Qin Suisui was fair-faced with rosy cheeks and a graceful figure, but it was a pity she had quite a mouth on her.
When the storm came and the Qin family was about to be purged as capitalists,...
Chapter 201 The Scent of Human Mating
Qin Suisui arrived at the office, locked the door, turned around and went into the space, only then did her heartbeat calm down a little.
She hurriedly took out a handful of qi-tonifying and spirit-boosting pills from the medicine cabinet, forced herself to swallow them, and then drank a large bowl of ginseng chicken soup cooked with water from the stream in her space. Feeling that there was something in her stomach, she felt much better and called Dahuang over.
"Big Yellow, are you sure you didn't smell something wrong?"
Big Yellow shook its fluffy head vigorously a few times and gestured with its paws: "That's right! That's the taste!"
Perhaps because the space was connected to her consciousness, Qin Suisui unexpectedly discovered after the space upgrade that she seemed to be able to understand the meaning expressed by Dahuang and Dahei more and more, and sometimes she could even sense the two little ones in the space calling her.
That's right. Back this morning, when Aunt Tang had her accident and was taken away by the ambulance, Qin Suisui subconsciously walked towards their family's small wooden house in the afternoon. When she stood outside the door, she looked around and, under the cover of an umbrella, briefly took Da Huang out of the space for a while.
Big Yellow told her that there was a scent left by humans after mating in that little cabin.
The word "rhubarb" is an animal, and the choice of words is very precise and venomous.
Human mating.
The residential compound is mostly inhabited by married couples or families; they usually mate at home. Who would brave the rain to come to this abandoned wooden hut to mate?
It can only be an affair.
So the story goes like this: for some unknown reason, when Mrs. Tang was taking a walk in the afternoon at his family's cabin, she unexpectedly stumbled upon people in the family compound having an affair.
This person was most likely someone she knew, or even someone she was familiar with.
So, in a panic, the man poisoned her, creating the illusion that she had tripped and fallen.
That's right. When Qin Suisui was delivering Tang's baby, she could tell that Tang's bleeding was not due to an accidental fall, but rather to fainting caused by poisoning, which led to an unstable pregnancy and subsequent bleeding.
Therefore, Qin Suisui deduced that this person was someone Tang's sister-in-law knew or was familiar with. After being discovered by Tang's sister-in-law during their affair, the other person hurriedly chased after her, wanting to explain and perhaps asking Tang's sister-in-law to keep it a secret. It was during this moment that Tang's sister-in-law was distracted and secretly poisoned her.
Besides the "pleasure powder," Qin Suisui also found some musk residue on Sister Tang's body!
That's right, it's the kind of musk that often appears in palace dramas. Just a little bit can cause a woman in early pregnancy to miscarry, and a woman in late pregnancy is also prone to premature birth or stillbirth.
The other party clearly intended to kill Tang's wife and her unborn child, so they used an extremely high amount of musk, which is why Tang's wife quickly felt dizzy and then fell to the ground, bleeding heavily.
But the other party didn't know, and even Sister Tang herself didn't know, that the medicine she was giving Sister Tang to nourish her body also contained some antidote ingredients. These antidotes wouldn't affect her body; in fact, they could even strengthen her body when she was healthy, and they could also counteract some of the toxicity when she was poisoned.
So Sister Tang didn't die on the spot; she even made it to the hospital and, with Qin Suisui's help, successfully gave birth to her child.
When she will wake up depends on her physical condition.
However, Qin Suisui had instructed Guo Gang beforehand not to reveal that she had woken up.
She always felt that this matter might be aimed at her. The other party was using the lives of Sister Tang and her child to force her to take action, and she had no choice but to accept the challenge. However, now her medical skills might not be able to be hidden.
Or perhaps, Tang's misfortune was also caused by her.
She suddenly realized what Dr. Zhao meant by his last words; perhaps, he had never truly dispelled his suspicions about her.
"I'm not mistaken! It's that person's scent!"
Da Huang was still jumping around trying to explain, but Qin Suisui's heart had already turned cold.
If the person in the cabin really is Sister-in-law Tu, then the person having an affair with her can only be her brother-in-law, Shen Jian.
Qin Suisui couldn't think of anyone else besides this person.
Recalling the way Tu's sister-in-law and Shen Jian talked when she visited Tu's sister-in-law's house a few days ago, and the way they looked when she ran into them at the state-run restaurant, she felt something was off at the time. Now, thinking back, the answer after eliminating all the impossibilities might just be the real answer.
Sister Tu really was having an affair with her brother-in-law. When the two were having an affair in the cabin, they were discovered by Sister Tang. Breaking up a military marriage was punishable by death, so the two decided to go all the way and poison Sister Tang.
So Shen Jian is related to "Pleasure Powder," which means he is connected to Japanese spies!
Qin Suisui suddenly remembered the book he had been reading that day. She hadn't seen the title clearly, but she had roughly guessed it. The book was related to mechanical manufacturing. Aunt Tu had also mentioned that her brother-in-law worked in a machinery factory as a technician.
When Qin Suisui realized this, she felt a chill run down her spine.
"Knock knock knock," just then, someone knocked on the office door from the outside.
It was a little past two in the afternoon, and the rain was pouring down outside. There were hardly any people in the corridor. Qin Suisui heard the sudden knocking on the door and suddenly remembered the appearance of Shen Jian that she had seen at Aunt Tu's house that day. Her body trembled involuntarily.
She was determined not to leave the space, nor to respond, pretending that no one was inside.
But the next second, an unfamiliar female voice rang out: "Is Comrade Qin inside? A colleague surnamed Guo from the obstetrics department asked me to come and find you. She wants to know if a little boy named Zan Zan is with you?"
Perhaps because they hadn't heard any movement inside, the people outside assumed she was no longer there and left, muttering amongst themselves.
Thumbs up?
ZanZan is missing?
She entrusted Zanzan to Guo Gang because there were several guards outside Tang's hospital room. She had just finished acupuncture and was very weak. Since she sensed a conspiracy, she naturally couldn't let her child take the risk, so she entrusted him to Guo Gang.
She was somewhat anxious, but remained vigilant. She first let Dahuang out of the space, sniffed at the door to confirm that the person was really gone, and then came out of the space and walked quickly towards the maternity ward.
In the ward, Guo Gang was also extremely anxious.
"How come we can't find him anywhere? It's raining so hard, and Zan Zan is only three years old. Where could he have run off to in such a short time?"
"Search carefully! Search the hospital again!"
"We must find the child!"
Seeing Qin Suisui come over, Guo Gang looked full of self-reproach: "I'm so sorry, Suisui. Your sister-in-law hasn't woken up yet. The baby was crying just now, so I went to get some water to make formula for the baby. When I came back, Zanzan was gone."
Qin Suisui frowned: "Aren't there guards at the door?"
Guo Gang nodded: "They said Zan Zan followed me out, and they thought he went to the water dispenser room with me!"
Qin Suisui's heart skipped a beat. As early as that morning when Sister Tang had her accident, she had sensed a conspiracy. Now she was almost certain that this conspiracy was aimed at her.
After Dr. Zhao and his gang were arrested, it was as if the enemy's left and right arms had been severed, so the enemy sped up their actions. And the incident involving Sister Tang was also a test for her.
Now that Aunt Tang has survived and the baby has been born, they are almost certain that they can concoct an antidote. Or rather, they have the ability to concoct the antidote they need.
She rode her bicycle home in the rain, and when she passed the security office, she went in and made a phone call to her senior.
Thanks to the organization, the Snake Spirit Brigade had just settled in when the organization arranged for someone to call them.
When I got home, sure enough, there was a child's outfit at the door. It was Zan Zan's outfit, which I had personally taken him to the department store in town to buy a while ago.
There was also a note under the clothes: "If you want your child to live, come to this deserted island alone and don't tell anyone."
Qin Suisui sneered. As expected, they were coming for her.
Since that's the case, let's take this opportunity to resolve everything. She's really had enough of this life of constant anxiety and trepidation.
She will never be able to live a truly peaceful life unless she drags out that cockroach hiding in the shadows.
She took stock of all the poisons in the space, put on a raincoat and a straw hat, and rode her bicycle to the deserted island.
Several months have passed since her last visit to the deserted island. During a typhoon, she was stranded on the island while searching for cycad seeds. There, she unexpectedly encountered Pei Jiuyan, who was "out on official business" and was engaged in a battle of wits with a group of traitors, including Liu Yong and Liu Shao.
This deserted island was later closed off for a long time, and only recently has it reopened.
Perhaps once this matter is resolved, the deserted island will be sealed off again for a while, Qin Suisui couldn't help but think.
People who live by the sea have the utmost reverence for it, and on rainy days like this, very few people walk along the beach. Qin Suisui hardly encountered anyone along the way and landed on the island smoothly.
The rain was getting heavier and heavier. Before three o'clock, the light in the woods was as dim as it had been during that typhoon.
As soon as Qin Suisui landed on the island, she felt someone was secretly watching her.
She remained calm and continued walking deeper into the woods, following the route given to her.
As they entered the depths of the forest, the light was so dim that they could barely see anything more than two meters ahead. Qin Suisui instinctively tightened her grip on what she was holding. Suddenly, she heard a few rustling sounds behind her. Startled, she turned around and saw a person about 1.7 meters tall, dressed in a black raincoat, speaking in broken Chinese: "Miss Qin, please come with me."
Qin Suisui remained calm and turned to follow him.
The other person seemed afraid she would remember the route, so they led her around in the woods for a long time. Finally, after more than half an hour, they actually took her directly to the shore and pointed to a small boat: "Please get on the boat."
Qin Suisui was startled and blurted out instinctively, "With such heavy rain and such a small boat, aren't you afraid of something going wrong?"
The other party didn't say anything, only repeated the same sentence: "Please get on the boat."
Knowing that Zan Zan was still in the other party's hands, Qin Sui Sui did not dare to make any rash moves and could only follow the other party onto the ship.
After boarding the boat, her eyes were blindfolded. She didn't know how much time had passed before the rumbling of the speedboat finally stopped. The blindfold was removed, and Qin Suisui squinted, adjusting to the light, before she could see clearly that they were on the vast ocean, and there was a deserted island in front of them!
Unlike the deserted island they had landed on before, this isolated island looked even more desolate and cold. Against the backdrop of dark clouds on the horizon, it resembled a black box floating on the sea, waiting for her to come ashore and then swallow her up.
"Miss Qin, please!" the man in black's voice rang out again.
Suppressing her unease, Qin Suisui thought about the phone call she had made to her senior brother and the things she had left at home. Calming herself, she slowly walked towards the island.
