Chapter 230 Police dispatch, investigation

As soon as the comrades at the police station received the call from the old lady, the alarm sounded immediately, and the noise immediately broke the silence in the police station.

The police officers immediately became nervous and quickly organized their equipment. Their movements were very skillful and it was obvious that they were well-trained.

Then they all quickly got into the police car, which drove straight to the hospital at full speed.

The atmosphere in the police car was so depressing. The police officers had serious faces and their eyes were full of attention to the case and confusion.

The atmosphere inside the police car was so depressing that it felt like water could be squeezed out of it.

The faces of the police officers were as serious as stone, and their eyes were full of great attention paid to this case.

The young policeman Xiao Li couldn't hold it in any longer and was the first to break the dead silence.

He frowned, and said with a hint of urgency and uneasiness in his tone: "This case sounds weird. It must be difficult to handle if someone bites you like that in the middle of the night."

After hearing this, the experienced Lao Zhang nodded slightly and responded calmly and calmly: "Don't jump to conclusions. Let's wait until we get to the hospital and ask about the situation carefully before we decide."

Lao Zhang's words were like a shot of sedative in the slightly restless atmosphere, allowing everyone to calm down a little.

Not long after, the police car rushed to the hospital.

The police officers didn't waste a moment and strode straight towards the doctor's office.

Officer Zhao, who was in charge of the case, walked to the office door and knocked gently and politely. He put his ear close to the door, and only after hearing the doctor's response did he carefully and slowly push the door open.

After entering, Officer Zhao first greeted the doctor politely, then got straight to the point and asked in a serious tone, "Hello, doctor. We are from the Nanluoguxiang Police Station. We are here to investigate the case of He Yuzhu being bitten. Could you please tell us in detail about the patient's current condition?"

The doctor pushed his glasses up on his nose, looked through them, and said seriously and professionally, "This patient was seriously injured. His penis was bitten off and he bled a lot. We tried very hard to save his life temporarily, but he is still in a deep coma. The risk of infection is very high. We don't know if he can wake up."

The doctor's words were like a huge rock that hit the police officers hard. They all knew that this case must be extremely complicated and difficult to handle.

After hearing this, Officer Zhao frowned even more tightly, and then asked, "Based on the condition of the wound, can you tell what animal caused the attack?"

The doctor nodded slightly, thinking as he said, "From the appearance and marks of the wound, it should be a large dog, but the specific breed is not clear. Moreover, the wound is in such a special place, and the injury is so severe, which is rare. The wound is deep and the degree of tearing is also large, so the bite force must be very strong. Judging from the distance and shape of the tooth marks, it seems to be caused by a medium or large dog."

"Then could you please bring us the clothes that He Yuzhu was wearing when he was injured? This is crucial to our investigation of this case. Maybe we can find some important clues."

Officer Zhao asked earnestly and sincerely.

The doctor was not vague and immediately arranged for a nurse to get the clothes.

After a while, the nurse brought the clothes and the police officers took them carefully.

At this time, policeman Xiao Wang came close to the clothes and sniffed hard, his brows frowned, as if he smelled something wrong, but he couldn't put his finger on it.

He spread out the clothes again and looked carefully at the folds and dirty spots on the clothes. He found that there was not only the smell of meat and blood on the clothes, but also some things like animal hair, which was gray in color and rough to the touch. This made him even more suspicious.

After that, they turned and went to the ward.

Officer Zhao locked his eyes on Yi Zhonghai and asked in a low voice, "Are you Yi Zhonghai? Could you please tell us in detail what happened last night? What were you and Xu Damao doing at the time?"

Yi Zhonghai sighed deeply, and that sigh seemed to be filled with endless fatigue and worry, and then he slowly said: "A few people in the courtyard drank together last night. At the beginning, they just chatted about family matters and the atmosphere was okay. After a few rounds of drinking, I drank too much and was so drunk that the aunts sent me home. I don’t know what happened next. By the time I found out, Shazhu had gotten into trouble."

After listening to this, Officer Zhao turned to look at Xu Damao and asked, "What about you, Xu Damao? What happened to you last night?"

Xu Damao pretended to be weak and sick, and said weakly: "Comrade police, I was drunk as a pile of mud last night. I don't remember when I went to the toilet, let alone hurting Sha Zhu. Later, Cao Wei saw me and Sha Zhu next to the toilet. I really don't know anything. Cao Wei and the aunties can testify for me. Besides, I reconciled with Sha Zhu yesterday. We agreed that the past was in the past and we would be good brothers in the future. Why would I hurt him? At that time, I was thinking that we would help each other and live a good life in the courtyard in the future. I didn't expect such a bad thing to happen."

The police officers took pens and carefully recorded this information while winking at each other. The meaning in their eyes was obvious. They all felt that this matter was definitely not as simple as Xu Damao said.

The policemen stared at Xu Damao without blinking, their eyes so sharp that it seemed as if they could see through him and directly peek into the truth hidden deep in his soul.

Officer Zhao was the first to break the suffocating silence. He said in a steady and authoritative voice, "Xu Damao, everyone in the hospital knows about the conflict between you and He Yuzhu, but you suddenly said you wanted to reconcile. This change is too fast. You have to give us a reasonable reason why you suddenly decided to do so."

Xu Damao lowered his head and remained silent for a long time, as if he was trying to organize his words, or as if he was making up a perfect lie.

After a long while, he slowly raised his head, pretending to be helpless and lonely in his eyes, and said: "Comrade police, you also know my current situation. With my health and no children, I may not be able to get married in this life. At night, I tossed and turned and couldn't sleep, always worrying about the future, and my heart was panicking. I looked at this empty house and wondered how I would live in the future. I can't be alone like this. I used to quarrel with others in this courtyard and made the relationship stiff. Now I understand, if it continues like this, when I am old and sick, there will be no one to take care of me, and I can't even find someone to collect my body. That would be too miserable."

Xu Damao glanced at Yi Zhonghai furtively, and then said, "I thought of the first uncle. The first uncle also has no children, just like me, but he has a high prestige in the courtyard, which is accumulated slowly by being kind. He has always gotten along well with the neighbors. I thought, I have to learn from the first uncle, change myself, and get along well with the people in the courtyard. Sha Zhu is also an important person in the courtyard. If I can resolve all the hatred with him, I will definitely have a better life in the courtyard in the future. I really want to change for the better and get along well with everyone again, but now this has happened, and I have become a suspect. I feel wronged."

When Yi Zhonghai heard this, his face instantly became as gloomy as the sky before a storm, covered with dark clouds and frighteningly dark.

His lips trembled slightly with anger, and it was obvious that he was furious with Xu Damao's sarcastic words.

On the surface, Xu Damao seemed to want to learn from him, but in fact, his words were full of sarcasm, as if implying that his status as an orphan was a sad and lamentable situation, and even maliciously misinterpreted his usual kind behavior as a means to have someone to rely on in his old age.

The anger in Yi Zhonghai's heart suddenly flared up like a volcano about to erupt, but he didn't know how to refute it forcefully.

After all, Xu Damao said these words in the name of learning from him. If he couldn't control his temper and got furious at this time, it would make him appear narrow-minded and not magnanimous enough.

But if I just swallowed this anger, I would feel suffocated and uncomfortable, as if a huge rock was pressing on my chest and I couldn't breathe.

He could only swear secretly in his heart that he would do everything he could to make the truth known to the world and never let Xu Damao get away with it so easily and escape legal sanctions.

The policemen listened quietly to Xu Damao's explanation and exchanged understanding glances with each other. The meaning contained in that look was very complicated, including doubt, thinking, and a persistent search for the truth.

The young policeman Xiao Li frowned slightly, seeming to disagree with Xu Damao's words, but due to his professional ethics as a police officer, he could not show it easily.

He pondered in his heart that Xu Damao's words sounded reasonable, but he always felt that something was wrong, a bit hypocritical, but there was no solid evidence to support his idea.

The experienced Old Zhang narrowed his eyes slightly, secretly trying to figure out the real purpose behind Xu Damao's words.

He knew very well that in this case which was as complicated as a maze, every word of the suspect might contain hidden secrets, so he had to analyze them carefully to find the way to the truth.

Officer Zhao's face was still stern and serious. He cleared his throat and said, "Xu Damao, we will temporarily write down what you said. But you must understand that the nature of this case is extremely serious. Your statement is only part of it. Also, when you were drinking last night, did anything unusual happen? Think about it carefully and don't hide anything. If we find out that you are lying, you know the consequences."

Xu Damao nodded quickly like a chicken pecking at rice, his head nodding quickly and anxiously, with beads of sweat already appearing on his forehead: "Comrade police officer, I swear I really want to reconcile with Sha Zhu. When we were drinking last night, we were a little nervous at first, but it was fine after a few drinks. I also apologized to Sha Zhu very sincerely, and he also said that forget about the past, and we will all be good brothers in the future. When we were drinking, we just talked about some things in the hospital and some old memories. There was really nothing special, and I didn't expect such an accident to happen."

While recording Xu Damao's words, the police officers were thinking hard in their hearts how to find a breakthrough from this seemingly reasonable but doubtful explanation and uncover the truth hidden behind the fog.
