The next day, after more than an hour of bumpy travel, Yunsu and her cousin He Weiran finally stopped the car outside a complex surrounded by walls over two meters high. From the outside, the place resembled a prison.
"Green Forest Rehabilitation Center? What a strange name," Yunsu remarked.
"Perhaps it's home to a group of unconventional individuals," He Weiran replied.
As they spoke, they entered the gates of the Green Forest Sanatorium. While her cousin was engaged in conversation with the staff, Yunsu quietly approached the reception desk to inquire about Wang Xiangzhi's condition.
Soon, she was led by a cute nurse to a flowerbed nearby. There, she saw a plump woman sitting in a wheelchair, her white hair disheveled and clinging to her skin. Yunsu thought to herself that perhaps due to medication, this woman's hair must have been much shinier before; the pain of losing her daughter had evidently tormented her to such a state.
"Mrs. Huo..." Suddenly, the woman grabbed Yunsu's arm with surprising strength.
"Has it been taken care of? Has it been taken care of? That wretched woman, that wretched woman! Ha ha... retribution, retribution, my daughter..."
"Mrs. Huo, Mrs. Huo, please calm down, the nurse..."
Wang Xiangzhi's grip was astonishingly strong; Yunsu felt a bruise forming on her arm almost instantly.
"Alright, alright, let go! I said let go!" The cute nurse hurried over to pull at Wang Xiangzhi's hand.
At the same time, she poured a small cup of some yellow liquid into Wang Xiangzhi's mouth.
Coughing a few times, Wang Xiangzhi quickly quieted down, her head slowly tilting to one side.
"Little Officer, are you alright? I'm so sorry. This patient tends to have episodes when she sees strangers, but she's usually fine," the nurse said, clearly mistaking Yunsu for a colleague who had come with He Weiran for an investigation.
"Is she going to be alright? What did she drink earlier?"
"It was a sedative. She'll be fine in a little while."
"It seems her condition is quite serious."
"Excuse me, is 583 related to any case?"
"583?"
"That's her, Wang Xiangzhi. We usually refer to patients this way for the convenience of medication..."
"It's nothing. I'm just here to check on her for a friend."
"I understand. It's a secret investigation then. In that case, I won't pry further. However, I do have something I need to report." The nurse said, trying to sound clever.
"Someone came to visit her not long ago."
"Who was it?"
The nurse said smugly, "Hehe, it's quite valuable information. Seeing you here for 583, I knew this information would be useful." She handed Yunsu a folded piece of paper.
Yunsu unfolded it and saw a name, ID number, phone number, and address written on it.
"Thank you so much! I'm truly grateful," Yunsu exclaimed, nearly bursting with excitement.
"Alright, thank you for your cooperation. I must be going now; my colleagues should be finished as well."
Yunsu strode directly toward the gate, while the little nurse left behind seemed to have more to say.
Her cousin was waiting for her at the entrance.
"Why are you later than I am?"
"A significant discovery—someone has visited Mrs. Huo. Could you please help me look into it?"
"Impressive."
Her cousin glanced at the note in her hand. "I’d like to meet this person. Alright, I'll check it out when I get back. The address and phone number might be fake, but hopefully, the ID isn’t."
After parting ways with He Weiran at the school gate, Yunsu had just returned to her dormitory when she couldn't help but call her cousin. "Why is my cousin so slow? It shouldn't take this long to type a few keys."
"Boss, you've only been back for an hour, and your cousin has been driving for more than that," San Zhua interjected with some dissatisfaction.
"Who drives like a snail while shopping?"
Just then, Yunsu's phone rang—it was indeed her cousin, He Weiran.
