Jude, standing beside them, was as anxious as a cat on a hot roof and kept rubbing his hands together.
"Mr. Nicholson! Boy, am I glad you're here!"
Jude was overjoyed when he saw Kingsley and said, "Look at this. What should we do in this situation? The patient's family is relentless, and Dr. Kramer… might get in trouble.
With a frown, Kingsley asked, "Did you call the police?"
"Yes, we did!" Jude nodded repeatedly. "The police said they would be here soon!"
"Then, where is the hospital's director?" Kingsley asked. "Why hasn't he shown up when something this huge has happened?"
Jude slapped his thigh.
"Director Arison is not in the hospital. Other doctors said that Director Arison left just over ten minutes ago, and we can't reach him."
"Just left?"
Kingsley narrowed his eyes. That seemed too coincidental.
The doctor who came to call Alice just now clearly said that the director had ordered it.
So, how could James leave first?
"Mr. Nicholson, what should we do now?" Jude was so worried that his facial features were squeezed together.
"We can't contact Director Arison, and the vice director said it wasn't his order. He told me to find Director Arison! You see, this hot potato is being passed around, and I'm the unlucky head of this department."
Kingsley ignored Jude and went to Alice instead, whispering, "Alice, what's going on?"
"I don't know..." Alice's face turned pale, and it took her a while to slowly explain. "Although I haven't had time to do an electrocardiogram, based on my experience, I can determine that his heart is fine just by using a stethoscope..."
She shook her head, and her eyes seemed confused. "But... But he suddenly died... without any warning. He just died! I don't know what happened..."
At this moment, the woman lying next to the corpse cried out hoarsely, "You don't know what happened? It's clearly because of you. Your incompetence has delayed my husband's chance of rescue. You have to take responsibility for this!"
The man next to her also said harshly, "That's right! You're a murderer! You have to pay for my brother's life. An eye for an eye!"
As soon as the words "murderer" came out, Kingsley clearly felt Alice tremble.
