Peerless Little Immortal Doctor

"Old Zhong, hurry up and tell me what the big case is. If it's too dangerous, have Qianqian come back."

Hearing Li Zhong mention the biggest case in decades, Xu Fang grew fearful.

Her daughter was only in her twenties, without even a boyfriend. What could she do if something unexpected happened?

Xia Liu also frowned deeply; he had been away from Hejing these past days.

Naturally, he wouldn't be aware of it. It seemed the recent events were no trivial matter.

"I don't know the specifics, but three people have already died, all of them quite wealthy from the county."

Talking about this matter, Li Zhong also felt scared afterwards.

"No way! I'm going to call Qianqian back! Three people are dead; how can she handle it?" Xu Fang panicked upon hearing this.

This sort of case, the criminals are definitely heartless demons who don't blink an eye when killing.

After all, her daughter was just a woman; how could she handle such a case?

"Her phone is turned off! I'm going to make a trip there!"

"Enough, I talked to Qianqian today, and she said she would see it through till the end!" Li Zhong hurriedly stopped Xu Fang.

Even if she went, it wouldn't make any difference. Didn't he know his daughter's character?

Stubbornly persistent, she would keep investigating until the case was truly closed.

"Director Chen, Aunt Xu, you don't need to worry. I happen to be free these days. I will go over and check on Qianqian."

"Really?" Xu Fang grabbed Xia Liu's hand excitedly.

If Xia Liu could help, not to mention solving the case, at least he would stay by her daughter's side.

Given time, there was bound to be an ambiguous relationship developing between him and her daughter.

"Really, Aunt Xu, don't worry. I'll head over right away," Xia Liu said with a reassuring smile.

This might be an opportunity. If he helped Li Qianqian close the case, how could she not tell him about Fang Fei's situation?

"Brother Liu, you shouldn't force yourself," Li Zhong worried for Xia Liu.

He was now the pillar of Osmanthus Village. If something happened to him, it would be a disaster for the whole village.

"Rest assured, Director Chen, I'm reliable in my work."

Half an hour later, Xia Liu left the county office.

Li Qianqian hadn't returned home in two days, indicating the urgency of the case. He needed to get there quickly.

Otherwise, if she resolved it, he would lose his chance to ask her about Fang Fei.

The location — County Police Station.

Although it was nine in the evening, the massive office building was still brightly lit.

Many staff members moved back and forth holding folders; their bustling activity made Xia Liu sigh.

At the same time, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Given the busy scene, the case was definitely not over yet.

Because Chen Jin had previously instructed all subordinates about Xia Liu's matters.

And so, as soon as Xia Liu entered the building, the staff members he encountered greeted him.

Xia Liu confidently made his way to Chen Jin's office, wanting to find out the latest progress on the case.

Seeking out Chen Jin was definitely the right move.

Knock, knock, knock.

"Come in."

An impatient voice came from inside the door.

"Director Chen, you haven't gone to bed yet so late at night?" asked Xia Liu, feigning ignorance.

"Oh, it's Brother Liu. Ay, with everything going on these last two days, when would I have time to rest?" Chen Jin said with a weary face after recognizing it was Xia Liu.

"Er, er, er, I heard a bit about the situation from Director Li, and I feel like I could help out a bit. What do you say, Director Chen?" Xia Liu asked directly.

Hmm?

Chen Jin looked at Xia Liu with puzzlement, unable to fathom how this guy could be so confident.

If it were any other time, he definitely wouldn't have let Xia Liu get involved.

But just now, as Xia Liu had also mentioned, he'd heard about the case from Li Zhong.

How could anyone refuse him under these circumstances...

"If Brother Liu doesn't mind, of course, there's no problem on my end."

Xia Liu gave a slight smile before inquiring about the latest news on the case from Chen Jin.

Twenty minutes later, Xia Liu finally understood the situation.

The reason this case had become a major one in recent years was due to three deaths.

Moreover, these were the three wealthiest individuals in the county; Hejing's territory wasn't very large, but it still had many rich people.

Especially those ranked at the top, whose wealth was measured in billions.

As for the nature of the case, Chen Jin had said it was kidnapping!

Kidnapping tycoons, something that happened every day.

But unlike ordinary kidnapping cases, in these three incidents, after the criminals got the money, they shockingly killed their hostages!

In the world of kidnapping, this was considered unethical behavior.

In everyone's eyes, kidnappers were not human; they were beasts, devils.

"Are the bodies of those three deceased still around?" Xia Liu thought for a moment, deciding to look for clues starting from the bodies.

"Since the case hasn't been closed yet, the corpses are all preserved in the morgue at the County Hospital."

"Good, I'll go take a look at those bodies first." After pausing, Xia Liu continued, "By the way, what is Qianqian busy with?"

"Uh uh... you mean Officer Li, right? If she's not in a meeting in the conference room, she's probably at the hospital," Chen Jin responded, momentarily taken aback.

"Got it, I'll go to the hospital first," Xia Liu nodded, then immediately headed for the hospital. Experience tales at empire

Following Li Qianqian's style of conduct, if she wasn't discussing the case with colleagues in a meeting, she'd likely be at the hospital looking for clues on the bodies.

The County Hospital, as usual, wasn't very busy at night, with hardly any activity other than in the emergency room.

The morgue was located in the most secluded corner of the hospital.

Escorted by a security guard, Xia Liu arrived at the entrance to the morgue.

The guard certainly didn't dare to go in late at night.

Xia Liu didn't comment on this; it was only human nature, after all.

Walking down the chilly corridor, Xia Liu felt no discomfort.

Following the security guard's directions, he arrived outside a room.

He didn't immediately open the door, because inside stood two people—yes, it was Li Qianqian.

Beside Li Qianqian was another policeman wearing glasses.

Through the glass in the door, Xia Liu could tell that Li Qianqian was highly focused on the case.

At that moment, she was inspecting one of the corpses, her expression extremely grim.

Xia Liu felt a sudden playful urge; he knocked on the door a few times, then ran and hid in the next room.

The bespectacled policeman went to open the door, but when he saw that there was no one there, his face instantly turned pale.

"Captain Li, there's no one outside..."

"Someone's playing a prank. Just keep watching there; I'll be done with the recording soon," Li Qianqian said without turning back.

The man behind the glasses choked up, not continuing his words.

Suddenly, his pupils shrank dramatically, and goosebumps covered his entire body.

He saw something—a series of residual images flickering inside the corridor, and the doors to all the rooms where bodies were stored flew open!

"Ahh!!!" The man with glasses screamed frantically, running for his life outside.

Li Qianqian was startled; she immediately ran out to check, but saw nothing.

However, when she turned back into the room, her face instantly went pale; someone was standing in front of the corpse...
