Because Hai Xili already knew clearly that Lei Hongguang was irreplaceable to her.
That kind of happiness and security is something no other man can covet.
She also poured all her love into Lei Hongguang and regarded him as the only man in her life.
But breaking off an engagement is not a good thing after all, and it will put some pressure on the heart, so before the critical moment, Hai Xili still needs to adjust herself.
Lei Hongguang naturally understood this, so he had no intention of urging her, but quietly stood with her outside the door waiting.
After adjusting for a few minutes and preparing a draft in mind, Hai Xili nodded to Lei Hongguang, then grabbed his hand, interlocked their fingers, and strode towards home.
After walking across the yard and arriving at the front door of the house, Hai Xili raised her hand and gently pushed the door.
"Squeak..."
The half-open door was pushed open, but the scene behind the door shocked Hai Xili greatly.
Although she thought she was mentally prepared, she was still stunned!

381 Tired Auntie
"Kazuto-kun..."
Hai Xioli pushed open the door with a serious look on her face, preparing to speak out a series of words she had just prepared to announce the cancellation of the engagement.
But after seeing the scene in the room, her eyes widened instantly, and the string of words that had come to her throat were instantly swallowed back into her stomach.
"Blood...so much blood..."
Hai Xili's face turned pale and her body trembled a little. She couldn't help but hold Lei Hongguang's hand tightly.
The scene in front of her frightened her. She saw that the tiles in the living room were covered with bright red blood, and some blood even stained the sofa and the coffee table.
When I turned my head, I saw two bodies with slightly familiar backs lying cross-legged on the ground and the sofa, covered in blood and motionless. They didn't look like living people.
How could Hai Xili not be scared when she saw this crime scene-like scene? She had never seen such a scene before and was completely stunned.
"Auntie..." Hai Xili didn't come back to her senses until Lei Hongguang patted her on the shoulder.
"What...what happened?" Hai Xili's voice was trembling uncontrollably because she was frightened.
"They both seem to be dead..."
Lei Hongguang came to the bodies of Xia Shumingren and Xia Shuheren, and after a quick inspection, he spoke to Hai Xili who was standing beside them trembling.
"Is... is it Kazuto and Akito? How... how could this happen?!" Hai Xili's face was full of shock and it was really hard to believe.
Just yesterday, or even this morning, these two familiar brothers were apparently full of energy. How come they turned into two corpses when they came back just a short while after leaving home!
Even though they had given all their emotions to Lei Hongguang, the Xia Shu brothers were also very familiar to Hai Xili, so they were so surprised that their eyes turned black.
Lei Hongguang looked at the inevitable human traces left around him and thought for a moment.
Then he said to Hai Xili, "Auntie, do you remember the gang that chased and tried to catch you during the courage contest?"
Hai Xili, who was hugging Lei Hongguang's arm tightly in fear, nodded repeatedly: "Of course I still remember!"
Lei Hongguang immediately continued, "The gangsters first tried to attack you, and then the doctor in your hospital targeted you. Besides, there was a group of skilled thugs following the doctor."
"It's no coincidence that groups of people are targeting you, Auntie."
"It's obvious that this group of people accepted orders from someone behind the scenes and came here specifically to target you."
After hearing Lei Hongguang's words, Hai Xili began to think quickly.
With Lei Hongguang's previous analysis, Hai Xili easily guessed the answer.
"Is it Yoshizawa Eigen? Is it related to the death of Yoshizawa Takeo?!" Hai Xili blurted out.
Lei Hongguang nodded: "Well, to be precise, it should be that Yoshizawa Yingxuan wanted to investigate the whereabouts of his son's disappearance, or he already knew that his son was dead and was seeking revenge."
"Maybe Yoshizawa Eigen was just guessing, but the fact that Yoshizawa Takeo disappeared from your house is a foregone conclusion."
"So Yoshizawa Eigen suspected that you, Aunt Umi Shiori, were the murderer of Yoshizawa Takeo, so he targeted you."
"And Natsuki Akito and Natsuki Kazuto, who also live in this house, are also suspects. They are also being targeted by Yoshizawa Eigen."
After hearing Lei Hongguang's words, Hai Xili, who had been reminded by Lei Hongguang to be careful of Yoshizawa Eigen before, gradually understood.
"The Yoshizawa family is indeed very powerful in Ino Town. The reason why Kazuto invited Yoshizawa Takeo to stay at his home was because he didn't dare to refuse."
"And since Takeo Yoshizawa disappeared from our house, we have to bear a great responsibility in Yoshizawa Eigen's eyes."
"In order to investigate the disappearance of his son Takeo Yoshizawa and punish us, Yoshizawa Eigen sent people to attack me many times, including that group of thugs and doctors, but fortunately I had the help of Lei Hongjun, and he never succeeded."
"At the same time, he also sent people to attack Akito and Kazuto and the others, and then they were directly... killed by that group of people...?!"
At the end, looking at the bodies of the Xia Shu brothers lying on the ground in front of him, Hai Xi still had a hint of disbelief in his eyes.
"Well, that's probably the case." Lei Hongguang nodded.
"When I was saving you, Aunt Hai Xili, in the hospital, I caught one of the thugs. After interrogation, I found out that they were indeed sent by Yoshizawa Eigen."
"According to him, Yoshizawa Eigen regarded human life as worthless and was suspicious and cruel."
"As long as there is a hint of doubt, we will decide to take action." Lei Hongguang explained a few more words to Hai Xili.
"President Yoshizawa... Yoshizawa Eigen is such a bad guy!" Hai Xili threw herself into Lei Hongguang's arms, stretched out her hands and hugged him tightly.
Lei Hongguang gently hugged Hai Xili's slender waist, only to see that her plump body was trembling slightly and her face was full of tears.
Lei Hongguang also understood this.
Although he had long been accustomed to the matter of death.
She was not familiar with Xia Shumingto and Xia Shuheren, so she was not upset even when she heard the news of their death.
But it’s different in Haixili.
Although Hai Xili had a very good impression of him before today, after they had further relations in the pharmacy today, she had already given everything to him.
But after all, he had known the two brothers Xia Shu for many years. Seeing the people he used to know die so suddenly, like grass, Hai Xi must have felt sad.
Lei Hongguang didn't say much, he just patted Hai Xili's back gently to comfort her sadness.
With Lei Hongguang's comfort, Hai Xili's sad mood gradually subsided.
But she still couldn't help crying, "Lei Hongjun, Yoshizawa Yingxuan is too vicious. He wants to kill people... What should we do..."
After seeing how cruel and brutal Yoshizawa Eigen was, Hai Xioli couldn't help but feel a little scared.
Lei Hongguang gently wiped away the tears from her eyes and comforted her: "Don't worry, I will protect you, Auntie. That arrogant guy will also pay the price he deserves."
Although the promise made by a high school student did not sound that meaningful, when Hai Xili heard it, she felt relieved all of a sudden.
"Yes! Auntie believes in Lei Hongjun! Thank you so much, Lei Hongjun!" Hai Xili couldn't help but kiss Lei Hongguang on the face several times in succession, then nodded seriously and said.
Lei Hongguang had saved her several times before, so Hai Xili had unconditional trust in Lei Hongguang's words that he would protect her.
However, looking at the handsome young man beside her who made her feel that he must be reliable, Hai Xili couldn't help but hug Lei Hongguang's arm and said with some concern:
"Lei Hongjun, I heard that the Yoshizawa family is very powerful. Not only in Ino Town, but also in several neighboring villages and towns, they have a certain influence."
"Yoshizawa Eigen not only runs the largest hospital, but also has many other businesses, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to hire so many thugs."
"Auntie feels...feels like it's hard for us to defeat him..."
"That's right! He hired someone to kill people, including Mingren and Kazuto. Why don't we call the police first!"
"Auntie absolutely... absolutely cannot accept anything happening to you, Lei Hongjun. If something happens to you, then Auntie... won't want to live anymore."
Hai Xili hugged Lei Hongguang tightly and said with a worried tone.
Seeing Hai Xili's extremely worried look, Lei Hongguang did not refuse. He touched her head and agreed to her suggestion of calling the police.
Accompanied by Lei Hongguang, Hai Xili came to the police station in Jingye Town and reported what he found after returning home.
But as Lei Hongguang expected, the response from the police office made Hai Xili very dissatisfied.
Because after the police station sent someone to conduct a simple investigation, they immediately came up with a conclusion that left Hai Xili speechless.
That is, the case reported by Hai Xili was not a homicide case, but most likely just a quarrel between brothers.
According to the investigation of the relevant personnel they dispatched, it should be that Xia Shumingren and the Xia Shuheren brothers had an argument, then fought at home, and then killed each other.
This is the conclusion given by the police station, which said that it was determined based on fingerprints, the murder weapon, and various traces at the scene.
They even visited the neighbors, and they all said that they did hear fierce quarrels and fighting in Xia Shu's house.
In short, the relevant personnel in the police station have already given a rough assessment of the situation.
Their expressionless faces made it hard to guess whether they really didn't find the problem, or if they found something but didn't dare to say it, or if they had been warned about it earlier.
In short, the other party just comforted Hai Xili verbally, saying that they would continue the investigation and asked her to go back and wait for news.
Hai Xili had no way to deal with the response from the police office.
She didn't know whether the other party was shirking responsibility or whether Yoshizawa Eigen had already used his power to make arrangements. In short, judging from the other party's performance at this time, it could be said that it was basically hopeless to rely on them.
When Hai Xili walked out of the police office with a dazed look on her face, her hands and feet felt a little cold.
As for the official forces of this other world, Lei Hongguang didn't have much hope at the beginning.
After all, the larger Metropolitan Police Departments he encountered in Tokyo were unreliable, let alone those in such a small place.
So Lei Hongguang didn't have much hope at the beginning, and he observed at the time and found that the crime scene had been arranged. It really looked like the brothers Xia Shuming and Xia Shuhe were fighting each other.
Although if we really continue to investigate, we may find clues and human traces.
But as I said before, it’s better not to have too much hope for the Metropolitan Police Department in this otherworld.
The reason why Lei Hongguang agreed to come along to report the case was just to make Hai Xili feel better.
But after getting the result, Hai Xili felt even more upset.
"Fortunately... I still have Lei Hongjun here..." Hai Xili hugged Lei Hongguang's arm tightly, her bright and beautiful face looked a little haggard and pitiful.
Feeling Hai Xili's arms tightly around him, Lei Hongguang patted her shoulder in an attempt to comfort her.
"Auntie, let me take you home first." Lei Hongguang said.
She was already feeling unwell after inhaling the mysterious smoke designed by Dr. Gaocun, and then the process of Lei Hongguang helping her detoxify was extremely turbulent, causing Hai Xili to ache all over. Even with Lei Hongguang's help, her body would still need some time to recover.
