After Sarah got dressed, she decided to go see Mary and check on her, as soon as she got out of the room, she bumped into someone and apologized to him, but she was worried about his suspicious appearance. So, she quickly went to Mr. Dan's room, saying: Mr. Dan! Are you well? Did someone enter your room?
He nodded negatively, and her eyes widened in concern and fear. He asked her: What is the matter, miss? Are you fine?
She went back with worried steps: Don't get out of here, stay where you are!
And she quickly went to Mary's room, opened the door and found her in pain. She rushed to the glutathione and quickly removed it, calling out: Nurse! Help! is there anyone?!
The nurse entered and rushed to her first aid as soon as she saw this condition and pressed the button to call the doctor, and they rushed her into the operating room.
She waited outside praying for her to be fine, the detectives arrived, and Mark approached: Sarah! What happened?
Jan: When did she enter the operating room?
She replied: "Just now! The nurse said that she had a heart attack."
Mark: Have you seen anyone suspicious or acting weird?
Jan: Or did someone go into her room?
She answered: I met a suspicious man who was trying to avoid people, so I ran to Mr. Dan, and Mary, then I found her in that condition.
Jan to Mark: Stay here, I'll go check the security cameras.
Mark: Let me know if you see him!
Then he turned to her and said: Well, done.
She sighed and said, "I just hope she'll be fine."
Mark remembered something and then called the captain: Can you do a background check at the capital hospital?
The captain: All right, I'll give the phone to Zhao.
They listened to the call and Zhao answered, "Capital Hospital is currently under the management of Dr. Michael. He's a 50-year-old cardiovascular surgeon."
He added: Received many prizes and rewards.
Mark grumbled: Yeah, Yeah, we've seen those awards... Can you confirm if he has a relationship with SJ Construction? Because we found out that he has received funding to study abroad for his major from SJ Construction.
Zhao looked at his device a little and then replied: That's right, SJ Construction funded Dr. Michael to obtain a specialty certificate from the United States in 2000.
Then he added: The Capital Hospital is one of the main hospitals that provide medical services to Steve companies and its branches, Capital Hospital receives funding from SJ Construction Company, estimated at about 100 million baht per year. From this information, I think that SJ Construction and Capital Hospital have a connection.
She mumbled, "Year 2000!"
The commander said, "Steve must have already known that she was here, that's why he ordered to kill her. Everyone in the hospital might be his accomplices, so be careful."
He ended the call and then she said: He's been running his company for a long time.
Mark: Yeah, that explains his domination of all areas.
Sarah remembered something and said, "This reminds me of what my boss, Daniel, said!" He said my mom was working on a private case involving a powerful man who abused his power.
He asked: Could it be him?
She replied: I don't know, but I'll talk to my boss to find out more.
As soon as Jan came, the doctor came out saying: "We were able to control the situation, but she will be transferred to the I.C.U so that we can closely monitor her condition."
He turned around and said to the staff: Come on, move the patient.
Mark stopped them, saying, "Mr. Michael, let me be clear, if something happens to her, it will be your end!"
He stared at him for a few seconds, then the doctor left, and they continued their way. Jan came forward: Sarah You're right, I saw that person enter Mary's room.
Sarah: We can't leave her here with them, it's dangerous.
Jan: He knew she was here, what do we do now?
Mark: We need to get Mr. Dan and Mary out of here, and take them to another hospital, out of Steve's reach.
Jan: I sent them a picture of that guy.
Sarah: I'll go to Mr. Dan and help him out.
Mark: Alright, and we'll go get Mary.
They tried to stop them, of course, but because her guardian is here, they had to agree to take her out, Doctor Michael approaches the window, watching the detectives transport Mary and her father. He pulled out his phone and said, "Mr. Steve, things are out of our control. Mary and her father are no longer in the hospital."
He smiled mischievously and said, "It's okay, the ball is already in my court."
Monday, 11th May
At the police station, everyone was doing their job and trying to get all the evidence needed to catch Steve. While they were holding a meeting in the room, one of the officers entered and said: Commander Lawan! There are people who confiscate your files and devices!
Shocked by the news, they rushed to their offices to find a group of people putting all the files that fall under their hands in the boxes and dismantling the devices. The team members came forward to prevent them from taking their things.
The Commander asked one of them: Who are you?!
Answer: We have an order to investigate corruption within the first unit of criminal offenses. We have evidence of bribery and professional misconduct. This is a letter from the National Anti-Corruption Committee Center.
Mark shouted: You can't confiscate our reports based on baseless accusations!
Then a man in a suit confidently entered and said: To verify all the facts, all records must be confiscated to prevent their destruction or loss because they may contain evidence implicating the perpetrators. There's no need to make a fuss about it, your police officers so behave like this, as for your claim that you were falsely accused, I'll investigate it myself.
Jan to him: And you are...
Answer: Special Investigations Department, Jad, the Special Litigation Prosecutor from the National Anti-Corruption Committee.
The Commander said: Wait, please, why don't we discuss this, what do you want?
He said: My men have already answered your question with an official letter. It will not take more than five minutes; I apologize for disturbing you during working hours.
Then the commissioner sent a request to see the commander, stood in front of him and then said: Until the investigations are completed, your team is temporarily dismissed from work.
He furrowed his eyebrows, then said, "I would not be surprised if you too, were involved in this, Commissioner."
He stared at him in astonishment, then said: That's all. you can go now.
They all gathered at Jan's house to discuss the situation. The commander said: They have tightened the screws on us. The investigations will not end after a long time.
Sarah: Did you see the evidence that Mr. Dan hid?
Mark turned to her: Yes, but...
Zhao: It was empty.
She wondered: Empty! But why... Oh my God! Don't say he cheated on us too!
Mark smiled: No, he did not deceive us, he deceived them.
She asked: Did he expect this to happen?
Jan: It's possible. No wonder I found it strange when he told us about it.
Zhao: So, where's the original?
Mr. Dan came out of the room, saying I sent it to Mrs. James.
Everyone turned to him in amazement, and she said: Mrs. James? my mother!
He nodded, then joined them and sat down on the sofa. She said in amazement: You know what happened to my mother?!
He replied: Yes, she was investigating the case of an influential businessman who had suspicious business in her country and ended up finding out that the one she was chasing was her husband. The same man who lives with her under the same roof.
Mark: You were at Steve's Health Center; how did you manage to contact Mrs. James?
He replied: I managed to steal the phone of one of the nurses, so I was able to communicate with her every night, and no one knew that I was awake.
Sarah: Did you tell my mom the truth about my dad... I mean, Steve?
He said, "Yes, I didn't want to implicate her in all this, because I know what he is capable of, cuz I've tried it before."
She looked at him anxiously: Are you saying that my mother's accident was staged?
Reply: That... Certainly, she knew a lot about him, and this would threaten his personal interests.
She stared at the floor with blank expressions. Then Jan came forward: Don't you think he's already got the original evidence?
Mark: I don't think so, if he really got it, he wouldn't have taken this step and sent a prosecutor to confiscate our things.
Zhao: But what if Mr. Dan is right and he succeeds in hiding the truth. Then he will win the election, and we can do nothing because of his influence and pressure on the subordinates.
She raised her eyes and said: The fourth authority!
Everyone was astonished, and the Commander said: "The fourth authority? what do you mean?"
She replied: He can control everyone, but the fourth authority is much stronger than him. If he is exposed to public and directly, the world will be able to see him for what he is, and then he will lose his place in the elections and will not find a place to escape to.
Jan: Alright, how do you intend to do this?
She replied, "Maybe you forgot, but I am a crime journalist. My job is to expose these criminals. I'll ask for help. we will expose his crimes in front of everyone."
