Chapter 11: A Major Discovery

  The issue seems to be a bit tricky.

  Last night, Lin Shishi was knocked unconscious by Guo Xiang in this very room and has an extremely bad impression of Tang Xiaosheng, even hating him to the bone.

  Tonight, Lin Shishi was once again knocked unconscious by Little Dragon Girl in this room. If she wakes up, she will probably have the idea of killing Tang Xiaosheng.

  Tang Xiaosheng felt that this time he was probably unable to clear his name even if he jumped into the Yellow River, let alone he had no intention of jumping into the Yellow River.

  What's going on? How will she explain after waking up?

  On the surface, it seems difficult to handle, but Tang Xiaosheng is very calm. As a fake mental patient, he feels that he doesn't need to worry too much about such trivial matters. As long as he continues to pretend to be crazy, Lin Shishi can't do anything to him.

  Having understood all this, Tang Xiaosheng's heart also calmed down.

  As for Lin Shishi, he actually still appreciates her, at least as a nurse, she is very dedicated. Not to mention other things, just her care for Guo Xiang is very meticulous, every time Guo Xiang sneaks out, it is always Lin Shishi who discovers it first.

  The night before last, Guo Xiang sneaked into Tang Xiaosheng's ward, and Lin Shishi soon found out; Last night, Guo Xiang and Tang Xiaosheng secretly left the hospital without even the security guards knowing, but they couldn't escape Lin Shishi's sharp eyes; Tonight, Guo Xiang snuck in to drink bone soup, but before she could finish it, Lin Shishi appeared again.

  It can be seen from this that she is indeed dedicated and responsible for her work as a nurse.

  It's really inhumane to let such a good nurse lie on the floor all night in the cold winter, so Tang Xiaosheng decided to carry her onto the bed to avoid catching a chill.

  As he held Lin Shishi and was about to lay her down on the bed, he inadvertently touched something hard around her waist.

  A female nurse, how can there be a hard object around her waist? The situation is indeed a bit unusual.

  He hesitated for a moment, but his curiosity finally got the better of him. He stretched out his hand and carefully felt around Lin Shishi's waist, and after a moment, he indeed found something hard!

  He concentrated his mind, grasped the hard object with his hand and pulled it outwards. Suddenly he was stunned.

  This hard object turned out to be a handgun!

  A black 92-style semi-automatic pistol!

  Tang Xiaosheng had previously shot police and bandit films, so he was also familiar with guns. After carefully identifying the pistol, he was shocked to find that it was a real gun, and there were still 3 bullets in the magazine.

  How could a female nurse carry a handgun? What kind of person is Lin Shishi anyway?

  This is a real gun loaded with bullets, not a toy, and it's not something to be taken lightly. It's a matter of life and death, and he thinks it should be handled carefully and thoroughly investigated regarding Lin Shishi.

  To further confirm her identity, Tang Xiaosheng decided to conduct a thorough body search on her. His hands began to grope around Lin Shishi's body from head to toe, carefully searching every part that could be touched.

  Although he also felt that groping the female nurse's body was a bit immoral, Lin Shishi's identity was too suspicious, and she actually carried firearms, an extremely dangerous person, who could only be dealt with in extreme circumstances.

  Unfortunately, after a few minutes, Lin Shishi's body had been thoroughly searched, but still nothing was found. Tang Xiaosheng furrowed his brow, it seemed he could only try searching the unsearchable areas now.

  He took a deep breath, focused his mind, stretched out his right hand and probed towards Lin Shishi's chest.

  Huh?

  Tang Xiaosheng was taken aback, as if he had made a major discovery. On Lin Shishi's chest, there was actually a square-shaped hard object!

  He didn't think much and immediately opened Lin Shishi's outer garment, felt around for a bit, and found a small black booklet in the pocket of her undershirt. The booklet was only the size of a deck of cards, with the golden words "Criminal Police" printed on its black cover. Upon opening the booklet, the text that met his eyes read:

  Name: Lin Shishi

  Gender: Female

  Occupation: Detective

  Alarm Number: 00100424

  Beijing Municipal Public Security Bureau Criminal Investigation Division

  In the center of the booklet, there is a photo of Lin Shishi wearing a police uniform. This little booklet is a detective's badge, and Lin Shishi is a detective!

  Tang Xiaosheng was stunned for a moment, he couldn't believe that this seemingly delicate female nurse was actually a detective, no wonder she had a gun on her.

  But since she's a detective, how could she be working as a nurse in a psychiatric hospital? Is she on some kind of special mission, going undercover in the hospital?

  Tang Xiaosheng didn't understand for a moment, but no matter what the truth was, he definitely couldn't afford to offend this female detective. He decided to put the police badge back on her immediately and pretend nothing had happened.

  Just as he was about to put the police badge back into her blouse pocket, Lin Shishi suddenly woke up and exclaimed, "What are you doing?"

  At this time, Tang Xiaosheng's right hand was placed on her chest, perfectly balanced. This is a typical pose used by men when they are being flirtatious, commonly known as "yī xiōng" or "chest strike".

  At the sight of this, Lin Shishi's face changed greatly, and without saying another word, she swung her right hand and slapped him hard.

  It's okay, Tang Xiaosheng used to be a martial arts stunt double too, and his reaction was quite agile. He instinctively took a step back and dodged it beautifully.

  It's really too dangerous! No, it's too ominous!

  "You pervert!" Lin Shishi suddenly became furious, immediately jumped off the bed, clenched her fists and swung them at him.

  Tang Xiaosheng couldn't stand being beaten, raised his arm to block it and tightly grasped her arm, just about to explain.

  Unexpectedly, Lin Shishi was after all a criminal police officer, with extraordinary skills. Her hands moved forward in a smooth motion, and her feet tripped again, causing Tang Xiaosheng to lose his balance instantly. With a loud thud, he fell heavily onto the floor, wailing incessantly.

  Before he could get up, Lin Shishi had already grabbed his right arm and pulled it back, pinning him to the ground with a small grappling hand.

  "What the hell have you done to me?" Lin Shishi asked sternly, Tang Xiaosheng's action just now was too much like a sneak attack, no wonder she reacted so strongly.

  "Officer Lin, don't get excited, it's just a misunderstanding." Tang Xiaosheng, who was pinned to the ground, hastily explained.

  "What misunderstanding... I..." She stopped abruptly here, and Lin Shishi's eyebrows furrowed, turning to ask, "What did you just call me?"

  Tang Xiaosheng slowly handed over the gun and police badge in his left hand, saying: "I'm very sorry, Officer Lin. I also unintentionally discovered your identity. Just now, I just wanted to put the police badge back on you again, without any intention of offending."

  Lin Shishi was taken aback, retrieved her gun and badge, relaxed her hand, stood up, and said slowly: "Since you know my identity, I won't beat around the bush. You're not a mental patient at all, it's Guo Yang who brought you here, am I right?"

  Tang Xiaosheng was slightly surprised, she actually knew this too.

  Lin Shishi continued to ask: "What is your relationship with Guo Yang? What did he let you come here for? You'd better confess the truth."

  Judging from her tone, Tang Xiaosheng felt that the situation seemed not quite right. After getting up from the ground, he said: "Officer Lin, I don't know Guo Yang, I was just hired by him to take care of his daughter Guo Yixiang in the hospital."

  Lin Shishi retorted: "Don't you really know Guo Yang?"

  Tang Xiaosheng shook his head: "I really don't recognize him."

  Lin Shishi gazed at him for a moment, then said after a brief silence: "I checked your personal file yesterday and knew you're an actor, and indeed have nothing to do with Guo Yang. However, I must remind you that your current situation is a bit dangerous."

  Tang Xiaosheng was taken aback: "What's going on?"

  "Now that you're involved in this matter, I'll tell you about it."

  It turned out that Guo Yang had been losing money in business in recent years and owed a large amount of high-interest debt. Due to the creditor's urgent demands, Guo Yang disappeared mysteriously several months ago and went into hiding to avoid debts.

  Among these creditors, many have a very complex social background. If they can't find Guo Yang for a long time, it's highly likely that they will use illegal means to threaten his daughter Guo Yixiang and force Guo Yang to appear.

  The police received a tip-off and started investigating the matter, and found out that Guo Yixiang was receiving treatment from a psychiatrist. To ensure Guo's personal safety, the police decided to send an officer to the hospital to secretly protect her. A month ago, Lin Shishi disguised herself as a nurse and arrived at the hospital.

  Upon hearing this, Tang Xiaosheng also felt somewhat surprised and asked: "Officer Lin, are you saying that the creditor might kidnap Guo Yixiang to force Guo Yang to show up?"

  Lin Shishi nodded: "The psychiatric hospital is a mixed bag, with all sorts of people, which brings no small difficulty to the protection work. We are currently considering moving Guo Yixiang to a new residence, so she will be safer."

  Tang Xiaosheng was worried about how to leave the psychiatric hospital, and upon hearing this, he quickly said: "Officer Lin, this is a good idea. However, without Guo Yang's consent, it would be a bit troublesome to go through the discharge procedures."

  Lin Shishi said: "This is not difficult, as long as the police come forward, it can be easily resolved. The main problem now is where to let Guo Yixiang live?"

  Guo Yixiang only has one relative, Guo Yang. Now that Guo Yang is missing, she has no one to rely on and nowhere to go. Once she leaves the hospital, not only will there be no one to take care of her, but she also has no home to return to.

  Tang Xiaosheng's eyes rolled around and he suggested: "Officer Lin, why don't we let her stay at my place!"

  Lin Shishi reminded: "If you let her live in your home, you may also be in danger, aren't you afraid?"

  "I once promised Guo Yang that I would take good care of Guo Yixiang, a person's credibility is the most important. " Tang Xiaosheng patted his chest and said with great righteousness, but in fact, he had other ideas in mind.

  With Guo Xiang's "Lan Hua Fu Xue Shou", ordinary modern people can't do anything to her, let alone Xiao Long Nu. Even if creditors come knocking on the door, I estimate they won't have any advantage. Taking a step back, there is also the police secretly protecting them.

  The police are also worried about how to settle Guo Yixiang. Lin Shishi saw that Tang Xiaosheng and Guo Yixiang seemed to have a good relationship in the mental hospital for the past two days, so she agreed: "Since you're willing to cooperate, we welcome it too. I don't know when you can be discharged, we'll help arrange things for you."

  "The sooner the better."
