False evidence

Chapter 417 Rekindling the Bond (2)

Gu Haitao continued speaking as he recalled:
"I hadn't slept for two days straight, and after drinking a glass of wine, my mind was foggy. When he said that, I didn't know how to respond, so I just stared at him blankly."

At that moment, the man said something strange again.

He suddenly glared at my little one in my arms and said, "I advise you to curb your evil thoughts and treat others kindly in this life. Otherwise, when we meet again, it will be too late for regrets."

After saying that, he turned and left. By the time I realized what was happening and chased after him, he was already gone.

"It's amazing that you remember something from twenty-one years ago so clearly." Old Zhan shook his head vigorously.

Gu Haitao smiled wryly: "Qiaomei is my wife. If your wife had died, you would probably remember her even more clearly than I do."

Old Zhan glared at him, "You really are Luo Yinsheng, you never hold back your words!"

After hearing Gu Haitao recount what happened, I found it unbelievable.

The art of divination is indeed amazing, but it can only predict what a person will encounter in the near future.

If someone could truly predict what would happen 21 years from now, wouldn't they be a god?
I asked Gu Haitao, "What does that person look like?"

"He was probably in his fifties or sixties, you could say he was an old gentleman, his appearance..."

Gu Haitao suddenly widened his eyes, staring at me with an extremely strange expression. "From the moment I saw you, I felt something was off. Now I remember, you look remarkably like that old gentleman. If you were his age, you might... look even more like him!"

"hold head high……"

Erpang made a sudden noise for no apparent reason, then picked up his phone and pointed it at me.

A moment later, he handed the phone to Gu Haitao. "Does this face look familiar?"

I took a closer look and realized that he had used a mobile app to film a short video of me.

Because of the special effects, I look like an old man in the video.

Gu Haitao clapped his hands, "Yes! That's him! That's exactly how he looks!"

Erpang looked at me and said, "Strange things happen every year, but this year there seem to be more than usual."

Gu Haitao grabbed me, his voice trembling with excitement: "So you really did go to be reincarnated!"

I was even more confused. "What reincarnation?"

Gu Haitao swallowed hard. "It's like this, when I saw that person, I was stunned. But my friends who were helping me were clear-headed. Whatever else that person said was fine, but using my son as leverage—how could my friends agree to that? By the time I came to my senses and chased after him with a few others, he was gone. One of my friends said, 'Running so fast, are you in a hurry to be reborn?'"

I almost fell headfirst under the table.

This guy's brain is definitely messed up; he takes insults seriously!

At this moment, Tong Xiangnan said, "Your birthday and your wife's death anniversary are both April 8th, which is the day after tomorrow. As for what I just said, let's assume the prophecy comes true. How can you see your wife again?"

Gu Haitao actually laughed and said, "I knew you were just a charlatan."

Tong Xiangnan frowned: "How could I have been fooled?"

"Are you out of your mind?!" Gu Haitao put his arm around my shoulder and laughed, "What happened today, let alone you guys, even I feel like I'm dreaming. But I'm not stupid!"

A year ago, an old man said I would become a different person. And I really did become like this! Moreover, the person he asked me to find looks exactly like the strange man I met twenty-one years ago!
You've always pretended to be so rational, like some kind of master or expert. But can't you think about it from another angle? Some things may be inexplicable, but even the strangest things, once they happen, must have some explanation!

I don't care about anything else, I'll just follow this 'prophet' from twenty-one years ago, never leaving his side! I'll see if what he said comes true! If the prophecy comes true, I can see Qiaomei again; if I don't, I can at least beat him up to vent my anger!

Hearing him say that, Tong Xiangnan was speechless for a moment.

Old Zhan muttered, "He's getting drunk. That's just how Yin Sheng is when he's intoxicated!"

Erpang's eyes darted around a couple of times. "So? What should we do now?"

James picked up his phone. "I think it would be better to contact Jia Bao and Shirley first."

"no!"

Gu Haitao snatched the phone away. "We can't let them know where I am!" "Why?" Lao Zhan asked in astonishment.

Gu Haitao's expression shifted between light and dark, but he said sternly, "We absolutely cannot let them know!"

Tong Xiangnan leaned closer to me and whispered, "He's hiding something."

I nodded slightly.

In fact, when Tong Xiangnan said this, he was aware that Lü Xin had said something similar.

Gu Haitao was indeed under the influence of alcohol, and his words and actions became somewhat arrogant.

He immediately pulled me up and said, "I want to go see Qiaomei first, come with me!"

"Do you know where Qiaomei is?" Tong Xiangnan asked.

Gu Haitao scoffed, "I told you you were an idiot. Did you think I was going to see Qiaomei in person? I was talking about her grave! She's buried in Shuangshan Cemetery!"

After saying that, she pulled me outside.

I forcefully stopped him and said to Tong Xiangnan, "Uncle, what should I do now?"

Tong Xiangnan said angrily, "Take him away right now! I get annoyed just looking at him!"

He then added, "He's really out of control now, he'll do whatever he wants. Call me if anything comes up. Old Zhan, don't go with him, I have something to tell you."

In the car, Erpang suddenly asked Gu Haitao, "How much money do you have at home?"

"Why are you asking this?" Gu Haitao looked at him sharply.

Erpang changed direction and said, "Oh, I... am a doctor. I charge a lot for medical treatment. I'm afraid you won't have the money to pay for the treatment."

Gu Haitao raised an eyebrow: "Who are you treating? What does this have to do with you?"

Remembering that red invitation card, I turned to him and said, "To be honest, this matter doesn't really concern me much. But it does concern my brother. Let me put it this way: if you were Gu Haitao, I wouldn't care whether you live or die; but if you're Luo Yinsheng, this situation is abnormal, you're sick. If you're sick, you need to see a doctor, and our Erpang, whose real name is Zhao Laifu, is your doctor!"

"Whatever you say goes!" Gu Haitao opened his coat and leaned back in his chair with an air of nonchalance. "As long as I can see Qiaomei again, I'll give you everything I have!"

This dinner is quite unusual; we ate it rather early.

Dinner is served at four o'clock, and it's not even six o'clock yet.

When I got close to Sanfen Street, I thought I'd call Xiao Shen San first.

Gu Haitao said he was going to visit Ji Qiaomei, but he was actually going to pay respects at her grave, so he had to prepare some incense, candles, and paper money.

Before I could even dial the number, Gu Haitao suddenly slammed his hand on the back of my chair: "I can't take it anymore..."

I turned around and saw him holding onto the backrest with one hand and clutching his stomach with the other, looking pained. He said, "My stomach hurts terribly, it might be a stomach hemorrhage!"

In his mind's eye, Lü Xin murmured, "I knew I'd say something wrong."

He did give me a heads-up, but I didn't understand what he meant at the time.

Now I finally understand.

Gu Haitao and Luo Yinsheng did indeed switch identities, but their bodies remained the same.

With Gu Haitao's physique, it would be a miracle if he could withstand drinking heavily twice in a row and eating such spicy food!

The car stopped on Sanfenzhong Street, and Gu Haitao was taken to Monkey's clinic by Erpang and me.

As soon as I entered the clinic, I heard a crisp sound.

Looking up, we saw no monkeys, only Xie Xiaohuan, dressed in a nurse's uniform, staring at us in a daze.

On the floor in front of her lay a water glass that had just been smashed...
