Chapter 1307 Interrogating the Suspect Face to Face Again!

“Hello?”

Fang Qiu answered the call.

“How are you?”

Jiang Miaoyu’s voice came from the phone. “I just saw the news. I didn’t expect such a big event to happen to your Foundation.”

“I’m fine.”

Fang Qiu answered with a smile.

“It’s such a sensational event. How could you be okay?”

Jiang Miaoyu said with concern, “I believe in you. You are definitely not that kind of immoral person. I can empathize with your grievances. But no matter what, we are all Chinese Medicine practitioners. We have to bear it when we are misunderstood. The slander against you is just an upgraded version of misunderstanding. Even if the whole world doubts you, I will stand firmly on your side forever.”

“Mm.”

Fang Qiu nodded and asked with a smile, “Wow, that’s quite a long speech from you.”

“Sure thing.”

Jiang Miaoyu smiled meaningfully and said, “Hold on for a little longer. I’ll be back in a month. At that time, I’ll work in the Foundation and help solve any problems!

She seemed to have arranged it all.

Fang Qiu could not help smiling wryly.

One month!

The day of her return was already on the agenda?

After the final of the second season of the Young Chinese Medicine Doctor, he had a midnight snack with Jiang Mengjie and her. In one month’s time, the two ladies were going to work together. When Fang Qiu recalled the past and thought about the future, his heart leaped involuntarily.

“Okay.”

He felt a bit overwhelmed. But since Jiang Miaoyu had taken the initiative to make this arrangement, Fang Qiu could only go along with the arrangement. Otherwise, he would be in big trouble.

On the Internet…

All kinds of reports appeared, and the news of the suspect being caught was widely spread. Only then did Fang Qiu’s fans feel relieved.

It was hard to believe many of them were nearly convinced that Fang Qiu was related to the scandal.

And now…

Although the truth had not been revealed yet, they all knew that this matter had nothing to do with Fang Qiu and the Foundation.

Therefore, Fang Qiu could finally be exonerated of the blame.

“I’ve always believed that legendary Fang Qiu would never let us down.”

“Now, we can be sure that this matter has nothing to do with Fang Qiu and his Foundation. Our legendary Fang Qiu is innocent.”

“Finally, he cleared his name. Those who have been slandering our legendary Fang Qiu, where are you? Let’s see what else you can say now!”

Fang Qiu’s fans had not dared to speak for him since the start of the incident. At this time, they showed up and defended Fang Qiu against the charges of injustice, one after another!

However…

Some conspiracy theorists were still hurling criticisms at Fang Qiu.

“What makes you think he has nothing to do with it?”

“These stupid fans are overly thoughtless. The police haven’t yet announced the investigation result. What makes you think Fang Qiu is innocent? He could have put on an act before the cameras, and you foolishly believed it?”

“That’s right. I think the suspect must have said that under great pressure.”

“Before the truth is revealed, Fang Qiu is still a suspect. We demand the truth!”

“That’s right! We want the truth!”

As soon as these conspiracists appeared, they irritated Fang Qiu’s fans.

They had endured the grievous injustice for so long. The suspect had admitted that the counterfeit traditional Chinese medicine was not from Fang Qiu and the Foundation, but these people were still attacking him.

This unfair accusation provoked Fang Qiu’s fans to anger. They felt depressed and furious.

“Then, just wait.”

“We are more anxious to see the truth than you are. We’re expecting legendary Fang Qiu to give you a slap in the face with the truth like before!”

“We absolutely believe in Fang Qiu. You guys don’t understand him at all. Legendary Fang Qiu is a complete doctor of traditional Chinese medicine!”

There were no insults.

However, the two sides were still at loggerheads.

These conspiracy theorists and anti-fans launched an all-out effort to slander Fang Qiu from all aspects as they tried all means to link Fang Qiu with the shoddy traditional Chinese medicine.

Fang Qiu’s fans didn’t feel like arguing. In unison, they said they were looking forward to the truth.

They firmly believed that as long as the truth was made public, Fang Qiu would be proven to be innocent!

Well…

While everyone was waiting for the truth…

The official Weibo account of the Three Billion Foundation issued a Weibo post.

“As Mr. Fang Qiu said, whether or not this matter is related to the Foundation, we have no excuse to avoid our duties. Four patients became seriously ill after taking the shoddy herbs. We will pay each of them one million Huaxia coins in compensation and cover all their medical expenses. In addition, we will give ten thousand Huaxia coins to the patients who received inferior traditional Chinese medicine. We will pay for their treatment!”

After this post came out…

In just thirty minutes, countless people gave it a thumbs-up.

Not to mention other things…

They should be applauded merely for their courage to bear the consequences!

No ordinary people had such a strong sense of responsibility and courage to do that.

“Well done!”

“Their means of dealing with this public relations crisis is superb!”

“This is the simplest and most direct way of dealing with a public relations crisis that I have ever seen. They did not shirk their duty and are willing to bear all the consequences. We should smash the like button for them!”

What an impressive response to the crisis! When this incident happened, they took all the responsibility first. As for the other matters, they will handle them after finding out the truth. Only Fang Qiu can be courageous enough to lead this, right?”

“See? All the other enterprises should learn from it and admit their mistakes in time. Don’t focus only on shifting the blame with your public relations gimmicks when anything goes wrong. The best way for any public relations is to shoulder the responsibility!”

In the Blackhill Gate Village…

After the call with Jiang Miaoyu, Fang Qiu soon received the news: the other four escaped doctors had been successfully caught.

At this time, Fang Qiu stepped into the police station.

“Hello.”

As soon as Fang Qiu entered the police station, he entered the guard room, found a policeman on duty, and asked, “Excuse me, where is your chief?”

“Fang Qiu?”

The policeman was shocked to see Fang Qiu.

“Yes.”

Fang Qiu nodded.

“Oh…”

The policeman nodded knowingly as if he knew why Fang Qiu came. He pointed to a room on the second floor of the police station and said, “That’s his office. He is inside.”

“Thank you.”

Fang Qiu thanked him and walked toward the office building of the police station.

Soon…

He came to the door of the chief’s office on the second floor.

“Knock, knock, knock…”

Fang Qiu gently knocked on the door.

“Come in.”

From the office, a voice came.

Fang Qiu pushed the door open and went in.

There…

A middle-aged man of medium size stood up. He carried an enamel jar and was about to pour some water into the kettle in the corner.

“You must be the chief, right?”

Fang Qiu walked inside and asked.

“That’s right,”

“I’m the chief, Chief Pan.”

Chief Pan took a look at Fang Qiu. His expression changed slightly but immediately returned to normal.

“Nice to meet you, Chief Pan.”

Fang Qiu nodded and asked, “I want to know the result of your interrogation. Have you found the truth of the matter?”

“No.”

Chief Pan shook his head returned to his desk and sat down. Then, he said to Fang Qiu, “I can understand it. As the concerned party, you must be very anxious to learn about the result. But the interrogation is not something that can be completed in a short time. Moreover, this suspect is tight-lipped and this made it more difficult for us to investigate. He was just brought to our station. The results of the interrogation would not be that fast.”

“That is to say, the first round of interrogation is over?”

Fang Qiu asked with a frown.

“Yes.”

Chief Pan nodded and said, “For the time being, we don’t have any results as the suspect is keeping mum.”

“Can I give it a try?”

Fang Qiu asked.

“No.”

Chief Pan immediately shook his head and refused his request. “It’s against the rules. I’ve told you so much because your Foundation has given a lot of benefits to the neighbors. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have discussed this case with you at all. After all, no matter how famous and capable you are, you’re just an ordinary person, but I’m a law executor.”

“I understand.”

Fang Qiu nodded.

He knew that he didn’t have special privileges. Neither did he want to ask for any special privileges on this matter, so he had gone directly to the chief.

“I know very well how tight-lipped the suspect is. I believe you also want to find out the truth and solve the case as soon as possible.”

“From the current situation, trying to get anything out of the suspect seems a little challenging. As the person involved and a Chinese Medicine practitioner, I may learn something from him, so I hope you can give me a chance.”

Fang Qiu made a request.

“No way!”

Chief Pan shook his head again with a determined expression.

“You can record the whole process.”

Fang Qiu added immediately.

He knew why Chief Pan refused him.

Chief Pan was worried that they might act in collusion and make a false confession. Since this police station was located in the countryside, its facilities were inadequate. There was no surveillance camera in the interrogation room. In this case, they could only do a manual recording.

“You must need to do this?”

Chief Pan hesitated.

“Sure”

Fang Qiu nodded and explained, “It’s about my innocence and the survival of the entire Foundation, so I have to find out the truth as quickly as possible.”

“Well…”

Chief Pan started to waver.

This matter had caused such a stir that almost everyone in the country paid attention to it. Moreover, the higher-ups had also instructed that they must break the case and uncover the truth as early as possible.

Under such circumstances…

The suspect’s silence was the biggest obstacle to the interrogation!

Moreover…

What Chief Pan feared the most was…

The suspect didn’t say anything and remained silent. His face often showed a conflicted and pained look. After being in this state for a long time, prisoners might go crazy or even commit suicide!

Chief Pan thought about it for a long time.

“Then, alright.”

Eventually, Chief Pan nodded and said, “I can only give you one chance to try, and I will send a police officer to record the interrogation.”

“Good!”

Fang Qiu immediately nodded.

Just a while later…

According to Chief Pan’s arrangement, Fang Qiu entered the interrogation room. A policeman carried a digital video camera and followed him. Once they entered the interrogation room, he found the best angle and began to record the interrogation conducted by Fang Qiu.

In addition to the police officer responsible for recording the video…

There was only a single table in the interrogation room.

The doctor sat there in handcuffs. Fang Qiu walked over and sat down opposite him.

A one-to-one and face-to-face interrogation…

Fang Qiu put both hands on the table.

“Do you know about the status quo of basic medical conditions in the countryside?”

Right after he sat down, Fang Qiu asked the suspect.

As soon as he asked this question…

The suspect, who had remained motionless when he was being questioned by the police, suddenly raised his head and glanced at Fang Qiu. Then, he lowered his head deeply.

“The basic medical situation in the countryside is that most people have low incomes and don’t have money to see a doctor. You had run the clinic for a few months, so you should have met some patients who do not have money to see a doctor, right?”
