Reborn As Divine Doctor to Rule the World

Chapter 44: Chapter 45 Don’t Kill Me!

“What are you yelling about? Everyone else can endure it, so why are you so spineless!” Shao He calmly put away the porcelain jar for salt, her words dripping with sarcasm.

“I… I…” The thug’s face turned deathly pale, unable to utter a complete sentence.

“Ah, don’t, don’t kill me!”

“Waa, waa, waa…”

Suddenly, from the backyard came a terrible scream and the cries of a child, Shao He

Shao He’s expression changed drastically, and she rushed toward the backyard.

Upon seeing the dead man in the courtyard, she quickened her pace toward the room where another dead man lay inside.

Shao He’s legs felt somewhat weak, she suppressed the fear in her heart and approached the bed, seeing the unharmed child she finally felt relieved, hastily picked him up, and gently patted him to comfort him.

Yun Qian hurried over, seeing the child was safe, he immediately asked, “What happened here?”

Shao He shook her head, indicating that she too did not know what had happened.

Yun Qian went over to examine the men’s wounds and found they had both been killed with a single blow, indicating that the attacker must have been highly skilled in martial arts, quick and decisive, giving them no chance to resist.

Thinking of the thug outside, Shao He couldn’t help but feel suspicious, handed the child to Yun Qian, and took out a dagger hidden under the pillow and went outside.

Yun Qian, afraid that she might come to harm, followed her out with the child in his arms.

Shao He confronted the thug and demanded harshly, “Who sent you?”

Too pained to respond, the thug turned away, only realizing something was wrong when he felt the cold dagger against his neck.

“What… what are you going to do…”

Shao He, holding the dagger in front of him, said coldly, “The thugs inside are already dead. Are you in league with those two inside? And who sent you?”

“You, what you’re saying, I don’t understand any of… Ah!”

Shao He slightly pressed the dagger, causing blood to flow from the thug’s neck as she looked at him with a stern gaze.

“I’ll give you one more chance, speak!”

Feeling the pain on his neck, the thug knew she was serious and dared not withhold any information, he quickly spilled the truth.

It turned out that they indeed were in cahoots with the ones inside. Someone had offered them a significant sum to kill a child, but these thugs didn’t dare to do it themselves and were just meant to distract the two men.

“I was wrong, I won’t dare again, please spare me, please, I beg you.” The thug, terrified, felt his legs go weak, forgetting the pain in his arms.

Shao He, her expression cold, taught the thugs a lesson and threw them out.

Yun Qian, seeing the thugs being driven away, came over with the child.

“Today I met a woman wearing a veil. She insisted on seeing you for a consultation, and after hearing the child crying, she made many excuses wanting to check the backyard, but I didn’t allow her,” Yun Qian found the woman somewhat strange at that time.

Upon hearing this, Shao He speculated, “How tall was the woman approximately, what color was her clothing? Did she have any accessories on her wrist?”

After thinking for a moment, Yun Qian mentioned the woman wore a teal dress and a green jade bracelet on her wrist, and it seemed she also had a scented sachet hanging at her waist, embroidered with the character for ‘Jiner’.

Hearing his description, Shao He speculated, “This person must undoubtedly be Luo Jiner.”

“Did Anji Hall hire any bodyguards?”

Thinking of the two thugs dealt with in the backyard, Shao He asked.

Yun Qian shook his head and said, “Anji Hall is just a regular medical clinic, we’ve never hired any bodyguards.”

The two discussed this as they walked toward the backyard, but when they arrived, they found that the bodies of the two thugs were gone, and the bloodstains on the ground had been cleaned up; only a faint smell of blood lingered in the air, confirming that what had happened was real.

The two exchanged looks, both seeing shock in each other’s eyes.

Who were those people, to be so formidable?

Shao He frowned and after a moment of contemplation said, “This matter is getting more and more complicated.” @@novelbin@@

All of a sudden, the image of a man wearing a mask flashed through her mind, but she quickly dismissed the thought.
