Chapter 95 The Island of Mists

"What did you see in the coffin?" Jiao Huai asked Yun Xubai curiously, kicking the pebbles on the side of the road.

The coffin was placed too high, when Yun Xubai knocked open the coffin lid, Jiao Huai stretched her neck but couldn't see clearly.

"A sinister paper figure." Yun Xubai couldn't help frowning when recalling the scene in the coffin: "There seems to be something hidden inside the paper figure."

Jiao Huai kicked the pebbles away and stopped: "Corpse?"

"It's possible." Yun Xubai paused: "The boss stopped it too quickly, I didn't have time to identify it, it might be something like a spirit."

Jiao Huai pursed the corners of her lips: "In short, it is already certain that the lady boss is really dead."

Yun Xubai nodded.

The medical conditions on Siren Island are limited, there are only two community clinics in total, and Yun Xubai went to the one closest to Zhizhapu.

The clinic is an independent two-story house with white wall paint and a bright red cross in the middle.

During the lunch break, there was no one in the clinic. Several patients who came out of the clinic saw Yun Xubai and greeted him one after another.

Knowing that the doctor was still in the consulting room, Yun Xubai went directly to knock on the door.

"Come in." A voice without emotion came from inside.

Yun Xubai pushed open the door, and the two doctors looked at him at the same time, both of them were taken aback.

"Ba Ba?" The male doctor sitting carelessly on the table raised his eyebrows.

"You're happy to be a father again." Jiao Huai twitched the corners of her lips.

Only then did the male doctor realize that he had yelled a homophonic "Dad", and he was a little embarrassed: "Your ID is too much, I want to buy a name change card and change the ID to 'Grandpa'."

These two doctors are also players. The male player ID is "Fenghuizhuan". He is a level 3 player. He looks handsome and looks very cold.

The female player's id is "Liu Yin Hua Ming", a level 4 player, she is a sister with long hair reaching to her waist, an oval face with a pair of indifferent red phoenix eyes, and a white coat that shows a [-]% ascetic temperament on her.

[The id of the anchor is really wonderful! ]

[As long as the id is obtained well, the whole district is my son]

[The players in this dungeon are pretty good-looking, Sister Yu, Doctor, I can do it! ]

Yun Xubai walked into the consultation room, and extended his hand towards "Fenghuizhuan" friendly: "Just call me Xubai."

"My name is Feng Hui, and this is my younger sister Hua Ming." Feng Hui shook hands with him, showing a row of neat big white teeth: "We are fraternal twins."

Taking a closer look, although the temperaments and personalities of these two players are completely different, their eyebrows and eyes are somewhat similar.

"What's the matter?" Hua Ming asked straight to the point.

"Come check a copy of the medical records." Yun Xubai said calmly, "The patient's name is Qian Jingyi."

Qian Jingyi, the name of the proprietress of the paper-making shop, Yun Xubai saw her spirit card on the altar, and remembered it by the way.

The owner of the paper shop seems to be quite healthy, but the proprietress is more likely to be sick.

"It's not easy to find here so quickly." Hua Ming took out a thick folder from the drawer and handed it to Yun Xubai: "This is the consultation record of Qian Jingyi's attending doctor."

The identities of each group of players are different, and the channels for obtaining clues are also different. From this point of view, these two players have already read Qian Jingyi's medical records in advance.

Jiao Huai sat on the chair, her eyes turned around the two of them: "My brother saw the medicine box in the paper shop, so he came to check the records. Why do you pay attention to Qian Jingyi's medical records?"

"A resentful spirit forcibly lent us a sum of money. In order to repay the debt, we had to investigate his case. We found out about Qian Jingyi. This matter is very strange..." Hua Ming raised his long legs and said coldly. Said: "You can understand after reading the records."

"You also owe a debt to the Wraith?" Yun Xubai's eyes narrowed slightly: "How much do you owe?"

"Four dollars and four." Feng Hui pointed out four fingers and exaggeratedly said: "Four dollars and four can buy the lives of two people, can you believe it?"

"You have also been touched by the resentful spirit." Hua Ming's tone was very affirmative.

Yun Xubai raised the corner of his lower lip: "44 yuan and [-] cents, a little more than you."

"There are so many more than us!" Feng Hui patted the table: "It's not fair!"

[There is no harm without comparison, the anchor is slightly better]

[Suddenly feel that 44.4 is quite face-saving]

[Our anchor is a man worth [-] million]

[Laughing to death hahaha, the poor ghosts on the island are really hammered]

[I offer five yuan and five, little brother come with me]

"Who is it that lent you money?" Yun Xubai asked.

"Qian Jingyi's attending doctor, Dr. Lin." Hua Ming's eyes turned cold, "On the night of July 7th, Dr. Lin slipped and fell downstairs and died."

Yun Xubai opened the folder, and suddenly saw a medical record circled in red pen:

"July 7, at 12:[-] p.m., Qian Jingyi came to see the doctor, and got three doses of traditional Chinese medicine for fetal protection, four boxes of lutein capsules, and four boxes of vitamin E."

"What a coincidence, on the night of the 12th, Qian Jingyi came to see the doctor, and she was given birth control pills." Fingers painted with grape-colored nail polish tapped the table rhythmically, Hua Ming said: "We went to check , I heard that Qian Jingyi had disappeared as early as June 6, but the medical records were indeed written by Dr. Lin, and the pharmacy also had records of taking medicines. What's even more weird is that we asked around, and no one saw it that day. Qian Jingyi."

Yun Xubai recalled carefully, the abdomen of the paper man in the coffin was slightly swollen, it turned out that he was not getting fat, but pregnant.

No wonder the boss wants to put a paper figure of a golden boy and a jade girl next to the altar, she longs for a child.

"The people who come to see a doctor are not living people, of course they can't see them." Yun Xubai flipped through the pages, and all of Qian Jingyi's medical records were marked by Hua Ming with a red pen, making it clear at a glance.

The last consultation time was on June 6. On that day, Dr. Lin gave the diagnosis: the patient suffered from congenital heart disease, had symptoms of heart failure, and had a stillbirth. It is recommended to induce labor as soon as possible after the heart failure is controlled.

Hua Ming stood up, with a serious face: "You mean, Qian Jingyi is dead?"

"I just came here from the paper shop. Judging from the attitude of the boss, Qian Jingyi is dead." Yun Xubai closed the folder and put it on the table: "Qian Jingyi has a serious heart disease, the doctor It is judged that she can only live for one to two years at most. She finally conceived a child, but it was stillborn. At this time... what will she choose to do?"

Feng Hui rubbed his chin and guessed: "Can't stand the blow, choose to commit suicide under emotional agitation?"

"Use your brains." Hua Ming frowned. "Can't you see that the boss has been diverting the public's attention? This shows that Qian Jingyi's death must be concealed. If she committed suicide, why conceal it?"

Feng Hui scratched his hair: "Then tell me, what will she do?"

"She will do whatever it takes to 'survive'." Yun Xubai said thoughtfully: "She is the core npc of the entire dungeon, and the two wraiths who lent us money are more like unlucky people who accidentally got involved in a conspiracy ghost."

Fenghui couldn't keep up with his train of thought: "The doctors can't do anything, how can she survive?"

"Don't forget, this is a supernatural dungeon, nothing is impossible." Yun Xubai simply mentioned: "There are too few clues, if you continue to investigate, you will find out the truth."

Fenghui nodded with a half understanding, Yun Xubai's appearance brought them many new clues.

[It's so cool to be teammates with the anchor!I think his thinking is so clear, he always takes one step and sees three steps, so he feels safe! ]

[Other players encounter ghosts: Ahhhh! !The anchor encounters a ghost: let me see what clues you have]

[Hahaha anchor is my source of happiness]

[I feel that Hua Ming is also very smart and a reliable player, her brother is a bit funny]

"Apart from this, do you have any other discoveries?" Yun Xubai asked.

"There is also a personal work diary." Reciprocating, Hua Ming did not intend to keep any clues, and took out a yellowed diary from the drawer: "But there is not much useful information, you start reading from the tenth page."

"Thank you." Yun Xubai opened the diary, and Dr. Lin's handwriting was very scribbled, and he could barely read it clearly.

"On May 5, Qian Jingyi's physical condition was very bad and she was not suitable for conceiving a fetus, but she said that her wish was to have a child. This child was hard-won and must be kept. She was worried that other people would chew their tongues, Let me keep it secret, as a doctor, it is the most basic not to reveal the patient's privacy, and I reassure her."

"On June 6, Qian Jingyi's body was almost unbearable, and her mood was very unstable. Her husband had been told to keep an eye on the patient's mood...I was a little worried."

"On June 6, after Qian Jingyi learned that the fetus had stopped beating, she was very calm. It may be that her grief was greater than her heart's death. She thanked me for treating her in secret during this period of time. She touched her stomach and said,' Baby, we're home', she acted very strange, as if she thought the fetus was still alive. I was a little scared, so I reminded her to go to a big hospital outside the island as soon as possible, and the dead fetus should be taken out in time, otherwise her body would not be burdened. She agreed with a smile, saying that she had already made a decision."

With his fingertips resting on the word "decision", Yun Xubai's eyes rippled.

what decision?

"On June 6, I heard that Qian Jingyi disappeared. Is it because of the child? Should I continue to keep it a secret..."

"On June 6, some people said that she eloped with Teacher Qi, which is ridiculous! She and her husband have a stable relationship, how could they elope with others. The owner of the paper shop is going to hold a funeral for her. I feel strange. The two seem to be There are unknown secrets..."

"On June 6, I dreamed of her. She blamed me for not saving her child, and was afraid that if I told the secret, she would kill me. I was sweating all over and couldn't sleep in the second half of the night. I I really did my best, and I have no regrets.”

After that, the diary was full of "Qian Jingyi harmed me!!" in handwriting, which was shocking.

"Doctor Lin promised Qian Jingyi to keep the secret and treat her, but after the fetus died, Qian Jingyi couldn't accept the fact, so she and her husband made a certain decision together... It may be to use some kind of forbidden technique to save the child." Yun Relying on the clues he got so far, Xu Bai recounted the original situation: "Qian Jingyi was afraid that Dr. Lin would reveal the secret, so she killed her to silence her."

As for how Teacher Qi got involved, Yun Xubai hasn't found any contact yet, but there is one connection that he is very concerned about - Teacher Qi passes by Zhizhapu after class.Suppose Teacher Qi is very unlucky, and happened to encounter something that shouldn't be seen after class that day...

"Hiss... I suddenly feel that the plot is so clear!" Feng Hui patted Yun Xubai on the shoulder, and praised without hesitation: "You have a good brain, and you are also a level 3 player, why are you so handsome?"

"He is a high-quality level 3 player, and you are at the bottom of the crane, there is still some distance between the two." Hua Ming lazily complained.

"Did you say that about my brother? We have the same gene!" Feng bounced Huaming's forehead, and looked at Yun Xubai with envious eyes: "Look at his younger brother, how cute, cute and sensible, I am so envious .”

Jiao Huai absent-mindedly added the knife: "If you were my brother, I would choose to sever the relationship. Every copy of my brother can... Forget it, let's not talk about it, so as not to hit you."

"..." Feng Hui wanted to cry but had no tears: "Why do you bully me!"

[This player is a chatterbox]

[I also want a brother like the anchor! ]

[The point is, the anchor is still a handsome guy, do you think it's sour]

[The anchor speculates that Qian Jingyi used a forbidden technique to protect her pregnancy, do you think this speculation is reasonable? ]

[It’s hard to say, keep reading]

[Doctor Lin is really miserable, he has done nothing wrong, yet he will be murdered to silence him]

[The Zhizhapu family is quite cruel]

The clues were almost exchanged, Yun Xubai bid farewell to the two, and was about to leave the clinic.

"I sent you a friend request, please approve it." Hua Ming shook his phone at him.

Fenghui looked shocked: "Sister! You have learned how to add male player friends. Could it be that the thousand-year-old iron tree has blossomed?"

"It's just for business." Hua Ming was too lazy to talk nonsense with his stupid brother, and said to Yun Xubai: "Contact anytime if there is any progress."

Yun Xubai smiled, and gave a friendly reminder: "Today we saw the corpse of a player with a gray head portrait in the square, missing teeth and a heart, and initially suspected that the murderer was Qian Jingyi, and the method of killing is unknown. Tonight, the island worships 'open prison ', be careful."

……

Siren Primary School, teacher's office.

On weekends, there was no one in the school, and the whole school was shrouded in gray fog, like a mirage.

"What do you want to check?" Jiao Huai asked.

"Dr. Lin's consultation diary reminded me that Mr. Qi may also have something to record his life."

The paths of these two Wraith NPCs are very similar.

Yun Xubai found Teacher Qi's desk, looked around, and found a locked drawer. Before he could pick the lock, the drawer opened automatically.

Yun Xu didn't raise his head: "Mr. Qi, thank you."

Jiao Huai got goosebumps all over her body: "Don't remind me in this way, there is a ghost who has been following us, okay?"

Two dimples appeared on Yun Xubai's cheeks, but he didn't tell Jiao Huai that more than one ghost followed them.

There is only a kraft paper lesson plan book in the drawer, which is used by Teacher Qi to record some trivial daily things, such as a certain student winning an award, a certain student being mischievous, and a certain student's family can't get rid of the pot, so he secretly helped it...

Besides the students, Teacher Qi mentioned his wife the most.

"My wife's birthday is approaching, order a double cake from the house on the shore."

"It's been raining recently, and my wife's knees hurt, so I bought rheumatic bone pain patches and a warm water bottle."

"The student said that the sunflowers bloomed by the seaside, so he took his wife to see them on weekends."

"My wife wanted to eat candied chestnuts yesterday, so I bought them after class."

Each page is short, plain but warm, and between the lines, one can see Teacher Qi's love for his wife.

This has nothing to do with the rumored bastard who abandoned his wife and son.

[I burst into tears]

[Maybe this is the love of a middle-aged straight man, it’s so touching]

[Teacher Qi and Dr. Lin are both fucking miserable]

"Suddenly felt that he was a bit miserable." Jiao Huai folded her small hands and said to the air: "Be quiet, don't scare other people, we will help you."

"Others" specifically refers to Mrs. Hua.

"Go to Teacher Qi's house and 'pay off the debt'."

Yun Xubai picked up his notebook and walked out, Jiao Huai followed with short legs.

In broad daylight, the door of Mr. Qi's house was closed, and there was no popularity at all.

If it weren't for the incense sticks by the door, Yun Xubai would even think this is a deserted house.

Teacher Qi's wife has handicapped legs and feet, and her only son goes to school in other places. After Teacher Qi's accident, she should have not been out for a long time.

Jiao Huai knocked on the door, and when Sister-in-law Qi saw Yun Xubai, she lowered her face and wanted to close the door immediately.

Yun Xubai pressed the door quickly with his eyes and hands, and put the lesson plan in: "I have something for you."

Seeing the familiar handwriting on the lesson plan, Sister-in-law Qi reluctantly let go, turned the wheelchair with a cold face, and moved towards the yard.

Yun Xubai breathed a sigh of relief.

Yun Xubai looked back, he could feel that the spirit bodies following him stopped outside the door.

It seemed that there was a powerful force stopping them.

Seeing that he had not closed the door for so long, Mrs. Qi said impatiently, "Close the door!"

Yun Xubai was about to close the door when he suddenly met the door god's gaze, and suddenly felt awe-inspiring righteousness on the door.

He suddenly realized that it was the door god who blocked the evil thing.

"The rumors are false. Teacher Qi did not abandon his family." Yun Xubai handed the notebook to Qi's sister-in-law, and said softly, "You will understand after reading this diary."

"You'd better not come here to fool me again." Sister-in-law Qi took the notebook suspiciously, and flipped through it page by page.

She didn't speak, but her hands gradually trembled, and her eyes were a little red.

Yun Xubai sat down, eyes level with her: "The person who was thinking about buying you candied chestnuts the day before he disappeared, how could he betray his family?"

"But he never said he loved me. He was always cold. He didn't reply to ten sentences I said. I always thought that he had to marry me, a disabled person, because of guilt. I thought he finally didn't want to bear me anymore. So run away from home..."

Sister-in-law Qi gritted her teeth and beat her legs. Tears dripped down and wet the notebook in her hand: "Then where did he go? The phone call is not available, and the police can't find him. Where did he go?"

"He passed away." Although the words were cruel, Yun Xubai had to say them.

"What did you say?" Sister-in-law Qi's hand clutching the book had bruised veins, her tear-stained eyes stared at Yun Xubai, and said hysterically, "What nonsense are you talking about?!"

"Ms. Qi's soul has been following me, right now, outside the door, and the door god blocked him." Faced with Qi's sister-in-law's questioning, Yun Xubai was neither angry nor impatient, and his tone was still calm: "Take a mirror with me." Get out, and I'll prove it to you."

Sister-in-law Qi was so angry that her palms trembled, but she felt faintly in her heart that Yun Xubai was not lying. She thought twice and decided to give it a try.

"Be prepared mentally, no matter what you see, don't get excited." Yun Xubai was worried that she would not be able to bear it, and Teacher Qi would ask him to settle the score again.

Sister-in-law Qi gave him the mirror and agreed impatiently.

Yun Xubai stood on the threshold, held a mirror to look into the shade of the tree, and said loudly, "Mr. Qi, I can only help you up here. If you have anything to say, just use the mirror and tell your wife."

"Huh, huh..." The branches of the big tree were constantly shaking due to the wind, and the leaves fell one after another.

It's getting cloudier.

A fuzzy white shadow appeared in the mirror, and the mist gradually covered the mirror surface, and several bloody words appeared on it: Wife, it's me.

Sister-in-law Qi rolled her eyes when she saw the familiar handwriting, and passed out.

Jiao Huai immediately grabbed her, and she woke up faintly.

"Yu Ming..." She murmured in a low voice, two lines of tears fell from the corners of her eyes, and her thin lips kept trembling: "Yu Ming... why did you... why did you..."

Seeing that she was about to faint again, Yun Xubai quickly calmed her down.

"Who killed him?" Qi's sister-in-law wiped away the tears on her face and gritted her teeth: "I must give him justice!"

"I'm investigating, you can call the police first." Yun Xubai paused and asked her, "Where did you buy your door god?"

"There is a highly respected half-immortal on the island," Qi Qi said with a choked voice, "My family's door god buys it from him, and he only sells one pair a year, and only to those who are destined."

"Where is his home, I want to visit."

"He's already seventy years old, so he retired a long time ago."

"Just tell me the address." Yun Xubai thought for a while, and said: "You must not take off the door god, there are a lot of evil spirits lately."

Sister-in-law Qi looked at him gratefully, apologized for her previous bad attitude, and told him the address of Banxian's home.

Teacher Qi hid in the shade of a tree in front of the house and did not continue to follow him.

After leaving Mr. Qi's house, Yun Xubai took out the IOU to see that the loan on it was reduced by half.

"Half of the debt has been paid." Yun Xubai shook the note.

[I just came from Fengmang’s live broadcast room, it’s so cool to watch two threads at the same time, I feel like I’m the one with the most clues hahaha, by the way, the anchor is currently the fastest progressing]

[Anchor Niubi]

[Zai Zai is great! ]

["Ba Ba Chong Chong Chong!" tipped a local tyrant pigeon eggs * 100]

["I'm really not the vulture of the desert" rewarded colorful diamonds*100]

[It’s been a long time since I’ve seen such a humane anchor, what’s the use of this coin, I gave it to the anchor]

[Well... so far, I feel that the host is very warm]

Jiao Huai blinked her eyes: "Brother, I'm hungry."

"I'll take you to dinner after I take care of the rest." Yun Xubai lowered his voice, his eyes slightly raised.

Before going to Banxian's house, Yun Xubai had to get rid of the things behind him, so he purposely walked into a dark alley with no one there.

The thing behind him couldn't bear it anymore, and approached silently.

Yun Xubai suddenly stopped in his tracks, and when he looked back, a big pale papery face almost hit his face!

A pair of treacherous hanging eyes were painted on the flat face, two patches of red rouge were pasted on the cheeks, and a big bloody mouth was full of sharp bamboo teeth, stained with blood and some skin debris.

[Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh ! ]

[I was shocked again, the soup poured on my pants again orz]

[I was eating, looking at this bamboo tooth, suddenly...]

[Why do you watch the horror live broadcast as a food broadcast, why? !Is it dinner? ? ]

[It's a paper man! !It must have come out from Zhizhapu!Stay away from me, you ugly bastard! ]

[Is this what killed the first player?Its teeth resemble the shape of the wound on the corpse]

[Anchor run! ! ]

[Paper man run! !It will be too late! ]

[Paper figurine run +1]

The paper figurine opened its mouth wide, and Yun Xubai saw a blood-red eye deep in its throat, vicious and fierce.

A stench rushed towards his face, and just when the bamboo teeth of the paper figurine were about to bite his shoulders, Yun Xubai was taken away by Jiao Huai at the speed of the wind, pulling away a distance of about three meters.

The paper figurine bit the air in one bite, and the painted fake eyes hung high, with a vicious and angry expression.

"Crack... Creak..." The paper man wobbled after him and stopped one meter away from Yun Xubai.

It stretched out a palm as terrifying as teeth, slowly spread it out, and spit out a strange childish voice: "Give me your eyes, and I will let you go."

The childish voice combined with the terrifying appearance has an indescribable sense of strange contradiction.

"It's too expensive for the eyes." Yun Xubai showed a serious expression and asked, "Can I negotiate the price?"
