“Found it.”
Suddenly, Emily shouted and pointed at her mother’s forearm.
“Second aunt, look, my mother has a fresh needle hole here. And I remember that she hasn’t had any injections for the past two days.”
When Liz heard this, she immediately turned to look at her forearm. As expected, she saw a tiny needle hole on it. It was obvious that it was a wound to draw blood.
Moreover, from the traces left behind by the needle mark, if they had searched a little later, the wound would have healed automatically.
Welsh looked at the two people, who were stunned on the spot and only cared about their shock. He said, “Drawing blood from your mother’s hand isn’t something that everyone can do, right? In addition, the time is so close. You should be able to find some clues.”
“The hospital. It must be the staff of this hospital! Only they have the chance to draw my mother’s blood.” Emily raised her suspicions and felt that her suspicions were correct. “No wonder they always look helpless. It turns out that they don’t want to cure my mother’s illness at all.”
Liz, who was at the side, also felt that it made sense.
Needles were medical devices. Other than doctors and nurses, it was very difficult for others to come into contact with them.
It was very likely that her sister was harmed by the doctors and nurses of this hospital.
“Go and call the director of this hospital over. I want to know who has come into contact with my sister in the past few days.”
“Yes…”
Liz immediately ordered the bodyguards outside the door.
Five minutes later, all the staff members who had come into contact with Emily’s mother in the past few days were called over.
In order to prevent the possibility of collusion, Liz even asked the bodyguards to immediately separate them for questioning.
Very soon, the results of the questioning were out.
All the doctors and nurses had bodyguards by their side when they diagnosed Emily’s mother. It was impossible for them to have the time to do anything.
In other words, the suspicion of these doctors and nurses had been temporarily removed.
Emily looked at everyone present and said with an agitated expression.
“If it’s not the doctors and nurses, then who hurt my mother?”
As she spoke, she even started to break down and cry.
Welsh stepped forward and gently pulled her into his embrace. He slowly caressed her back and comforted her.
Seeing that they could not find any clues, even the calm Liz was a little overwhelmed. She held her forehead with one hand and sighed.
Welsh did not expect that the murderer was not from the hospital.
He looked at the surrounding environment and found that it was almost sealed. It was impossible for someone to enter the room quietly under the heavy surveillance.
???
Surrounded?
Welsh suddenly raised his head and remembered that other than doctors and nurses, there was another type of person who could get close to the room.
He patted Emily’s back and asked softly, “Do you know the details of all the guards in the hospital?”
Liz’s eyes immediately lit up when she heard Welsh’s explicit reminder. She kept scanning the people around her.
None of the bodyguards present dared to look directly at her. They all lowered their heads and kept quiet.
“Who among you has been in contact with the Madam in the past two days? Step forward!”
No one dared to step forward.
Liz asked again.
“Or do you know who has been in contact with the Madam in person? Point out… Point out and you’ll get two million dollars!”
There was still no response.
Just as Liz was about to lose her patience, a bodyguard raised her hand shakily and pointed at the head bodyguard. The woman who had stopped Welsh from entering.
“Chris! In these two days, only Chris has come into contact with Madam alone, and only she has the experience of going out.”
Liz immediately looked at Chris with a dangerous gaze when she heard that.
Under Liz’s gaze, Chris seemed to have lost her spine and collapsed to the ground.
“Madam, please spare me. I have my own difficulties, I didn’t mean to betray you.”
Liz asked coldly, “Why?”
“They took my daughter, I had no choice… the most important thing in my life is my daughter.”
Listening to the bodyguard’s description, Welsh had a rough idea of the situation.
Her husband had lost a large sum of money in a poker game and had no money to pay off his debts. The other party then took her daughter away.
Just as she was about to call the police, the other party gave her a choice. When Emily’s mother was in a coma, they wanted her to take away some fingernails and blood. After the deed was done, they didn’t have to pay back the large sum of money.
She thought it was not a big deal as they only asked for some fingernails and blood, so she did as what she was told. She did not expect the consequences to be so serious.
Looking at Chris’s pitiful tearful look, and recalled that she had risked her life for their family before…
When Emily and Liz heard this, they felt a little sorry for her.
Looking at their relaxed attitude, it seemed like they were going to let the other party go. Welsh suddenly said indifferently, “No wonder you stopped me from coming in. It was also the other party’s instructions, right? Not letting any strange doctors come near…”
After hearing Welsh’s words, Liz’s eyes immediately lit up.
“That’s right! If Emily had not insisted in bringing Welsh, who had some skills and ability, her sister would have already died. I also heard that she had chased away many strangers in the past few days. She definitely didn’t want my sister to receive treatment!” Liz thought to herself.
Thinking of this, Liz’s gaze, which had started to calm down, became fierce once again.
Actually, what she didn’t know was that chasing away all those strangers was the embodiment of Chris’s competence.
Because it was impossible to meet anyone casually on the street, and hoped that person would be like Welsh, a mage or other superpowered person.
But once the seed of doubt was planted, it would immediately take root and sprout at an incredible speed. It would quickly grow into a towering tree.
With Welsh’s words, now no matter how Chris explained, Emily and Liz would no longer trust her.
That’s how humans were. Once they had doubts, they would be like a thorn, forever stabbing into their hearts.
It was like an apple. On the surface, it still looked intact, but the flesh had long been infested with worms.
Chris started to explain.
“No, wasn’t it your order not to let anyone get close?”
Liz thought, “When did I ask you to stop the doctor?”
But her face did not show it, instead she was even more enthusiastic and went forward to help Chris up.
“Yes, I know. We still believe in you. Just tell us first, who did you hand over the fingernails and blood to? So that we can quickly find it back.”
Chris was very happy when she heard that her master still believed in her. She immediately told her everything that she knew. She even looked at Welsh with a smug look as she spoke.
He sneered in his heart when he saw her smug look.
“You’re still so happy when you’re about to die.”
She did not notice that Liz was only asking about the whereabouts of the nails and blood. She did not mention anything about her future arrangements.
