Chapter 64 Brother, you must stand up for me!
Chapter 64 Brother, you must stand up for me!
Looking at Qi Min, who was still feigning weakness in front of Ling Huiyao, Ling Yi couldn't help but wonder if Qi Min really trusted him that much...
Qi Min, who was still playing the victim for Ling Huiyao on the hospital bed, did not notice the complex emotions softening in Ling Yi beside him.
“Brother… cough cough, you don’t know, I was invited by Meng Jun to participate the day before yesterday… and then… brother, your father is the chairman, you must help me get justice… cough cough.”
Qi Min weakly recounted the gist of the matter to Ling Huiyao, then began to play the victim again, begging Ling Huiyao for help.
He seemed oblivious to the hospital-style pillow that Ling Huiyao was using behind his back, as if he were completely absorbed in the unfair treatment he had suffered.
His weak and powerless appearance made Ling Huiyao too embarrassed to ask him for the game pod again.
That's right, the reason Ling Huiyao called was because he was about to be discharged from the hospital.
However, they hadn't received any notification from the installers yet, which seemed odd, so they called Qi Min to inquire.
But to my surprise, Qi Min was in an even worse state than me, with such a large bandage on his shoulder.
Ling Huiyao couldn't help but begin to believe that Meng Jun might have been responsible for his injuries.
After his father left, while he was recuperating alone in the hospital, he thought about it carefully and did have some doubts about Meng Jun.
The insect that attacked him didn't say a word, seemingly just venting its anger on him, which led him to suspect it might be a male insect predator.
But now that I think about it, the reason why my injuries were lighter than Qi Min's was probably because his father was the president of the Male Insect Association.
"Brother...did you hear what I was saying?"
Qi Min's questioning voice came from the communication screen, interrupting Ling Huiyao's thoughts.
"Huh? Oh right! He's really gone too far. He dared to attack you, a male insect, so what wouldn't he dare to do..."
"Um, your situation is too complicated. I'll definitely talk to my father about it, don't worry. I have other things to do, I'll hang up now!"
Ling Huiyao hung up the call as soon as he finished speaking, and the next second he dialed Ling Zhenhao's number, briefly telling Ling Zhenhao about his guesses and Qi Min's situation.
The more Ling Huiyao explained, the more convinced he became of it. Ling Zhenhao listened to his son's speculation and looked at the newly released investigation report on the table.
They also began to believe that Ling Huiyao's whipping was very likely Meng Jun's revenge.
Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence that Ling Huiyao's injuries had just healed and he hadn't even been discharged from the hospital yet, while Qi Min was also invited by Meng Jun and hospitalized with serious injuries?
It would be unreasonable to say that Meng Jun's actions weren't revenge against Ling Yi, and Ling Zhenhao had also heard rumors about Meng Jun's narrow-mindedness.
Thinking of this, Ling Zhenhao told Ling Huiyao to take good care of his injuries, and said he would handle the matter.
He said he would definitely get justice for Ling Huiyao, and then hung up the call to the head of the investigation department.
In the ward, Qi Min was completely bewildered when the phone was suddenly hung up on. He had only smeared Meng Jun and played the victim a few times.
Ling Huiyao suddenly looked deep in thought, seemingly pondering something. After being reminded, he rambled on for a while and then hung up.
No, why is Ling Huiyao calling?
Qi Min looked at the disconnected personal terminal with a puzzled expression, then turned to look at Ling Yi beside him, who was equally puzzled.
"Tuk Tuk"
Just as the two were completely bewildered, the ward was being knocked on rhythmically.
Qi Min said "Please come in," and then the two female soldiers who had left the night before pushed open the door and entered. Unlike before, Liu Jin followed them in.
The two female soldiers first greeted Ling Yi and Qi Min, then explained their purpose.
Several more male insects woke up today. They came for routine questioning, and they just finished asking them questions. Now they need to confirm some things with Qi Min.
Liu Jin had come to check on Qi Min's recovery and happened to run into him on the way, so they came together.
The two female soldiers said they would let the doctor examine them first, and they would ask questions later.
Seeing their serious expressions, which were different from when they left yesterday, Qi Min guessed what was going on. He said "Thank you for your hard work" and then helped Liu Jin sit up so that he could check his injuries.
Ling Yi also sensed something was wrong, but he belonged to the military, and besides, he was the queen of the male insect involved.
Not wanting to pry too much into the investigation department's affairs openly, he could only silently watch Liu Jin's inspection and wait for things to develop.
"The recovery is going well, but you still need to avoid strenuous activity to prevent the wound from worsening. I'll leave now if you have any further questions. Please call me anytime if needed."
After checking the wound, Liu Jin glanced at the female soldier beside him, gave Ling Yi some instructions, and turned to leave. But then Qi Min suddenly spoke up.
"Ling Yi... cough cough, go see the doctor off, and go for a walk while you're at it. It's getting boring staying here with me all this time."
It'll be noon soon. When you come back, could you please bring some lunch with you?
"Ahem... Two female soldiers came to me to ask about some things, so I'll talk to them."
Qi Min weakly gestured to Ling Yi, who was standing to the side, asking him to leave for a moment.
The two female soldiers beside him exchanged a glance, their expressions relaxing slightly, seemingly surprised by Qi Min's cooperation.
With Ling Yi here, some of their questioning methods are indeed not very effective.
Although both of them had a good impression of Qi Min, personal matters are personal matters and public matters are public matters; it was their duty.
They also have to follow rules and regulations; they cannot be confused with each other.
Upon hearing Qi Min's words, Ling Yi looked up and gave Qi Min a deep look, noticing his pale and somewhat weak complexion.
However, his eyes remained calm. Ling Yi lowered his gaze to hide the worry in his eyes, nodded in agreement, and then told Liu Jin, who was watching from the side, that he would go out with him.
After Ling Yi and Liu Jin left, Kong Fei, the female soldier with the more rugged appearance among the two, was prompted by her colleague Fu Wen to...
He turned around and gave an explanation to the female guard at the door before returning to Fu Wen's side. They sat down together on a chair by the hospital bed and began questioning.
"Your Excellency Qi Min, we are here today to confirm with you whether there was anything you concealed or that was untrue in your previous testimony."
Kong Fei spoke first, staring intently into Qi Min's eyes, his gaze sharp.
Fu Wen, standing to the side, was also observing Qi Min's face and expression. Although his attitude was not as serious as Kong Fei's, his eyes also held a look of observation and scrutiny.
Qi Min could tell from their contrasting personalities that they were old partners, one scholarly and the other martial.
"I...I don't understand what you mean..."
Qi Min seemed startled, lowered his head to avoid Kong Fei's gaze, his eyes darting around, and answered in a low, stammering voice.
Her complexion, which had not yet recovered, was pale and weak, and she also seemed a little guilty.
"Do you know what punishment you will receive for concealing the truth, deceiving the investigation team's questions, and providing false testimony?"
