3406 Why Don’t You Investigate It?
“Where should we go to have fun?” Song Qingling asked. She was full of curiosity about this world, but there were many things they could only observe and not touch or achieve, so she felt that it was a shame.
“I don’t know. Let’s just walk around nearby! If you want to go somewhere else, go on your own,” said Leng Xiaoyao.
“Then I’ll just follow you and wander around!” Song Qingling said. They went out every night and had seen a lot of things. Today, they decided to follow Leng Xiaoyao around.
Suddenly, Qin Miao and Song Qingling felt the presence of a soul not far away.
“There’s a soul. It just died, and it’s resentful,” said Qin Miao.
Generally, those who became ghosts after death had obsessions or died unjustly. Those who had a normal death didn’t usually become ghosts.
“Lead the way. Let’s go have a look,” Leng Xiaoyao also wanted to investigate. To avoid these two ghosts from attacking the new ghost upon seeing it, Leng Xiaoyao reminded them. “Don’t eat the other ghost right away. Ask for the reason first. If you can handle it, then resolve the issue and let the other ghost reincarnate. I’m not stopping you from eating ghosts, but only evil ghosts can be eaten.”
“Okay, we won’t do what you don’t allow us to do.” Qin Miao and Song Qingling agreed. With the chaotic power provided by Li Mochen for cultivation, they didn’t need to eat ghosts to enhance their skills. Anyway, eating ghosts wasn’t faster than absorbing chaotic power.
The new ghost wasn’t far away, so Leng Xiaoyao quickly arrived at the scene. There were many people on the street.
The female ghost stood outside the crowd, staring at a man and a woman in the crowd with extreme hatred. The man and woman were kneeling beside a corpse in the crowd, crying sadly.
“Sister, why did you have to do this?” The woman cried.
“Qin, how could you leave me behind? We were going to get married in a month!” The man cried.
The female ghost roared angrily. “You two despicable people, you killed me. Why are you acting sad…”
Hearing that, Leng Xiaoyao understood what had happened.
Presumably, the female ghost’s fiancé had an affair with her sister and was discovered. They decided to kill her to keep her quiet.
Suddenly, the female ghost felt a threat approaching and looked up to see Qin Miao and Song Qingling.
Although she was a new ghost and didn’t understand the hierarchy of ghosts, she knew that they were also ghosts and very powerful. Subconsciously, the female ghost tried to escape.
However, she was stopped by Song Qingling after taking only a few steps.
“W-What do you want to do?” Yuqin asked in fear.
“Don’t be nervous. I won’t hurt you. I just want to know what has happened. She…” Song Qingling pointed to Leng Xiaoyao. “If you were murdered, she can help you clear your name.”
When Song Qingling pointed to Leng Xiaoyao, Leng Xiaoyao also looked at Yu Qin and nodded to show that she could see her.
Because it was a public place, she couldn’t directly talk to Yu Qin.
Yu Qin was very surprised. She couldn’t believe that humans could really see ghosts.
Although Yuqin didn’t believe it, because of her intense hatred, as long as there was a glimmer of hope for revenge, she didn’t want to miss it.
She didn’t think that the result could be worse.
Therefore, Yu Qin followed Song Qingling to Leng Xiaoyao. Leng Xiaoyao asked, “What’s going on?”
Leng Xiaoyao asked that question, but no one thought it was strange, because everyone who was watching would ask the same thing.
“This man is called Cheng Qi. He is my fiancé. The woman is named Yu Xue, my half-sister. These two people hooked up with each other behind my back. Yu Xue is even pregnant. I only found out about this today, then I called them both to my company building on the 15th floor. I wanted to question them and get to the bottom of things before making a decision, but I didn’t expect them to be so heartless as to kill me.”
“They injected me with drugs to make it seem like I had a drug addiction and committed suicide. Before I died, they confessed everything. They had been together for a long time. Yu Xue was even pregnant. They never intended for me to live because they wanted to steal my company and my properties. Although it’s just a small company, it’s worth over ten million yuan. I have a house nearby worth five million yuan. It’s a huge sum for them who have nothing.”
“After they injected me, they pushed me out of the window when I went crazy. I never did anything to them. Why did they do that to me…”
Upon hearing Yu Qin’s statement, Leng Xiaoyao was also angry.
“If you want to help me, you can go to my office. I have a camera installed there. As long as you get the footage, they will be proven guilty of murder,” Yu Qin said emotionally. She had been desperate and thought that she could only die with regret, but she didn’t expect to meet someone who could see her and give her hope of clearing her name.
Leng Xiaoyao nodded. It would be much more convenient this way.
At this time, the police arrived and asked what was going on. Yu Xue said, “I’m the deceased’s sister. My sister called me suddenly and said she was feeling very uncomfortable, so I rushed over. I met my sister’s fiancé downstairs. We went upstairs together to see my sister. When we arrived, my sister had already climbed to the window and looked very painful. We didn’t dare to act rashly and could only try to persuade her to get down. We didn’t want to report to the police recklessly. We were afraid of angering my sister and causing her to do something foolish.”
“Under our questioning, my sister told us that she had become addicted to drugs, so she was in a lot of pain and wanted to end her life. No matter how we begged her, she wouldn’t listen and just jumped down. I-It broke my heart…”
Yu Xue told the story emotionally and reasonably. No one was suspicious of her.
“Qin, why did you leave me behind? I love you so much. We were about to get married!” Cheng Qi looked extremely sad.
“Please accept our condolences! Contact the funeral parlor to take the body away,” the police said without any intention of investigating further.
Leng Xiaoyao was dissatisfied. She immediately walked into the crowd. “Why aren’t you investigating? You’re just taking the body away without even examining the scene?”
Upon hearing that, Cheng Qi and Yu Xue’s faces stiffened. The police officer was also displeased. “What is there to investigate? The deceased’s fiancé and sister have explained everything clearly.”
“Do you just believe everything they say? I’m not saying they have a problem, but according to the procedures, you must investigate the scene. If everyone handles cases like you do, won’t there be wrongful convictions everywhere?” Leng Xiaoyao questioned.
