The afternoon sun gradually descended, casting an orange hue as its rays slanted across the garden.
A gentle breeze rustled through the flowers and grass, accompanied by a deep, slightly hoarse voice:
"Twenty years later, I arrived at the home of the victim’s spouse, who was the husband of the dismembered wife. I discovered some clues that confirmed this house as the crime scene where the victim was dismembered."
A trembling voice interrupted, "Second Brother, aren’t you afraid?"
The goose quivered and stammered, "Ga!" Yes, yes, very terrifying!
"I’m not afraid. The killer cannot overpower me."
"Wow, Second Brother, you’re amazing!"
"Ann can be just as amazing as me! Where was I?"
"The crime scene...."
"Yes, the crime scene... The killer is extremely cruel. He first strangled the victim with hemp rope, and unbelievably, he turned that very rope into a swing, which he placed on the balcony. The murder weapon was visible day and night! You can imagine how twisted this killer’s mind is!"
As Qin Yanyi entered the garden, he felt a chilling breeze and overheard the conversation, leaving him speechless.
Following the source of the dialogue, he bypassed several clusters of flowers and finally spotted Ann and his Fourth Brother, and a trembling big white goose in a shaded area.
The trio of siblings and the goose huddled together, with the elder one recounting his investigative experiences, resembling a terrifying blend of reality and fiction.
Qin Yanyi strode towards them, interrupting his Sixth Brother’s storytelling, "Qin Niexun, it’s not the killer who’s twisted, it’s you! How could you tell Ann such stories?"
As soon as he spoke, the siblings and the goose were startled, turning their heads in unison to look at him.
Qin Sui’an, who had excellent hearing, was completely absorbed in her Eldest Brother’s story and hadn’t noticed anyone approaching them.
Upon recognizing the familiar figure of her Second Brother, she immediately breathed a sigh of relief, patting her little belly, "So it’s Second Brother. Ann thought the twisted killer had come."
The big white goose also let out a breath, "Ga..."
This goose also thought the twisted killer had arrived.
It was too frightening!
Qin Niexun comfortingly patted Ann’s back and said, "Ann, don’t be afraid. The twisted killer has already been sentenced to death, scheduled for next month."
"Qin Niexun!" Qin Yanyi furrowed his brows forcefully.
"Why are you still talking about this?" Can’t you see how pale Ann has become from fright?
Qin Niexun replied seriously, "Second Brother, it’s nothing. The killer has already been apprehended."
Qin Yanyi extended his hands, embracing Ann from his chest, and first checked her breathing, then carefully observed her eyes, gently placing his hand on her wrist to check her pulse.
Fortunately, she was only slightly startled, with an elevated heart rate.
A little rest would suffice.
Qin Yanyi gently rubbed her small head and spoke in a tender voice, "Ann is still young. Let’s not listen to such stories for now."
Qin Niexun retorted sternly, "Second Brother, these are not just stories; they are my investigative experiences."
Qin Yanyi’s cold gaze pierced through him.
"All the cases you handle are gruesome and abnormal. They are not suitable for Ann to hear. If you ever want to share your investigative experiences, choose something more normal."
Pausing for a moment, Qin Yanyi changed his tone, his expression stern, "No, you are not allowed to tell Ann about your investigative experiences anymore."
None of the cases handled by his Sixth Brother were normal!
Qin Niexun pondered over the cases he had worked on and realized that each one was indeed quite twisted.
He sighed with regret, realizing he could no longer share his investigative experiences with Ann.
Qin Sui’an immediately spoke in a childish voice, "When Ann grows up, Ann will be able to listen!"
After saying this, Qin Sui’an looked at her Second Brother with earnestness in her round eyes, "Second Brother, at what age can Ann listen to your investigative experiences?"
"Well."
Qin Yanyi pondered for a moment, considering for a few seconds before answering cautiously, "When Ann turns eighteen, she can listen."
"Eighteen."
Qin Sui’an widened her small mouth in astonishment, counting on her fingers, "Ann is only three and a half years old now, so there are still fourteen and a half years to go!"
Qin Niexun readily agreed, "All right, after fourteen and a half years, I will share my investigative experiences with Ann."
As Qin Yanyi carried Ann and prepared to leave, he caught a glimpse of the trembling big white goose still crouching in place.
He asked, "Is this goose all right?"
Qin Niexun casually replied, "Second Brother, aren’t you a doctor? Take a look at it."
Qin Yanyi glanced at him speechlessly, "I am a doctor, not a veterinarian."
"But both have the word ’doctor’ in them," Qin Niexun muttered in confusion.
In his view, there wasn’t much difference between the two.
"You..."
Qin Yanyi considered using the term "straight man" to scold his Sixth Brother for the first time.
He held back and turned to instruct the nearest bodyguard, saying, "Go and fetch a veterinarian."
Qin Niexun squatted down, looking at the big white goose, "Why are you still excited?"
The big white goose weakly retorted, "Ga!" Stupid humans! You scared me!
"Don’t get excited. I won’t share my investigative experiences anymore. I’ll wait until Ann turns eighteen," Qin Niexun said, patting it twice.
The big white goose: ... Foolish, stupid humans!
As Qin Yanyi carried Ann back to the villa, Qin Lvzheng had just woken up and hurriedly ran downstairs, coincidentally meeting them.
Qin Lvzheng breathed a sigh of relief, "I slept too deeply. I didn’t even notice when Ann woke up."
Qin Yanyi scrutinized him from head to toe, finally concluding, "Third Brother, you should ensure enough sleep. Your liver fire is excessive. I’ll prescribe some medicine for you to regulate your body for a couple of days."
"Okay, thank you, Second Brother," Qin Lvzhengoz
In the past few days, he was occupied with official matters, enduring excessive fatigue.
Recently, he has been sleeping deeply, impervious to even the slightest disturbance.
He didn’t even notice when Ann left the room.
Qin Niexun entered the villa a few steps behind, overhearing their conversation.
He turned to his Second Brother and inquired, "Second Brother, what about me? Could you also prescribe some medicine for me to regulate my condition?"
Qin Yanyi’s gaze shifted toward his Fourth Brother, his anger ignited by the thought of his earlier gruesome and terrifying tale to Ann.
"As for you..."
