Leap Forward Comics: Watch How I Become a Villainess

Chapter 292 People on Different Paths

In desperation, Lu He dialed Shen Tong's number. At this point in the story, she didn't know who else she could turn to for help besides Shen Tong.

"Why are you calling me again? Do you miss me? It's only been a few minutes and you're already missing me again?" It sounded noisy on Shen Tong's end.

"Are you outside?" Lu He heard the sounds from the street, including vendors hawking their wares and car horns.

"Gathering information, what's wrong?"

"I can't get in touch with Xia Lan, can you help me find her?" Lu He said anxiously.

"Oh, what a coincidence, I've spent the whole day with her..." Shen Tong said lazily.

However, this news clearly made Lu He breathe a sigh of relief: "That's great, let him answer the phone..."

"I can't answer her, she's been gone for ages..." Shen Tong said with a smile, "When you called me about Guo Qi fifteen minutes ago, she had just left..."

A bad feeling washed over me again, and my relaxed state of mind tensed up once more: "Do you know where she went?"

"What's wrong? What happened?" Noticing that Lu He's tone was off, Shen Tong became unusually serious.

"Do you know where she is?" Lu He asked urgently again, disregarding everything else.

"Uh, she seemed to say she was going to some hospital..." Shen Tong's tone became tense as well: "It seems to be West China Hospital or something..."

"Okay, thank you!" Lu He hung up the phone with a click.

Hearing the busy signal, a cold glint flashed in Shen Tong's eyes as she turned to look at Huaren Hospital, which was just across the street.

Inside Huaren Hospital, on the eighth floor of the inpatient ward, it was so quiet that there wasn't even a nurse making rounds.

The corridor was very dark, unlike a normally brightly lit inpatient ward.

Xia Lan walked along and found that the wards were all empty, with no patients' names on the doorplates. Only at the very end did she find a ward with a patient's name on it.

Her name is Zhao Mingna.

The atmosphere here made Xia Lan feel uneasy. She cautiously entered the ward and tiptoed towards the figure lying on the bed.

Judging from her figure, the person lying there should be a girl, but she seemed to be sleeping very soundly and wasn't moving at all. Xia Lan turned on her phone's flashlight and shone it towards the girl.

"Hey! Zhou Ziyin!" she exclaimed softly, covering her mouth in shock. How could Zhou Ziyin be in Zhao Mingna's hospital bed?

However, this at least proves that Zhou Ziyin was taken away by Zhou Boming that night.

Xia Lan wanted to wake Zhou Ziyin, so she reached out and gently shook her shoulder: "Zhou..." Just as her hand touched the area near her neck, the cold touch made Xia Lan pull her hand back immediately.

Her breathing became erratic. Xia Lan gently patted her chest, telling herself to calm down, to calm down. She trembled as she reached out to touch Zhou Ziyin's neck again.

Cold, no pulse.

she died?

He died in Zhao Mingna's hospital bed? Where is Zhao Mingna?

Xia Lan, still reeling from the fear, was suddenly interrupted by footsteps coming from the corridor.

Someone's coming! And there's more than one person.

Xia Lan quickly turned off her phone light and hid under the hospital bed. She used her strength to grab the railing under the bed and pressed herself tightly against the bed frame so that the hanging sheet could just cover her.

Just as they finished hiding, the door creaked open.

Looking at the feet on the ground, I saw three men had entered. They wore blue caregiver uniforms.

"Send the body to the freezer..." The person giving the order sounded quite old, with a slightly aged voice.

The other two people remained silent and began to push Zhou Ziyin's hospital bed out.

"Why are you dawdling? Get your hands moving faster!" The one in charge was clearly dissatisfied with the two workers' slow movements.

Xia Lan was tense under the bed, not daring to make a sound. Her palms were sweating. Because of her presence, the weight of the bed had changed, so the two people were pushing a little slower.
