Chapter 319: Chapter 319 Just a Guess
"Oh, there’s no need for such trouble, just come over to our place, and I should really cook a meal for you to properly express my gratitude."
When she said this, Liu Zheng immediately raised his hand and waved.
"Alright, alright, I get it, but you really don’t need to thank me that much. After all, I did charge you for the medical services. I’m a doctor, and that’s just part of my job."
"Besides, there’s always another time to treat me to a meal. It’s just that this time I really want to get some clues from what everyone says, so just follow my lead, okay?"
Since he had put it that way, the person in front of him couldn’t possibly refuse.
So the woman in front of him nodded gently.
"Alright then, that really puts Liu Mister at some expense."
"It’s no big deal, the money isn’t much. If it can solve the problem, that’s what matters most."
To him, the money truly wasn’t a big deal.
Although he mentioned several friends, they were all just kids, and their appetites couldn’t be that big.
So there wasn’t anything to worry about.
"The main reason is that recently, due to this issue, the villagers have been uneasy, and I hope it can be resolved quickly."
On top of that, I might be leaving with Liu Jiaxin for a while soon.
In the time I’m away, I don’t want similar incidents to happen in the village.
Otherwise, I’d really be at my wit’s end.
Seeing how Liu Zheng, as a doctor, could care so much about his neighbors and everyone, the woman instantly smiled and said.
"My, Doctor Liu, you are truly wonderful."
"Okay, okay, no more compliments, let’s just set it at Yong’an diner, and when the time comes, you can come find me directly."
After hearing this, how could the child not know what to do?
He immediately nodded.
And soon, after things that needed to be done were almost done, he couldn’t stay here forever.
There were still many issues he needed to address.
So after giving several instructions, he finally prepared to leave.
Unexpectedly, just as he returned to the clinic,
a person hurried over.
Not only that,
but he also looked very destitute.
And he appeared to be dressed in ragged clothes.
He seemed more like a beggar.
Shabby and disheveled.
As if he hadn’t bathed for many days.
His hair was a mess, resembling a bird’s nest.
When he rushed over, Liu Zheng indeed felt quite surprised.
Not recognizing who this person was, he certainly wasn’t from the village because he had never seen him before.
Only to see the man rush towards Liu Zheng’s direction, stopping at the doorway and shouting.
"Disaster! Disaster! Ha-ha! Hahaha!"
After laughing a few times, he mysteriously left.
Watching him behave like this also made Liu Zheng feel a bit puzzled.
He had no idea what it all meant.
What’s going on with him out of the blue?
Probably a madman.
Liu Zheng didn’t pay much heed and simply shut the door.
Fortunately, the hard work from the past couple of days had paid off.
Almost everyone had mostly recovered.
Consequently, fewer people were visiting his clinic.
But he wasn’t idling either and was busy concocting his latest pills.
After all, he might be leaving in a couple of days, and he wouldn’t have a place to do his research then.
Just like that, he could take this opportunity to catch up on everything that was pending.
After he had been busy for quite a while, he finally prepared to take a good rest.
But he had never expected that at this moment,
a very noisy sound suddenly came from not far away.
Hearing such a noise indeed made him feel a bit strange, wondering what on earth had happened for things to be so unsettled.
Quickly, he immediately opened the door, ready to go out and have a good look.
He discovered that the commotion was at the entrance of the village.
A large crowd had gathered there.
Everyone was talking at once about something.
And at this moment, he immediately ran towards that direction, wanting to see what exactly was going on.
Recently, he always felt that something was not quite right.
Mainly because such big incidents rarely happened in the village on normal days.
But recently, there had always been some inexplicable events occurring.
It also gave him a headache.
He kept feeling like all this couldn’t be that simple.
If no one was behind these incidents, how could they possibly happen?
But at the moment, this was just his speculation, he had no solid evidence.
After he pushed forward, it was then that he heard what they were saying.
"My goodness, what’s happening today? An accident just happened recently, and now another one has died."
"Yeah, has our village hit some kind of bad luck lately? It’s really too terrifying, I’m genuinely a bit scared."
"Yes, and the person seems to be a homeless man."
"What exactly happened? How did he die here?"
People quickly continued talking.
"It seems like a car accident just occurred."
"I don’t know, I arrived late and still don’t know what exactly happened."
"I heard from the people in front that it seems someone hit him with their car by accident, but the driver has already fled the scene."
"My goodness, at first glance, this is a beggar, a homeless person. This is just too pitiful."
...
After hearing what everyone was saying on the outskirts,
Liu Zheng also immediately found an opportunity to squeeze in.
He wanted to see exactly what was going on inside.
And when he finally managed to squeeze through, he could at last see.
At this moment, the man who he had thought was a madman lay in a pool of blood.
Not only that, looking at him, he was definitely already dead.
How could this be?
How could such a thing happen again?
Liu Zheng was somewhat baffled.
It seemed to be happening a bit too frequently.
As he was pondering this,
an ambulance arrived.
Soon they took the person away.
At this point, everyone also started discussing among themselves.
"Heavens, do you guys know what exactly happened? Some say he died here out of the blue, some suggest he was hit, and others claim someone murdered him, so what exactly is it? Why are there so many different stories?"
"Yeah, yeah, I have no idea," replied someone else.
"Mainly because I came over later as well, and I don’t know what exactly happened."
Everyone was shaking their heads.
