He Yuzhu took Liu Lan to the hospital.

When they found Zhou Ziyi, his surgery had been completed, but he had not yet woken up.

There were two people wearing police uniforms sitting outside the door of the ward, and there was a little girl guarding Zhou Ziyi's bed in the ward.

Liu Lan rushed to Zhou Ziyi's bed excitedly, crying and pulling his hand, shouting again and again.

"Ziyi, Ziyi..."

"Ziyi, wake up quickly and don't scare mom."

After seeing Liu Lan and He Yuzhu, the little girl stood aside at a loss. Zhou Ziyi's two colleagues were also peeking at the door.

"Lanlan, don't get excited. I'll go ask the doctor about Ziyi's condition."

"Yeah." Liu Lan nodded helplessly.

He Yuzhu found Zhou Ziyi's attending physician and asked, "Doctor, can you tell me how Zhou Ziyi is doing now?"

The doctor looked at He Yuzhu and asked, "Are you a family member of the patient?"

"Yes, I'm his father." He Yuzhu nodded and replied.

"Family members of the patient, you have to be mentally prepared. Zhou Ziyi's operation went smoothly, but he is not out of danger yet. He has multiple knife wounds, and several of them almost pierced his vital organs, so he needs time to recover. As for when he can wake up, it also depends on his body's reaction and recovery speed." At this point, the doctor paused.

"However, we cannot rule out other complications or sequelae after the operation."

He Yuzhu's expression was solemn. He nodded to express his gratitude, then turned around and went back to the ward.

When Liu Lan saw He Yuzhu coming in, she immediately went to greet him, the anxiety and worry in her eyes clearly visible.

"The doctor said the operation was successful, but Ziyi still needs some time to wake up." He Yuzhu tried his best to make his voice sound calm.

Liu Lan bit her lips tightly, trying to control her emotions. She sat back down beside Zhou Ziyi's bed and gently held his hand, as if this could give him strength.

Outside the door, Zhou Ziyi's two colleagues were still wandering around waiting for him to wake up, with worry on their faces as well.

The little girl just stood there quietly, not knowing what to say to comfort Liu Lan.

"Little girl, please follow me out for a moment." He Yuzhu had noticed her a long time ago.

The little girl followed He Yuzhu out of the ward silently, but as soon as they left the ward, before He Yuzhu could even open his mouth, the little girl started crying.

"I'm sorry, uncle. Officer Zhou was stabbed like this because he was trying to protect me." The little girl bowed deeply to He Yuzhu, "I'm really sorry."

"Little girl, you don't have to blame yourself. As a policeman, Ziyi has the duty to protect you." He Yuzhu said, "It's just that I want to know more about what happened today. Could you tell me the whole process in detail?"

"Yeah." The little girl wiped her tears and took a few deep breaths before she calmed down a little.

"After get off work tonight, I walked home as usual, but as I walked, I always felt like someone was following me.

I was so scared that I walked faster and faster, and even ran. But I found that I couldn't get rid of the person who was following me.

Later, when I passed a more remote place, I was dragged in by someone. There were two of them, and they wanted to...want to do something bad to me..."

When she said this, the little girl's voice still trembled slightly. This was also a very scary experience for her.

After a short pause, she continued, "Fortunately, I was struggling and calling for help, and at this moment, Officer Zhou suddenly appeared. He tried hard to fight with the two gangsters, but the gangsters used a dirty trick and stabbed Officer Zhou.

Later, thanks to other police officers who rushed over, we were out of danger."

After listening to the little girl, He Yuzhu looked at Zhou Ziyi's colleague.

"Hello, officers. May I ask if you were the two who rushed over there?"

"Yes." One of them said, "We are sorry that we didn't arrive earlier, otherwise Ziyi wouldn't be injured so badly."

He Yuzhu shook his head. "If you two hadn't rushed over, it's hard to say whether Ziyi would still be alive now, so I should be the one to say thank you to you two."

"But what I want to ask is, did you see clearly who stabbed Ziyi?"

"Yes." Another younger policeman nodded, "They are the Zhang Sheng and Zhang Bai brothers from 14k."

"Okay, I understand." He Yuzhu smiled and nodded, "Thank you, officer."

"Ziyi's mother and I will be on guard here. Officers, and this little girl, you should go back and have a rest as well."

They were stunned for a moment, then nodded slowly and left together.

After leaving the hospital, the older policeman said to the younger policeman, "Xiao Xiang, don't talk nonsense next time. Do you know what the consequences will be if you tell Ziyi who his father is and who killed him?"

"What consequences?" The young policeman frowned and didn't think there was any problem.

"That's 14k, not something that ordinary people can mess with. You are harming their entire family..."
