Chapter 102 Go upstairs and kill someone?
"It's just a coincidence, it's okay."
Shangguan Yue wrapped herself in the quilt, replaying the scenes she had seen in the afternoon in her mind.
The panicked crowd, the sudden explosion of fire, and the sounds of police cars and ambulances echoed throughout the streets.
Suddenly, a chill hit. The window was not closed, and the cold wind blew in from the open window. Thinking of the weather forecast that the temperature would drop in the second half of the night, Shangguan Yue quickly got up.
The hand that was about to close the window suddenly stopped.
'...Stay away from the glass.'
Qin Qinsen's voice rang out again, like a spell. Her heartstrings clenched, and Shangguan Yue retreated at a rapid speed. In her panic, her calves hit the edge of the bed, sending her falling backwards onto it.
"Bang!"
When she looked up at the sound, all she could see were curtains fluttering in the wind. Her lips were dry, her fingertips numb from nervousness, and Shangguan Yue remained lying on the bed, not daring to move closer.
It was not until she heard something heavy fall and screams downstairs that Shangguan Yue came to her senses and hurriedly turned on the ceiling light in the room.
Only half of the window was left, crumbling, with blood flowing on the remaining glass.
The taut string broke completely, and Shangguan Yue couldn't help but scream.
"...Thank you for your cooperation. We will contact you again if there is any need."
Before the police officer who was questioning them left, he said to Qin Qinsen and the other person standing nearby, "Give them some comfort. It's unfortunate that they encountered something like this."
Qin Qinsen smiled as he sent the police officer out the door, secretly thinking that he was indeed unlucky.
A murder had occurred upstairs. The victim was killed and then the body was dumped. The dump was very casual, directly out the bedroom window. Not only was blood everywhere, but it also knocked down several windows.
When Qin Qinsen received Shangguan Yue's incoherent call, he knew something was wrong.
After the day's incident, their relationship was already awkward. Calling him when things were going wrong was meaningless. But then again, she was pretty pathetic, having no friends in Hai City. It was only natural that she'd turn to him, someone who'd just been so awful, while still in shock.
So he interrupted Yun Yao who was busy doing questions and rushed over with the little girl.
It turns out that girls are more considerate.
Yun Yao added some warm water and wrapped Shangguan Yue in a blanket. She spoke softly, "Are you okay, sister? Don't be afraid. I'll be here with you tonight."
"You knew it a long time ago." Shangguan Yue held the cup, her lips pale, and her eyes stared at Qin Qinsen stubbornly.
"I only know that it will be dangerous if you get close to the glass." Qin Qinsen leaned against the wall and did not get close.
"How did you tell that?"
Shangguan Yue still didn't believe it.
There is no such thing as metaphysics in this world; it's all just psychological comfort.
Her expression was so easy to understand that even Yun Yao could tell something was amiss. "Brother Qin is a master. He's good at reading faces and predicting fortunes. Everyone he meets says he's good."
As he said this, he actually gave a thumbs up, his face full of pride.
Qin Qinsen almost laughed out loud. Why hadn't he noticed Yun Yao was so funny before? "Alright, stop teasing her. She just doesn't believe in evil."
"Are you following me..."
"I told you you're fat and you're out of breath? Why would I follow you? Follow you home, run upstairs to kill someone and then throw him down? And it has to happen when you're in the room, otherwise I wouldn't notice." Rolling his eyes, Qin Qinsen said bluntly, "You can disbelieve it, but don't make up rumors."
Shangguan Yue knew that she was in the wrong, so she lowered her head and drank some water.
The hot water entered her body, filling the gap created by the huge fear. Shangguan Yue suddenly asked, "How did you learn this? Can you teach me?"
Is this guy driven crazy?
Yun Yao stopped patting her to comfort her and looked at the person next to her who was obviously stunned.
After a long while, Qin Qinsen laughed and pointed at Shangguan Yue and called him "you" for a long time, but he couldn't say a complete sentence.
"Just tell me what the requirements are for learning this. Is there tuition? How much is it? I'll learn!" Shangguan Yue lifted the blanket, opened the drawer, and took out the bank card. "Here's my savings, about 200,000 yuan. Is it enough? If not, I'll go for more..."
Qin Qinsen made a stop gesture, signaling her to calm down.
"Don't force it if it's not meant to be. Besides, how can you be sure I'm not a liar and that everything you encountered today was just a coincidence?"
"I……"
Shangguan Yue glanced at Yun Yao who was sitting on the edge of the bed. She was obviously worried about the presence of outsiders and was reluctant to speak.
After receiving Qin Qinsen's signal, Yun Yao left the bedroom.
"That time at the company, did you help Xiao Wang catch something?"
Since then, Xiao Wang has been much quieter.
It's not that I'm quiet, but I've lost interest in gossip. Every day I either work or hang out with friends, exercising, and living a very healthy life.
Qin Qinsen did not refute, but continued to look at her calmly, as if urging her to get to the point quickly.
"You can tell faces, can you tell my mom's condition from my face? How is she now?"
Shangguan Yue’s mother?
Upon hearing this, someone's occupational disease kicked in and he subconsciously started observing.
Shangguan Yue held her breath and concentrated. The short two-minute wait made her nervous and uneasy, and her teeth kept grinding on her lower lip.
"You...have never had any contact with your biological mother."
"impossible!"
"Calm down, it's your biological mother." Qin Qinsen said calmly, "Since you asked, then I will answer. Shangguan Yue, you are twenty-five years old this year, born in the twelfth lunar month. You were stolen while still in your cradle and raised in a farmer's home. Your adoptive parents treated you as their own, but unfortunately, the good times didn't last. Your adoptive father died in a construction site accident, and your adoptive mother remarried. You became a burden, unwelcome. When you were twenty, they tricked you into returning to the village under the pretext that your adoptive mother was seriously ill. In reality, they accepted a betrothal gift of 300,000 yuan from others so that you could get married."
"Your foster mother helped you escape and told you not to go back."
So she trusted no one and didn't mind having no friends, because she could only protect herself by being alone. But she missed her mother and didn't dare to go back to that cannibalistic place.
He is indeed a poor man. He still doesn't know who he is in his life.
"No, it's impossible, you're lying."
Shangguan Yue could no longer keep her balance and fell to the ground.
Holding up the small mirror on the table, Qin Qinsen said, "Look at your appearance yourself. Don't you ever feel strange?"
Yes, she has double eyelids, but the parents in the photo both have single eyelids and bulging eyes. Not to mention the obvious features like face shape and nose, they are completely different.
"But she's really nice to me."
Shrugging his shoulders, Qin Qinsen said indifferently, "If you think so, I can't help it."
"She was really nice... Even after I had a younger brother, she didn't treat me any differently. I could go to school and didn't have to do housework or help in the fields. She even paid for me to finish college."
Sighing lightly, Qin Qinsen didn't want to hit her, but everything that happened today was just an appetizer.
After all this trouble today, Shangguan Yue's forehead was noticeably dark, and her eyes were red enough to bleed. Her aura was chaotic, her temper low. If he didn't take action...
"Your luck is filled with bad luck, and you're destined to have a romantic relationship. You can either find someone to help you out, or die on the streets. Make your choice."
The ringing of the phone cleared Shangguan Yue's messy thoughts.
[Hello? Hello! Is this Shangguan Yue? Is that you? I'm Nan Nan from next door. Your barn is on fire, and your parents are trapped inside!]
