Zhao Guihua chimed in, "Let's get Old Man Bai back to his room first. We can worry about the rest later."
Soon, Old Man Bai was taken back to his room. Since there was no doubt about his jumping off the building, the police didn't linger.
It was actually fortunate for Bai Fendou that many people had witnessed the incident and could confirm he hadn't pushed his father. If it had just been the two of them, it would have been hard to explain, especially with the strangulation marks on his neck. But with so many witnesses and the context of the marks, the situation was clear. The police officers looked at Bai Fendou, the poor guy, shook their heads, and left.
After sending his father back to the room, the doctor reminded Bai Fendou, "You'll need to pay the hospital fees in the next couple of days."
Bai Fendou nodded, "I'll figure something out."
