The man was openly weeping like a small child . Then again, this was to be expected . Murder alone was a big enough criminal offense, yet he had tried to murder the President . This crime planted on any sane person would break them for sure . No one would want to have this crime on their shoulders, and it would ruin their future and the name of their family .
Therefore, regardless of whether he had the intention or not, this doctor's future was over . No one was able to save him, and the law would punish him severely . He had struggled through medical school to end up in this state…
The more he thought about it, the more depressed he became . Thoughts of suicide bubbled up in his mind . At that moment, the Vice President arrived .
"Go take a break, we have some question we want to ask him alone," the Vice President told the police in the room mildly .
Advertisement"Yes, sir!" Of course, the police would not dare to deny his order and left immediately .
The doctor seemed to have seen the ray of hope when he saw the Vice President . He knelt down before the Vice President and begged with despair, "Vice President, I really did not mean it, you have to believe me, I really did not intend to harm the President! Where would I find the courage to do something like that‽ I have no idea what came over me, but you have to believe me, I really did not intend to harm the President, I swear on my life! If I'm lying, then may God smite me on the spot! No, I will kill myself to repent for my sin, I have harmed the President, I deserve to die, I don't deserve to be this country's citizen, let me die!"
The doctor was obviously in shock, and he was barely making sense . His body was visibly shaking, and despair was plain on his face . For the man to have reached such a state of despair showed how deep his fear was . Witnessing him like this, they really had a hard time believing he would have the courage to assassinate the President .
Of course, they could not rule out the possibility of him acting, but if that was the case, the doctor truly deserved an Oscar .
"Get up first, tell us what happened in detail, what was on your mind before you decided to assassinate the President?" the Vice President ordered calmly . His calmness seemed to have a soothing effect on the doctor . However, he did not get up; it did not seem like he could stand up anyway .
After a deep breath, the doctor explained in his shaking voice, "To be honest, I have no idea what I was doing . That night I shouldn't even have been there, I was planning to take an early break to go home and rest . I was too tired from the continuous stream of virus patients . The hospital manager agreed to let me go home, but when I was leaving, suddenly I saw two people arguing in the corridor . They were so loud that I had to go to persuade them to stop . However, they ignored me completely, if anything, they only got louder . I was already very tired, and their argument only added to my mounting headache, after that…"
The doctor seemed to have a hard time believing what he said next, "Then, I cannot remember what happened clearly . When I gained my consciousness, I already had the scalpel in my hand and the injury was already on the President… I really have no idea why my memory would lapse and why I would end up injuring the President! Vice President, you have to believe me, if I'm lying, then may I end up in the worst layer of hell!"
The doctor swore on his life, but he himself had a hard time buying his story . Therefore, he was nervous, worried that they would not believe him .
"You mean, you heard two people arguing, lost your consciousness, and committed the assault on the President?"
