Dong Ming watched as Wu Zuo opened Liu Mo's wrist, only to see that there were already one after another hideous wounds on the tender skin.

Even though he was used to seeing bloody winter nights, his heart trembled violently at this moment.

Just thinking about it, you can feel what a cruel pain this is!

But Zuo seemed to be used to this, and explained expressionlessly:

"After our inspection, these wounds were basically cut by knives. The wounds were not too deep, but they were cut very frequently."

"Furthermore, because the bandaging method was very crude and no painkillers or other painkillers were used, the wound scabbed not only slowly, but also the wound did not grow well."

"This is what you see."

"According to predictions, the two hands combined will have more than thirty cuts."

Dong Ming's breathing stagnated, and he clenched his hands unconsciously.

"Excuse me, are there any other wounds?"

"Other wounds?" Wu Zuo was a little confused.

"Yes. According to the current investigation, Liu Mo is likely to be bitten and bled by a poisonous insect cultivated in the Western Regions, and the wound will appear corrosive." Dong Min explained.

After hearing this, Wu Zuo shook his head: "Sorry, we checked Liu Mo's body for a long time, but there was no such wound as you mentioned."

Dong Ming rubbed his hair irritably: "In that case, I don't know about Mrs. Liu's body..."

"Wait a moment." After Wu Zuo put Liu Mo's body back into the corresponding ice coffin, he took out an ice coffin from an even colder location: "When Liu Mo's body was discovered, it was already swollen, so it was smaller than Liu Mo's body.

It looks a little more miserable."

Dong Ming looked at Liu's body in front of him, with a complicated look in his eyes.

According to the investigation, Mrs. Liu is probably a pitiful woman. But...she turned into a ghost and specialized in capturing human beings and making them into Biluo.

What kind of pain caused this woman to suddenly change her temperament and become so crazy after becoming a water ghost?

Suddenly, a glimmer of light flashed across Dong Ming's eyes.

Although Liu's body was more severely decayed, there were very weird corrosion wounds on his wrists.

Seeing this, Wu Zuo couldn't help but said: "So is this the kind of wound that Lang Jun is looking for?"

"Indeed, the person in charge of the Taiping Tower also felt strange during the inspection at that time. It seemed that some kind of toxin was produced, but the toxin has not been found in Datang."

"If you go by what Lang Jun said just now, it does meet some of the characteristics."

Dong Ming carefully inspected Mrs. Liu's body: "The cause of death was drowning, right?"

"Yes, but after our examination, it was found that Mr. Liu had lost a lot of blood in his body. Although there was also a cause of drowning, the complete paleness when the body was in our hands can be regarded as evidence." Wuzuo said quietly.

…

After leaving the Taiping Tower, Dong Ming took a deep breath, found Liu Ye, and informed him of the discovery of the body.

Liu Ye frowned: "Based on your inference, Mrs. Liu can now conclude that it must be involved with the Chen family. Because there are special corrosive wounds caused by tripang worms on the body."

"But there is no such thing on Liu Mo's side."

"But considering the wound on Liu Mo's wrist, I have reason to suspect that he was also bled!" Dong Ming said solemnly: "It's just that I can't figure it out. According to the situation, the tripang insect is the most efficient method."

"Why... why are there stab wounds on Liu Mo's body instead of corrosion wounds?"

Liu Ye played with the teacup in his hand and seemed to be thinking about the logic.

A moment later:

"For now, there is a possibility!" Liu Ye guessed: "It's not that the Chen family doesn't want to use Tripitaka, but the bite of Tripitaka will cause too much pain. And this kind of pain should be what the child feels.

unbearable."

Dong Ming held a different opinion: "Assuming that this matter is the Chen family's problem from beginning to end, I don't think a person who uses other people's blood would have such a little compassion to care about whether the child is in pain or not."

"Unless... knife wounds heal faster than tripang insects and are easier to hide." Liu Ye looked at Dong Ming: "Through investigation, it is not difficult to find that Mrs. Liu loves her children very much and is not a mean mother.

"

"Such a mother wouldn't be able to bear her child to suffer this kind of torture."

Dong Ming's pupils shrank: "Sixth Master, you mean...the Chen family went behind the Liu family's back and took Liu Mo away?"

"In order to prevent Mr. Liu from noticing, I used a knife to bleed! This way, I only need to bandage it a little to stop the bleeding, which makes it easier to disguise?!"

Liu Ye didn't speak anymore. Obviously, he agreed with this inference.

"Asshole!"

Dong Ming roared angrily, and the table was slapped in half.

"..." Liu Ye opened his mouth, and finally sighed helplessly: "You kid, why did you become so strong all of a sudden?"

Naturally, Dong Ming would not say that this was the power of the dragon and elephant brought by the Zi Zombie Living Corpse.

"Master Liu, I want to visit the Chen family again!"

However, Liu Ye did not immediately agree to Dong Ming's idea.

Looking at Liu Ye sitting there, his face turned pale for a while, as if he was thinking about something, Dong Ming suddenly said angrily:

"Master Liu, why should you be hesitant about this kind of thing!"

"The Soul-Suppressing Department, isn't it a place that upholds justice?!"

Liu Ye sighed, with a look of weakness on his eyebrows:

"Dong Ming, although the Chen family is not the most prosperous family in the Tang Dynasty, they are still powerful!"

"You saw it today too! It was the 70th birthday of the old lady of the Chen family. More than half of the people present were dignitaries!"

"Almost everyone is considered a wealthy family in Chang'an City!"

"So?" Dong Ming sneered: "Our Soul-Suppressing Department is an independent organization established by the Tang Dynasty! If we do that, what's the difference between us and those officials who only know how to bully the weak and fear the strong!"

Liu Ye suddenly became angry and a little angry, and he stood up with a sudden sound:

"With your behavior today, it's impossible for the Chen family not to keep an eye on you. Have you considered the danger to yourself?!"

"What if you miss?!"

"What if you don't find conclusive evidence in the Chen family?!"

"Once the members of the Chen family who are officials report for impeachment, can you, a ninth-grade soul-suppressing guard, be able to shoulder this responsibility?!"

"When the time comes, not even me, not even the Soul Suppression Division can protect you, do you know that?"

Dong Ming lowered his head slightly. He did not refute Liu Ye's words, but Liu Ye could also see that Dong Ming did not look away at all.

Thinking of this, Liu Ye took out a breath and softened his voice:

"Dong Ming, you haven't been in the Soul-Suppressing Division for a long time, I know your pain!"

"You grew up in a slum at a young age, but your parents died among demons. There is still no evidence."

"I know you are feeling bitter!"

"Similarly, I also understand that you can't get sand out of your eyes!"

"But... we have to be realistic! This world... is still a world of relationships after all..."

Dong Ming slowly raised his head. At this moment, he changed from his usual angry appearance.

His eyes were very calm, although it could be seen that that calmness was suppressed with all his strength.

"I understand. Brother, I will go back to sleep first."

Gu Jing's unwavering tone made Dong Ming stand up and leave Liu Ye's room before Liu Ye could give him any more advice.

Liu Ye opened his mouth and finally shook his head helplessly.

However, he was still relieved after all. After all, the Chen family was not the current Dong Ming, nor was it something he could afford to offend now.

Looking at the table broken into two halves, Liu Ye couldn't help but smile bitterly and murmured:

"Dong Ming, why have I...never had such thoughts as you..."

"When I just joined the Soul-Suppressing Department, I was just like you, hating evil as much as I wanted to, and eager for justice, but the result... alas..."

He couldn't tell whether it was envy or guilt, Liu Ye couldn't bear the slightest hint of anger.

After clearing away the table and the tea set fragments on the floor, it was already Haishi, and Liu Ye also took off his official uniform and prepared to go to bed.

Liu Ye, who was lying on the bed, couldn't sleep for the first time in a long time. He stared at the eaves and frowned slightly.

When Dong Ming left the room just now, the look in his eyes made him feel uneasy.

He is Dong Ming's sworn elder brother. On weekdays, because of his ranking in the family, Dong Ming always calls him Liu Ye.

Generally, Dong Ming would call him eldest brother only under very solemn or serious circumstances.

Thinking of this, Liu Ye's pupils shrank and he sat up suddenly.

"Could it be..."

Not caring about getting dressed, Liu Ye simply put on his cloak and hurried to Dong Ming's room.
