Crazy Detective

Yaoming's First People's Hospital, 9 a.m., sunny weather outside...

Zhao Yu, who had been fast asleep, suddenly felt something strange in his palm. Before he opened his eyes, he instinctively grasped it. It was smooth and soft.

After hearing a woman scream, Zhao Yu had awakened completely to find that he was holding the hand of a female nurse. The nurse was taking the transfusion tube out of him.

"Boss... Hey..." Suddenly, Zhao Yu heard Cui Lizhu's voice.

Zhao Yu then realized his impoliteness and immediately released the nurse's hand from his vice grip. The nurse was clearly embarrassed, and she immediately threw Zhao Yu's hand away.

Cui Lizhu stared at Zhao Yu, not knowing what to say.

"Oh, sorry!" Zhao Yu hastily apologized, then scratched his head in embarrassment and asked, "When did I fall asleep?"

"Um... You..." Cui Lizhu had a strange look as she tried to answer him.

Then, Zhao Yu suddenly thought of something, and he grabbed Cui Lizhu's hand and asked, "Cui, Jiang Ke... Did he really escape from prison?"

Cui Lizhu was shocked by his words. "Boss, what are you talking about? If this is true, then why didn't I know about it?"

"Oh..." Only then did Zhao Yu wake up completely from his sleepy trance. He wiped the sweat from his forehead, then swallowed hard and said, "Wow. Okay then… It must have been a nightmare!"

"Alright boss, you really should get some rest!" Cui Lizhu was relieved to hear this, and she said quickly, "Your doctor just scolded us, saying that although it was only ankle surgery, you must still get adequate rest. Also, you can't get too anxious... Or angry!"

Zhao Yu took a deep breath. When he looked out the window and saw the sunshine, he finally felt better. Also, his head wasn't as swollen or painful as it was last night.

Oh, I see... As Zhao Yu recalled what had happened last night, he finally figured out why he was had been so tired.

Besides the side effects of the anesthetics, there was one other very important factor that had played into it... The side effects of the Energy Booster! At this moment, although he had recovered most of his energy, he still felt sore and exhausted.

"Boss, I know what you're so worried about!" Cui Lizhu quickly poured a glass of water for Zhao Yu as she gently advised him, "Last night in the interrogation room, I could see that the relationship between Jiang Ke and Cui Xiaolong was strong! After Jiang Ke robbed the van, he had a chance to escape, but he went back to where the second tank truck was. Apparently, he went there to pick up Cui Xiaolong, not knowing that you had already killed him. In fact, he still doesn't appear to know that!"

Cui Lizhu then bit her lip, took a breath, and continued, "If Jiang Ke finds the truth out later, he will surely seek revenge! But, you can rest assured that reality is different from the movies. Jiang Ke has been caught, and as far as I know, criminals like Jiang Ke have never escaped from prison. So, you don't have to worry about him coming after you."

At this time, Officer Wang came in, wheeling in a white board to use for case analysis. He looked cheerful as he said, "After you left last night, Jiang Ke confessed to everything and told us all about the murders that he committed. Even if he hadn't admitted his guilt, the van driver's death alone would have been enough to get the death penalty for him! So, you don't have to worry about him seeking revenge on you ever again!"

Officer Wang smiled, then added, "What you should pay attention to is your speech. After all, you will need to give a speech when you receive your commendation! Congratulations, group leader Zhao, you have made a great contribution, and our city is safer now because of you!"

After that, he winked at Cui Lizhu, then pointed to the white board and whispered, "Right?"

"Yes!" After Cui Lizhu nodded at Officer Wang, she turned to Zhao Yu and said, "Boss, I was wrong last night. You scolded me with good reason. I shouldn't have been making random guesses. I apologize, and I hope that you can forgive me, as I was just trying to help you!"

"Huh?" Zhao Yu tried hard to recall what in the world she was talking about, and he asked doubtfully, "What do you mean? When did I scold you?"

Cui Lizhu was suddenly speechless, and she looked at Zhao Yu in blank amazement.

"Hmm..." Officer Wang thought for a moment, then explained, "It's true. You really gave her a good scolding last night! You blamed her for making strange and random guesses, which you said were causing you trouble! Then, you became so angry that you passed out! We even called the doctor, who said that you were too tired and would recover after a good rest. We were so worried about you!"

"Da*n! Are you serious?" Zhao Yu scratched his head, but still could not remember scolding Cui Lizhu, much less fainting! All he could think was... It must have been the side effects of the Energy Booster!

"Hey, don't play games with me! I am sincerely apologizing here! Don't say that you don't remember!" Cui Lizhu stared at him in disbelief. Then, she ran over to Officer Wang and pointed at another white board that was covered with notes.

As Cui Lizhu pointed to the whiteboard, she said, "Look! It took me hours to finish this! I used your method! You see, there's not a single guess on it! It's all based on all of the valid clues that we have at present!"

Zhao Yu waved his hand, and Officer Wang immediately helped Cui Lizhu pull the white board over in front of him. The notes written on the whiteboard were indeed very similar to his style.Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click www.webnovel.com for visiting.

Moreover, it could be seen from the lines that Cui Lizhu had really put a lot of thought into it. She had carefully connected every relevant clue with a red line. For those clues that she had doubts about, she had placed question marks beside them.

"Wow... Good job! Isee that you are worthy of being my mentee!" Zhao Yu nodded and laughed. "It seems that I was too kind to you in the past. I should scold you more often in the future, especially if it yields results like this! That's why people often say that talent is forced rather than coaxed!"

"Hey! You are carrying this too far." Cui Lizhu rolled her eyes at Zhao Yu, then reluctantly smiled and said, "Okay! This time, I won't spew any more nonsense. Are you satisfied with that compromise?"

Zhao Yu waved at Officer Wang, then said, "Both of you better watch out. I'm going to use some magic now, and I don't want you to get hurt."

Zhao Yu then drew a circle in the air with one hand, while repeating like a mad man, "Mi ma mi ma mi ma..."

Officer Wang didn't have the slightest idea what Zhao Yu was doing, so he just stared at him with eyes that were as wide as saucers! Zhao Yu continued to recite his strange incantation, but suddenly looked up to see a group of people standing at the door of the ward. These people were all dressed in bright clothes and were holding flowers and gifts in their hands!

It turned out that they were local officials, who had come to visit Zhao Yu. But, their timing couldn't have been worse, as they had just happened to show up right as Zhao Yu was doing such a strange thing!

One of the female officials was so shocked by his strange behavior upon entering his room, that she dropped the entire carton of eggs that she had brought for Zhao Yu!
