Chapter 9 Find the real culprit

Ci Yuan raised his hand and rubbed the top of my head casually, "Because it's fun!"

I grabbed its hand and threw it away, "Are you kidding me? It's so disgusting. You just touched the body and then you touched my head!"

Ci Yuan's expression was joking, "Disgusting? That would be more fun. How about you come and examine the corpse? I will teach you personally!"

"I don't want it, you can play with it by yourself!" I started to run away, but I was caught by the collar and almost strangled me on the spot.

Ci Yuan carried me back, "I'm still here, where do you want to run? It's your great-grandfather who died like this, and I'm here to do your autopsy!"

I acted unconscionably and pretended not to care about the real murderer, "Can I say that I don't want to know how my great-grandfather died? After all, people can't be resurrected after death."

Ci Yuan raised his hand and knocked on my forehead, "You little liar, your eyes are rolling around. Do you dare to deny that I am blind?"

I stared at it with wide eyes, and even forgot to raise my hand to rub the painful forehead because it was so weird now.

Even though his tone was gentler than usual, and his attitude was so intimate, people who didn't know better thought we were having a love affair in the mourning hall.

It finally realized something was wrong, and explained with a slightly embarrassed expression, "You acted coquettishly with me first, and then I teased you!"

I lowered my head and retorted in an embarrassed voice, "I didn't mean to do it. How come your majestic dragon's eyes are smaller than a needle nose?"

"Ahem..." It cleared its throat and unnaturally changed the subject, "Let's stop this matter and follow me to conduct an autopsy!"

It pointed to the place where the corpse had been eaten, "Judging from the teeth marks and the smell left behind, it must be Huangpizi who did it!"

This is the first time I heard the word, "Huangpizi? What is that?"

Ci Yuan looked at me like I was an idiot, "It's just that fart thing that smells so bad. How come you don't even know this?"

I thought about it and said, "You're not talking about the weasel, are you? He's the one who gave the chicken a bad New Year greeting in the postscript!"

Ci Yuan groaned, "It seems to have such a name, but in addition, there are also traces and breath left by rats!"

I looked up at Ci Yuan, avoiding the horrific body he was pointing at, "You mean, there are two murderers?"

Ci Yuan shook his head, "Perhaps more than that. Currently I have only found these two types, but they are enough to clear my suspicion!"

I was puzzled, "But why did Huang Pizi and Mouse kill Grandpa?"

Ci Yuan took out a handkerchief from somewhere and wiped his hands carefully, "I am not familiar with that old immortal, how could you know?"

Not to mention, his elegant posture looks very much like a handsome young man in movies and TV shows, if the diagonal horns on his head were removed.

While I was thinking about it, I heard it speak again, "I'll give you a quarter of an hour to clarify. I don't care about reputation, but I won't take the blame for those beasts either!"

Speaking of which, it's all my fault. If I hadn't told my dad that it threatened Grandpa, it wouldn't have become a suspect. I should have clarified it.

I left this sentence and it disappeared without a trace. Because it is so rare and strange, I was still shocked and stunned that it disappeared in such a sudden way.

"Scoff..." A scoff came out of thin air, and it was obvious that Ci Yuan saw the joke again, but you can't blame me, who made this too magical!

I quickly went to find my dad, told him the results of Ci Yuan's autopsy, and asked him if he knew whether my great-grandfather had offended other monsters.

My dad thought for a moment and shook his head, "I don't know much about this. He never mentioned it. I'll ask your grandpa after the funeral arrangements are made."

My grandfather still doesn’t know about my great-grandfather, so my father sent him to a nursing home to recuperate on the pretext of recuperating his health.

As a woman and a junior, I couldn't participate in many things, so I didn't say much to him, "Okay, I'll go back to my room then!"

As soon as I turned around, my dad stopped me, "Wait a minute!"

I turned around and looked at him doubtfully, "Is there anything else?"

My dad's expression was very unnatural, "What did that monster... do to you?"

You have sacrificed yourself for so many days before you thought of caring about me, but I don’t need it anymore. “What do you think it will do to me?”

My dad's face was ugly, but he rarely got angry at me. He even pretended to comfort me, "Luan Luan, I've wronged you."

I know very well what kind of person he is, so I will not be easily fooled. "I accept my fate. Who made me commit evil in my previous life and become your daughter in this life?"

My dad let out a long sigh and said in a helpless tone, "Luanluan, we are biological father and daughter. Do we have to be tit-for-tat like this?"

I don’t want to play the role of father-daughter love with him, “You shouldn’t ask me this, but ask my biological mother, if you can find her!”

I have no impression of my mother because when I was two years old, my father let his mistress enter the house with his illegitimate child and forced my mother to divorce.

My father never mentioned my mother, nor did he let us. Everything about my mother was told to me by my brother, who was already seven years old at the time and remembered many things.

My mother was afraid that my stepmother would abuse us, so she wanted to take my brother and me away after the divorce, but my father refused to agree, and the two of us even started a custody lawsuit.

At first, my mother would come to see us, but every time she came, she would be ridiculed by the mistress, and she gradually stopped coming, and later her whereabouts were unknown.

When I thought of my mother, I hated my father and didn't want to continue talking to him. I was afraid of starting a quarrel, so I strode away with his complicated expression.
