Chapter 104

C104

Lunch.

Xiao Mo Xin dragged Yu Chi Ming to the dead man's home.

She was neither corona nor a yamen runner, so she would naturally not look for the slightest clue. The thing she was looking for was very simple — — ghost aura.

Due to the fact that the first four bailiffs had died for too long, even if the ghost aura had been left behind, it had already vanished into thin air. As for the fifth bailiff, if they were lucky enough, they would still be able to discover the ghost aura left behind by the evil ghost.

"Knock…"

Xiao Mo Xin knocked on the closed door, but after waiting for a while, without waiting for anyone to open the door, he increased his strength: "Is there anyone?"

"Who is it?" After a short moment, a hoarse voice sounded from within the room.

Xiao Mo Xin retracted his fingertips, "We are people from the yamen, we are here to ask you about some matters!"

"Wait a minute!"

Moments later …

The door opened from the inside, revealing an old woman of about sixty to seventy years of age, with red and swollen eyes.

"Are you really from the yamen?" There was doubt in the old woman's eyes.

"Yes sir!"

"Then why haven't I seen you two before?"

"We are from up here, and we are responsible for investigating the murder of the bailiff!" Xiao Mo Xin said without panicking, but in truth, she did not care about what was on the orders from the higher ups, she was the one who acted on her own accord.

However, with Yu Chi Ming, this big tree, it was easy for her to take advantage of.

When the old woman heard this, she kneeled on the ground and begged, "My two lords, I beg you, I must return my son justice. He cannot die in vain. The person who killed him must pay with his life!"

Xiao Mo Xin immediately reached out and helped her up, "Don't worry, we will definitely find the culprit!"

It was a pity that even if they found out about it, they wouldn't be able to give them a proper explanation.

She could not allow those who had already died to kneel before them and beg for forgiveness.

The old woman raised her hand and wiped away the tears on her cheeks, "This humble woman has lost her composure. Milords, this way please!"

Xiao Mo Xin nodded and followed her into the courtyard.

The old woman led them into her son's room. "This is A'Hai's room!"

As the words left his mouth, tears began to flow uncontrollably from the corners of his eyes.

Xiao Mo Xin strode into the room, his eyelids slightly closed as he carefully sensed the aura around him …

After a moment, he slowly opened his eyes.

"How is it?" Yu Chi Ming asked.

Xiao Mo Xin's face turned serious as he nodded.

Yu Chi Ming walked to her side: "Is there any way to find it?"

"I can try, but I'll have to wait until night!"

"Alright!" Yu Chi Ming responded as he looked back at the red and swollen eyes of the old lady. He took out a bag of silver and handed it over to her.

The old woman subconsciously retreated, "My lord!" "What are you doing?"

"Here's some silver taels. Take it. In the next few days, go and stay with your relatives. We need to temporarily lock you up here!"

"Something to do with the investigation?" The old woman probed.

"Yes sir!"

The old lady remained silent for a while and then said: "Alright! This humble woman follows the arrangements made by the lord, and only hopes that the adults can find the culprit as soon as possible, so as to seek justice for the dead constables! "

"Definitely!"

The old woman raised her hand again and wiped the tears off her face. "I will pack my things and go to my relatives' house to stay for a few days!"

"Take these silver taels!"

"No …"

"Take it!" Even if you can't spend all of it, you can prepare a good coffin for your son in the future! " Yu Chi Ming placed the money pouch into the old lady's hands.

The old woman's eyes reddened, "Thank you, milord!"

Yu Chi Ming shook his head.

The old woman nodded to them and walked out of the room.

Xiao Mo Xin walked to Yu Chi Ming's side and deeply felt once again that under his cold and hard exterior, there was a soft heart.

"What do we need to prepare for tonight's events?"

"I can handle some trivial things by myself, but …" Xiao Mo Xin looked at Yu Chi Ming: "… Prince! "Are you sure you shouldn't send people to inquire about the daily practices of these yamen runners?"

"This King has ordered his son to go investigate this matter. There should be news about it now!"

Xiao Mo Xin curled his lips. Seems like his line of thinking was above hers.

"Return to the inn first, This King will accompany you here tonight!"

"Alright!"

— —

The two of them returned to the inn, Mo Zi Xuan and the rest had returned.

He followed them directly into the room.

"What was the result?" Yu Chi Ming sat on the side of the table and poured himself a few cups of tea.

"It is just as Prince guessed. The way these yamen runners behave is not very good!" Mo Zi Xuan raised his teacup, and drank the whole cup in one breath. Then, he continued, "However, what this subordinate didn't expect was that Lord Luo's reputation is still pretty good. Other than being a bit perverted, he can also be considered a good parent who serves the common people!"

Xiao Mo Xin scoffed, "Can you even be considered a good parent officer if you forgive this subordinate's lawlessness? If these commoners were not lying with their eyes wide open, they would probably not dare to say anything! "

"En!" Yu Chi Ming agreed.

"…" Mo Zi Xuan, "… When this subordinate investigated, this was the only result! "

"It seems that I have to start from the yamen runners if I want to know more about the situation!" Xiao Mo Xin went straight to the point.

"will send people to follow up on this matter. You just need to take responsibility and pull out that evil ghost!"

Xiao Mo Xin made a 'OK' gesture, then yawned and stood up: "You guys chat later, I'll go back to my room to rest first!"

"Let's rest here!" When she started to move, Yu Chi Ming's voice sounded out at the same time.

Xiao Mo Xin left and paused slightly, thinking that he had heard wrongly.

"Later on, we will act together and live here. It's convenient!" Yu Chi Ming's calm voice leaked out from her lips.

"…" Xiao Mo Xin.

"…" Mo Zi Xuan.

Prince! Isn't this reason a bit too far-fetched?

Xiao Mo Xin was embarrassed for a moment, and regained his senses: "It's not convenient for a man and woman to be alone in a room alone!"

"It's not like it's only one or two times that we're in the same room alone in This King. Moreover, we're familiar with each other after one rebirth. Thinking about it, you have nothing to be shy about!" Yu Chi Ming's expression was cold, his voice was still the same.

It was as if what he was saying at this moment was nothing out of the ordinary.

Xiao Mo Xin almost vomited a mouthful of blood. He was shameless, why did he have to pull her?

"Yu Chi Ming! I am also a daughter of a yellow flower, if these words of yours were to be overheard by others, how am I going to get married in the future? " Xiao Mo Xin grinded his teeth, and really wanted to splash the tea on the table onto his face.

Yu Chi Ming gave her a bland glance, "Who do you think will marry you in this world other than the This King?"

"Damn!" Yu Chi Ming! "What do you mean?" Xiao Mo Xin exploded, making it sound like no one wanted her.

Also, what was his tone? A charity?

"Literally!" Yu Chi Ming stood up, and walked to her front step by step.
