I became the police station's darling after I could understand what the furry creature was sayi

Li Feng sat up straight instantly, his eyes wide open, silently urging him to speak quickly.

Xu Yunli looked at Nan Shu, thought of the outcome, pursed his lips, and said:
"To be precise, Liu Tiandian does not have stomach cancer, he just has some erosion."

"what?!"

Li Feng was stunned.

The volume unconsciously rose several decibels, simply because the autopsy results were too shocking: "No stomach cancer... why did you need surgery?"

Li Feng had considered that something unexpected might have happened to the doctor during the surgery, such as his hand shaking or cramping, or that he was too tired and sutured the wound incorrectly. But he never expected that Liu Tiandian was not sick at all.

Erosion...isn't that just a common inflammation? He has a bit of that too. He can get better after taking medicine for half a month. Just eat a light diet in between. It's not going to kill him!

Xu Yunli remained silent.

Yes, if there's no illness, why would it require surgery?

In other words, it was wrong from the very beginning. After the shadow was confirmed, an endoscopy was performed to extract tissue for experiments to determine whether it was erosion or something else. At each step, there was an opportunity to stop and discover the problem, but Liu Tiandian missed them all. Or rather, at each step, someone made a mistake.

This ultimately led to Liu Tiandian's death.

If Li Chun hadn't discovered the problem and preserved the body so well, the truth would never have been revealed. As for how many people should be held responsible for these erroneous steps, we'll have to wait for the results of the subsequent investigation.

The staff brought over a steaming hot late-night snack; the rising steam from the porridge eased the somber atmosphere somewhat.

"Let's eat something first."

Nan Shu pushed the porridge in front of Xu Yunli.

The person is already dead. All they can do is reveal the truth to the public. Nan Shu understood this principle from the day she chose to become a forensic doctor in her previous life.

No matter how much you feel, people can't come back to life. You still have to eat properly.

Xu Yunli hummed softly, picked up the spoon, and slowly stirred the boiling porridge to cool it down. When the temperature was right, the warm porridge went down his throat and into his stomach. His esophagus and stomach instantly felt alive, and the heat spread from his stomach to his limbs and bones. Only then did the fatigue belatedly emerge.

Li Feng ordered barbecue skewers for himself and Nan Shu, and the three of them ate them.

After that, the three of them tacitly avoided discussing the topic further.

Through the rising steam, Xu Yunli looked up at the girl opposite him.

Time passes peacefully.

……

Results verification, hospital investigation, one-on-one interviews, etc.

With the autopsy report in hand, the subsequent investigation process became instantly clear. From the initial gastroscopy and colonoscopy to the attending physician and the list of surgical participants, each step was meticulously examined to determine who was responsible for which part and what responsibilities they failed to fulfill…

Within three days, the inspectors had already figured out everything.

By then, public opinion had already become quite heated.

Those who should be arrested should be arrested, and those who should be dealt with should be dealt with.

Although the announcement of the handling of the matter did not satisfy everyone, the public opinion finally stopped fermenting after seeing the corresponding results.

"Xiao Nan, the anchor, and Dr. Xu, thank you so much. Without you, my brother would have died under mysterious circumstances."

Inside the private room, Li Chun raised his wine glass, his eyes red, and his words were extremely earnest.

"I...I really don't know how to thank you. Let me kowtow to you."

As he spoke, Li Chun pushed back the chair and was about to kneel down when Xu Yunli grabbed his arm and stopped him in mid-air.

“We appreciate your kind gesture, but there’s no need for you to kneel and kowtow.” Xu Yunli helped him up and patted Li Chun on the shoulder. “This is what we should do. You did a great job in this matter and you have lived up to Liu Tiandian’s support.”

If Li Chun hadn't discovered the anomaly and, despite the pressure, forcibly frozen Liu Tiandian's body, the truth that followed would never have come to light.

Li Chun was only nineteen years old. Even though he was calm and determined, the pressure he faced in the face of so many rumors and doubts was unimaginable.

For the past two weeks, he had barely slept a wink. His eyes were bloodshot. When he heard Xu Yunli's words, he sniffed, tried to hold back, but couldn't. He turned his head to the side, his shoulders heaving, and cried like a child.

"Okay, you've weathered so many storms, why are you crying like a child now that you've won?"

The person speaking was none other than Liu Tiandian's top-tier fan, who had explained and supplemented Nan Shu's information in her live stream.

He and Liu Tiandian are practically from the same hometown. He's in his forties and now owns a factory. He's a big fan of Liu Tiandian. Back then, seeing how hard Liu Tiandian was living, he secretly offered to help him out, but Liu Tiandian refused. He's watched his fellow townsman gradually improve his life.

I also admire Liu Tiandian's character of helping others and benefiting the world when he is successful, so I immediately contacted Li Chun after Liu Tiandian got into trouble.

Only those who have truly experienced it can understand the hardships involved. After he patted Li Chun on the shoulder and said those words, the nearly fifty-year-old man's eyes instantly welled up with tears.

then.

The two embraced and wept bitterly in the private room.

Xu Yunli: ...

Xu Yunli moved his lips, about to say a few words of advice, when he heard a slight sobbing sound and turned to look.

Suddenly, Nan Shu, holding an empty wine glass, her almond-shaped eyes misty and red at the corners, looked at Li Chun and the other man. As if infected by their emotions, she also shed two small pearls.

Xu Yunli: ...

I pressed my fingertip against my forehead; my head was throbbing.

Fortunately, Li Feng realized the situation was not right and didn't dare to drink, and he was able to help Li Chun and the other man, who were drunk, into the car.

It was the first time any of them had been to Ningcheng, and they were all unfamiliar with the place. In addition, they were all drunk, so Li Feng and the others didn't dare to take them home. What if something unexpected happened? They could only work together with Liu Ming to take them to the hotel.

Men carrying men, using their backs and shoulders, just like human punching bags, as long as they don't die, that's fine...

Li Feng looked at Nan Shu, who was leaning on Xu Yunli's shoulder and seemed to have fallen asleep, and was at a loss.

If he takes Xiao Nan back, will Captain Nan beat him to death if he finds out?
Just as he was struggling with this, he saw Xu Yunli support Nan Shu's head with his palm, move his body and get out of the car. Then, before Li Feng could react, he saw Xu Yunli reach out and hug Nan Shu in his arms.

"Close the car door."

Xu Yunli said.

Li Feng then realized what was happening, responded twice, quickly closed the car door, and followed Xu Yunli into the hotel.

From the elevator to the room door, Li Feng's mind was completely blank, and he couldn't quite process what was happening.

It wasn't until she saw Xu Yunli carry her into the room, place her on the bed, and help her take off her shoes and coat that she finally came to her senses.

Li Feng stood at the door, extremely conflicted.

Is he leaving, or leaving, or... leaving?

I feel like he's a bit superfluous right now.

Can…

If he leaves, leaving the forensic doctor and Xiao Nan alone together... wouldn't that be inappropriate? (End of Chapter)
