Chapter 417 Confession

"Can't I just come back?" Bai Mengfei suppressed her nervousness and mustered her courage to ask, her eyes revealing a hint of determination.

For a moment, Qi Han was speechless and had no words to say. He simply nodded slightly, which was considered as acknowledging Bai Mengfei's statement.

"Since it's possible, then so be it!" Bai Mengfei walked slowly closer, her eyes sharp as she stared intently at Qi Han. "Actually, I returned two days ago, and I overheard your conversation that day!"

Upon hearing this, Qi Han's face turned deathly pale, and her eyes began to dart around in panic. She instinctively avoided Bai Mengfei's gaze, unable to meet her eyes.

"Did you already know that the murderer of Shengyang was Linghu Bin?" Bai Mengfei questioned mercilessly, her tone carrying an unquestionable authority.

Qi Han fell silent, head down, not uttering a word.

Seeing this, Bai Mengfei reached out her right hand, gently pinched Qi Han's chin, and slowly applied force to make her turn her head and look directly into her eyes.

"Look me in the eyes and tell me!" Bai Mengfei said solemnly, enunciating each word clearly, "Did Linghu Bin kill your husband, Shengyang?"

Qi Han twisted her head slightly, her brows furrowed, and a look of pain on her face. She said, "Don't ask me! I don't know! Let go! I really don't know!"

"Hmph!" Bai Mengfei angrily shoved Qi Han's chin away and said through gritted teeth, "She actually conspired with outsiders to murder her own husband!"

Qi Han immediately retorted, "I didn't! I really didn't participate!"

"You still dare to say you didn't?" Bai Mengfei's eyes were filled with suspicion and anger.

"Yes, I really had no idea before, I swear I wasn't involved!" Qi Han said urgently, her eyes revealing a hint of panic and innocence.

Bai Mengfei lowered her head, lost in thought for a moment. After a while, she raised her head, her gaze fixed on Qi Han again, and asked, "So now you know, right?"

Qi Han pondered for a moment before slowly saying, "I know he did it, but I won't tell you, nor will I admit it. Don't expect me to be a witness!"

"I already have evidence of Linghu Bin's crimes, and Captain Zhao and his team are on their way. Even if you don't testify, he won't escape the law!" Bai Mengfei's tone was firm and full of confidence. "Besides, you've also committed the crime of harboring a criminal!"

Upon hearing this, Qi Han pondered to himself, a hint of hesitation appearing on his face.

Just then, Bai Mengfei began to walk around the room, her sharp eyes searching for possible evidence.

As she walked, she noticed that the color of a red brick on the ground was somewhat unusual. So, she slowly squatted down, took out a UV pen from her pocket, and shone it on the red brick.

Upon closer inspection, she discovered a problem from the color: the brick had been stained with blood, and the area was quite large!

She turned sharply to Qi Han and demanded, "There was a lot of blood here not long ago. Did Linghu Bin kill someone here? Don't tell me you know nothing!"

"I..." Qi Han hesitated for a moment, but finally said, "Okay, I know."

Bai Mengfei raised her head and carefully examined Qi Han's expression, trying to judge from her expression whether she was lying.

Qi Han thought for a moment and said, "I can tell you, but do I have to go to jail with him?"

“If you are willing to confess and tell the police about all his crimes, and try to get leniency, then you won’t have too much of a problem,” Bai Mengfei said confidently.

Qi Han nodded slightly and said, "Alright, then I'll tell you. Actually, after I came here with you, I found out that he was the one who did all of this. From Li Zhijie and his girlfriend to my husband Shengyang, everything was meticulously planned by him!"

"What exactly happened? Explain clearly!" Bai Mengfei's expression was serious, her eyes revealing an eager thirst for knowledge.

Qi Han then confessed, "After I came here, on the very day I disappeared, he told me everything. That's right, I didn't disappear; he took me away. Everything about the curse before was just as you guessed. He said he didn't want me to suffer, so..."

As she finished speaking, Qi Han's voice grew softer and softer until she gradually fell silent.

Bai Mengfei pondered for a moment, then pressed for an answer: "So what?"

"So he killed all those people and created the illusion of the 'Death Triangle' curse!" Qi Han gritted her teeth and revealed the truth.

"Oh!" Bai Mengfei nodded slightly, indicating her understanding. "Then what about these bloodstains?"

“This blood belonged to a security guard. That day, the guard came to him asking for money, and the two got into an argument, during which he accidentally killed the man. The body has already been buried in the morgue behind here,” Qi Han explained.

Bai Mengfei knew about the so-called "corpse-dissolving ground" because the geology there contained strong alkalis or acids, which would corrode and dissolve a corpse buried there. However, she didn't reveal this immediately, but instead quietly stared at Qi Han, observing her expression to determine if she was lying.

To convince Bai Mengfei of her words, Qi Han pulled a small box from under the bed, opened it, and took out a jar of medicine.

Bai Mengfei took the jar of unknown medicine, carefully poured some into her palm, and examined it closely. Then, she gently sniffed it and immediately recognized it: "This medicine is scopolamine!" After saying that, she turned her head in surprise to look at Qi Han.

Qi Han shook her head helplessly, indicating that she did not know, and said, "I only know that he looks at this box every night and often takes out this jar of medicine, as if he is considering whether to use it. I remember one night, he even wanted me to take the medicine, but I didn't dare to take it. I said I didn't know what kind of medicine it was and I didn't dare to take it casually."

“Yes, you did the right thing. This drug can cause hallucinations and, in severe cases, mental illness, similar to the effects of atropine,” Bai Mengfei explained. “Moreover, we detected traces of this drug in both your husband and the previous female victim.”

Qi Han nodded slightly and said, "He did tell me these things, but he didn't tell me what kind of medicine it was, and he always told me not to overthink it."

Upon hearing this, Bai Mengfei immediately analyzed, "He's definitely hiding something from you, or he's lying to you!"

"Really?" Qi Han frowned and said, "He even told me about the murder he committed, so he shouldn't be hiding anything anymore. What makes you think he's lying to me or hiding something from me?"

“Because of my intuition,” Bai Mengfei said firmly.

Qi Han said "Oh", thought for a while, and then said, "Okay, it doesn't matter whether he's still hiding anything from me or not. To be honest, I've been living in fear ever since I found out he was a murderer. This is for the best. Although I've lost someone I once loved, at least I can have peace of mind. It's also a way of giving an explanation to those he killed and to my deceased husband."

As soon as she finished speaking, Bai Mengfei's phone rang. It was a call from Xiang Yuntian.

"Hey, why haven't you answered your phone these past few days?" Xiang Yuntian's voice revealed a hint of anxiety and concern.

Bai Mengfei hurriedly explained, "Because I've been investigating a case these past two days, I put my phone on silent mode."

"Okay, Zhao and I have arrived now." Xiang Yuntian was still very concerned about Bai Mengfei. "Where are you now? I'll come find you."

Bai Mengfei said without hesitation, "I'm with Linghu Bin now. Do you remember the way? Bring Captain Zhao and the others with you!"
