Chapter 175 The body disappeared on its own?
"What?!" Dean Zhong suddenly widened his eyes in shock, "You..."
Director Ye also looked at Ji Ran in disbelief, his eyes filled with deep pity.
So... this child is an orphan? ?
No wonder she carries such a sense of contradiction.
Although he is extremely intelligent, his eyes are surprisingly clear.
It’s like I know everything, and yet I know nothing.
No wonder I don’t even know what love is and can’t understand those interpersonal relationships.
It all made sense.
Thinking of this, Director Ye's eyes were suddenly filled with pity when he looked at Ji Ran.
Ji Ran didn't have time to pay attention to Director Ye's eager gaze next to him. Instead, he stared at Dean Zhong's face and realized that the other party almost wanted to blurt out something, but suddenly shut his mouth.
The doubts in my heart took root more and more.
"The dean seems to have some impression of my mother's case." Ji Ran smiled, but the smile did not reach his eyes.
She stated this rather than asking a question.
The calm gaze was like an invisible blade, threatening the other party to shudder.
Dean Zhong realized that he had overreacted and subconsciously wanted to deny it, but the other party's aura oppressed him so much that his mind was in a mess and he was unable to immediately construct a complete logical chain.
Director Ye's first reaction when he heard this was that it was impossible. After all, there have been so many outrageous things in the hospital over the years. Even if it was the cases that my mother-in-law personally diagnosed, there would be thousands or tens of thousands of them. It would be impossible for her to remember them all. What's more, these were cases from the obstetrics and gynecology department twenty years ago. Logically, my mother-in-law should not have any impression of them.
But without hearing the mother-in-law's answer, Director Ye turned his head again in confusion, but suddenly saw the panic revealed on his mother-in-law's face.
"Mom? What's wrong with you?"
It was the first time that Director Ye saw her mother-in-law, who was always calm and resolute, look so pale.
Dean Zhong did not answer. She took a deep breath and forced a helpless smile.
"Yes, Professor Ji is indeed smart, you guessed it right."
Ji Ran looked indifferent, but rolled his eyes silently in his heart.
Is this clever again?
"I heard that the dean used to be a famous surgeon in this hospital. How come he has an impression of obstetrics and gynecology cases?" Ji Ran asked in a puzzled manner.
"...Because..." Dean Zhong was stunned. He was unprepared for this straightforward question. He clenched his fingertips nervously, and his eyes dodged uncontrollably. Then he smiled.
"…Because your mother is a rare beauty, when she was hospitalized, it caused quite a stir in our hospital."
Although what he said was true, his eyes, which were obviously droopy at the corners, still flickered a little.
Ji Ran raised a single eyebrow, suppressing his impatience.
I didn't expect the other party was still making excuses.
As someone who hates these twists and turns, it's really annoying.
However, since the dean would find excuses to cover up something, it means that she must know more than I expected.
And it must not be something that can be seen in the light.
"So, Dean, can you tell me where Dr. Meng Hui is?" Ji Ran tried hard to keep his face calm.
"Hehe...Dr. Meng resigned due to personal reasons, so we naturally don't know what happened after she left the hospital." Dean Zhong gave a very reasonable explanation.
The smile on Ji Ran's face faded significantly, and his brows furrowed slightly in displeasure.
Director Ye felt the pressure on the girl next to him suddenly drop, and he tensed up involuntarily.
I always thought that this girl was smart, pretty, simple and cute, but I didn't expect that her aura would be so intimidating when she was angry.
How can this be a way of thanking Meng Hui? It looks more like he wants to kill his enemy...
Director Ye swallowed silently, and opened his mouth to try to smooth things over for his mother-in-law.
"Professor Ji... After all, this happened twenty years ago, so it's normal that the dean doesn't know... How about this! I'll find a way to help you find Dr. Meng Hui, okay?"
Ji Ran did not answer. She just suddenly lowered her eyes, as if her thoughts were suddenly interrupted, or as if she was listening to some sound.
However, the low pressure on her body was instantly dissipated.
Director Ye thought that her comfort had worked, and even Dean Zhong thought so. She stood up as if escaping from the situation, and smiled stiffly,
"Then... Professor Ji, please have some tea first. I'll go make a phone call and tell the obstetrician and gynecologist not to come."
Having said that, she turned around and tried to escape towards the desk.
But before he could take a step, the cold voice of the girl behind him sounded again,
"What about my mother's body?"
Dean Zhong, who had just turned around, froze in place.
Upon hearing this, Director Ye felt that it was natural for a child to want to find her mother. Since Professor Ji became an orphan, it meant that no one took care of her mother's funeral.
So I simply recalled the relevant regulations.
"Normally, for patients without relatives by their side, the relevant departments will first look for their relatives to claim the body after death. This should be recorded in the archives..." Director Ye explained, and suddenly his eyes lit up.
"Eh? Maybe we can find Professor Ji's relatives based on the files?"
As she said this, she looked at Ji Ran with some excitement, but her expression remained unchanged and her eyes were still coldly looking in the direction of her mother-in-law.
"What if... there is no relative to claim the body?" Ji Ran said coldly.
"If no one claims it within a year, it will be handed over to the relevant social departments for processing."
After Director Ye answered, she turned her head to look at her mother-in-law for confirmation, but at this moment she found that her mother-in-law was frozen in place, and her back was even trembling with guilt.
"Mom? What's wrong with you?" Director Ye said, and immediately stepped forward to support her.
Dean Zhong allowed his daughter-in-law to support him, but did not respond to her.
She turned around slowly, her face obviously paler, but she still forced a smile, "Our hospital has been renovated several times over the years, and the files may be incomplete..."
"Really?" Ji Ran stood up calmly and approached the two women step by step: "So, you still remember it, right?"
“Haha…how could I…” Dean Zhong was so nervous that he didn’t even realize that he was subconsciously taking steps backwards.
Director Ye looked at his mother-in-law's guilty look in disbelief, and even beads of sweat appeared on his temples.
"Why not?" Ji Ran raised the corners of his lips, his innocent eyes revealing a threat: "My mother can cause a sensation in the entire hospital just because of her beautiful face, right, Dean?"
Even Director Ye understood the implicit meaning of this sentence.
Yes, this is what my mother-in-law said herself. For a person who can impress people with her beauty alone, her death due to childbirth complications will definitely make people feel sad. It is impossible that there will be no impression at all.
Dean Zhong's lips began to tremble slightly, and she opened her mouth subconsciously trying to struggle.
"It can't be..." Ji Ran didn't give her a chance, but pretended to be surprised and said, "Well... the body got lost by itself, right?"
