Chapter 991 - Do not be afraid; I am here.
Pei Ge did not know when she had fallen asleep by her mother’s bedside, but when she opened her eyes the next day, sunlight was already lighting the room.
She checked the time and brought her toiletries to the washroom.
As she came in a hurry yesterday, Chen Zhengchu was thoughtful enough to prepare everything for her.
After washing up, she saw that the man was already in the ward; he was in his doctor’s coat.
“Morning. Why are you here so early?”
She stared at him in surprise.
“I’m on duty right now. I brought you some breakfast; eat it while it’s still hot,” replied the man while smiling at her.
The person on the other end did not reply immediately, seemingly trying to recall who had called him, but it did not take too long before he answered.
“We brought the suspect to the station, but since we don’t have solid evidence, coupled with her refusal to talk despite our probing, we are unable to prove that she’s the one who hit your mother.”
The police officer shared the results of their investigation of Liu Yan with a little frustration.
They interrogated the woman all night after they brought her to the station, but she remained tight-lipped.
No matter what they did, she refused to admit to her crime.
“Weren’t you guys working on the security footage?”
Pei Ge knitted her brows when she heard the police officer’s words.
“That’s right, but it’ll take a while before we can make the images clearer. Sigh… She’s likely to post a bail before we can make that happen. After all, we don’t have evidence at hand.”
“… Is there no other way?”
She pursed her lips, her voice full of indignance.
“For now… I’m afraid there’s none,” responded the police officer with a touch of regret. “Don’t worry, though; if she’s truly your mother’s attacker, then she definitely can’t get away!”
Listening to police officer’s reassurance, uncertainty gripped her heart.
“… Alright. Thank you, sir.”
Talking to the police for a while more, she eventually hung up the call.
Can second auntie’s family really watch her go to prison?
