Chapter 555: Whose child is it?
Bai Zhi and Zhao Sue hurriedly picked up the child and went inside the medicine shop.
“Hurry, bring me the copper basin.” Bai Zhi said to Zhao Sue.
Zhao Sue took the copper basin in the room. Because she was worried that it won’t be enough, she hurriedly went to the toy shop and brought another copper basin.
Bai Zhi put down the child on the table covered with a thin quilt, then took off her dirty clothes. Her clothes looked shabby and bigger to her size. Aside from the outer clothes, she was wearing nothing else. Her smooth and delicate skin was full of blue and purple bruises. There were some new and old scars.
Bai Zhi could no longer control the fire in her heart. She turned her head and shouted at Hu Jiumei, who wanted to leave: “Are you still a human? She is still so small, how can you do this to her?”
The Officer quickly pulled Hu Jiumei back and asked angrily: “Say, did you beat this child?”
Hu Jiumei quickly shook her head: “No, it wasn’t me. I never beat her.”
Bai Zhi raised an eyebrow, then pointed her finger to the child’s injury and asking: “Not you? Then who is it? The handmade doll?”
Hu Jiumei shouted: “That’s right, it’s the ghost doll who did it. Since I bought this doll for her, she didn’t feel any better, she became like this after playing a few days. What the hell is your doll made of?”
Bai Zhi was too lazy to argue with her now: “I will treat the child first. I will talk to you later.”
The scars on the child’s body looked scary, but it wasn’t that terrible. The most troublesome thing was the big lump in her head. She doesn’t know what did that woman used that it swelled like this. But it was definitely caused by a concussion.
Bai Zhi took out the silver needle and pierced the acupuncture points on the child’s head to dissolve the blood stasis. After pulling the needle, she gave her a taichong pill, which can relieve pain and calming down.
Then she took out a bandage and apply it to the child carefully, which should be the final step.
Bai Zhi dressed the child and took off her jacket to cover her. Then she turned to face Hu Jiumei: “You just said that after you bought her a handmade doll, the child became like this, right?”
Hu Jiumei nodded: “Yes, you can’t deny it.”
Bai Zhi walked to the door, picked up the handmade doll on the ground, and push it forward in front of Hu Jiumei. “You look carefully. Is this the handmade doll you bought?”
Hu Jiumei replied: “Of course, it’s this one. Don’t tell me you will say that it’s not something in your shop?”
Bai Zhi said: “Naturally, this is from our shop. After all, in Qingyuan Town, no else sell this handmade doll. How can I deny it?”
Hu Jiumei was happy. She grabbed the arm of the Officer and quickly said: “Did you hear that? She admitted her crime.”
Bai Zhi shook her head: “I didn’t recognize the crime. I haven’t finished talking yet.”
The Officer said: “You continue to speak.”
Bai Zhi pointed at the handmade doll in her hand and asked Hu Jiumei: “When did you buy this handmade doll? How much did you buy it?”
Suddenly, Hu Jiumei turned her eyes a few times, and hurriedly said, “I, I bought it seven days ago.”
Bai Zhi sneered inside her heart: “Seven days ago? Didn’t you say she became like this after two days?”
Hu Jiujie hurriedly responded: “It’s the second day, I remember it clearly.”
“Then, do you remember how much money you paid for this doll?” She asked with a smile.
Hu Jiumei felt that the little bitch’s smile was very strange, and she felt a chill on her back.
“I, I can’t remember it. I bought so many things that day, so how will I remember the price of this doll?”
Bai Zhi sneered: “Of course, you can’t remember. Because this doll was not bought by you at all.”
