Chapter 24 Find the real culprit

"Fairy Baiyun!"

Long Yuhan blurted out, staring straight at the woman upstairs. A look of surprise appeared on his originally cold face, as if he was seeing an old friend reunited after a long separation.

"Fairy Baiyun? Who is she?"

"Have you never heard of Fairy Baiyun? She is a world-famous heroine who specializes in killing lewd thieves and bullies."

"That's right. Have you ever heard of the flower-picking thief Butterfly? It is said that he died in her hands."

All the women were also excited, and all of them had long forgotten their fear.

"I wonder what crime this person has committed? Please tell the heroine clearly. Long will definitely report it to the imperial envoy and ask for merit for the heroine." Long Yuhan held the sword in his fist and asked respectfully.

I feel funny in my heart. It seems that I am not the only one who admires heroes. This Long Yuhan has always been like a block of ice, and this time he actually protected the killer in public. According to his meaning, as long as the Baiyun Fairy tells the story of the deceased

Once the sin is over, murder becomes meritorious. In this case, what is the need for the law?

"Hey, Heroine!"

"Where are the people?"

"We were here just now."

The originally quiet crowd suddenly became agitated.

I looked up to the third floor again, and there was Fairy Baiyun nowhere to be seen.

"You guys are waiting here for Magistrate Xu." Long Yuhan ordered urgently and suddenly rushed out the door.

"Yes." The eight detectives replied, asking everyone about the deceased's condition.

I turned back to look at Madam Mu beside me, and saw that she was still waving her fan calmly, with a vague smile on her face, her eyes staring at the lantern in front of her, wondering what she was thinking.

It seems that all this is the fault of Fairy Baiyun. Because they all like to wear white dresses, Xiao Mu misunderstood her. And I actually doubted her indiscriminately. How should I apologize to her?

"What's going on?" Magistrate Xu gasped, followed by Lieutenant Xiao and others running in.

"Mingfu." Everyone gave way.

"Magistrate Xu, the deceased Qin Zhen, nicknamed Qin Luosha. He fell to his death from the third floor. The murderer was the heroine Baiyun Fairy." A police officer explained everything concisely.

"Oh, thank you for your hard work, everyone." Magistrate Xu nodded and smiled. After all, he was an imperial envoy. Although he was a police officer, he had to be treated a little lightly. After all, it didn't take much effort to say a few polite words.

"Then I'll leave this place to Magistrate Xu. I'll go patrolling the streets later and take my leave."

After a few people left, Magistrate Xu straightened his body and put his hands behind his back: "Zhang Xiaoquan, go take a look."

"yes."

"Also, that... that... Li Jianghu, please call him too."

"yes."

"Mingfu. Mr. Li is here." I heard him call me and immediately squeezed over.

"Oh, it came quite quickly!" Magistrate Xu nodded happily: "You should go and have a look too."

"yes."

I took out a black handkerchief to cover my mouth and nose, and looked at the pile of dead flesh in the pool of blood. The fall was obvious to everyone, but it was just a formality, and autopsy records were still required.

Zhang Xiaoquan and I turned him over, and the screams around me almost deafened my ears. I saw that Qin Zhen’s face was covered with knife marks, her eyes were hollow and bleeding, and her eyeballs had been gouged out.

There was a bulge in his throat, as if something was stuck. Zhang Xiaoquan and I looked at each other, took out a sharp knife and gently opened it, only to find some stones and broken wood.

"This..." Zhang Xiaoquan was quite surprised.

"Treat others in their own way." I sighed, and I actually felt very happy. I think this Qin Rakshasa must have experienced all the methods of torturing those brothel girls before he died.

It's just that Fairy Baiyun was a little embarrassed, so she just changed her place.

"Reporting to the Ming Mansion, the cause of death of this person was indeed a fall from a height. There was a footprint on his abdomen. He must have been kicked downstairs. His eyes were gouged out and he was tortured before he died." Zhang Xiaoquan and I bowed together.

hand, and he stated the cause of death.

"Oh." Magistrate Xu looked around: "Do you all know the deceased? He was a criminal during his lifetime? Otherwise, why would Fairy Baiyun do justice for heaven?"

"Mingfu wants to make decisions for us. We are often bullied by him on weekdays."

"That's right, you see, the injury I got was from the last time he hit me."

All the women complained one after another.

"Aunt Xue, Aunt Xue. Chunhong passed out and there was a lot of blood down there!" Fendai shouted in a crying voice upstairs.

The women who were surrounding Magistrate Xu and accusing Qin Luosha of his crimes rushed upstairs again, shouting and crying.

"Ouch, why are you injured like this? Go and call the doctor!" Aunt Xue also shouted sadly. I don't know how she usually behaves, but the county magistrate is here at this time, and something happened to someone in her building.

It just doesn't make sense no matter what.

"Take the body away." Magistrate Xu waved his sleeves: "Anyone who commits unjust acts will be punished by his own death. It is inconvenient for the government to intervene in the actions of a knight-errant. Inform his family to go to the county government."

"yes."

"Walk."

After the county magistrate left, I quickly asked the servant for some water to cleanse my hands. Aunt Xue helped clean up the blood stains on the floor. However, Mrs. Mu disappeared for a while.

Not long after, the doctor came. It was Li Huichun from Huichun Hall, and a young woman who seemed to be fifteen or sixteen years old.

"Doctor Li, Doctor Du, please come with me." The boy shouted, leading the way.

"Xiuzhen, go ahead. I'll wait for you here." Li Huichun handed the medicine box to the woman beside him and watched her go upstairs.

"Hey, she is Doctor Du from Huichun Hall, right?"

"Well, the last time I felt uncomfortable, I came to see her."

"Looking at her young age, can she see a doctor?"

"You are looking down on people. Do you know who she is? The granddaughter of Du Ruhai, our miracle doctor in Xiangzhou City. I heard that she started reading medical books when she could speak. She used to follow her father Du Wenshu in Du's Medical Clinic.

We treated people together. Later, didn't the county magistrate add Huichun Tang Medical Clinic? Doctor Du sent her and Li Huichun here."

"Oh, it's really amazing."

"Hey, look at that Dr. Li, he's so good-looking."

"You don't have to be a nymphomaniac. I already have a wife, and I heard that I have a daughter."

"I'm a nymphomaniac? Then how come you know his situation so well?"

"You...I won't talk to you anymore."



Several women were whispering beside each other. I didn't mean to listen, but I couldn't help it.

How could Li Huichun come to such a place in person? Isn't he a good friend of the imperial envoy? Isn't he afraid of tarnishing his noble status? Or is he suddenly awakened again? He knows that as a doctor, he should not delay the patient's illness because of his beauty? Then

Why did he do that to that poor grandma last time?

Li Huichun also noticed me, nodded towards me, then took two steps forward, with a contemptuous smile in his eyes: "Is that you?"

"So what if it's me?" I felt a little uncomfortable when he asked me this. He must have misunderstood and thought that I was also here to have fun.

Hey, I was wronged, my lifelong reputation...Mrs. Mu, are you still there? I was just doing the autopsy, have you already gone back? Then I will leave too.

"Doctor Li." A deep voice sounded behind me.

Lady Mu!

I breathed a sigh of relief, as if I suddenly saw an oasis in the endless desert.

Li Huichun was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect Mrs. Mu to appear here.

"What? You don't recognize me anymore?" Mrs. Mu's voice was still rough, and there was a faint smell of alcohol coming from her body. She staggered around me and walked towards Li Huichun, and slapped him on the shoulder: "Come on.

Now...don't leave, you won't come back until you're drunk." As he said this, his body suddenly softened and he fell into his arms.

"Hey." Li Huichun whispered and rushed to help her, but Madam Mu seemed to have no bones and couldn't stand at all.

The women around him probably knew that Li Huichun was a good friend of the imperial envoy, so they talked for a few words without daring to be too provocative. Madam Mu was also dressed like a drunken man, and it seemed reasonable that she would go crazy when meeting an acquaintance.

.

But I was awake, and I felt very embarrassed when I saw this scene. Especially when I saw Mrs. Mu entangled with a married man so frivolously, I didn't know what to do.

No matter what, I don’t count her as anyone? No matter what, she came with me.

She clearly didn't drink just now, so why did I go back to the room and get drunk while doing the autopsy?

"Did you come with her?" Li Huichun asked me with an embarrassed look on his face.

"Yes."

"Then why don't you send her back?"

"Oh, Mu... Mu... Boss, are you okay?" I quickly pulled Mrs. Mu's arm from Li Huichun's neck, put it on my shoulder, and helped her out the door.

The lights were bright inside, but it was completely dark outside without realizing it. The moonlight was hazy in the sky, and a few stars seemed to be dozing off.

I walked more than ten steps with Mrs. Mu on my shoulders, and suddenly stopped. I didn't know where to send her.

Jianghu Inn? Or Mu Mansion, which I haven’t been to yet?

Just as I was thinking about it, there was a sudden light on my shoulder. I thought she would slip to the ground and rush to grab it in a panic, but she suddenly stood upright in front of me as if nothing happened.

"Boss, are you okay?" I asked carefully.

Madam Mu calmly stared at the Wanhua Tower in the distance and replied coldly: "What can happen to me?"

"I thought you were drunk and I didn't know where to send you."

"Drunk?" Madam Mu smiled coldly: "I never drink wine, how can I get drunk?"

"Then just now..."

Madam Mu slowly turned around: "What happened just now?"

"You are suddenly attached to someone. Well... that person's name is Li Huichun, and he is the doctor at Huichun Hall. He... he already has a wife, oh, and he seems to have children."

"Child? Hehehehe." Madam Mu suddenly laughed: "Can't I give birth? Who do you think you are? Who is he? Do you need to introduce him to me?"

I don’t know what’s wrong with her. Is she interested in Li Huichun? Otherwise, why did she lose her composure just now? Also, when she heard that Huichun Hall was opening, she even sent food to support Li Huichun’s free clinic...

But I didn’t say anything wrong.

Li Huichun is indeed very capable and good-looking, but since he already has a wife, why bother with him?

Although she is a widow, she is beautiful, rich, and the sister of Captain Mu. It is not difficult for her to remarry under her conditions. Is she willing to put aside her status and become a concubine?

"Li Jianghu, please go! I'm fine."

Just when I was struggling with how to persuade her, she sighed heavily and returned to normal, as if nothing happened just now.

"It's so late, I'll take you back."

"No need." Mrs. Mu said and left resolutely.

No matter what, it's not right to let a woman walk alone at night. Even if she doesn't agree, how can I feel at ease? With this thought, I no longer care about her thoughts and follow her secretly.
