Chapter 1131 I Almost Believed It

"Don't try to scare me!"

"This is Hua Xia's capital. If you kill me, you won't be able to escape either!"

Despite her fear, the female nurse tried her best to remain calm and said, bracing herself.

She knew that the weaker she acted in this situation, the more unimaginable the consequences would be.

"I'm not trying to scare you!"

"The hospital previously ordered that no medical staff are allowed to enter the room. You should know that, right?"

"Now that you've broken the rules and tested their physical condition, based on this alone, I can conclude that you are involved with the real culprit, and I can eliminate you!"

Ye Cangtian glanced at the female nurse and said indifferently.

In fact, he had intended to apprehend her directly just moments ago, but later gave up the idea.

However, he knew that this female nurse was not the real culprit.

If she were the real culprit, she would certainly not come in person with so many people guarding outside.

And based on the female nurse's actions since entering, Ye Cangtian could basically conclude that she was a naive fool who had been deceived.

"This..."

Those simple two sentences completely stunned the female nurse.

She could see that the other party was not lying, and it was precisely because of this that she was scared!

She never expected that simply checking on two injured people would put her life in danger.

"Alright, let's start with introductions."

Ye Cangtian's voice came again.

The female nurse became much more honest. She looked at Ye Cangtian and replied, "I... I'm an intern nurse here, Yu Dan."

Upon hearing this, Ye Cangtian directly asked, "Yu Dan, tell me, why did you come here!"

"It was Chief Physician Dr. Chen. He told me to check on the condition of the patients here and then report back to him..."

Yu Dan recounted the situation truthfully.

"You came just because Dr. Chen told you to, didn't you receive the hospital's notice?"

"I did."

"But Dr. Chen said that after this matter, he would introduce me to a private hospital with better benefits, and the salary would be more than three times here, so I agreed."

Seeing that Ye Cangtian didn't believe her, Yu Dan quickly told him everything.

She was an intern nurse, and her performance during the internship was not good, nor did she gain recognition from her superiors.

Therefore, she would basically leave the hospital after her internship ended.

So, as soon as she heard about the opportunity to go to a private hospital with excellent salary and benefits, she agreed without a second thought.

Hmm?

Listening to Yu Dan's explanation, Ye Cangtian's eyes darted around, and then he looked at Xu Shi'an and said, "Please invite this Dr. Chen over."

Upon hearing this, Xu Shi'an left the room without a word.

Seeing this, Yu Dan quickly said, "I've told you everything, can I go now?"

She was genuinely worried that Ye Cangtian might do something to her and just wanted to get away as far as possible.

Heh heh.

Ye Cangtian smiled faintly and said, "Little girl, it's not so easy for you to leave now. Just stay put by the side. I will let you go when it's time."

Yu Dan was unwilling to give up and quickly said, "Why? I didn't do anything, why are you detaining me!"

Hearing this, Ye Cangtian's smile became even brighter, and he chuckled, "I am from China's security department. Do you still think you've done nothing now?"

With that one sentence, Yu Dan was rendered speechless.

She finally understood everything. The other party was from China's security department, which was why they could order the hospital to issue the notice.

And her intruding into the room guarded by them was itself a mistake, possibly affecting some of their actions.

In this case, let alone her not being able to leave, it was normal for them to kill her now, just as he said.

Thinking of this, Yu Dan immediately became quiet and stood trembling to the side.

On the other side, Xu Shi'an was very efficient and brought Dr. Chen to Ye Cangtian's side not long after.

However, upon entering the room, he secretly glanced at the condition of Nancy and Gui Wu before standing in front of Ye Cangtian.

"Who are you? Why did you bring me here? Do you have any respect for the law!"

Dr. Chen was still quite tough and was the first to question Ye Cangtian.

"Who I am is not important. What's important is who told you to inquire about their news?"

According to Ye Cangtian's perception, Dr. Chen in front of him was just an ordinary person.

In that case, Dr. Chen could not possibly have harmed Gui Wu and Nancy; there must have been someone behind him instructing him.

"What are you talking about? I don't understand!"

As he spoke, Dr. Chen glanced at Yu Dan, who was standing to the side, and then said, "I asked her to come and check on their condition entirely out of a doctor's duty!"

"Hmm? Didn't you know about the hospital's notice?" Ye Cangtian asked doubtfully.

Hearing this, Dr. Chen snorted lightly and said, "I don't care about any notices. I only know that they are my patients, and as their attending physician, I have to be responsible for them until the end!"

*Slap! Slap!*

Ye Cangtian clapped his hands upon hearing this.

He smiled and looked at Dr. Chen, mockingly saying, "Well said, 'responsible until the end.' I almost believed you."

Then, his expression turned cold, "After you left the ward earlier, you had already determined they were dead, and the hospital subsequently announced their deaths. Since they are dead, why are you still coming to see them!"

This...

With that one sentence, Dr. Chen immediately became nervous and didn't know how to explain.

Should he say he went to the morgue and didn't see the bodies of the two women, hence he came back to investigate?

Obviously, that was impossible!

After all, the news of their deaths was announced by the hospital, which carried absolute authority.

Under such circumstances, how could he go to the morgue? This was simply unexplainable!

"Alright, stop acting in front of me. Tell me your mastermind!"

"Perhaps if you confess, I can let you go!"

Seeing that Dr. Chen was speechless, Ye Cangtian wasted no more words and spoke directly.

*Thump!*

As soon as Ye Cangtian's voice finished, Dr. Chen directly knelt on the ground.

From the moment he agreed to the action, he had already anticipated the risk of being caught and exposed at any time, yet he couldn't refuse the execution.

Now that he had been caught, he could only choose to confess, and perhaps by doing so, he could save his wife and child.

So he quickly said, "Mr. Ye, I'm just an ordinary doctor in the hospital. I have no intention of harming them. Everything I did was forced!"

"Don't be nervous, tell me everything."

Ye Cangtian helped him up, lit a cigarette, and waited for him to confess.

"Mr. Ye, to be honest, my wife and children were kidnapped by Yale and Carmen. They gave me a poison and told me to inject it into Nancy and Gui Wu's bodies."

"This poison was formulated by Yale himself. He said that no signs of poisoning could be detected, only that it would constantly consume their life force until they died from exhaustion..."

Dr. Chen explained the reasons why he was forced and all that he knew.

Ye Cangtian stared at Dr. Chen for a long time, and seeing that the man did not seem to be lying, he then said, "So, checking their condition was also at the behest of Yale and Carmen?"

Upon hearing this, Dr. Chen nodded repeatedly and said, "That's right, it was them. They said this was the last thing they wanted me to do. As long as I reported their condition back to them, they would release my wife and children."

"Alright, it's a matter of life and death. You can report back now."

"I assume you know what to say?"

Ye Cangtian heard this and said directly.

He wanted to release the information so that the other party would try their best to come and kill Nancy and the other woman.

"Understood, understood."

Dr. Chen quickly responded and then took out his phone without hesitation, dialing Yale.

He didn't know what Ye Cangtian was trying to do, and that wasn't important to him.

What was important was that after making this call, they would release his wife and children, and he would no longer be coerced by them.

"Hello, Dr. Chen, you finally called. You've made us wait quite a bit!"

"Tell me, how is the information you were asked to gather?"
