Chapter 6, Liu Wei's Husband
I went back upstairs, pressed the doorbell a few times, and the door opened
I secretly scoffed to myself; since you know the goodness of others, why engage in reckless behavior outside? Now, it seems you will regret it only after you are about to lose it. However, I did not show this on my face. I took out a cigarette and handed it to him. He took it, lit it, and when he wanted to light my cigarette, I raised the lighter in my hand. As I lit it, I said: "Brother Sun, it's not that I'm criticizing you, but a man can indulge in a bit of frivolity once in a while, but what about you? How do you think Dr. Liu will feel about this? What place are you putting her in?"
Sun Yueping was taken aback by my words: "Doctor Pan, I do not understand what you are saying"
No need, you go ahead with what you are doing
Brother Sun, this is actually a matter for your family, and as an outsider, I shouldn't say anything. Since you asked, I will take the liberty to say a few words. Although I feel quite uncomfortable about this Sun Yueping, he is still Liu Wei's nominal husband, so I should still be polite.
I took out my phone to call Nie Lan, but a cold woman's voice came from the phone: "Sorry, the number you have dialed is turned off..."
I stood up and jogged towards the bedroom, with Wenhui following closely behind me
Wen Hui had a puzzled expression: "Do you still not believe me?"
"Ahua is already dead." I know that what I am saying is very cruel, but I must make her face reality; if she continues like this, she will eventually go insane
Today, Wen Hui took the initiative to come find me, and it was she who pulled me to her home, saying that Luo Hua wanted to communicate with me in person. I came here in a daze, and then, in a daze, I was kicked out by her. What is going on here
I recalled the situation from a few days ago when I visited her home, and I similarly experienced that feeling of being watched. However, at that time, the sensation was not very strong, and I even doubted whether it was merely a psychological effect of my own. Moreover, the feeling I had then was different from today's; it felt somewhat familiar, while today's sensation carries a sense of crisis and fear
I got up and poured a glass of water, then walked in front of Wenhui and handed her the water: "Have a sip of water, don't be nervous, relax."
At that moment, I experienced that feeling of being watched again, and I could clearly sense that it was coming from the direction of the bedroom. When I turned my head, I found that Wen Hui was also looking towards the bedroom at the same time. My heart skipped a beat; could it be that she felt it too?
As her friend, how could I possibly ignore her knowing that this would put her in danger? Moreover, I must find a breakthrough from her side regarding the promise I made to the goddess.
Sun Yueping nodded and said: "Indeed, she was truly reliable before; with her around, I really didn't have to worry about anything."
She took the cup of water in her hands, staring blankly at me, and after a long while finally said: "Has Ah Hua encountered an accident?"
Sigh! He let out a heavy sigh: "Doctor Pan, would you believe me if I said the facts are not as she described?"
To be honest, at this moment, fear has already risen in my heart
My mind is in turmoil; the scene that just unfolded has compelled me to reassess this matter. From the very beginning, I was mistaken. I approached the issue from the perspective of a psychologist, which led me to believe that everything Wenhui described was merely a figment of her imagination, stemming from her overwhelming longing for Luohua. However, it now appears that what she said is indeed true; perhaps Luohua really did come.
I let out a light sigh, and I am almost certain that it is an illusion caused by her excessive longing for Luo Hua. As for why Luo and the library Hua would have any connection with the medical institution called Future, I believe it may simply be a coincidence
This exceeds my understanding. Does the world truly have the existence of souls?
The message is sent to Wenhui, and I hope that perhaps this method can help evade those eyes lurking in the shadows
He looked utterly bewildered and reached out to grab my arm: "No, Dr. Pan, please clarify what you mean. What exactly have I done? What do you mean by playing along, and where does that leave her? I truly do not understand"
Her stubbornness left me speechless; I knew that at this moment, I could not persuade her at all, and I could only sigh again
Upon returning to the clinic, Xiaoxiao approached and said: "Brother Pan, Sun Yueping has arrived and is in your office!"
I was taken aback for a moment. Although Sun Yueping is Dr. Liu's husband, we hardly have any contact in our daily lives. What could he want from me?
He sat down, picked up the cup of tea in front of him, the tea was hot and still steaming, it must have been brewed by Xiaoxiao
Ahua! Ahua!
"Is this what she said?" He appeared somewhat surprised, and I did not respond, which could be taken as an acknowledgment.
Hearing Wen Hui's voice becoming somewhat anxious, it seems she has not summoned Luo Hua.
When I thought of this, I couldn't help but be taken aback, as if I had already accepted the reality that Luo Hua was still "alive"
No, Dr. Pan, you must believe me, it was truly he who sent me to find you, I am not lying, Ah Hua must have been taken away by them!
I could only helplessly say: "Alright then, take care of yourself. If anything happens, call me."
Previously, her behavior indeed suggested that she had been in contact with Luo Hua, but just now she seemed to have suddenly lost that connection, which is why she was so agitated, almost hysterical. If she is not lying, and if Luo Hua had indeed been at home all along, in what form did he exist? Was it truly his soul? Furthermore, how did he suddenly disappear, and where did he go? If she is not lying, and if Luo Hua had indeed been at home all along, in what form did he exist? Was it truly his soul? Furthermore, how did he suddenly disappear, and where did he go?
Why are you not clear about this? Isn't it because of those disgraceful matters regarding your keeping a mistress? I do not hold back in my words; since he himself does not care about his reputation, I see no need to conceal anything.
However, there is no one in the bedroom
However ... ...
Wen Hui spoke without waiting for me to say anything: "Doctor Pan, I have already made it very clear in the message, you may leave."
She closed the door before I could finish speaking
I nodded slightly and said, "Understood"
"Doctor Pan, has Xiaowei encountered any issues recently?" Sun Yueping asked me.
"It was he who asked me to find you, saying that only you could help him. They want to kill him. Luo Hua said he does not want to die; he wants to live." The words that Wen Hui said echoed in my mind again. Who are they? Why do they want to kill Luo Hua? And how can they kill someone who is already dead?
She told me that she would not leave her home, that she would wait for Luo Hua to return. She said that I no longer needed to concern myself with her matters, and that she had caused me trouble during this time.
I know it was you who took Ahua, return Ahua to me, return him to me! Her voice was filled with a sobbing tone
This fellow is quite good at putting on a show, I couldn't help but say: "Since you, Brother Sun, have said so, then we have nothing more to discuss. I have matters to attend to, so I must take my leave." I directly issued him a dismissal order.
Sun Yueping set down the teacup and said, "I do not mean to be presumptuous, please go ahead and speak."
My heart is also in a state of confusion, what exactly is going on
After finishing a cigarette, I started the car, as staying here any longer held no significance for the library. I also needed to calmly consider what my next step should be
I furrowed my brow. Does Liu Wei not understand what is happening? If it were not for his reckless behavior outside, Liu Wei would not have ended up in this situation. How dare he come and ask me.
Beep ... ...
I feel a slight chill on my back, and that feeling of being watched is undeniably real, I am certain of it. I can even be sure that the voyeur is still here, right in this bedroom, yet there is no one else in the room besides me and Wen Hui.
I said: "You and Dr. Liu are in the midst of a divorce, aren't you?"
Sitting in the car, I lit a cigarette, wanting to organize my thoughts
You may leave now. She did not look at me again, but instead sat down at the edge of the bed
He nodded slightly
Xiaoxiao said, "Should we give Sister Liu a call?"
Why has Wen Hui's attitude suddenly changed so drastically? I do not understand. I clearly informed her in the text message that I believe everything she said, and the reason I wanted her to temporarily move out was also out of concern for her safety. If she cannot even ensure her own safety, how can she save Luo Hua?
Hearing the text message notification sound, I quickly took out my phone; it was a message from Wen Hui
She lowered her face: "I will not leave; Luo Hua will be sad if he comes back and cannot see me."
"Brother Sun, in fact, Dr. Liu is a very good woman. She is diligent and serious in her work, and she is kind-hearted. There should be no complaints about her family life, right?" I asked.
I pressed my lips together, wanting to tell her that I had already believed everything she said, but considering that there were "others" in this room, I resolutely said: "You have been too tired during this time, why not change the environment and relax properly."
"Wen Hui, calm down!" I held onto Wen Hui, my gaze sweeping through the bedroom once more.
I began to doubt whether I was wrong; Wen Hui had not lied from beginning to end, and Luo Hua may have really come back.
I believe everything you say is true, so you must leave there; otherwise, everything we have done will be observed by them. If you truly wish to save Luo Hua, then listen to me
I took a deep breath and said, "Wenhui, I suggest you move out for a few days; you need to calm down and think things through."
I do not know whether Wenhui has seen my message
Upon descending the stairs, I took out my phone and composed a text message
I do not know what to do next; it seems that Wen Hui no longer wants me to be involved in her matters. As a result, the doubts in my heart remain unresolved, and I am unable to complete the investigation entrusted to me by Nie Lan regarding the medical institution called "Future".
"How could this happen? Where is Ah Hua? Why isn't he here?" Wen Hui looked at me, somewhat distraught, as if she were speaking to me, yet also murmuring to herself
I pushed open the door to my office and immediately saw Sun Yueping sitting somewhat uneasily on the sofa in the reception area. Upon seeing me enter, he quickly stood up and said, "Doctor Pan!" I smiled slightly at him and asked, "Is there something you need, Brother Sun?" He pressed his lips together, and I gestured for him to sit down, saying, "Please, have a seat and let's talk."
Upon seeing her message, I felt somewhat unsettled; her implication is that she does not wish for me to involve myself in her matters any further
Who are you, come out!" Wen Hui suddenly shouted hysterically
I am an atheist; I do not believe that there are any ghosts or spirits in this world. However, this does not mean that I will not feel fear in such a strange atmosphere
Wen Hui finally quieted down, and she said softly: "Don't you feel it too? They are right in my home; it must be them who took Luo Hua."
I did not truly leave, but sat down on a long bench in the community and lit a cigarette
