Chapter 293 Calculation
With a "click," the dark morgue was suddenly illuminated.
They dared to turn on the lights, so they must be hospital staff, not outsiders sneaking in.
The morgue was very cold and damp. Xia Lan was wearing very little clothing, and her fingers were a little numb with cold. She tried her best to keep herself from falling.
The older man directed the other two to carry Zhou Ziyin into the freezer: "Put her in freezer number two."
"Come back in five days." The older man gave another instruction: "Deliver it to the address by the lake behind this school."
Xia Lan listened carefully and heard the sound of paper rubbing together, as if some plastic wrap had been torn open. There were several sheets of paper, not just one.
"Yes," they replied emotionlessly.
"See these items in the photo? Go find them all, then throw them into the lake along with the body."
"Yes." His reply was as cold as a robot's. It seemed he'd been doing this dirty work for more than just a day or two.
Listening to the conversation between the three, Xia Lan's mind was also in turmoil.
But why wait three days? Is freezing for three days to obscure the time of death?
Zhou Ziyin was only missing for a day, less than 24 hours, but she was already dead when she was found at the hospital.
I don't know if Zhou Boming took her away and killed her last night, or if she was murdered during the day today. This matter must be hiding a big secret.
After finishing their tasks, the group turned off the lights and prepared to leave.
Xia Lan was pondering how to escape after closing the door when her thoughts were suddenly interrupted by a blinding white light.
It turned out to be a phone call. Although she had silenced it beforehand, the phone screen would still light up when a call came in.
In the pitch-black morgue, it was extremely conspicuous. As the three were closing the door on the outside, they saw a hospital bed inside light up.
"Who's there!" The older man, having seen the world, didn't freeze like the other two young men. Instead, he reacted quickly: "Grab her!"
Xia Lan rolled sideways and flew out from under the bed, landing steadily with a perfect bending posture.
Upon seeing this, two young men immediately rushed forward to grab her.
After a brief two-second simulation, Xia Lan dodged the two men's attacks, charged straight at the door where only an old man was standing, kicked him, and then leaped out of the morgue.
Soon, two young men pulled out batons from their waists and gave chase.
Several figures passed by in the stairwell one after another, but they didn't notice that someone was hiding there.
It was Shen Tong, who was holding her phone and constantly dialing Xia Lan's number.
At this moment, she was coldly watching those people chase after Xia Lan.
Actually, when Xia Lan was pushed out of the ward while hiding under the bed, she happened to arrive. After entering the ward, she found nothing inside and guessed where Xia Lan was hiding.
So she followed them all the way to the morgue, and just now, she deliberately made a phone call to let Xia Lan be discovered.
Seeing that they had all run far away, Shen Tong emerged from his hiding place and sneaked into the morgue. They hadn't had time to close the door while chasing after Xia Lan.
Shen Tong swaggered over, turned on the morgue lights, found Zhou Ziyin's body, took a picture, put it in a body bag, and moved it onto the gurney.
They stole the corpse so easily.
After leaving the hospital, Shen Tong successfully tossed Zhou Ziyin into the trunk and then called Lu He: "Hey, I made a mistake earlier, it wasn't West China Hospital, it was Huaren Hospital, sorry..."
Then another phone call came in: "Are you busy right now? I've found Zhou Ziyin, but I need to conduct a private autopsy, and I need your help. Um, we're not going through the proper channels, so it's a bit complicated..."
Then he hung up the phone and left.
