False evidence

Chapter 104 Onset
The monkey carried the paper money outside, put the bag aside, took out a lighter, and tried to light it several times, but couldn't get it to ignite: "Is this paper money damp?"

"use this."

I handed him a box of matches.

I only scratched one, and it immediately caught fire.

The monkey asked me, "Should we call the master to collect the money?"

"Do you know what my name is?"

I told him not to say anything more and just to keep adding paper money to the basin.

The monkey sped up, flames rose, and soon a vortex of airflow formed above the brazier, swirling the burning paper ash into the air.

I looked at the tiled house and said in a low voice, "I don't know your name, but I know you suffered injustice before you died. But now that you've left this world, whatever resentment or obsession you may have, you should let it go... Take the money and go on your way."

I glanced at the time on the digital clock and thought to myself: as long as I can make it past midnight, the situation will be basically settled. I hope everything goes smoothly and nothing goes wrong.

Pidan seemed to say something. I didn't hear it clearly, and with my eyes fixed on the tiled house, I asked her to repeat it.

She raised her voice: "I said, why can't I light the burning paper with a lighter?"

I noticed her speech was inexplicably mumbled, and when I turned to see her clearly, my heart sank.

You have a nosebleed!

"Is it bleeding again?"

As if only then realizing what was happening, Pidan immediately looked up and said, "Quick, get me some paper..."

Before he could finish a sentence, he leaned against the wall and slid to the ground.

I rushed over to support her. Her eyelids were drooping, and her long eyelashes trembled constantly, as if she was trying to open her eyes wide but couldn't. Blood was gushing uncontrollably from her nose.

I couldn't care less about anything else. I threw down the lantern and hugged her tightly. "Monkey! Call an ambulance!"

The monkey had already witnessed this scene. It threw the burning paper aside, frantically pulled out its phone, and tapped a few times: "No signal!"

"Damn it! Go downstairs, go outside and hit me!"

I'm so regretful.

During my last visit to the hospital, I gained a more in-depth understanding of Pidan's condition. The doctors and nurses privately remarked that it was truly a miracle she had lived this long.

But there aren't that many eternal miracles in the world!
What was bound to happen has finally happened.

I wanted to strangle the monkey, and I hated myself even more.

Grandma San said that Pidan was dying, so why did I agree to let her come along? Why didn't I insist on taking her to the hospital?
The monkey hurriedly ran downstairs.

Yan Fengwei, soaking wet, ran to the door and was shocked to see what was wrong with the girl: "What happened to this young lady?"

I didn't have time to talk to him. I reached through the door and grabbed a handful of joss paper, carefully wiping the blood from Pidan's nose, muttering to myself like a possessed person:
"You'll be alright, you'll be alright, you just agreed to be my girlfriend... you'll definitely be okay..."

Yan Fengwei was stunned for a moment, then suddenly jumped up and said, "What the hell are you standing there for? Get her to the hospital right now!"

His words startled me awake, and I picked up the preserved egg and stumbled as I tried to leave.

"Xiao Zhen, don't stay cooped up! Something's happened, hurry up, let's go to the hospital together!" Yan Fengwei shouted from behind.

I carried Pidan down to the garage and had just put her in the car when Yan Fengwei suddenly held up a cell phone in front of me. "The one you just dropped, someone's calling you!"

"Why are you even answering the phone..."

"He'll definitely let you hear it; he says he knows how to save Pidan!"

I was startled, took the phone and held it to my ear. A man's quick yet steady voice immediately came through the receiver:
“I know what happened on your end. If you insist on taking Pei Xiaofan to the hospital now, she'll die before we get there! If you want to save her, listen to me, take her back to the attic immediately!” “Nonsense…”

"Listen to me!" the other person suddenly interrupted me, "I am Sun Jing!"

I was jolted.

The other party then said, "I am currently 1,480 kilometers away from your city, but I know everything you did tonight as if I experienced it myself! You should be able to guess why!"

"You're using clairvoyance to follow me?"

"It wasn't you, it was Pei Xiaofan!"

Sun Jing paused for a moment, then spoke again, his tone noticeably slower: "I saw Pei Xiaofan's medical records at the hospital. You should know her condition well—the doctors can't save her. If you want her to live, do as I say, and she might be able to live a little longer."

"What do you want me to do?" I finally fully remembered Sun Jing's identity and realized that what he said was true.

Sun Jing immediately said, "Take her back to the attic! Then I'll teach you what to do next."

I quickly switched to speakerphone, handed the phone to Yan Fengwei, lifted Pidan out of the back seat, took a couple of steps, and suddenly remembered something: "The signal is bad here..."

Sun Jing interrupted me again, saying, "I will help you in my own way; I don't need a phone."

"Why are you helping me?" I finally couldn't help but ask.

"Because I want to change my destiny!"

……

Back in the attic, I put the preserved egg on the small sofa, picked up my phone, but the connection had dropped.

Yan Fengwei stared at me and said, "I believe in superstitions, but I'm not superstitious. This girl is so sick, and you're not taking her to the hospital... Are you crazy?"

"I didn't believe in superstitions before, but now—I do!"

I dialed the unmarked number again and again, but I couldn't get through.

Sun Jing is a criminal.

In my eyes, he is utterly wicked.

However, I haven't forgotten that he said on the phone last time that he and I were from the same school, and that he started school three years earlier than me!

Although I am not yet able to fully utilize the language of divination, he may already be able to see things that I cannot see through it.

Perhaps, this bastard I despise is the one who truly has the ability to reverse the future.

Two key points: He reminded me that Pidan was already terminally ill. If he suddenly fell ill, unless medical staff were nearby and there was any chance of saving him, there were too many factors that could make his condition worse during the journey to the hospital... or even lead to his death.

Furthermore, if Sun Jing's skill had truly reached the point where he could communicate with people thousands of miles away, then he should know that Pi Dan was currently on the verge of life and death.

Knowing that the person was about to die, why did he go through all that trouble?
If he continues to lie at this point, then he really has something wrong with his head, and the only result he will get is to have another mortal enemy!
“Twenty-one…” Pidan suddenly raised his hand.

"I'm here!" I quickly pulled her into my arms.

Her eyes were still not fully open, but she leaned against me, tilting her head back with all her might, her dim gaze meeting mine for a long time.

She suddenly laughed: "I'm sorry, I lied to you..."

"What did you lie to me about?" I've lost count of how many times I've wiped the blood from her nose.

"I don't like you at all..."

Pidan's smile deepened, but the corners of his mouth twitched involuntarily intermittently: "I knew this day would come, but... I can't bear to leave my mother. I... before I left, I agreed to date you because I wanted... I wanted you to take care of my mother for me. I don't... I don't like you..."
