Retired for A Hundred Years: Re-Employment for the Apocalypse Bigshot! Chapter 230: Li Meifang Jumped Off the Building

Ji Ning smiled without saying anything.

Where there are people, there is struggle; to remain untouched, one must have strength that makes others look up to them.

Otherwise, one would rely be a pawn on the chessboard, unable to last through many gas.

The drama that Hu Bo had her watch tonight was indeed quite captivating.

But no one is a fool; Ji Ning believed it wouldn’t be long before Shen Hongqing also invited her to watch a show.

"Sister Ning, where are we going?" Lin Yuanyang glanced at the ti, it was already 8:30 PM.

Ji Ning thought for a mont and replied, "To the hospital, to see if Li ifang has given birth?"

"She already has, a pair of twins, a boy and a girl, both safe and sound."

Lin Yuanyang looked down at the information on his Smart Brain and said with a complicated expression.

Ji Ning glanced at the Smart Brain on his wrist, uttering a simple "Hmm."

The two of them re-entered through the back door of the Security Bureau, got into the car specifically assigned to Ji Ning, and headed towards the hospital.

In the hospital room, Li ifang felt both joyful and anxious.

She was truly afraid that Ji Ning would suddenly appear and take her away.

Damn it—

Why was Aunt Pan’s identity that of a spy?

Why did she have to harm like this?

At that mont, Li ifang truly hated Aunt Pan to death, wishing she could turn back ti so she never t this person.

"Wah—Wah—"

The loud cries of the two children brought Li ifang’s thoughts back.

She imdiately looked at the two nannies hired for the job inside the room, her face displeased as she said, "Aren’t you going to prepare the milk? Can’t you see the babies are hungry?"

The nannies were sowhat afraid of her, not daring to speak, hurriedly putting down the babies to prepare the milk.

The young nurse nearby, out of professional duty, forced herself to say, "Dear mother, we are now advocating for breastfeeding the babies."

Li ifang rolled her eyes in exasperation, but the pain in her belly stopped her from losing her temper, leading her to take deep breaths.

This childbirth was truly dangerous for her; she was rushed into the operating room for a C-section upon arrival at the hospital.

Fortunately, she had supplented her nutrition regularly, so although the babies were premature, they were relatively healthy.

They were just slightly smaller than average newborns.

Two tiny bundles resembling little kittens.

The nannies swiftly inserted the bottles into the babies’ mouths, successfully stopping their cries.

Li ifang felt a bit of the annoyance in her heart dissipate.

She opened her eyes to look at the two children and asked, "Has the Family Head seen the children?"

The two nannies exchanged a glance but said nothing.

Seeing this, Li ifang raised her voice, "The Family Head hasn’t co?"

One of the nannies slightly shook her head.

Li ifang’s anger made the pain in her belly contract again, her face contorting into a frightening grimace.

The two nannies dared not look at her, holding the children, retreating further from the bed.

At this mont, a nurse’s voice ca from outside: "The babies need to be taken for an examination."

The two nannies breathed a sigh of relief, hurriedly carrying the babies out.

Suddenly, Li ifang was left alone in the room.

A sense of loneliness arose from within, engulfing her entirely, causing her body to tremble, and tears to flow uncontrollably down her face.

It was unclear how much ti had passed when suddenly a stranger’s voice appeared in her ear.

...

***

"Master, Mr. Lin’s phone call is coming through, should I answer it?"

Lin Yuanyang, looking at the Smart Brain on his wrist, really didn’t want to take the call, but still pressed the answer button with so patience.

A vexed voice ca through: "What have you done? Why did Li ifang jump off the building and commit suicide?"

"What?" Lin Yuanyang almost stood up in shock, looking at Ji Ning with wide eyes full of astonishnt.

Driving, Ji Ning furrowed her brows and stepped hard on the gas pedal, causing the car’s speed to surge instantly.

When they arrived, the hospital’s inpatient building had already been cordoned off by the police.

Fortunately, it was late, so the hospital had few patients, preventing a bigger commotion.

Ji Ning presented her credentials, leading Lin Yuanyang into the restricted area.

Li ifang’s body was covered with a white sheet, surrounded by bloodstains.

Ji Ning’s spiritual power scanned the scene, finding nothing unusual.

She then looked up at the floors.

The windows in the inpatient departnt were vertical, and the angles wouldn’t allow an adult to squeeze through.

If Li ifang wanted to jump off, she wouldn’t have been able to go out the window but from the rooftop. But how could a new mother who just had a C-section get out of bed and, avoiding all dical staff, go to the rooftop alone to jump?

Ji Ning closed her eyes, letting her spiritual power envelop the entire building, not missing a single detail inside.

Lin Yuanyang once again looked at Ji Ning with shock.

He felt a terrifying energy surrounding Ji Ning, making people very uneasy.

The officer in charge of the case happened to be nearby and, upon hearing there was soone from the Security Bureau, quickly approached, "Are you the ones from the...?"

Lin Yuanyang gestured for him to be quiet, and the officer paused in surprise. Ji Ning opened her eyes, her pitch-black gaze like sharp blades, making one shiver with fear.

"From this mont, the case is taken over by the Security Bureau. I will report the specific reasons," Ji Ning’s voice was icy as she stepped towards the inpatient building.

The officer frowned, contemplating a certain possibility, his expression turned serious as he called his superior.

In the lobby of the inpatient building, apart from the police, there were no dical staff or patients—it seed the area had been cleared.

Ji Ning led Lin Yuanyang quickly to the elevator, intending to visit Li ifang’s ward.

While waiting for the elevator, the officer caught up with them, his face stern: "Until higher orders are issued, you cannot take over the case."

Ji Ning glanced at him without speaking, and the officer continued, "I am He Xin, the team leader of the criminal investigation unit at the local police station. May I ask which level detective you are?"

"Ji Ning, A-level detective." Ji Ning showed her credentials again.

He Xin’s eyes revealed a hint of surprise at the na, then he looked at Lin Yuanyang, "And him?"

"Lin Yuanyang, my assistant. The deceased is his stepmother."

He Xin scrutinized Lin Yuanyang with a piercing gaze, seemingly evaluating whether Lin Yuanyang could have killed Li ifang.

"At the ti of the incident, he was with having dinner near the Security Bureau, with an alibi," Ji Ning looked at him and said.

But He Xin’s suspicious look did not diminish, he continued to ask: "As far as I know, Li ifang’s due date was not today. She was brought in by an ambulance. What caused her to suddenly go into labor and be brought to the hospital? Does this have a direct connection to Lin Yuanyang?"

Ji Ning turned to look at him, his square face, righteous brows, and sharp eyes, lightly said, "Instead of doubting the impact of a 12-year-old child on his stepmother, you should look into how Li ifang ended up jumping. The windows in the ward, when opened, cannot fit an adult through. How did she, a woman who just had a C-section, end up jumping?"

He Xin was left speechless, staring deeply at Ji Ning, bluntly saying, "Are you suggesting that Li ifang’s death might be murder?"

Ji Ning did not answer.

At this mont, the elevator reached the first floor.

Ji Ning and Lin Yuanyang were the first to step into the elevator.

He Xin quickly followed.

He had a persistent feeling that Ji Ning certainly knew sothing he wasn’t aware of.

He continued to press, "Whether it was suicide or murder, there must be a reason. Do you know sothing about Li ifang?"
