Although I feel that it is inappropriate for Xiao Ningxue to examine this terrible bone, but if this girl really has a way to find out the identity of the deceased, it will save a lot of time.

After all, in a situation like this, if the identity of the deceased is not clear, there is a high probability that it will become a case without a head.

After thinking for a while, Xiao Shan nodded, and Xiao Ningxue walked over and squatted down in front of the skeleton.

At this time, in the crowd of onlookers, there was a face that was particularly panicked. This person was none other than Xiao Xiaoyu.

Xiao Xiaoyu stared at the skeleton. Although the clothes on the skeleton had already turned into rags, it was clearly dark blue, and Qin Xing was wearing such a dress before his death.

It seems that the owner of this skeleton is probably Qin Xing.

Although she tied a big rock to Qin Xing's body before sinking the body, as the body rotted or the fish pecked at it, the stone and the bones should have been separated, which caused the bones to be hooked up by the fish.

Although she didn't kill Qin Xing, she threw Qin Xing's body into the lake with her own hands. Qin Xing had a concubine relationship with her and often beat her violently, so once it was found that the body was Qin Xing , then he himself is the biggest suspect.

At this moment, Xiao Xiaoyu panicked a lot. If she knew that she would not have taken out the blood-stained jade pendant, how can she explain it clearly now?
Just as her heart was trembling and she didn't know what to do, Xiao Ningxue had already reached a conclusion.

"Father, Uncle Gao, the owner of this skeleton is Qin Xing.'
"Qin Xing? It's him?" Although Xiao Shan and Gao Tutou were surprised, they didn't have the slightest doubt.

Qin Xing ate, drank, prostituted and gambled, and was domineering in Ji'an City. He didn't know how many people he offended, and it was normal for him to be killed and throw his body away.

After a moment of silence, Xiao Shan said, "Judging from the height of the corpse, it is indeed similar to that of Qin Xing when he was alive." It's Qin Xing, but what other basis is there?"

Xiao Ningxue pointed at the calf of the skeleton, "When I was in Qiganling, Qin Xing was shot by me, Father, Uncle Gao, look, there is obviously a gap in his leg bone.

The small gap on the calf bone was shot out by a bullet. That time when Xiao Ningxue and Xue Ruyun Sai Dongshi were tearing orchids in the jungle, when Qin Xing molested someone, Xiao Ningxue shot him in the calf. Xiao Ningxue did not forget this matter.

Also, when she heard Xiao Yue gossip about Xiao Xiaoyu getting rid of Qin Xing and Qin Xing returned to the capital, she had some doubts in her heart.

How could a crazy gambler abandon his cash cow and leave here?
After listening to Xiao Ningxue's explanation, Gao Butou immediately pulled out his official knife and walked straight towards Xiao Xiaoyu in the crowd.

Xiao Xiaoyu panicked immediately, and hurriedly shrank to leave.

"Stop." Gao Butou stepped forward and grabbed her, "Miss Xiao, please go to the yamen with us and cooperate with the investigation of Qin Xing's death."

Xiao Xiaoyu suppressed the panic in her heart and tried to force a smile.

"What nonsense is Gao Butou talking about? How can Qin Xing die? He has gone back to the capital." Gao Butou sneered.

"Going back to the capital? His bones are already here, so it's the soul who returned to the capital?"

"Besides, whether he has returned to the capital or not, you can ask clearly in a letter. If Miss Xiao dares to lie, you will know the consequences, right?"

Xiao Xiaoyu looked flustered just now, and wanted to escape. Even if she wasn't the murderer, she was still an insider. Taking her back for interrogation would definitely pay off.

Xiao Xiaoyu panicked even more after hearing Gao Butou's words, and struggled desperately.

"I won't go~ You can't arrest people indiscriminately, let me go!"

Catcher Gao didn't let go of her, and seeing so many onlookers, he rolled his eyes and asked them in public.

"Neighbors, tell me when was the last time you saw Qin Xing~ Anyone who can provide useful clues and is willing to testify will be rewarded."

As soon as these words came out, the onlookers rushed to speak.

A few months ago, many people saw Qin Xing coming out of Xueyue Tower, and then went to Baoshi Lake with Xiao Xiaoyu, and no one saw Qin Xing show his face after that.

After listening to everyone's narration, Catcher Gao immediately tied up Xiao Xiaoyu with an iron chain.

"Qin Xing was clearly killed by you, yet he still dares to quibble, go, follow me back to the yamen~"

He was also trying to scare Xiao Xiaoyu. Although some people saw her and Qin Xing coming to Baoshi Lake, no one saw her kill him. In fact, there was no evidence.

But Xiao Xiaoyu had never read a book and didn't understand the law, so he knelt down to Gao Butou after being so frightened. "Gao Butou Mingcha, I really didn't kill Qin Xing~ This matter is like this, listen to me."
Xiao Xiaoyu tearfully told what happened that day, but she concealed the fact that Qin Xing gave her the jade pendant, saying that someone colluded with the Dazhou people to collude with the enemy and betray the country~
After Xiao Ningxue heard Xiao Xiaoyu's narration, her almond eyes narrowed involuntarily.

This Xiao Xiaoyu, there was some truth in what she said, and when she said that she didn't know who killed Qin Xing, she obviously showed a guilty conscience, so even if Qin Xing didn't die by her hand, she definitely knew something.

But it's not good to just interrogate here, let's take it back to the yamen first, so Catcher Gao wrote down the names of the people who provided clues, and escorted Xiao Xiaoyu back to the county guard's mansion.

At this time, Xiao Shulan was shocked when she heard the news in the state pastoral mansion. Not only did she sink a dead body into Baoshi Lake, she ruined her daughter Le Qianqian's innocent groom, and there was also a nanny who knew the inside story~ all of them were killed by her. He swallowed it and threw it into Gem Lake.

At first, I thought it was an accident. After all, the coffin will rot, and the bones inside will also float out.

Later, someone was sent to inquire, and it was said that the skeleton of Qin Xing was found, and she also let out a long breath.

However, her heart soon became suspended again. It was her husband, Le Peiyan, who killed Qin Xing. Le Peiyan colluded with the people of the Zhou Dynasty to collude with the enemy and betray the country.

Thinking of this, Xiao Shulan couldn't sit still anymore, and hurriedly looked for Le Peiyan with her skirt.

During this period of time, Le Peiyan also made friends with many heads of western families. After all, for the sake of profit, there will always be someone who will be wooed by him.

This room, Le Peiyan was drinking tea and chatting in the study with several family members who moved from Xiping City to Ji'an New City, when Xiao Shulan came to find him.

Ever since Xiao Shulan caught Le Peiyan's collaborating and traitorous braid, Le Peiyan obeyed her, apologized to several guests, and left the study.

Xiao Shulan quickly pulled her away to a place where there was no one else, and hurriedly told him.

"Qin Xing's body was exposed, Xiao Xiaoyu was also arrested, what should we do?"

When Le Peiyan heard this, his eyes immediately narrowed into triangles.

"Has she revealed about Yu Pei?"

"Not yet." Xiao Shulan shook her head, "But if the trial continues, there is no guarantee that she will not leak it."

The jade pendant had the character 'Yan' engraved on it, and Xiao Xiaoyu couldn't read it, but he might be able to write it out according to the gourd.

If this is the case, Xiao Wenzhao will definitely suspect Le Peiyan.

Le Peiyan naturally thought of this, and a terrifying murderous intent shot out from his narrowed triangular pupils.

"Then Xiao Xiaoyu can't stay anymore~ We must find a way to get rid of her immediately."

It has to be said that Le Peiyan is good at coaxing. During this period of time, he can be regarded as coaxing out the truth about how the jade pendant he dropped when he killed Qin Xing fell into Xiao Shulan's hands.

That's why when he heard that Xiao Xiaoyu was arrested, he became murderous towards Xiao Xiaoyu.

"Master, let's hurry~ Before the escort comes back, I will deal with her on the way."

Xiao Shulan was also in a hurry, she didn't want to die, and she was also reluctant to part with the present glory and wealth, she wished she could kill Xiao Xiaoyu right away, lest she say something she shouldn't say.

After all, Le Peiyan is a veteran who has been in court for many years, but he is more calm than Xiao Shulan.

"Understood, you go back first, I will settle this matter properly."

"Yes, sir."

After Xiao Shulan left, Le Peiyan summoned a gardener not far away who was tending flowers and plants.

"Master, what do you want to do?" The gardener was holding a small hoe in his hand, his hands and body were covered with mud, and his face was ugly, but when he looked up at Le Peiyan, his eyes were full of rash chills.

He looked ordinary, but his identity was not ordinary at all. He was the killer that Le Peiyan kept by his side. Now he naturally knew why Le Peiyan called him here.

"Hurry up and kill someone." Le Peiyan didn't talk nonsense to him, and ordered straightforwardly.

"Kill who?"

"Xiao Xiaoyu from Xueyuelou ~ you know him."

How can this kind of homeless killer not visit brothels? This killer is also a frequent visitor of Xueyuelou, so he naturally recognizes Xiao Xiaoyu.

"Okay, I'll go right away." The killer nodded immediately, and then looked around vigilantly. Seeing that there was no one around, he quickly took off his mud-stained outer shirt, revealing the black night clothes inside, and then put the mask on Covering his face, he drew out the soft silver sword wrapped around his waist and was about to leave.

Le Peiyan told behind him, "Except for Xiao Xiaoyu, don't hurt anyone else."

Xiao Xiaoyu, a lowly brothel girl, would die if she died, but if she hurt Xiao Shan, then Xiao Wenzhao would definitely fight him to the death~ There is no need for such incidents to happen more.

"Yes, master." The killer nodded and flew away.

On the way to Ji'an New City, Gao Butou escorted Xiao Xiaoyu to the front, Xiao Shan walked in the middle holding Qin Xing's skeleton wrapped in white cloth, Xiao Ningxue helped Xiao Shan carry the autopsy box and followed behind.

It's not close from Baoshi Lake to Ji'an New City. It takes at least half an hour to walk. When a few people came, they didn't ride horses. In addition, people came to watch from time to time on the road, so the speed was very slow.

The hills in the west are undulating, and now they are full of fruit trees. In late autumn, the withered and yellow leaves are blown up by the wind and swirled around.

When passing through the place between the two hills, a sudden gust of cold wind hit, the leaves were flying, and then a black shadow flew out from the dark place, and the long sword pierced Xiao Xiaoyu with a cold light.

Xiao Xiaoyu never dreamed that someone would appear out of nowhere and want to take her life, but at this moment she also immediately understood who was going to kill her.

Xiao Shulan, her good aunt!
She must know who owned the jade pendant that she took away, otherwise she wouldn't have killed her at this time.

It's a pity that she knew it too late at this moment, the long sword gleaming in the killer's hand had already pierced her face.

Although Gao Catcher has some kung fu skills, how can he resist a killer? He wanted to block the sword with his official knife, but found that it was too late.

At this time, Xiao Xiaoyu already felt a chill between her brows, and the tip of the sword touched her skin, and the next thing that was waiting for her was to see Lord Yan.

But at this critical moment, a red shadow surged towards him, blocking the killer's sword with a bang.
