Chapter 410 Back
Just as Bai Mengfei and Xiang Yuntian were eating, having swallowed half of their food, several men in uniforms suddenly walked over.
They claimed to be village security personnel and solemnly stated that they would take Bai Mengfei and Xiang Yuntian back to assist in the investigation.
Bai Mengfei and Xiang Yuntian, seeing that their uniforms were so neat and proper, were filled with doubt, but they both put down their chopsticks and secretly wondered what these people were up to.
After all, they are forensic doctors. These mere auxiliary police officers dared to arrest them in broad daylight without explanation, right in front of everyone. Does this really prove the saying, "Even a powerful dragon can't suppress a local snake"?
Bai Mengfei and Xiang Yuntian exchanged a glance, their eyes conveying a tacit understanding. Then, they slowly stood up, determined to see through the intentions of these security personnel.
"We now suspect you are involved in the village's missing persons cases. Please come back with us for questioning!" the leader said in a forceful tone.
Bai Mengfei couldn't help but turn her head to look at Xiang Yuntian beside her. Xiang Yuntian lowered his gaze, his heart filled with doubt, pondering what exactly was going on.
After arriving at the police station, the officers asked Bai Mengfei and Xiang Yuntian to sign two documents. Bai Mengfei and Xiang Yuntian cautiously stared at the documents, only to find that the contents were messages asking them to confess.
"Our friend Qi Han has indeed gone missing, but this has absolutely nothing to do with us!" Xiang Yuntian said righteously.
Bai Mengfei quickly chimed in, "The person is indeed missing, but it has absolutely nothing to do with us!"
However, the security personnel ignored them and stubbornly insisted, "What you need to do now is sign."
"Signing your name is equivalent to admitting guilt and surrendering yourself. Why should that be?" Bai Mengfei asked angrily.
Xiang Yuntian calmly replied, "Who told you to do this? I want to call my lawyer friend!"
“There are no telephones here!” one of them replied coldly.
Xiang Yuntian frowned and argued, "Can't I use my own phone to make the call?"
The man was silent for a moment, then slammed the pen down on the prepared statement and said firmly, "Fine, but you have to sign it first!"
"I would rather die than sign it! I don't know why you're doing this!" Xiang Yuntian frowned, his face showing strong disgust. "But your actions have already broken the law!"
The man sneered and said dismissively, "Even if you are, so what? I know you two are from big cities, but we're the ones who call the shots here!"
Bai Mengfei's eyes sharpened, revealing a piercing light, and she said without fear, "I can sue you, I can file a complaint, and I can get you all fired!"
"This little girl has a tough tongue!" A man stepped forward, his knuckles cracking as he was squeezed, his words carrying a threatening tone.
Xiang Yuntian immediately stood up, quickly shielding Bai Mengfei behind him, and asked warily, "What exactly do you want?"
The man shoved Xiang Yuntian violently, causing him to stumble and nearly fall. Bai Mengfei quickly steadied him, then turned and glared angrily at the group, shouting, "I'm going to sue you right now!"
"Try suing me first!" one of them replied dismissively.
Bai Mengfei frowned and said urgently, "I want to see the village chief!"
"Even if a high-ranking official comes, it won't make a difference!" These people were extremely arrogant, behaving exactly like a group of thugs.
Bai Mengfei was filled with doubt, wondering how she had offended them. But she finally understood why the villagers had looked at her so strangely.
Just as Bai Mengfei was silently weighing her options, those people approached step by step again.
Fortunately, the village chief arrived just in time at this tense moment. Upon seeing the tense scene, the village chief immediately stepped forward and angrily questioned, "Do you have no respect for the law?"
Upon hearing the village chief's voice, the group turned around. Seeing that it was the village chief, they all lowered their heads, their faces showing shame.
The village chief stormed over, pulled Bai Mengfei and Xiang Yuntian behind him, and sternly questioned the group: "It's one thing for you to be lawless in the village, but now you've done something so disgraceful in front of our guests!"
Those people seemed to be very afraid of the village chief, and they all remained silent, not daring to refute him.
After reprimanding them, the village chief left the police station with Bai Mengfei and Xiang Yuntian.
As they were leaving, the village chief said apologetically, "I'm sorry, they all grew up in this village and don't have much education. Please don't take it to heart!"
"With such poor security, the villagers must have suffered a lot, right?" Xiang Yuntian couldn't help but ask.
After hearing this, the village chief remained silent for a moment before speaking again: "By the way, your friend Qi Han has been found!"
"Found him?" Bai Mengfei was very surprised, after all, they had searched almost the entire village yesterday but had not found any news about Qi Han.
The village chief nodded slightly, a smile appearing on his face, and said, "Yes! She came back to our neighborhood committee to find me herself, and she even came with Linghu Bin!"
"How is she now? Is she alright?" Bai Mengfei asked anxiously.
The village chief nodded again and said softly, "You're alright, just a little thin from being hungry all day. As soon as I heard you were captured and brought here, I rushed over to tell you!"
"Oh, I see. Thank you so much, Village Chief!" Bai Mengfei said gratefully.
The village chief smiled slightly and said, "It's nothing, it's a small matter!"
The three of them arrived at the village committee together and saw Qi Han sitting on the sofa, while Linghu Bin sat beside her, gazing at her affectionately and gently stroking her hair with a look of heartache on his face.
Upon seeing the village chief and the others return, Linghu Bin hurriedly stood up and said, "I found her by the pond this morning. She was still a bit suicidal at first, but she's much better now!"
"Can't think straight?" Bai Mengfei was very surprised. She walked over and sat down next to Qi Han, asking with concern, "Why are you so worried?"
Upon hearing this, Qi Han immediately turned around, threw herself into Bai Mengfei's arms, and cried, "I don't want to live anymore! My husband is dead, and now I'm all alone."
"No, you still have us!" Bai Mengfei comforted her gently. "And don't you still have Teacher Linghu?"
After speaking, Bai Mengfei looked up at Linghu Bin, wanting to see his reaction.
Linghu Bin wore only a faint smile, a smile tinged with bitterness. His gaze never left Qi Han, hardly shifting for a moment.
With Bai Mengfei's careful comforting, Qi Han's emotions gradually stabilized, but she was still secretly sobbing.
Bai Mengfei was filled with curiosity.
Why is Qi Han suddenly so sad? Did something happen to upset her?
Just as Bai Mengfei was racking her brains, Linghu Bin suddenly stepped forward and said softly, "Why don't you leave this place to me? Let me keep Xiaohan company."
