Chapter 9 — Nanny Counts Moles

He looked at Tham Nghien. "It's him." Tham Nghien's eyes were bloodshot. "You're talking nonsense." Tran Bach Xuyen laughed coldly. "At that time you said Manh Thanh's health was too weak, unable to withstand further stimulation." "You said that anyway the two children are healthy, that's it for the time being." "You signed to confirm that A0317-02 is Manh Thanh's daughter." "Then you did an appraisal, discovered it was wrong, and didn't dare to bear the consequences."I looked at Tham Nghien. The pain on his face did not look like he had been wronged. It's like the cloth covering the shame has been peeled off. My legs are soft. It turns out the chaos three years ago wasn't just a hospital accident. It's about each adult pushing responsibility back. In the end, it all fell on a child. The camera continues to run. At ten twenty-eight minutes, the man in the gray hat drove a black car and left the hospital. The license plate is rotated very clearly. I immediately sent the license plate to the police and Tan Man. A few minutes later, Tan Man called back. "False license plate." "But fifteen minutes ago, the door to your mother's house turned in a car of the same type." My eyes were dark. "Which direction?" "South of the city." "What's there?" Tan Man paused for two seconds. "Nhan An's old hospital area." I suddenly looked at Tran Bach Xuyen. Finally, a trace of panic appeared on his face. Tham Nghien rushed out of the monitoring room. I followed. Just as I arrived at the hospital door, my phone received a strange text message. This time it's a real-time photo. Tieu Man sat on an iron bed in an abandoned hospital room, holding a stuffed rabbit in his arms. Her hair was divided into two sides. Below the photo write a sentence. Don't call the police. Go to building number three of the old hospital, bring Manh Thanh's blood sample.10I stared at the photo, my first reaction was not to rush there. Instead, give the phone to Tan Man and tell her to take a photo of all the messages. Tham Nghien stood next to him and raised his hand to see. I retracted my hand, avoiding him. "Don't touch it." His hand stiffened in midair. "Thanh Thanh, Tieu Man are in their hands." "So I can't let you cause trouble." I turned around and reported the address of the old hospital to the police who had just arrived, and at the same time gave the content of the message. The text message said not to call the police. But they kidnapped my daughter. I will not risk Tieu Man's life with the reputation of a bunch of corrupt people. Police immediately contacted the city's south division. Tan Man pulled me aside. "They told you to bring a blood sample to lure you into a trap." "As long as you step in, they can use the child to force you to sign or admit some things." I looked at Tieu Man in the photo. The girl sat on the iron bed, her face pale. That stuffed rabbit is something she has to hug when she sleeps. The person who captured her had been to my mother's house and also knew what she was most afraid of and what she was most dependent on. This is not a spontaneous action. I raised my head to look at Tran Bach Xuyen. He stood at the hospital door, his face calm again. It was as if the last bit of panic had never appeared. I walked up to him. "You come with me." Tran Bach Xuyen glanced at the policeman. "Miss Manh, I'm just a doctor." "You're the only one who knows why building number three of the old hospital area can still be used." He was silent for a moment. "It's useless for me to go." "Whether it's useful or not, we'll tell you when we get there." Tham Nghien quickly spoke up. "You go too." I looked at him. "You can go, but you can't leave the sight of the scene." murder." His eyes stung. "Do you consider me a criminal now?" I didn't answer. Because I really no longer consider him my husband. Tan Man asked the hospital nurse to take a tube of my blood on the spot. When she drew blood, she videotaped the entire process, sealed it, signed it, and timed it. Then she asked the nurse to get another tube

physiological saline, making the appearance identical. I watched the two tubes go into two different sealed bags. Tan Man said: "Give the real tube to the police, take the fake tube with you." "If the other person wants to rob, give the fake tube first." I nodded. The fingertips were cold, but much steadier than before. On the way to the old hospital, I sat in the back seat of a police car. Tham Nghien sat in another car. Tran Bach Xuyen was arranged to sit in the police car. The scene outside the window gradually recedes. But in my mind are all images of Tieu Man as a child. The first time she had a fever, she held my hand and cried. The first time she knew how to call her mother, her voice was as soft as candy. She hid green vegetables she didn't like in my bowl, thinking I didn't know. No matter what was written on the assessment paper, she was still a child that I raised piece by piece. Whoever dares to take her away from me, I will risk my life with that person to the end. The old hospital area is located at the end of an old street in the south of the city. After Nhan An Hospital moved, there was only one medical examination building and three inpatient buildings left. The iron gate is patchy, the guard hut is empty. Building number three is the deepest inside. The outside of the building is covered with dry vines, and many windows are covered with wooden boards. The police car did not go straight to the door.
