chasing the dark

Chapter 199 Quarrel
Ye Zhanzhou naturally knew what it meant.

Although he doesn't really care about the end-of-year assessment and job promotion, if there is an opportunity, no one will give up, right?
Coming out of Qiao Mingshan's office, he asked Shang Jiangyu and Ding Xuan to go to the hospital together.

Gu Zhengqing fell ill in a club. Due to the accident, the emergency center received a call and sent a car to take him to the nearest Second Affiliated Hospital of Mingyang Medical College.

The current hospital has canceled the mortuary long ago. After the death of the patients, they are directly taken to the funeral parlor for temporary storage. According to the local customs in Mingyang, the corpses are buried for three days before being cremated.

Because Gu Zhenghua had doubts about his brother's death, Gu Zhengqing's body was not taken away.

The three of them drove to the Second Affiliated Hospital, and went directly to the sixteenth floor according to what the caretaker Zhenghua said.

As soon as I got off the elevator, I heard a loud noise.

Two men in black suits guarded one side of the corridor and directly blocked their way.

Ding Xuan showed his ID to show his identity.

The black suit didn't let them go directly, but left one person to guard outside, while the other went in to report the news.

Ding Xuan rolled his eyelids in dissatisfaction: "If we hadn't received the alarm, we wouldn't have come!"

The black suit acted as if he hadn't heard, still looking ahead.

Fortunately, after waiting for a long time, the noise inside stopped, and a man came out in a hurry: "I'm Gu Zhenghua, who are you?"

Gu Zhenghua is in his 40s, with a slightly fat body, wearing a gray dark striped suit.His hair was a bit messy, and his expression was tired.

Ding Xuan sized him up, took out his ID again, and introduced him.

Gu Zhenghua seemed very satisfied with their identities, and directly brought them in.

There are three wards on this side of the corridor, the first two are empty, and a few people are standing at the door of the third.

It's a suite, like a hotel room.

Outside is the living room, with a combination sofa, coffee table, and a cooking table with a microwave oven and an electric kettle, and next to it is a small refrigerator that opens up and down.

At this moment, a woman was sitting on the sofa, holding a handkerchief between her eyebrows.

Hearing movement, she raised her head.

The woman looked to be in her thirties, wearing a wool skirt and ankle-length leather boots.Her eyebrows and eyes are very delicate. Although her eyes are red and her low ponytail is a little disheveled, it still doesn't affect her beauty.

"This is my brother's current wife, Qi Meier." Gu Zhenghua's way of introduction is very intriguing.It could be seen that he did not approve of this young sister-in-law.

Although Qi Meier was reluctant, she still got up and said hello.

"Tell me the reason for calling the police." Ye Zhanzhou lifted his trousers and sat down on the sofa.

"The doctor has already said that Zhengqing died of sudden cardiac death." Qi Meier's eyes were filled with resentment, "But..."

Gu Zhenghua interrupted her directly: "My brother has always been in good health, how could he suddenly die suddenly?"

Qi Meier said: "After all, he is old, and he doesn't always have a good rest. Some time ago, he also said that his chest was uncomfortable..."

"Why haven't I heard from my brother?" Gu Zhenghua interrupted her again, "I think you are just guilty."

"You can't say that. What guilt do I have? It's not like you don't know what I have treated him during these years with him. "

"It's useless to say these things, I want an explanation now!"

"The doctor has given a conclusion, what else do you want?"

"I want to hear the truth!"

Ye Zhanzhou coughed twice: "Stop arguing, don't you just want to know the real cause of death? Then do an autopsy."

"No way!" Qi Meier stood up excitedly, "He's gone, why don't you leave him a whole body?"

"Don't get excited." Jiang Yu stood up, supported her arm, and told her to sit down, "Since there are doubts about the cause of death, an autopsy is the best way."

Qi Meier wiped away her tears and said: "Zhengqing happened in the clubhouse. There were many people present at the time, which can prove that he fainted suddenly."

Gu Zhenghua bared: "That's not sure, what if he ate something he shouldn't have eaten before going to the club?"

Ye Zhanzhou really didn't like to hear them quarreling, so he pointed to the inside: "Is there a person inside?"

"Here." Gu Zhenghua got up and went to push open the door, "Take a look first, maybe you can find something."

The curtains in the inner room were drawn, so there was not enough light.But you can see a hospital bed, an accompanying bed, a small fabric sofa by the window, and an LCD TV on the wall.

The hospital bed at this moment is covered with a white sheet, and it can be seen that there is a human figure underneath.

Gu Zhenghua stepped forward and lifted the corner of the cloth: "This is my brother. I received the call last night. When I arrived, there was no one there, and I even put on my clothes."

"Can you turn on the light?" Ye Zhanzhou asked.

Ordinary people have some taboos about the death of their loved ones. Now the curtains in this ward are drawn tightly, because they are afraid that the deceased will be exposed to the sun, which is unlucky.

Gu Zhenghua didn't say anything, and just turned on the switch on the wall.

On the ceiling are long and thin LED tubes commonly used in hospitals. Once turned on, the whole room becomes bright.

Ye Zhanzhou lifted the sheet up to the chest of the deceased, exposing his entire face to the light.

Gu Zhengqing and his younger brother looked six to seven points alike, but looked older.

At this moment, his complexion was not as gray as a dead person's usual, but rather bruised and purple.Half-parted lips are darker, even purplish black.

His eyes were tightly closed, and the lines between his brows were deep, as if he was enduring some pain.

A soft cry came from the door, it was Qi Meier.

She leaned halfway against the door frame, covered her mouth with a handkerchief, tears streaming down her cheeks.

Ye Zhanzhou covered the sheet again, turned around and said, "Since we have reported to the police, our opinion is to conduct an autopsy as soon as possible to find out the cause of Mr. Gu's death. If it is homicide, the public security organs will immediately file a case for investigation."

"Then what if it's not?" Qi Meier asked.

Before Ye Zhanzhou could answer, Qi Zhenghua rushed to say, "Isn't it the funeral, the funeral, the burial?"

Ye Zhanzhou nodded: "Yes, if it is confirmed that the death was normal, the family members will take the body back and handle it by themselves. You'd better make up your mind as soon as possible, it's not a problem for this person to stop here all the time."

What he said was true. Although it is winter now, this place is not outdoors. The heating in the hospital is very good, and the temperature in the ward is at least 22 degrees.

Under such circumstances, the corpse must be disposed of as soon as possible, otherwise this room will not be able to enter in a short time.

Gu Zhenghua and Qi Meier naturally understood this truth, and they started arguing about it again.

"What's the use of you being so noisy?" Ding Xuan said irritably, "Why don't you call all your family members over and vote with a show of hands, and the minority obeys the majority."

Gu Zhengqing fainted suddenly and was sent to the hospital, where rescue failed and died.In such cases, an autopsy can only be performed with the consent of the family.

Now, my brother-in-law and sister-in-law can't stop arguing, which is really difficult.
