Rebirth 2014: I, the King of Criminal Investigation

Chapter 418 Everyone is waiting for you to be discharged from the hospital

Qu Tuotuo realized that her whole body was moving upwards, and the arm around her waist was slowly tightening. She immediately sensed something was wrong and jumped off the bed.

"Even in this state, you're still thinking about all sorts of nonsense."

She was a little angry.

If I had discovered it any later, this guy would have dragged me into bed.

"That's really strange." Yu Dazhang looked aggrieved.
“I didn’t mean for this to happen. My hand moved on its own. I suspect there’s something wrong with the blood I was given.”

He didn't even believe his own nonsense, but Qu Tuotuo took it seriously.

“I also feel something’s not right,” she said earnestly.
"You've been unconscious for too long. It could very well be a blood issue. Why don't we transfer you to another hospital and have a specialist take a look?"

She looks so cute... Yu Dazhang couldn't help but reach out to her again when he saw how nervous she was.

Qu Tuotuo skillfully dodged.

"Transfer to another hospital right now!"

Yu Dazhang naturally disagreed with the transfer to another hospital.

He was injured on duty this time.

He was admitted to a special care ward, with all expenses covered by the provincial health department, and he was even on paid leave to recover.

With these conditions, why bother transferring to another hospital?

What if I switch to another hospital and the provincial health department stops taking care of me?

Therefore, he felt at ease staying at the Fourth Hospital.

This stay lasted another three days.

During this time, members of the special task force came to visit him one by one, and a senior leader from the provincial department also came to express his condolences and urged him to make sure he fully recovered before being discharged from the hospital.

It is worth mentioning that Li Jun also came from Songhai.

The day after Yu Dazhang regained consciousness, the provincial department informed Songhai of his injury.

Upon learning of this, Director Liu immediately ordered Li Jun to go to Baling to investigate the situation. If Yu Dazhang's injuries were serious, he was to be brought back to Songhai for treatment immediately.

But when Li Jun arrived at Baling Fourth Hospital, he was stunned by what he saw.

Yu Dazhang was leaning against the headboard, shirtless and with his belly exposed, holding a banana in his left hand and an apple in his right, eating with relish.

Qu Tuotuo sat on the edge of the bed, peeling oranges for him.

Although his head and shoulders were heavily bandaged, his complexion was still rosy, and he showed no signs of weakness.

Is this an injury?

Li Jun gritted his teeth.

Indulging in lavish food and drinks, accompanied by beautiful women—this is clearly a vacation!
"The treatment is not bad," Li Jun said irritably.

Upon seeing Captain Li arrive, Yu Dazhang got excited and was about to get up to greet him. However, due to the large movement, he aggravated the wound on his shoulder and immediately winced in pain.

"Alright, alright, you should lie down now."

Seeing this, Li Jun quickly stepped forward and helped Yu Dazhang up.
"You're not exactly a newbie anymore, so why are you still so reckless?"

He scolded her verbally, but his face showed concern.

"It was just a coincidence," Yu Dazhang said dismissively.

"It's good that you're alright." Li Jun breathed a sigh of relief.

"When I arrived, Director Liu told me that if your injuries were serious, I should bring you back to Songhai immediately. Now it seems that he was overthinking it."

The leader's concern must be conveyed effectively.

Without this awareness, Captain Li wouldn't have been able to become the branch captain.

"It's alright for now," Yu Dazhang said nonchalantly.

"I'm just waiting for the stitches to be removed. If the wound heals well, I'll be discharged directly."

He could actually be discharged from the hospital right now.

However, Qu Tuotuo insisted that he observe for a few more days, and at least wait until the stitches were removed before he could leave.

Yu Dazhang was quite happy to have some free time.

Such a big case, rescuing so many mentally disabled people and recovering so much stolen money.

He was also injured.

What's wrong with staying in the hospital a few more days? It's not like the police force can't function without you.

Two more days passed.

Yu Dazhang's stitches were removed, and the thick bandage on his head was replaced with a small net bag, which looked rather comical at first glance.

According to the doctor, the wound is healing very well, and after discharge, just be careful to avoid infection and inflammation.

Seeing that he was alright, Li Jun took a car back to Songhai yesterday. As the detachment leader, he also had many responsibilities, so he naturally couldn't stay here with him forever.

He was picked up from the hospital by Lü Zhongxin, who was driving Yu Dazhang's SUV.

After dropping them off at the hotel that Qu Tuotuo had booked in advance, Lü Zhongxin pulled Yu Dazhang aside:
"If you're all better now, go to the Baling City Public Security Bureau. Everyone there is waiting for you to be discharged from the hospital."

Wait for me? Yu Dazhang didn't understand at first.

At this stage of the case, all that's left is to follow the procedures.

Interrogation, establishing a chain of evidence, and apprehending the perpetrator—this is a process that any criminal investigator can follow, so why wait for me?

In his view, the task force was no longer needed to apprehend the criminals.

The maritime transport route is under the jurisdiction of the Coast Guard.

The National Security Bureau certainly won't stand idly by when it comes to foreign gangs.

While he was at the hospital, he heard from Hua that Guoan had sent people to take the foreigner away.

While they might not be able to completely wipe out the enemy, they will certainly cut off their access to the country based on national security considerations.

Now that all the main culprits have been caught and the money has been recovered, why would they still be looking for me?
Yu Dazhang looked at his master and asked:
"Do you know why you're looking for me?"

Lü Zhongxin's expression was somewhat strange, and he answered vaguely:

"You're the team leader, so it's only right that the task force waits for you to get back to work. If you're not feeling well yet, you can rest at the hotel for a couple of days before you go."

Master isn't like that... He rarely saw Lü Zhongxin speak hesitantly.

After exchanging a few words with Qu Tuotuo, he followed his master to the Baling City Public Security Bureau.

From the moment he entered the municipal bureau building, Yu Dazhang sensed that something was amiss.

The way people look at me here is strange; there's a hint of admiration, and a touch of awe.

The officers on duty even stood up and stared at him.

Yu Dazhang couldn't help but look behind him, wondering if a leader from the Municipal Bureau was following him.

What is this for?

Does the Baling City Public Security Bureau have some strange tradition?

Along the way, whenever a police officer saw him, they would immediately stop and stand aside, looking at him with awe.

Later, Yu Dazhang couldn't hold back any longer. On the way upstairs, he grabbed his master and asked:
"What's wrong with the people here? The way they look at me is so creepy. They looked at me like I was some kind of rare species."

Lü Zhongxin was amused by his apprentice's words.

He patted Yu Dazhang on the shoulder and said with a smile:

“You’re a celebrity now. In Baling City, almost every police officer knows your name.”

"Why?" he asked, looking bewildered.

In his memory, he was shot twice on the very day he arrived in Baling, and has been hospitalized ever since.

He had no chance to get in touch with his colleagues here.

Not to mention getting to know the people here.

"The gunfight scene you left behind shocked the people at the city bureau and the local police station."

Lu Zhongxin lowered his voice and said:
"I doubt they've ever seen a scene like that since they joined the police force."

"There are rumors that there were dead people at the scene, all of whom you killed with a single shot. Nobody knows exactly how you did it."

As he said these words, he looked at his apprentice with admiration.

However, he was much calmer than the others.

Lü Zhongxin thought this was nothing to be surprised about; he had seen two similar scenes before.

In terms of gore, this one can only rank second.

When his apprentice was attacked, various human organs were scattered all over the place, and even the forensic doctor couldn't tell whose organs they were when he arrived at the scene.

"These people here are such gossips," Yu Dazhang remarked.

He also thought it was nothing.

In that situation, even the slightest hesitation would have meant certain death; I survived purely by sheer luck.

Come to the conference room.

Yu Dazhang discovered that the members of the special task force were already waiting there.

Upon his arrival, everyone, including Hua Dui, turned their attention to him.

next second...

Everyone stood up in unison.
