A forensic doctor is reborn, sir, please don't bully me!

Chapter 407 Missing

"Oh! So that's how it is!"

Linghu Bin looked enlightened. "But I really do have an alibi."

Xiang Yuntian nodded slightly and said, "Well, it seems you're not a suspect after all." After saying that, Xiang Yuntian stood up and added, "It's getting late, we should head back."

Linghu Bin said, "It is indeed getting late. How about I talk to the village chief and offer you three rooms so you can get a good rest for the night?"

Before Xiang Yuntian and Qi Han could speak, Bai Mengfei blurted out, "Okay!" The reason she wanted to stay was because her intuition told her that Linghu Bin was not as simple as he seemed. He was definitely hiding something, and might even be lying.

Since Bai Mengfei had already said so, Xiang Yuntian and Qi Han could not offer any further opinions.

Linghu Bin persisted, "That's right, it's so late, you definitely won't be able to get a taxi. You three should stay here and rest, and I'll find you a car to take you back tomorrow."

"Okay." Bai Mengfei nodded in agreement.

Subsequently, Linghu Bin indeed found a house for the three of them to live in.

It was a two-story bungalow. Although it had been vacant for some time, it was still relatively clean and tidy because it was the village chief's house and people often came to clean it.

There were exactly three rooms in the house, but Bai Mengfei did not go back to her own room to rest. Instead, she stayed in the living room to keep Qi Han company, who was not sleepy at the moment.

"Why aren't you resting yet?" Bai Mengfei asked with concern.

Qi Han replied, "I'm not sleepy yet, so I don't want to sleep for now."

Bai Mengfei gave a soft "Oh," and then said, "Then I'll stay here with you tonight."

"Why?" Qi Han asked, puzzled.

Bai Mengfei smiled slightly and said, "Because I promised you before that I would always be with you. A person should keep their word, shouldn't they?"

Qi Han shrugged and smiled after hearing Bai Mengfei's words, saying, "It seems that's true. Then you can keep me company. Actually, to tell you, even if I go back to my room and sleep in a strange bed, I won't be able to fall asleep for a while."

After saying that, Qi Han leaned over, gently took Bai Mengfei's arm, and rested her head on her shoulder, appearing very intimate.

She stared at the low window, and suddenly said with a hint of sadness, "Now we can be sure that Linghu Bin isn't the murderer. But I don't know how to face him in the future. I admit, after Shengyang died, I did have the idea of ​​running away with Linghu Bin."

Bai Mengfei said rationally, "Then you should wait until you get through this hurdle before talking about it. Don't forget, that so-called curse hasn't been lifted yet."

Qi Han nodded gently, then said, "I know. But with you here, I feel much more at ease. By the way, don't you think it's a bit cold here?"

Bai Mengfei was a little puzzled as to why Qi Han suddenly brought up the weather. She smiled and looked at her, asking, "Why are you suddenly talking about the weather?"

"Oh dear, my thoughts tend to jump around!" Qi Han laughed. "I was just wondering, what's your relationship with that handsome forensic doctor? Is he your mentor or your lover? Why does he seem to listen to you so much?"

It seems that Qi Han is someone who easily trusts others. They've only known each other for a few days, yet she's already confided all her secrets and thoughts to Bai Mengfei; she's quite naive.

Nevertheless, Bai Mengfei still harbored some suspicions about her, wondering if she might be the murderer.

However, Bai Mengfei did not voice these thoughts, but instead replied with a smile, "He is my boyfriend."

As Bai Mengfei said this, a sense of pride welled up inside her.

"Huh?" Qi Han exclaimed in surprise, "He's your boyfriend? But judging from his attitude towards you and your attitude towards him, it feels like you two are more like a pursuer and the pursued."

Bai Mengfei explained, "No, it's just that he loves me very much, and we've already established a romantic relationship. He's very supportive and respectful of me most of the time, so he tends to go along with me."

At this moment, Qi Han leaned closer and said to herself, "Sigh, if only my husband could have been like him when he was alive. You are so lucky."

It seems that Shengyang wasn't very good to Qihan before his death.

The two chatted until late at night. Qi Han was so tired that she gently leaned on Bai Mengfei's shoulder and fell asleep.

Of course, Bai Mengfei couldn't let her stay like that all night, so she gently placed her on the wooden sofa and found a blanket to cover her up.

Bai Mengfei, however, did not want to go to sleep. She wanted to watch Qi Han more, so she sat on the armchair next to him, resting her right hand on the armrest and supporting her chin.

Looking at Qi Han sleeping peacefully, she couldn't help but feel a pang of sympathy for the woman. Of course, that was on the premise that everything she had experienced was real, and not something she had staged herself; only then would she deserve sympathy.

As she watched, Bai Mengfei unknowingly became sleepy and drifted off to sleep.

When she woke up the next day, she found that Qi Han, who should have been lying on the sofa, was gone.

Oh my god, where did Qi Han go?

Just as she was frantically searching around, Xiang Yuntian came down the stairs, muttering to himself, "It's already noon! How did we sleep for so long? Good heavens, I feel so groggy, what happened in between? I slept for over ten hours, and so soundly!"

As soon as he came downstairs, Xiang Yuntian saw Bai Mengfei searching around on the first floor, as if looking for something. Curious, he slowly walked over and asked with concern, "What are you looking for?"

Upon hearing Xiang Yuntian's voice, Bai Mengfei turned her head and told him, "Qi Han is missing! I watched her fall asleep last night, and somehow I fell asleep too. I just woke up, and all that's left on the sofa is the blanket I covered her with."

Xiang Yuntian frowned and guessed, "Could she have gone to see her old classmate Linghu Bin?"

"It's possible!" Bai Mengfei finally realized, and hurriedly turned around and rushed out the door.
