Detective Ghost Empress

Chapter 439: Who was the ghost



Zhai Tianyu, of course, would not dare to treat this matter lightly, the Qin family was not a small family and had years of history behind them, the ancestors of the Qin family lineage had done great contributions to the imperial family, even if he was the Emperor, he could not ignore the death of two members of the Qin family which was why he nodded his head and the solemnly spoke, " Do not fear official Qin this matter will be treated with utmost care and we will definitely find out the culprit behind this double murder."

Only then did Official Qin drop his head and heaved a sigh of relief, but he still looked at Concubine Qin's body with heartache in his eyes, he continued to caress the face of his daughter while Qin Mu Yan patted him on the back while trying to control his sobs as well.

The crowd did not wish to trespass on such an intimate movement, which was why the people slowly walked away the only person who stayed behind was Liu Hui Ying who looked at the body which was being cradled by Official Qin and then turned to look at Witch Mao before she said to her, " Take a closer look at the body and tell me if there is a mark of suffocation.

If not scrape somebody liquid for me in the vessel which you always carry."

Though she did not understand the mechanism which was used to kill these two women. Liu Hui Ying was a bit confused as to why concubine Qin never screamed for help when she was getting killed, it was either because she could not scream or she was in no condition to scream.

It was just her bad luck that Jia Li went to chase after the person who was pretending to be a ghost and she did not have the chance to ask her to run a test on concubine Qin's body in fact —— even if she was to bring the body examination up, official Qin might not believe it which might make the entire situation even more troublesome.

Witch Mao did not seem quite fond of the plan, she did not wish to extract body liquid from a dead body but then she heard Liu Hui Ying say, " I will bring you the hot selling dumplings."

Only then did Witch Mao salute Liu Hui Ying and then said, " Aye, Aye captain!"

Liu Hui Ying looked at the gluttonous ghost and was speechless, sure enough, she attracted all sorts of ghosts. One was a pervert, the other was a drama queen and the third one was a worry wart who did not know what to do about anything unless she was guided properly.

Without paying attention to Witch Mao, Liu Hui Ying returned to her tent. This time no one doubted her since she was with everyone else from start to finish,  what was more no one saw any moments from Liu Hui Ying's tent from start to finish, thus doubting her was no longer an option.

As for Zhai Tianyu, because he needed to search for the culprit who was behind the murder of the Qin family's women, he had no time to go and sleep with Liu Hui Ying, he was obviously looking forward to spending time with her and get closer to her but then again this was much more important which was why he could only put his romantic intentions in the back of his head while trying his best to look for a clue with Yu Lingyun and the rest.

Liu Hui Ying did not bother Zhai Tianyu and went back to her tent but she did not go to sleep instead she waited for the three ghosts to come back, on the other hand, Nanny Gong and Xiao Ai who were waiting beside her, exchanged a look with each other.

Seeing that Liu Hui Ying was not sleeping Nanny Gong thought that she was scared and very patiently and calmly said, " Your majesty there is no need to be scared as such even if there is something evil wandering in the forest with the talismans which are hung up in the tents, it will not be able to enter, why don't you go to sleep?"

When Liu Hui Ying heard Nanny Gong mention the talismans, her lips could not help but twitch, was she talking about those scrappy-looking talismans? They did not even do anything unless the ghost which wanted to enter the tent was on the path of redemption, those talismans were basically useless in the face of evil spirits.

If there was an evil spirit in the forest then this place would need her small back's backing to stay intact.

" I am not scared…I just think that its too dangerous to sleep when something like that is wandering in the forest," Liu Hui Ying knew that the murderer was not a ghost but a human which meant that if she was to go to sleep then she will be the one who will be troubled which was why it was better for her to stay awake.

She did not know who that person was but something told her that this matter was not as easy as it looked.

Making use of an old legend was like reliving it all over again, this either happened when there was someone from the family of the deceased trying to bring justice to the one who wrongfully died or when there was someone who wanted to mask something deep and sinister behind the mask of legend.

The thing was attacking the Qin family members, then did it not mean that the person who will be attacked next would be either Official Qin or Qin Mu Yan?

Liu Hui Ying's eyes flickered as she looked at the father and son duo which was still sitting next to the two corpses and then continued to stare at them for a long time while surveying their surrounding there was nothing next to them but for how long?

Because of the fear that someone might attack Qin's father and son pair, Liu Hui Ying did not dare to sleep but somewhere around when the dawn was approaching, her eyes could not help but turn heavy.

Before she knew it she was sleeping soundly but then she was woken up by a scream, " Hui Ying! Wake up!"

Her eyes snapped open and what she saw was the sharp tip of a knife which was tainted with blood.
