Chapter 612: Headless Yaksha (9)

Qiao An said calmly.

Upon hearing this, the fourth wife seemed to feel a little relieved. After thinking for a while, she decided to take Wu Yuyao with her.

When she noticed Ling'er beside Qiao An, the fourth wife looked at her unexpectedly.

Ling'er explained that she was here to deliver midnight snacks to the fifth wife.

The fifth wife was scared alone and kept her in the room for a while. Unexpectedly, before the two of them could say a few words, something happened again.

The second wife didn't think much about Ling'er's explanation. The fifth wife didn't look like she had a daughter, and the maids around her couldn't serve her well, so it was understandable that Ling'er was brave enough.

It took them ten minutes before they arrived at the yard where the third wife lived.

This is different from the ones that are favored and the ones that are not favored. Because the third wife is the concubine who has the most children, she lives in the best yard besides the wife and the eldest wife.

A person with a single house is not like Qiao An, the fifth wife, who has to live in the same yard with the unpopular fourth wife and daughter.

When Joan and the others arrived, the yard was already full of people.

A group of people stood in the yard and pointed at the brightly lit bedroom.

"I heard that the third wife is dead, is that true?"

"How come you say it's gone if you're alone!"

"I heard that he was murdered, but I don't know who was so cruel to attack the third wife!"

"The murderer who killed the master has not been caught yet. Why did even the third wife have an accident? Could it be that the same murderer did it!"

"Maybe it's really the same murderer. It's impossible for two murderers to appear in the mansion."

"What are you doing here? Get back to work, don't come to Wutongyuan for no reason!" Mrs. Bai brought a middle-aged woman in her forties with a woman's head combed from the third wife's house.

The middle-aged woman who was just talking.

Mrs. Bai didn't know what she saw inside, and she seemed to be extremely frightened and her body was a little shaking.

Wu Zixiao, who was beside Mrs. Bai, looked bad, but he still carefully supported Mrs. Bai.

This middle-aged woman is Wang’s mother next to her wife Bai.

Wang's mother is Bai's confidant. She only obeyed the orders of Bai's one person, and even the butler Wu Yong could not command her to do things.

"Madam." The butler Wu Yong walked respectfully to Bai's side and waited.

"Have you notified the security team?" Mrs. Bai coughed lightly, her face pale as snow.

"It has been notified that Captain Zhou should arrive soon." The butler replied.

Mrs. Bai nodded, "Where is the eldest lady, why don't she come and see if something big happened?"

Except for the eldest wife, several concubines came and stood aside in a row.

"The eldest lady said that she still wants to keep a watch for the master, so she won't come." The butler carefully looked up at Mrs. Bai.

Fortunately, Mrs. Bai was not angry.

"Follow her, you guys will go to the mourning hall to continue to guard the master. The house is not peaceful, so don't run around if you have nothing to do."

Mrs. Bai looked at the concubines and said tiredly.

"Yes, madam."

Qiao An: So what is she here to do? She is not allowed to enter the murder scene. Isn’t this trip in vain?

Mrs. Bai did not stay for long. After giving the order, Wu Zixiao and Wang's mother helped her leave the third wife's Wutongyuan.

The butler Wu Yong and a few servants stayed in Wutongyuan to guard the scene, preventing people from entering and leaving at will.

After the wife left, several concubines and wives also dispersed.

"Fifth sister, let's go there together." The fourth wife said to Qiao An.

"I want to go to the cottage first, sister, let's go first."

Qiao An: Go with you, how could I sneak into the third wife’s room and check the situation of the murder scene?

"Okay, sister, please move faster. It's better to find a little girl to accompany you. It's too unsafe to be alone at this time." After a reminder, the fourth wife rushed to the mourning hall with her daughter.

Qiao Xing looked like he left, and then took advantage of the butler's inattention and stole into the third wife's room.

In the third wife's room, a corpse was sitting upright in front of the dressing mirror, and the head of the corpse disappeared.

Blood flowed down the third wife's neck, dyeing her white clothes red. This picture looked very cunning.

Qiao An used his mental power to check the third wife's room, then checked the body and left.

After Qiao An left, two more people entered the third wife's room one after another, and these two were also spiritual masters.

After they found each other, they did not act very surprised.

Obviously they had long guessed that there would be a spiritual master here to investigate.

The two of them cooperated to investigate the entire room tacitly, and then simply examined the corpse.

After doing all this, the two disappeared into the vast night.

When Qiao An returned to the mourning hall, Zhou Xiong had already rushed to the Wu Mansion with his men.

Zhou Xiong was very surprised that Wu's family had another murder case so soon.

Despite the accident, he still brought the forensic doctor and security team into the room where the third wife was killed to investigate.

After seeing the body of the third wife, Zhou Xiong asked everyone in the Wu family to cooperate in recording a confession.

Mrs. Bai agreed to Zhou Xiong’s request.

With Mrs. Bai's instructions, no one dared not to cooperate. The Wu family told Zhou Xiong everything he had done after leaving the mourning hall.

Because I was going to keep a soul tonight, most people in the mansion did not fall asleep.

Many people are also accompanied by others, and only a very small number of people are alone.

In the end, there were only twelve people who were listed separately and there were no absentee certificates.

The Wu family is a big family, with about 40 servants in the family.

Most of these twelve were left alone at that time, and of course there were also masters among them.

For example, the eldest wife, the sixth wife, and the seventh lady.

Miss Seven has always been the little transparent person at home, because she is only twelve years old and no one will regard her as the murderer.

But the eldest wife and the sixth wife became the main doubters.

Especially Wu Yuting, the daughter of the third wife, insisted that the eldest wife was the one who killed the third wife.

"It's you! You must have killed my mother! I want you to pay my mother's life!" Wu Yuting suddenly snatched the pistol from Zhou Xiong's waist and wanted to shoot at the third wife.

Fortunately, the people around her reacted quickly and grabbed Wu Yuting's hand, forcing her to point the gun up.

"Miss Four, what evidence do you have to prove that I killed the third wife? I have no grudges and resentment with the third wife. What should I do to kill her?"

The eldest lady didn't expect Wu Yuting to react so much, and was shocked. When she spoke, she patted her heart with a look of shock.

"Yu Ting, it's too unruly to put down your gun!" Mrs. Bai was also frightened and slapped her forehead and shouted loudly.

At this time, Wu Zirong had already snatched the gun and returned it to Zhou Xiong.

"Miss Yuting, I know you are sad and anxious to find the murderer who killed the third wife to avenge the third wife.

But the murderer is not sure yet. You can't just think that she killed someone just because the eldest wife said that the third wife was suspicious."
