Chapter 101: Pretty Widow 23: The Beautiful Widow Who Kills Her Husband
Wu Lan really didn't know how to answer this question.
Last night, he was sandwiched between Li Chensen and Li Yiche and kissed for a long time. He had no idea who left the mark on his neck.
If you look closely, you will find more than one hickey, but the color is not very dark, they are all light and will probably disappear soon.
Before going out today, he asked 2720 to help him cover up the marks with concealer, but he didn't expect that some marks still slipped through.
Wu Lan subconsciously took a small step back, looked at the ground, and whispered, "How could it be a hickey? You must be seeing things."
"It's probably a mosquito bite. Mosquitoes got into the room last night." He touched his neck, pursed his lips, and looked a little aggrieved. "You're being mean to me again."
Shen Yulin was most afraid of Wu Lan showing such an expression.
Her big, round eyes were watery, with a little red at the corners of her eyes and the tip of her nose, and her plump lips were pursed. After saying this, she looked at him quietly, without making any noise or noise, but it was so heartbreaking to see her.
Shen Yulin didn't dare to ask any more questions.
He quickly pulled his wife into his arms, touched her head, caressed her pretty face, and started coaxing her without even caring about the kiss mark.
The wife is the sky, what she says is what it is. Why should he worry about whether it is a hickey or a mosquito bite?
Even if it was a hickey, it must have been left by him.
The day before yesterday, he hugged his wife and kissed her so hard in the ward that it was normal to leave one or two kiss marks. There was no need to make a fuss.
He trusts his wife. Every time he sucks her little mouth, she would whimper and say that his kiss is the best and most comfortable. She will never go out and mess around behind his back.
His wife is so good that there will be countless people coveting her behind her back, but her heart belongs to him, and those wild men outside are not in her eyes at all.
Thinking about it this way, Shen Yulin felt that he was really not a human being. He actually dared to doubt his wife. It was really bad.
Wu Lan leaned in Shen Yulin's arms, listening to Shen Yulin's continuous gentle apologies. He was confused, but he knew that the topic of the kiss mark had been fooled away by him.
He can fool people with just two sentences. He is quite capable.
Secretly giving herself a thumbs-up, Wu Lan remembered the conversation she had just heard at the nurses' station and quickly asked, "Did anything unusual happen in the hospital yesterday?"
Shen Yulin stopped stroking his head, remembered something, his eyes darkened, and he turned to look at himself lying on the hospital bed.
"I don't know what unusual thing you mean, but someone came to this ward last night."
"Who is it?"
Shen Yulin shook his head, his voice flat and even, "I don't know him, he's a young man."
"He wandered outside the ward several times last night and sneaked in after the nurse made her rounds."
Shen Yulin recalled and gently patted Wu Lan's shoulder, telling him not to be so nervous. "As soon as he came in, he took out his phone, and I saw my photo on it. After comparing the photos, he took out a knife from his pocket."
Shen Yulin stayed in the ward all day yesterday and did not leave.
He thought he could wait for Wu Lan, but maybe because he kissed her too hard the day before, Wu Lan was angry, so she didn't come to see him yesterday.
Unable to see Wu Lan, Shen Yulin stared at his body in boredom, trying to possess it from time to time, but failed every time.
Late at night, the nurse came to make her rounds.
At that time, he noticed a young man in a hospital gown wandering in the corridor. The man seemed to have some purpose, and he would pretend to be casually observing the patients in each ward.
The nurse finished her rounds and the ward became quiet again.
At this time, the door of the ward was quietly opened and the young man came in.
Shen Yulin had been observing this person from the side. When he saw the other party take out a knife, he knew that something was wrong.
Just as the other party was about to stab, footsteps were heard in the corridor.
The man's expression suddenly became very nervous, his forehead was covered with sweat, and he waved the flashlight in his hand casually, and accidentally saw a tall man in front of him.
The figure flashed by and the man thought he was dazzled.
But at this time he was even more panicked because he had just seen the man's face, and that face looked almost exactly the same as the man lying on the hospital bed.
He was so scared that his legs went weak and he almost fell to the ground.
The footsteps in the corridor were getting closer and closer, so the man had to quickly turn off the flashlight and hide behind the bed.
After confirming that the footsteps had left, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Wiping the sweat off his face, the young man turned on the flashlight again. As he stood up, he saw Shen Yulin standing in front of him again, with his eyes lowered, looking down at him condescendingly.
This time he was so scared that he fell to the ground, the knife in his hand fell to the ground, and his face became even paler.
His eyesight seemed to be not very good. He rubbed his eyes several times and had to use a flashlight to see clearly.
"No, it's impossible. Shen, Shen Yulin, aren't you still alive?! How, how did you become a ghost?"
As if he had seen a ghost, the man looked at the person on the hospital bed, then at Shen Yulin in front of him. His heart was beating with fear, his breathing became rapid, and he rubbed his eyes in disbelief.
He remembered something and wanted to pick up the knife and stab Shen Yulin. But he was a step too slow and the knife was kicked into the corner by Shen Yulin.
Then, he saw Shen Yulin approaching him step by step, with a gloomy face as if a ghost came to take his life.
He could clearly feel the damp and cold air coming from Shen Yulin, and the hand pinching his neck was like an ice cube. He was completely unable to resist and thought he was going to die in the next second.
"No, no, I'm not trying to harm you. Every wrong has its perpetrator, every debt has its creditor, Lord. I'm just giving you money to get rid of the disaster..."
He struggled desperately, but the feeling of suffocation gradually approached, his pale face became even uglier, his eyes almost popped out and lost focus.
Suddenly, a strange buzzing sound was heard in the ward.
After feeling the force on his neck lighten, he dared not stay here any longer. After struggling to break free, he turned around and ran out, muttering "There is a ghost, there is a ghost".
"The man ran away screaming, attracting the nurses and security guards."
Wu Lan was stunned after hearing this.
He blinked at Shen Yulin and said in disbelief, "You were able to strangle him?"
Shen Yulin was originally worried that Wu Lan would think that his behavior was too rude, but when he saw that Wu Lan's focus was here, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Well, I feel like I have gained more strength these past two days, and the probability of me being able to touch real objects is much higher than before."
When he first survived as a spirit, the probability of encountering a physical object was very low. But now, he can do more.
He had also thought about the reasons, and after eliminating other impossible factors, the remaining reasons all pointed to Wu Lan.
Ever since Wu Lan could see him, he would get close to her from time to time. The more they got close, the stronger he felt.
He suspected that it was because he drank a lot of Wu Lan's water, and he felt satisfied every time after drinking it. His strength was constantly increasing, so he was able to successfully stop the man's behavior last night.
Wu Lan was a little surprised, and suddenly remembered something, and asked again: "What is that sudden buzzing sound you mentioned?"
Shen Yulin took out a cell phone he had never seen before from somewhere and said, "The man's cell phone rang yesterday, and he ran so fast that he forgot to pick it up."
"Besides, he left the knife behind."
He gestured to Wu Lan to look under the bed, where a sharp dagger was lying.
Wu Lan didn't dare touch the knife or the phone, but asked Shen Yulin to put the phone next to the knife.
He first called the housekeeper, then called the police directly, saying that he found an unknown knife and an unfamiliar mobile phone in the ward, and suspected that they were related to the previous series of cases.
The police arrived quickly, and the person who came was Officer Li, who was in charge of the case. With the intervention of the police, Wu Lan easily watched the surveillance video in the corridor.
He was sure he had never seen the young man in the surveillance video.
But Officer Li said: "Although the surveillance video is not very clear, I think this person is very similar to the person I photographed at the gas station before, both in height and build."
"We will bring back the surveillance video and do a facial recognition comparison. We will also carefully check the data on the phone and see if there are any fingerprints of the suspect on the knife."
“Mrs. Shen, thank you for the information.”
"You're welcome. Officer Li, you guys go ahead and do your work. I'm going back to the ward."
Wu Lan walked towards the ward and discussed what happened last night with Shen Yulin as she walked.
"That person said he didn't mean to kill you, which means someone hired someone to kill you." Wu Lan analyzed seriously, looking very solemn. "Given the current situation, the person who hired the killer may already know that you are still alive."
"Yeah. Probably."
Shen Yulin didn't seem to care much, as if he was not the one who was almost stabbed last night.
Shen Yulin really didn't care.
As long as he can stay with Wu Lan, it doesn't matter whether he lives or dies.
Wu Lan didn't know what Shen Yulin was thinking, but he was worried that the person behind it would make another move. After discussing with the housekeeper, he decided to secretly transfer Shen Yulin to the ward.
There was a lot going on today, and when Wu Lan got home, it was already dark outside.
Li Chensen and Li Yiche waited until Wu Lan came home before having dinner together. After dinner, the three of them sat on the sofa watching TV and chatting. The atmosphere was pretty good.
But the only people chatting were the two brothers Li Chensen and Li Yiche. Wu Lan felt a little dizzy after finishing her meal and sat on the sofa with a sleepy look on her face, listening to the two brothers talk.
Seeing that she was almost falling asleep, Wu Lan quickly went to wash her face. When she came out, she saw Li Chensen drinking coffee.
He walked over, pointed at the coffee and asked, "Can you give me a cup?"
"Just drink this. I haven't tried it yet."
"Uh-huh."
After taking the coffee from Li Chensen, Wu Lan touched the wall of the cup and found that it was a little hot, so she planned to take a small sip first.
"Ma'am, I'm sorry!!"
The coffee in his hand was accidentally knocked over by someone, and the cup of coffee was spilled directly into a potted ornamental plant.
Looking at Chang Li with an apologetic look on his face, Wu Lan was stunned for a moment, "It's okay, it's okay. Are you hurt?"
"I'm not hurt, thank you for your concern, ma'am."
"How do you do things?"
Li Chensen frowned and looked at Chang Li. He quickly pulled Wu Lan over to check on her, worried that she would be scalded by the coffee.
Fortunately, nothing happened.
Chang Li held a flower pot in one hand and explained quickly: "The housekeeper asked me to water the flowers in the living room. I didn't look at the road just now and accidentally bumped into the lady."
Noticing that the cup in Wu Lan's hand was empty, he quickly put down the flower pot, took Wu Lan's cup, and said with some trepidation: "I, I'll change you a cup of coffee now."
“I’m so sorry!”
Wu Lan was stunned for a moment as he watched Chang Li walk into the kitchen. He looked at the potted plant that had been watered with coffee, his brows furrowed, worried that the plant might not survive.
When he went to bed at night, he was still thinking about the flower pot.
Because she was always thinking about something, Wu Lan didn't sleep well and woke up several times.
When he woke up the next day, he didn't even have time to eat breakfast and hurried to check the condition of the flower pot.
Wu Lan stood in front of the potted plant and was suddenly stunned.
I saw that the potted plant that originally had bright flowers had completely withered and was emitting an unpleasant stench.
