Capítulo 1370: Chapter 1354: Deep Fear (2)
“No, no, my husband’s stomach hurts terribly.” Xiao Liu’s wife said urgently.
“Really stomach pain?” Lin Jinyu looked at Xiao Liu’s wife suspiciously.
“Really, really, please go check on him.”
“Alright, alright!” Lin Jinyu hurriedly walked into the ward and saw Xiao Liu curling up on the bed, clutching his stomach like a shrimp.
This startled Lin Jinyu; stomach pain to this extent is not a simple matter. He quickly ca to examine him, but before he could start, Xiao Liu’s pain subsided.
“It’s…it’s nothing.” Xiao Liu said weakly and wiped the sweat off his forehead, his face indescribably pale.
“Nothing? You an the pain is gone?” Lin Jinyu looked at Xiao Liu in confusion.
“It just hurt…for five minutes, and now it doesn’t.” Xiao Liu said softly.
Lin Jinyu said, “That’s strange. By the way, I rember you had a stomach checkup earlier; I’ll go see the report first.”
“Thank you.” Xiao Liu’s wife escorted Lin Jinyu out, closed the door, and turned around to exchange a glance with her husband, both seeing a deep fear in each other’s eyes.
Chapter 1355
After a short while, Lin Jinyu returned to the ward, frowned at the couple, and said, “I think you guys are overdoing it. You want to create a dical record, I’ll help you, but why cause all this unnecessary fuss.”
Xiao Liu’s wife quickly said, “No, no, my husband really hurt a lot earlier, and not just once; it hurt once two hours ago too.”
Lin Jinyu said indignantly, “You guys are really good at pretending. What pain was there? There’s absolutely no issue. If it hurt that much, I can guarantee it’s sothing like perforation, and such pain can’t possibly occur at intervals. Enough is enough; don’t overdo it. This kind of thing can be easily checked, and I won’t randomly create a dical record for you.”
After saying this, Lin Jinyu flicked his sleeve and walked out, leaving Xiao Liu and his wife staring at each other.
If they had found any problem through examination, the couple could have relaxed a bit. But now that nothing was detected, they are even more uneasy, and firmly believe that this issue was caused by Song Xiaodong.
“Honey… what do we do?” Xiao Liu’s wife asked haltingly.
Xiao Liu clenched his fist and said, “Don’t be afraid. Even if he caused this, I don’t believe he can keep
in pain indefinitely. Perhaps just a few tis and it’ll be over; maybe it’s just those two tis. Let’s not scare ourselves first.”
“But… such a person is really scary. If he does sothing to you, we’ll never be able to escape him in our lifeti, maybe we should…”
Xiao Liu imdiately shook his head vigorously and said, “No, no, this is a great opportunity for . The more hardship I endure, the better my future developnt will be. Endure the greatest hardships to beco a superior person. Honey, don’t be afraid, ah! No, wait!”
Xiao Liu suddenly exclaid, startling his wife, then he quickly said, “Give
my phone. I need to call Deputy Chief Chen and let him know that I’m sick here, or else my suffering would be in vain?”
“But…”
“No buts, hopefully my stomach will hurt in a while, otherwise it won’t be effective.”
“You… you’re willing to endure this pain?”
“Willing, of course willing, the more it hurts the better.” Xiao Liu’s face showed an unexpectedly excited expression, and it seed almost fanatical.
Xiao Liu’s wife’s mouth twitched twice, but eventually handed the phone to Xiao Liu.
After Song Xiaodong and the others returned to the village, they were warmly welcod by the villagers, who all wanted to invite them as guests.
The three of them wandered casually among several families, each of which had children, so they took the opportunity to chat with the kids.
After a while, Song Xiaodong and his group returned to the village committee, and Principal Zhao followed them.
“Principal Zhao, co in and have a seat.” Shen Yue enthusiastically invited Principal Zhao.
Once inside, Principal Zhao closed the door directly, looked at Shen Yue, then Song Xiaodong, and suddenly sighed.
Shen Yue imdiately asked, “Principal Zhao, is there sothing you want to tell us?”
Principal Zhao hesitated again, then gritted his teeth and said, “You went to check the accounts today, but couldn’t find anything, right?”
“Yes, Principal Zhao actually has such foresight.” Song Xiaodong said with a smile.
Principal Zhao shook his head again and said, “You aren’t familiar with the people here since you are outsiders, but I know these people very well. That Deputy Chief Chen Zhengmin, though he has the na Zhengmin, does nothing gentlemanly. Every year, our schools have so funding, but most of the money gets held up by him, embezzled, with very little reaching our school.”
Shen Yue quickly poured Principal Zhao a glass of water and said, “Take your ti to speak.”
Principal Zhao took a big sip of water before continuing, “That Zhao Qiang, while being the village chief, is really a local tyrant, having committed countless wrongdoings. He beca village chief because the locals don’t dare provoke him; he is thoroughly Deputy Chen’s lackey.”
“I was initially happy to see the school being remodeled this year. But yesterday, I learned that you donated a million, yet less than ten thousand might have been spent here; these people are truly sinister.”
As Principal Zhao spoke these words, he gritted his teeth, showing his deep hatred for these two individuals.
Song Xiaodong looked into Principal Zhao’s eyes and asked, “Principal Zhao, it seems you are not here just to say these things, right?”
Principal Zhao’s facial muscles twitched slightly, and he said, “I ca to warn you: don’t rush to check the accounts or anything. It’s best to act as if you don’t know anything and leave.”
Shen Yue furrowed her brows and said, “Why? Principal Zhao isn’t here to plead on their behalf, is he?”
“Of course not; I also wish I could deal with them. But they’re the local tyrants here. If you provoke them, who knows what ans they’ll use to deal with you. My suggestion is to retreat to advance, to avoid direct confrontation until you truly catch them or have the power to deal with their backing. Wait until then to investigate; now I’m afraid…for your lives.”
“For our lives?” Shen Yue imdiately opened her eyes wide and said, “Do they dare to commit murder?”
Principal Zhao sighed and said, “We are in a remote area, and Zhao Qiang has always been a ruthless guy. If you corner them with this matter, he might indeed do sothing. There’s so much wilderness here full of wolves and bears. At worst…to put it bluntly, even the bodies would be hard to find.”
Song Xiaodong squinted and asked, “Does Principal Zhao have evidence against them?”
“I don’t have any evidence… If I did, I’d have reported them earlier. But this kind of thing definitely happens; a dicine trader visited a few days ago, disagreed with Zhao Qiang, and ended up missing. The Public Security Bureau ca several tis and treated it as a missing person case. His family has been searching for him repeatedly, but without any luck, sigh.”
Upon hearing this, Shen Yue was infuriated. Knowing these people embezzled money was already enough to anger her, but learning they acted so excessively surpassed her imagination.
