City’s Best Divine Doctor
Chapter 278 - 278 279 Nightmare

278: Chapter 279: Nightmare 278: Chapter 279: Nightmare Xie Cheng didn’t like backstabbers like Zhang Yi, and he didn’t expect that Zhang Yi would dare to come back to the bar.

“What are you doing back here?”

“Why do you stink so much?”

At first, Xie Cheng thought the smell was from customers not flushing the toilet in the restroom.

It turned out, however, that the foul odor was emanating from Zhang Yi.

Just as Xie Cheng was about to say something, Zhang Yi grabbed his throat and dragged him into that restroom.

In the dimly lit bar, no one else witnessed this scene.

Struggling to breathe with Zhang Yi clutching his throat, and just as he was about to scream, Zhang Yi pinned him against the wall with one hand and pulled out a sharp awl, plunging it into Xie Cheng’s neck.

With a gurgling sound, Xie Cheng swallowed his last gulp of saliva, as blood spurted from his neck, splattering the walls of the restroom.

After a few struggles, he soon collapsed limply to the floor.

Until his dying moment, he couldn’t understand why Zhang Yi would want to kill him.

Xie Cheng was now dead, and Zhang Yi left the restroom, went out into the night outside the bar, and quickly disappeared into the darkness.

In the residential area where Zhao Ruxue lived in Jiangbei, she drove home after 10 p.m., and her sister wasn’t working the night shift, so she too came back.

The two women watched TV until about 11 p.m.

before retiring to their respective rooms to rest.

But Zhao Ruxue found it strange, as her sister kept bringing up Ye Qiu in conversation.

Ye Qiu had only visited once, and Zhao Ruxue didn’t think much of it, but she wondered why her sister kept mentioning Ye Qiu?

After Zhao Rubing took a shower and lay down in her room to rest, she had a nightmare around midnight that startled her awake.

For Zhao Rubing, who feared nothing under heaven, it was unexpected that such a nightmare could scare her awake.

Her phone by the bed started to ring.

Picking it up, she saw it was a call from a security guard at the bar.

“What’s up?”

Zhao Rubing asked without even wiping the cold sweat from her body.

“Boss, Xie, Xie Cheng is dead.”

Xie Cheng is dead?

How is that possible?

Zhao Rubing couldn’t believe that the security guard, Xie Cheng, was dead.

“How did he die?”

“Just now, a customer went to the restroom and found blood everywhere.

When we went in to check, we found Xie Cheng dead inside.

He bled out from a stabbing wound to his neck.”

Security guard Chen Jun said.

Zhao Rubing, now clear about the situation, replied, “I’ll be right there.”

Zhao Rubing got up, changed out of her pajamas, and put her clothes back on.

Not wanting to disturb her sister while she rested, she remembered her sister was a police officer.

When she knocked on her sister’s door, Zhao Ruxue had already woken up and asked, “Ruibing, what’s the matter so late at night?”

“Sister, something happened at the bar, a security guard died.”

Upon hearing that something happened at her sister’s bar, Zhao Ruxue immediately became alert and said, “Then I’ll go change.”

Zhao Ruxue changed out of her pajamas and into her police uniform.

Zhao Ruxue and Rubing came downstairs, and Rubing drove towards the Norwegian Forest Bar.

That Xie Cheng, she knew, was a very responsible security guard on ordinary days, but how was he killed?

Could he have provoked someone inside the bar?

The bar was the most complicated place, and Zhao Rubing was naturally very clear about that.

However, if there were any conflicts between the security guards and the customers, she would definitely be the first to know and would intervene to resolve the issue, preventing anything from happening to the security staff.

While driving and pondering, Zhao Ruxue said, “Don’t worry for now.”

After one and a half hours, Zhao Rubing drove to the entrance of the Norwegian Forest Bar.

When Zhao Rubing parked the car and she and Zhao Ruxue got out, the place had already been cordoned off by the police.

The handling here was different from the Nightshade Bar.

The Nightshade Bar’s duty manager would first inform the owner, who would then quietly deal with the bartender.

Although some people knew about it, it did not affect the bar’s business, and the Nightshade Bar was still bustling tonight.

But at the Norwegian Forest Bar, Xie Cheng died in the restroom, discovered by a customer coming to use the toilet, who immediately screamed and then called the police.

The police arrived quickly.

When the police came to investigate, the security guard Chen Jun had already notified Zhao Rubing to come over, and the police would definitely require Zhao Rubing’s cooperation in the investigation.

As Zhao Rubing and Zhao Ruxue entered, only the bar staff remained inside, including some waiters, while most other customers had left.

The bar’s CCTV footage had also been taken by the police.

Now, when Zhao Rubing and Zhao Ruxue arrived, the other security guards immediately gathered around.

“Where is Xie Cheng’s body?”

Zhao Rubing asked.

“The hospital has already come to take it away,”

“Did you take any photos?”

The security guards all shook their heads, feeling that the scene they had witnessed was still very frightening.

When Zhao Ruxue followed into the restroom to look, she could still smell a strong scent of blood, even though it had already been cleaned.

“What about the surveillance footage?”

“The police officers took it away.”

The investigators were officers from a nearby precinct.

Now that side had also informed Zhao Rubing to come to the bar and immediately proceed to the precinct to be interrogated.

Without the surveillance footage and with Xie Cheng’s body not being there, Zhao Ruxue wanted to investigate but couldn’t for the time being.

She could only go first to see Xie Cheng’s body and the surveillance footage.

Zhao Ruxue and Zhao Rubing got back into the car and then drove to the nearby precinct police station.

Upon arriving at the precinct police station, Zhao Ruxue and Zhao Rubing got out of the car.

Just as they were entering, Zhao Ruxue took out her work ID, and soon an officer came to escort the two women inside.

The status of the Zhao Family women was not simple to begin with.

Moreover, Zhao Ruxue herself was the deputy commander of the Criminal Police Battalion of the Jiangbei precinct, holding a high position.

It was perfectly normal for her to come to understand the situation now that her sister Zhao Rubing’s bar had an incident.

“Commander Zhao, Miss Zhao, I am in charge of the Nightshade Bar case,”

The speaker was a man in his thirties, who served as the precinct’s Criminal Police Battalion Commander.

At his first glimpse of the twin sisters, he was surprised.

But he did not dare to look too long and directly addressed the case at hand.

Wang Chao had been the first from the police to receive the emergency call, and then personally led the Criminal Police Battalion officers to investigate.

As for the body of the security guard Xie Cheng, it had been moved to the hospital morgue, and the forensic doctor would conduct a detailed examination of the wounds the next day.

As for the surveillance footage, he had someone bring it back.
