Chapter 47 Face to Face

  When Zhao Rui walked into the ward, the crowd in the ward was still discussing and arguing, exceptionally lively.

  "What a commotion! What are they all talking about?" He walked up to Sun Xiaolan and asked with a smile.

  "Fang Hai was killed last night!"

  Sun Xiaolan smiled and waved the newspaper with her hand, the pretty face no longer had the sorrow of the past few days, and the whole person seemed to have become much more cheerful.

  "Fang Hai? Isn't he the real estate developer who built New City Garden?" Zhao Rui pretended to be clueless and asked.

  "Right! He's the scoundrel who had my parents beaten up!" Sun Xiaolan nodded, "This newspaper says that Fang Hai is a cruel and ruthless person with many enemies, so it's very likely that this case is a revenge killing."

  Xiao Lan's mother said angrily, "That's what he deserves! Fang Hai was originally a street thug, but later became a billionaire. Who knows how many bad things he did to accumulate this wealth? He can poison us, and I'm afraid he has done even more ruthless things. If we really dig up his old bottom, sentencing him to death ten times would be enough!"

  "Right!"

  "Right! He should have died long ago, now he's getting off easy!"

  The other patients nodded in agreement.

  Sun Xiaolan said: "I just don't know who killed Fang Hai. To be honest, I'm really grateful to him. Without him, my parents wouldn't have been able to get justice for who knows how long."

  She couldn't help but stick out her little tongue: "Am I being a bit too ruthless saying this?"

  "It's normal for you to think that way." Xiaolan's mother comforted, "Actually, we all have the same thoughts as you. It's not that we are cruel, but rather Fang Hai's evil deeds have reached the heavens and outraged both heaven and man."

  Sun Xiaolan felt a bit better and said, "However, that person who took down Fang Hai was really bold, daring to rush into Fang Hai's home alone. Fang Hai had four armed bodyguards!"

  "He might be a super killer hired by Fang Haiqiu, with high skills and great courage, not putting those few people in his eyes."

  "Perhaps it's a chivalrous hero who upholds justice?" someone guessed.

  Another person immediately retorted: "Chivalrous hero? You must have read too much Jin Yong! Where can you find chivalrous heroes nowadays? Even if there were any, Fang Hai's bodyguards are all armed with guns. A hail of bullets would turn him into a sieve!"

  This remark immediately triggered a burst of laughter.

  Zhao Rui listened to these comments and smiled along with them.

  He has no sympathy for heaven and human beings, nor does he have the idea of replacing heaven with his own way, at most, he is just a young man who is resentful of the world.

  His idea was simple, just to protect the people around him from being hurt. If anyone dared to touch this taboo, he would absolutely make a ruthless counterattack without hesitation.

  "Xiao Rui, why are you smiling so strangely?" Sun Xiaolan coquettishly gave him a sideways glance.

  "Is there?" Zhao Rui spread out his hands, with an innocent face.

  "Of course!" Sun Xiaolan tiptoed, stretched out her hand and patted his head with a very elder sister-like gesture, "You! What's wrong with you? You always keep everything to yourself. I feel like I'm getting more and more confused about you! Is it because you haven't found a girlfriend yet, which has warped your personality? Then I, as your sister, need to hurry up and find one for you!"

  Sun Xiaolan was tall and slender, at 1.7 meters, but still 10 centimeters shorter than Zhao Rui. Now she reached out to touch his head, which made Zhao Rui somewhat laugh and cry at the same time.

  In the ward, a male patient in his thirties couldn't help but laugh and say: "Still looking? Isn't this one ready-made?"

  "Ready? Who is it?" Sun Xiaolan asked dazedly.

  "Hey!" The man burst out laughing, "I think you two are quite a match in terms of appearance and personality!"

  As he said this, he turned his head and asked the other patients in the ward, "Hey, don't you guys think so?"

  "Yes!"

  Everyone else burst out laughing and cheering.

  Sun Xiaolan's pretty face turned bright red with shame, and she buried her head in her mother's arms, not daring to lift it up. Zhao Rui, on the other hand, had a smiling face, looking very calm and composed, his thick skin having long since gotten used to such situations.

  Xiao Lan's parents lay in bed, smiling silently. They had always liked Zhao Rui, and Zhao Rui was good to them too, but this young person's emotional matters were still best left for the young people themselves to handle.

  The people in the ward were laughing and chatting when the door was suddenly pushed open.

  Zhao Rui turned his head and saw a female police officer in uniform walking in with the nurse.

  This policewoman is extremely beautiful, with short hair, willow eyebrows and phoenix eyes, her lips are like cherry blossoms, and her eyebrows exude an aura of elegance, looking very calm and composed, making people dare not approach her easily.

  The policewoman walked into the ward, scanned everyone with a glance, and then followed the nurse's guidance to walk between Xiaolan's parents' beds. She pulled out her police badge from her pocket and flashed it: "My name is Zhang Xin. I'm sure you've all heard about the murder of Fang Hai, the general manager of Hengli Real Estate? I heard that before his death, he had used violent means to deal with the owners of Xincheng Garden, causing many people to be injured. As a result, the owners of Xincheng Garden are extremely resentful towards him. That's why I'm here to understand the situation. Can you two tell me about it?"

  Xiao Lan's parents exchanged a glance, never expecting that they would be severely beaten by Fang Hai's thugs and become the ones being investigated!

  However, they felt that they had nothing to do with the case and were clear in their conscience, so they very calmly told Zhang Xin everything they knew.

  Zhang Xin listened and took notes at the same time, occasionally asking some questions. The questioning lasted for nearly half an hour before it ended.

  After determining that nothing could be asked from Sun Xiaolan's parents, Zhang Xin closed her notebook and said thank you, preparing to leave. Before leaving, she looked at Sun Xiaolan and Zhao Rui with a glance, and suddenly asked: "Who are these two?"

  "My daughter Xiaolan and neighbor Xiao Rui have been good friends since childhood, now they are both studying at Dongfang University," replied Xiaolan's mother.

  Zhang Xin let out an "oh" and her eyes swept over Xiao Lan, then turned back to Zhao Rui's face.

  Zhao Rui only felt that Zhang Xin's gaze was extremely sharp, as if it could see into a person's heart.

  However, from start to finish, his expression did not change in the slightest, and he only nodded politely towards Liang Xin.

  It was such a move that left a deep impression on Zhang Xin, who felt that this ancient bronze-skinned and handsome university student, under her gaze, was surprisingly calm and composed, with extremely good psychological quality.

  Of course, she didn't suspect Zhao Rui because she subconsciously thought that an ordinary college student couldn't kill Fang Hai and his four armed bodyguards in a short time.
