Chapter 41 I Hate My Incompetence
It turned out that Cynthia was also shocked when she received the phone call from Mr. Harry. She had no idea how to tell Basil the shocking news. However, Cynthia had no choice but to dial the phone of Basil's suite with a perturbed mood.
As soon as Basil picked up the phone, he asked Cynthia in a hurry, "When will we leave! I've read the document. Tell Harry to hurry up!
But Cynthia over the phone faltered.
"Mr. Basil... Mr. Basil., the director... He..."
Basil was annoyed by Cynthia's tone! Basil asked coldly
"Calm down, say it straight! Don't falter to say!"
"Mr. Basil, the director was stabbed by someone in the same cell yesterday morning. Not long before we arrived at the hotel, he were sent to the local hospital for emergency treatment. But the doctor said..." "What did he say?"
"The doctor said that he might not be able to live for long, because the aorta in his abdomen was punctured and a large amount of blood was lost. In addition, he struggled when he was injured, which accelerated the blood flow rate and caused a shortage of blood supply in his brain. In addition, his abdomen..."
Basil interrupted Cynthia before she could finish her words, "How long does he still have?"
"Less than an hour."
"Get a car and go to the hospital right now!"
...
Before long, Cynthia and Basil appeared at the gate of the hospital. Basil walked quickly towards the ward all the way, followed by Cynthia who pointed the direction to Basil.
However, no matter how hard Basil tried to catch up, he was still late. When he walked into the ward, he only saw a cold corpse.
At that moment, Basil panicked. He once thought that he could finally clear up the grievances of his parents. Finally, he could rely on his own efforts to give his parents justice!
But in the end, what he had been looking forward to for a long time was all ruined! Basil stood blankly in front of the corpse, and a tear fell from the corner of his eye!
It was not because Basil had a deep feeling for the corpse, but because he felt powerless, which made his heartbroken. It was like a handful of sand in his palm, watching it slowly flow away, but he could do nothing! This was the first time that Basil had hated in his heart!
He hated the god for being unfair. Even the most ordinary parents' love was taken away from him when he was young! He would rather be an ordinary person as long as his parents were with him.
He hated his incompetence. He had already found the director. Why didn't he protect the director earlier! The truth was so close to him that he could almost feel it. As long as he struggled a bit, he could catch the truth, prove his parents' innocence, and bring the murderer to justice. But all of this was ruined!
Cynthia stood quietly behind Basil. She could clearly feel the obvious sadness around him! She sighed deeply, but there was nothing she could do!
She walked slowly to the nurse and whispered in her ear.
Then the nurse followed Cynthia out of the ward. Before Cynthia left, she closed the door. The nurse asked Cynthia curiously
"What's the relationship between the gentleman in the ward and the patient? Do the dead body to be handled by that man or by the hospital?" The nurse asked as she handed the folder to Cynthia and continued
"If the man decide to let the hospital deal with it, there is an agreement that needs your signature."
Cynthia took the folder from the nurse. When she was about to look through it, Basil pushed the door open and walked out of the ward.
Seeing this, Cynthia quickly handed the folder to the nurse and walked to Basil, leaving the nurse standing alone and looking at Cynthia in astonishment.
"Mr. Basil, the hospital asked us how to deal with the corpse of the director. Should we solve it by ourselves, or... "
But Basil didn't seem to be interested in it. Before Cynthia finished her words, he interrupted her
"Where is Mr. Harry?"
"He is waiting outside."
"Go back to the hotel and bring him to see me!"
After saying that, Basil walked towards the gate of the hospital without looking back. Although Cynthia was a little confused, she still remembered the request of "Don't ask what you shouldn't ask". She quickly dialed Harry and talked to him in fluent English.
The nurse watched Basil and Cynthia disappear in front of her. She tried to hold Cynthia's hand and let her sign the agreement. But Cynthia refused her with an apologetic smile. She had no choice but to take the agreement back to her office. In other words, the corpse would become the subject of their hospital's dissecting because no one recognized it.
After a short while, Basil and Cynthia returned to the gate of the Summer Hotel. This time, Cynthia was not in the mood to wander around, because she clearly felt that this matter began to become a little complicated. And the state of Basil seemed to confirm Cynthia's thoughts.
Then, Harry arrived at the gate of the Summer Hotel. As soon as he got off the car, he walked towards Basil with a flattering smile on his face.
This time, Basil no longer ignored Harry, but looked straight into his eyes, as if Basil had seen him thoroughly.
Although he wore a lot of clothes, Harry felt cold under the gaze of Basil! At first, although Harry admired Basil very much that he could reach his current position at such a young age, in fact, Harry disdained him very much in his heart.
He was told that Basil was just a young man who knew nothing but to do evil. Basil only cared about his own thoughts and didn't care about the thoughts of other elders at all. But the look in Basil's eyes just now made Harry have to re-examine Basil's position in his heart!
Suddenly, Basil looked away and walked towards the room on the top of the building. Seeing this, Cynthia politely communicated with Harry and asked him to go to the room of Basil with her.
Harry felt something was wrong. But then he gave up the idea. In his heart, Basil was just a young boy. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't stir up any trouble. Even if he had tampered with the director, in the eyes of Harry, Basil couldn't notice it at all!
However, what Harry didn't expect was that not only did Basil know the problem of the director, but also knew their purpose! ☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
