Gentle Sleep Instructor
Chapter 499 Ambush
"That's right." Huai Yi exhaled, looking at her as he replied, "I can't figure it out either."
Indeed.
News of children being attacked by dogs was relatively common, but for it to be fatal... in Huai Yi's experience, it was extremely rare.
What's more, such a low-probability event had happened to Xiang Nan twice.
If there wasn't something wrong with that, it was too far-fetched.
And what was even stranger was that both of Xiang Nan's husbands had committed suicide.
The difference was that the first husband merely committed suicide, while the second husband, Yin Zhenliang, committed suicide after killing Xiang Nan.
Both chose the same method of death: jumping from a building.
Was there a connection between them?
If a child had been killed by stray dogs, according to normal logic, the parents would definitely be vigilant, even blaming themselves for the child's death, resulting in serious aftereffects.
How could it happen a second time?
It didn't make sense.
Unless... Lin Wan'er frowned, this was all calculated.
All within Xiang Nan's expectations.
"You thought of it too, didn't you?" Huai Yi looked at Lin Wan'er with a slightly conflicted expression, it seemed his guess was the same as hers.
Perhaps in this imprisonment case, the role played by Xiang Nan wasn't as simple as they had initially thought, a mere victim.
After a moment of thought, Lin Wan'er raised her head and said in a low voice, "Perhaps Yin Zhenliang wasn't wrong. Xiang Nan really has mental problems, so he used his connections to imprison her in this hospital."
"The deaths of both children are related to Xiang Nan."
"Yin Zhenliang isn't the problem. Those so-called stories about cheating on rich women are just unfounded rumors, figments of the imagination of those who don't know the truth."
"The so-called strong desire to control the children and Xiang Nan, hiring a nanny to monitor them, was actually to prevent Xiang Nan from harming the children."
Near the villa, the old man in the wheelchair had mentioned seeing scars on Yin Zhenliang and Xiang Nan's child.
Now it seemed that the person who left those scars was likely not Yin Zhenliang, but the psychologically twisted Xiang Nan.
"Yin Zhenliang discovered the other side hidden beneath Xiang Nan's appearance, and also learned the truth about the child's death through investigation."
"The fact that he sent her to the hospital for treatment instead of directly to the police station already shows that he still had real feelings for Xiang Nan, otherwise..."
Lin Wan'er didn't finish her sentence, because it wasn't necessary.
"I've considered this issue too." Huai Yi said quickly, "But there's one thing I can't figure out. Since Yin Zhenliang had already chosen to send Xiang Nan to the hospital and keep her under surveillance in the ward, why did he still rush over to kill her?"
"If he had wanted to kill her from the beginning, there would have been no need to send her to the hospital at all."
"Wouldn't that be redundant?"
Huai Yi's words were strongly suggestive. If their assumptions were generally correct, then something must have stimulated Yin Zhenliang, causing him to rush to the hospital to commit the crime.
"It's because Yin Zhenliang learned that Xiang Nan was pregnant," Lin Wan'er said without hesitation.
That's right.
That should be it.
Huai Yi nodded and said, "From the clues I've gathered so far, this Xiang Nan, at least in the eyes of others, is a beautiful and gentle woman."
"Being able to send such a person to the hospital must have required the help of someone on the inside."
"Zhang Zhaowei would be suitable," Lin Wan'er said, raising her eyes.
"That's right, and I've also investigated that this Zhang Zhaowei and Yin Zhenliang knew each other a long time ago." Huai Yi introduced, "Their relationship wasn't particularly close, but in the period before Xiang Nan was sent to the hospital, the two of them suddenly started contacting each other frequently."
Hearing this, the look in Lin Wan'er's eyes changed slightly as she looked at Huai Yi.
This kind of specific information... how did he get it in such a short period of time?
Lin Wan'er had been wandering in the gray areas between the city's black and white for many years, and her sensitivity to information was far beyond that of ordinary people.
She knew very well how difficult it was to obtain such specific information.
Seeming to see the doubt in Lin Wan'er's eyes, Huai Yi gave a very helpless smile, exhaled, and said, "Miss Lin, I know you doubt the source of my information, but please believe me, every word I say is true."
He slowly lifted the hem of his clothes. Lin Wan'er saw that his abdomen was wrapped in a thick layer of gauze, and some of it was already stained red with blood.
The bandaging technique was crude, using cheap, wide transparent tape to wrap it a few times at random to fix the gauze, like packing a parcel.
Huai Yi tore off a circle of tape and uncovered the gauze. Inside were three bloody wounds, almost tearing his abdomen open.
The wounds were neatly arranged, as if scratched by a beast like a lion or tiger.
But there couldn't be any beasts here.
Only ghosts.
"When I was collecting clues, a ghost disguised as a police officer attacked me." Huai Yi couldn't help but say with some lingering fear, "Fortunately, I saw through it at the last moment."
No wonder when Lin Wan'er first saw Huai Yi, she felt that he was pale and his breathing was erratic. It turned out he was injured.
"So you came here to find evidence of the connection between Yin Zhenliang and Zhang Zhaowei?" Lin Wan'er asked.
"Yes." Huai Yi nodded seriously and continued, "There is another point that can corroborate that our guess is not unfounded."
"Xiang Nan's attitude towards the medical staff and everyone else in the hospital that she could come into contact with."
"Most of the time, her mental state is very stable." Huai Yi had noticed that Zheng Xiazi's impression of Xiang Nan was quite good in his memories.
"Just imagine, if she really was a woman who had suffered so much, then her mental state would definitely not be like this."
Since they didn't find the evidence they were looking for, Lin Wan'er led Huai Yi away. Jiang Cheng and the other three were still trapped on the first basement level.
Walking along the corridor, they heard some strange sounds.
The sound wasn't loud, but in the silent corridor, it was quickly noticed.
"What's that sound?" Huai Yi looked a little nervous, looking around, searching for the source of the sound.
It was a very, very light rubbing sound.
Listening to it for a long time actually gave people a strange feeling.
But soon, the sound disappeared.
Lin Wan'er stopped and looked at the ward beside her. Huai Yi walked over and followed her gaze, seeing a sign on the ward door with the number 906.
This was Ward 906.
The one Jiang Cheng had mentioned.
It was said that a crazy nurse was locked up inside, and had been for over 10 years.
Huai Yi stared at the door, then turned his gaze to Lin Wan'er and asked in a low voice, "Was that sound coming from this door just now?"
Unexpectedly, Lin Wan'er shook her head after only a moment. "I don't know, but..." She looked at the door and said in a low voice, "Someone just opened this door."
