Rebirth of 1985’s Best Doctor - Chapter 43

Xu Tiansheng left Su Jinyue some instructions before leaving the clinic. He planned to go to the county to ask about Song Yiren.

Along the way, the villagers could be seen gathering in groups to discuss Song Yiren’s arrest.

A villager noticed Xu Tiansheng who was passing by and said, “It’s Dr. Xu.”

The villagers immediately surrounded Xu Tiansheng.

“Dr. Xu, where are you going?”

“You’re not going to the county to visit Dr. Song, are you?”

“Contract killing is a serious crime. She will be shot to death. It would be futile for you to go.”

“I didn’t expect Dr. Song to do such a thing. You really can’t judge a book by its cover.”

“That’s right. Dr. Song usually seems quite nice and is always smiling at people.” The villagers spoke one after another, their tone carrying a hint of pity and regret.

Xu Tiansheng felt a dull ache in his heart. Ever since he found out that Yiren had gotten into trouble, he felt as if a huge stone was weighing on his heart, making it hard for him to breathe. Now that he heard the villagers’ words, he felt even worse.

“Don’t say anymore.” Xu Tiansheng held his chest, his face turning even paler. No matter how bad she was, he had watched her grow up. How could he ignore her?

“Dr. Xu, don’t be angry. Dr. Song is unreliable but you still have Dr. Su.”

“Dr. Xu, are you feeling unwell? Go back and rest. Don’t worry about Dr. Song.”

“Yes, you have to take care of yourself.” They were all very respectful towards Dr. Xu. All these years, Dr. Xu had done many good deeds for the villagers of Shangxin Village. Especially in the past few years, when the villagers went to see Dr. Xu, he would not charge them any money. Even if he did, he would only charge them the capital cost.

At first, Zhan Yiping didn’t quite believe the story about Song Yiren, but after a round of questioning, she was certain that Song Yiren had really been taken to the police station. When she saw Xu Tiansheng surrounded by villagers, she walked over curiously.

Xu Tiansheng let out a long sigh and shook his head. “I have to make a trip to the county.” He would be worried if he didn’t go.

“How can you go like this?”

“Even if you really want to go, you have to find someone to go with you. I’ll call Dr. Su over.”

“Uncle Xu, I’ll go with you,” Zhan Yiping said as she walked up to him. She wanted to see Song Yiren and find out if she had really hired an assassin to kill someone. If not, she would call her brother when he arrived at the camp to see if he could get her out.

“That’s right. Yiping is familiar with the county. Let Yiping accompany you,” a villager immediately chimed in and said.

“That’s right!” They were worried about Dr. Xu going alone.

Xu Tiansheng looked at Zhan Yiping and nodded. “Let’s go.” He wished he had a pair of wings so that he could fly to the county faster.

In the dark cell, the air was musty and humid, mixed with a horrible stench.

Song Yiren sat in a corner with her arms wrapped around her knees. She looked fearfully at the people laughing not far away. She had just been locked up yesterday, yet these people had already beat her up indiscriminately.

Last night, they didn’t even let her sleep on the bed. If she wanted to sleep, she could only sleep in this corner. Smelling the revolting smell from the toilet bowl, she vomited a few times in one night. Now, she felt weak and dizzy, and the places that they hit hurt even more.

The more Song Yiren thought about it, the more aggrieved she felt. Her tears fell silently. If she was going to be locked up here and lead such a life, she might as well die.

The group stopped laughing. One of the taller women, who was tanned and plump, stood up and walked over to Song Yiren. She bent down and pinched her chin. “Why are you crying? Do you want the prison guards to know that we bullied you?”

“No… I didn’t… I really didn’t mean…” Song Yiren shook her head, her eyes filled with fear. She was really afraid that they would beat her up again.

Slap! The fat woman slapped Song Yiren.

“I think you are doing just that.” As she spoke, she slapped Song Yiren again. Needless to say, she was deliberately causing trouble for Song Yiren. Although they would usually teach the newbies a lesson, they wouldn’t be so ruthless.

Before Song Yiren was imprisoned the day before, they had received orders from the higher-ups to take good care of her. After being imprisoned for so many years, how could they not understand the meaning of taking good care of her? Song Yiren only had herself to blame for offending someone she shouldn’t have.

“Please don’t hit me. I was wrong…” Song Yiyi begged as she cried.

Another tall and thin woman walked over. She grabbed Song Yiren’s hair, and slammed her head against the wall. “Don’t act so pitiful in front of us. You’re an eyesore.” As long as they didn’t beat Song Yiren to death, the higher-ups wouldn’t look for them.

Thud! Song Yiren’s head was slammed against the wall, and she felt her vision turn black as the world spun around her.

The lanky woman kicked Song Yiren when she saw her limp on the ground. “Don’t play dead. Get up!”

When the dizziness subsided, Song Yiren slowly got up from the ground. She didn’t dare to disobey them, or else she would be beaten up again.

“Ptui!” The woman spat on Song Yiren’s face and smiled coldly. “I’m telling you, no matter who you are outside, we have the final say in here. If we want to hit you, you can only bear it. Don’t try anything funny or you’ll suffer.”

“I know… I won’t dare…” Song Yiren sniffed hard and held back her tears. At that moment, she regretted using the bamboo flute to summon the man in black. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have ended up like this. All of this was because of Su Jinyue. If it weren’t for Su Jinyue, she wouldn’t have gone to recruit the men in black. If there was a day when she could leave, she definitely wouldn’t let Su Jinyue off. At most, she would take her down together with her.

Zhan Yiping and Xu Tiansheng arrived at the police station. Zhan Yiping pulled a young policeman over and said, “Comrade, I’m looking for Superintendent Yang Tao. He’s a good friend of my elder brother.” On the way here, she recalled the relationship between Yang Tao and her elder brother. Perhaps Yang Tao could let them meet Song Yiren.

The young policeman sized up Zhan Yiping. “Wait a moment.”

“Okay!” Zhan Yiping nodded.

After the young policeman left, Xu Tiansheng asked, “Yiping, is the Superintendent here really your brother’s friend?” If the other party was willing to help, he might really be able to meet Yiren.

Zhan Yiping smiled and nodded. “Uncle Xu, don’t worry. Big Brother Yang will definitely help us.” She could tell that Big Brother Yang had a good relationship with her Big Brother.

“That’s great!” Xu Tiansheng heaved a sigh of relief.. It was the right decision to let Yiping come along.
