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

Chapter 400 Fear

Bai Mengfei sensed something was amiss and asked with concern, "What happened?"

Qi Han could no longer control her emotions and burst into tears, choking out, "I just heard that my husband had an accident, is it true?" After saying that, she eagerly raised her head, looking at Bai Mengfei with hopeful eyes.

She frowned slightly, hoping that Bai Mengfei would tell her the truth.

Bai Mengfei steeled her heart, closed her eyes, and told the truth: "That's right! Your husband accidentally fell while preparing to board the high-speed train and was run over and killed. But I still believe that your husband was murdered!"

Qi Han immediately looked puzzled and frowned as she asked, "Wasn't my husband presumed to have committed suicide out of guilt? The police just called me and asked me to identify the body, but they wouldn't let me take it away. I went to sign something and then came back!"

Bai Mengfei knew this must be Zhao Fei's arrangement, and a surge of hatred welled up in her heart, her hands unconsciously clenching into fists. However, her face remained calm and composed, without revealing the slightest dissatisfaction.

"Miss Qi, let's go inside and talk this over calmly?" Bai Mengfei said in a calm tone.

Qi Han pondered for a moment, then nodded slightly and replied, "Okay."

The two then went into the house together.

Upon entering the room, Bai Mengfei felt something was amiss. All the furniture was covered with white sheets, and she couldn't help but ask, "Miss Qi, why are all these pieces of furniture covered with sheets?"

Qi Han sighed deeply and continued, "Actually, as soon as my husband left, I knew he was planning to abandon me. So I found someone to sell the house so I could leave. After all, there's nothing left here for me to miss."

Bai Mengfei quickly stepped forward, gently took her hand, and said, "But you can't leave now! Because your husband mentioned a curse to us before he died."

"What curse?"

"It originated from your locked-room mystery story. It's said that once the curse of that death triangle is triggered, a couple will die in the same way a month later. And I found that mysterious triangle symbol at the scene of your husband's death."

Qi Han panicked and said, "So, if my husband dies, then I'll be seriously injured, like that female customer Yingmei, lying in the hospital with my life hanging in the balance?"

“That’s right!” Bai Mengfei answered confidently.

Qi Han panicked and quickly grabbed Bai Mengfei's hand, asking, "What should I do now?"

Bai Mengfei pondered for a moment, then said, "Calm down first. Soon it will be a month since Li Zhijie passed away. If something really happens in the next few days, I will stay with you. Miss Qi, don't worry, I will definitely stay by your side!"

Qi Han breathed a slight sigh of relief, hugged Bai Mengfei tightly, and burst into tears.

She cried to Bai Mengfei, "I'm so scared! I don't know what's going on! Why did my husband suddenly leave? And why did he die? What will happen next?"

Finally, her body slowly slid off Bai Mengfei and collapsed onto the floor.

Seeing how pitiful she looked, Bai Mengfei knelt down, gently stroked her long hair, and softly comforted her, "It's alright, I'm here!"

That night, Bai Mengfei kept her promise and stayed to keep her company.

Qi Han, however, remained restless and suspicious, constantly looking around.

After dinner, she sat on the sofa, holding a glass full of hot water, her eyes darting around every now and then, as if worried that someone might suddenly approach.

After washing the dishes, Bai Mengfei came out and saw how frightened she was, so she went over to her.

To break the almost deathly silence, Bai Mengfei picked up the remote and turned on the TV.

No sooner had the TV been turned on than Qi Han snatched the remote and pressed the buttons to turn it off. "Don't turn it on! Listen, Zhang Ting, listen! It sounds like someone is crying and calling my name!"

Seeing Qi Han so tense, Bai Mengfei offered her her shoulder to lean on and comforted her, "It's okay, there's no one here, just the two of us. I'm a forensic doctor, and I'm also good at self-defense. Even if some bad guys try to take advantage of you, I can protect you!"

Upon hearing Bai Mengfei's words, Qi Han immediately slipped his hands under her armpits and hugged her tightly, his ten fingers gripping Bai Mengfei's clothes tightly.

Bai Mengfei didn't care, but kept comforting her and telling her not to overthink things.

Before going to bed, Qi Han still couldn't fall asleep and needed to take sleeping pills. Bai Mengfei was worried that there was something wrong with the medicine, so she took one to test it first.

Only after confirming that it was vitamin C and vitamin B6 did Bai Mengfei feel relieved enough to let her take it.

After taking the medicine, Qi Han still dared not fall asleep alone and insisted on having Bai Mengfei by her side before she would sleep.

Bai Mengfei then sat down beside her and let her hold her hand.

That night, Bai Mengfei dared not relax for a moment, keeping a close watch on the quiet surroundings.

In the middle of the night, Qi Han started talking in her sleep. She murmured, "Shengyang! Husband, husband, don't go! Husband..."

Bai Mengfei knew that she missed Shengyang too much, and couldn't help but feel a little sorry for her. So she reached out and gently brushed her hair aside, wanting to help her sleep more peacefully.

However, after parting her hair, Bai Mengfei saw a scar on her forehead. It was a fresh wound, just scabbed over, leaving a noticeable white mark.

How did this scar get there?

Bai Mengfei frowned in confusion, gently pressing her skin with her thumb to examine it carefully. It appeared to be an injury sustained within the last month.

Just as Bai Mengfei was examining him closely, Qi Han suddenly woke up, his body jerked violently, and his eyes snapped open.

Bai Mengfei quickly withdrew her hand and asked with concern, "What's wrong?"

Qi Han looked up at her, then said softly, "I think I just dreamt about my husband! He came back to me and told me not to think about him anymore."

"Hmm, maybe it really was your husband appearing in your dream. Perhaps this was his last wish? Stop thinking about him and get some sleep!" Bai Mengfei comforted her.

Qi Han suddenly burst into tears, tears streaming down her face. She said, "My husband and I have known each other for five years, and it wasn't easy for us to get to where we are today. Just a while ago, he was holding me and we were planning to have a child. I never imagined that so many things would happen in just one month!"
