Chapter 1234 - 738: Unlucky Doctor Daoter (3)
Just as she’d expected, that thing flashing silver was a vial of injection!
Back in the villa’s basement that day, the vial she used to inject Zan Wenliang was exactly like this. She was absolutely confident in her eyesight—this one and that one should be the same.
Up to now, all Zan Wenliang had confessed was that the one who gave him the injection was Doctor Daoter. As for where the man lived, where the lab was, he had no clue.
They’d tried every method on him and still couldn’t squeeze out any useful information. That could only mean Zan Wenliang really didn’t know where Daoter was.
And now this man pushing a cart along the road at midnight had on his cart the very injections Zan Wenliang and the others treated like treasure. Could he be Daoter’s subordinate?
But someone as mysterious as Daoter, how could he be so careless as to let people transport the injections like this? In that split second, she’d already felt out five or six vials. Of course, there were other bottles and jars on the cart as well; no clue what was inside them.
Right now, whether she called Zhang Chaoyong’s people or Director Lei’s people, it would all be too slow to quench a present thirst. Which meant she had to handle this herself.
But at this point, trying to get rid of Liu Yumei and Liu Yulong seemed impossible. As far as her and Zhao Qianqian’s assignment went, most of it was already done. What was left was to find the place where the injections were made and gather solid evidence of the mastermind’s crimes.
Once the mission was completed, they didn’t need to reveal their identities. They just had to find a reason to be transferred away, and no one would think twice about it.
But now, if she wanted to interrogate this man, she had to let Liu Yumei and Liu Yulong know who she really was.
This was a risky move. Before things were clear, anything could happen.
Now that it was right in front of her, retreating was impossible, so she might as well push forward.
During the slow process of standing up, Luo Ye’s mind was racing through all this. "Luoluo, you okay? Did you strain your back? Try moving..." Liu Yumei’s questions came faster and faster, one after another.
"I’m fine." Luo Ye gave her a faint smile and straightened up. The man glanced at her, said nothing, lifted the cart, and started picking the things up onto it.
"Sir, could you tell me where you’re going, wheeling this around in the middle of the night? And what exactly is on the cart?" Luo Ye stared straight at the man and asked.
"My family runs a night clinic. We ran out of medicine, so I’m out getting stock." The man replied in a muffled voice.
Luo Ye smiled. "You’re kidding, right? Your family runs a pharmacy and you need to go out in the dead of night with a wheelbarrow to restock? If we rolled the clock back a few decades, maybe I’d buy that."
"You girl are really unreasonable. You almost hit me just now, and I haven’t even gone after you about that, yet you’re the one coming to hassle me. This world, really, you can run into all kinds of people." The man’s voice was full of anger.
"Luoluo, let’s hurry and go find Qianqian. It’s almost midnight." Liu Yumei tugged anxiously at Luo Ye. "Come on, whether this guy’s from a pharmacy or not, what’s it got to do with us?"
"Sister Liu, wait a second." Luo Ye grabbed the man’s wrist in one move. He howled like a pig being slaughtered from the pain. "Let go of me! Let me go!"
Hearing him yell like that, Luo Ye grew even more certain. If he were really innocent, at this point he’d definitely be shouting for help. Not daring to call for help meant he had a guilty conscience.
"Enough, drop the act. I’ll be straight with you: I’ve seen the kind of injection you’ve got on this cart. There’s no way a small pharmacy could get their hands on it. Tell me exactly how you got it, every last detail, or you can forget about pushing a wheelbarrow alone on a dark road ever again. The food inside those high walls and barbed wire—do I really need to remind you what that tastes like?"
...
Thirty minutes later, led by the man, Luo Ye and the siblings Liu Yumei and Liu Yulong arrived at an abandoned factory building. "It’s in that room up ahead." The man pointed at the nearest derelict house.
"Clank!" The handcuffs snapped shut hard on the man’s wrists. "Brother Liu, Sister Liu, wait for me in the car." Luo Ye spoke as she sprinted forward.
"Meimei, your... your coworker..." Liu Yulong’s lips were trembling so hard he could barely form the words. Honest as he was, his brain still hadn’t caught up.
That girl who looked like a white magnolia, how did she suddenly start handling a case like a cop? On the way here, he’d pinched himself countless times, and the sharp pain made it clear this wasn’t a dream.
"Bro, don’t ask me. I don’t know either. But I do know this much: what you shouldn’t ask, don’t ask; what you shouldn’t say, don’t say. That’s how you live longer." Liu Yumei’s voice sounded vague and distant.
