Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Xie Xuning stood outside the door with an impressive presence. His masculine appearance and grave expression made him look nothing like a bad person.
“Who are you? Did you co to the wrong place at this hour of the night?”
Xie Xuning stood behind the door and spoke in a low voice, “Are you Jiao Hongi? I’ve co from the Imperial Capital to visit you. I have sothing to ask about Friendship Hospital.”
Jiao Hongi was stunned for a mont. “Friendship Hospital?”
That was one of her previous workplaces.
The problem was… that hospital was demolished and rebuilt a long ti ago because of its geographical location.
“Which part of Imperial Capital did you co from? May I see your work permit?”
Since it was at the wee hours of the night, Jiao Hongi was far more aware of her surroundings and safety.
Jiao Hongi cracked the door open, and Xie Xuning passed one of his guard’s work permit to her.
Once Jiao Hongi saw the contents written on the work permit, her suspicions disappeared.
She turned on the lights in the hallway and unlocked the anti-theft door.
“Hi, I’m sorry about the ss in my house. The hourly maid’s only coming to clean up tomorrow.”
Jiao Hongi’s house was in a ss. The sofa was cluttered with her clothes, and her shoes were scattered in the hallway near the door.
Currently, Jiao Hongi was wearing a silk nightgown with several plastic hair curlers in her hair.
Jiao Hongi hastily cleared out an area for Xie Xuning to sit once he was inside the house.
“Do you recall seeing this missing person’s notice?”
Xie Xuning went straight to the point. He wanted to get the information from Jiao Hongi as quickly as possible.
Jiao Hongi reached out and took the missing people’s notice from Xie Xuning. Her fingernails were painted in red.
She looked at the date written on the missing people’s notice attentively. It was indeed published during the period when she was still working in that hospital.
“I’ll need so ti to think about it.”
Since it was sothing that happened quite long ago, Jiao Hongi could not rember it right away.
Jiao Hongi walked to the coffee table, bent down, and reached for the cigarette box. She took out a thin cigarette and put it between her lips.
Poof!
Flas flickering, the lighter was ignited.
Jiao Hongi lit her cigarette and inhaled deeply.
The sll of cigarettes made Xie Xuning frown inconspicuously.
Jiao Hongi unconsciously took another deep puff at her cigarette.
“At that ti, I rember I worked in the ergency room. Many people were sent to the ergency room every day because of car accidents. I didn’t pay special attention, so I can’t say if there was a lady with a heart-shaped birthmark on her wrist.”
A long ti passed.
According to the missing person notice published in the newspaper, it was certain that Jiao Hongi was not aware of what happened back then. Why was that?
“I was too engaged in my relationship back then, so I did not communicate much with my colleagues.”
Jiao Hongi was heavily addicted to smoking that she finished her cigarette in less than five minutes.
She lit another cigarette again.
“The missing person notice was published for a month. Do you not have any mory of it?”
Jiao Hongi looked at the missing people’s notice again and shook her head.
“I genuinely cannot recall anything. If sothing did happen, there’s no way I wouldn’t know about it. News spreads fast in the hospital; everyone would’ve quickly known if sothing happened.”
The veins in Xie Xuning’s temple were pounding.
Was his trip to find out about Linlang’s whereabouts going to be in vain again?
“Can you try thinking about it again? Did anything unusual happened in the hospital back then?”
Jiao Hongi asked herself, “Anything unusual?”
