There are a lot of baby things at home.

Qiao Qin's mood also improved a lot. She hummed a little tune in the villa and decorated the children's room for her future child.

"This is the baby's closet, here are his toys, and here..."

Qiao Qin talked incessantly, imagining a beautiful future.

Huo Shiyan stood aside, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised, with a doting smile.

At this time.

A pleasant ringtone broke the warm atmosphere.

Huo Shiyan took out his cell phone, turned around and left the room.

"No clues yet?"

"I'm sorry, but the other party was too cautious and didn't leave any traces at the crime scene."

"How's it going at the police station?"

"Ms. Qiao is still pregnant, so we can delay a little bit, but if we still don't find evidence after the baby is born..."

The rest of the words were not finished, but the meaning was already very clear.

Huo Xiaofei is dead.

It was almost a foregone conclusion that only Qiao Qin was at the scene, holding the murder weapon.

at the corner.

Qiao Qin covered her mouth and heard the conversation between the two. One hand tightly grasped the corner of her clothes and clenched it into a fist.

She didn't kill Huo Xiaofei!

Her happy life has just begun, and she also wants to spend time with her children as they grow up. She absolutely cannot go to jail because of this incident.

Qiao Qin's gaze gradually became firm. She gritted her teeth and tried to stand firm while holding onto the wall.

Who is that masked man?

She must find the person out.

Night falls.

A bright moon hangs high in the sky, emitting a soft silver glow.

Qiao Qin tossed and turned in bed, thinking for a long time. It seemed that only by returning to the crime scene could she find clues.

While Aunt Song was not paying attention, she sneaked out of the villa.

The second time I came to Qingyu Apartment, I was already familiar with the route and quickly reached the door of the room.

An eerie atmosphere hit me in the face.

Qiao Qin couldn't help shivering, touched his arm, and mustered up the courage to push open the door.

"Squeak-"

The slightest sound is particularly harsh in the silence.

Qiao Qin looked inside and saw a dark figure squatting in the corner, seemingly digging something.

The other party obviously didn't expect someone to come over and turned his head suddenly.

A scary clown mask came into view.

Very familiar.

"It's you!" Qiao Qin's pupils shrank slightly, and she couldn't help but shout out.

The masked man took out a bloody dagger from the mechanism, put it in his arms, and ran out quickly.

Realizing that was the real murder weapon, Qiao Qin immediately followed.

"Stop! Stop!"

She was panting, feeling extremely anxious.

That was the only thing that could prove her innocence.

however.

The masked man ran so fast that he was about to disappear. At this moment, a tall figure rushed out from the side and blocked his way.

Qiao Qin recognized the person and stopped, "Huo Shiyan? Why are you here?"

As soon as the words fell, the two of them quickly started to entangle.

The noise here was so loud that it attracted more and more people to watch.

The man was holding a weapon, and Huo Shiyan was unable to do anything to him for a moment, so he punched the clown mask.

at last.

There was a crisp sound next to my ears, and the mask could not withstand the heavy blow and broke in the middle.

Huo Shiyan paused for a moment and stared at the other person, trying to see the face under the mask clearly.

who is it?

Who was the mastermind behind the incident eighteen years ago?

However, during this moment of distraction, the other party seized the opportunity and stabbed Huo Shiyan's chest with the sharp dagger.

Qiao Qin's eyes widened as a chill ran through her limbs, chilling her bones.

She ran over like crazy, pushed forward with both hands, and shouted, "Huo Shiyan, be careful!"

Thanks to this action, the direction of the knife tip was deflected and it did not penetrate into the vital part.

however.

Huo Shiyan was pushed, and his forehead hit the wound from last time, and he lost consciousness instantly.

The enthusiastic people had already called the police.

A shrill whistle sounded from a distance, but the masked man had already disappeared without a trace.

"Ms. Qiao, could you please come with us and tell us what happened at the scene?"

The masked man's reappearance was enough to clear her of half of the suspicion.

Qiao Qin immediately nodded in cooperation, but she couldn't help but think of Huo Shiyan, and a hint of worry flashed across her eyes.

Assistant Yan also arrived at the apartment, panting: "Don't worry, Miss Qiao, just leave it to me."

Qiao Qin thought about it and had no choice but to agree.

She spent a whole day at the police station because the case was extremely complicated.

"Ms. Qiao, think carefully about who around you fits the description of the masked man?"

Qiao Qin was silent for a moment, and finally shook her head.

This person never appeared in her previous life. Maybe it was the butterfly effect caused by her rebirth?

After thinking for a long time without any result, Qiao Qin left the police station and couldn't wait to take a taxi to the hospital.

"How is it? Is Huo Shiyan okay?" She grabbed Assistant Yan and asked anxiously.

"Don't worry, Miss Qiao. The doctor said there's nothing wrong, it's just..."

Assistant Yan paused suddenly, with a strange expression on his face, and moved aside to make way for him. “You’ll know after you go in.”

Qiao Qin's eyelids twitched, and an inexplicable sense of uneasiness arose in her heart.

The moment the door is opened.

She saw a strange girl sitting next to Huo Shiyan.

The two of them were very close to each other, whispering something.

I saw the girl covering her mouth and laughing from time to time, her cheeks slightly red, and she seemed very happy.

Qiao Qin stood there in a daze, the fruit basket she bought for Huo Shiyan fell to the ground, and the fruits inside rolled out and scattered everywhere.

"Bang!" There was a loud noise.

Huo Shiyan turned his head and saw Qiao Qin standing stupidly at the door.

"Why are you standing there?"

The bass sounds as good as always.

Qiao Qin looked at the girl beside him without blinking, and asked softly, "Who is she?"

There was no guilt on Huo Shiyan's face, and the corners of his lips were slightly raised.

"Wang Qinglu, this time it's all thanks to her for giving me that final push."

The situation was tense at the time. Huo Shiyan had his back to everyone and didn't see who saved him at all.

But after waking up, he saw Wang Qinglu sitting by the bed, taking care of him.

"Well, I was in a panic at the time, so I just pushed it, but I didn't expect it to be too hard..." Wang Qinglu lowered her head and twirled the corners of her clothes with both hands, "I'm sorry, I made you hit your head."

Huo Shiyan shook his head: "If it weren't for you, that knife would have stabbed my vitals."

The two of them were talking to each other, but Qiao Qin just stood there like a wooden man.

At that time, the person who saved Huo Shiyan was obviously her!

Who is this Wang Qinglu?

Where did it come from again?

Qiao Qin's face was filled with surprise. After coming to her senses, she hurriedly said, "That's not the case. At that time, I..."

As soon as he finished speaking, he was interrupted.

"Who gave you the jade pendant on your neck?" Huo Shiyan suddenly ignored his injuries, sat up, and his eyes were sharper than ever before.

I saw.

Because Wang Qinglu leaned over just now, a green jade pendant slipped out from around her neck.

"I, I've had it with me since I was a child." She shrank her neck in fear and whispered, "Is there a problem?"

Huo Shiyan was silent for a few seconds, with a hint of nostalgia in his eyes.

"This is my mother's favorite jade pendant."

The air around seemed to freeze for a moment.

Huo Shiyan looked at Wang Qinglu, his eyes suddenly softened and his tone became extremely gentle.

"You should be my sister."
