Novice Forensic Doctor

Chapter 704: Chapter 656: Grand Finale_12

The gaunt old man looked up with efficiency and patted Xu Dayuan’s arm.

"I like Director Zhou so much, I was actually going to discuss this matter with you, but I didn’t expect you to bring it up first. So, let’s do as you suggest. There’s no need for you to handle the ash collection; someone will bring it to your room later."

Xu Dayuan waved his hand.

"Then we’ll take off, heading to the airport in an hour. Till we meet again."

"Till we meet again."

...

An hour later, at Ganzhou City Airport.

Everyone was happy to be able to go home, all of them in one piece. Zhou Ning stared out the airport’s glass windows at the bright blue sky, watching planes take off and land.

A figure slowly approached Zhou Ning from behind. Zhou Ning didn’t move, remaining in the same position, and didn’t initiate conversation.

After standing like that for a few minutes, the figure behind him rubbed his hands awkwardly and spoke:

"Boss, you know everything?"

Zhou Ning glanced at him and nodded slightly.

"Mhm."

"When did you find out?"

Zhou Ning pondered for a moment.

"Since I woke up from the coma in the hospital, I knew you were related to him. Except for the eyes, you two look too much alike. Then I learned about Zhu Xingmin from Luxi, and when Mr. Hu mentioned that Zhu Xingmin had a twin brother who also had a son, by the age, I was sure of it."

Zou Jialong pursed his lips and stared at the back of Zhou Ning’s head, vigorously rubbing his hands.

"Since you know about my identity, especially during the arrest of the hyena, when he shouted at the end, his words were true. That man really did find me, during the days you were unconscious. I thought I ran into a scam and hung up the phone.

But that man actually showed up in my room, told me a lot, said he didn’t know about my birth back then, and was unaware of how cruel my birth mother was, giving me away when I was not even a month old.

He also said that he secretly took a sample of my blood, had the DNA tested, and showed me the report, I told him to leave. Boss, I didn’t reveal any information to him, I ran out to call for someone, and he left too."

Zhou Ning turned around and smiled at Zou Jialong.

"I know."

"Then... then... you’re not going to report me?"

Zhou Ning stared at Zou Jialong.

"Report you for what? Report that you were born into the wrong body, that you shouldn’t have this DNA? The person I know is called Zou Jialong, a disciple I personally brought up. Do you disagree with this, or do you think I haven’t treated you well and want a change of workplace?"

Zou Jialong shook his head vigourously, and at this moment, his lips tightened and tears streamed down his face. He wanted to say more, but not a word came out.

The harder he tried to stop his tears, the harder he cried. Zhou Ning watched and began to smile as well.

"Boss, thank you!"

"Don’t thank me, thank yourself. Alright, it’s time to go home."

Just then, a voice came from the loudspeaker.

[Passengers of MU6591 flying to Qindao, please proceed to Gate A8 for boarding.]

Mr. Zhao called out.

"Let’s go, time to head home!"

Zhou Ning carried a red cloth-wrapped urn, which contained An Liwei’s ashes, a person who had once sent him home, and now it was Zhou Ning’s turn to take him home.

Walking towards the boarding gate, they had just lined up when they heard a series of orderly footsteps. Fang Dongsheng led a group of police officers, running towards them in formation, and gathered near Zhou Ning and his group, standing at attention. freeωebnovēl.c૦m

Xu Dayuan looked puzzled. They hadn’t informed anyone of their departure, and Ganzhou was bustling with activity. He didn’t know how Fang Dongsheng had heard the news so quickly and came over to shake hands with him.

"How did you know to come here?"

"We had to come, to see you off. So much has happened these past few days, and I didn’t expect to be suddenly appointed acting director. If you guys hadn’t left, I would have had someone to discuss this with, but... let’s not talk about that. Thank you, all of you, for your dedication to Ganzhou, and today we’re here to send off Mr. An. Although he has no children, being able to accompany Director Zhou to Qindao and be buried with his old comrades is something we’re happy about on his behalf. When I go to Qindao, I’ll visit him."

At these words, Xu Dayuan felt moved and nodded forcefully. Fang Dongsheng adjusted his uniform and shouted loudly:

"Take care, everyone. Till we meet again!

At ease, attention, salute!"
