Chapter 58: Chapter 58 Investigation Yielded Nothing
Huo Tingdong said, “Wait for me, I’ll be there soon.”
Huo Tingdong drove to the hospital and returned to the ward with Momo. The doctor had just stepped out of the ward. As soon as he saw Huo Tingdong, he immediately reported the little guy’s condition.
Knowing that Han was alright and had fully regained consciousness, he immediately entered the ward, came to the bedside, and asked, “Han, how are you feeling? Is there anything uncomfortable?”
In the hospital bed, Han sat leaning against the headboard, his eyes blank and innocent, and he shook his head vaguely.
He didn’t have any discomfort anymore, just some minor coughing.
Huo Tingdong sat down beside the bed and asked, “Han, how did you end up in the water?”
Han widened his eyes, blinking in some surprise.
It seemed like he couldn’t remember anything, completely clueless.
Huo Tingdong slightly frowned and asked, “Han, do you remember what happened at school?”
Han thought seriously for a moment, frowned slightly, but then shook his head.
Huo Tingdong asked again, “Do you remember the drowning incident?”
Han shook his head.
Huo Tingdong, persistent, asked, “Do you remember anything from before you left school?”
Han still shook his head.
Huo Tingdong looked suspiciously at the doctor nearby.
The doctor said, “Maybe it’s post-traumatic stress disorder, temporary amnesia, but he should recover after some time.”
Huo Tingdong asked, “Did he have any head injuries?”
The doctor responded, “Mr. Huo, rest assured, we have done a comprehensive and meticulous examination for the young master, there’s nothing serious anymore, he can be discharged at any time.”
Han stared blankly at Huo Tingdong; clearly, he remembered nothing at all, not even how he ended up in the hospital, his gaze seemed to silently ask: Why is he here? Was he sick?
“Go home…” Han gently tugged at Huo Tingdong’s sleeve.
He didn’t like the hospital; he wanted to go home.
Seeing that he really couldn’t remember, Huo Tingdong didn’t press further and decided to take the kid home first, and wait for Mo Ke’s investigation results.
Huo Tingdong stood up and said to the doctor, “Please process the discharge procedures, we’ll leave tonight.”
The doctor hesitated for a moment, then nodded, “Okay, I’ll handle it right away.”
…
Meanwhile.
Windsor High School surveillance room.
The lights were on all night.
Mo Ke, with eyes red and strained, was retrieving the surveillance footage from around Windsor High School frame by frame.
Windsor High School had comprehensive surveillance, but there were still some blind spots missing some footage.
However, those missing parts were crucial.
The surveillance showed that at the time of dismissal, Han was packing his bag in the classroom; a Nanny came in once, sorted his bag, and then took his hand to leave.
But he insisted on staying, seemingly waiting for someone, probably waiting for Momo.
Then suddenly, he heard something, ran out of the classroom, and towards the end of the corridor.
The footage from a camera facing the corridor showed that a few minutes later, Han hurriedly ran in one direction and then completely disappeared from the surveillance area.
Switching to the swimming pool’s surveillance, until the incident, no one had entered or left through the main door of the surveillance room.
But Mo Ke knew that the swimming pool had another entrance, not just the main door, and it was generally only open to the cleaning staff and hardly known by students.
This was strange.
Exactly how Han got to the swimming pool and how he drowned — the truth was like a stone sinking into the sea.
Mo Ke repeatedly inquired, “Is all the video footage here?” He was concerned that Windsor High School, to absolve themselves of responsibility, might have edited the surveillance footage.
The person in the control center assured, “Everything is here.”
Mo Ke said, “Understood.”
He stood up and returned a call to Huo Tingdong.
“Mr. Huo, I had Windsor High School’s staff retrieve all surveillance footage around the time of the incident, and found nothing suspicious.”
Huo Tingdong asked, “Did you find out how Han ended up at the swimming pool?”
Mo Ke answered, “No.”
Huo Tingdong said, “Understood.”
Mo Ke said, “Mr. Huo, I will continue to investigate this matter until the truth is unearthed.” Even if Han went to the swimming pool on his own, Mo Ke would find evidence to support it.
Otherwise, considering the gravity of the incident that occurred at Windsor High School involving Han, whether it was an accident or deliberate, Windsor High School could not shirk responsibility.
Ending the call, Huo Tingdong walked to the room door.
Tonight, Han, Lin Qi, and Momo were sleeping together. Lin Qi took a bath and then put Han to bed, especially since he had drowned, and in the middle of the night, Han coughed severely, Lin Qi soothed his chest, somewhat worried Han might have a lung infection.
But since the doctor said Han was alright, there should be no issue.
To take care of Han, Lin Qi stayed up all night.
However, she wasn’t the only one who had a sleepless night.
Mo Ke had just left the school when the surveillance room staff immediately made a call to the Fang Family.
Mrs. Fang picked up the phone, nervously asking, “How did it go? Is the Huo Family pursuing it?”
The person from the surveillance room answered, “Mr. Huo’s assistant came to investigate, but fortunately, we had already trimmed the key video footage before they arrived, and they couldn’t identify anything.”
After the incident, given Han’s particularly precious and special identity, Windsor High School began investigating immediately, retrieving surveillance records.
But unexpectedly, the investigation revealed startling information.
The surveillance showed, it was Fang Heng who led Han to the swimming pool.
And Fang Heng was Mrs. Fang’s beloved younger son.
Although the two children didn’t appear together in any single surveillance frame, if the frames were pieced together through the timeline, it could be seen that Fang Heng apparently said something to Han in the corridor that made Han nervously run towards Fang Heng’s direction.
Fang Heng ran ahead, and Han followed him, both children running one after the other toward the swimming pool, not seeming like they were playing or joking around.
Fang Heng ran into a passage that the cleaning staff had forgotten to lock, and Han followed him in, running all the way into the swimming pool.
The surveillance inside the swimming pool also had blind spots, thus it couldn’t fully capture what happened inside.
Later, only Fang Heng walked out of the swimming pool, and afterward, Han was discovered drowning in the pool; what exactly happened in between remains unknown, with no footage capturing the event, but…
This incident must be related to Fang Heng.
How could this be?!
Upon hearing this firsthand information, Mrs. Fang, worried the Huo Family would trace it back to them, immediately urgently instructed her staff to edit the surveillance to cut out the crucial parts.
If the Huo Family found out that Han’s mishap was related to her son, implicating the entire Fang Family, it would be a disaster they couldn’t escape.
After handling it, Mrs. Fang returned home, trying to act as usual, but was restless.
Fang Heng also seemed guilty, immediately going back to his study upon returning home and uncharacteristically began to seriously do his homework. Mrs. Fang repeatedly questioned what exactly happened in the swimming pool at the time, but Fang Heng stubbornly refused to speak.
What do you think?
