Pei Qian watched the actual situation unfold as the doctor had yet to arrive when the news had already spread.
Many people on the street gathered to see if it truly was a wronged spirit claiming a life. Just yesterday, so many were saying that Pei Wensheng had smothered his half-brother to death, yet the Government Office extracted no confession, allowing him to return home after he had fainted. And now, he encountered such a bizarre and horrifying event as a ghost seeking retribution.
The crowd, feeling a shared distress, came to look, whispering softly to each other, afraid they might encounter something unclean, yet couldn't help their curiosity and longed to discover the truth.
After Pei Wensheng had fainted, Qian Wanxiu and Pei Wenchen moved him into their own room and summoned a doctor.
