Chapter 330 The Strange Disease
"Hello." As soon as the phone was answered, a dying voice came from the opposite side: "Ahem...Old Chen, I don't think I'll be back today, don't wait for me, you and Cyclops go eat the planned grilled fish, I'll make it up when I get back." I couldn't help but wonder, I thought what happened, usually when I saw delicious food, wouldn't even my ancestors be able to forget it, why did my sex change today?

I asked him what was going on, and Tofu said, "Don't mention it, it's probably because the climate is not acclimatized, and I got sick today."

I said: "Fuck you, you haven't left SZ city yet, you're not acclimatized, why didn't you have a few fights before, then you're crossing the province."

Tofu's voice sounded weak, and he said weakly: "I don't want to quarrel with you today, I can't get out of bed now, don't talk about it, I'll talk to you when I sleep." After finishing speaking, the phone hung up with a beep up.The more I thought about it, the more I felt something was wrong, and I always thought it would be better to go and see it. It happened that I was fine today, so I drove the new car I bought last month towards Tofu's house.

On Saturday, the road was very congested. It took nearly an hour and a half for a 10-minute drive.More than ten years ago, this area was very prosperous, but the urban construction of Shenzhen was very fast. In more than ten years, this area has become an old housing area. Most of the houses are very old, except for the villa area not far away near the mountains. There is no change, it still looks quiet and quiet, even more quiet and elegant because there are not as many construction teams as in the past,

The sycamore tree road beside the road has already been moved to other tree species. Even in autumn, these trees are still green, covering the sky and covering the road. There is no rubbish, although it is clean and quiet, but there are few people's activities, and it always feels a little gloomy.

As the vehicle moved forward, the closed iron gates covered with vines were left behind. They were all vacant houses that had already moved away from the residents.I find it quite strange, because this location is a business district within ten minutes' drive, and behind it is the largest mountain system in Shenzhen. The environment is good. With the development, the land price will only get higher and higher. Less and less?
I later learned that this area is a wealthy area, and most of the residents are locals. The reason why the houses are vacant is because most of them have emigrated to Hong Kong or abroad.

It didn't take long, and finally arrived at the place.As Tofu said, the house has been refurbished again, and it is very different from the house in my memory, which is more westernized.

There is electronic monitoring outside the door, so before I could make a move, someone came to answer the door. It was an old lady in her 50s.

After I went in, I found that Old Man Dou was not here. The old aunt told me that Old Man Dou’s family had already moved out, and the property rights were being processed. It would take a while, but Tofu could come back at any time.I took a look, and it seems that old man Dou has accumulated a lot of wealth. There is nothing to say about the facilities and layout of the room. Most likely it was designed by a special person.

Immediately after I went to see Tofu, he took the medicine and lay dead on the bed.I didn't bother him, I turned the house up and down by myself, and I couldn't see anything wrong. The aunt had also worked here for five years and was very familiar with everything. Through chatting, I learned that old man Dou was in the house. When the decision was made to return the house, there was indeed no other change. It seemed that he had suddenly awakened his conscience and wanted to compensate his nephew.

I thought to myself: Is it true that people are getting old, so their hearts are softening?
At nightfall, the tofu got better, and he said, "I'm a rich man now. This location, this layout, this house is worth 1000 million yuan. Please call me rich, Dou rich!"

I said: "Okay, Fuhao Dou, your spring is here, and you can live a good life in the future. If your wife and children are hot on the kang, I won't accompany you." After all, besides the curse, there are too many mysteries. I have a hunch that the road ahead may be even more dangerous. If it is possible, I hope that Tofu and Wen Min will not take risks with me.

The two chatted about some things, and near nightfall, I rested in the guest room for one night, and woke up at three poles the next day. I saw that the tofu was fine, so I planned to leave, but at this moment, the aunt surnamed Hu He ran down and said, "It's not good, the illness seems to be getting worse, and I vomited a lot."

I was taken aback for a moment, and thought to myself, wouldn't it be more exciting to argue last night?Why did you get down today?Seeing the aunt's discolored face, I didn't dare to delay, and rushed upstairs, only to see someone fainted on the bed, and there was a pile of black filth beside the bed, not to mention how disgusting it was.I hurriedly got the tofu into the car and took it to the hospital. During this period, I didn’t wake up. Needless to say, after a lot of trouble, when the results came out, the doctor said that it was suspected to be food poisoning, but after following the treatment method for food poisoning, nothing happened. better.

I thought to myself that I also lived in that house yesterday, eating and drinking like tofu, why was he poisoned when I was fine?Could it be that the poisonous Gu in the tomb of the Earth Ghost King hasn't been cleaned up yet?But when I came back, the tofu and I soaked it in cinnabar according to the method described above. There shouldn’t be any problems. Isn’t I still fine?
I couldn't figure it out for a while, and stayed in the hospital for another two days. Seeing that the time of waking up was less, and the time of drowsiness was more, Tofu lost a lot of weight, as if he was about to hang up. I was transferred to the hospital, and it didn’t improve after two days of tossing. In desperation, I wanted to go to BJ’s hospital, because the difficult virus we contracted at sea was solved there, and the domestic medical level is very high.Thinking of this, I called Gu Wenmin and asked her to go through the formalities first, because the beds over there are very tight, and you have to make an appointment a long time in advance for admission and registration, so don't even try to open the green channel.

When Gu Wenmin heard the situation, she was in a hurry and said, "Why did you tell me now, okay, I'll contact my friend for help right away. It's been so many days. It must not be some kind of food poisoning. Why did it suddenly happen like this?"

I said: "I don't know about the sudden illness." After that, he explained all kinds of reasons, Gu Wenmin thought for a while, and suddenly said: "Have you checked the room where Xiao Dou sleeps?"

"Huh?" I didn't respond for a while.

Immediately afterwards, Gu Wenmin told me about a case she had handled.

The situation at that time was very similar to Tofu's current situation. It was a relatively wealthy family in BJ. His father was hospitalized with cancer, and the two brothers in the family were struggling with inheritance matters.Until one day, my elder brother suddenly fell ill with a strange disease, and died not long after, before my father.

The old man sent the black-haired man to the white-haired man, feeling very sad. He believed that the doctor in the hospital did not do enough to treat him, so people made a fuss in the hospital. In desperation, the hospital proposed to conduct an autopsy through legal procedures.The old man said in his heart that his son is usually very strong and will not die for no reason. Even if the autopsy is not afraid, he must seek justice for him.

On the other end of the phone, Gu Wenmin said, "Guess what was found in the corpse?"

I said, "Is it his brother who murdered him?"

Gu Wenmin said: "That's right, but the murder method is very unbelievable. A very rare virus was found in his body. This virus is not transmitted naturally, but artificially cultivated. Then, we searched In the room where the patient lived before, the virus was found in the pillow core of the room, and after speculation, someone should have injected it into the pillow core with a syringe."

I said: "Do you suspect that old man Dou is going to deal with tofu?"

Gu Wenmin said: "This is just my intuition. It takes two days to transfer to another hospital. During this time, you'd better check it out. Only by finding the source can you get twice the result with half the effort." After hanging up the phone, I asked Cyclops to close the store I went to the hospital to guard, and drove back to the villa by myself, but when I rushed upstairs, I found that the whole room had been cleaned up by Aunt Hu.

Now I have already suspected that I fell in love with old man Dou, and even wondered whether this old woman surnamed Hu was the culprit instructed by old man Dou. Seeing that she destroyed the clues in the whole room, I couldn't help being furious.

Seeing that my complexion was not good, she was also very frightened, and said, "Mr. Chen, what's wrong with you? Why are you back? How is Mr. Dou's illness?"

I sneered, and said, "Stop pretending, if you don't make it clear today, I'll make you look good and say, did old man Dou instigate you? Did you poison him!"

Aunt Hu was taken aback for a moment, and then shouted: "I am wronged, what are you talking about? I will work for you and earn money in peace and contentment. Why do I have nothing to do with poisoning people? Besides, where am I going to get poison!"

If at the beginning, the talk about poisoning was just a guess, then after all this deliberation, I have almost confirmed that the tofu was harmed by someone. I don’t feel soft-hearted when I see this person crying. Either way, I will regret it.So I said, "Then tell me, why do people get sick as soon as they move in? If you don't give me a reasonable explanation..." I approached her step by step.

She said in horror: "You, don't act recklessly, beating someone is against the law!"

I said, "Breaking the law? Isn't it just losing money? Even if you are disabled, I can afford it."

She immediately became angry, changed her expression of fear, and scolded: "You bastards who have money and have no conscience, you are great if you have a few stinky money, don't treat us as human beings, you will sooner or later Retribution!"

I looked at her angry face and said calmly: "Auntie, you are wrong. I never despise anyone around me, because someone told me that the value of life is not measured by money and rights, and every effort to live Life is great, do you know who told me this sentence? It is the person who is about to die of illness! Let me tell you, I have done many bad things, but I have never done a thing that is unkind and bullying others. But Today I want to make an exception, because what you are hurting now is my brother, the brother who is willing to stab me. I will give you one last chance, otherwise, I will be that bastard today, and I will do what I say. "
