Chapter 136 - 136 Nurse
136 Nurse
“I’ll go with you. Today is my day off and I have nothing to do anyway.” Yin Tao still couldn’t let go of this case. As she calculated the time, she felt that the next victim was about to appear.
Feng Jing went together with Yin Tao to the Third Mental Health Central Hospital and saw the nurse who had helped them last time at the reception desk.
“It’s you again. Are you here today to interrogate Xue Na again?” The nurse was a little curious about Xue Na. She didn’t understand why a mentally ill person would repeatedly be involved with the police.
“Yes, how is she now?” Feng Jing’s tone was calm but authoritative.
“She’s alright, but it’s best not to let her see this police officer again.” The nurse pointed at Yin Tao. Xue Na acted up the last time because of Yin Tao.
Yin Tao lowered her head awkwardly. She didn’t help Feng Jing much and seemed to have caused him a lot of trouble instead.
The nurse thought that Yin Tao had misunderstood her words and hurriedly explained, “I’m sorry, please don’t take this the wrong way. Actually, Xue Na reacted so strongly to you mainly because you’re too beautiful.”
If it was in the past, Yin Tao might have thought that the nurse was deliberately trying to cheer her up. However, with Xue Na’s symptoms, it was very likely that the cause of her illness was really someone else’s appearance.
“Have you had similar situations in the past?” Feng Jing got the nurse’s message.
“To tell you the truth, the nurse who took care of Xue Na in the past was the prettiest nurse in our hospital.” The nurse deliberately lowered her voice, as if she didn’t want the people around her to hear. “When she took care of Xue Na, it always triggered her illness. We didn’t know until she was fired.”
Yin Tao and Feng Jing perked up when they heard what the nurse said.
“Can you tell us why that nurse was fired?” Yin Tao had just asked when she noticed that the nurse was a little hesitant.
“We’re investigating all the clues related to Xue Na. We hope you can cooperate.” Feng Jing felt that this nurse should know something.
“Come to the lounge with me.”
It was obvious that the nurse had brought Yin Tao and Feng Jing to a separate lounge because there were too many people in the hall.
“Maybe that nurse did something to hurt Xue Na because she was always acting up with her.”
Yin Tao and Feng Jing exchanged a glance and continued listening to the nurse.
“She increased the dosage of Xue Na’s sedative and also gave her a tranquilizer. A normal dose of the sedative is good for the patient’s recovery and can help them sleep better and stabilize their moods. However, if taken in excess, the patient will develop a tolerance to the drug. A mild addiction will retard the brain, and a severe one can be life-threatening.”
“May I ask the nurse’s name?” Yin Tao suddenly had a strong premonition.
“Li Ting, but I’m not familiar with her.” The nurse’s answer was enough to shock Yin Tao.
“Is this the person in the photo?” Feng Jing took out the photo of the victim, Li Ting, and handed it to the nurse.
“Yes, it’s her. She’s quite pretty,” the nurse replied firmly. “I think she settled with Xue Na’s family in the end. She didn’t use a large dose, and the impact wasn’t serious, but she still lost her job because of this.”
“Have you contacted her after she left the hospital?” Feng Jing put away his cell phone and continued to ask the nurse.
“No, I’m not close to her.” The nurse shook her head and added, “Li Ting didn’t really fit in. Perhaps it’s because she was beautiful and didn’t like us.”
Yin Tao noticed the nurse’s obvious dissatisfaction with Li Ting and realized that Li Ting was probably not very friendly.
“Is the family member who reconciled with Li Ting Xue Na’s husband?” Feng Jing looked into the nurse’s eyes to judge the authenticity of her words.
“I think so. I don’t know much about it, but Xue Na’s husband applied for a visit today. You can ask him later.”
Hearing that Meng Heng might come later, Feng Jing and Yin Tao became vigilant.
Now that they had met Meng Heng at the aesthetics hospital, they must not have direct contact with him here.
“There should be surveillance cameras in Xue Na’s ward, right?” Yin Tao asked the nurse, but she realized that the other party was in a difficult position.
“Yes, but the hospital has a strict rule that other than the attending doctor, no one else has the right to check.” The nurse sized up Feng Jing and Yin Tao and asked, “Is Xue Na considered a suspect? Do you have the right to examine her?”
