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

Chapter 452 I am an old man

Old Yu seemed so engrossed in the moment that he forgot the time. With a smile on his face, he said, "It seems so! So if you don't leave tomorrow, you can experience my newly purchased generator and refrigerator, etc. The merchants will help me deliver them."

"Wow! That's so nice!" Han Xue's eyes were full of envy.

Old Yu nodded slightly and said with a smile, "After all, there's always a way out!"

Hearing Lao Yu's words, everyone felt a surge of warmth in their hearts, just like the cozy atmosphere in the room.

Seeing that everyone looked hungry, Lao Yu thoughtfully prepared pastries for them and even laid a carpet on the floor of the house so that everyone could sit on the floor. He also personally brewed tea for everyone.

As he brewed some fine Biluochun tea, he asked with a smile, "When I saw the four of you just now, looking so disheveled, I really wouldn't have imagined it if you hadn't told me. What exactly happened to you?"

Han Xue now completely trusted Lao Yu, so she told him the whole story.

Upon hearing this, Lao Yu panicked and asked anxiously, "So, the police will be coming here too?"

His sudden reaction seemed particularly unusual.

Bai Mengfei, filled with curiosity, asked, "What's wrong?"

Old Yu did not respond, but lowered his head, staring at the purple clay teapot in his hand, lost in deep thought.

Everyone found Lao Yu's attitude very strange and couldn't help but look at each other. After exchanging glances several times, Bai Mengfei spoke up: "Actually, this person and I are both forensic doctors."

Upon hearing this, Lao Yu appeared even more shocked. He abruptly raised his head and exclaimed in astonishment, "What? You... you're actually forensic doctors?"

“That’s right.” Bai Mengfei nodded gently.

Old Yu immediately shook his head, as if he had thought of something terrible. Then, he stood up and glanced out the window.

Seeing that the rain outside was getting heavier again, he said to everyone, "Once the rain stops tomorrow, you should leave as soon as possible. You can stay here with me tonight, and I guarantee you will be safe and sound."

After saying that, he left in a hurry without even lingering for a moment.

The four of them found Lao Yu's behavior very strange, and they looked at each other in bewilderment, but no one spoke.

"What's wrong with Lao Yu?" Xiang Yuntian asked softly.

Bai Mengfei shook her head secretly, looking puzzled, but she didn't make any wild guesses.

Han Xue stared at the pearl in her hand, her face beaming with joy.

Miao Xiaoxiao stared at the door that Lao Yu had casually closed, a hint of unease in her eyes as she began to speculate about Lao Yu's identity. After pondering for a moment, she said to everyone, "I don't think that Lao Yu is a good person."

Bai Mengfei completely agreed and nodded slightly.

Immediately afterwards, Miao Xiaoxiao said, "Perhaps we should leave here now. Lao Yu makes me feel that this place is not a good place to stay."

Bai Mengfei agreed, though she didn't say it aloud. She could tell that Han Xue and Xiang Yuntian, after their previous escape, seemed to have grown fond of the comfortable environment here and didn't want to leave.

Moreover, with the wind and rain raging outside, where could they go if they left?

For various reasons, Bai Mengfei decided to make a decision by voting, saying, "Let's decide by voting now. Those who agree to keep it, please raise your hands."

As a result, both Han Xue and Xiang Yuntian raised their hands.

All of this was within Bai Mengfei's expectations.

Bai Mengfei frowned, took a deep breath, and then asked, "And Miao Xiaoxiao, what about you?"

Miao Xiaoxiao hurriedly said to Bai Mengfei, "You know I definitely want to leave. This place is too strange, and that Lao Yu is also very suspicious."

Xiang Yuntian said, "Our clothes are soaked. If we go out in the rain again, we'll definitely catch a cold. And if what Lao Yu said is true, we might be able to take a merchant's boat and leave here tomorrow."

Bai Mengfei thought Xiang Yuntian's words made sense, nodded secretly, and said no more.

Just then, with a creak, everyone turned to look at the door. The door was slowly pushed open, and Lao Yu walked in, carrying some clothes in his hands.

"These clothes are what I traded for with pearls. They're very clean. Please change into them." With that, he put down the clothes and prepared to leave.

Bai Mengfei knew that some things had to be clarified, otherwise she would always have doubts. So she stood up and asked, "Old Yu, who exactly are you?"

When Lao Yu heard Bai Mengfei's question, he stopped and slowly turned around. He glanced at Bai Mengfei and said, "Don't ask about things you shouldn't know. But I hope you believe that I am a good person."

After saying that, he left in a hurry and closed the door behind him.

However, Lao Yu did not leave immediately, but hid outside the house to eavesdrop on the four people's conversation.

Seeing that the three girls were about to change their clothes, Xiang Yuntian turned around, closed his eyes, and said, "You guys hurry up and change, I won't watch."

Bai Mengfei trusted Xiang Yuntian completely. While changing her clothes, she said to the other two girls, "You two should change too. Based on my experience, I don't think this Lao Yu is a bad person. On the contrary, he reminds me of many victims I've met before. They were kind-hearted, but had some injustices that were hard to clear their names."

Han Xue and Miao Xiaoxiao, as Bai Mengfei's good friends, changed their clothes after hearing what she said.

After overhearing this, Lao Yu sighed inwardly, a look of relief appearing on his face.

Late at night, the four of them slept peacefully here. Han Xue and Miao Xiaoxiao, for once, had a good night's sleep and slept very soundly. Bai Mengfei, however, was not so easily trusting of others or this place. She slept lightly, secretly guarding the place and the two sleeping people, her mind still preoccupied with the missing Li Yin.

So far, they have not found any trace of Li Yin, which means that Li Yin is very likely still alive.

Xiang Yuntian, on the other hand, did not sleep at all. He sat near the door, his right hand resting on the curved wooden board, looking deep in thought.

Actually, he was protecting Bai Mengfei. In his view, Bai Mengfei was sleeping very soundly, just like Han Xue and the others, so he was worried that if anything unexpected happened, Bai Mengfei wouldn't be able to detect it.

What he didn't know was that Bai Mengfei, though seemingly asleep, was actually more awake than him, and could clearly sense any slightest movement.

Around midnight, the wind gradually stopped, and the rain lessened. The pattering rain outside turned into the sound of raindrops falling.

Just as Han Xue and Miao Xiaoxiao were sleeping even more soundly, someone arrived at the wooden village.
