Book:Sudden Wealth Published:2024-5-1

The old woman entered the ward, once the door was closed, her gaze was cast to Cheng Mang on the hospital bed, originally honest and pure pair of eyes, now revealing a sly gaze.
She drew a disposable syringe from her sleeve, which had been filled with a clear, slightly yellowish liquid.
This is a top drug from the Middle East, with a toxin extracted from the venom of a golden-ringed snake caught in the local desert.
At present, the world-wide understanding of this toxin can be described as “half-understood”, and more amazingly, this quality of poisoning, in the first 3 days, the poisoned person’s body can not detect its composition, only after 3 days, the various signs of poisoning will appear one by one.
The old woman took this syringe and walked to Cheng Mang’s hospital bed.
On the hospital bed, Cheng Mang is still asleep, his right hand in a sling, his left hand was handcuffed and bed frame handcuffed together.
The old woman slowly bent down, removed the plastic cap from the syringe needle, and put the thin hollow needle, aimed at the green sperm on the back of Cheng Mang’s hand, and slowly stuck it in.
The pain coming from the back of his hand, Cheng Mang’s eyes moved slightly, he gradually opened his eyes, the image of an old woman gradually clear in his vision, and the old woman has pushed the venom from the syringe, into Cheng Mang’s bloodstream.
“It’s you …,” Cheng Mang recognized the old woman.
She is also one of Song Yi’s men, before, Cheng Mang once met, this old woman once helped Song Yi in a casino to deal with a man, when, after the man was drunk by the lady, the old woman entered as a housekeeper, using a cloth to cover the man’s nose, let it suffocate to death.
Just as he made a sound, the old woman quickly covered his mouth.
“That’s right, it’s me, Granny White, and I think by now you’ve figured out who told me to come kill you! Hey, you said you are also when Song Shao’s minions, how can you bite Song Shao back, see, you dare to bite the master, is the consequence of death”
Seeing that the muscles on Cheng Mang’s face began to twitch, his gaze began to become lost in thought, and his breathing began to become weak, Auntie Bai knew that this was the beginning of the onset of the toxin, and she slowly let go of Cheng Mang.
Lying on the bed, Cheng Mang’s whole body has no little strength, he felt suffocated, he wanted to breathe into more air, but he suddenly found that he could not even breathe this most instinctive reaction, can not do.
Gradually, his consciousness also began to become faint. It was as if he saw a heaven emanating golden light, and his soul became light and floated slowly.
Cheng Mang’s pupils did not move and turned into dead fish-like eyes, his life was completely lost.
White granny looked at her masterpiece on the hospital bed and smiled softly, however she started cleaning in the ward as if nothing had happened, and after cleaning, White granny slowly walked out of the ward.
“Grandma, the cleaning is done!” The two policemen asked with slightly open eyes.
“Ahem, I’m done cleaning, I’ll leave now, thank you comrade police,” said the white woman with a smile to the two police officers, finished, slowly pushed the cleaning cart and disappeared in the building.
An hour later, a nurse lady entered Cheng Mang’s ward to check.
“Ah!” She had just entered, and then a tragic scream came out. Hearing the scream, two police officers rushed in.
They saw that the ward on the Cheng Mang has no longer a little bit of life.
The two police officers were suddenly cold in the heart.
“Get your doctor here immediately to see what’s going on with him!” A police officer said.
“Yes, I’ll go get Dr. Guo now!” The nurse lady finished speaking and quickly ran out, and soon, Cheng Mang’s attending doctor entered the ward.
While the attending doctor examined Cheng Mang, a police officer dialed Wang Chen’s phone number.
“Wang team, Cheng Meng he … he is dead!” The police officer said guiltily.
“Dead!”
Wang Chen was riding the tram to the police station, hearing this explosive news, she nearly hit the road teeth: “How can it be dead? Yesterday you said that Cheng Meng’s condition is very good, in a few days you can take a statement!”
“Yes, yesterday the doctor said so, but I do not know why, this morning Cheng Mang suddenly died ah …” police officers to now also confused, Cheng Mang why suddenly will die.
At this point, the doctor finished a cursory examination and came over, and the police immediately asked him what the cause of death of Cheng Mang was.
“Mr. Cheng all physical symptoms are normal, it can be determined that his death is not directly related to gunshot wounds, it may be that he himself had certain diseases that happened to strike this morning, there is only this speculation, can not find other causes, but the possibility of this speculation is also very low, I can not think of, which disease attack can be so rapid and not even a little sound to …” said the attending doctor, shaking his head.
“No way, it can’t be such a coincidence …”
From the phone, Wang Chen heard the doctor’s words, but she didn’t believe it. She had a vague feeling that Cheng Mang’s death might be related to Song Yi, and she asked, “Did anyone enter Cheng Mang’s ward?”
“No… no, there was one, but it was the grandmother who cleaned the hospital,” the policeman said.
“Wait a minute, comrade police officer, you said the one who cleaned the house was “Grandma”?” The attending doctor asked.
“Yeah, her body is hunched over, her face is full of wrinkles, look at how old she is more than 60 years old, what is it if not a grandmother?” The police officer said.
“Not ah! Our hospital cleaning is a young girl in her 20s, she is a relative of one of our hospital workers, because of a little brain problem, did not go to school, so the hospital leadership agreed to arrange for her to clean the hospital!” The nurse lady said.
“Shit!”
The two police officers then understood that it is likely that the granny came in and did something to Cheng Meng, they hastily apologized to Wang Chen: “Wang team, I’m sorry, we were negligent”
“What’s the point of talking about it now!”
Wang Chen scolded, she was now in a particularly bad mood, arranged: “You two immediately retrieve the hospital’s surveillance, find that old lady! Also, make sure to protect Cheng Mang’s body, I’ll be there soon!”
“Yes!” The two policemen answered at the same time.
After hanging up the phone, Wang Chen rode the tram and drove quickly to the police station, her mind kept circling an idea that Cheng Mang was most likely killed by Song Yi’s men.
Back at the police station, Wang Chen immediately greeted two police officers, ready to drive a police car with her to the third hospital of Yanjing Medical University to check the cause of death of Cheng Mang.
“Wang team, we received a report that an armed robbery of a bad nature occurred in Yishun County, and the culprit has been captured by colleagues from Yishun Branch, and we learned through the connected network system that
This suspect previously in our jurisdiction, do 3 cases, the amount reached more than 3 million, those three cases are your responsibility, Yishun Branch asked our Bureau to send people to go with their joint interrogation, Fan Bureau has ordered you to immediately go to Yishun Branch to cooperate with the investigation”
A police officer walked up to Wang Chen and said.
Wang Chen felt that something was wrong with this matter, through a short period of time to think, Wang Chen still changed the idea of going to the hospital, with 2 officers, drove the police car to the Yishun Branch.
Seeing the shadow of Wang Chen driving away in his car, Fan Feng, who was sitting in his office, showed a smile as he dialed a phone …
Originally thought that as long as 2, 3 hours, you can end the interrogation, did not expect, because the prisoner’s refusal to cooperate, until 7 p. m., the sky is dark, the case is only a little progress.
Wang Chen’s heart has been hanging on, Cheng Mang’s death, she said goodbye to colleagues and leaders of the Yishun Branch for the time being, and two colleagues, driving a police car, to the third hospital of the Medical University.
Quickly passing through a circle of Yanjing ring road, a beam of yellow light shining on Wang Chen’s face, her heroic face rippled, her gaze in addition to looking at the road, is thinking about the death of Cheng Mang.
Wang Chen does not believe that Cheng Mang’s death will be a coincidence, an accident, there must be someone to do the sublime, and the ghost of the person, in her opinion, there is only one, is Song Yi!
The third hospital arrived, Wang Chen “snap” closed the car door, and ran towards the hospital.
She ran to Cheng Mang’s hospital room, Cheng Mang’s bed was empty, and there was not a single crease in the white clean sheets.
“May I ask where this patient has gone?” Wang Chen walked outside the ward, pulled a passing nurse lady and asked anxiously.
The nurse lady who was walking while doing the room check records was startled by Wang Chen’s sudden questioning and said, “This patient has passed away this morning and has been transferred to the morgue on the negative floor…”
“Good, thank you” Wang Chen sighed with relief, she thought she was too nervous, people died, must be transferred to the morgue, how can still be in the ward?
“Let’s go over there now,” Wang Chen said to his two subordinates.
Wang Chen they soon came to the third hospital basement level, here is the location of the morgue, very cool, feel the gloomy wind from time to time.
“Hello, we are police officers from the Chaowai Branch, we would like to confirm, is Cheng Mang’s body here? Later I will notify the forensic doctor to come and examine Cheng Mang’s corpse!” Wang Chen said as he approached a withered old man at the entrance of the morgue.
“Cheng Mang, that’s the murderer, right?”
The old man looked up to Wang Chen and said, “He was sent to the morgue at about 8:00 this morning, but at about 1:30 this afternoon, he was led away by his friend”
“What!”
Wang Chen and the two police officers were taken aback: “How could he be led away? The police did not explain you, he was involved in an extremely bad nature of the murder, he is the key to solving the case, you just let the person go so easily”
“It’s not my business, they brought a certificate from the hospital, I’m just a morgue watcher, you don’t hold me responsible …”
The old man was said by Wang Chen, and hastily held his head, looking very scared.
Wang Chen realized his impulsiveness and apologized to the old man, then stepped aside and called to the two police officers who were previously watching Cheng Mang at the hospital and asked them to come to the morgue to see her immediately.
It didn’t take long for the two police officers to come over.
“Team Wang …”
“Cheng Mang’s body was picked up, how did you guys do your job? Didn’t I specifically explain that no one is allowed to touch Cheng Mang’s body?”
Wang Chen accused, for subordinate mistakes, she was particularly annoyed, Cheng Mang died for the police is already very unfavorable, and now even the body was taken away, which means that all the evidence about the crime of Song Yi, it is gone.
“Ah, it’s been picked up!”
Two police officers also looked surprised look, they looked at Wang Chen hurriedly explained:
“Wang team, the two of us watched Cheng Mang’s body was sent to the morgue, the hospital’s surveillance room to see the video, but also contacted the comrades of the Traffic Bureau, looking for the old lady posing as a cleaner, we thought Cheng Mang’s body in the morgue is foolproof, did not expect … did not expect to be picked up …”
