Chapter 106: Outlaws
Yun Jingyi was indeed very depressed. With his lightness skills, it was easily possible for him to catch up with the carriage, but he did not expect that the carriage was empty!

"What? Are you hurt?"

Shen Fengyu looked Yun Jingyi up and down, left and right, worry written all over his face.

Yun Jingyi's face suddenly turned red and his ears became hot when she looked at him like this. This was the first time that a strange woman had shown him such concern.

Ever since he became a disciple of the Tianqing Sect and became a respected martial arts leader in the world, no one would worry about whether he would get hurt.

Because in the eyes of outsiders, the three words "Yun Jingyi" represent the strongest. The price of becoming famous at a young age is that while being deified, one also loses the emotions of ordinary people.

But now there is someone who treats him as an ordinary person, and even observes his every move and every little expression.

"No, but I didn't find any clues."

Hearing Yun Jingyi's words, Shen Fengyu felt relieved and said comfortingly:
"The murderer must be a cunning person to dare to do this. Mr. Yun, don't worry about it."

Yun Qianyi glanced at them, put her arms around Jun Yanci's waist, sat on his lap, dangling her feet in the air, and tapping her index finger lightly on the table.

An empty carriage? Even if it was empty, the clue would not be broken.

"Where is the carriage?" Yun Qianyi asked.

Yun Jingyi came over, looked at the two people hugging each other with hesitation, and then said:

"Several soldiers from the Shen family army have returned on horseback and will be here soon."

The people who were originally waiting for the carriage did not expect that the first person to arrive was the county magistrate.

The magistrate was extremely clumsy when he got off the car. He seemed to be in a hurry, but due to his fat body, he was very tired and could not move faster even if he wanted to.

His huge body caused him to be out of breath after taking two steps, but what was heavier than his heavy breathing was his heart.

Everyone knows that the Crown Prince of the Eastern Jin Dynasty has always been moody and has an unstable temperament.

This living devil beheaded dozens of officials at Bitong Academy a few days ago, all of whom were high-ranking officials in the court.

This feat has spread throughout the officialdom of the Eastern Jin Dynasty and is chilling.

He is just a small county magistrate, not even a well-known figure in the capital, how can he be killed at will? !
And there is General Shen, who is invincible on the battlefield in the southern border. I think he is also a decisive and ruthless person.

I really don't know what kind of luck I have that these two huge Buddhas appear here, and I am offended by these blind idiots.

I heard there is a stunningly beautiful woman, who is most likely the daughter of Prime Minister Yun.

The more he thought about it, the more frightened he became. He saw the county magistrate, with a full stomach, kneeling down with difficulty and bowing to Jun Yanci and the others, saying:

"Your subordinate, Xia Xing, pays respect to the Crown Prince, Your Highness, General Shen."

After a long while, no sound was heard, and County Magistrate Xia did not even dare to raise his head.

"Mr. Xia is so powerful that your officers even threatened to put His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and General Shen in jail."

After Xuan Liu finished speaking indifferently, Yun Jingyi's eyes suddenly turned cold and he looked at the officials.

County Magistrate Xia smiled apologetically and tried to straighten himself up, his eyes and brows full of timidity.

"No, no, how dare I offend my superiors? This is all a misunderstanding. Your Highness, General Shen, those ignorant brats have been severely punished by me and have all been dismissed! I will never have the chance to offend you again."

Jun Yanci's eyebrows remained unchanged, as indifferent as water.

Such a person is indeed unfit to be an official.

As the saying goes, one should do his job well. As an official, if he is lazy and idle while receiving a salary from the court, and does not serve the people or protect the safety of the city, he is derelict in his duty. In this case, it is a good thing to dismiss them from their posts.

"Xia County Magistrate, let's solve the case first."

Seeing Jun Yanci's slightly raised chin, County Magistrate Xia immediately ordered the coroner to come in, then stretched out his hand and was helped up by the lawyer beside him.

In the quiet restaurant lobby, the coroner's surprised voice could be clearly heard.

Even the coroner who had performed autopsies on hundreds of people had never seen a victim with such a tragic death. Moreover, judging from the age of the victim's skeleton and body, he was still a child.

The coroner took a deep breath and began to record seriously.

After a moment, as the coroner spoke, everyone's faces became increasingly serious.

"There were 27 fractures all over his body, and his face was sunken, which seemed like he was hit repeatedly by a heavy object hundreds of times. However, the cause of death was suffocation. There was dirt on his fingernails, which means he was buried underground while still breathing."

Yun Qianyi's palms were very warm, and she patiently warmed Jun Yanci's hands.

But my heart has already turned cold.

She couldn't imagine what kind of despair the child had gone through before eventually dying.

Obviously, at the last moment, he did not give up the idea of ​​​​surviving. Unfortunately, his breath had been covered by the mud, and he could only wait for death to come in excruciating pain.

"Xiao Luo has been in school these days, taking exams. How could this happen?"

The shopkeeper was puzzled. The school was the safest place and there were teachers watching over it, so how could something go wrong?
County Magistrate Xia ignored the shopkeeper and instead said to Jun Yanci and the others:

"Your Highness, General Shen, how can I trouble you to worry about such a small case? Please don't delay your important matter. I will definitely catch the murderer, so you can rest assured."

Yun Qianyi felt that County Magistrate Xia's words were meant to drive them away, and he even heard the tone of "they shouldn't meddle in other people's business".

Then, a dark light flashed in those fox eyes, and Yun Qianyi smiled at Jun Yanci and suddenly said:
“The food here is good.”

This sentence didn't make sense, but Jun Yanci immediately understood what she meant.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince picked up the charming woman in his arms, carefully put her feet on the ground, then stood up and held her hand.

The god-like beauty carries with it a fierce aura. Although the alpine snow lotus is beautiful, it is also freezing cold.

At this time, he even directly threatened County Magistrate Xia.

"Xia County Magistrate, I give you one hour to summon all the people involved in this case to the county government. I want to personally try this case."

"I think Magistrate Xia has also seen that I am indeed carrying out the emperor's orders. Since time is tight, this case must be concluded before dawn tomorrow."

Jun Yanci's words were delivered in a tone that brooked no rejection. There was no ups and downs in his voice, but it made people inexplicably fearful.

"Yes, sir, I will do it immediately."

County Magistrate Xia winked at his legal advisor frantically, and the latter immediately rode back to the county government office.

At this moment, several soldiers from the Shen family army drove the empty carriage back to the door of the restaurant.

"Ayan, look."

Yun Qianyi stopped and pointed behind him.

That carriage was surprisingly similar to Magistrate Xia's. If you didn't look carefully, you would think they were the same carriage.

It seems that this case is far from as simple as imagined.
