Epilogue (Part II)
Zhou Wei continued to tell Ling Fan what happened to Liu Haitao back then, and said that a few skinny rats came out of nowhere, perhaps because they smelled blood, they were frantically eating the bodies of his companions, Haitao wanted to bombard them, but he just had more than enough strength and was not enough. He watched as the rats devoured the corpses of his companions, and could do nothing but be frightened.
Until finally, a well-fed mouse unfortunately came to Haitao's hand, perhaps out of the desire to survive, Haitao suddenly grabbed the mouse and ate it raw. First the first, then the second, then the third...... With tears in his eyes, he ate the rats, because he was eating not only the rats, but also his companions indirectly! Later, while waiting for rescue, he ate the rats alive, until finally the firefighters rescued him from the cave, and the rest of the team had been reduced to a white skeleton connected to flesh and bones, and when he was carried out, only a white skeleton remained, and a little bit of minced flesh remained on it.
It turned out that Haitao still planned to work in geology, but he really couldn't stand the strange eyes of his colleagues, although he also knew that he had a companion in his body, but he was a rat that ate it, and his nature was different. But even so, the colleagues around him were still talking about him in groups, and finally Haitao couldn't stand it, so he left the Geological Bureau and used his expertise to open a jade shop.
"Officer Ling, do you know, when Haitao was doing this with me, his heart hurt so much, he cried and told me, until now there are still the spiritual positions of those companions in his home, he knows that if it weren't for them, he wouldn't have been able to escape from that black hole at all." Zhou Wei looked at Ling Fan and sobbed, "But Officer Ling, do you know, because of this, Haitao suffered from severe rodent-phobia. At home he was scared of rats, and sometimes I even joked that he was even more afraid of rats, even more timid than a girl. Every time I said this, Haitao always smiled ugly, and then stopped responding to me. It wasn't until that time that I found out that he was eating rats in the experiment that I realized that he had such a big knot in his heart. This terrible knot was so traumatizing to his mind that he woke up from a nightmare almost every day, followed by a long period of insomnia.
However, since he had eaten the guinea pigs that night, he had not woken up from his nightmare that night, and slept until dawn. Later, I found out the reason from medicine, when a certain thing is fearful, if it can be destroyed or eaten, it will be good for the patient's condition. So every once in a while I asked him to eat the guinea pig man to relieve his condition, only to think that there was a terrible rumor of a rat eater at school. I didn't expect that one of them would be discovered by the doorman Lao Wang, although Lao Wang only saw Haitao's back, but Haitao was still worried, because one day, Lao Wang would recognize his back, and at that time, he would still be arrested, so he killed Lao Wang while you weren't paying attention......"
When Ling Fan heard about Lao Wang, he said, "Then when you killed Lao Wang, why didn't Liu Haitao kill me?" ”
"He said he didn't want to kill innocent people, and even more so police...... Otherwise, his conscience will be even more troubled. Zhou Wei looked at Ling Fan and said.
Ling Fan smiled bitterly and didn't speak, if Liu Haitao killed him that day, would today's ending change, maybe Liu Haitao wouldn't die, he would even hide and wait for the limelight to pass before coming out, but he had become a handful of loess.
"What about Shi Quansheng, he was also killed by Liu Haitao, right?" Ling Fan looked at Zhou Wei and asked.
Zhou Wei nodded and said, "Yes, Shi Quansheng has been pestering me for a long time, although he hasn't done anything out of the ordinary, but it's annoying enough." After I was with Haitao, he not only did not relent, but intensified, which was even more annoying than before. What's even more infuriating is that he once eavesdropped on the conversation between me and Haitao in the back of the hospital room, and knew the secret between us. So he sent me a private message, threatening me that if I didn't obey him, he would leak the secret between me and Haitao, and tell the police that Haitao was the rateater.
At that time, I was very scared, I was afraid that Shi Quansheng would really poke this matter out, if that was the case, I would be nothing, but I was afraid that Haitao would lose his reputation, and he finally came out of the shadow of the past, once the truth was revealed, everything for Haitao would be finished. Then I told Haitao about it, and after some careful consideration, Haitao decided to kill Shi Quansheng to prevent future troubles......"
After listening to Zhou Wei's words, Ling Fan also had a general understanding of the whole thing, although Zhou Wei was not a direct participant, but in the murder of the doorman Lao Wang and Shi Quansheng, she played a supporting role, and she also needed to bear some legal responsibility.
"Okay, that's how things are going to be, Officer Ling, I don't think you came to see me in vain, I'm ready, you can take me back to the police station at any time." Zhou Wei lifted the quilt, looked fearless and fearless, and said.
Ling Fan scratched his head and said, "That...... That Miss Zhou, I'm not here to take you back to the police station this time, I just want to understand the situation, if I really want to take you back, do you think I will come alone, this case has caused a lot of tragedy, I don't want the tragedy to develop again, so I don't plan to take you back to the police station, after all, Liu Haitao is dead, there is no need to involve more people. ”
Zhou Wei looked at Ling Fan as if she was looking at a stranger, and exclaimed, "Officer Ling, aren't you here to leave the police station?" ”
Ling Fan stood up from the chair, tidied up his clothes, then looked up at Zhou Wei, and said with a smile: "I have already said, I am just here to learn about the situation from you, I have no intention of taking you back to the police station, so I also hope that you will not reveal more information about this case to others, in case it causes unnecessary trouble, okay, I still have something to do, I have to go first, you have to take good care of your body, if you need any help, call me, I will definitely try my best to help you." With that, Ling Fan nodded at Zhou Wei, and then opened the door of the ward and prepared to walk out.
"Officer Ling......" Just as Ling Fan was about to go out, he heard Zhou Wei's call.
Ling Fan stood still, turned to look at Zhou Wei, reached out and wiped the tip of his nose, and said with a smile: "Why, do you need my help with something so soon?" ”
Zhou Wei smiled and said, "Thank you." ”
Ling Fan stretched out his hand to wipe his nose, laughed, and said, "You're welcome, you don't have to say thank you to me, this is what I should do, okay, goodbye, we will meet again if we have a chance." With that, Ling Fan left the ward.
Zhou Wei watched Ling Fan leave, and it took a long time to take her eyes back, she looked down at the jade in her hand, and then held it tightly and held it in her heart.
An abandoned warehouse, but inside it is the headquarters of HIT, the special operations group.
When Ling Fan returned to the headquarters, everyone was in the headquarters just now, but there was no Fang Yi, it seemed that it was gambling on the Great Wall in the Chen Bureau again.
"Ling Fan, you're back, by the way, the NDA comparison results of that corpse have come out, it's indeed Liu Haitao." Chen Yuzhen saw Ling Fan return to the headquarters, and hurriedly greeted him and said.
"Oh." Ling Fan just responded, and then sat on the sofa sullenly, without saying a word.
Seeing Ling Fan's lonely appearance, Lao Gu, who was sitting next to Ling Fan, immediately stretched out his hand to wrap his shoulders and said with a smile: "Hey, Ling boy, what's wrong with you, why are you downcast, you have solved the case, you should be happy?!" ”
Ling Fan stretched out his hand and slapped Lao Gu's hand away, and said angrily: "What's there to be happy about, the case was solved by everyone together, if it was just me, I would have died a long time ago." ”
"In that case, what are you frustrating, is there anything bothering?" Chen Yuzhen also asked.
Ling Fan nodded and said, "I'm thinking, whether this Liu Haitao is right or wrong, I'm thinking that maybe it would be better for him to starve to death directly after he was killed, at least there won't be such a deplorable thing as today." ”
"Maybe you're right, but who could have predicted everything in the future, and under the circumstances, he only had two choices, to die first, or to live, other than that, he had no way out, if the situation at that time was mine, I think, I would have made the same choice as him." Chen Yuzhen looked at Ling Fan and said.
"Perhaps......" Ling Fan looked up at the window, looking at the clear sky, the future is the future, it is precisely because no one can predict it preparedly, so it is full of mystery and yearning.
Later, Ling Fan suddenly received an invitation card, which was an invitation card for a jade store, as if it was the opening of a new store, and the store name was "Haiwei Jade Shop."
After some inquiry, Ling Fan learned that Zhou Wei had resigned from her position as a teacher in the medical school and was concentrating on running the jade shop left by Liu Haitao. In order to celebrate the opening of the new store, Ling Fan attended with Tianyu and Chen Yuzhen, and received a small beautiful piece of green jade from Zhou Wei.
Of course, the matter is far from ending like this, because since that incident, there has been an additional legend of the rat-eater in the courtyard of Qingshan City Hospital, it is said that every night, there will be a black shadow walking back and forth in the pharmacology laboratory of the teaching building, and even sometimes hear a terrible squeaky scream in the laboratory, and some people have even seen the black shadow with their own eyes, it is actually a monster with a rat head and a body rotting!
