be honest, I was still very happy to receive the tip.

It's not just about money; it's more about recognition. Even top earners who make millions a month crave a few alliance leaders, and I, a nobody, am no exception.

I'll check the typos later, take a breather first.
