The chief police officer replied hurriedly, “No. There are no grounds to the case, so you don't have to sign anything."
Luca smiled and said, "Then I shall leave first."
"Sure, sure." The chief police officer sent her out of the police station himself. After watching her leave, he turned around and
looked at his subordinates. "Next time, before you go and bring someone in to aid in the investigation, take a proper look at the
evidence on hand and see whether or not the actions can be constituted as a crime. Just look at what happened today. We've
only wasted our time and resources."
"Yes, Chief," the older police officer replied. He only watched the footage without thinking that much.
After analyzing the case, he believed that Pierre intentionally fell to the ground to set Luca up.
"This matter has to be made public. Write a review report later and hand it to me before you get off work." The chief police officer
turned around and returned to his office after that.
"Yes, sir."
"And you'll have to submit a report for failing to file the case. If that man is unconvinced, then have him provide solid evidence to
us. That's the only way we can continue to handle the case." The chief police officer turned around and added.
The older police officer nodded to indicate that he understood. "Yes, Chief."
After Luca left the police station, she sent a message to Johann: [Dr. Park, are you busy?]
Johann replied to her message soon after: [Not really. What's the matter?]
[I'd like you to help me enquire about Pierre Mallory's current condition.] Luca was curious. The police officers told her that Pierre
was currently receiving treatment at the hospital, so he must be lying on the ward bed in the hospital now. What was worse was
he could not lie still and quietly.
[He's in the hospital? Has his retribution finally come?] Johann was surprised. After all, people tended to get what they deserved.
He did not expect karma to hit Pierre so soon.
[...] Luca was surprised that he would react that way.
Doctors were always called angels for their kind hearts. However, they were ordinary people too. All those things that Pierre did
had provoked the anger of many. That was why Johann would say something like that.
[How did you know he's been admitted to the hospital? I didn't receive any news about it.] Johann continued to ask her after she
sent him a few full stops.
[It's because of me that he had to be admitted to the hospital.] Luca was replying to his messages while she was in the taxi. [He
should be in the neurology department if I'm not mistaken.
[Is it that serious? Did you hit him?] Johann was still surprised, and he opened the hospital's information system right away. He
was different from the other doctors. He had the right to check every department's system in the hospital.
[Not at all. But he'll have to suffer some pain for a couple of days.] Luca replied to him as she waited for his result.
Johann found Pierre's information by entering his name. He clicked on it and saw his name. Indeed, Pierre was admitted to the
hospital today. The main complaint was an unexplained pain in his body.
[Dr. Craw, I found his records. The main complaint states that there's unexplained pain in his body. Is he still a man? He can't
even endure it and needs to be admitted to the hospital? He's not thinking of setting you up, right?] Johann despised Pierre from
the bottom of his heart.
How could a ruthless man be admitted to the hospital just because of some pain...
Luca replied: [Dr. Park, I'd like you to monitor his situation from time to time. His condition isn't as simple as it seems.] She could
guarantee that he would not die, but she was uncertain if Pierre would pass out from the pain.
Johann let out a sigh as he read the message on his phone. Luca and Luke were truly a couple, after all. They would ask for his
help to keep an eye on everything.
Fortunately, it was convenient for him to do so in the hospital. Otherwise, he would have to keep heading to the other
departments. That would indeed be tough for him.
[Sure. I'm just curious. Which part of the body did you strike? How can it be so painful?] Johann recalled the anatomy lessons he
took before. He was not taught which part of the body would cause such severe pain when struck. Besides, there was nothing
written on Pierre's diagnosis analysis. It seemed like there was no obvious answer for what was causing his pain.
[Would you like to try?] Luca was in a good mood, so she suddenly teased him.
Johann replied: [No, thank you. I'll probably have to take a look at him later. If they can't find the source of his pain, they'll come
to ask for my help. I just wanted to ask you so that I won't be embarrassed later.]
[It's a long story. Even if you know how I did it, there's no way to treat it. You can only give him some painkillers. He'll be fine in
two days.] Luca replied when she saw that the driver had almost reached the destination. She kept her phone.
Johann read her message and could not help but shiver. Her sophistication made him wonder what she had gone through in the
past to become the way she was now.
Johann kept his phone away. The head of the neurology department came in hurriedly. “Dr. Park, are you available now?"
"Yes. I've finished performing all my surgeries today. Dr. Lance, why are you all sweaty? What happened?" Johann asked an
obvious question.
"The second young master of the Mallory family has just come in today. His complaint is that he's suffering from unexplainable
pain. I did every health check-up there is and nothing seems to be wrong with him. I can't find the source of his pain. I'd like to
ask for your help to take a look at him. You're knowledgeable and well-informed, after all. You might be able to find out why," Mr.
Lance pleaded with him.
Johann stood up. It was his fate to help Luke clean up Luca's mess. "Come on. Let's go take a look."
“That'll be great.” Dr. Lance looked more positive now.
Johann told him beforehand. "But I can't guarantee that I'll be able to figure out what's causing the pain. After all, there are too
many reasons that can cause pain. Even if we form a medical team to perform screening examinations, we won't be able to find
out within a week.”
Dr. Lance knew that too. He nodded his head instantly. "Of course, I know that. But two heads are better than one. I'm glad
you're willing to help."
Johann nodded and followed him out of the office.
The two of them came to the ward. They could hear Pierre groaning in pain before they even went in.
He was cursing and swearing while he was in pain.
"What kind of shitty hospital is this? I've been here for so long but the doctors here have no way to stop the pain?"
Johann glanced at Dr. Lance. "Your patient has a really bad temper."
"There's nothing I can do. He's the second young master of the Mallory family in A City. That's just the way he is. Otherwise, I
wouldn't have to trouble you," Dr. Lance said helplessly. They had been busy screening through the possible causes behind
Pierre's pain.
However, Pierre could no longer wait for them. He scolded every doctor and nurse in the department.
They had already done a thorough health check-up on him, yet they still could not figure it out.
Johann put his hands in the pockets of his lab coat and walked into the ward.
"What's going on here?" he asked with a cold expression on his face. Every doctor here had to show respect to Pierre except for
him.
It was because he was capable.
One's capability trumped over everything no matter where one was.
"The patient claims that he's suffering from abdominal pain, but we can't find the reason even after running through multiple
medical examinations," one of the doctors answered immediately.
Johann looked at Pierre's face turning green and pale because of the pain. His heart tightened, and he was glad that he had
never offended Luca. Otherwise, he would have ended up in the same state as Pierre.
