Chapter 346 Why do I keep feeling like someone's there?
At the beginning......
“When Niannian graduated from high school, she said she wanted to go to Kyoto. We disagreed, so she brought Yuhan along as an intermediary.”
Later, the two encountered an accident. Nian Nian disappeared without a trace, and Yu Han was...
Recalling what happened back then, He Jingcheng's breathing quickened and his emotions were difficult to calm.
It's unacceptable for anyone to have their younger sister and childhood sweetheart both get into trouble.
Over the years, while searching for Niannian, they have also tried their best to make amends to Yin Yuhan.
I think that if Nian Nian hadn't been so naughty, the neighbor's little sister wouldn't have met with such a mishap.
So when she got together with Nian Nian's fiancé, Hua Yi Hai, they were genuinely happy.
Fearing that Hua Yihai would look down on Yu Han for not being a virgin, he also prepared a generous dowry for her.
Over the years, the couple has had no children. The He family, fearing Yin Yuhan would be mistreated, frequently invited people home for meals. They would also send them any local specialties they acquired.
"Didn't you ever suspect Yin Yuhan?"
"What are you doubting? She's been... rendered unable to have children. What girl would joke about her innocence!"
Hou Ruifeng was silent for a few seconds, then shook his head and said, "Eliminating all possibilities, even if it seems unbelievable, it could still be the truth!"
He Jingcheng was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said, "Impossible, impossible, it's definitely not Yu Han. Our two families are so close, and she and Niannian even grew up wearing the same dress, how could it be..."
"Perhaps they coveted something from He Nian, or perhaps their secrets were discovered by the other party. In any case, they wouldn't act without a reason."
Of course, these are just my speculations; you can take them with a grain of salt.
Outside the police station, Qiao Manman squatted in the corner and wrote the three words "Yin Yuhan" into her notebook.
He muttered to the system, "Oh dear, I have more and more enemies!"
The system was speechless, thinking to itself that the host had a really good attitude. Wouldn't most people, faced with this situation, rush to claim kinship?
His gaze fell upon the empire his host had built, and he instantly understood.
The host is a big shot; he can acknowledge relatives whenever he wants, or live a good life even if he doesn't.
On the contrary, those people who want to climb higher have to fawn over the host.
The system had been keeping its attention focused on the police station, and seeing that the two had finished their conversation, it quickly reminded them: "Host, someone's here!"
Qiao Manman got up and hid in the shadows, where she saw Hou Ruifeng taking He Jingcheng to the police station dormitory.
"Go to sleep, it's safe here. You can leave tomorrow when the troops come to take over!"
"Thank you so much! I don't know what I would have done without you!"
Hou Ruifeng raised his fist and chuckled as he punched his shoulder: "Don't be so polite, we're old classmates after all!"
He Jingcheng nodded, his eyes filled with a mixture of emotion and gratitude. He watched the other person leave, closed the door, sat on the bed for a long time, and then lay down to sleep.
Qiao Manman affixed an invisibility talisman to her body and quietly sneaked in. Standing at the door of the room, she hesitated for a moment, but still didn't use the wall-penetrating talisman.
He sprinkled some sleeping pills under the door and pressed his ear against it to listen for any sounds. Seeing that He Jingcheng's breathing was even, he took out a wire and poked at it, just like in the video.
Perhaps not being a naturally gifted player, Qiao Manman fiddled with the door for five minutes, sweating profusely, but still couldn't pry it open.
Just as she was about to give up, she heard a noise next door. Startled, she stood frozen in place, afraid of being discovered.
Zhang Xu came out of the room and subconsciously glanced in He Jingcheng's direction. After making sure the door was closed properly, he strode towards the washroom.
Qiao Manman held her breath, almost to the point of internal injury. Once he was out of sight, her body went limp, and with a click, the door opened.
Qiao Manman: "......" It was truly an unexpected stroke of luck.
He quickly slipped into the room, and just as he closed the door, Zhang Xu came out again.
I glanced down the hallway and felt a chill run down my spine: "Why do I keep feeling like someone's here?"
After saying he needed to pee, he hurried back to his room. Even wrapped in the blanket, he felt a bit cold.
Next door, Qiao Manman looked at He Jingcheng with mixed feelings. She couldn't help but raise her hand and poke his forehead: "You, you are so naive!"
In later generations, who would believe that Yin Yuhan didn't have bad intentions? Not taking it out on her would be considered kind-hearted, let alone giving her gifts. She's practically a scapegoat.
But he didn't dwell on the issue, after all, it was He Nian's business.
He raised his hand and struck the other man on the forehead with the high-yield soybean technique, and then used several talismans on him.
One of them is an upgraded version of the "Unity Pill," called something like "Loyalty to the Emperor and Patriotism Talisman." Now the emperor is gone, but the country remains.
Qiao Manman does not want researchers to fail the test and hand over their valuable knowledge and technology to others.
What else? A mind-detecting talisman, similar to an enlightenment talisman, that allows him to keenly sense the malice of others. It's a small safeguard for him.
Out of consideration for their kinship, Qiao Manman pried open his mouth, fed him half a Marrow Cleansing Pill, and tied two safety ropes to his hands.
Once the rope "disappeared," Qiao Manman opened the door and left.
Hearing the noise, Zhang Xu from next door came out to check. The hallway was empty, but there were faint footsteps. He was numb.
"Yes, yes..." He opened and closed his mouth several times, but couldn't say the word.
Qiao Manman glanced back at him, barely managing to suppress a laugh. Otherwise, she was afraid of scaring him unconscious.
Leaving the dormitory building and wandering on the wide main road, I suddenly missed Lu Yuan very much.
Just as I was about to write him a note to arrange a meeting, the system said, "Host, something's not right with your bodyguard!"
Qiao Manman flashed into the space and saw that Xia Zhao's face was pale, his forehead was covered in cold sweat, and his hand was still covering his abdomen.
"Zhaozhao, Zhaozhao, what's wrong?"
"Host, the effects of the drug haven't worn off yet. If you shake her awake like this, won't she discover the secret of the space?"
Qiao Manman let out a breath, left the space, and jogged back to the guesthouse.
Climb through the window into the room, put the person on the bed, and deactivate the stealth mode.
He took out a replica of the Rejuvenation Pill from his spatial storage, broke off a small piece, and fed it to Xia Zhao. He shook the thermos and poured the last bit of hot water into a cup.
Five minutes later, Xia Zhao woke up. By the moonlight, she saw Qiao Manman's expression and asked in a hoarse voice, "Sister-in-law, why aren't you sleeping?"
"And you're telling me? Are you sick? You're clutching your stomach in the middle of the night. Shouldn't you go to the hospital?"
Xia Zhao felt a surge of heat and said embarrassedly, "I... I got my period!"
Qiao Manman immediately understood, and frowned as she asked, "Why is it so serious? Does it hurt every time, or is it because you ate crab today?"
Not wanting Qiao Manman to worry, Xia Zhao smiled and said, "I'm used to it, just bear with it. Sister-in-law, I'll go out and tidy up a bit, you go to sleep first!"
As she stood up, her legs felt incredibly weak.
Qiao Manman stopped her: "You can tidy up inside. It's just the two of us, why are you afraid I'll see? At worst, I'll stand guard at the door!"
Xia Zhao smiled and said, "No!"
Qiao Manman took out two menstrual belts from her bag: "Here, these are clean, take them! I'll go ask the waiter if there's any hot water left."
Xia Zhao didn't refuse, and said with a smile, "Thank you, sister-in-law!"
After leaving, Qiao Manman knocked on the front desk's door and asked, "Excuse me, do you have hot water here?"
