“The feelings I have for him are strictly platonic.”
Huo Mian’s answer was short and honest.
“I see, it must be really great to be Vice Director Huo’s friend,” Lin Mingyu sighed loudly.
“You are my friend too.” Huo Mian felt awkward.
“No, I am not, otherwise, you wouldn’t have used me last time without even asking.” He sounded a bit petty.
Huo Mian felt bad. “I’m sorry, Doctor Lin. I had no other choice, I…”
“You don’t have to explain. I understand. I didn’t mean to blame you… It’s admirable that you didn’t abandon your husband at a distressing time and put your safety aside to protect your husband…”
Huo Mian bit her lip and stayed silent. She didn’t know what to say.
“Let’s go, I am going to write up a request. Once I get approval, I will evaluate Liu Ze’s wounds.”
“Doctor Lin, Liu Ze…” Huo Mian wanted to say something.
“I know, I won’t give him time to play his little tricks. I’ll bring my people there right away and catch him off guard. Then, the test results will be authentic.”
“Yeah, that’s good… Thank you…” Huo Mian nodded.
“Mhm, don’t worry, I’ll get the results as soon as possible. You need to know that even if I find evidence, it might not clear his name… After all, there were so many eyewitnesses. So, don’t put all your hope on this, it might only help a little.”
“I understand, I’ll try to find other proof. Anyways, thank you, Doctor Lin.”
“No, it’s my duty.”
Afterward, Huo Mian and Lin Mingyu left the office and Huo Mian went to Jiang Xiaowei.
The two ordered a few plates in a restaurant downstairs and talked while eating.
“I didn’t think that Lin Mingyu would agree so easily… d.a.m.n, I’m impressed,” Jiang Xiaowei exclaimed.
“Actually, I’ve asked someone to investigate Lin Mingyu. Gao Ran said that he has a decent reputation. Even though he’s pretty strict and stands his ground on issues, but he is a just man. A lot of people have tried to bribe him to change the results to no avail.”
“Lin Mingyu’s living condition is fine, he doesn’t need that money.”
“It doesn’t concern the money, it concerns his quality as a person. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have made it this far…”
“But I’m pretty surprised that he agreed to it. Mian, you have to know that it’s the hospital’s job to a.s.sess the wounds on live victims. This isn’t within Lin Mingyu’s job requirements. He’s a forensic doctor, he a.s.sesses corpses.”
“I know.”
“So, why didn’t you ask the First Hospital or South Side to evaluate the wounds? Why the trouble?” Jiang Xiaowei didn’t understand this move Huo Mian was making.
“The hospitals won’t be able to find anything. Liu Ze is a doctor, he’s smart. Only a forensics doctor can examine such details. He’s also the forensics doctor at the City Bureau, he is more reputable.”
“d.a.m.n, that’s smart. You think of everything.” Jiang Xiaowei gave her a thumbs up.
At that time, her phone rang…
She picked up the phone and it was from Tang Chuan.
“Sis-in-Law, I found some leads relating to Yu’s case. Where are you right now? I’ll get it to you right away!” he sounded a little excited.
